NBC has a story stating Warren was silenced for quoting CSKing. That is false. She was silenced for impugning the motives of another Senator...Rule 19. No mention of Rule 19 in the story, NBC tries to make it appear racist. I loathe them.

Don't you worry. If you and I see the truth, the truth is escaping. NBC has zero -- and I mean ZERO -- credibility any more.

“. . . false. She was silenced for impugning the motives of another Senator...Rule 19. . . . “

Yes.

Let us stick to the facts:

(Just as a drunk driver is isn’t arrested ‘after quoting from Coretta Scott King...’)

From a liberal source:

“Warren offered a blistering speech against Sessions from the Senate floor, arguing he wouldn’t stand up to Trump’s ‘campaign of bigotry.’

“ ‘He made derogatory and racist comments that should have no place in our justice system,’ she said. ‘To put Sen. Sessions in charge of the Department of Justice is an insult to African-Americans.’ “

*She was banned for her words, not the speech she read from.*

It is dishonest of Fox25 Boston (whose coverage I just watched) and this article to claim otherwise.

It is, additionally, intentionally dishonest of them.

I wish there were some legal redress.
