The author posted it himself at 3 AM without oversight? Expect a trip to rehab to avoid the ax.

Tweets at link. IT's actually sad what the National Review has degenerated into. Maybe it's time for it to go the way of the Weekly Standard.

Agenda driven fake news. Tools of the internationalists of the New World Order.

I wonder if they've made a job offer to Jason Leopold yet.

“He hasn’t retracted on his Twitter.”

Nope,we have been drowning in lies the past couple of days-——the Buzzfeed fiasco and now this.

”The heavy hitters at National Review...”

WTF? There are no “Heavy hitters” at National Review. What a bunch of juvenile squat.

Proverbs 18:17 The first to plead his case seems just, Until another comes and examines him.

You had many on the right last night going after these kids..I saw the ENTIRE video this morning, these kids did NOTHING wrong..absolutely NOTHING..all they wanted to do was go to the March For Life event and do some sightseeing and look what happened..all because you had a left wing loon wanting his 15 minutes of fame and an eager media who want these kids dead because they wore MAGA hats..I am saddened for my country I really am, America is dying a slow painful death..and I blame it for the most part on the media..who have divided this country more than anyone else could

chagrined - to vex by disappointment or humiliation

I had to look it up. More than just disappointed.

Fox was reporting that the Covington boys surrounded the Native American activist and were disrespectful. This illustrates how bad reporting gets legs that are unstoppable.

The first time I saw an ad for NR in the 90s, I thought that you literally had to have a PHD to ever “get” it because it must be so fancy. That every article must be blessed by that aristocratic Buckley person....and the Queen.

Now this? Now NR is doing “hot take” articles at 3AM?

Once again, I will advocate my own personal rule of waiting 48-72 hours before commenting on any controversy on social media.

How many times does the public need to get hoodwinked before people catch on? My own pastor, who is part Cherokee, even commented on the affair from the pulpit today. And based upon his sermon today (on another topic), I will opine that he needs to adopt some of the skepticism that I have towards the Media and so-called experts. At least he has said that he has stopped watching television news.

Frankly, if you take anything that starts at Buzzfeed at face value, you are just asking to get conned.

Wow. He looks like he should be drinking Ripple from a bag in a local gutter.

He probably shares the bottle of Ripple with the “Indian elder”

For goodness sakes alive...
  Has anyone ever been around a bunch of teenagers, especially boys, when some type of unusual event occurs? Every last time, they get a silly grin on their faces and probably giggle. It means nothing....Kids (boys) will be boys.

The guy beating the drum walked up to the high school students and inserted himself into their gathering. Same observation for the black group of taunters.

If you have ever taken a group of kids on a field trip and tell them to assemble at XYZ at 1:00pm. Someone in the group will be the mother hen. That far from home, these kids do not know where to go when trouble arrives.

Really, the media has shamefully run wild with a non-story.
Ciao!

Something even bigger starting to happen
It turns out the kid in the video that the Indian guy is banging his drum in his face

The kid that the left wants to Lynch for smiling..

Turns out that kid might be deaf!

Not confirmed yet but if you watch the video the kid at the end looks like he turns round signing

asking what this guy is saying to him

If nothing else, this shows EXACTLY who the people at National Review are.

Specifically, once a Trump supporter is accused by the media of some type of racism, bigotry, or similar - they IMMEDIATELY GO ON THE ATTACK against that person, and by default, all of us.

...and they wonder why we’re so sick of those losers and won’t abandon Trump. They cannot even wait for the FACTS to come out - they IMMEDIATELY BLAME US.
