Miranda Devine slammed CNN's Don Lemon as "toxic" for claiming the violence during the summer's anti-police riots was justified because it was built on "facts," unlike the Capitol riot.

"You can't compare what happened this summer to what happened at the Capitol. It's two different things. One was built on people, on racial justice ... those are facts. Go look at them. What happened at the Capitol on Wednesday was built on a lie perpetrated by the president," Lemon said Tuesday night during his handoff with "Cuomo Prime Time" namesake Chris Cuomo.
"Political violence is never justified, no matter what the cause, but there you have Don Lemon saying that it is justified, that you can use violence," Devine, also a New York Post columnist, told "Fox & Friends" Wednesday.
Several Democrat-run cities were plagued with anti-police riots and looting, where people died and businesses were destroyed over several months following the police-related death of George Floyd.
Miranda Devine "He doesn't get to choose his own facts and he doesn't get to justify violence and continue on CNN, which should be ashamed of itself, to stoke those fires," she added. "It is so divisive and it is such a hypocritical double standard. It really just causes more division and begets more violence."
"The same people now who are ushering in the National Guard to protect them in Washington were calling President Trump a fascist for calling in the National Guard (during BLM riots)," she said.
