Birds of a feather do indeed flock together.

Hillary Clinton has been playing the role of China apologist for a long time, as have many Democrats. But it’s a little startling to see her being quoted directly by the Chinese Communist Party. That’s exactly what happened early today, when “China News,” a stated own outlet, shared this.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday critiqued President Donald Trump's recent usage of "Chinese Virus" to refer to the #COVID19 as "racist rhetoric," which is an attempt to eclipse his poor response in curbing the virus outbreak. https://t.co/Yu07UjCzbi pic.twitter.com/V4ZV9zb2ho — China News 中国新闻网 (@Echinanews) March 20, 2020

Worse, then the same guy who spread those false rumors about the U.S. Army giving China the virus also shared Clinton’s statement.

If you are being quoted by the country that lied about and helped spread the Wuhan virus, perhaps you are doing something wrong? Crazy though, I know.

I could riff on this for another few paragraphs, but I think this speaks for itself. The Democrats and the mainstream media have turned themselves into literal propagandists on behalf of the CPP. Why? Simply to try to own the orange man. It’s disgraceful and the receipts will eventually come due.
