Former Obamaton Jon Favreau is quite angry at how Washington, D.C. is responding to Michelle Wolf at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and thinks we should be talking more about Flint, Michigan’s water crisis:
Comedian ends comedy dinner by saying that Flint still doesn’t have clean water, an attempt to point out Washington’s continued neglect of people who need help.
Washington responds with a rigorous debate about the tone and civility of the comedian’s jokes.
Perfect.

Does he mean the Flint water crisis that his former boss already solved in 2014?
The Flint water crisis started in 2014. You're an idiot. https://t.co/uoaly8XNVK

Flint water crisis was in 2014 when your former boss was dropping microphones at the WHCD. Not much concern then. https://t.co/GcTaDuZvCA

Michael Moore even slammed Obama for his trip back then:
He went to Flint. Did nothing. Thousands depressed, mad. Here are my comments on CNN. It was hard for me 2 speak. https://t.co/RJZBhIdiEq

And Moore begged Obama to do more after Trump won the election. How’d that work out Jon Favreau?
My 2nd To-Do List: #7. President Obama: send the Army Corps of Engineers to Flint to replace the water pipes. The water is still unusable.

As for Favreau, Flint is so, so important to him that the one and only time he tweeted about before last night was back in 2016 to criticize Marco Rubio:
So maybe he should sit this one out.
