This amounts to an anecdote. This is the live national television equivalent of a tweet, and then someone wrote an article about the "tweet" this bumpkin made. There is no actual reporting done, no fact-checking (in before someone objects, "But wait! there were no facts to check!"), no following up with other sources. I doubt very much the "source" would agree with her characterization here. This is a nothingburger, and I have to agree with that guy getting spamdownvoted that this source is dogshit, while merrily disagreeing that MBFC is worth even half a turd.

I love how the supposed "law and order" types are out here screeching "calling crimes crime is extreme leftist bias!"

I think anyone associated with "maga" spend most of their lives in a state of confusion.

They probably also believe that the earth is flat. Or that an exiled Nigerian prince wants to bequeath them billions in exchange for helping him smuggle his inheritance out of the country.
