Jim Acosta - ‘Fact Check’ About ‘Pocahontas’ Being a Racial Slur

Perhaps out of order, but I saved the best one for last! :)

CNN’s Jim Acosta ROASTED for Fake ‘Fact Check’ About ‘Pocahontas’ Being a Racial Slur

CNN’s Jim Acosta never learns. Instead of reporting the facts, something Acosta’s network is challenged at doing, the “reporter,” tries to play ‘Mr. Moral Authority,’ and fails every single time.

After Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders denied the term ‘Pocahontas,’ used by the President in reference to Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) at an event with Navajo Code Talkers, Acosta ‘fact checked,’ that the term is in fact racist. Acosta provided no proof of a fact check, of course.

“WH press sec says “Pocahontas” is not a racial slur. (Fact check: it is.),” tweeted Acosta.

As The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft reported, during the ceremony to honor these American patriots Trump jabbed fake Indian Elizabeth Warren.


President Trump: I just want to thank you because you’re very, very special people. You were here long before any of us were here. Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas. And you know what? I like you because you are special.

Of course, the liberal media thought this was the worst comment made in television.

After Acosta’s non-existent fact check, he was roasted on Twitter.

Acosta is a Racial Slur to the Human Race. He makes other humans look as dumb as he is. NBC is a Racial Slur as well....By making REAL networks look FAKE.

So, and to add onto it... And this is hilarious! She is spot on correct. Why isn't anyone offended by Warren lying via heritage in order to get herself a position? But as said, this isn't a "racist" comment. It's just liberals angry that she is continually being pointed out over her lie! :laugh:

Sarah Huckabee Sanders TORCHES Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren

Fearless warrior Sarah Huckabee Sanders absolutely torched fake Indian Elizabeth Warren after the liberal press pool came unglued over Trump’s ‘Pocahontas’ slam.

Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren got super triggered after President Trump slammed her Monday calling her Pocahontas while honoring Native American code talkers.

“You were here long before any of us were here. Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas,” Trump told Native American code talkers during a ceremony.

Liberals came unhinged!

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders torched fake Indian Elizabeth Warren after the press pool implied President Trump was being “offensive” and used a “racial slur” when he slammed Pocahontas for lying about her Native American heritage.

“I think what most people find offensive is Senator Warren lying about her heritage to advance her career,” Sanders said.

BOOM!

Setting aside whether or not Trumps use of the name Pocahontas racially insensitive, offensive, or a slur...


Not a one of you takes issue with the President using the occasion, meant to honor veterans and true heroes, for a petty dig at a political foe? Really? He steals a moment that should have been about those men and their contributions to winning the war in the Pacific and makes it about himself and Elizabeth Warren. WTF? Warren is a nobody, let it fucking go.


Acosta is an ass, that's not news...

Of course, I suppose it's not news that Trump is an egotistical narcissist either...

He's long spoken out for them and others, all and any type of veterans. I have no issue with him using a few minutes of that time to take a dig at Warren.

I don't take it that they are fond of someone passing themselves off as one of their own either, and maybe even someone is glad to see her called out. She has long since held herself up as Native American. And then has since long been an opponent and bashing Trump.

I am on the same side as him. I agree with most of what he says about her. ---- But you're correct, that aside, the time he set aside to honor them, should have been just that, time set aside to honor them. Not the proper place and time.

Of course, I suppose it's not news that Trump is an egotistical narcissist either...Put it in perspective. The headline is "Warren Accuses Trump of Racial Slur". Immediate focus goes to whether or not it is a racial slur. The Navaho's, a bunch of lefties, have weighed in saying his comment was racially insensitive.

I don't disagree with your POV. Unprompted, I'd say it was uncalled for. So was Warren and the MSM immediate sensationalizing of it. But, name any recent issue where the actual issue hasn't been completely lost. Honoring Navajo Codetalkers.

As is the pathological desire for Democrats and their supporters to defend folks like Warren and her lies, and to defend folks like Franken, Conyers & Clinton.

The WH is doing just fine. Even better with a 19 foot Christmas tree in there. And with CHRISTMAS being there. And with beautiful Melania standing next to that beautiful tree!! :)

Oh, come on now petey. We all know...you're just pissed because the President reminds you of YOU so much with his tweets. You can call it a circus if you want. But you can't CHANGE THE TRUTH.

Jim, what part of that native american ceremony was it appropriate for Trump to go all high school on Warren? The answer is not ever. It's so god damn childish. Save it for after.

Hillary Lost, by the way.

You are really a sad example the Dems parade here on DP.

[jimnyc]

Nice vision of america you got there. A presidency of spite.

America has been on an upswing in so many areas, but all the democrats and supporters can think of is petty things that Trump does, or even doesn't do. Outside of that, all looks just great to me.

Funny thing is, liberals and folks like yourself, the arguments here there and everywhere - none on the left ever touch the topic of Warren - just point at Trump and ignore - once again - anything that may be wrong on their own side. He pointed out the truth, but in a rather not so nice sarcastic way. Watching those that are liars getting pegged, somehow feels right, even if said in a way you don't like. Someone actually SAID IT, and in a way that MANY saw. Sucks when such things can't be avoided or denied, huh? :)

My vision of America is a vision of positive things all the way around, in all sectors if possible. We will NEVER see perfection, from any president, ever, IMO. Trump is far from that, on various levels. But he brought forth the lack of giving into political correctness, which I love, but that can be a double edge sword at times. But I'll take it since he wins on so many levels, and drives liberals to craziness on so many other levels!!

Making America great again, petey, making America great again! :thumb::beer:

Imagine that, Trump actually spoke to a descendant of Pocahontas previously and asked about if him using the name bothered her. And one of the code talkers was asked - said it didn't bother him, nor did it bother him when he was jumping out of airplanes in the Marines and they forced him to yell 'Geronimo'.

--

Descendant Of Pocahontas Not Offended By Trump

It turns out that an actual descendant of Pocahontas does not take any offense to President Donald Trump jokingly referring to Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”

In a September interview with Sky News, Debbie “White Dove” Porreco said that Trump once asked her if it offended her that he used the name “Pocahontas” to refer to the Democratic senator.

“I know that he uses ‘Pocahontas’ sometimes with Elizabeth Warren,” Porreco explained. “He said, ‘well does that offend you when I use that?’ And I told him no, it doesn’t offend me.”

Navajo Code Talker Breaks Silence After Trump Pocahontas Comment – What He Says, Wow

President Trump began a media firestorm Monday after referring to Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas” at a ceremony honoring Navajo code talkers.

“I just want to thank you because you are very, very special people. You were here long before any of us were here. Although, we have a representative in Congress who has been here a long time, longer than you, they call her ‘Pocahontas.'”

Warren responded to the president, calling the comments a “racial slur.”

At Monday’s White House press briefing, Sarah Sanders was asked about the comments and if she thought they were offensive. Sanders said:

“I think what most people find offensive is Senator Warren lying about her heritage to advance her career.”

One voice that has been missing in the debate has been that of the code talkers honored in the ceremony.

eporter and writer Joshua Green met Thomas Begay, one of the code talkers honored Monday, on his way out of Washington, D.C. Green asked him about the event. Begay said he was “puzzled” about the comment but not offended.

Then Begay dropped a very non safe-space one liner:

“The Marines made us yell ‘Geronimo’ when we jumped out of planes and that didn’t offend me either.”
