ABC Ignores Kavanaugh Threat to Gush Over Jean-Pierre’s LGBTQ Identity

On Wednesday, a deranged pro-abortion leftist went to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house to attempt to assassinate him, thankfully he got cold feet and called the police on himself. However, it’s a major news story that leftist media refuse to cover. 

Such was the case on Sunday when ABC’s This WeekThe whole hour was spent without even making mention of an attempted assassination on the part of a Supreme Court justice. Martha Raddatz was instead co-anchor and spent time obsessing about January 6, Democrats committee hearings. Then, she did an interview with Sandy Hook School shooting survivors. 

 

 

In the last full segment of the show, Raddatz introduced a fawning interview between White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and correspondent Gio Benitez for “Pride Month.”

“At her first press conference back in may, newly appointed White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre marked the many firsts she brings to her role” Raddatz announced before previewing the interview. 

“In a new ABC News special ‘Pride: to be Seen,’ correspondent Gio Benitez sat down with Jean-Pierre at the White House to discuss how her LGBTQ+ identity has shaped her and the unique position she’s now in” Raddatz gushed. 

Parroting the Democrat Party line, Benitez asked Pierre: “We are seeing so many laws across the country that many see as anti-LGBTQ+. I wonder for you as a mother what do you think?” 

 

 

Jean-Pierre responded to the softball question by noting how she is “always concerned as a mom because you’re trying to raise a little person that’s going to be the best of themselves. I see those laws and I feel for young people who are in school, right, who are trying to just be who they are.”

She added that’s “why I’m here, to continue to fight and to make sure that we hopefully deliver and change things and make people’s lives better.”

A concerned Benitez noted that “The Equality Act is something that the President called the top priority for the first 100 days of the presidency but he hasn’t been able to push that through Congress.” He asked Jean-Pierre if Biden “underestimat[ed] how hard that would be to pass?”

She disagreed that he underestimated it, noting that Biden “knows how the Senate works.”   

Jean-Pierre claimed Biden “calling on Congress to act does matter. Will it take time? It is likely. However, does that mean we must stop fighting? Absolutely not.” 

Raddatz jumped in again and advised viewers that they should watch the complete interview over at Hulu. ABC News has plenty of time to make specials for “Pride Month” but apparently has no interest in covering (or even mentioning) the assassination attempt on Brett Kavanaugh during their flagship Sunday show. 

Carfax made this shameful bias possible. They are linked.

KARINE JEANPIERRE: This is my first position as a woman of color, who is also gay and immigrant. Without the generations of barriers-breaking individuals who came before me, I wouldn’t be where I am today. They are my inspiration. 

MARTHA RADDATZ Jean-Pierre and Gio Benitez, a correspondent for ABC News, sat down at the White House with Jean-Pierre to talk about her LGBTQ+ identity and how she is now in the position that she holds. 

GIO BENITEZ – We see so many laws in the country that are anti-LGBTQ+. As a mother, what are you thinking? 

JEAN-PIERRE I understand the laws, and feel sorry for those young people at school who want to simply be themselves. It’s that reason I am here: to keep fighting and making sure we deliver on our promises and improve people’s lives. 

JOE BIDDEN : I hope Congress also brings to my attention the Equality Act that will protect LGBTQ Americans. 

BENITEZ. President Biden is urging Congress to safeguard LGBTQ+ rights by passing legislation like the Equality Act. It passed in the House of Representatives, but was stalled in the divided Senate at 50/50. While the Equality Act has been called by the President the president’s top priority during his first 100 days in office, it has not yet been passed through Congress. Is he estimating how difficult that would prove to be? 

JEAN PIERRE: He misunderstood it. He was once a member of Congress. He is familiar with the workings of the Senate. It takes time, but he also knows that you must keep fighting for what is right. He is right to call on Congress for action. Will it take time? It will, unfortunately. However, does that mean we should stop fighting? It doesn’t. 

RADDATZ: Gio’s full interview with White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and the entire “Pride: to be Seen” special are streaming now exclusively on Hulu. We will be back.
