I believe in redemption, but before redemption comes repentance; has Holt repented?

Could possibly be interesting, I don’t know if Lester Holt has the chops to hit with hard questions and follow-up. Holt may not even have done enough homework to ask the right questions.

But recall, Tucker Carlson got a lot of crap for interviewing Putin. Will Holt be put through the same, going to interview the leader of the country that trained and equipped the Iraqi militias that killed and maimed thousands of US servicemen and women with roadside bombs and IEDs and rocket/mortar attacks? That killed and maimed many of their fellow Muslims, or set them up to be the fall guys in various proxy wars?

I find it fascinating that when a liberal interviews a hostile, if not terrorist, supporting nation they are met by fascination and a positive overall perception by the media.

Look at what the left said when Tucker Carlson interviewed Vlad the Invader.

I don’t care who the media wants to interview, politicians all lie anyway. It’s just that the liberals always help them to cover up the lies and let them give justification for unacceptable actions. Notice that Tucker Carlson gave Putin no pass.

I remember how the media whores and college liberals were gushing over Ahneedajihad because he HATED Dubya. Therefore he must be good. And when a college student asked him about “gay rights” he said, “we don’t have those people in iran. Yeah, because they are executed. BUT, the college students and media whores loved him and considered him just an adorable little goof like Kermit the Frog.

Now that Trump is back Lester has to do his duties as a paid media whore to legitimize the world’s tyrants to combat the bad orangeman who is bad.
