CNN anchor Chris Cuomo got into it with a Jeffrey Lord, a CNN personality who was fired last year after posting a satirical tweet.
Cuomo originally tweeted:
Then take the risk of surrendering what in your mind (and your’s only) is your personal interest in denying the truth. the man by your side attacked our election. You swore an oath to protect us vs all enemies https://t.co/8lhPSJtkkr

Lord responded:
So did Obama, who mocked Romney for saying Russia was a threat at all? So did Hillary, who says her Russian re-set was a success? Who was running the government in 2016? Where are the servers? Let’s see what’s there!

Cuomo then accused Lord or perpetuating “BS!”
Stop lying! No servers are missing. You know this but you perpetuate BS! and Trump is potus now – the only one to ever play to russia the way we all saw in #Helsinki – own that. https://t.co/bGLPB4iywZ

Lord was fired from CNN after tweeting, “Sieg Heil!” in a satirical attempt to make fun of someone acting like a “fascist.”
Despite it being satirical, he was canned from the network after a long run of being one of their most well known Trump defenders.
