CNN’s Lemon: Black Lives Matter, ‘White Lies Matter Too’ — GOP Whitewashing Capitol Riot
Breitbart ^ | 05/18/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/19/2021 6:28:30 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

CNN anchor Don Lemon said on his broadcast of “Don Lemon Tonight” that the Republican Party was trying to “whitewash” the events of the January 6 Capitol riot because House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said he did not support the legislation to create a bipartisan commission to investigate the events of January 6 because the scope is too narrow.

Lemon said, “This is live in Washington, D.C. where Republicans are trying to whitewash the Capitol insurrection, trying to stop a bipartisan commission from getting to the truth of what happened on one of the darkest days in American history.”

Ooooo, one of the “darkest days” in US history!

What a bunch of ridiculous hyperbole.

More like, one of the lamest riots ever.

These folks now play willfully ignorant and pretend like we didnt all watch what actual riots and destruction look like...we got to see them months on end. When they begin acknowledging the disproportionate (leftist new fave word) actions of BLM,antifa etc in relation to the “insurgency” they can talk.

The DARKEST day was the day that black hole swooped down and swallowed that plane! Right Don?

A high ranking BlM affiliate actually BOMBED the capitol. If we had an opposition party and/or free press this would be shouted into microphones every day since January 6th.

It’s not about what they were doing, it is where they were doing it. They don’t care when people tear down their own neighborhoods and kill each other. They care when you come for THEM. Then it gets serious.

one of the darkest days in American history.

It was indeed one of the darkest days in American history, but not for the reason Tailpipe Don thinks (the "insurrection"). It was a dark day because our entire government participated in, and validated, a totally fraudulent election.

Don would not relate to that, because when he does wear underwear it’s in rainbow colors.

It’s a full court press to rewrite history and make the coup legitimate.

How in hell do lemons like this moron all of a sudden come out of nowhere and are given a sh*tbag full of credibility they don’t deserve. What makes this homosexual somebody I’m supposed to believe every time he opens his big mouth? He’s a moron.

Oh indeed. Suddenly all the commies (whose express purpose is indeed to “overthrow” the government) get all patriotic and worried about US government and history.

Almost never did these natural traitors talk about “treason” as if they care about it until Jan 6. And never did they mention it before Trump and Russia - in fact, never did they worry about Russia until Trump. Wow. The chutzpah of these bastards (and I mean “the people”, too, not just politicos).

“getting to the truth of what happened.”

Well that’s certainly the MO of CNN and Don Lemon - “the truth”...

Gag.

Now, if you really want to talk about whitewashing a Capitol riot let us look back at 2017...

Usurpation Day was one of the darkest days in US history.

Both parties threw out the Constitution and swore in the ineligible Kenyan/British subject/Indonesian.

An Insurrection was what BLM, Antifa, Pence and Congress did on January 6th.

A Counter-Insurrection is what Trump/MAGA people did.
