President Donald Trump snapped at ABC correspondent Jonathan Karl during a heated exchange on Tuesday, suggesting Attorney General Pam Bondi might target him for hate speech.
President Donald Trump lashed out at ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl on Tuesday after he was questioned about Attorney General Pam Bondi’s recent comments on cracking down on « hate speech » following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
The exchange occurred after Karl asked the president at the White House, « What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she’s going to go after hate speech? Is that, I mean, a lot of people, a lot of your allies, say hate speech is free speech. »
« She’ll probably go after people like you, because you treat me so unfairly », Trump replied, speaking over Karl as he asked if that would be appropriate. « You have a lot of hate in your heart. Maybe they will come after ABC. ABC paid me $16 million recently for a form of hate speech. Your company paid me $16 million for a form of hate speech, so maybe they will have to go after you.
