SF Chronicle Columnist @markmorford Says DEATH THREATS to Trump EPA Chief “Make Sense”

12

The age of the savage. The left and the enemedia are increasingly unhinged. And still they pose as having the moral high ground, when their corruption and evil are obvious to everyone who isn’t self-deluded.

“San Francisco Columnist Writes Justification for Death Threats to Trump Cabinet Official,” by Brent Scher, Washington Free Beacon, October 26, 2017:

An article published on the San Francisco Chronicle’s sister-site on Wednesday offers justification for the increased number of death threats to Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt, saying the threats “make a warped sort of sense.”

The article by Mark Morford, whose biography says he has been writing for the Chronicle and sister-site SF Gate since 1998 and is described on the site as “one of the Bay Area’s premier yoga instructors,” describes Pruitt as a “banally evil, milquetoast, science-denying government administrator” who has been receiving a “surprising-but-then-again-not-really number of death threats.”

“Scott Pruitt, the pallid, oily anti-environment corporate shill beloved by the least palatable humans in the corporate world, is getting a lot of death threats, up to five times more than any EPA head in history,” writes Morford, who goes on to suggest that the death threats may be coming from “God herself.”

“They are, perhaps, coming from environmental advocates, or teachers, or lovers of life and humanity and nature, or distraught mothers, worried that Pruitt’s actions will, quite correctly, endanger the lives of their children,” Morford writes. “They are, most likely, coming from God herself.”

Morford in the piece accuses Pruitt of creating a sound proof office space so he could “block out the screams of all the children, poor, and elderly he is harming and even (eventually) killing, more or less directly, as he whispers dreamy deregulation porn into the withered, cauliflower ears of coal barons, oil magnates and leathery brothers Koch.”

Morford concludes the article by comparing Pruitt to the devil and saying the threats on his life make sense.

“Wherever [the death threats] are coming from, it does make a warped sort of sense,” he writes. “What’s true for Pruitt and Trump is true for the devil himself. When you mean the world ill, the world will mean it right back at you.”

Audrey Cooper, the Chronicle’s editor in chief, would not comment on the contents of Morford’s column, explaining that SF Gate “currently operates independently from the Chronicle newsroom and occasionally contracts with outside columnists, such as Mark Morford.”

“I’m not going to comment on something I had no role in publishing,” said Cooper. Cooper said Morford does not write for the Chronicle‘s newspaper or website.

The headline of Morford’s piece changed from “Why do so many people want the E.P.A.’s Scott Pruitt Dead?” to “Why the EPA director’s security now costs $2 million” after the Washington Free Beacon’s report.

By Friday, the article had been further edited to morph Morford’s claim the death threats came from “God herself” to a claim that they came from “Mother Nature.”

Morford also added an attack on the Washington Free Beacon as a “literalist, desperately unloved sect of right-wing sycophants” that “mis-read” his words.

“Wherever [the death threats] are coming from, it does make a warped, dangerous sort of sense,” Morford’s article now reads. “Unless you belong to that literalist, desperately unloved sect of right-wing sycophants who sacrificed all your critical thinking skills at the altar of neo-Nazi, pro-Trump Breitbartism, you surely understand: this is no advocacy for violence. Only the smallest of minds and most unstable of souls would mis-read my words in such a way.”

Morford’s final sentence, previously a reference to Pruitt being the devil, has also been changed to a claim that Pruitt is sending “death threats to the world and all who live on her.”

“This is but a simple acknowledgement: when you send death threats to the world and all who live on her, the world will, quite naturally, send them right back,” is how the article now ends….

“Only the smallest of minds and most unstable of souls would mis-read my words in such a way”. This is the statement of a particularly stupid person who knows they don’t have a legitimate argument, so, he tries to make a straw man to belittle, which will give the weak minded who believe him a melting ice floe to stand on. There is one born every minute, they congregate around the charismatically stupid like flies recycling organic cow fuel.

How would this FATHERLESS MORON like it if death threats were made to him?? It would make more than warp sense. It would be logical.

The EPA has greatly increased the cost of doing business and is used by the Left and Communist to bring hardship to capitalism and make it harder to compete in the world market resulting in thousands of jobs lost to communist China and bring homelessness to America that is, ironically, creating a terrible pollution problem, economic problem and unsightliness to many communities.

Confirms my belief that Scott Pruitt is doing a really good job for Americans. Unfortunately, only so much progress toward good policy can be made when you have a quality person in charge of a horde of America hating leftist lackeys pretending to be scientists.

And then there’s this NatGeoC filth star pinned-up as an “astrophysicist”
who boasted Carl Sagan as his ment0r.
(I don’t even want to spell his name which along with his hypocrisy-oozing
face would gag a maggot)
much famous for his blasphemies against GOD AND JESUS.
(See his address on December 25th of 2014 or 2015 about whose birthday).

When the politickally-korrect deciZion(*) to topple Pluto from its planet status
& downgrade it to asteroid.( Strong suspicion that it’s taken out of American-bashing because Pluto was American-discovered ), the NGC filth star howled in joy, and avidly gushed his praises.

When the New Horizon probe sent back pictures that show Pluto much
geologically active, he still tweeted
“Sorry Pluto, but you are still not a planet !”
Exactly the language of a pseudo-scientist and true stage filth star.

However, the same NGC in its “pogram” on Pluto after the probe’s pictures,
aired a most extraordinary real footage of the NGC darling pet confronted by his
students (he delivered his courses probably by liip-synchroniZing(*) telepromter)
about his pontificating on Pluto.
What I remember best is the completely hapless expression on his face ( similar
to Al Capone’s after his arrest ) when the student admonested him with :
” You must be more careful in your declarations, Pr._ _ _ _ ! ”
But the top nadir of his scientific language is this
” I am being accused of murdering Pluto, but it wasn’t me ! It was Pr. (…) !
” I was only the one driving the getaway car ! ”
( And this is inspired by your “CHEERLEADER” reference, thanks ! )

(*) All the ”Z”s stand for ”zombies” since they have replaced the
”Animal Farm” sheep.
Were ”Animal Farm” to be written today, the pigs would be vampires,
the dogs werewolves, and the sheep zombies.
The list is in no way closing.
