How sick do you have to be to downplay a terror attack in the name of climate science?
Eight people are dead after a terrorist plowed a truck into pedestrians on a lower Manhattan bike path. The suspect, identified by law enforcement officials as 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov, reportedly screamed “Allahu akbar” as he exited the vehicle waving guns after crashing into a school bus. He was shot by a uniformed police officer and is now in custody. New York Police Commissioner James O'Neill said a paintball gun and pellet gun were recovered at the scene.
Saipov is reportedly an Uzbek national who came to the U.S. in 2010. A Muslim immigrant committing an act of terror on U.S. soil creates a narrative the Left absolutely does not want to talk about, and so already many in the media are twisting the facts. Whether it’s CNN reporting that Saipov “was yelling ‘God is great’ in Arabic” or Gov. Andrew Cuomo, D-N.Y., urging New Yorkers to carry on as if there is no radical Islamic terrorism problem, too many are obscuring the reality.
Some are more hamfisted than others, like Forbes deputy editor Halah Touryalai who thinks EPA administrator Scott Pruitt is scarier than radical Islamic terrorism.
halah ✔ @_halah This is scarier than Allahu Akbar. http://www.motherjones.com/environment/2017/10/scott-pruitt-is-using-the-bible-as-his-guide-for-reorganizing-epas-science-boards/ … 5:49 PM - Oct 31, 2017
tweet links to an article from Mother Jones that attacks Pruitt for quoting the Bible as he explained his decision to bar scientists who receive federal grants from serving on independent science advisory committees.
“In the book of Joshua there is a story about Joshua leading the people of Israel into the promised land after Moses passed away,” Pruitt said Tuesday. “And Joshua says to the people of Israel choose this day whom you’re going to serve. And I would say to you this is sort of like the ‘Joshua Principle’ that as it relates to grants to this agency, you are going to have to choose either service on the committee to provide counsel to us in an independent fashion or you can choose grants, but you cannot do both.”
So, according to this Forbes’ deputy editor, Scott Pruitt’s decision is scarier than a murderous jihad attack, which today, claimed the lives of eight people in New York.
That is deranged.
Forbes magAzine is a dirtbag collection of really slimy people. Forbes has a lot of nerve talking his conservative BS, liar and hypocrite scum.
Through a bill sponsored by Schumer.
Well, it’s an oddity, because Forbes’ Editor in Chief, Steve Forbes, is one of the clearest thinking economic and political analysts of any public figure I know of. His staff is another story. They got taken over by a Chinese Company so I don’t know what effect that has had.
Steve Forbes continues to express some of the best economic and political analysis you can find on his “Note and Comments” section. Few understand free market economics as well as Steve Forbes.
What is really odd is that he appears on lou dobbs fairly frequently and he is very conservative oriented. So why doesnt he clean up his mag?
FIRE HIM, Forbes!
Pruitt is President Trump’s best cabinet choice.
Almost as scary is the “report” that he was/is? an Uber driver.
**************************
How can a man provide for a wife and two kids in New Jersey by being a Uber driver?
He must have had another job. Where was it?
He is a state sponsored refugee. I guarantee you and I are paying his freight.
I, and others, used to post articles from Zerohedge here on FR. But it’s not allowed anymore. I still read the site though, they have some good articles.
Do you mean it is not really a MAGA-zine any more?
Agreed.
