BRAINWASHED Keith Olbermann attacks right-wing influencer

Former ESPN broadcaster Keith Olbermann is exhibiting what BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock calls “the worst case of Trump derangement we have in America.”

In response to a tweet from CNN’s Scott Jennings about late-night host Jimmy Kimmel and his anti-Charlie Kirk comments, Olbermann wrote in a now-deleted tweet, “You’re next, motherf***er.”

“But keep mugging to the camera,” he added in another tweet.

Jennings replied by tagging FBI Director Kash Patel, writing “Cc: @FBIDirectorKashPatel.”

“I don’t blame Scott Jennings, because Olbermann is setting a tone out there that, like, ‘Hey, Scott Jennings is worthy of death because I disagree with him because he’s conservative,’” Whitlock says.

“I didn’t think it could get any worse for Keith Olbermann, but it is,” he continues. “And he actually needs help. I mean real help. Someone needs to do a mental health check on Keith Olbermann and get him some additional help.”

BlazeTV contributor Steve Kim agrees, but is saddened by Olbermann’s fall from grace.

“I always thought, ‘Man, this is a highly intelligent individual,’” Kim says of growing up watching his career. “Now he’s just become deranged. And I don’t have an issue with his political beliefs.”

“I really don’t. We have to be honest about this. We’re not going to agree with everybody. But the extreme that he takes it now, to a point of, basically — I don’t even know if it’s a veiled threat,” he continues.

“It seemed like a threat, not from him, but almost an invitation for someone else to do it because you are talking about tone and tenor within our current climate in America. It’s almost like he’s saying, ‘Please, someone do this,’” he adds.
