Jim Acosta on the Failures of Legacy Media and why Kristi Noem Must be Impeached
As part of Wednesday morning’s Coffee with the Contrarians, Norm Eisen and Jen Rubin caught up with Jim Acosta.

Who will stand?
There is no order to the border
There’s chaos in the states
The leader of the free world is imprisoned with the snakes
Cries come from the land for peace
The reply is cold stone ICE
Gun shots ring
People demand truth over the lies.
Who will stand?
The Constitution is attacked,
The government in shambles
The courts disobeyed
The people protest
Who will stand?
The elected cower
The lies are spread
The Country splits
Who will stand?
The neighbors descend
Whistles blow
Cameras roll
Who will stand?
The People with freedom in their veins
Compassion in their hearts
Strength from their struggles
Who will stand?
True Americans
From the melting pot of time.
