Several things can be true at the same time:
> Rich Lowry did not use a racial slur
> If you've ever met him, you know Rich Lowry would never use a racial slur
> The smear campaign against him is disgusting as is cancelling his appearances based on a lie
> National Review has played the role of the useful idiot to the Left in promoting every single anti-Trump operation from Russiagate to Trump-Zelensky phone call quid pro quo to January 6 with some calling for the impeachment of Donald Trump for the latter two
> NR writers/editors including Lowry were among the first to participate in the character assassination of Nicholas Sandman over a similar falsehood
> NR has completely ignored the cancel culture related to J6 defendants. In many ways, NR has defended the DOJ's ruthless targeting of J6ers including mocking the idea J6ers are political prisoners
> NR's top 2 legal analysts defended DOJ's use of 1512(c)(2) against J6ers--which was overturned by the Supreme Court on July 1.
> NR had an opportunity to oppose the life-destroying lawfare and media crusade against Trump supporters. They did not.
NR helped fuel the same media machine now attempting to destroy Lowry's reputation.

NR's catalog of supporting every media and Democrat-created operation against Donald Trump, his associates, and his supporters is too long to post.
But NR's fueling of the J6 narrative is particularly egregious. Remember--Lowry is editor in chief.
Here is part of a Jan 2022 editorial by NR. It is so misleading that you could almost debunk every single line. This sort of garbage has perpetuated the ongoing character assassination of anyone tied to January 6. (There was no "smoke" FFS.)
NR was one of the first to repeat the lie that Brian Sicknick was bludgeoned to death by a fire extinguisher. After being called out for promoting the lie, NR now regurgitates the media/Dem narrative that Sicknick died because he was pepper sprayed.
Also--read NR's "she had it coming" defense of the killing of Ashli Babbitt.
