Seems she was a bit perturbed (heh) with New York Times’ David Brooks … and the leftist media in general.
This thread.
Wow.
The corrupt disgustingly vile @nytdavidbrooks , as with all journalists, has to distort and lie about what I say in order to reduce me to your vision of dumb right wing nut job. David, you elderly queer, this is a complete and total misrepresentation of what I said. You’re

Meep.
We love her point about how they have to reduce people to their own lazy and quite frankly boring stereotypes of people on the Right.

THIS is how you take down a lying lefty propagandist!
