While discussing the horrific attack against Paul Pelosi, California Governor Gavin Newsom specifically called out Fox News' Jesse Watters.
Watters has been front and center in exposing the privilege given to Pelosi in his DUI case.
He has also been very hard on Pelosi, which Newsom characterized as "dehumanizing" Pelosi.
Newsom had the gall to say that Watters had "aided and abetted" the attacker.
Well, Watters just responded.
Set the Record Straight
Watters, in defending himself, stated, "Let's set the record straight: Paul Pelosi got drunk and nearly killed someone with his car, and then the Napa County DA made it go away.
"We reported that Paul Pelosi got special treatment and mocked him for trying to bribe officers.
"We had to wait forever to get to the bottom of what happened that night, and there [are] still questions we have.
"But Gavin Newsom thinks if you mock a Democrat, it puts them on a target list.
"If anything, Gavin Newsom has done more to aid and abet this attack on Pelosi than anybody.
"David DePape is a homeless criminal and an illegal alien. DePape overstayed his visa for years — committed crimes. California is a sanctuary state, so he was never deported.
"So let me ask you a question: Who is more at fault here? The governor who didn't deport the deranged drug-addict felon who thinks is he Jesus or the news guy who fairly covered Paul's DUI case?
"I think we both know the answer."
I would make one additional point here.
Democrats always talk about the words the conservatives and Republicans use to incite violence.
Those words by Newsom were pretty strong, but did he worry about encouraging an attack against Watters by the liberal horde?
Absolutely not. What he did do, however, was hang a big target right around his neck.
