I'd heard they were trying to regain some sanity over at CNN....maybe
NEWSWEEK-CNN anchor Brianna Keilar criticized President Joe Biden after he delivered a speech with Marines positioned behind him Thursday evening. During his speech, the president issued a warning about Make America Great Again (MAGA) Republicans.
"Whatever you think of this speech, the military is supposed to be apolitical. Positioning Marines in uniform behind President Biden for a political speech flies in the face of that. It's wrong when Democrats do it. It's wrong when Republicans do it," Keilar said in a tweet on Thursday evening.
Others called out Biden for using Marines during the primetime address.
"We need to make sure that our military is as removed from politics as possible and it's not right if a Democrat uses the military as a political pawn and it's not right if the Republican Party does it as well. None of our politicians or elected leaders should do that," Allison Jaslow, a former official with the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, told CNN.
