"I'm not going to sit here and debate with you about you know, whether it's inhumane or unconstitutional to go in and and rip people away from their families and deport them with no due process. Like that's not a debate for me. It's not a debate for me to tell you about my experience on January 6th. I couldn't care less about convincing you."
"But that's the problem. If she was to go on that show and say, what you're saying right now, Scott Jennings or whatever is a lie. But she does it on other in in other venues. And the other thing she's doing is she's elevated Scott Jennings' platform to a position now where he has this you know tremendous podcast and he's become a darling of the right."
Michael Fanone criticized CNN's decision to feature Scott Jennings, accusing Jennings of repeatedly lying in defense of President Donald Trump and undeserving of a media platform. Fanone rejected debating MAGA or trying to persuade supporters on issues such as deportations without due process. Fanone emphasized that recounting his January 6 experience is not aimed at convincing opponents but at defeating and removing extremist ideology from political discourse. Fanone argued that elevating Jennings has amplified his reach through a successful podcast and made him a conservative favorite, which Fanone finds harmful to public debate.
