"USA has dropped columnist Cheri Jacobus after the political strategist and frequent TV pundit insulted Republican consultant and Trump ally Michael Caputo’s daughters and suggested that they be used at “parties” by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“Our editors in the opinion section became aware of the tweet by freelance columnist Cheri Jacobus just after noon today,” a spokesperson for the company told TheWrap Thursday evening.
“An hour later after researching the issue, our editors let Jacobus know that she would no longer be writing for USA TODAY,” the spokesperson added. “We have asked her to remove the USA TODAY affiliation from her bio.”
By Friday morning, Jacobus — who once proudly boasted of her affiliation with USA Today in her Twitter profile — had removed any mention of the paper.
Also on Friday, The Hill moved to sever its ties with Jacobus as a columnist as well. “She was a contributor until February and no longer is,” a rep for the Washington, D.C.-based site told TheWrap. “The Hill has no plans to publish her in the future.” "

The pattern I see over and over from leftist writers, celebrities etc are disgusting threats aimed at children - you have to wonder what type of minds conceive of this truly evil behavior. Maybe they are projecting and following the writer's credo: "Write about what you know"?

I've begun to think it stems from a sociopathic antipathy toward other human beings in general--despite their loud claims about how much they care about people. Their actions belie their words. I think they focus on children when they want to hurl particularly nasty insults because they know most "normal" people care deeply about children.

It's as if they're not even human. EVIL as Q says. Or maybe there really are Reptilians on earth.

For whatever reason, many do seem to have holes in their souls.

I'm afraid that applies to many conservatives as well.

True. In fact, Jacobus is Republican.
