Is this poetic justice or karma? Breitbart fired Katie McHugh from Breitbart News on Monday after she wrote on Twitter that “there would be no deadly terror attacks in the U.K. if Muslims didn’t live there” after a terror attack in London. Now she is begging the public for money.
Katie McHugh fired from Breitbart News
If anyone doubts this woman’s level of racism, consider reading the RawStory article “‘Slaves built the US the way cows built McDonald’s’ — and other historical ‘facts’ from Katie McHugh.”
One of the lesser known hires from the DC is Katie McHugh who was brought over to “aggressively and insightfully tell the stories that are shaping our political and cultural experience,” according to Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow. Or, as McHugh put it: “I’m very proud to join the Breitbart News Network to reshape the American political conversation by airing out all the facts.” And, having been promoted to front page editor after slightly more than a year, “reshaping” the conservation is exactly what she is doing by explaining history to America — one tweet at a time. … McHugh shared some amazing insights about immigrants in America, Muslims, slaves, Native-Americans, and Hispanics on the Twitter in her own whimsical way.
Here are a few of her vile tweets.
And some more.
DailyKos’ Walter Einenkel wrote the following.
News began coming out that even the racists at Breitbart were bummed out about McHugh’s idiotic timing, which means one of two things: the people at Breitbart just loathed her already and wanted an excuse to pile on or their public relations person decided sacrificing one bigoted barnacle from the Breitbart oil tanker of hate would help smooth the organization’s sailing. But things have taken a turn—for some schadenfreude.
I refuse to put a link from my site to her page begging for welfare that she has so attacked others for who have found themselves on hard times. But here is an image.
I am somewhat leaning to my less than best angels in gloating on this one. You see these people have such evil in their hearts they rarely see that more so than most they are more dependent on others. She strived as long as her vile was useful for Breitbart but like with any corporation when she became a drag on the company; she was expendable. Just like when the millions of employees in our country became too costly, infringing on the grotesque profits of the titans of finance, their jobs were outsourced or robotized, and they became expendable. The ultimate outcome is the same.
Will she learn? If her donation page does well, she won’t. When Katie is forced into lines with all the people she caricatured, she may not like them, but she will be one of them.
Writers like Katie McHugh and TV Personalities like Tomi Lahren are dangerous because they represent a young generation and influence the new generations. We expect racism to attenuate as older folks die. But a system that uses racism to keep people divided is fighting hard. They know it is the only way citizens will keep their eyes off of the ball, the few that are manipulating and pulling all the strings.
