Former CNN anchor and self-appointed guardian of the truth Jim Acosta unleashed several bits of fake news in the early moments of his Thursday podcast as he reacted to ABC’s decision to suspend Jimmy Kimmel. Most notably, Acosta claimed that all Kimmel did was call out MAGA for politicizing Charlie Kirk’s murder.
Acosta wasted no time in getting to his hysterical rewriting of history:
Welcome to The Jim Acosta Show, and it's another day that ends in Y and Donald Trump's assault on American democracy. We have entered a new era of snowflake fascism, ladies and gentlemen, in the U.S., where the snowflakes on the far-right whine and complain every time somebody hurts their feelings. The weak-kneed corporate executives who only know how to smooch Trump's butt simply go along with the dear leader's demands. The latest example, the canceling of Jimmy Kimmel's late night TV show, all Kimmel did was call out MAGA for attempting to capitalize on the death of Charlie Kirk, which of course they did.
