and MSNBC is next level gaslighting. I was driving home and zapping through channels. I came across her "take" on the shooter being captured. Now if I understand the story correctly, at this point and from the mouths of MSNBC talking heads, the shooter confessed to his father and the father grabbed the kid and drove to the cops and turned him in.
But Chris Jansing and her "guests" immediately praised Hack Patel and the FBI for doing such marvelous work so fast to "get the shooter". It would seem to me that Hack and the FBI had little to do with capturing the shooter. But in the minds of Jansing et al it was like the greatest example of FBI prowess.
Like a scientist sitting in his house and a neighbor brings him a strange heavy rock which turns out to be a chunk of a meteorite and then the scientist starts talking in the media about how he has discovered the piece. He didn't discover anything. It fell into his lap because of somebody else. Seems to be the same case with the one in custody if Jansing and others were telling the truth instead of bootlicking.
