CNN Panel Goes Off the Rails When Scott Jennings Asks Why MN Democrats Cater to Somalis
“They’ve got the lieutenant governor up there dressed like the Handmaid’s Tale.”
Earlier this week, things went haywire on CNN when Scott Jennings, the lone conservative voice on the network, asked why Democrats in Minnesota bend over backwards for the Somali community in the state. Jennings noted Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan, who recently appeared on television dressed in a hijab.

Host Abby Phillips and other panelists lost their minds, and basically began accusing Jennings of racism.
FOX News reports:
CNN panel erupts when panelist asks why MN Democrats dress like ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ to appease Somali community
A CNN panel erupted on Monday night after a conservative commentator called out the Minnesota lieutenant governor for appearing to wear a hijab.
Minnesota Democratic Lt. Gov. and U.S. Senate candidate Peggy Flanagan appeared on a Somali TV station wearing what appears to be a hijab at a mall as a widespread fraud scandal implicating some Somali residents plagues the state…
“The catering to the Somali community that goes on by the Democrats in Minnesota is a little weird, is it not?” Scott Jennings asked. “They’ve got the lieutenant governor up there dressed like the Handmaid’s Tale.”
Jennings was referring to Margaret Atwood’s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” a dystopian novel about life under a totalitarian theocracy in which a class of women is forced to bear children amid a fertility crisis. Liberal protesters often wear the modest outfit with its red robes and bonnet as a visual shorthand to warn that America is about become that same type of dystopia.
“Why do they cater to them?” Jennings asked. “It’s such a small portion of the population. Democrats put them at the center of everything.”
CNN host Abby Phillip balked at comparing the hijab to the handmaids’ outfits.
“I don’t think it would be acceptable for you to make a statement like that about Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn. Why on earth is it acceptable to make a statement like that about people —,” Phillip responded.

The point Jennings is making is absolutely valid. You can’t claim Trump is turning the United States into the Handmaid’s Tale and then voluntarily put on a hijab and expect to be taken seriously.

The Democratic Party is a criminal organization on par with the American Mafia. Use the RICO Act to take this criminal conspiracy down.
The rest of the panel skipped past the ‘it’s not happening’ and the ‘it’s a good thing its happening’ phases going straight to the ‘you’re a racist for noticing’ phase.
“Call me whatever you like.., and when you’ve gotten that out of your system, answer my question.”
Raylan Givens: It must be hard for you at work?
Rachel: Because I am black and a woman?
Raylan: No, because you are stupid.
Identity politics is just a way to mask incompetence and corruption.
They dish it out, but sure can’t take it. Revealing how defensive and accusatory they become. They pretend to be above such things. Ha!
“Racist!” The cry of someone losing the argument and KNOWING they are losting it.
When it comes to fraud money and votes, Democrats will assume any position or wardrobe needed. So far no known ‘bondage’ tools and toys.
Clearly you have forgotten a certain dog and luggage fetishist.
I can’t believe that Fox hasn’t grabbed this guy and given him a prime time show
Frankly if a non-Jewish politician dressed up as an orthodox Jew I certainly would accuse them of pandering unless it was a Halloween costume.
Stupid brown people are pets. It started with blacks and generalizes to Palestinians and anybody else, provided they’re not smart and self-sufficient.
Asians don’t get much sympathy.
Asians are too busy making something of themselves; they’ve no time to snivel and moan.
If she were appearing before an Orthodox Jewish audience in Brooklyn, she’d be advised to dress modestly, but she would look completely unremarkable. Modest dress is the same way you would show up in court, or for an important meeting. For women, it means wear a conservative dress that covers the collar bone, elbows, and knees. That’s all.
There would be nothing to take a picture of and make fun of. No hijab. Orthodox Jewish women cover their hair only if they’re married, and often with a wig that can be mistaken for their own hair, so a visiting politician would not be expected to cover her hair at all. Even the most conservative Kreindel would assume she’s either single or wearing a wig.

Those wily burglars will be living high off this haul for the rest of their lives!
Just like USAID it’s money laundering back to Democrat politicians and left wing PACs. No one of importance will be prosecuted.
“CNN host Abby Phillip balked at comparing the hijab to the handmaids’ outfits.”
The Handmaid’s Tale was written to expose the treatment of women in the Islamic Republic of Iran, so the comparison isn’t just apt, IT WAS ALREADY THERE.
The left is just illiterate and ignorant, and think the book has something to do with the US.
When are those communist retards ever ON the rails?
