Later, Girdusky retaliated in a post on X, saying: “You can stay on CNN if you falsely call every Republican a Nazi and have taken money from Qatar-funded media. Apparently you can’t go on CNN if you make a joke. I’m glad America gets to see what CNN stands for.”
Ah yes, once again, when they get caught out being shitbags, “iT wAs JuSt A jOkE!!!”
Apparently you can’t go on CNN if you make a joke
Then what’s the punchline, asshole? Jokes have punchlines. So what was it?
Harris was right, these are very unserious people. They seem to spend their entire lives making “jokes”.
So was Hillary. These people are deplorable.
They have become so obsessed with triggering people for reactions they eventually forgot what a joke actually is.
“You can stay on CNN if you falsely call every Republican a Nazi”
It’s not false.
Also, who is he referring to?
Nobody. He’s just playing victim.
By ‘conservative commentator’ they mean former writer for Richard Spencer, well known um… yeah, fucking Nazi.
Another thing to note about him: Girdusky is also listed as one of the board of advisors of American Moment which is a group that’s listed by the Heritage Foundation as a Project 2025 partner
Wonderful.
Good for CNN.
It wasn’t just racist, it was a threat.
He said to Hasan that he hoped his pager didn’t go off.
Conservatives are literal monsters
Sounds like NewsMax just got a new talking head.

On Monday’s prime time show, after Muslim journalist Mehdi Hasan stated that he supports Palestinians, conservative commentator Ryan Girdusky responded, “I hope your beeper doesn’t go off.”
The remark is offensive, but how is it racist? The implication was that Hasan’s ideology is similar to that of Hezbollah, which isn’t a race.
the implication is that all arabs are terrorists, which is 100% racist
Worse still, Hasan isn’t Arab at all. He was born in the UK to Indian parents.
Yeah, I was born in the US to Indian parents, and I was still 100% an Arab terrist in the south.
I think that’s quite a stretch. Girdusky’s comment is clearly a response specifically to Hasan’s expression of support for Palestinians. What’s the connection between “all supporters of Palestinians are terrorists” and being an Arab?
And the pagers targeted Hezbollah, not Palestinians. Ergo, racist.
Some people can’t hear the dog whistles until they become bullhorns.
I think that’s quite a stretch.
I assure you, it is not.
LOL ok… i guess congrats for being one of the like 10 people who think that guy’s not actually racist
