Consider what Kirk said about Black women leaders and affirmative action. Assailing affirmative action “picks” Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, Ketanji Brown Jackson, and Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, Kirk said, sickeningly, “you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken seriously” without affirmative action. “You had to steal a white person’s slot.”
Having listened to Matt Taibbi on this subject yesterday, it has become entirely clear that he did NOT say that. It was a lie and a smear against Kirk.

Here, it is exquisitely explained by JD Vance and by Taibbi in the discussion that follows, including Taibbi's excellent explanation of how it happened, and how the quite was able to get through the "system" of the Nation's rules on quoting. Well worth reading.
