Dan Rather throws objectivity out the window in unhinged partisan rant on SCOTUS

Dan Rather threw objectivity out the window — not that we suspected he was anything other than a liberal all these years — in an unhinged Facebook rant where he accused Mitch McConnell of orchestrating some sort of coup that prevented Obama from filling the SCOTUS vacancy and the election of Donald Trump:

He then excerpted a part of it for this tweet where he talks about the “will of the majority can still hold sway”:

Justice Kennedy retiring… If you are deeply disturbed, absorb the shock. But respond with even more determination. If you see this as a fight for the future of democracy, let those in power know that the will of the majority can still hold sway. https://t.co/lcKhiAgKao

Oh, please. So much for the “journalist” label:

OR…if you are an actual journalist, report on this objectively. https://t.co/vHtxJYU0z8

Next Rather will tie Kennedy’s retirement to Putin:

BREAKING: Dan Rather has documents proving Justice Kennedy was forced to retire by the Russians. He will expose them as soon as he's done typing them up. https://t.co/sjaZ4h32dg

But we always knew this is who Rather was:

I know you're not gonna believe this but @DanRather has always been a left wing partisan hack. https://t.co/XQyGSB2SPb

And regarding the “will of the majority,” just like the Founders intended, right Dan?
