New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) said Wednesday that Secretary of State John Kerry needed to “get some sleep and shut up” after suggesting there was a clearer motive behind an attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo than the coordinated terror attacks across Paris that left 129 dead on Friday.
Kerry said Tuesday that with the January attack on Charlie Hebdo, there was “a rationale that you could attach yourself to somehow and say, okay, they’re really angry because of this and that.” Christie scoffed at that comment Wednesday morning on Fox News’ “America Newsroom.”
“He needs to get some sleep and shut up, is what he needs. That’s disgraceful,” the Republican presidential candidate said. “For the Secretary of State of the United States to stand up and say that there’s some rationale for what happened in January — these are the kind of weak, mixed signals that this administration sends, that helps to really make the American people think that there is no one watching the store. And there isn’t.”
