One MSNBC guest claimed on Saturday that calls for prayer after the tragic school shooting that unfolded just days earlier were &#8220;a form of idolatry&#8221; and &#8220;theological malpractice,&#8221; arguing that unless people were also willing to go after gun manufacturers, their prayers meant nothing.
Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones, a Democrat, joined MSNBC host Ali Velshi to discuss the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, MN — and he blamed Republican lawmakers and guns for the tragic shooting.

After a brief discussion about the potential role played by violent video games, Velshi pivoted to blame the guns. &#8220;There are people who play video games all over the world, and nobody has the problem the way we have it in the United States. So it might actually be about the guns.&#8221;
&#8220;I mean, that’s exactly it. And, you know, I want to take it a step further and say that — I want to bring theology into this because you have all these people who want to give thoughts and prayers after a shooting, but I was a minister and that is a form of theological malpractice,&#8221; Jones cut straight to the point. &#8220;When you pray for something that you have the power to change — there’s an African proverb that says, when you pray, you move your hands and feet. You know, what we’re seeing is a form of idolatry, where we’re willing to worship the lives of our children to appease the prophets of the gun industry.&#8221;
Jones went on to attack Republicans over a Tennessee law, saying, &#8220;After the mass shooting at the Covenant School, the only law Republicans passed that year was to protect gun manufacturers from litigation. That’s what they did after children were killed in a school. It is cruel, it is shameful, it’s immoral, and it is something that is going to be a dark stain on American history, that we’ve allowed this to go on for so long unchallenged. And we have the power to change things.&#8221;
&#8220;And I would say to my colleagues who serve in government bodies, that we —Keep your thoughts and prayers, keep your tweets,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;If you wanna address gun violence, you don’t need a tweet, what you need is a mirror. You have the power to change things. You have the power to take action. Now is the time, until it’s your child, because sooner or later it’s gonna hit home. And then it’ll be too late.&#8221;
Other Democrats — from former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki to Minneapolis Mayor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/minneapolis-mayor-trashes-people-for-offering-thoughts-and-prayers-after-shooting">Jacob Frey</a> — took a similar tone after the shooting, arguing that calls for prayer were empty without gun control measures.
Press Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/karoline-leavitt-destroys-jen-psaki-for-mocking-the-power-of-prayer">Karoline Leavitt</a> pushed back, saying that such criticisms were demeaning to the millions of Americans who believe in the power of prayer — and a number pointed out that Republicans have proposed solutions to gun violence that would make schools harder targets, but that Democrats have repeatedly made it clear they will not consider such ideas.

President Donald Trump said Friday that MSNBC is changing its name because they are &#8220;ashamed&#8221; of how bad the channel has become.
Trump ripped the left-leaning channel, which has attacked him relentlessly for years, during an impromptu tour of The People&#8217;s House, a newer museum and gift shop across the street from the White House.
&#8220;Then you turn to CNN, which is fake news, and nobody watches it, or MSDNC, MSNBC, they changed their name now because they were so bad,&#8221; Trump told reporters. &#8220;They&#8217;re the worst, owned by Comcast, run by a guy named Brian Roberts who doesn&#8217;t have a clue. He&#8217;s terrible, terrible manager.&#8221;

&#8220;But they&#8217;re not, I don&#8217;t think, selling it,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;They&#8217;re changing the name because they&#8217;re ashamed of it, and they&#8217;re disassociating it from NBC, which is also fake news, you know. They should be ashamed of that too &#8230; NBC is run terribly by Con-cast. I call it Con-cast cause it&#8217;s whole con,&#8221; the president said.
MSNBC is being forced to undergo a rebrand stripping the cable channel of its name and changing it to MS NOW, short for My Source News Opinion World. The channel will also lose NBC&#8217;s iconic peacock symbol.
Over the last decade, MSNBC has become known for histrionics over Trump from its leftist hosts and guests. Talking heads regularly compare Trump to Hitler.

&#8220;There is no difference from what Donald Trump is preaching, from what Adolf Hitler preached in the early &#8217;30s. Let&#8217;s just say it once and for all,&#8221; Donny Deutsch <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2020/09/23/msnbcs_donny_deutsch_what_is_the_difference_between_trump_and_hitler_im_not_saying_theres_a_holocaust.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com">said</a> in 2020.
Last year, a Democratic strategist went on MSNBC and <a href="https://www.mediaite.com/media/tv/msnbc-guest-says-america-created-nazi-germany-trashes-racist-sexist-pope-francis-and-authoritarian-weasel-trump-in-wild-interview/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">called</a> Trump &#8220;exactly like Mussolini, exactly like Hitler,&#8221; and a &#8220;fascist, authoritarian weasel.&#8221;
Earlier this week, Trump also slammed MSNBC on Truth Social, writing in all caps that the channel is &#8220;doing so poorly in the ratings that they are looking to change their name in order to get away from the stench of their fake news product.&#8221;
Trump said Comcast&#8217;s &#8220;weak and ineffective&#8221; and &#8220;dopey&#8221; owner is &#8220;hopelessly and aimlessly flailing in the wind in an attempt to disassociate itself from the garbage that they created!&#8221;
&#8220;SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115064840755804065">wrote</a>. &#8220;MSNBC IS A FAILURE BY ANY NAME!!!&#8221;
In his comments Friday, Trump also referenced the $8 billion merger of CBS&#8217; parent company Paramount with Skydance Media, run by David Ellison, who Trump called &#8220;a great person that I know very well.&#8221;
&#8220;A great man, actually, just bought CBS, and I think he&#8217;s going to do the right thing with it,&#8221; Trump said.
Trump recently won a $16 million settlement in his lawsuit claiming CBS deceptively edited its &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; interview with Kamala Harris to make her look better.
The president offered a rare bit of optimism for the changing media landscape.
&#8220;But a lot of fake news. I think the news is getting better. They&#8217;re learning that they have no credibility,&#8221; Trump said.

The Left-wing cable news network MSNBC will soon be changing its name. It will also soon be wearing a false beard and a putty nose in an attempt to disguise the fact it’s still the same old crap geyser of socialist lunacy. The name change comes as MSNBC prepares to break away from NBC News, and become part of a group of more obscure networks that will include the Golf Channel, Oxygen, the Sicilian Mafia, and several Mexican Drug Cartels.
From then on, MSNBC will be known as MS-NOW with the letters standing for My Source News Opinion World, signaling that this will be the go-to network for people who can’t form complete sentences. 
To come up with the name change, MSNBC Executives consulted branding experts at the marketing agency of Blundering, Wakoff and Shmoe, who have launched such famous brands as New Coke and McPizza as well as running the ad campaign: “Blockbuster Video, The Unspooling Face of Tomorrow.”
Agency leader Prodigious Wakoff recently spoke of the MS-NOW name change to a gathering of former CEO’s at the San Diego Former CEO Home and Soup Kitchen. Wakoff told the gathering, “We wanted to come up with a new name that sounded like a cross between a 1980’s PC operating system and a fire alarm in a clinic treating progressive diseases. That way, we could communicate MS-NOW’s exciting mission of transforming outmoded ideas into a future of crippling decline. MS-NOW preserves the network’s core identity while allowing NBC News to quietly scuttle off into the darkness, pretending they never had anything to do with this horrific crap fest.” 
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1244?elementPosition=0&amp;row=2&amp;rowHeadline=Latest+Episodes&amp;rowType=Horizontal+Show+Episodes+Carousel">WATCH: The Andrew Klavan Show</a></h3>
Not everyone is happy with the changes coming to the leftist network. For instance, Joy Reid’s show has been canceled, leaving Reid to continue her unique brand of commentary at more welcoming venues like homeless encampments and padded cells. In a recent rant on an imaginary podcast that was really just her standing alone and screaming into the bathroom mirror, Ms. Reid said, “Canceling my show was an obvious attempt by the white establishment to silence strong black women who stand up fearlessly for psychopathic distortion in the service of complete ignorance. The fact is, the white man stole all his ideas from advanced black civilizations of the past like the nation of Wakanda, because the white man has never invented anything himself, except advanced black civilizations of the past like the nation of Wakanda, which, okay, was totally the figment of some white guy’s imagination. But other than that, everything was invented by the black people in Wakanda.”
But while MSNBC will be losing its status as the sister station of a major broadcast news network, it will otherwise not be sinking any lower because that would violate the laws of physics. So, for example, after the network changes its name, it will still feature Rachel Maddow, though she will also be changing her name and will now call herself Bret Baier in the hope someone will take her seriously.
Ms. Baier-nee-Maddow recently commented on the changes at MS-NBC on a media podcast called “Former News Networks and Whatever Happened to Them.” Ms. Baier-Maddow said, “MS-NBC is needed MS-NOW more than MS-EVER. Donald Trump represents a fundamental threat to Democracy not to mention a threat to South American gangsters, Islamic terrorists, teacher union pedophiles, dead voters and incarcerated minority males who are presumed innocent and should therefore be set free to kill again. And when I say not to mention all that, it’s because I plan not to mention any of it when I talk about the threat to Democracy Donald Trump represents in my imagination, a beautiful fairyland where John Brennan and Adam Schiff eternally walk hand in hand through a dreamlike field of wildflowers and lies. We commentators on the Left are running out of time, as well as evidence and ideas, and we need to make sure our voices are heard by our audience above the noise of their irrational gibbering and howling.”
Network Executives say the new MS-NOW name should be in place sometime between the end of this year and the moment shortly thereafter when the network disappears completely from our TV screens as well as our collective memories.

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough waded into the ongoing spat that began with Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and Fox News anchor Dana Perino over the governor&#8217;s recent attempts to mimic and mock President Donald Trump&#8217;s social media posts via X.
Scarborough echoed Perino&#8217;s sentiments during Wednesday&#8217;s broadcast, referring to Newsom&#8217;s efforts as &#8220;embarrassing.&#8221; The California governor had made a series of posts on X attacking Trump and other Republicans in all capital letters, including calling them made-up nicknames.

&#8220;You can see the Democrats are trying to find their footing, and it’s quite embarrassing, actually. I mean, Gavin Newsom. I mean, have you seen what he’s doing online? And it’s like, ugh, just take a deep breath. Don&#8217;t try to turn the ship 180 degrees in one — they don’t know what to do,&#8221; Scarborough observed.
&#8220;I have a good idea. Instead of trying to school Donald Trump, talk into the camera about affordability,&#8221; he suggested. &#8220;Talk about making groceries more affordable. Talk about what you&#8217;re going to do for housing. Talk about what you&#8217;re going to do for energy prices that continue to go up.&#8221;
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dana-perino-warns-gavin-newsom-to-avoid-cringey-x-presence-and-he-doubles-down-instead" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Perino responded</a> to the posts — made primarily by the Governor Newsom Press Office account on X — during a broadcast of &#8220;The Five&#8221; on Fox News, and she made almost the same point that Scarborough did.
&#8220;For the last week, Gavin Newsom — why am I giving him advice?&#8221; she said. &#8220;You have to stop it with the Twitter thing. I don’t know where his wife is. If I were his wife, I would say you are making a fool of yourself, stop it.&#8221;

White people “can’t originally invent anything more than they were able to invent good music,” Joy Reid claimed last week in a podcast interview with New York Times contributing writer Wajahat Ali, who echoed Reid&#8217;s sentiments.
The host of The Joy Reid Show made the comments during an episode of Ali’s Left Hook <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQbVyNEN_C8">podcast</a> titled &#8220;How Mediocre White Men and their Fragility are Destroying America.”
“We black folk gave y’all country music, hip hop, R&amp;B, jazz, rock and roll. They couldn&#8217;t even invent that,” Reid said.
Reid notably did not attribute all music genres to black people. She also did not touch on inventions beyond the realm of music, besides vaguely mentioning “food” and “the economy.”
“We make the food better. We make the economy better. We make the music better,” Ali added.
“Even Elon Musk didn&#8217;t invent them damn Teslas. Two other men invented it. He just bought it,” Reid continued.
Tesla’s two co-founders, Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, are both <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2021/02/06/tesla-founders-martin-eberhard-marc-tarpenning-on-elon-musk.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white</a>.
Reid’s comments come as President Donald Trump, now the board chair of The Kennedy Center, recently <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-kennedy-center-announce-honorees/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> that he would be hosting the 2025 Kennedy Center Honors.
Trump helped pick this year’s honorees, including George Strait, Michael Crawford, Gloria Gaynor, KISS, and Sylvester Stallone. He says he rejected a lot of artists because “They were too <a href="https://www.sfchronicle.com/entertainment/article/trump-2025-kennedy-center-20815951.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">woke</a>. I had a couple of wokesters.”
Liberals — Reid included — are upset that Trump is “taking over” The Kennedy Center and the awards ceremony.
“These people cannot create culture on their own. So they need to take over, dominate, appropriate, and control. Without black people, brown people, the DEIs, there’s no culture in America,” Ali insisted to Reid.
According to Ali, Sylvester Stallone receiving a Kennedy Center honor is emblematic of white male fragility.
“Sylvester Stallone became famous because Rocky is all about a white man, a mediocre white man who has no chance in hell of ever ever ever ever ever beating Apollo Creed,” Ali concluded.
Rocky Balboa beats Apollo Creed at the end of “Rocky II.”

Far-left cable news network MSNBC is getting a new name — and will have to replace the NBC-affiliated peacock logo — in a major deal that will spin the network away from NBC Universal, and the reactions so far have been mixed at best.
Fox News regular Joe Concha shared a graphic showing the new name against a solid royal blue background: MS NOW, an acronym that was spelled out to mean My Source, News, Opinion, World.
&#8220;MSNBC will be renaming itself to this. And this isn’t a joke,&#8221; Concha said.

Justin Pearson (D-TN) claimed that his party needed to pull out all the stops and fight back against Republicans — to whom he referred alternately as &#8220;fascists&#8221; and &#8220;neo-confederates&#8221; — and argued that it wouldn&#8217;t matter in the long run what they were willing to do as long as they won.
Pearson was ousted from his position in the Tennessee House when he helped lead his party&#8217;s efforts to &#8220;occupy&#8221; the State House in protest, and then was reinstated days later — after claiming that he&#8217;d been forced out by &#8220;racists.&#8221; <a href="https://grabien.com/story?id=541230">During his appearance</a> with MSNBC&#8217;s Ali Velshi, he discussed the current state of American politics — particularly with regard to redistricting battles and Governor Gavin Newsom&#8217;s (D-CA) plan to &#8220;fight fire with fire.&#8221;
Velshi introduced Pearson as someone who had made a name for himself in fighting back, adding, &#8220;Brother Jones, welcome back to the show. You are living this. Not only have you done it, but you actually got reelected by your constituents to go back and fight some more. You have set this flavor out there a while ago that people want fighters. And right now voters are screaming out for this. They want people who will say, your morals should be good, but if they’re burning the house down you need to do something.&#8221;

&#8220;I mean, that’s exactly right, Brother Ali. You know, the house is on fire, we have to stop pretending like we don’t smell the smoke,&#8221; Pearson replied. &#8220;It’s time for America to wake up and put our morals above our manners. Now is not the time to engage in trying to play patty-cake with a party that’s been captured by fascists and neo-Confederates.&#8221;
&#8220;There is no bipartisanship anymore with a party that is intent on maintaining minority rule between tech oligarchs, White supremacists, and Christian nationalists,&#8221; Pearson continued, insisting that Republicans were attempting to build a sort of oligarchy. &#8220;They want a minority-run government, and they’re willing to do this at any means necessary. We must fight back.&#8221;
Pearson went on to claim that what they would not be judged as harshly for what they did to get power as they would be for what they did not do, adding, &#8220;You know, I think that we will be judged not by what we do, but by what we don’t do, to future generations.&#8221;
&#8220;Because if we’re serious about the threat of fascism, that means that there is nothing off the table. If we’re really serious about the threat that we face—&#8221; he explained. &#8220;That means we use everything at our table to fight back.&#8221;
Velshi made no move to push back on Pearson&#8217;s claims, instead agreeing with every point: &#8220;Because you will not be around to fight back if you don’t fight it now. Right!&#8221;

Recently ousted MSNBC host Joy Reid lashed out at President Donald Trump during a recent video for her &#8220;Welcome to Joy’s House!&#8221; Substack, claiming that he was &#8220;the physical embodiment of all of America&#8217;s sins.&#8221;

Reid then went on to list some of the &#8220;sins&#8221; that she said justified her position: &#8220;He’s sloppy. He’s unkempt. Everything about him is false. His hair is a pretense of non-baldness. He’s old, but his followers try to pretend that he looks like Superman.&#8221;
&#8220;He’s a terrible businessman and a failure who gets to fake success because he’s white, so banks keep lending him money even when he’s failing,&#8221; Reid continued, attempting to make it about race as well. &#8220;His father scoops money out of his siblings’ inheritance to give him when he fails.

Ousted MSNBC Host Says Trump Is ‘The Physical Embodiment Of All Of America’s Sins’

Ousted MSNBC Host Says Trump Is 'The Physical Embodiment Of All Of America's Sins'

&#8220;Morning Joe&#8221; host Mika Brzezinski appeared to realize too late that in their zeal to oppose President Donald Trump at any cost, Democrats were charging headlong into the &#8220;trap&#8221; of defending the violent crime that Trump had promised to stop in Washington, D.C.
Brzezinski and former &#8220;Hardball&#8221; host Chris Matthews were discussing President Trump&#8217;s takeover of law enforcement in the capital city, and the oppositional stance taken by many prominent Democrats and media talking heads — and they came to the conclusion that what the American people would see was Democrats siding with criminals in their efforts to get Trump.

For Matthews, the sticking point was the murder rate. &#8220;The murder rate — you can&#8217;t keep saying violent crime is down, but the murder rate&#8217;s up,&#8221; he said. &#8220;To the average person, the murder [rate] is about life and death. You don&#8217;t brag about a rising murder rate.&#8221;
&#8220;And the Democrats — I agree with you, Mika — have fallen into the trap of defending what&#8217;s indefensible,&#8221; he added.
&#8220;It&#8217;s a trap! Yes, it&#8217;s a trap,&#8221; Brzezinski replied. &#8220;I mean, it — it&#8217;s not a winner politically to say, &#8216;You&#8217;re wrong, look at the data.&#8217; Because if one violent crime happens in a very heavy populated part of the city, people hear about it and it&#8217;s visceral.&#8221;

&#8220;They don&#8217;t want it, and they want to — they&#8217;ll gravitate to the person who appears to be doing something about it,&#8221; she concluded.
Meghan McCain was among those who had already noticed a number of Democrats going in that direction, and she commented on the trend: &#8220;Since 2020 — I will NEVER understand democrats messaging of &#8216;murder and crime is actually not a big deal.&#8217; And why they continue to double, triple, quadruple down on it.&#8221;

‘It’s A Trap!’: MSNBC Host Realizes Too Late That Dems Are Defending Violent Crime To Get Trump

Chris Matthews

Former MSNBC host Chris Matthews conceded during a recent interview that the American people were &#8220;moving towards&#8221; President Donald Trump — and attributed that to Trump&#8217;s uncanny ability to gauge the mood of the people in real time.
Matthews made the comments during an interview with longtime PBS broadcaster Charlie Rose (who was let go by the network in 2017 amid allegations of sexual misconduct), and he compared Trump&#8217;s staying power with the &#8220;charisma&#8221; of others like former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
&#8220;To be honest with you, the country is moving towards Trump. These polls, they come out and show him not doing well — I don&#8217;t buy that,&#8221; Matthews said. &#8220;He is a stronger public figure than the Democratic people.&#8221;
Matthews went on to reference Obama — who still has the ability to draw a crowd — and argued that it was not enough to match what Trump brought to the table.
&#8220;Obama still has tremendous charisma — but Trump has strength,&#8221; he added. &#8220;[Voters] want a president who is a strong figure. And he&#8217;s got it. It&#8217;s just there. And half the country buys it.&#8221;

But Matthews didn&#8217;t stop there — instead, he went on to explain what he thought was really giving Trump the edge: his apparent ability to read the room and get his finger on the pulse of the people.
&#8220;We have never had a president so instantly spontaneous that he knows this minute — at 4:00 this afternoon, he will say, &#8216;You know, that&#8217;s not really true anymore,'&#8221; Matthews explained. &#8220;He will know the mood of the country.&#8221;

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has made it clear over the course of several interviews that he does not want to talk about New York City&#8217;s Democratic mayoral frontrunner, Zohran Mamdani.
Shortly after Mamdani — a self-described Democratic Socialist — bested disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) to win the Democratic primary, ABC&#8217;s Jonathan Karl asked Jeffries whether he was prepared to endorse his fellow New Yorker.
Jeffries, at the time, said that he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/spin-cycle-how-do-you-solve-a-problem-like-mamdani">did not know</a> Mamdani well enough yet to throw his weight behind the campaign — and he mentioned one sticking point in particular that he believed would have to be addressed before he could do so: Mamdani&#8217;s position on Israel.
&#8220;Globalizing the Intifada, by way of example, is not an acceptable phrasing,” Jeffries said. “He’s going to have to clarify his position on that as he moves forward. With respect to the Jewish communities that I represent, I think our nominee is going to have to convince folks that he is prepared to aggressively address the rise in antisemitism in the city of New York, which has been an unacceptable development.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
When Jeffries appeared on ABC&#8217;s midday talk show &#8220;The View&#8221; about a week later, the hosts asked him whether he planned to join those in his party — like Mamdani — who were calling for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be defunded. Jeffries tiptoed around the question, saying that he believed there should be &#8220;oversight&#8221; when ICE agents were using more aggressive tactics, but he did not directly answer the question.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
One day later, on MSNBC, Ari Melber asked Jeffries about Mamdani directly, wondering whether he believed the socialist&#8217;s surprise win over &#8220;establishment&#8221; Cuomo was good for the Democratic Party.
Instead of addressing whether or not Mamdani&#8217;s win was good for the party, Jeffries explained how he had &#8220;outworked&#8221; and &#8220;out-communicated&#8221; his opposition. He then pivoted to claim President Donald Trump — whose second term has seen falling gas prices and egg prices as well as rising jobs numbers and lowering inflation rates — had done nothing to address the high cost of living that most Americans were facing.
Melber immediately called him out, saying, &#8220;Respectfully, I see the pivot. You know, you&#8217;re good at this. That&#8217;s how you got this job.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
And on Wednesday morning, CNN&#8217;s Wolf Blitzer pressed Jeffries about new reports indicating that Mamdani&#8217;s allies planned to mount a primary challenge against him. Jeffries waved away the question, and attempted — as he usually does — to turn the topic to Trump.
&#8220;I have no idea what these people are talking about!&#8221; Jeffries said, clarifying that his sole focus was on pushing back against President Trump&#8217;s agenda. &#8220;We are going to continue to focus our efforts as we did on the House floor in connection with Donald Trump’s one big, ugly bill on pushing back against the extremism that has been unleashed on the American people.&#8221;

Axed MSNBC host Tiffany Cross claimed on Tuesday that President Donald Trump was &#8220;kidnapping people&#8221; off the streets of America and sending them off to &#8220;concentration camps.&#8221;
Cross joined a panel discussion on &#8220;CNN NewsNight&#8221; with host Abby Phillip, and she argued that the Trump administration was using Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — with the help of the Army National Guard — to &#8220;disappear&#8221; people the way the Nazi regime did in Germany.

&#8220;I think this is the challenge I have with even talking about this,&#8221; Cross said. &#8220;We are normalizing a government agency disappearing people. We’re normalizing — we’re talking about it like it’s no big deal that they are kidnapping people and transporting them to concentration camps, both domestic and foreign.&#8221;
New York Post Editor-at-Large Kelly Jane Torrance objected to the terminology, saying, &#8220;I think that’s kind of insulting to Jewish Holocaust survivors.&#8221;
&#8220;I think it’s insulting what they’re doing. It is not insulting to the Jewish Holocaust,&#8221; Cross protested. &#8220;I find it insulting that you could even fix your mouth to defend this disgusting behavior.&#8221;
&#8220;Are there gas ovens at these —?&#8221; Torrance attempted to get a straight answer out of Cross, to no avail.
&#8220;It doesn’t matter! It’s a concentration camp what they’re doing and they are disappearing people, claiming that these are people who have committed the most harsh crimes, but according to the reporting less than 10% of these people have committed harsh crimes so to do the victim Olympics and decide who had it worse I can tell you I can participate in that too,&#8221; Cross claimed.
&#8220;Let&#8217;s be accurate and honest,&#8221; Torrance challenged her.
&#8220;The fact that we&#8217;re presenting this like it&#8217;s political fodder that a government agency is disappearing people, it is not a political point, it is nothing to do with Jewish people,&#8221; Cross claimed — despite the fact that she&#8217;d been the one to draw the direct comparison when she invoked the concentration camps — and then blamed Torrance for trying to &#8220;make yourself of somebody else the center of attention.&#8221;
&#8220;Tensions are so heightened, using that kind of language is not helpful,” she said.
&#8220;Tensions are heightened because this BS administration is kidnapping people. It has nothing to do with my language. It has to do with the actions that are being taken by this administration,&#8221; Cross objected, refusing to let the point go.
Border czar <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/were-not-going-to-stop-homan-says-ice-will-keep-deporting-illegals-amid-ambush-attacks">Tom Homan</a> would disagree with Cross, however. He told Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum, during an appearance on &#8220;The Story,&#8221; that rhetoric like Cross&#8217; was what was driving violent ambush attacks against ICE agents — and he did not believe it was likely to stop.
