That laughter you hear when telling a joke in an echo chamber is your own.

MTV “culture” writer Ira Madison III found himself in hot water earlier today when he attempted to take a shot at AG hopeful Jeff Sessions with a racist attack on Sessions’ Asian American granddaughter. He went on to make it even worse with his B.S. defense for his shameful attack, essentially doubling down on his bigotry. Madison made it pretty clear that he wasn’t at all sorry for what he’d written, and why should he be? After all, the sort of racially charged attacks are kind of his M.O.
Check out this tweet from March 2016:

We’d call it unbelievable, but clearly for Madison, it’s just par for the course.
