The White Power Hour
By 
It is a serious problem that the most watched program on the most influential news network in America is pretty much wall-to-wall racist incitement:
Every single night I am absolutely blown away at how goddam racist this show is. It’s honestly hard to believe that this is on TV pic.twitter.com/hbtGFof7Zf— Andrew Lawrence (@ndrew_lawrence) June 7, 2019
One problem, though, is that saying the quiet parts loud can be bad for business. So, just like the president he’s devoted his life to getting re-elected, he’s making vague feints towards economic populism to try to make the white nationalism go down easier:
so, some sort of national socialist party? ah, https://t.co/2dwyw29hve— Emma Roller (@emmaroller) June 6, 2019
Now, this is the most obvious con in the world — Trump already did it! — and you would have to be a Grade A moron/liar/stooge to think he would have anything good to say about Warren or her policies should she actually get the Democratic nomination. But there are any number of “left” pundits who are desperately seeking Republican Daddies to justify avoiding the ultimate horror of supporting the election of someone from the Democrat Party, so…
I mean, the 2 min video they’re all citing literally ends with by saying:
“There’s not a word about identity politics in the document. There’s no hysterics about gun control or climate change. There’s no lecture about the plight of transgender illegal immigrants.”

And of course the chucklefuck trio of Greenwald, Tracey & Taibbi praised it (that’s just a given, at this point). Their singular goal seems to be making White Nationalism acceptable to “the left”. pic.twitter.com/LKsWaIjjox— Centrism Fan Acct 🔹 (@Wilson__Valdez) June 6, 2019
I’m not sure where any of these guys falls on the “Dumb Enough To Actually Believe This — Happy To Run Their Rube Followers Who Are Dumb Enough To Actually Believe This” continuum but at some point it doesn’t matter.
Oh, and of course Greenwald made yet another embarrassing appearance with Tucker last night. He’s obviously beyond shame, but a good dunking is a good dunking anyway:
This was two days after Tucker did another white-genocide conspiracy segment https://t.co/sEailv7O03— Tom Scocca (@tomscocca) June 6, 2019
In this case, the political adversity is about you sucking up to a white nationalist for the sake of your own TV exposure, and those of us who aren’t rich enough to flee this country don’t really like where those politics are leading https://t.co/L5XIAk2ccb— Tom Scocca (@tomscocca) June 6, 2019
