CNN’s Chris Cuomo has several tweets today condemning President Trump and what has happened at the U.S. Capitol:
Too late. They are not peaceful- because you are not about peace. You can't control what you caused. And this is what you will he remembered for https://t.co/jX48y9LSnR

Those who stoked these flames must be remembered. They fed lies and moved people to exactly what we are seeing. #Remember https://t.co/z902jgRLy0

That sparked some to offer up a flashback of what Cuomo said during the spring and summer protests last year:
"Show me where it says protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful."

This Chris Cuomo clip from June has NOT aged well … ?

What does @ChrisCuomo think of what’s happening at the Capitol today?

The message from left wing media and politicians for several months has been clear: violence works.

Remember last summer when CNN was using MLK’s quote, “A riot is the language of the unheard” out of context in order to add fuel to the fire? I do.

In response, Cuomo has said “shame on you” to those using his June video on this day:
This is more sedition than speech. And it is on you. These people are acting on the animus put out by you fringe agitators. This is where demonizing and deception gets you. Even now, you spare trump and try to divide. Shame on you. https://t.co/MtYAmK9L20

How about maybe everybody agrees that protests should always be peaceful no matter where they take place and for whatever reason?
There was no excuse for what happened then, and there is obviously NO excuse for what is happening today, but the fact remains that leftists & the establishment media virtually condoned lawlessness in U.S. cities for months.
