Jim Acosta Tells Michael Fanone There’s ‘Absolutely Disgraceful’ Exploitation of Charlie Kirk’s Murder – Twitchy

We don’t know why we’re giving Jim Acosta any oxygen — you know he only has viewers so they can capture clips like this one and shame him. Acosta had on of all people, former Capitol Police Officer Michael Fanone to talk about exploiting an event. Acosta thinks it’s “absolutely disgraceful” how the Right is “exploiting” the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. “People on the far right are going to use this moment,” Acosta told Fanone, who certainly couldn’t be accused of exploiting January 6 to further his career.

NOW Acosta is worried about “an eye for an eye.” Save it.

These two clowns are irrelevant and insignificant.

“Exploiting tragedies is our bit,” said Acosta.

“Stop exploiting us shooting you!” – Jim Acosta, apparently.

I really couldn’t care less what this dipshit thinks. Especially from his basement. War.

Ask him about exploiting George Floyd or Trayvon Martin.

Wow, you’d think he would know disgraceful exploitation better.

Look who he is with. Enough said

Yeah, the guy he’s talking with is the former Capitol Police Chief who let people into the building and got Ashley Babbitt killed on Jan 6. Oh, then the democrats spent the last 4.5 years exploiting it.

But he got an owie.

Former capital police officer Michael Fanone…. Didn’t he lie to Congress to push a narrative?

It’s like it is just now dawning on them that someone could retaliate after they have ratcheted up the heat. I swear some people can’t see 4 feet in front of their face on how their thoughts will manifest outcomes.

It’s astounding to see how many liberals think that conservative rhetoric was responsible for the assassination of Kirk.
