Sooooo, first, I am not a laura Ingraham fan. and I will preface this with I have not watched your video ( I don't click on links or videos unless I am on my personal computer).
I am not defending anything she stated, because well, I don't know what she said. However to fair, here is her statement on the backlash of whatever she said. (If anyone has a transcript of her speech to copy and paste - I will read it now, if not, it will have to wait until probably sunday when I will have access to a personal pc).
Quote:
“A message to those who are distorting my views, including all white nationalists and especially one racist freak whose name I will not even mention. You do not have my support, you don’t represent my views and you are antithetical to the beliefs I hold dear,” she said during last night’s broadcast of “The Ingraham Angle” on Fox News Channel. “And despite what some may be contending – I made explicitly clear that my commentary had nothing to do with race or ethnicity, but rather a shared goal of keeping America safe, and her citizens safe and prosperous. Furthermore, as I have said repeatedly on this show, merit based immigration does wonders for our country’s economy, our way of life and how we define our country – I even said that in my opening thoughts last night. I want to make it really clear that my concern will continue to remain with the families who have suffered the tragic results of illegal immigration, the children put in dangerous and unfair situations at the border, and all those border agents around the country who work to keep our country safe.”
So you’re rolling with her walk back without actually listening to her original statement.
Wow.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

Show me where I am "rolling with what she said". Don't worry, I'll wait. . . . . Its gonna be awhile because tho I can tell you that.
perhaps you should actually listen to her statement and comment instead of playing stupid ass games and posting her walkback.
all this time you could've watched the video already. instead, look at you.
paaaatheic.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
watch, your next post will be yet another trash comeback, instead of watching the video and actually commenting on it.

From her perch on a prime-time national television show, conservative commentator Laura Ingraham went off on a shameless rant Wednesday night about “massive demographic changes” in the United States that “most of us don’t like,” attacking even immigrants who migrate legally.
“In some parts of the country, it does seem like the America that we know and love doesn’t exist anymore,” Ingraham said on her Fox News program, “The Ingraham Angle,” in a not-at-all-veiled dig at people of color later endorsed by ex-KKK leader David Duke. While Ingraham added that “it’s not about race or ethnicity,” the thrust of her comments was unmistakable.
In a word, it was bonkersville. But not surprising. Ingraham has been preaching for years to white Americans who feel anxious about the country’s evolving demographics, demonizing immigrants and championing a nostalgic version of the past that doesn’t live up to its rosy ideal.
Here are some of her more outrageous statements:
When she likened the “alt-right” to “a more traditional perspective.” “This is just their shorthand way of trying to demean anyone who is not part of the press cabal, the press club,” Ingraham said on her radio show of the term “alt-right,” now embraced by some white nationalists and white supremacists, shortly after the 2016 election. “But if you’re not in on their club, and you happen to come at it from a more traditional perspective, then you’re alt-right,” she added.
As defined by the Southern Poverty Law Center, alt-right sympathizers believe white identity is under attack from historically maligned and marginalized groups. The so-called alt-right rejects traditional conservatism, and its members can be violent; some of them staged last summer’s deadly rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
When she said “liberals” are “agents of a historical and cultural purge.” Ingraham spouted more nonsense on her Fox program in June, claiming that “not only do today’s liberals ― many of them ― hate our American traditions and a lot of our heritage, but they are also the agents of a historical and cultural purge the likes of which I don’t think we have ever seen in our nation.” Yikes.
When she shared a message from a British neo-Nazi with her Twitter followers. “This is what third world immigration does to Europe,” read a now-deleted tweet by British National Party figure Mark Collett alongside video of what appears to be an overflowing dumpster. Ingraham shared the post earlier this year with her nearly 2 million followers, asking if anyone could confirm that the video depicts a street in Paris. In doing so, she amplified the voice of a man who says he admires Adolf Hitler and considers AIDS a “friendly” disease because of its prevalence among black people and gay people.
When she said that multiculturalism naturally breeds terrorism. During a discussion last summer over terror attacks in the U.K., Ingraham blamed London Mayor Sadiq Kahn, who cheers his city’s diversity.
“Now the price they have to pay for multiculturalism is the risk that you’re walking on the sidewalk and a man will ― or a woman, will purposefully mow you down. And then while you’re maybe finishing your cappuccino in a cafe, or having a drink, someone will put a knife to your throat and slit it with the attempt, perhaps, to behead you,” she said on Fox News.
“That’s what we all have to live with for the free and open society that Sadiq Khan and all these other multiculturalists want Britain to become.”
When she suggested that brown-skinned immigrants “lower our standard of living here in the United States,” unless they are Christians. In a 2015 rant, Ingraham complained about immigration policy by suggesting that the U.S. allows too many people from “far-flung lands” in the Middle East.
“So we’re supposed to lower our standard of living here in the United States, for what, exactly?” she asked, referencing potential extremist views immigrants may bring and scoffing at the idea of humanitarianism. She continued: “Well, if that’s the case, we should have brought in the Christians before they were being slaughtered in the Middle East.”
“The Christians who we can verifiably say are Christians, who are in the threat of being slaughtered, I’m happy to bring in some of them. I think most people would. But all these other people, they’ve got to stay in the Middle East.”
When she agreed with President Donald Trump’s claim that Mexico “sends” murderers and rapists to the U.S. It’s a false claim Trump has made every so often since 2015. Ingraham addressed it with a caller during a March 2016 episode of her radio show, cutting off the guest who brought up “the thing about the Mexicans and murderers and rapists” to interject, “Well, they have come here.”
“Yeah, they have come here to murder and rape our people. We know that,” she said before adding a caveat. “That doesn’t mean everybody has, doesn’t mean everyone who comes across the border is a nasty, horrible person, but they have violated our laws.”
When she floated the idea that immigrants attempting to re-enter the country illegally should be shot. As she spoke about the proportion of people in federal prisons who are undocumented, a frustrated Ingraham offered her own solution.
“Why don’t we ship them out of this country, why are we paying for these horrific individuals? They do their time, get out of the country, never coming back. Never coming back. You come back, you’ll be shot,” she said in 2015.
When she called the American-born children of undocumented immigrants “anchor fetuses.” Back in 2013, Ingraham boasted of a tweet, no longer visible, in which she asked whether immigration advocates would prefer the term “anchor fetus” to “anchor baby,” used to describe children of undocumented immigrants who are citizens by birth.
When she said the cage-like structures confining migrant children at the southern border were “essentially summer camp.” Discussing Trump’s zero tolerance immigration policy on Fox in June, Ingraham considerably downplayed conditions at detention facilities for children that doctors say could lead to “irreparable harm.”
“More kids are being separated from their parents and temporarily housed in what are essentially summer camps, or as The San Diego Union Tribune described them today, as basically looking like boarding schools,” she said. “The American people are footing a really big bill for what is tantamount to a slow-rolling invasion of the United States.”
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

Well your first problem is that you watching a show that cherry picks and takes things out of context so they can spew their own hate filled show.
Is it wrong to say that since we changed our immigration policy from only allowing 250,000 immigrants per year to over 1 million per year and stopped enforcing our immigration laws that our demographics have radically changed? I mean it's the truth. It's a fact that most did not vote to have that changed and that it was done arbitrarily.
I have no problems with deporting people who are here illegally and enforcing our actual laws. I also have no problems go through the jails and deporting every one of them and then letting them know if they ever come back they will be a viewed as terrorist and shot on site.
In the state of Indiana near Elkhart and Goshen there are so many illegal aliens that over half the city populations could be deported. They are having mandatory spanish taught in the public schools because there are so many illegals who can't and won't learn English. It's creating massive cultural clash and a LOT of hostility. It's also creating a growing racism. Why? because you know that when they don't know English chances are they are here illegally. Why are they here illegally? Because they are used for extremely cheap labor at the local factories. It's cheaper to pay the fines and pay illigals less than minimum wage than it is to hire out of work Americans a fair working wage.
And let me tell you people around here are extremely angry over it because that 10s of thousands of jobs that should be going toward people who deserve to live here to people who are breaking the law to fill the pocket of democratic business leaders. I can say that because this is the only democrat part of the state. Imagine that. Excessive illigals leading to democrat control. That's just a myth right? LOL!
You can't fix stupid but you can destroy ignorance. When you destroy ignorance you remove the justifications for evil. If you want to destroy evil then educate our people. Hate is a tool of the stupid to deal with what they can't understand.
Laura Ingraham does her very best carrying the talking points of her handlers, so lets cut her some slack!
You prove her point perfectly ...

I actually heard her say it live. I was watching Fox News. I been trying to see where y'all are coming from.
And yet you post stuff from MSNBC. I guess you must be their viewer.
I was watchingRachel Madow a couple of nights ago because sometimes I like to throw up. She had a big reveal. Apparently some Republican said sometime Trump tweets to much. Man that is some hard hitting news.
Until the left takes their hate speech off the air like Samantha Bee and Joy Behar I do not want to hear crying because someone does not like immigration.
Disagree with immigration does not make one a white nationalist not even close.

Not only do I not believe you would ever watch Rachel Maddow, what you said she revealed was ridiculous. If you did watch, you probably just didn't understand the words she used...
I was speaking in general terms. I didn't mean to imply you are one who is doing so. My bad.
I'm not sure anyone including OCD is quite resorting to "Trump level". That's a pretty high bar to reach. Or low bar. lol
Maybe one he spreads the lie for years that Trump is a Muslim not born in the U.S. he will qualify as Trump level and qualify to run for president as a Republican.

I think I get mentioned in more posts that I have said nothing about in this forum than anybody else. Odd...
I would say the same thing about people who watch CNN or MSNBC. Love me some Hannity and Tucker Carlson.
