Jake Tapper brought Sheriff Israel from the Broward County Sheriff’s Department on ‘State of the Union’ for an interview this morning … and BOY did he interview him.
STARTING NOW: @jaketapper interviews @browardsheriff on @CNNSotu. #CNNSOTU

Take a look:
"We will get to the truth," Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel says, after @JakeTapper questions him about the armed school resource officer who stayed outside of Florida school during shooting #CNNSOTU https://t.co/XD7fLHiIeG

Israel doesn’t know anything except he should keep trying to blame the NRA for the shooting because it’s looking worse and worse for him and his department.
As reports emerge that Broward deputies received at least 18 calls about the Florida shooter prior to the shooting, Sheriff Scott Israel says "we will absolutely find out what we did or what we didn't do" #CNNSOTU https://t.co/Ey5M1vON4K https://t.co/DILhP9T72F

‘Um, I’m not sure what was done with that information. But Peterson did, uhh, report Cruz …’
They’ll find out what they did or didn’t do? Sure you will.
Before or after you apologize to Dana Loesch and the NRA for dumping them under the bus?
And he claims he only went to the Town Hall to advocate for expanding an officer’s ability to do more than write a report. Wow, could this guy be any more full of it? Wait, don’t answer that.
.@jaketapper doing his job this morning on #cnnsotu. Some journalistic integrity remains evidently.

It was actually really well done. Probably because Jake is tired of his outlet taking heat for allowing Israel to come to their Town Hall and blame Dana Loesch and the NRA for something they had nothing to do with.
.@browardsheriff on February 2016 tip reporting the shooter's Instagram threat to shoot up a school. "I'm not sure if anything was done with that information." #CNNSOTU

No kidding.
"Of course I won't resign," says Sheriff Scott Israel, after a Florida state representative calls for Gov. Rick Scott to remove Israel for "neglect of duty and incompetence" #CNNSOTU https://t.co/zp7l37uIzV

Of course, he won’t.
.@browardsheriff: "I've given amazing leadership to this agency." #CNNSOTU

If we rolled our eyes any harder we’d have to go to the ER.
Seriously.
Oh, and speaking of rolling eyes, check out the hysteria from gun-grabbers who were pissed at Jake for asking the sheriff REAL questions:
Chill out Jake. You weren’t asking tough questions. You were throwing accusations based on statements that were not based in facts. Felt like I was watching Fox and not what I’d expect from your professionalism. #CNNSOTU #chilloutjake https://t.co/JDbWMT7BHG

Waaaaah! You didn’t kiss the sheriff’s butt this time!
Holy Shit! #CNNSOTU are you going to spent the whole hour stumping for the @NRA distraction agenda?

Seriously, this is delicious.
#CNNSOTU Looking forward to watching you do the SAME type of incisive questioning of #NRA representatives and firearms/2A advocates, @jaketapper.

You know, we give Jake a lot of flack but when he does something right, we also try and give him credit where it’s due.
And it’s due today.
Thanks, Jake.
