What King was denouncing was the assertions raised by the NYT interviewer using questions that reference common idoms used but are being attacked in socialist revisionist propaganda circles as racist. That technique method is similar to NYT use of questions about LGBT practices when seeking a reaction from by a religious figure.. Which have been manipulated and blown up to be prohibited expressions under guise of being politically incorrect ..
What Williamson did was because of his lazy journalism. Which is common practice unfortuantely in too many so called conservative communication venues in visual,print and talk radio. Was to support and continue to validate the “politically correct posture regurgitated by socialist revisionists.
Care to elaborate?
Maybe you’re think of Peter King?
Or that statement is so stupid it makes my hair hurt.
He went allin on globalist Cruz, and attacked PT.
There is no room for white, black, or latino Nationalism in AMERICAN Nationalism.
Valid question.
This was a Hit by the anti-Trump GOPe.......the fact they are making this about the use of the phrase “white supremacy” should have given everyone a heads up where this was coming from.
Looks like the House didn’t need Ryan to be constantly wrong - they are wrong all on their own....
I saw Liz Cheney attack him and almost vomited.
In the meantime, stupid slut Occasional Cortex brags about how she wants to run train and lead a gang rape her critics.
