MSNBC Equates Banning Kids From Drag Shows to Killing LGBTQ People

On Tuesday’s Deadline for White HouseMSNBC’s Nicole Wallace, MSNBC’s host, once again demonstrated that she is capable of twisting facts and distorting reality in order to promote her left-wing agenda. This indisputable fact was on display when she gathered her panel of miscreants to discuss the troubling incident over the weekend where over thirty men linked to the white supremacist “Patriot Front” were arrested in an attempt to disrupt a “Pride Month” event. 

Wallace and his associates reacted to the violence, rather than blaming a group deranged racists. Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart suggested it is part of a trend of “anti-LGBTQ hate” from Republicans like Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis and others. 

“AP writes this, last month a fundamentalist Idaho pastor told his small Boise congregation that gay, lesbian, and transgender people should be executed by the government. Another fundamentalist pastor in Texas gave similar sermons,” Wallace said using an extreme example of hatred that nobody endorses. 

She then wailed that “Heather Scott, an Idaho Republican lawmaker recently told an audience that drag queens and other LGBTQ supporters are waging, quote, ‘a war of perversion against our children,’ end quote.” Wallace then bemoaned how “Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said he would consider sending child protective services to investigate parents who take their kids to drag shows.” 

The suggestion is that because DeSantis wants to protect children from sexually explicit “drag shows”, a group of white supremacists and a fringe Idaho pastor want to kill LGBTQ people. 

Capehart responded by recommending people “call out those elected officials, those public officials who are engaging in the rhetoric, engaging in pushing and signing the legislation that targets the LGBTQ community.” 

Continuing his ranting, Capehart claimed, “the attacks on gender identity and the LGBTQ community are…having an impact.”  

MSNBC made it possible for MSNBC to compare the protection of children against inappropriate sexual content with the murder of LGBTQ persons. Progressive. The information of both is linked.

6/14/2022
Eastern, 4:42:35

NICOLE WALLACE: AP writes this, last month a fundamentalist Idaho pastor told his small Boise congregation that gay, lesbian, and transgender people should be executed by the government. Similar sermons were delivered by a Texas fundamentalist pastor. A representative from Idaho Republican, Heather Scott recently stated that drag queens, and others who support LGBTQ people, are fighting a war against our children. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced last week that he might send child protective services into Florida to question parents taking their kids to drag show. Jonathan Capehart says this isn’t a temporary measure. You can see an alternative reality. Was this Kellyanne Conway? Alternative facts 

JONATHAN CAPAPEHART: Other facts. 

WALLACE: It is an alternative universe full of hatred, intolerance and violence that asks the government for execution. This is more than flashing red. How do we deal with this? 

CAPEHART (Well, number one), we must continue to talk about it. Frank’s suggestion was to call out elected officials and public officials involved in pushing for and signing legislation targeting the LGBTQ community.
