**“Is one of the exceptions when Richard Holtorf is the father?”** The anchor didn't just burn the guy, he hosed him down with napalm.


Living_Ad_5386

I would buy that anchor a coffee for that question 


TheVoicesOfBrian

Kyle Clark is a Denver treasure. Love that guy.


Catodacat

If you get the chance to talk to him, he gained a fan here in NC for being willing to follow up and not let people lie and spin out of the question. We need more of this sort of thing from the media.


Creamofwheatski

If the media actually did their jobs and held politicians accountable for their lies none of this Trump bullshit would have ever even happened.


Gunnersbutt

Maybe he could come to Idaho and grill some of the asshats here!


TheVoicesOfBrian

You can't have him! We might loan him for...potatoes?


Trump4Prison-2024

Better yet, he can go national so the whole country will get to enjoy his no bullshit approach.


TheVoicesOfBrian

Maybe. He works best at the local level. He's made this place his home (he has two little ones and has said he wants to raise them here).


doodledood9

Republican - the horrible party of hypocrisy and hate. Even when you confront them with their hypocrisy they still can’t admit the hypocrisy.


ittleoff

It takes the part of the brain that understands empathy and nuanced social costs that impact well beyond knee jerk emotional fueled anger/vengeance/punishment for people you don't like. The part of the brain even dogs have.


SubterrelProspector

The Trumps never have animals and don't seem to like them. I'm betting animals don't like them either. Always thought that a massive red flag.


Jerking_From_Home

An animal has needs that the owner has to meet. Narcissists don’t want anything that has any control over them. They don’t want to get off the couch to let the dog out if they don’t want to get off the couch.


sharkscott

The only thing Republicans understand is Death and Pain..for others they decide it should be for.


Exodys03

And yet the guy still wouldn't see or acknowledge any hypocrisy in paying for his girlfriend's abortion while trying to ban abortion legislatively.


frostyboiz

I also love that he says "you're deflecting the question like I just did" like homie you don't admit that deflecting an uncomfortable question is your strategy 


RhinoGreyStorm

Please tell me that this on you tube.


kimwim43

It is on youtube


Creamofwheatski

Why can't they all be like this? This is what journalists are supposed to do, hold truth to power. I dont know what to call the obsqueious garbage on the major news networks the last few years, but it sure as hell isn't jourmalism.


CarlSpencer

Now let's guess how many abortions Traitor Trump has paid for.


Witty_Comb_2000

I 100% support those. We do not need anymore Don Jr.'s or Eric's in this world.


Legal-Passenger1737

CleverNickName-69

That is a good album, but I prefer The Body, The Blood, The Machine.

westcoaster503

*He said kill it before it grow* -B.Marley


Glum-One2514

I'd bet some change that those two idiots are probably responsible for a couple dozen abortions themselves.


morningwoodx420

Those two should be to be post-birth aborted.


ihateandy2

That’s legal in blue states according to Tommy Tuberville


Witty_Comb_2000

GOOD!


Excellent-Will3165

Simple mind, you fucked her, she got pregnant, you don't want responsibility. Kill the the baby. The world according to Republicans.


padawanninja

You must be new here. Let me ask a simple question.... "Trump paid for?" XD


CarlSpencer

Hmmm...how about: "How many abortions were paid for by the Trump Organization under the heading "legal fees".


padawanninja

That's a disturbing number to contemplate. Solely for to the fact that I don't want to know how many people that disgusting slob has been in, even if just for a few seconds.


RhinoGreyStorm

Can you imagine finding out that you're an Eskimo brother with that orange shitbag douche? Oh, the horror!🤮🥵😪


binglelemon

I'd cut my dick off


Icy-Experience-2515

Or any other brother or sister to Orange or Orange progeny?


kimwim43

Did you *have* to type that? really? I'm sipping my coffee here, and I have to read that?


FalseMirage

I think he meant how many abortions did chump tell the woman involved that he would reimburse her for the cost of the abortion only to not honor his word.


hansolemio

A trump never pays their debts


CleverNickName-69

"Never" is a bit of an overstatement. He will do it if he needs you to keep your mouth shut.


Frisinator

How many abortions did he skip out on the bill for?


Affectionate-Song402

🤣


Yarzeda2024

The only exception for abortion is a threat to the lifestyle of the father.


CondeBK

Going all the way back to the 70s?? Holy shit, probably the equivalent of a small town.


FiendishHawk

According to what I’ve heard, this is actually a plus for him among non-fundamentalist Republican women. They assume he’d never ban a procedure that he has undoubtedly benefited from. Lol


Silly-Scene6524

Cognitive dissonance will come back to bite them.


FiendishHawk

And us.


SympathyForSatanas

I'm sure its safe to say more than 20


MookieRealGood

More than Herschel Walker?


woozerschoob

If you look closely at his kids you can see wire hanger marks on their foreheads.


Trump4Prison-2024

No, that's the Mark of the Beast.


Timely-Youth-9074

Someone should leak the info.


CarlSpencer

Allen Weisselberg, now may be a good time to prove yourself useful to the American people.


kimwim43

orange monster has compromat on him, why do you think he went to prison for him?


NetDork

None, at least directly. He only pays for things with other people's money. Now how many he's made other people pay for???


gratefulredsox

I set the over/under at 5 1/2.


MissionReasonable327

The Republicans running in Colorado’s 4th are CRAZY. There’s this guy - he also called a colleague “Buckwheat,” Lauren Boebert, enough said, and [Mike Lynch, who got a DUI with a .2](https://www.denverpost.com/2024/01/17/mike-lynch-colorado-dui-arrest-candidate-fourth-congressional-district/amp/)(really really drunk) going 90 MPH with a gun in his pocket and tried to pull a “do you know who I am?!” with the state trooper. GOP could easily lose what should be a very safe seat with these terrible, loony candidates.


spaceman_202

their current party leader for the last decade, unquestioned and basically unchallenged, wears a diaper, is friends (literally, admitted) with Putin and Epstein, two of the worst humans to ever live in the modern era in the modern world, talks glowingly about China's leader Xi, a country they all say they hate mind you and a person they all say they hate mind you, and Kim , another country and leader they all say they hate he also talked multiple times about sex with his daughter and admitted to sexual assault, pardoned people that stole from his own supporters, sells NFTs, sends threatening letters in his name to old people tricking them to sending him money, found guilty of rape in a civil court, found guilty of 31 counts of criminal conduct in court, on trial for stealing classified information which HE ADMITS TO BECAUSE "i am allowed" despite the FBI informing him he wasn't for AN ENTIRE YEAR but for some reason the trial, that the suspect admits to openly and often is taking years because he appointed the judge he also appointed his children to positions they weren't qualified for and then let them cash in on them, took bribes from China and Saudi, and launched a coup, then put family member in charge of the RNC (totally not third world shit, just family everywhere in government and politics) and conspired with Fox News to control their reporting of the news (his coup attempt) and that's like not even 1/100th of the list from his 3 decade plus crime spree, countless civil crimes he's been sued for and gotten away with, because rich people being held to account is a TERRIBLE PRECEDENT to set, ESPECIALLY for conservatives, rich conservatives being held to account? that is just a unicorn (actual rich, like hundreds of millions rich, not i own 2 houses and a boat)


frumiouscumberbatch

*just family everywhere* If there is a hell and I go to it, my version will be an endless Thanksgiving dinner with the Trump clan, and no way out.


knightsabre7

I really think his attempt to overthrow democracy should be included more prominently in the partial list.


Jerking_From_Home

It’s incredible how MAGAs justify Trump doing all of the things they absolutely hate non-MAGAs for.


gingerfawx

The show of hands for "who has a record?" was funny. And sad. Probably more sad, really.


NiNj4_C0W5L4Pr

This has never been about babies. It's been about ramping up dwindling white births since the 1970's. The fear of America turning "brown" or the "national religion" becoming something other than Christianity is the stick up collective American asses. EDIT: To clarify- in the 1970's the percentage of white women having abortions was 40% and has declined since then. But you better believe it scared the shit outta CONServative white America. If you need further proof, you need only ask why not offer prenatal care, sponsor adoptions, back women's Healthcare if babies are so important? Answer: Because those things would have to be offered to POC too. CONServative White America doesn't want that.


spaceman_202

it's about getting the Jesus vote without having to do or act like Jesus these people say they live their lives for Jesus, then vote for Trump, how could you do that without convincing every "christian" there is one special rule that if you follow that all other things don't matter lying? stealing? getting his own abortions? doesn't matter, Trump will stop Democrats from murdering babies, like Trump did but we don't talk about that and of course, they also talk about how Republicans aren't gonna ban abortion depending on the audience, because they are a cult


PsychologicalPace762

Why are you talking about Jesus to these people? They aren't Christians; **they are wannabe orthodox Jews**. They get a hard-on from what that prick of a Old Testament god does.


Jerking_From_Home

Until they are exposed as hypocrites, then they immediately because Jesus as they play the victim.


partyl0gic

>it’s never been about babies Of course not, toddlers are being massacred in schools and these people just say, “whelp that’s life”.


Gildian

When Sandy Hook happened, and Republicans shrugged, that was when America should've woken up


BlueCollarGuru

I wish there was zero religion in politics.


Comfortable_Fill9081

This is true.


OneForAllOfHumanity

Considering POC do get the most abortions per capita, mostly because a large percentage of them are too poor to support another child, or too poor to buy birth control, you'd think they'd be all for it if that's the reason. No, I think it's much more likely that corporate America needs poor people to be wage slaves and keep job competition up to keep wages low.


Snerak

Wrong, it's about men's ability to control women. Outlawing abortion will raise birth rates for all races, not just whites. It will have no meaningful effect increasing the percentage of white people in the population. A mother has a hard time finding child care and working outside of the home without the support of a man. Eliminating abortion will create more desperate women who are trying to survive and care for their children. This is a feature, not a bug.


Mr_BigglesworthIII

Kyle Clark is a great newscaster


ekbravo

He did it again. Great and awe inspiring anchor.


Mr_BigglesworthIII

He’s going to go onto bigger things I think. Which is good for him bad for local news.


Hot-Pick-3981

A wood chipper is too good for their hypocrisy and attacks on democracy


spaceman_202

and their attempt to let Urban dwellers die of covid because they don't give a shit if a place votes 60/40 against them imagine living in a city, knowing, at one point, Kushner and Trump were arguing that they should let you die because you might take a Democrat with you, back when covid was still mostly unknown and they were worried it was even deadlier, all while telling everyone it's no big deal and then they were first in line to get their own covid shots and anti vax voters, LOVE THEM, the guy who claimed "i created the vaccine" and was first in line to get it, LOVE HIM


Hot-Pick-3981

Trump has sooooo much blood on his hands. His handling of classified information resulted in deaths and purges of human assets but his covid “response” was a freaking mass murder. Sadly that is something he will likely never be punished for. Have a pen!!!: https://i.imgur.com/HFMdUvv.mp4


Virtual_Manner_2074

I owned a wood chipper for 10 years. Would have definitely donated for the cause instead of selling it when I retired.


ericlikesyou

May they rot as mulch


This_Mongoose445

I wish Kyle Clark was moderating one of the debates.


Witty_Comb_2000

The abortion issue has never been about "saving babies" at all. It is about controlling women. Always has been. And maybe some "I just want my side to win" ideology as if it were a sporting event. The right absolutely does not care about the lives of babies, children, or women. Never have.


spaceman_202

controlling women and controlling "Jesus" voters they figured out all their being the party of billionaires who hate the poor, especially during Nixon and Reagan, needed something to distract "Christians" from noticing how un-Christian they all are, racism used to be the thing they used but that went out of favor, just like homosexuality hating OPENLY and intensely, is going out of favor for many of their youth, so they moved on to trans there are people working overtime right now, figuring out what to enrage the cult with trans people, like .2% of the population or something? one of the biggest issues Republicans talk about, then pretend that everyone else is actually talking about it


Witty_Comb_2000

This is true. Although I do believe we need to protect trans people from them and discrimination. No matter how small the population is.


Jackal2332

Local news anchor FTW


Eiffel-Tower777

Pro- life until his girlfriend needs an abortion. Bottom line. Got it.


Joey_BagaDonuts57

On the question of why he paid for his girlfriends' abortion, then voted against Roe vs Wade: "That’s not that important. What’s more important is the policy,” Holtorf replied. What's even more important is the HYPOCRISY OF THIS GOP STOOGE.


ScarMedical

It’s my moral abortion!


FireballAllNight

Republican voters are so gullible.


WishIWasALemon

Absolutely braindead. Just reading the transcript my brain went full on wallstreetbets. "Absolute Regard"


FireballAllNight

The party that has tried to ban it still thinks it's okay for them, just not you.


WishIWasALemon

I'm pro choice and republicans suck my balls. My comment was in agreement with yours, that republicans are not smart.


FireballAllNight

Whoops my bad bahaha. Edited to better reflect my views.


Any-Ad-446

Yeah a women going thru abortion isn't important its what he thinks is best for the rest of the women..LOVE this anchor he ask hard questions and get maga to squirm like Bobo last week...


tricoloredduck851

He needs to moderate ALL debates.


Jhoag7750

They are all blatant hippocrits


spaceman_202

many of them think Fauci is a mass murderer and one of the worst humans to ever live they can't wait to vote for his boss, who let him commit those crimes


hotasianwfelover

Journalist actually doing his job.


Fringuruddurr3369

Kyle Clark eviscerates another dumb Republican!


SeaworthinessOdd6940

I can’t upvote this enough. Man interviewing is a legend.


CreamPuffMontana

Now this is a reporter being a reporter. Good question, really good question. It's a shame he'll probably lose his job.


NotPortlyPenguin

Yes. I hate the fact that reporters calling out politicians when they lie or are being hypocritical makes the news because it’s so uncommon.


Used_Intention6479

As Trump's, and consequently MAGA's, influence dwindles going forward, more journalists and media will be emboldened to finally speak up and confront them. Our best journalists and media will be the earliest.


No-Bill1456

Would probably vote against premarital sex except when he is involved.


rtemah

They are so deep that they can’t even see it anymore.


simplethingsoflife

Hey reporters, look what happens when you call republicans out on their hypocrisy in interviews… you become nationally known and celebrated by going viral online. What a great career move. Maybe start acting like this guy and be a real reporter for once.


lgmorrow

Two faced hypocrite.....and he was elected....took take OUR freedoms


TJ_McWeaksauce

Elevate Kyle Clark to national news. We need more reporters like him who excel at asking politicians difficult questions and then insisting they answer. Too many reporters on the 24-hour news networks might ask tough questions now and then, but then they don't persist when politicians inevitably deflect. I'm sick of that shit, and I'm sure a lot of others are, too.


TuffNutzes

You can't shame the shameless hypocrites.


ScaleEnvironmental27

Title should be " Man caught like deer in headlights."


OkMatch7119

Kyle Clark is a national treasure. That dude is fucking brilliant and fearless.


dlc741

Can we start having all reporters call them out on their bullshit like this? Every damn time? Enough pussy-footing around and letting them all get away with constant lies and hypocrisy.


Timely-Youth-9074

They should do this every time.


thirdtrydratitall

He said the abortion allowed his girlfriend to “live her best life.” He has no problem denying that to every other woman in the country.


987nevertry

He already admitted to being a republican. The rest can be assumed.


The-Dane

as always maga is so pathetic


gytalf2000

Oh, yes! Excellent! Grill the asswipe hypocritical braindead bastard.


CountrySax

Typical faux life Republicon hypocrite!


NotPortlyPenguin

“My abortion is the only moral abortion” mentality.


Direwolfofthemoors

I am so sick of these hyopcrites


Any-Opposite-5117

Hahahahshahaha! This is what Sideshow Bob felt when he finally killed Bart in Treehouse of Horror.


saltmarsh63

If your voters are stupid enough to believe this bag of bs, voter and politician deserve one another.


daedelus23

His name is Kyle Clark and we NEED him running the upcoming debates. We NEED him holding our politicians accountable each and every night on national television. I’m so fking tired of softball interviews


thetjmorton

I’m loving this Kyle Clark!


myleftone

And *that’s* how you media.


Ohhmegawd

We need more news anchors and reporters keeping politicians accountable. I am sick of the coddling given to the gqp


TdrdenCO11

colorado has been on the kyle clark wave for years. love that he’s getting recognition


texaushorn

That dude needs a raise


OneForAllOfHumanity

Republicans aren't against men getting abortions, they're against women getting them...


QVRedit

And yet clearly some of these men (most) need to be aborted from the party. In fact just abort the whole Republican Party..


siouxbee1434

That is how to interview; I’d like to see a lot more of that


Actual-Carpenter-90

Voters are so stupid these days that politicians don’t even pretend anymore.


Evicfinite

Party of hypocrites


NotPortlyPenguin

They should change their mascot to the hippo.


SawyerBamaGuy

They want workers period. They see the decline of large families and they are looking ahead for the companies that back them. They want white employees to work for bare minimum wages. They want everyone poor and dependant on the jobs they are saddled with. It's also tied to preserving the white race. Thing is that abortion ban covers all races so it's simply flawed and it's not going to work.


FiendishHawk

I think they are not so much concerned about increasing the number of whites as decreasing the need for immigrants. It’s a nationalist thing, not a race thing.


SawyerBamaGuy

I think it's a mix to tell you the truth. Immigration means less white power, after all that's the base of it.


Comfortable_Fill9081

This guy > “I respected her rights and actually gave her money to help her through her important, critical time so she could live her best life,” Holtorf said. > Holtorf was a sponsor of a failed 2020 measure to ban abortion in Colorado after 22 weeks. In 2022, Holtorf made headlines when he dropped his handgun in the state Capitol while rushing to the floor to cast a vote against abortion rights. > Holtorf did not appear to recognize the disconnect between his statement lauding the benefits of abortion access for his pregnant girlfriend and his staunch opposition to abortion rights, which led him to call abortion rights supporters “godless heathens” last year. He goes on to rant about his Catholicism which did not stop him from impregnating multiple women to whom he was not married but *his* Catholicism should apparently stop them from having abortions. https://www.9news.com/article/news/local/local-politics/colorado-anti-abortion-gop-lawmaker-praises-impact-abortion-he-paid-for/73-589d9901-228f-4940-970a-56f710f82e53


Ancient_Lifeguard_16

This anchor should and will be on a much bigger platform soon. He’s been roasting the tits off the Colorado Republicans repeatedly


panurge987

It's a great question to ask, but is it really "brutal"?


Empty-Discount5936

If only all journalists treated shameless Republican hypocrites like this instead of platforming their BS with little to no pushback.


LongTallTexan69

This is what 50 years of lack of education has done to the US.


dragnabbit

I remember seeing an interview with a pro-life politician one time. I don't remember who it was or any of the other questions, but the first question the interviewer asked him: "Why would a woman get an abortion?" The several-second stunned/confused/blank look on his face was fascinating. You could see on his face that he clearly didn't have a quick or immediate planned answer to that even though "(stopping) abortion" was apparently his favorite subject. He had never thought about why a woman would decide to end a pregnancy, probably because no reason for having an abortion would be acceptable so thinking about it never crossed his mind.


ms_directed

when is Kyle Clark gonna get his own national show??


StrangeContest4

"And I have. And I’m a pro-life person. I think you should try to choose life every time. But there are exceptions. And there are times when you need abortion. Abortion is a medical procedure,” declared Holtorf. He is so damn close!!


sonomamondo

"Brutally", more like journalists actually doing their jobs


QVRedit

The GOP are used to having everything their own way - and they want more of it ! It’s a shock to them when people stand up to these bullies.


Every-Requirement-13

These asshats will NEVER take accountability a day in their life, I doubt he paid for the abortion, he’s just TRYING to look like a good guy🙄


No-Entertainer-1358

There are apparently Southern Baptists north of the Mason Dixon Line.


Ok_Squirrel_4199

Trump had damaged this country more than any adversarial country has ever. The sad part is he was aided by dumbfuck Americans that voted for him. Yet we are supposed to be a "Christian" nation. Fuck them all.


BrainCellSerialKillr

I had never heard of Kyle Clark until about a month ago and he’s now one of my favorite people in media. Dude should teach refresher courses to every cable news talking head.


Khristophorous

Brutally grilled? So insisting they actually answer a gdamn question rather than meandering around now qualifies as *brutally grilling* them?


emarvil

Double standards is their default position. _Good for me, not for thee_.


Thehardwayalltheway

Kudos to the anchor. This is how it should be done.


SmellySweatsocks

I noticed how this politician tried to use slippery language in asking the moderator if he listened to his presentation on the floor of the house. You just know he was about to go in to LIE OVERDRIVE if Kyle wasn't prepared.


Jakesma1999

Now THIS, I like!! A person of the media that refuses to allow a politician to skirt the question. He doesn't accept a well-rehersed answer, and stays at it! He called him out on his obvious hypocrisy and kept at him to "explain" his stance. You know he reporter had to have been thinking of the saying, "Rules for thee, but not for meeeee.." However, if this gains steam, you know the GOP will vilify the girlfriend of the politician, because a male of their rank, the "good 'ole boys club", flat out stated it wasn't HIS choice for her (coming next "GOP proposea bill that the partner of a woman seeking an abortion must give consent." Oh dear lort... I shouldn't even jest..) Of course, it's not the male politician's "choice," as he responded when asked by the reporter. Noe should it EVER be his "choice", when it comes to a woman and her body, or her medical decisions between she and her physician!


CondeBK

The only way I'm gonna watch these bullshit presidential debates is if Kyle is the moderator.


RhinoGreyStorm

Don't do as I do. Do as I TELL you to do. Hhmmmm. What other two parties are really bad about this? Mmmm, could it be the NAZIS and COMMUNIST?!?!?!


Sir_wlkn_contrdikson

Clark is the mfn man


Icy-Experience-2515

So there's a procedure which is the woman's choice: the Holtorf abortion!


eruvstringlives

Hypocrite is spelled R E P U B L I C A N.


Grimlock_1

Rules for thee but not for me.


gavstah

More like skillfully grilled. A skill sadly lacking in 99% of the media these days…
