Woke journalist makes sick remark about JD Vance's young CHILDREN after previously scolding flight attendant
The editor of a famously liberal news outlet has backed the booing of Vice President JD Vance 's young children during a family trip to Disneyland. Mother Jones editor-in-chief Clara Jeffrey made the declaration on woke X alternative BlueSky after the second family were heckled during a weekend trip. 'People who feel bad for JD Vance's kids as family gets booed at Disneyland. I get it, but better those kids know now what their father is about,' Jeffrey wrote. 'Other kids are watching their parents get shipped off to gulags,' she added. She went on to claim Vance wanted his children to be heckled for political optics. 'Also, JD Vance knows he's going to be booed at Disneyland or the Kennedy Center or wherever. 'He doesn't have to go with his kids, but…he probably wants the optics of his family being booed. So…yeah.' Jeffrey, who previously hit the headlines after scolding a flight attendant who used the word 'blessed' during an announcement, was quickly condemned. 'WTF is wrong with these people!???' Donald Trump Jr. wrote on X. Critics called her a 'soulless ghoul' for seemingly encouraging the harassment toward children aged 3, 5, and 8. 'Imagine the type of soulless ghoul you have to be to say this… Imagine being the Editor in Chief of Mother Jones Magazine,' Republican strategist Andrew Surabian chimed in. Previously, the progressive journalist has been mocked online after making a public post criticizing a flight attendant who wished her and other passengers a 'blessed night'. Last year, Jeffery posted to X that she found the Alaska Air flight attendant's language akin to 'creeping Christian nationalism' after landing in San Francisco. Jeffrey wrote that replacement words such as 'great' or 'fantastic' would have worked just as well, adding that someone sat in her row said:' This ain't Montgomery, sweetie.' That was an apparent reference to the Alabama city frequently associated with anti-black racism. But her post triggered many to hit back and stand up for what they described as 'kindness'. The post drew attention from all users, liberal or Republican, who called her complaint 'petty' and 'miserable', while some took the opportunity dig up old posts where she herself had used the word 'blessed.' Washington Post columnist Marc Thiessen wrote: 'How sad and impoverished is your life that you're offended by someone blessing you? Get a grip.' One user, J Valentine, responded saying: 'Editor of Mother Jones providing another great example of why normies hate progressives. 'Being 'progressive' is often just an excuse for being an insufferable jerk.' 'Respectfully, I'm a pretty left leaning guy and I wish folks a blessed day fairly often. It's just a nice thing to say,' wrote Armand Domalewski.

'Think we were right to boo' - fans on Alexander-Arnold
We asked you for your opinion on why Trent Alexander-Arnold received such a reaction and if you participated in the are some of your comments:Ben: Leaving on a free, to a team that have beaten us in two Champions League finals. Had refused to do media for the last two years and signing Real Madrid shirts last year, plus saying he wants to captain the club then saying he'd prefer to win the Ballon d'Or. Think we were quite right to boo Fans are right to boo him. Ninety nine per cent of Scouse Liverpool fans "get it", that it means something different being part of the city and the club. All these fans saying it's wrong are generally out of towners who simply can never understand. We are Liverpool - we are different, emotional and passionate. If you don't understand the boos, then it's clear this is not your club - follow your local club not ours. Also fed up of the BBC filtering responses to paint the narrative that we are embarrassed by the boos. We are not. Speak to Scousers whose club this is and you will see that he has burned his bridges for life. Richard: Why are you only publishing comments condemning the booing of TAA? He's been disloyal to the club. The club made him what he is, and as a local lad, running your contract down so the club gets nothing and TAA gets everything will never go down well within the fan family. Particularly if he is moving to Real of all clubs, and with our history. Local lads who live the dream, need to treat the club with more respect. This means What twaddle. This has happened every time a player runs down his contract since Bosman. Most of the fans commenting are post-millennial who do not remember Steve McManaman doing exactly the same as Alexander-Arnold and getting booed off for the last game of the season. It didn't affect him being welcomed back later after his career finished. Fans of other teams who are taking the mickey will be best to remember if one of their best players leaves on a free, the whole fanbase are not going to wish him I can understand the booing and cat-calling by some of the fans. I think it is due to what he said. Went from: "I am a local lad, living my dream" to then turning his back. McManaman and Michael Owen did the same and were treated the same. Leaving on a free to your European rivals is not a good thing. Why leave it to the last minute to tell what everyone knew? Should have cashed in big and bedded a replacement than gone through this debacle. One thing is certain and you can ask Owen - when you turn your back on Liverpool, you never how you felt about the boos

Trent Alexander-Arnold boos ‘understandable' but ‘not for me', says Jamie Carragher
Jamie Carragher said he understood why sections of Liverpool supporters wanted to express their anger towards Trent Alexander-Arnold but added that booing players while they are on the pitch is 'not for me'. Alexander-Arnold made his first appearance since announcing that he would be leaving his hometown club at end the of the season as a second-half substitute, replacing right back Conor Bradley. There was a mixed reaction for the vice-captain, with some Liverpool supporters booing the 26-year-old's every touch and others cheering as they played out a 2-2 draw with Arsenal at Anfield. Former defender Carragher, who was at Liverpool for his entire career, explained on Sky Sports that fans were hurt by Alexander-Arnold's decision to leave but was disappointed to see him booed during the game. "That's the story of the game,' Carragher said when asked about the boos afterwards. 'That's what we will be talking about after the game and what will be on the the back pages of every newspaper. "I'm surprised with how many [booed]. When you're in a crowd of 60,000, there's no doubt there are a lot of unhappy people in Liverpool with the situation. I've said that's understandable. 'For me, I don't believe any player putting on that red shirt who goes out to play for the club and win three points and to win trophies should be booed. 'I understand there's a lot of ill-feeling. Some people outside of Liverpool don't get that - I do. But booing one of your own players while they're playing is not for me.' Liverpool head coach Arne Slot said on Friday that he would not tell supporters how to feel, while his team-mate and close friend Andy Robertson said it was 'not nice' to see Alexander-Arnold booed. "In general and life, the good thing about living in Europe, everyone can have their opinion. That's the same here in Liverpool,' Slot said afterwards. There was more applause for Alexander-Arnold at full time when he went to the Kop. "There were people who were not so happy, there were people who were happy for him. They clapped for him. A few of them booed. "Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Towards the end, a few of them got more and more positive. But for me, it's simple. I owe it to the team, to the fans, to play a team that can win a game of football. "Trent showed it because he had two or three incredible balls. We were so close to winning it, partly because of him. "For me, it's not that difficult. And for the fans, they can have the reaction they want. I will always back my players, the ones I lead and wear the red shirt."
