CNN anchor Jim Acosta stated Saturday on âNewsroomâ that the proper in America has turn out to be âlike the American Taliban,â which he named âMAGAban.â
Acosta stated, âLeading figures on the far right have been sounding the alarm on Afghanistan evacuees all week. The refugees are coming. The refugees are coming.â
He continued, âOver on Fox, human manure spreader Tucker Carlson has floated yet another race-baiting conspiracy theory that tens of thousands of Afghan refugees are being sent over to this country in order to change the outcome of elections.â
Acosta then performed clips of Tucker Carlson, Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) discussing âbloodshedâ and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) urging telecommunication firms to not cooperate with the choose committee investigating January 6.
Acosta continued, âTimes they are also changing down in Texas. Thatâs where a bizarre new law all but prohibits abortion and creates a so-called bounty system that allows ordinary people to sue health care providers and just about anyone who helps a woman get the procedure.â
He added, âIf youâre getting a Handmaidâs Tale vibe from this, youâre not alone.â
Acosta concluded, âSome members of the far-right in this country have apparently decided they will resort to intimidation, and in some cases, even violence to get what they want. They could sweep into power faster than the experts thought possible. Sound familiar? Sort of like an American Taliban. It is starting to look like a combination of theocracy and thugocracy. The leaders of this MAGAban movement, people Marjorie, Madison, and Tucker, theyâre not counting on an intelligence failure or a lack of planning on your part. Theyâre counting on a lack of courage to stand up for your rights in this country. Does that ring a bell? The anti-immigration, anti-democratic, anti-womenâs rights forces have all sought these kinds of changes for years, even decades, in this country. Their operation to change America forever is well underway.â
