In order to appreciate the depth of anger at the “Blue Lives Matter” crowd, one first should read the quotes from last night’s Fox News coverage and absorb just how viciously hypocritical these people can be when defending white people and Donald Trump.
Laura Ingraham:
“No reasonable person thinks that what happened on January 6th was as Biden said, the worst attack on the Capitol since the Civil War. The theatrics were intended to produce an emotional reaction, logic, and facts be damned,”
Name one worse attack, Laura. And facts? How about the fcking video? We will wait. Next up, Tucker Carlson:
“Since 6th is being used as a pretext to strip millions of Americans of their core constitutional right. We’re witnessing the most aggressive crackdown on civil liberties in our lifetime.”
More aggressive than what happened to George Floyd’s civil liberties? And then Sean Hannity:
“Nancy Pelosi’s January 6th commission and literally it has one mission and one mission only, oh, let’s see if we can impeach and smear and slander Donald Trump one more time and, of course, the GOP one more time on national television.”
How is this about Donald Trump? We were told he didn’t incite anyone and it was a protest gone bad? How is Trump to blame, Sean? Or is there something you’re not telling us?
So put all of that in context when you read about the people wondering why these particular blue lives don’t matter, why are they mocked? Is it because they were attacked by white people and it hurts Fox’s political agenda that these white people look so awful? Do they want white people to protect white people and shut up? Of course, it is.
The net wanted to know, too:

If Laura Ingraham says that "Blue Lives Matter," then why can't she look these heroes in the eye? pic.twitter.com/Woae5h7f9I
