DEI hire?
Posted on 09/02/2024 2:09:22 PM PDT by Libloather
Kristen Welker, the moderator of NBC’s weekly Sunday political interview show “Meet the Press,” falsely asserted that Vice President Kamala Harris met with the Gold Star families of the 13 American troops who were killed during the ill-fated US withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Welker made the comment as she interviewed Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), who took the Biden-Harris administration to task for their treatment of the families.
Cotton noted that Harris, the Democratic nominee for the presidency, had not yet met with the kin of the 13 service members who were killed when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device at an entry point to the Kabul airport during the chaotic evacuation on Aug. 26, 2021.
The blast killed 183 people and wounded at least 150 others — among them US and Afghan personnel as well as Afghan civilians seeking to escape aboard US military planes.
The Arkansas senator drew a contrast between Harris and Trump, who was invited by the families to appear alongside them at Arlington National Cemetery on the third anniversary of their deaths.
Trump’s appearance at the wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington, which included a photo of the former president smiling and giving a thumbs up just feet from the fallen soldiers’ tombstones, prompted Harris and other Democrats to accuse him of using the hallowed space for a campaign event — which is forbidden by federal law.
When Welker brought up the Democrats’ claim, Cotton pushed back, saying: “They (the Gold Star families) wanted President Trump there.”
“They wanted to take those photos. You know who the families also invited? Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,” Cotton said, adding: “Where were they? Joe Biden was sitting on the beach. Kamala Harris was sitting at her mansion in Washington, DC.”

DEI hire?
Kristen Welker reeks of a DEI hire. She’s not, but that’s sure how she comes across.
“Sheet On The Press”
More ass-kissing lies from the far-left fascist “media” trying to save their baby killer queen.
So if it walks line a duck and quacks like a duck, we need to reserve judgement on it’s true nature?
Yes depression works overtime on some in the media they don’t have a life only imaginations.
Shes A,DEMOCRAT LIAR.
LOL - good point.
Uninformed or lying
take your pick
She is a woke nitwit. DEI or not...she is integrity free...and a major loser.
I pick lying. The Propaganda media spouts out lies over and over because they know that the people who consume only their garbage will believe the lies. Usually the propaganda media uses weasel words so they could not be sued.
The people who hear the lies don’t recognize the weasel words such as… …..According to the New York Times….. or. ….some say…. Or ….it has been reported that….. The propaganda media consumer repeats the lies without the weasel words and soon enough it is totally believed.
Example: Sarah Palin never said that she could see Russia from her house. About half the country would insist that she did say that.
Welker is the perfect personification of ABCPBSPNBCNN.
Marinated in mediocrity.
She has a long way to go to achieve mediocrity.
She is a liar first and foremost, probably uninformed as well…check that, she is totally uninformed about everything…💯💯💯
The drive-by media thinks the American people are dumber than a box of rocks. They run with lies, never bothering to even fact-check themselves, or they deliberately lie, thinking nobody else is going to fact-check them, and then quietly correct their deliberate lies, pretending it wasn’t a big deal to begin with. There’s so much video out there showing the coffins arriving, along with the people who actually attended, but this $hite-head still ran with a story she either didn’t want people to know the truth about, or she’s just plain lazy to check her own facts.
She doesn't moderate or interview anyone - she engages in pushing partisan Democrat talking points and argues with the guests.
take your pick"
Fixed!
