Milo Yiannopoulos resigns from Breitbart News

Mithros said:
Pence was almost certainly responsible for the leaks... duh. Leaks that just so happen to include exculpatory details on you but harm your adversaries are seldom accidental.

Also, what does it say when your gut reaction is to defend someone who jokes about child molestation because they happen to be on your "team"?

That's a lie - Pence himself didn't even know about Flynn's meeting with the ambassador until the leak into the public arena made him aware of it. The purpose of the leak was obviously to create discord between Trump's people and disrupt the administration.

Give me a break. No charges have been brought against Milo for his speech. Publishers have a right to cancel contracts, universities have a right to cancel speaking events, people have a right to protest, and Milo still gets to speak.

The video in quesiton is a episode from the Drunken Peasants that aired nearly a year ago.



The 54:00 mark is where Milo said what he did to pretty much ruin him.

Milo is being very much tongue in cheek but he's justifying adult/child relationships too much here. And the hosts are right...he's walking a line that he may not have thought he crossed, but I think he did. I'm sure that a lot of people would agree that he crossed a line.
 
Milo said something really stupid and now he's paying for it. That's life.
 
So much hypocrisy.

How do you figure? Has he been convicted of some sort of crime? Is their a visa or passport he's violated?

He is here on a work visa... He needs have a job to stay here.

To add: One of the requirements of a work visa is GMC (Good Moral Character) . He seems to have failed that.

Sounds like Milo is being pretty stand up about it, taking the blame and resigning.

He "takes responsibility" and then he goes about boo-hooing about everyone treating him unfairly. Milo a stand up guy? Lol.

You obviously don't know Pence's history in Indiana.

Looks more and more like Pence might be running a stealth invoke the 25th campaign .
 
Another scumbag lowlife bites the dust and crashed and burns when his own engine explodes. Good .

Is there a better option? It does not take a brain surgeon to figure out the best move here.

He didn't get his right to speak - his Berkeley university event was canceled by rioting from Alt-Left militant radicals - which you refer to as "protest".
 
Being an racist and an anti-Semitic is apparently OK with Breitbart, but they draw the line at diddling little boys. Good to know they have some standards.

To top it off, he said this about his firing...er resignation:

He called the furor over his comments "a cynical media witch hunt from people who don't care about children."

******* ****** **** ***** !

I think that there is change Pence might be doing just that. The GOP Congress would be more than happy with a President Pence. Lawrence O'Donnell last night has a great 11 minute segment on it. Go to his site on MSNBC for it.

There is one big question here though: would there be hell to pay from the trump voters if they got rid of him in this way or through impeachment? Would the hardcore Trump folks be so angry that their leader of their counter revolution was run out of town that they would try to punish the GOP for the offense?

I think that needs to be explored.

Milo also represents the Steve Bannon alt-right wing of the GOP that is trump's number one influence .

I thought Milo was a troll in your books, that is poking looking for a reaction to play with.....which does not require him believing any of it.

Seems you cant make up your mind.

Alt-left is a term made up by Milo's old boss, alt-right Breitbart and Bannon .

Why should he resign though? I thought the alt right was all about free speech and not apologizing for the truth or what a person believes?

I haven't been invited to speak at a forum at Berkeley or any other university for that matter. I guess my freedom of speech is being violated...

Vast majority were peaceful protestors. There is often a small group of "anarchists" who revel in vandalizing or committing violent acts. They should be prosecuted.

President Trump threatened to take away funding from UC Berkley because some students there didn't want Milo talking about how super awesome it is to **** kids...

Is Trump now going to threaten to punish CPAC and Breitbart?

Look at your Freudian slip.
See, that's the difference between you Lefties and decent people -- you believe that someone has to prove their right to speak -- while normal decent people believe that right is innate, and does not have to be pleaded for by convincing some self-appointed Thought Police on the Left.

Who is persecuting him?

ModerateGOP isn't a "leftie", as anyone who has read his posts through the years knows.
