With each new day’s dawn it is becoming harder and harder ignore the mounting evidence that Fox News is acting as the Ministry of Propaganda for Vladimir Putin and Russia. Their top rated host, Tucker Carlson, has openly taken sides with Russia over the interests of the United States. “Why would we pick Ukraine’s side,” he recently asked rhetorically, “and not Russia’s side?”
Carlson also visited Hungary to lavish praise on its pro-Putin puppet, Viktor Orbán. And that endorsement was quickly parroted by Donald Trump, who has not been shy about his preference for Putin. He even tried sabotage President Biden’s summit with the Russian dictator. Which is something he may have picked up from Sean Hannity, who made virtually the same comments a few days prior.
So naturally Hannity is continuing to malign Biden and America with brazenly unpatriotic polemics. To that end he invited Donald Trump Jr on his program to offer a “fair and balanced” analysis of the Russian threat to Ukraine (and ya gotta love Rep. eric Swalwell’s take):
“I get to read reports saying that intelligence is saying that Russians may be launching a cyber attack on America. I don’t think so. I imagine that’s our people lying to us to try to instigate us getting into another war to distract from the incompetence. Do you think our posture in Ukraine has anything to do with his corrupt son raking in millions over the year, and this is the way to cover it up.”
The Trump family remains reliably pro-Putin and anti-America, belittling our own intelligence agencies. And Fox News laps it up. https://t.co/F5vCM3PwH5

Oh! Donnie “gets to read reports,” does he? Notice that he isn’t saying that he reads intelligence, which even Daddy Trump is prohibited from getting due to his “erratic behavior.” And the “reports” Donnie reads are undoubtedly contrived by conspiracy crackpots like Alex Jones or any sitting Republican member of Congress.
In his harangue, the sniveling Trump spawn lets leak an inadvertent truth when he says that “I imagine that’s our people lying to us.” Indeed, he is imagining it. He is imagining what he most desires: that there are “Deep State” government moles concocting nefarious schemes that conform to his anti-American nightmares.
However, Donnie’s conspiracy theory couldn’t be more preposterous. He’s alleging that Biden is plotting to start a war with Russia in order to cover up some imaginary incompetence or minor malfeasance by Hunter Biden (for which there has never been any evidence). That would be like setting yourself on fire to get rid of a pimple. Which I wouldn’t put past Donnie. He really thinks that Biden would consider a war with another nuclear superpower to be preferable to a temporary bad news cycle.
This sort of perverse perspective is par for the course for Junior. Earlier this week he posted a video of himself in which he appeared to be totally wasted. The fact that he could post that video, given his slurred and halted speech, and his bizarre head twitching, is a glaring red flag indicating much deeper emotional and/or psychological problems.
However, the neuroses of the Trumps are equally matched by the fanatical fawning of Fox News. Needless to say, Hannity had no problem with Donnie’s diatribe. It’s the sort of dishonest partisanship that has long been the mission of Fox News. And it was on full display Friday when they aired this cringeworthy clip:
Fox News' Julie Banderas: "Back in June of 2021, [Biden] started talking about his bipartisan infrastructure deal. There's nothing bipartisan about it! If it was bipartisan, it would’ve been passed by now!"

“The fact that he could post that video, given his slurred and halted speech, and his bizarre head twitching, is a glaring red flag… ” (Drunker Donnie)
Oh, it’s a red flag alright! I sure hope like hell that he is NOT reading Intell. Reports — tho it wouldn’t shock me to learn that they were passed to him from a Trump-likker GOP in Congress.
Speaking of liquor/likker… Donny Jr’s ‘wasted video’ going off on Biden was perfect video to use in ads, should Jr ever decide to run for Office, during 1 of his “party nights”. Ads against him, that is! Hate to even think of his fried-egg brain on drugs having a nuke button! “Yikes!!”
The way Rethugs are always projecting their own shit onto Dems, this BS may just be to distract from his “I’m too wasted” video. (Nice that “Uncle Sean” is there to help him out.)
The slurring & slobbering in that video suggests he had too much alcohol. But, the jerky head mvmnts & brain “shorting out” while talking, are signs of way too much cocaine…&/or “meth mania”! His eyes too, were super-glassy & wildly moving around, as if loose in his head & they couldn’t focus. Can get that way if stay up far too long on stimulants. Hungover next day & seeing that video ya’ made, really has to suck! “Embarrassing!”
I came home from a date at wedding/reception 1 night, had too much champagne! (age 17)
Felt fine tho. …until suddenly I didn’t!! My Dad held my hair while I threw-up in toilet – alot! — calmly walked with me to bed. Told him I felt better & laid down. That’s when the room started spinning like on merry-go-round & would not stop! I don’t remember past that.
Next morning, I get up & make b’fast for me & little brother. Felt like I got run over by a bus, but was eating cereal when Dad came out. I knew I was in big trouble! Asked how I felt; “ok” I said. He didn’t yell at me or anything! “Cool”, I thought… “But weird.” He didn’t say a word; put something on table & pushed a button. Suddenly I hear what sounds kinda’ like me? Sounding very strange & saying crazy stuff ~ like, “Daddy, the room keeps going around & around & it won’t stop!” “Make it stop doing that!” …& lots more dumb stuff & retching sounds &….. Yeah. My Dad recorded the whole thing & made me listen while eating b’fast. So Hungover! My little brother’s laughing his fool head off, teasing me ~ Dad’s laughing too. I’m not. That tape went on like that for 1/2 an hour, while I relived it, not wanting to hear it at all. I was sick all over again!
But….I didn’t come home drunk ever again! I don’t even drink now ~ hate the taste of alcohol. Hearing all that next morning sure did “cure me”! LOLOL
That tape was still there when I moved out…my little brother prob’ly still has it. (He thought it was hilarious!)
I’m just glad there weren’t videos back then!
Someone ought to have a “viewing” (collection) of Don Jr’s shit-faced videos.
I’ll renew my belief in God if, when Russia launches the cyberattack on us, the only thing to go down, and stay down, is Faux News.
And Faux has gone down in the past. I remember when two popular journalists (I looked it up. They were Stephen Hayes and Jonah Goldberg.) resigned from Fox News. The reason they gave was Faux’s opinionated hosts supporting EX-president Trump. Their last straw was Tucker Carlson. Yes, the youthful , white-toothed, smiling, racist, white supremacist. They were sick of Tucker’s 3-part take on Jan. 6, spouting nothing but conspiracy theories. It would be good if more Fox journalists resigned. Because of the subject material the other two conspirator theorists, Hannity and Ingraham, keep broadcasting. But then, Faux thrives on propaganda.
What’s going to be done about it though? NOT one d**n thing, as always. NOTHING ever gets done because NOTHING ever will. God forbid ANYTHING happen to TRAITORS lke these 2.
