    People ignore the rantings of a deranged lunatic on the street and aren’t blamed for not responding to those rantings. Fox has screamed lies and propaganda at the top of its lungs and have argued they aren’t a news channel in court. Why should an elected representative respond to the ravings of someone like that?

        Clearly Fox is the deranged lunatic. A random entertainment program yelling questions at you doesn’t deserve a response

          She’s an elected official. She should be willing to talk to the press when she attending an anti-American rally.

            Fox news isn’t impartial press.

            Elected officials should be willing to put out statements and policy plans somewhere but there is no need to require them to trudge through a swamp of racist heathens to do it.

              Can you find where she has condemned those statements in any media? Issued a press release? And fox isn’t racist. That’s such a dog whistle.

                If you were impartial you would understand that the reporter asking this particular question to a congressperson of color could only be the result of systematic racism.

                  No, it has nothing to do with race. She is attending and speaking at a rally about death to America.
