Several days ago, Stephen L. Miller — aka @RedSteeze — made the following observation about media priorities:
That wasn’t well-received by Keith Olbermann, who responded by saying that Biden didn’t say that thing that he said on video:
He said “Negro Leagues,” you cretin. They were segregated baseball leagues – kept that way by Republicans – and one was literally called “The Negro National League”
— Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) November 17, 2021
Miller responded this way:
Keith, are you allowed to tweet on your shift?

As for Olbermann’s other claims, yeah, not so much:
“kept that way by Republicans”
HAHAHAHA no https://t.co/Jt33M8xnom

Since Mr. Sportscaster here doesn’t seem to know. Keeping black folks out of baseball was an agreement amongst the owners and NOT a law. Oh and Branch Rickey was a conservative Republican you complete potato https://t.co/H5e3ByJS9G

You know there’s video, right?

Just for the record, here’s exactly what Biden said:
Recommended
"…I’ve adopted the attitude of ***the great Negro*** — at the time, pitcher in the Negro Leagues — went on to become a great pitcher in the pros — in the Major League Baseball after Jackie Robinson. His name was Satchel Paige."

Imagine what Olbermann would have been saying if that came from the mouth of Donald Trump.
Olbermann, however, is never giving up:
All of you are either dishonest brokers in this scam, or you’re the targets of the scam. In either case, welcome to the wrong end of Dunning-Kruger Effect. Enjoy wallowing in your stupidity https://t.co/CYLBBj8m6U
