Fox News Pundit Thankful For Lack Of Black Panthers In NH Town [Video]

Fox News radio host Todd Starnes took a moment on Tuesday morning to explain how Dixville Notch’s early voting represents what’s great about America: civic participation, patriotism, and a lack of “black panthers with baseball bats.”

Video of Starnes’ bizarre comments is below, courtesy of Talking Points Memo:

I love this, this is what America is all about. Like you said, no hanging chads, we didn’t see any black panthers with baseball bats. These were good, American folks going to do their patriotic duty and I think it’s fantastic, Dixville Notch is just a great little place.

Starnes’ fears of a race war breaking out in rural New Hampshire are probably unfounded; according to Talking Points Memo, none of Dixville Notch’s 12 citizens are black (although there’s no data on their baseball bat ownership.)

Mike Johnson (R-LA), using the Motion to Vacate she filed last month. She told Fox viewers she wanted to return to her House district to “listen to voters” before acting, however.

Trump's Hour On CNN Was A Profile In Cowardice

Vanity Fair recently reported that several journalists from mainstream publications, including The Washington Post, NBC News, Axios, and Vanity Fair, were denied press access to Trump’s campaign events, seemingly in retaliation for their previous critical coverage. Meanwhile, Media Matters found that the campaign has granted press credentials to the QAnon-promoting MG Show and Brenden Dilley, a podcaster who has promoted the QAnon conspiracy theory and leads a “meme team” that creates pro-Trump content.
