ABC was not the only network to try to tie Tuesday’s establishment of an Emmett Till monument to Republicans. CNN and MSNBC also got in on the act with wild and evidence-free declarations about how President Biden is protecting Till’s legacy from Republicans and how such brutal murders still occur today.

CNN Inside Politics host Dana Bash kicked off her show by welcoming White House correspondent Arlette Saenz and asking her what could be expected from the upcoming ceremony. While going through the specifics of the monument, Saenz made sure to add, “The president has long talked about the need to ensure that the moments are not erased from history.”
