Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt resigned from his contributing columnist role at The Washington Post on Friday after storming off the newspaper’s live show over a disagreement with his colleagues.
Hewitt’s resignation came after an appearance on “First Look,” the Post’s live show hosted by Jonathan Capehart, alongside Ruth Marcus, an associate editor and columnist at the Post, during a discussion over former President Donald Trump legal efforts in battleground states.
“Is it me, or does it seem like, this week, Donald Trump is laying the groundwork for contesting the election by complaining that cheating was taking place in Pennsylvania by suing Bucks County for alleged irregularities?” Capehart asked Marcus and Hewitt.
“No election can be fair in Donald Trump’s mind unless Donald Trump wins it,” Marcus said before Hewitt interjected.
“I’ve just got to say we are newspeople even though we’re with the opinion section. It’s got to be reported — Bucks County was reversed by the court and instructed to open up extra days because they violated the law and told people to go home,” Hewitt said. “So, that lawsuit was by the Republican National Committee, and it was successful.”
Hewitt was referencing a recent successful bid by the Trump campaign and RNC to extend mail-in voting in the Philadelphia suburb. On Wednesday morning, the campaign filed a lawsuit claiming the county had illegally turned away “many” voters before Tuesday’s 5 p.m. deadline to apply in person. A Pennsylvania judge sided with the trio on the same day.

It had to be pretty bad for Hugh Hewitt, CINO, to leave the interview.
Okay. Let me be the first to say today: Make Hugh great again.
Dayum
WOW!!!! BEST THING HE’S EVER DONE!
I saw the video of it. I have to say that Hugh Hewitt was right and the other two were wrong. I do not blame him for leaving that sh!t show.
Give him credit, he’s not a nevertrumper.
from "the comments"
Whoopsie. All those lefties Hugh has been shtuping are about to feast.
In December 2016, during the time the actual Electoral College Electors voted, in some States each Elector had a police escort due to the threats from the Marxists. Hussein, Billary and company had an entire post-election campaign to force the Electors to change their votes.
The above, like most democRAT crimes, was flushed down the memory hole.
NNBC news had something on tonight about “2020 election deniers are now working as poll watchers”, as if there was something wrong with that. The more voting irregularities that are brought to daylight BEFORE election day, the better chances there will be at least some reduction in cheating. IMHO
Hewitt has always been an honest guy.
Good for him for walking off.

LOL 😂
About as conservative as mittens
The ComPost implosion continues.
“It was a segment hosted by yet another gay colored man”
He oozed “gay”.
Amazing, Yuge finally stood up.....
I remember how much he used to drool over Mittens. He even wrote a book called, “A Mormon in the White House”.
