As Twitchy told you, CNN political analyst Brian J. Karem fangirled over Sally Field when she found a twisted way to defend Samantha Bee calling Ivanka Trump a “feckless c*nt.” Needless to say, Karem didn’t do CNN any favors with his take on the Bee mess.
But you know who did? Brooke Baldwin. This afternoon, she absolutely tore into Samantha Bee — and into anyone excusing Bee’s vulgarity just because Ivanka Trump represents the political opposition:

liberals’ double standards
I had my nearly exact comment removed as a sweeping generalization for saying that. I won't repost my full comment as it could be a coh violation.
I will, however, be looking to see if the comments calling everyone to the right of Stalin, Mao, or Pol Pot a nazi, bigot are removed. Should be interesting. (LOL) as it brings back unpleasant memories of Newsvine.
Obama is a Kenyan Muslim. Rice is an ape. Michelle O a gorilla in heels. Yep. Double standards.
It's not a contest to see who is worse. Wrong is wrong.
Justify nothing. This is where we are. Live with it or change it.
I do not believe you.
To call a female the "c" word is most despicable. And, after that is the "mf" word.
All Ivanka did was post a photo of her with her child.
Then WHY does Trump insist on going LOWER and LOWER?
What happened to her freedom of speech? How far down that list is pussy grabbing?
The left are the ones setting the new standards for low. Despite what Hillary said I haven't seen any Dems "go high".
Oooo, Trump won't like that you aren't giving him the credit that he deserves.
That was Michelle Obama and if you go watch the video of the speech in which she made that statement you will see a Democrat 'go high'.
If it weren't for double standards, the Democrats wouldn't have any standards at all. To think about it, they don't.
I think comedians tend at times to lose track of the line that should be drawn between what is "acceptable" in public and what is not. They want to go right up to the line but sometimes fall over it.
It's hard to feel sympathy for any Trump though, they all have had a hand in enabling this insane presidency.
Hopefully Samantha Bee will do better next time.
Oh, so you want Samantha Bee to have a "next time"? You weren't so forgiving of Roseanne Barr.
I doubt anyone seriously believes that Bee is a misogynist, or believes that Barr isn't a racist, an antisemite and a gullible right-wing conspiracy theorist.
Samantha Bee didn't make a comment that degraded an entire race of people. She insulted one person.
If Roseanne had said something like "VJ is a bitch (or cunt) because she supports Black Lives Matter" nothing would have happened to her, except maybe calls for her to apologize. Instead her comment denigrated an entire group of people.
Roseanne is sort of the queen bee of celebrity conspiracy nuts. It is indicative of the frame of mind of so many of her followers that they think all that shit is defensible in any way shape or form.
So you equate racism with foul language?
You seem to equate sexism with foul language.
It's not all about the language, its about the intent and everything else that goes into it. Why are some people having a hard time looking at the body of behavior? Sometimes more complex thought goes into things, not just that black and white comparison of words. And bad words are NOT the same as racism. Higher perspectives are required to deepen understanding.
And whom decides what is what ?
Exactly WHAT lead you to that conclusion?
We all do, individually and collectively. Have you been paying attention to how this works? Sometimes there is a big societal swing that brings awareness and attention to an issue, and what was 'in' one day can flip on a dime. Happened with gay rights and sexual harrassment.
But the republican problem here is that they all actually were drawn to Trumps bad language and hatefulness. You (collectively) seeded it, celebrated it and defend it - until it gives 'you' a reason to go into fake outrage when a liberal says it. The right is really not in a position to be outraged after what you all find acceptable from Trump and his supporters. Suck it fucking up.
"WE"...as in liberal/Progressive types ?
By the way....you CAN'T be an "Individual" and in a "Collective" at the same time.
Of course you can. All NY co-ops are collectives and they are all full of individuals with plenty of individuality...
No you can't.
"Collective" is ALL about people coming together, thinking the same !
Just look at your own example. Everyone is all about "The Same Goal" ! What happens to the "Individual" that bucks the "Collective System" and wants a bit of a "Change"? They were part of the "Collective" after all. Do they get thrown out for NOT like think ?
col·lec·tive (kə-lĕk′tĭv)
adj.
1. Assembled into or viewed as a whole.
2. Of, relating to, characteristic of, or made by a number of people acting as a group: a collective decision.
I do not see "individual" noted in that definition....do you ?
I dare you tell that the hundreds of thousands of farmers that are in 'collectives' all over this country.
Collective:
NOUN
a cooperative enterprise.
Gladly !
oooooo, I is asceeeeeeerd !
They get paid from Tax Payer dollars to "NOT TO PRODUCE" !
"Mr. and Mrs. Collective Farmer.....YOU are NOT Individuals" !
Does that make you "Feel" better ?
I know.....right ?
it just ain't there.
Hi Giggles.
By the way....a "physical body" does not make an "Individual" !
How odd.. i always thought groups were made up of individuals and a collective is a group... interesting..
it doesn't ? my physical body makes me an individual whether i'm apart of a group or not... i'm a member of the NewsTalkers collective (on this website as is everyone who posts), yet i'm an individual... very interesting...
Yes. It's always gratifying to watch you implode, as you so often do.
Corporations are 'collectives' my friend.
So cute.
Gotta luv the "Left" when "Personal" (Just like Bee) is all they have "Left" as an argument.....literally !
Tissue?
BTW, my comment wasn't 'an argument, it was a reply to you question.
Your "Mind" makes you the individual. EVERYONE has a physical Body ! It's all the rage. They even provide clothes to fit that body of yours. Your "Personal" preferences as to selection of colors, style, fit, etc....is all up to what you "Think" though.
Ain't that a hoot ?
i guess they only have one "mind" according to some posters and aren't made up of individuals with lots of different thoughts or ideas or physical bodies.
so there are no groups with individuals in them ? does that mean this website - The NewsTalkers - which is a collective or "group" has no individuals ? ain't it a hoot ?
NewsTalkers is a Business Entity Name, with folks just a talkin' in all different directions !
I Only see a few "Collective" subsets high fiving each other, but definitely not a "Collective" overall.
Do you need one ?
I can run to CVS if you need me to.
Why would you run to a 'collective', no 'individually' owned pharmacies in your hood?
um.... you do realize that a collective is a group of individuals that share a common issue or interest, right ? looks like NewsTalkers is a collective made up of individuals after all.... ain't it a hoot ?
And that would beeeeeeee
Just "Being" here in Soul ? 
oh i'm sure you are aware that we are all physical bodies behind our computer screens and still apart of this collective website with our accounts that we set up using our physical bodies to operate the computer and it's keyboard , right ? i guess i shouldn't assume, huh ?
Funny how you actually think.....our "Bodies" actually think.
Oh.....and move all by themselves too ?
Weird !
You asked, and I, as an "Individual" sensing your need of help, offered something to you, now your trying the "chastise thingy" ?
Now I get why the "Left" thinks "Bee" is a HERO !
Bricks are only 2" thick. Try "Block" next time. They are 8" Thick.
wait a minute ... do you think that human bodies don't contain the head or what's inside of it (that it seems some people are missing ) ? interesting... I guess when people talk about human bodies ( in science or forensics etc ) - they are just referring to everything below the neck in your world huh ?
I really have to learn my lesson on assuming other posters are somewhat intelligent ... *sigh*
it seems to be a defense mechanism intentionally done to avoid possible embarrassment or admittance to being incorrect on a subject - it's a way to try to turn the conversation around to confuse other posters and make the original poster look "smart" instead of looking foolish. seems to be an awful lot of trouble in my opinion
OMG, I didn't say they were the same. Way to miss the point, as usual. Individuals form opinions over everything (MICRO). When you look at the bigger picture, the wider perspective of individuals that make up society there is a MACRO opinion. Is that simple enough or should I spend more time on the lesson? I left out a little to challenge you.
Really ?
Have I not said the "Brain" …...is the thing when it comes to individuality ?
Your the one on this "Body" importance.
Anything to make us all "Smarter"....right ?
OMG......You did ! "Individuals", as you note them, only makes a "Body" !
You're expecting far too much from conservatives.
Look up the definitions of collective, there is more than one. And instead of deflecting and acting confused, address what was said. This 'collective' ignorance from republicans as they try to change the conversation is pathetic.
I, and most others, have NO EXPECTATIONS from the LEFT anymore. They have this thing coming out everyday to show us they have nothing. "Crying" for "Illegals", "MS13 Luv", Degrading Women (Cunt comes to mind), wearing "Pussy" costumes in protest (the innocent children were there), Calling EVERY NON-LEFTY AMERICAN racist and deplorable, Eliminating anything historical they don't like that has to do with "America", Bring Tax Hikes back, People with money owe those that don't work, etc.......
The "Left" doesn't even have "affirmative Action" anymore. #BLM has dropped out of site, and even the NFL is putting their foot down.....finally.
And which definition did YOU Choose ?
Careful now, you could upset the "Collective" with YOUR choice.
I'm not in the mood to do a board book for you, your deflections and inability to debate this is duly noted.
So..... you didn't choose a particular definition and this was your way out ?
geee... and i think the "Brain" is part of the "Body" , isn't it ?
*sigh*
Baldwin then played a series of clips of Keith Olbermann, who is famous for his over-the-top condemnations. The litany of insults in the clips she plays, as well as in her additional summary after the clips, was impressive in both scope and variety. After the long set of examples is run through, Baldwin says “Despite all of this, he just got another plum job. A job, ironically, at the same company that just booted Roseanne for violating its values.
It's truly amazing what slaves corporations like Disney are to the extreme left.
Sean, you are supposedly an intelligent guy. Unless Olbermann insults conservatives on the basis of their height, age, or skin color, it is not the same thing as what Roseanne did. Valerie Jarrett's skin color is an immutable feature of her identity. Being a Republican, conservative, or slimeball is not.
A year and a half after Hillary Clinton essentially left the national stage we still see "conservative" comedians and rabble rousers attack her appearance and mannerisms etc just about every day. And I'm sure she has been called c--t more than a time or two or two thousand along the way.
what slaves corporations like Disney are to the extreme left.
Just in on twitter. Just an honest mistake? oh, I'm sure (LOL)
Google is so popular it is a verb these days, people ‘Google’ things. You do a Google. Things can be worth a Google.
So you’d think they would be front and center to apologize for their site listing Nazism as one of the key ideologies of the California Republican Party.
Are Republicans in Cali planing some evil shit for the Jewish population? are they planning a "blitzkrieg" into Poland? deploying subs into the north Atlantic to isolate Brittion? Conquer Russia. Invade France for looted art from the louver Museum?
Or has the American left given up on the concept of reasoned debate and are replacing it, with straight up slander of their political opponents? You know, like real nazi's did.
How many times just today has a member of this site used "nazi" to slander their political opponents? It is not healthy!! I tell you it is not.
from The Daily Beast :
This is from Boston University School of economic theory. It lists various nazi economic theories. If you dig through you can find all economic theories. But on this page, I don't believe a single policy would fit republican intentions.
What party does it in fact resemble. not in theory, but in point of fact. I would place a very large wager on the fact that close to half, if not the majority of Dems would fully endorse every economic theory on the linked page. It is primary source material. Not what someone says is nazi ideology, it is verbatim nazi ideology. I don;t blame them, no one taught them what nazi ideology was. As it may tarnish some deeply held beliefs of the left.
"We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." --Adolf Hitler
(Speech of May 1, 1927. Quoted by Toland, 1976, p. 306)
Just what exactly does your comment have to do with the topic?
You inject a lot of stuff into your posts that usually having nothing to do what's being discussed.
Lets all get hung up on the ' c word ' in the age of Trump while we conveniently forget the reason Ms. Bee excoriated Ms. Ivanka in the first place.
The right wing has no memory. The left wing has no guts.
Am I not correct that the Nazis separated children from their parents?
The Nazis kicked in doors in the middle of the night and pulled out LEGAL residents and separated them. People who choose to flaunt our laws and abuse our system are ILLEGAL trespassers. Chalk up another example of bad historical analogies by the left.
No and no. The former 'legal residents' were deemed illegal under new Nazi law.
The Nazis took innocent people and killed them. The United States uses the right to sovereignty- which every country on the planet has the right to use- to make sure no one comes in illegally. If you can't see the difference between the two and want to compare our government to Nazi Germany and our Border Patrol to the Gestapo then that says a lot more about you than anything else.
Says somebody who doesn't even care about Trumps flaunting laws and abusing our system (and in fact spreads Trumps obstructive lies)! Not to mention he and his supporters say things just as bad. The difference is RACISM. Which too many don't want to 'get'. How soon they forget.
And this is where all of-------this started. MAGA
What laws has Trump broken specifically? I'll use the same standard the left applies to Hillary- he has not been indicted, arrested or charged with anything. Mueller is desperate and coming up empty on Trump. As for racism you'd probably be surprised to find the largest demographic against illegal immigration are African Americans.
OMG, here we go again. First, look back at the Benghazi investigations. Just for groundwork. They went on even when they FOUND NOTHING.The point is investigating wrongdoing, which is what Mueller is doing. Trump has all kinds of nefarious connections to Putin and Russia, often via his people in and out of the campaign (which is how he got caught up in this in the first place, by the way, he spends an inordinate amount of time with those connections, as do his closest people). Trump has OPENLY invited Russia to help him, also trying behind closed doors. He is making money off the office, open pay for play going on as well. All warranting investigation. But the most open and obvious is his obstruction. And you can't hide that, it is going on right in front of the eyes of the world. So when Mueller is done, you will know. Meantime, stop the damn whining about investigations republicans love more than anything. Have the balls to reap what you've sown. Trump is NOT ABOVE THE LAW.
Mueller is desperate according to who? He already has 19 indictments.
Trump asking for Russia to track down Hillarys illegally deleted emails (which was a joke) wouldn't have happened if Hillary hadn't illegally deleted those emails in the first place. And good luck with that obstruction charge. Trump himself has not been personally under investigation and had every legal right to fire Comey. The only people who would call that impeachable would be people who would impeach Trump for spitting on the sidewalk.
Mueller has indictments against mostly Russian trolls, three companies (one which doesn't actually exist and one that got a delay denied by the Mueller team), two crooked lobbyists who broke the law BEFORE they ever met Trump and two perjury traps. A small return for the millions wasted and time consumed.
1) Samantha Bee is not wrong.
2) The right was fine with it when Rosanne Barr called Hillary a, "Cee yoU Next Tuesday", now they are outraged because Samantha Bee said the same thing about Ivanka? Poor little snowflakes... tissue?
I don't remember that....thanks for bringing it up again
Ivanka Trump, just like her idiot father, hypocrite.
MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Poorly made, expensive foot wear that will fall apart the first time you wear them in a rain storm
Samantha Bee was just being non-PC. The right wing HATES PC, so why all the bitching?
Because it was rude and disgusting.
You mean, non-pc.... The right wing keeps yelling and screaming that the left are all, "snowflakes", need a "safe space", "screaming at the sky", "tissue"... etc etc etc etc....on and on and on.... But Bee slams Ivanka and now all the sudden "non-pc" isn't ok anymore? Being rude isn't ok anymore? After all the BS that flows out of trumps cocksucker on a daily basis, Bee's comment ISN'T ok? Seriously...WTF??!
Was Ivanka offended? Who cares, maybe "she is just bleeding out of her whatever"?
You point out the problem they have trying to find a place of moral superiority when their hero is Donald Trump. It is impossible.
Mags, you supported that pedophile in Alabama, the pussygrabber (who uses the word), and the fact Trump is non-pc! How the hell do you suddenly care about Sam Bee? I don't like the c word either, but it is no different than bitch, which I use. It is just ridiculous for you all to get the vapors over c*nt while you have no problem with actual crimes to go with the words. Explain how you define pc and non-pc and how they are different for you here. Don't forget all the Trump supporters who use the word with nary a mention by any of you.
SB is is pretty on point ALWAYS. I have no doubt that Ivanka really is a total cunt. It's certainly not even close to the first time people have noted her terrible disposition. I'm just sad that SB actually apologized. I would have kept after it personally.
That is horrible and you have the audacity to be the holier than thou on race? Wow
Most people understand they are two completely separate things. You can't justify your racism by deflecting.
It's always worked here before. /s
lol
You can't choose your race but you can choose to be a cunt or not be a cunt.
isn’t the government demanding a show be canceled … censorship? https://www. thedailybeast.com/white-house-de mands-tbs-cancel-samantha-bees-show?via=twitter_page …
White House Demands TBS Cancel Samantha Bee’s Show
“Those words should not have been aired,” TBS wrote after Bee apologized for her remarks about Ivanka Trump.
thedailybeast.comI'm demanding that America cancel the putrid reality show being broadcast from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. every day.
Jah. Plus, using their political position to affect a business is illegal to my knowledge.
Sarah Sanders has really lost all ability or right to criticize anyone.
Agreed.
what a terrible thing
saving our auto industry turned out to be,,,,
sometimes required whence used correctly
Trump can't use anyone or anything correctly
Remind me. Who is president currently? I'm not living in the past. You might consider a similar outlook. Why you guys always justify bullshit by citing alleged events in the past I will never understand. One thing has nothing to do with the other. If you think Obama was guilty of improprieties, then pursue that. Don't use it as an excuse for why Trump and/or his staff should be allowed to continually break laws.
Was I silent? I don't remember that. As I recall, I always state my opinion. Silent is not something I've ever really been accused of lol.
Side effect right? Trump wanting to effect Amazon to get a slap a Bezo's even if it destroyed the Postal system Personal grudge! Bypassing all the rules and protocols for issuing pardons that are designed to prevent the abuse of the power and the abuser is sending messages through the action the his co conspirators are safe if they keep the traps shut. Another comparison to Obama is due.
I think you should provide some examples of my alleged "cheerleading everything Obama". As of now, you have been all hype and no substance with your posts. No better time than now to effect change in that regard.
I'd also like you to provide valid examples of Obama being the same as Trump, since it also relates directly to your claims.
Ball is in your court.
But it was ok to use the word "cunt" in regards to Hillary - gotcha.... This shit STINKS!
The outrage from President Trump supporters is completely disengenuous. This woman only tried speaking the language that thrills and excites the President's base. Are we to believe that they suddenly have found their common decency?
Sorry but I'm not that gullible. If the base can tolerate the President's vulgar hateful speech and tweets in between his promotion of grabbing pussies then I feel confident this little rant is childs play.
Uh, no.
Samantha Bee apologized to Ivanka Trump.
Now it’s time for Donald Trump to apologize to all of the people he’s insulted & attacked:
Disabled Reporter
NFL Players
Haitians
Nigerians
Mexicans
Women
Trans Troops
Immigrants
Obama
Hillary
The FBI
The Press
Democrats
American People
