CNN is fond of accusing people of being white supremacists but it turns out they had a fan of Hitler among their ranks.
The network has just fired a longtime contributor when it was revealed that he had voiced support for Hitler on social media.
What kind of person likes Hitler?
Townhall reports:
Hey, CNN, I Can’t Believe You Didn’t Know This But You Should Avoid Contributors Who Are Pro-Hitler
What is going on at CNN? We know they’re biased. We know they hate Trump. We know that apparently defeating Trump was a key goal of the control room, along with helping Black Lives Matter which took a hit since the spate of anti-Asian hate crimes were being committed by mostly black Americans. We knew this from their coverage.
Project Veritas got it on video for us. But we’re not talking about how CNN is a liberal cesspool. No. We’re discussing how they had a pro-Hitler contributor named Adeel Raja. Yeah, apparently this dude based in Pakistan thinks we need Hitler, especially now. He tweeted this over the weekend, but his affinity for the infamous murderer goes back to 2014…

Raja had previously voiced his displeasure with Israel’s actions in the ongoing conflict with Hamas, referring to them as “terrorists” in a May 13 tweet as thousands of rockets were being fired into the Jewish state from Gaza.
Social media users soon after dug up a series of old tweets from Raja praising the Nazi leader.
“The only reason I am supporting Germany in the finals – Hitler was a German and he did good with those Jews!” Raja wrote on the day of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in which Germany defeated Argentina.
“Hail Hitler,” Raja tweeted the next day.
This is just bizarre.
Horrifying tweets by CNN freelancer @adeelraja!

Is there something in the water at CNN that makes people crazy?
