It's like watching a fog of Nazi-ism and pedophiles creep across the country

Yup. And you and I are letting it happen.

In a just society this claim should get this creep fired.

I'd go much further than that. This sentence alone used in this power structure intends to and likely will cause harm to children.

Fuck this dude, I hope his life is short.

Im surprised any newsmax host would get backlash for saying anything, considering it is literally news handcrafted for people with the least critical thinking skills imaginable
