      Brian Beutler Retweeted Donald Trump Jr.

      It’s always a huge tell when conservatives beatify Andrew Breitbart, as if he weren't a racist lowlife cut from the exact same cloth as Steve Bannon.https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/948638652850061312 …

      Andrew Breitbart would be ashamed of the division and lies Steve Bannon is spreading!

      ???? Breitbart was as fully racist as Bannon. Look at Shirley Sherrod case

          They had the "black crime" section pre-Bannon, right?

          People who lionize Andrew Breitbart need a good long shower. And then, to go without their supper.

          Falling for the right-wing hit job on Shirley Sherrod was one of the worst mistakes in Tom Vilsack's political career.http://www.bleedingheartland.com/2010/07/21/vilsack-caught-up-in-beltway-scandal-du-jour-updated/ …

          Replying to @LauraRBelin @HeerJeet and

          You mean that “hit job” where they played a fucking video of her speaking? (Yes I know the video was an excerpt. She could’ve told Vilsack that, and he could’ve listened. That’s on him, not Breitbart, who never called for her to be fired)

          The "Shirley Sherrod case" was a smear against Breitbart that you are perpetuating. Breitbart did not mislead about Sherrod at all. https://legalinsurrection.com/2014/02/ny-times-perpetuates-myth-of-andrew-breitbarts-misleading-shirley-sherrod-video/ …

          Thanks for seeking out a good rebuttal and posting it. Of course, your tweet was hidden in the "more replies" section. Right below the @HeerJeet lie is an echo chamber.

          yes, they are the racists. Now, I will let Jeet and his contemporaries talk endlessly about race, while demonizing/generalizing an entire race. It's fine though, cause they generalize the correct race.

          Wasn't about race - that was her claim, not his.
