zzshart ~ "Virginians are bring sold fascism now ..."
CNN’s Jim Acosta declares that Virginia under Glenn Youngkin is ‘a Soviet-style police state’ [video]
If you’re one of the people who didn’t tune into Jim Acosta’s “Democracy in Peril” special series this week — and chances are that you’re one of those people, because next to nobody is actually watching this thing — you missed a hell of a scorching-hot take from our pal Jimothy during a convo with the illustrious writer Molly Jong-Fast:
Mediaite ~ CNN's @Acosta characterized Virginia as "a Soviet-style police state across the Potomac from Washington."

He didn’t really say that ... did he?
Of course he did:
Townhall.com ~ Jim Acosta thinks that Virginia has become "a Soviet-style police state."

Sounds just as stupid the second time you hear it.
Yep, because a two-year-old in the middle of a temper tantrum is far more rational than Jim Acosta at any time of the day.
jeremysenderowicz ~ Whenever Jim Acosta is the second-nuttiest person in a two-person conversation ...
We don’t even want to know what Molly Jong-Fast had to say, honestly. Jim’s crazy enough on his own. So we’ll just focus on him.
Next time Acosta has Molly Jong-Fast on his show, he should also invite zzshart to join them ... that way he stands a good chance at being the third-nuttiest person.
Greg Pollowitz ~ Parents should decide if kids wear masks all day ... just like Stalin.
Upstate Federalist ~ Periodic reminder that @Acosta believes the "soviet style police state" is the one where parents may choose whether or not to muzzle their children vs. having the state force them to at gunpoint.
Dan Isett ~ In Acosta's galaxy brain, how does he get from "parents should be empowered to make decisions about their own kids" to "Virginia is a Soviet-style police state?"
Logan Dobson ~ Yes, the state where the government DOESN'T force you to cover your face and show your papers when you go indoors is the Soviet-Style Police State.
Logan Dobson ~
Doug Powers ~ "War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength" - George Orwell
This guy's just running with it.
It’s a dangerous time to tell the truth in America … so Jim Acosta’s just going to lie instead.
BiasedGirl ~ Meanwhile ... it’s starting to actually be a Free State now.
Katie Pavlich ~ Fact check: The Soviet-style police state is in "show your papers DC."
Virginia is the freedom side of the river.
Abigail Marone ~ LOL - the irony of DC demanding people show medical papers & photo ID to enter a restaurant, but Jim Acosta describing free Virginia as a "soviet style police state."
We’re honestly not sure what Acosta’s so bent out of shape about. If anything, given the amount of propaganda he regularly spews, he should feel right at home in a Soviet-style police state. Propaganda was super-popular there!
RBe ~ This is actually disgusting.
CNN is not a real news organization.
Eliminating government mandates and giving people MORE freedom is described as a Soviet-style police state.
This is insanity. @Acosta is garbage.
