Attorney General Jeff Sessions speaking about the “Anglo-American heritage of law enforcement” recently sent the Left into a tizzy, including Sarah Silverman:

Wow. Jeff put it so simple and concise: "The office of Sheriff is a critical part of the Anglo-American heritage of law enforcement.” pic.twitter.com/JkpTsVnJCD — Jonathan Jayes-Green (@JayesGreenJ) February 12, 2018

He’s a racist cunt (no offense to cunts) https://t.co/nAAOiqwK9L — Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman) February 13, 2018

Yeah, about that. It just got really awkward:

Hey @SarahKSilverman, You called Jeff Sessions a "racist c**t" for saying: "The office of Sheriff is a critical part of the Anglo-American heritage of law enforcement.” Obama said the same thing, so I'm curious, what derogatory name are you going to call him? pic.twitter.com/2r9B4F5J63 — Ryan Saavedra ??

D’oh! Silverman acknowledged that and backpedaled fast after realizing her vulgar insult accidentally got all over Obama (but clung hard to her Sessions insult):

Whoa!! Touché- Ryan! You’re right! Us lefties read into “Anglo” & it must just be like a thing! My bad! THAT SAID – I truly still think Sessions is a racist cunt 4 myriad other reasons (assume u know them) plus his boner 4 weed is ridic. It help sick people in pain + it’s fun — Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman) February 14, 2018

Ps- thank you for this. I care about what is true, not what party that truth supports. So, for reals, thanks. — Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman) February 14, 2018

Hmm, that was a pretty fast backpedal while trying not to abandon the initial insult.

Seems like an odd way to admit you know nothing about history, civics or the law. https://t.co/MGPXBWliJi — Darin Lloyd (@db_lloyd) February 14, 2018

Right!?

AG Sessions is decent man. You obviously disagree with him on just about everything, but does that disagreement rise to the level of such vile, repulsive language? Would you appreciate being called the same? Enough, please. https://t.co/GDDEuWV9ik — Trishcuit (@Trishcuit) February 14, 2018

Remember when Silverman said her new show was intended to “unite a fractured United States”? LOL.
