As Twitchy told you yesterday, journalist Soledad O’Brien agreed with Buzzfeed editor Dorsey Shaw’s assessment of Meghan McCain’s comments about socialism on “The View”:

I had a lot of fun watching Meghan McCain completely melt down at the thought of Democratic Socialists coming for her inherited wealth pic.twitter.com/IFBkTKL4K6

McCain defended herself, and O’Brien thought it would be a good time to throw her resume into the argument:

Get a life Soledad – I’m passionate and don’t want my grandkids growing up in a socialist nation. https://t.co/qnYyREZUct

Hi @MeghanMcCain ! I have a (busy!) life—four kids, run a small business, anchor some tv shows, been an award winning journalist for a minute (not to brag ❤️). Watch you’re video. You were having a full-fledged freak out. It undermined your argument. You should work on that. https://t.co/yDUFjQ6QE3

Fox News’ Julie Banderas had seen enough:

Congrats @soledadobrien for getting the attention U were seeking in *your* tweet to @MeghanMcCain’s Twitter handle. You got mine. Not to brag but as an award winning journalist, mother of 3 and anchor of some tv shows myself, I applaud strong smart women. You should work on that. https://t.co/ckJV2ywSSk
