CBS host Gayle King defends First Lady after 'tacos' gaffe: 'When you know Jill Biden, that's not who she is'
Fox News ^ | July 12, 2022 | Taylor Penley

CBS co-host Vladimir Duthiers noted that many found the comment 'incredibly offensive'

First Lady Jill Biden took heat Monday for a short-sighted comment comparing Hispanics to "breakfast tacos" during the UnidosUS Annual Conference in San Antonio, Texas, but one CBS host was sympathetic to the gaffe.

"Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength," she said Monday, praising UnidosUS President Raul Yzaguirre for his work.

"CBS Mornings" host Gayle King reassured viewers the remarks were not reflective of the First Lady during Tuesday's broadcast, saying, "When you know Jill Biden, that's not who she is."

King added that Biden's message "didn't come out correctly," while coming to her defense during the segment. King, who has donated to Democrats, has vacationed with the Obama family and is also close friends with billionaire Oprah Winfrey and Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J.

Who are you going to believe, the democrat ministries of truth or your own lying eyes?

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. Men are women and women are men. Joe Biden did not say what everyone heard him say. Jill Biden is not a racist no matter what she says.

George Orwell just got the year wrong.

Leftists covering for leftists over nonsense. It allows them to avoid real issues that none of them are intellectually capable of handling. After all, this is weekday morning TV. I submit there isn’t a single serious person on mainstream media that is on at that hour. That includes Fox and Friends. Morning entertainment/news programs were never meant to be serious so why even care what they say.

Jill Biden thanked Gayle King and added “blacks are as unique as watermelons.”

This is the Communist-Marxist she was praising: from Wiki:

Raul Humberto Yzaguirre (born July 22, 1939) is an American civil rights activist. He is a life member of the Council on Foreign Relations. He served as the president and CEO of the National Council of La Raza from 1974 to 2004 and as U.S. Ambassador to the Dominican Republic from November 2010 to May 2013.

Apparently Gayle doesn’t know that Hunter has labeled his step-mother Jill, an “entitled c*nt.”

I’m old enough to remember when the media beat up Melania Trump over her White House Christmas decorations.
