Liberal Media’s Hypocrisy: Imagine If Jared Kushner Was a Kennedy
March 3rd, 2018 4:00 PM
It is remarkable to see the headlines about presidential aides Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump in the liberal media.

But what is particularly noticeable is…

Some crimes, like the Parkland massacre, earn the full outraged attention of the New York Times, which is fitting. But when Trump wages a rhetorical war on other murderers, like the immigrant gang MS-13 who bludgeon teens to death, the paper responds with hand-wringing explainers like Friday’s front-page corrective suggesting the threat of MS-13 is overblown and surely is unrelated to Obama’s…

Scott even said the jury was still out on the history of Marxism, "…
