Time Magazine Attacks White House Sign Language Interpreter Because She Wore A MAGA Hat
https://thenationalpulse.com ^ | JANUARY 27, 2021 | STAFF WRITER

TIME Magazine attacked Joe Biden’s press briefing sign language interpeter Heather Mewshaw for wearing pro-Trump apparel and running an online group that “provides sign language accompaniments to right-wing videos.” “For some members of the deaf and hard of hearing community, the inclusion of Mewshaw in kicking off the new White House initiative soured what should have been purely a moment of excitement,” TIME lamented.

TIME describes Mewshaw’s online group as “soliciting requests from the public” concerning what videos to sign, and, as a result, “the vast majority of videos” from the group are “conservative or pro-Trump”:

While the group frequently solicits requests from the public, the vast majority of videos it has chosen to interpret, with the notable exception of the recent White House press conferences, are conservative or pro-Trump in their sentiment. In a Jan. 20 video titled “Thank You President Trump From the Right Side ASL Team!,” Mewshaw signs along with a compilation video of Trump dancing to the song YMCA.

“Some of these videos have featured vaccine misinformation, conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and the Jan. 6 riots at the Capitol, and false claims about Michelle Obama being transgender,” TIME adds.

Among the group’s videos attacked by TIME were “a video featuring Mewshaw interpreting Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani posted by the group on the social platform Rumble, an alternative to YouTube popular among conservatives” entitled “WHAT REALLY HAPPENED On January 6th?”

“A video billed as “DR. EXPLAINS COVID VACCINE” shows Mewshaw interpreting another video by Trump-approved Dr. Stella Immanuel” and a video titled “Joe Biden is literally and legally not the President elect” also appear on the page.

Time also linked to the following tweet, exclaiming “this is her” in the “Trump/Pence shirt and the MAGA hat.”

Gather round folks. I have a story to tell you about the interpreter in the current White House Briefing.

This is her. In the Trump/Pence shirt and the MAGA hat. https://t.co/go0FXMIfw8 pic.twitter.com/W89RErON5X

From the organization that named Adolph Hitler it’s Person of the Year TWICE?? Yeah, Time has a lot of credibility when it comes to criticizing people- not.

What happens will definitely signal Biden’s unity intentions.

We have a two-party system.

And at this point, if you provide any indication that you support one of those two parties, the ruling class will destroy you.

Hasn’t Time been going broke for about 25 years? Do these “woke” companies ever really fall apart? Nobody under 40 knows what Time even used to be. Do they have a huge Spanish circulation or something?

Democrats continue to show just how small and petty they are. They continue to push for something that, if and when it happens, they will not like the result.

No, no, wrong slant on the article!
The WH is making Meshaw puppet their words - that’s even better than making her bake them a cake!
Some people you just can’t please.

They should fire this woman and replace her with the guy from South Africa who interpreted Nelson Mandela’s funeral. After all, he’s black.

'Time' inserts itself into a message in an attempt to find relevancy. Who knew 'Time' was still in business? Can they be called a "magazine" if they publish fewer copies than a town flier?

On a related note, does anyone know the sign language for M A G A? (not the one or two finger version)

Actually, this might be a good thing as it exposes time readers (yes, there are probably a few that ONLY get their “facts” from the Mockingbird Media) to the idea that there are issues that have never been discussed by the Enemedia.

Some people are going to do a search on “Rudy Giuliani”, “Rumble” and “WHAT REALLY HAPPENED On January 6th?” MeThinks that this is a good thing.

What happens when the Un-Woke try to wrap their heads around Michelle Obama being a he-she ?

The war between Patriots and the Traitors is far from over and taquia can be a strategy that can work for the White Hats against the Black Hats. Common sense would have Patriots inside the enemy camps running psyops against them.
