Hannity, Tucker Carlson Falsely Accuse Cory Booker of Keeping Silent on Fairfax Sex Assault Allegation (UPDATE)

On Wednesday, Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson both accused 2020 Democratic hopeful Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) of staying silent on the sex scandal involving Virginia’s Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax (D).

Yet Booker, has, in fact, spoken out, saying it took “tremendous courage” for the accuser to come forward.

During Wednesday’s show, though, Carlson accused Booker of dismissing Tyson “completely today as unimportant.”

After playing a clip of Booker saying the focus in on calling for the governor to step down, Carlson then said this: “Booker’s got better things to focus on than some girl in California who’s alleging sexual assault against one of his partymates. The Cory Booker of just a few months ago would be disgusted by the Cory Booker you just saw. Back then sexual politics seemed more important than race politics. And now, it’s the other way around. It’s the never-ending car crash of intersectionality.”

Then, on his show an hour later, Hannity also pointed fingers at Booker and accused him of not speaking out when the one accused was a Democrat.

“Let’s not ever forget what they did to Justice [Brett] Kavanaugh,” Hannity opined during a segment aimed at showing the Democrats’ double standard.

“Where’s Kamala Harris tonight? Where is ‘Spartacus’ Cory Booker? Where is Elizabeth Warren?” Hannity later asked. “Do they believe this accuser? Do they stand with all survivors of sexual abuse or only when it’s made against a Republican or a conservative? Is it just about politics, not about the cause?”

UPDATE: At the conclusion of his show on Wednesday, Hannity acknowledged and corrected his error.

1. Tucker Carlson is an incorrigible liar.

2. God, Hannity is such a piece of shit.

I hope he goes down in the Mueller probe. His head is so far up Trump's ass that he can feel the next Big Mac being digested.

3. Curious how many times those two

mentioned the 19 accusers of trump.

4. They're gonna try to tag everyone in on the situation in Virginia.

Seriously, this is the strategy? They are going to try to dirty every Democrat over this.

Time for some resistance. I think may be ready for Northam to stand firm to his elected position. Let the voters decide. Somebody is running a game on the Commonwealth of Virginia. A dangerous game.

Damn Republicans suck. Two bigger sellout hacks than Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity will never be found.
