Reminding us yet again that there is a level lower than the bottom of the barrel, late-night “comedian” and overall looney leftist Samantha Bee mocked a young man who attended this year’s CPAC for having “Nazi hair.”
It turns out Kyle Coddington, who does in fact have close-cropped dark hair, also has stage 4 brain cancer. The truth came out in a tweet from his sister, Megan, who saw Bee’s video montage and fired back:
When @iamsambee makes fun of your brother for having "Nazi hair." He actually has stage 4 brain cancer, but whatever floats your boat. pic.twitter.com/ULJC8nA3IX

(Sidenote: Megan deserves serious props for the classy response. Mine probably wouldn't have been as polite.)
The "Full Frontal" host eventually kinda-sorta apologized to both Kyle and Megan (mostly for the insensitive oversight, not for calling young conservatives “Nazis” in general).
@meg_kelly16 We deeply apologize for offending you and @_that_kyle. We only learned of his condition today & have removed him from the piece

But after being so ruthlessly and publicly mocked by the "tolerant" left, it looks like there’s a silver lining for Kyle and his family. Kyle’s GoFundMe page, set up two months ago to help cover his medical expenses, has rapidly shot past its modest goal of $2,500 – by more than 2,000 percent.
As of 8:30 a.m. Friday morning, 946 people had donated a whopping $54,364 toward Kyle's fund, and that number climbs by the minute. In fact, by the time most readers land on this story, that total will probably be far in the rearview mirror. Donors have left gifts ranging from $5 to $100 and above, along with encouraging notes and promises to pray for Kyle and his family.
One donor, who gave $7, wrote:
Saw you on Fox & Friends this morning! I'm so sorry this is all I can afford right now, but I just wanted you to know my family will keep you in our prayers, and your family as well! God has got you! No matter what, keep fighting!!!
So in a way, thanks for being such a despicable low-life, Sam. Eat your heart out.
