Keith Ellison spent the week scolding a political opponent for the scandal of owning stocks, which makes the CNN clip now racing around X a little inconvenient.
In it, a reporter asks the people’s lawyer why attorneys general keep accepting junkets underwritten by corporate interests: five-star hotels, first-class seats, a South Africa safari, wine tours.
Ellison’s answer is that this is just how reporters try to embarrass politicians, that Minnesota somehow needs him on those trips, and then he shuts the interview down while still staring at the microphone. The account posting it did not have to editorialize much.
The walk-off did the work.
🚨 BREAKING: Keith Ellison was just EXPOSED by CNN for taking lavish overseas trips paid for by corporate lobbyists. - Five-star hotels - First-class flights - African safari tours - AND MORE Ellison appears visibly upset that they’re even asking about the trips. He abruptly ends the interview while staring down the reporter. Earlier this week, he attacked Ron Schutz for simply owning stocks. Meanwhile, Ellison is accepting lavish trips funded by the very companies he’s suing. WOW!

@GrageDustin @EstergrenSue The MN GOP still won’t use this in its ads. They won’t play to win. They still wont concentrate on statewide voter turnout. They will just go through the motions.

We seem to have that same problem in Virginia. *cough cough*
@GrageDustin CNN asked a question to a Democrat that wasn't rigged, biased or wrapped in cotton wool? Holy shite 😳
