After all the disinformation his show has spread, Kilmeade can add a “world-class hypocrite” trophy to his shelf next to his “world-class racist” one.

What gets me is there was probably a group decision to put this on the air.

Facts? We don’t need no stinking facts.

There’s so much derp in that splitscreen that it’s threatening to collapse in on itself to form a derp hole, from which no derp can ever escape.

But what about the Albanian-Americans? Why isn’t he yelling at the Albanians? Damned Adriatic slackers, I say.

So why can’t we also yell at the morons of his viewers too??

If I heard it correctly, Biden was talking to everybody who refuses or is reluctant to get vaccinated.

And consider this, Brian. Many African-Americans are resistant to getting vaccinated because of historical experience and a lot of current misinformation (including from people at FOX and Republican politicians and right-wing commentators, and the spread of that to social media). On the other hand, a lot of the Republican tribe flat-out refuses to get vaccinated in order to make a partisan political point and continue as a tribe member in good standing (and also because of the misinformation which they’ve been taught and encouraged to believe). Which is worse, dickhead? And what have you done to contribute to this situation? What are you doing now to fix it?

Fox begins with an “F.” So does fascism. Republican begins with an “R.” So does racism.

Let’s do some math here. White racist Republicans are 4 times more likely to be unvaccinated. White racist Republicans are also more likely to still believe black folks only count as 3/5 of a person…

That means white racist Republicans a 6.7 times more doochy than they were before Kilmeade opened his mouth this morning…

For him he’s the Avery Brundage and it’s an Olympic track event.

There have been many micro targeted ads for the vaccine here in the NYC area featuring not only Black Americans but African and Caribbean immigrants.
My heavily immigrant zip code has a vaccinated rate of over 80%.

If it wasn’t for TPM I would have no idea what Brian Kilmeade may have said - ever.

Kilmeade is just following the Trump playbook here, which is to know your audience, and give them what they want to hear in coded words. He’s basically saying Black people are stupid and need to be yelled at by a White man, while ignoring the historical context for why they’re vax-hesitant.
