In the world of our toxic liberal media, there is perhaps no one dumber and who enjoys an unearned sense of self-esteem, than Jim Acosta of CNN.
During a recent segment on the little watched network, Acosta tried to mock Pete Hegseth and specifically Hegseth’s mother because she called a few senators to make a case for her son.
The worst part of this is that it was the liberal media that dragged Hegseth’s mom into this situation in the first place. The New York Times got their hands on some years-old emails from her and published them.
Then, when she tries to defend her son, this idiot on CNN mocks her for it.
Luckily, Republican strategist Shermichael Singleton was there to call out Acosta over this.

I think she did an outstanding job on Fox News and again, friends of mine that I have who actually work for Republican senators, and I’ve been talking to and texting with a lot of them to just understand where things appear to be moving from their perspective. These things are absolutely making a difference and I’ll just add quickly — Acosta: “But, I guess — I guess — I’m — you know —” Singleton: “I understand allegations have been made.”
Acosta: “— if — if you’re having to have your mother call senators —”
Singleton: “People should have the right to defend themselves.”
Acosta: “I know, but Shermichael —”
Singleton: “Go ahead, Jim.”
Acosta: “— to have to have your mother call senators to — to get you cleared for secretary of defense right? I mean he — he goes out there with tattoos —”
Singleton: “— I don’t think that’s a bad thing. I mean, so I’ll give you an example. I’ve gone through the confirmation process before having worked for a former cabinet secretary and you’re going to have statements from the spouse, from siblings —”

Smug and stupid Jim Acosta is just so pleased with himself. The incoming Trump administration should deny him access completely. Total blackout.
