Brit Hume ‘Wonders’ If ‘Leftist Extremists’ Responsible For MAGA Capitol Violence

Posted by Ellen -7842.60pc on January 06, 2021 · Flag

Brit Hume postured as someone “just asking” when he tweeted to his 1.2 million followers not to be surprised “if” “leftist extremists” took part in the armed attack on the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump supporters.

At a time when the country needs calm and an easing of political tensions, Hume deliberately inflamed them – while pretending otherwise:

Do not be surprised if we learn in the days ahead that the Trump rioters were infiltrated by leftist extremists. Note: this is not to excuse any of them.

— Brit Hume (@brithume) January 7, 2021

No, Brit, you weren't excusing the right-wing violence, you were deliberately trying to distract and deflect from it by demonizing the left.

1/6/21 UPDATE: What a coincidence that Fox rival Newsmax is saying the same thing.

No Brit – your team owns this – lock, stock, and barrel. It’s ALL on you.

A proxy indicator of the extent to which that mob was dangerous? There were precious few reporters within punching distance. Most of the footage I’ve seen came from that English reporter (not BBC as I’d understood, but ITN). Might have been a rookie who hadn’t actually realised how dangerous the fools participating in that mob actually are.

May I take a moment to thank so many reporters who did their job in the thick of the mob action? The BBC guy (Moore ?) was jostled, insulted, and threatened while covering the entry of that mob into the building. The fact that nobody was actually hut may be attributed to the decision of CNN reporters to maintain some distance from the mob. I’m glad they stayed safe. Also because, there’s an awful lot of footage to fill the gaps.

This frantic attempt to blame antifa has been making the rounds today on every angry Right Wing website and blog. After they spent the last 3 weeks since the Electoral College constantly tweeting and blogging that they intended to come to DC to commit mayhem, now they want us to believe that actually they were somehow “infiltrated”.

Riiiiiiight.

There’s multiple levels of testimony, including on-camera interviews that aired on network television, of profanity-loaded statements by angry Right Wingers from Qanon, the survivalist fringe, the white supremacists, etc. It wasn’t “antifa” or “BLM” or anyone from the Left Wing that invaded and attacked the Capitol today. This is owned completely by the Right Wing. Just as the 4 deaths that happened in the riots are owned by the Right Wing.

The fact that Brit Hume is trying to gaslight this just points up how nonsensical it is for him to pose as an “elder statesman” when he is the same angry propagandist he’s been for decades, going back to when he tried to snark Bill Clinton at the announcement ceremony for Ruth Bader Ginsburg and got his paw smacked fairly hard in public.

Technical question. When Fox ‘News’ flunkies go down to the crypt and dig old Brit up for a timely comment, is the operation known as an exhumation?

“Do not be surprised if we learn in the days ahead that the Trump rioters were infiltrated by leftist extremists.”

We can’t wait to see this Fox “News” fraud’s face when he realizes it was the Trumpets all along.

NOTE TO BRIT

Will you issue an apology when the truth reveals it was Donnie’s little sheep that did all the damage at the Capitol? Are you man enough to apologize?
