No one mentions the race of the deceased or injured victims. Just seems strange for someone to do this shit.
I guess it was a voice in his head that was responsible:
The Knoxville News Sentinel reports 33-year-old William David Phillips told Jefferson City police that a voice told him that he needed to “kill meth addicts” and that the baby stroller the woman was pushing had meth in it “so he intentionally drove into (the mother and child) … killing them both,” the warrants read.
Chris Hayes mentioned that the so-called “Campaign Kickoff” (also known as Episode 61 of the Cockholster Chronicles: Orlando Edition) was in progress and they were monitoring it for any “news.” Spoiler alert: There was none.
“It seems fundamentally unfair and raises questions how they’ll cover this entire campaign,” Kurtz said.
Kurtz seems to believe that all media should be controlled by and dedicated to whatever madman might be occupying the top spot. Fortunately, that’s not how it works in a free society.
BTW Has anyone else noticed that these Rant Rallies are not unlike Festivus with an unending “airing of grievances”?
Trump did come up with one new lie according to Daniel Dale. Probably could have phoned that one in though.
Trump criticized a key feature of Obamacare, the individual mandate
“We got rid of the individual mandate. Right? How many people are happy? They no longer have to pay for the privilege of not paying for bad health insurance. How many people are happy? Bad health care. So every time you don’t have to make out a check in order not to have health care, think of that, think of that. This is the only country you pay for the very distinct privilege of not having to pay. But you have to pay a lot. Now you don’t have to pay anymore. You don’t want it, you don’t have to pay.”
Facts First: The US is not the only country that has had a financial penalty on people who do not obtain compulsory health insurance. The Netherlands and Australia, among others, require payments from people who do not meet certain mandatory coverage requirements.
Howie, you’ve been in the business long enough to know, it is a business. You give people what they want. And the other networks decided that Trump braying for an hour wasn’t what their audience wanted. Does that give you a sad? You’d better get used to it. Dude’s boring. Same stuff over and over.
It was the stupid way the networks used to get increased viewers by broadcasting Trumps disgusting rallies in 2016 the helped get him elected. If any of them start doing that again STOP watching that network!
CNN covered empty Trump podiums in '16. How many Clinton rallies did Fox carry? How many Biden or Warren rallies will they be covering this year? How many times must I flush before Howard Kurtz goes away?
My, how the mighty have fallen. Relegated to being a second rate media hack on Trump’s propaganda channel. From an April '74 Doonesbury strip with Nixon’s press secretary Ron Ziegler:
Ron, sometimes I imagine you must get up in the morning, look in the mirror before you’ve shaven, and think to yourself, Ron,you’re about to begin another day of evasion a deceit."
"Here’s my question Ron: What do yo do after you’ve come to such a realization?
I shave.
As long as we’ve exhausted the subject of what we think of Howie Kurtz, here’s the savior of the Democratic Party doing what he does, stabbing EW in the back as soon as she starts getting close:
