Nikki Haley tweeted Tuesday morning that she was going to spend her snow day binge-watching “The Americans,” FX’s popular show about Russian sleeper agents living in the United States.
“We are definitely not in SC anymore!” the United States’ Ambassador to the United Nations wrote. “A great day to binge watch The Americans.”

Naturally, Keith Olbermann and the rest of the resistance didn’t take too kindly to her choice of words.
Spoiler alert. It’s a documentary about Trump, Flynn, Sessions, Page, and Manafort. https://t.co/kd5gQ2Jdl5

@nikkihaley You do know that The Americans is about Russians secretly running covert ops in the United States, right?

@nikkihaley I’m already watching it. Live. In the White House.

@nikkihaley totally! and when you say watch “The Americans”, you mean Flynn, Sessions, Kushner, and Mr. Trumpsky, right?

@nikkihaley Americans is a good show but imagine how much better it would be if they incorporated Microwaves into the plot!

@nikkihaley No need to watch @TheAmericansFX. As a member of this cabinet, you’re living it. #treason

@nikkihaley For what it’s worth, she tweeted about music & TV shows a lot when she was governor of SC, too. Probably means nothing.
