Washington journo wants to get something off his chest

Another reporter snaps at CNN’s Jim Acosta 

“Not to be a b*tch, but literally who cares? Have you heard the things nixon said in there????” — Vice NewsEve Peyser to CNN Chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta, who tweeted that Kanye said “motherf***ker” in the Oval.

Griffin is a liberal and a comedian; Loesch is a conservative radio host and spokeswoman for the NRA. 

DANA: “I’m a doctor of psychiatry on Twitter, let me diagnose Kanye” is my new favorite Twitter.

KATHY: “So I’m assuming when the First Lady of the United States put out a statement (which was unprecedented) questioning my mental health because of a photo involving a mask and ketchup you said something about it? Did you slam her for invoking mental health without a degree?”

DANA: “You held a mock severed head of the president. Pretty ludicrous to compare that to two people simply talking and finding common ground.”

KATHY: Do you think it’s appropriate for the First Lady of the United States to judge/comment on someone’s mental health in general @DLoesch?
