Michelle Malkin Under Fire For ‘Attacking’ The ‘Ghost Of John McCain’ During CPAC Speech

Usually, Ash and I would be at CPAC. We weren’t able to make it this year for various reasons, but we’re excited about OTHER things to come, so stay tuned for all of that. 😉

ANYWAY. Michelle Malkin was one of the speakers this year. She’s facing a ton of backlash for speaking out against the “ghost of John McCain” during her CPAC speech.

“I have been accused of being a ‘grifter’… but it’s the GOP sellouts, not just the radical open borders left, that is in bed with immigration saboteurs. Like the ones who hijacked the tea party movement to shill for amnesty. Those are the real grifters,” Malkin said. “Cashing in and practicing deceit at the expense of their base and the expense of our country.”

“And yes I’m looking at you retired Paul Ryan,” she said. “And yes I’m looking at you Mitch McConnell. And yes I’m looking at you, Bush family. And yes I’m looking at you, the ghost of John McCain.”

The reactions are mixed. The people who loved it REALLY loved it, and the people who hated it REALLY hated it.

See what I mean?
