Dennis Prager argues Democrats praised violent protests like the 2011 Wisconsin Capitol occupation but now condemn similar actions. He cites Nancy Pelosi's support for those unionists and claims mainstream media outlets distort coverage to compete for extremism.
Just the comments of Democrats over the last 4 years justifying violence, and there is no comparable comment from the president, President Trump, that is. Just that alone shows— I mean, hypocrisy doesn't quite do it. And yet I get emails, and it's terrific for me to get emails from people who can't stand me. It's very important to me to hear how their minds operate, to read how their minds operate, to be precise. It's a— it's an insurrection. So I just had in front of me the, the article from Wisconsin. This took place 20— when was that? 2011. Yeah. Nancy Pelosi praised unionists storming Wisconsin State Capitol. Democrats were for occupying capitals before they were against it. Yeah, that's quite something. And they took over the place for months, the Capitol, the state Capitol. Did she call— she praised them. She didn't call it an insurrection. She praised them. But they own the language, do you understand? Because they own the media. They're indistinguishable. You would not know any possible difference between or among them. LA Times, Washington Post, New York Times, USA Today— they rival one another. It's a competition who can be more extreme, who can pervert the news more effectively. Abigail Shrier has some tweets out today about how Facebook— was it Facebook funds USA Today Fact Checker, the USA Fact Checker. What goes back to Facebook? And then Facebook quotes them. Yes, that's right.
