Only Wednesday press conference about the tragic school shooting in Uvalde featuring Texas Governor Gregg Abbot was commencing, it was rudely interrupted by Democratic gubernatorial candidate Robert Francis O’Rourke who attempted to upstage the event. This was a politically inappropriate stunt done by a loser candidate. Janet Shamlian from CBS reports that it was staged by O’Rourke’s campaign.
Shamlian recounts what she saw just a few feet away as she was sitting at the media conference.

This case of transparency by a CBS journalist on the events at the press conference caused outrage among many leftists. This is one example.
Not only must this tweet be removed immediately, but a public retract and apology should also be made. @CBSNews @JanetShamlianYou should be ashamed and embarrassed by this coverage. It is a disgraceful act.

This moment of sobriety, as we observed on Wednesday from a solid journalist came amid a sea liberal activism on gun controls and giving uncritical oxygen O’Rourke’s act.
