(Joshua Paladino, Headline USA) The woke mob wants to see longtime Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak fired from his job in disgrace after 41 years, simply for taking a picture with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., Newsweek reported.
PatriotTakes, a Twitter account that, like Media Matters, conducts anti-conservative smear campaigns, shared the photograph on Sept. 17 to its almost 465,000 followers.

Along with Sajak and Greene was Bryan Glenn, a reporter at Right Side Broadcasting Network.
After the photo leaked online, Twitter troll Jeremy Newberger, who identifies himself as a documentary filmmaker, accused Sajak of “posing with Nazis” because Greene spoke in February at the America First Political Action Conference in Orlando, Florida.
Nick Fuentes, an alleged white supremacist, organized the conference and apparently “praised Adolf Hitler.”
Through these connections, Newberger declared Wheel of Fortune “morally bankrupt.”

BET News host Marc Lamont Hill, a perennial race-hustler, condemned Sajak’s predecssor in the role, Chuck Woolery, an outspoken conservative who called COVID-19 a lie.
“Are all game show hosts trash?” Hill asked.
Sajak, a lifelong Republican, has not responded to the controversy and has not posted on his Twitter since July.
His most recent tweets, however, show a conservative tinge. In them, he criticizes experts, scientific studies and virtue signaling.
In one July 4 tweet, he even quotes fourth president James Madison, the “Father of the Constitution,” on human nature.
“If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary.” Happy 4th of July from James Madison.

Sajak supports several conservative institutions, including Hillsdale College, where he sits on the board of trustees, and Young America’s Foundation.
PatriotTakes reposted old tweets from Sajak that further demonstrate his conservative credentials.
It the past, it looks like Pat Sajak trended on Twitter for calling climate activists, “unpatriotic racists.” pic.twitter.com/cLo2ISSkZ6

Sajak is not the only prime-time game-show host to come under attack. Ken Jennings, one of two co-hosts who replaced longtime Jeopardy! emcee Alex Trebek, drew backlash last week for allegedly letting a male contestant correct his response but not a female contestant.
Ken Jennings is a misogynist bigot. Always has been.
