CNN was blasted after giving a platform to alt-right leader and white supremacist Richard Spencer.

Spencer, who can now be called a “CNN contributor,” was booked to discuss President Trump’s “racist” tweets.

He was given an open soap box and was barely challenged on his statements or past behavior.

Your team didn't just QUOTE Spencer.

They INTERVIEWED him. On VIDEO.

Without asking him hostile questions. Or putting him on blast for his prior actions.

It seems like you're willing to help Spencer recruit acolytes if he'll say mean things about Trump.

Very irresponsible.

“No one has done more for the PR of White Nationalists since 2015 than some media networks such as CNN. Spencer has been active for many years but few outside his bubble knew of him until media networks started given him outsized attention a few years ago,” commented one respondent.

“Whoa! CNN just gave a platform to white nationalism!” commented Breitbart’s Allum Bokhari. “@Facebook, @Twitter, @YouTube, when does the CNN demonetization / deplatforming start?”

“@CNN invited the epicenter of #Charlottesville on as a contributor,” tweeted Jeff Tidwell. “So this is what’s at the pit of ratings hell. A White Nationalist phoenix. What a stunt.”

CNN’s Jake Tapper tweeted out the story but subsequently deleted it, perhaps sensing the dreadful optics of giving a platform to an actual racist.

Facebook said they banned me for once interviewing Tommy Robinson.

Will Facebook ban CNN for interviewing a far-right white supremacist?

Don’t hold your breath.

.@PrisonPlanet was banned from @facebook for interviewing Tommy Robinson.

A new petition uploaded to the WhiteHouse.gov site is demanding an immediate Congressional investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar.

President Trump is currently engaged in a war of rhetoric with Omar and three other Congresswomen after he asked, “Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came?”

The petition is titled ‘Conduct an Immediate Congressional Investigation Into Rep. Ilhan Omar’ and reads as follows;

We ask the President to initiate a Congressional investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar’s background to determine if she should face expulsion from Congress.

Rep. Omar’s oath of loyalty to the United States of America is in serious doubt.

Omar made light of the September 11 terror attack by referring to the atrocity as “some people did something”.

Omar was recorded laughing about and making light of Islamic terrorism and the Al-Qaeda threat.

Omar refused to condemn the terrorist attack by a self-described Antifa member, who tried to firebomb an ICE facility in Washington State.

Omar also defended jihadists in her state who chose to join ISIS, saying they should get lighter punishments.

There are also severe allegations concerning the question of whether Omar married her own brother.

Article I, Section 5 of the United States Constitution details the measures necessary to initiate an expulsion of a sitting member of Congress, which requires the concurrence of two-thirds of the members.

Earlier today it was revealed that the House will pass a resolution condemning Trump’s “racist” tweets.

Those Tweets were NOT Racist. I don’t have a Racist bone in my body! The so-called vote to be taken is a Democrat con game,” Trump responded.

“Republicans should not show “weakness” and fall into their trap. This should be a vote on the filthy language, statements and lies told by the Democrat Congresswomen, who I truly believe, based on their actions, hate our Country,” he added.

…..Congresswomen, who I truly believe, based on their actions, hate our Country. Get a list of the HORRIBLE things they have said. Omar is polling at 8%, Cortez at 21%. Nancy Pelosi tried to push them away, but now they are forever wedded to the Democrat Party. See you in 2020!

Neo-con David French challenged President Trump’s “racist” tweets about Ilhan Omar by asserting that Trump was “far less American” than Omar and claiming that immigrants shouldn’t have any kind of “gratitude” for becoming a U.S. citizen.

“I know that Trump’s tweet was mostly telling natural-born American citizens to “go back” to the “places from whence they came,” a racist directive to his targets, but should immigrants have a special kind of gratitude?” asked French.

“I believe every American should be grateful for American liberty and opportunity. But the average immigrant citizen did more to earn their place than the average natural-born citizen,” he added.

He went on to call Trump a “lying, adulterous, sex predator of a president” who was “far less American” than Ilhan Omar.

If any person, be they a Twitter troll, or a draft-dodging, lying, adulterous, sex predator of a president tells her anything to the contrary, then they’re far less American than she is. /End

Ben Shapiro retweeted French’s comments in an apparent endorsement.

“It doesn’t matter if your ancestors built this country from the ground up for the sake of their posterity. You’re less deserving of being an American than someone who passed a citizenship test,” commented Chris Menahan.

Back in 2017, French’s ideological ally Bill Kristol said that white working class Americans should be replaced by immigrants because they have become “lazy,” “decadent” and “spoiled”.

Before the election, Kristol floated the idea of having French run for president to ‘save America from Trump’.
