Dana Bash appears to want to crawl out of her own skin when Ramaswamy 'goes there' on J6

Love him or hate him, Vivek Ramswamny is not afraid of tackling taboo narratives and he brought his A-game to CNN after Wednesday’s Republican debate.

After a fiery night full of hot takes and insults — and yes, some very substantive policy talk as well — the young presidential hopeful continued to impress his supporters when he ventured into no-man’s land while discussing the so-called January 6th “insurrection” with veteran journalist Dana Bash.

“There was no evidence that it was an inside job,” Bash began in the clip that Ramaswamy shared on X.

Attempting to drive her point home, Bash emphatically continued, “It was a fringe conspiracy theory that the Trump-appointed FBI director Christopher Wray has said explicitly, over and over, is just not true.”

Despite Bash’s best efforts, Ramaswamy did not appear to be convinced.

If you’d have told me nearly 3 years ago when I was just a CEO that Jan. 6 was an inside job, I would’ve said that’s crazy talk. It’s not. There is now clear evidence that there was at the very least entrapment of peaceful protestors, similar to the fake Gretchen Whitmer… pic.twitter.com/6FgSggMlM1

The presidential hopeful admitted that if he were asked three years ago if he thought January 6^th was an “inside job” he’d have called it “crazy talk.”

Ramaswamy spoke of narrative discrepancies seen in the released Jan 6^th footage and called the lack of transparency over how many federal agents were in the field that day “shocking.”

But it was when the self-proclaimed “anti-woke crusader” brought up alleged “entrapment” that Bash appeared distressed.

“What do you mean by entrapment?” Bash chirped.

“Entrapment means that police goaded people to do something that they otherwise wouldn’t have done,” he explained. “And then they arrest them for actually doing it.”

After Bash called Jan 6^th the most aggressive attack on democracy in “many, many lifetimes” she accused Ramaswamy of having no “evidence” for his entrapment claims.

Ramaswamny challenged the disingenuous journalist to take a look at the footage herself, as she unsuccessfully tried to tie former President Trump to the events of that day.

The fiery clip garnered a lot of attention on X where Bash, in particular, took a beating:

Journalism is dead. Listening to this women talk, she only wants to push a narrative. No curiosity or interest in exploring anything else. Thank you for standing up to this everyday! How tiring…

Its crazy to see the media cling to narratives even after it all falls apart

you can feel the desperation

Imagine journalists not doing investigation any longer & just offering opinion commentary. What a time to be alive.

Dana is no match. And Vivek is correct.

That #CNN reporter has her talking points and she’s sticking to them. There is no journalistic integrity or even curiosity to know the truth.

Vivek accurately states that the government and both political parties (aka the #UniParty) has been lying to us.

If this makes even just 1 of their viewers take pause for a moment, it’s a win. The majority need to be awakened to the atrocities our government has committed against those citizens.

I don’t know what happened, but it’s not the story they crafted. I appreciate you having the courage to acknowledge something is off.
