Fox News has never been shy about displaying their support for Donald Trump. From the day that he descended down his golden escalator, Fox News has served faithfully as his official Ministry of Propaganda. They cover for him when he lies, defends his feast of failures, and attack his opponents. Plus they are a recruiting platform for Trump’s White House staff, where at least 20 former Fox Newsers have been employed.

Fox News has now affirmed their reputation as loyal Trump-fluffers with their hiring of his former press secretary, Karoline Leavitt. And it didn’t take long. Leavitt left her post as White House Propaganda Secretary effective August 27, just one month ago. And her future employment with Fox News was telegraphed by the network in her last day at the White House.

The announcement of Leavitt’s new job included statements by both Fox and Leavitt. Her new employer boasted that…

“‘Karoline’s firsthand experience in the White House and on the presidential campaign trail gives her a distinct understanding of today’s political landscape,’ Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott said in a statement. ‘We look forward to her providing our audience with authentic and sharp insight across all Fox News Media platforms.'”

Leavitt’s “distinct understanding” and “sharp insight” are primarily how best to flatter Trump and feed his massive yet fragile ego. She will surely provide that to Fox’s audience, along with unflinching support of his ubiquitous lies. For her part, Leavitt thanked Fox for the job saying that she would be…

“…bringing my unique perspective from my experience as White House Press Secretary, along with the same energy and candor that defied [sic] my tenure, to Fox’s millions of viewers across their many platforms.”

Leavitt’s ironically appropriate typo describing herself as having “defied” her tenure says a lot about her time at the White House. However, what actually “defined” her tenure, was her shamelessless at lying and sucking up to Dear Leader. Trump.

Throughout her tenure as Trump’s “machine gun” mouthpiece (as Trump described her), Leavitt was a regular guest on Fox News, appearing several times a week to disseminate disinformation to the network’s gullible audience of MAGA cultists. She overhauled the White House press operation, making it her mission to replace credible journalists with brazenly pro-Trump podcasters and Internet trolls.

Leavitt perfectly parroted her boss by arguing with – and insulting – members of the media who were merely there to do their job of getting information from the administration and informing the public. Her new job at Fox News won’t be much different. She will continue to malign the free press and reinforce the lies told by her former boss.

In pursuit of those goals, Leavitt joins her fellow former Trump press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, and a former George W. Bush press secretary, Dana Perino. There was another Trump PR flack, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who signed up with Fox News, but later to left to become governor of Arkansas.

It is notable that Trump has not taken any steps to replace Leavitt. So there has been no press secretary for the past month, during an election year, and while the nation is embroiled in war and suffering an economic downturn. As for whoever fills Leavitt’s shoes at the White House, we can all rest assured that it will be someone for whom lying is not a moral problem, and who unwaveringly adores Trump.

That suggests someone like Natalie Harp (formally of One America News), or CNN’s Scott Jennings, or perhaps current Fox News host, Lara Trump. Or even Donald himself. After all, no one else lies more like Trump, or loves him more. All of which makes this position particularly difficult to fill.

Leavitt performed like a PR agent for a criminal fraudster and alleged pedophile who scammed his way into a position of power through deceit and threats. In other words, she was perfectly suited for employment by Trump. And she is likewise perfectly suited for employment by Fox News. So expect nothing to change.
