Sean Hannity Slams John Boehner in the Wake of Scalise Scandal, Calls for Him to Step Down

Posted by: Josh Kilburn

Sometimes, it seems that even cool mercenaries like Sean Hannity have a limit to how much right-wing BS they can take before they step up and say something. Today, after Speaker John Boehner tossed his hat in with House Majority Whip Rep. Steve Scalise after it was found that Scalise gave a speech at a white supremacist conference in 2002, Sean Hannity called for Boehner to resign immediately.

Speaking to Breibart, Hannity called for Boehner to resign immediately, and to be replaced with Rep Trey Gowdy. Hannity spent a good part of his emailed statement shilling for Gowdy, noting that it was time for “dynamic leadership in the House of Representatives” and that “Boehner has snubbed and ignored conservatives.”

“John Boehner has snubbed and ignored conservatives for too long as evidenced by the recent cromnibus budget deal he made with Obama, Reid and Hoyer,” Hannity said. “It’s time he step aside for the good of country and the conservative movement.”


I’m still amused they call Breibart a “news” source. It’s arguably worse than Fox.

Hannity is an errand boy relaying orders.

"For the good of the movement" indicates that Ailes is aware of heightened racial tensions, and doesn't want his Congressional flunkies so closely associated with provocateurs.

The subber for Mark Levin fielded a bunch of callers demanding it and she read Levin's Facebook rant saying the same.

Ain't happening though.

in one part it says Hannity is fed up with right-wing BS, and then later it says he's mad because Boehner doesn't cave enough to the right wing. In other words a total contradiction in the same article.

Surprised it has taken this long for the likes of Roger Ailes and his Ilk to make their purge move. Rethugs are taking a page out of Stalin's 1950's play book,first have a party member denounce the person and then send them to a Goulage in Siberia. Johnny Boy better hope they have Merlot on the menu. And,they say compromise,ouch.
