Let’s rewind to last August. Late-term abortion debate came up when NBC News’ Dasha Burns decided to turn the interview into a debate, correcting Florida Gov. DeSantis and his claim that Democrats are pushing for abortion on demand right up until delivery. President Biden just today denied he’s for abortion on demand, only for the “three trimesters” specified in Roe v. Wade.
DeSantis caused quite a stir in the media. CNN’s Dana Bash claimed on air, “I have not talked to a Democrat who wants abortion-on-demand til time of birth.” If she’s talked to any Democrat, she’s talked to a Democrat who supports abortion-on-demand until delivery. Was she trying to protect the Democrats or was she just that ignorant?
Flash-forward to February and Bash is telling Sen. James Lankford, co-sponsor of the horrible Senate Ukraine funding bill that also “closes the border,” that he’s the most conservative member of Congress she knows. It’s legislation so bad that President Joe Biden said he’d sign it.
.@DanaBashCNN: “I don’t know of a more conservative member of Congress than you. So just to sort of lay out the facts where we see them. Thank you so much. Appreciate it.”

To be fair, Dana doesn’t really know something if it’s not in her script.

Dana Bash doesn’t know conservatives.

The only time CNN has ever praised someone for being super conservative.

He’s probably the only conservative she’s had on as a guest.
Chip Roy, Thomas Massie, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Marsha Blackburn to name a few more conservative, Dana.

This should make @SenTedCruz laugh all the way out loud.

It’s all so fake…nobody thinks Lankford is a hardcore immigration hawk

If @cnn is kissing his ass you can bet he is a piece of globalist uniparty trash.

It used to be that CNN’s male hosts were the dumbest on that network. These past couple of years Dana Bash has been working like a demon to gain the top spot.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. Idiot child Lankford isn’t conservative at all. 🤡

If Lankford is the most conservative member of Congress, why is his bipartisan bill getting dragged both by the public and real conservatives like Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Mike Lee? Lankford will probably lose his seat for this.
