CNN’s Acosta: IG Report on Park Clearing ‘Almost a Whitewash’ – Sounds Like IG ‘Auditioning to Become the Inspector General at Mar-a-Lago’
breitbart ^ | 06/10/2021 | Ian Hatchett

On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “New Day,” CNN host and Chief Domestic Correspondent Jim Acosta stated that the report by Interior Department Inspector General Mark Greenblatt that Park Police did not clear protesters from Lafayette Park so then-President Donald Trump could do a photo op “sounded as if this inspector general was auditioning to become the inspector general at Mar-a-Lago.” And “is almost a whitewash of what occurred on June 1.”

Acosta said, “I certainly think it raises more questions than it answers. I mean, the IG report is saying that the Park Police cleared the park with the purpose of setting up this fence. Because obviously, the protesters needed to be moved back from this area where they were defacing statues and potentially pulling down the Andrew Jackson statue and so on. I was in the Rose Garden that day when Trump gave that speech and said I’m going to go to this special place, talking about the church, and you could hear the Park Police and other federal forces, D.C. police, clearing that park. They were violently pummeling protesters, tear-gassing protesters. Remember, at the time, the White House was telling us, oh, we didn’t use tear gas. The D.C. police were using tear gas.”

This topic got under Scarborough's skin and now Acosta. They invest in lying so much they have to protect it.

Antifa stormed the White House and fire bombed a church.

INGSOC media doubling down on talking points thoroughly discredited, a familiar habit isn’t it?

Acosta is lying, as the IG found pepper balls were used not tear gas. Pepper spray and tear gas are two different things.

When confronted with their fraud, the only reaction of a child is to throw a tantrum. “I’ll hold my breath till I turn blue!”

This is all Acosta is doing. Expect tantrums like this is the near future, as a lot of leftist lies are going down soon.

If he wants real debate, come up with evidence of his convictions. But he won’t, because he can’t, because there isn’t any... evidence that the IG Report is anything but factual. Let him hold his breath, see if I care!

Why do Lefties always say:

IT RAISES MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS.

They say that because it keeps the narrative going a little longer. And Heaven knows, they like to keep the narrative going...on and on.
