“This is the most important part. This is right after she was saying, ‘We are run by ABC News, you should trust us,’ not Joe Rogan who believes in dragons,’ so by saying we should trust them because they’re double checked by ABC News and then making the stupidest f–king statement — You didn’t listen to what I said, you didn’t listen to what the wildlife biologist said,” he stated.
