Fox News Flunky Jesse Watters Demands ‘Heinous’ Liberals Repent or Be Cast Out of Polite Society

From its very inception, the MAGA Republican movement has embraced the most vicious forms of denigration and defamation. They have taken their cues from their Dear Leader, Donald Trump, whose penchant for infantile insults and toxic tantrums are his most notoriously familiar character flaws.

Jesse Watters, Fox News

Which makes it all the more preposterous that they are now posing as the heralds of decency and civility, and the paragons of purity. Those have never been among the personality traits that any rational person would associate with them. Especially Trump himself, who regularly lashes out at anyone who dares to make even a mild criticism of him.

Naturally, Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda – aka Fox News – is tirelessly on guard to defend Trump’s dishonor. And among the most ferocious defenders is the Fox News Senior Doofus, Jesse Watters. In an incredibly bizarre harangue, Watters unleashed his fury at everyone he blames for the increasing political violence in the country, including the shooting of ultra-conservative organizer, Charlie Kirk.

Of course, Watters blames Democrats and liberals, despite the fact that all of the available evidence proves that right-wingers are far more responsible for it. There was even a study conducted by the National Institute of Justice, an agency of the U.S. Justice Department, that confirmed that far right extremists were more violent. And in the midst of the current controversies, the DoJ disappeared the study. But none of that stopped Watters from raging that…

“These people are incapable of turning the temperature down. So it’s our responsibility to do it for them for the safety of the country and for their own safety. Their heinous movement should be politically destroyed, systematically dismantled. Their financial backing should be bankrupted, their media sponsors defeated [they will be] given one chance to confess and apologize. If they don’t, thrown out of polite society. […]

“And their acolytes in academia, behind the pulpit, in city councils and corporate America will be spotlighted and given one chance to confess and apologize. If they don’t, thrown out of polite society. We cannot live with people and work with people like this.”

Watters has some strange ideas about how to “turn the temperature down.” Apparently his recipe includes maligning his enemies as “heinous” and advocating for them to be “destroyed.” Although he generously offers them “one chance to confess” their sins. And if they submit and repent, then he won’t have them “thrown out of polite society.” How thoughtful. And not at all rhetorically hostile, is it?

It’s notable that Watters has aggregated every possible infidel in his decree. Teachers, pastors, politicians, businessmen, are all guilty of unspecified sins for which they must apologize. Because Watters and other good folks like him “cannot live with…people like this.” And who are the people like that? Well, Watters had decided before Kirk’s shooting suspect was even known. Last week he issued a declaration of war against some amorphous “they” who were responsible, saying that…

“They are at war with us. Whether we want to accept it or not, they are at war with us. And what are we going to do about it?”

Fox Host Jesse Watters: They are at war with us. Whether we want to accept it or not, they are at war with us. And what are we going to do about it?

Nikki McCann Ramírez (@nikkimcr.bsky.social) 2025-09-10T21:12:14.725Z

Everything that Watters is saying is consistent with what Trump has been saying. The MAGA-verse couldn’t care less about lowering the temperature. They want to eliminate everyone who fails to subjugate themselves to Der Fuhrer. And they aren’t shy about admitting it. But unfortunately for them, the rest of us are not going to lay down for them or kneel before Trumpler. We will stand up for the principles of liberty and democracy that America was founded on. We will do so peacefully and with open hearts. And if they don’t want to join us, they can throw themselves out of polite society.

Trump’s DNI and Fox News Manufacture a New Crackpot Conspiracy Theory Accusing Obama of Treason

The Propaganda and Deflection Office of Donald Trump’s White House is working overtime trying to draw attention away from Trump’s salacious relationship with convicted pedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. To that end Trump has been furiously fomenting alternative “scandals” with which to occupy the minds of his cult followers and the compliant media.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin

Among the shiny objects that Trump is dangling before the gullible are his utterly meritless lawsuit against his buddy Rupert Murdoch and the Wall Street Journal, his attacks on Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, his pretending that he forced Coke to change their ingredients, and his unbridled ecstasy from the firing of comedy legend Stephen Colbert.

SEE THIS: Big Baby Trump Celebrates CBS Firing Stephen Colbert and Hopes that Jimmy Kimmel Will Be Next

Much to Trump’s dismay, none of those valiant attempts at misdirection succeeded in diverting the public from the infinitely more compelling saga of Trump and Epstein. Especially since he keeps juicing the story with more obvious lies that only make him look more afraid and guilty.

Consequently, Trump is floating yet another diversion in order to take the heat off of his potentially criminal lechery. He has ordered his Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, to launch a set of dubious allegations aimed at former President Barack Obama regarding the factual history of Trump’s unsavory association with Russia. And Gabbard was the perfect choice to field queries about Trump’s Russia ties, considering her own long held sympathies for Russia and Kremlin propaganda.

Ever obedient, Gabbard called her comrades at Fox News to unload a steaming pile of political manure. Whereupon, Fox News reported that…

“The Obama administration ‘manufactured and politicized intelligence’ to create the narrative that Russia was attempting to influence the 2016 presidential election, despite information from the intelligence community stating otherwise, Fox News Digital has learned.

“On Friday, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified documents revealing ‘overwhelming evidence’ that demonstrates how, after President Donald Trump won the 2016 election against Hillary Clinton, then-President Barack Obama and his national security team laid the groundwork for what would be the years-long Trump–Russia collusion probe.”

Naturally, the story on Fox News, based solely on Gabbard’s “evidence” is flagrantly fictional. They went on to quote Gabbard, or her agents, alleging that President Obama had his Intelligence aides alter their reports regarding how Russia tried to interfere with the 2016 presidential election. According to Fox, Gabbard noted the following from Obama’s Intel…

“‘We assess that Russian and criminal actors did not impact recent US election results by conducting malicious cyber activities against election infrastructure,’ the Presidential Daily Brief stated.”

From that statement, Gabbard and Fox News attached an analysis concluding that Obama ordered the Intel Community to falsify their reports, asserting that Russia never actually interfered with the election at all. It was all, as Trump would say, a “HOAX!” But for some reason, Trump never bothered to reveal this hoax during his first four year occupation of the white House, or during his reelection campaign against President Biden that he lost.

Furthermore, what Gabbard is alleging is not what the documents she provided actually say. They only say that Russia was not successful in trying to alter the outcome of the election – they “did not impact recent US election results” – not that they didn’t try to do so. And on the basis of those misrepresentations, both Gabbard and Fox News lied that after “investigating the matter for months…”

“…their conclusions ‘clearly shows there was a treasonous conspiracy in 2016.’ And that ‘every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted.’

However, there was no such conspiracy shown, treasonous or otherwise, in Gabbard’s documents. Nevertheless, Gabbard is accusing Obama of a capital crime that would result in his execution if found guilty. And she is including several other Obama administration officials in that accusation, including DNI James Clapper, CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director James Comey, National Security Advisor Susan Rice, Secretary of State John Kerry, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe. If they get their way, Trump’s Death Row in his political gulag is gonna be crowded.

Fox News amplified these abhorrent allegations with segments on multiple programs including Sean Hannity and Fox and Friends. The segment that aired on the Jesse Watters program is typical of the dishonesty that they are disseminating. Watters said that…

“We just got a peek inside Obama’s black book and it turns out Barack knew the Russia hoax was a hoax all along but pushed it anyway to sabotage the Trump presidency. DNI Tulsi Gabbard declassifying pages and pages of documents showing Obama’s intel guys briefed him just weeks after the 2016 election that the Russians didn’t actually sway the election [and that Obama] instructed intel agencies to cook up new reports to support Russia collusion.”

Once again, the actual reports said plainly that Russia did try to interfere with the election, not that they succeeded in changing the outcome. And despite her hyperbolic ranting, that’s what Gabbard’s declassified documents said as well. The spin by Gabbard and Fox News – that factual assertions of Russian interference were a hoax, and that Obama had the reports altered – is downright bizarre and grossly defamatory.

That view was shared by by the Republican-led Senate Intelligence Committee that investigated all of this five years ago. The acting chairman of that committee was Marco Rubio, who is now Trump’s Secretary of State. The bipartisan Committee report said that

“…the Russian government engaged in an aggressive, multifaceted effort to influence, or attempt to influence, the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. […] The fifth and final volume focuses on the counterintelligence threat, outlining a wide range of Russian efforts to influence the Trump Campaign and the 2016 election.” […]

“Moscow’s intent was to harm the Clinton Campaign, tarnish an expected Clinton presidential administration, help the Trump Campaign after Trump became the presumptive Republican nominee, and undermine the U.S. democratic process.”

These new allegations are another example of Trump weaponizing the Intelligence agencies over which he presides. Which he is also doing with his Justice, Homeland Security, Treasury, State, and other administration Departments. But it’s even worse than that. He is openly advocating for the execution of his political foes. His remarks on these matters was to say that “I think they’re crooked as hell. And, maybe they have to pay a price for that. I believe they are truly bad people and dishonest people. So, whatever happens, happens.”

If that doesn’t convince his supporters that he is a sociopathic fascist and aspiring authoritarian, in the mold of his heroes Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un, nothing will. But for the rest of the American people, this new scandal/deflection makes it all the more imperative to remove Trump from office before he can do more damage.

UPDATE: Trump and his MAGA cronies are pulling out all the stops to promote this phony conspiracy. He posted a frantic blast of ten new comments about it on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, including one citing it as “treasonous.” They consist mostly of links to Fox News and Breitbart, and this poster created by Gabbard’s crew that is nothing but wild innuendos leading to inane conclusions…

Fox News is Already Downplaying Trump’s Unreleased Health Report Because Trump…Looks Great?

This week Donald Trump went to Walter Reed Medical Center for the first annual physical of his 2025 reoccupation of the white House. As usual, there has been nothing released about the results of the examination, except for what Trump told a reporter on Air Force One.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Trump in Bed, Eating, Sad

Trump’s account of his health was a predictably glowing example of a superior human specimen whose 78 year old body has another 78 prime years left in it. Never mind that he can barely navigate a slight inclined path or play nine holes without his golf cart. And that’s not even addressing his obvious and long-standing cognitive deficiencies.

SEE THIS: Trump Destroys His Own Claim that Russia Wouldn’t Have Invaded Ukraine if He Were President

On Friday’s episode of “The Five” on Fox News, co-host Jesse Watters demonstrated why he is widely known as the dumbest man on television. In a segment about Trump’s physical exam, Watters replied to his Fox colleague, Brian Kilmeade, with his hallmark derpitude…

Kilmeade: Do you think that Trump will grade high in his physical judging from what you can see?
Watters: Healthy as an ox. 6′ 6″, 195, the stamina of an Olympic athlete. We’re gonna get probably a vague statement, and that’s fine. I don’t want to know his health. I think he’s fine. I don’t need to know what pills he is taking or not taking. He looks great.”

It’s unusual for anyone on an alleged “news” network to embrace the withholding of information about government or its key personnel. Generally they will want full transparency and all the info that they can get their hands on. But Watters says that he’s “fine” with knowing nothing, or maybe just a “vague statement”

Why would Watters be so easily comforted with crumbs of data about Trump when he has regularly demanded so much more about Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, or any other Democratic politician? Apparently because he can tell by just looking at him that Trump is in peak physical condition. Consequently, if he actually has any acute medical problems, including brain functionality, that are not visible to his layman’s eyes, Watters couldn’t care less. Trump could be on high doses of psychoactive pharmaceuticals and Watters doesn’t even want to know.

For his part, Trump spoke to a reporter after his exam and told him that he “got every answer right,” on a cognitive test. This is a reprise of his infamous account of his supposed mental acuity because he was able to recite “person, woman, man, camera, tv” in a test that was not measuring IQ, but was a simple test given to people who were being evaluated for early signs of dementia. Then Trump went on to claim, contrary to observable evidence, that “I’m in very good shape. Good heart. Good soul. Very good soul.”

“Good soul”? Trump seems to believe that his annual physical includes a doctor’s examination of his spiritual essence. And that he got a divine endorsement despite his lifelong rejection of faith, his multiple failed marriages, pathological lying, boundless greed, deliberate mismanagement of a pandemic that killed more than a million Americans, separation and incarceration of migrant children, abandonment of Ukrainian allies, incitement of a deadly insurrection, and many more acts of blatant evil that are too numerous to enumerate.

WTF? Does Trump think that in his annual physical the doctor examined his soul?If he had, he would have seen…

News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-04-12T10:11:05.846Z

The White House has said that Trump’s medical report from the physical will be released Sunday. But judging from the reliability of such promises in the past, it would be foolish to expect the report to made public any time soon. And when it is, we can expect it to be heavily redacted so that any honest or useful information will have already been removed.

And that will be fine with Jesse Watters, and everyone else at Fox News, who are content to know only what Dear Leader permits them to know. That’s how cults work.

The Dumbest Man on Fox News, Jesse Watters, Hits New Lows in Dumfukery

The competition for who reigns supreme as the most consistently dimwitted host on Fox News is always a fierce battle among a variety of viable contenders, including Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Jeanine Pirro, Ainsley Earhardt, and Brian Kilmeade, to name just a few. These cretins represent the cream of Donald Trump’s crop of propagandists.

Jesse Watters, Fox News

However, there is one figure who regularly descends to ever lower depths of derpitude so frequently – and so proudly – that he manages to achieve championship status on a runaway basis every time he is in contention. And that highly disgraced loser is, of course, Jesse Watters: A stand out in standing down to the dullards of the MAGA movement and any other wingnut cult that he encounters.

FOR INSTANCE: SIGNALGATE: How Fox News Fouled Up the War Planning Chat Scandal Was More Cover-Up than Coverage

This week Watters sought to paper over what may be the worst national security scandal in decades. His version of the events that are widely recognized to have been a humiliating breach of protocol that put American operations and personnel in danger, was spectacularly lamebrained. Without regard to the welfare of the nation or its military heroes – or to reality – Watters dismissed the matter as a mere accident…

“Democrats thought they had the scandal of the year, and now it’s over. Officials leak to reporters all the time. This time, they accidentally leaked to a reporter.”

First of all, revealing the attack plans of the U.S. military, accidentally or otherwise, is a serious offense that, under ordinary circumstances, would result in prosecution and incarceration. But to Watters it is a triviality. And he engaged in flagrant gaslighting as to the resilience of the story that he absurdly believes has already blown over.

Furthermore, the problem here is not just that classified info was “leaked” to a reporter, which would be bad enough if it had happened. However, it was not leaked. Trump’s crack team of NatSec officials invited the reporter into a top secret planning meeting and freely divulged the military secrets.

The bigger problem is that Trump’s team were talking about attack plans on an insecure, commercial chat app in the first place. And none of them recognized the obvious risks. This is what you get when you put people in charge of critical agencies who are as incompetent as they are ignorant.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Nominees Are Largely Fox News Alum, Mar-a-Lago Patrons, and Billionaires

That, however, was just an appetizer for Watters’ Olympic-grade buffet of buffoonery. He went on to characterize the still explosive scandal as a minor blip on the public’s radar that wouldn’t shake their worship of Dear Leader Trump. Watters gushed that…

“No one outside of D.C. and in the news business really cares about this story. There is no video, there is no sex, there is no fraud. No one even knows what a Houthi is.”

To his credit, Watters perfectly defined the editorial standards of Fox News, where every story has to have some element of sensationalism (e.g. sex), but avoid anything that might challenge the viewer’s limited store of knowledge. If Fox viewers don’t know who the Houthis are, Fox certainly isn’t going to tell them. In short, Watters and his network cater to the shallow gossip and inbred ignorance of its on-air personalities.

For the record, the American people are not as stupid as Watters would like to believe (or is himself). A new poll by CNN contradicts his seat-of-the-pants BSing…

“There’s a lot of interest in this story. Google searches this week vs. last week for these topics – for ‘The Atlantic,’ – How many people are searching for The Atlantic? Up 900%! That is the highest on record since Google searches began back in 2004. How about for ‘Signal,’ the app on which this all occurred? Up over 1,000%. Again, the highest on record…People are interested in this story.”

The poll also revealed that Trump and his Cabinet rank lower than any other administration in modern times. And that’s even before much of the damage emanating from SignalGate – such as potential firings and/or resignations – has had a chance to sink in. Yet, Watters has declared some sort of victory. And that’s why he deserves the crown of crapola that he has fought so hard for.

But let’s not forget the also-rans. Everyone on Fox News deserves a dishonorable mention for their monumentally moronic take on this issue, and virtually every issue that they address.

SIGNALGATE: How Fox News Fouled Up the War Planning Chat Scandal Was More Cover-Up than Coverage

This week the nation was alerted to what may be one of the most serious breaches of national security in modern times. The most senior members of the United States government, including the Vice-President, JD Vance, the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, the Director of the CIA John Ratcliffe, the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, the National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz, and others, were caught discussing military attack planning on a commercial chat program.

Donald Trump, Fox News, Fake

Under ordinary circumstance, this would be the story of the year. And many news organizations treated it as such. However, a conspicuous standout among those that didn’t was, of course, Fox News. The network that was forced to pay a settlement of more than 3/4 of a billion dollars because they repeatedly lied to support Donald Trump’s wholly unsupported allegations of election fraud, has not learned any lessons from that humiliating display of dishonesty and political propaganda. To the contrary, they continue to back a president who seeks to muzzle the free press.

SEE THIS: Trump at the ‘Justice’ Department: CNN, MSNBC, and Other Media are Illegal and ‘It Has to Stop’

Consequently, it should surprise no one that Fox New is fulfilling its mission as Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda with regard to what is becoming known as “SignalGate,” after the messaging app on which the Trump staffers were leaking classified information.

For the most part, Fox News and other MAGA media has soft-pedalled the story, ignoring the glaring national security disclosures and the gross violation of law. Instead, they focused their “reporting” on the detail of how a journalist – The Atlantic’s editor, Jeffrey Goldberg – was included in the chat, and on insulting Goldberg. While allowing a reporter into such a sensitive discussion is a serious breach of protocol, the bigger problem is that all of them where having that discussion on a commercial chat program in the first place.

Some of the worst offenders were among the usual suspects on Fox News. They included…

Jesse Watters, who called it “a wee bit of a security breach”: “Did you ever try to start a group text? You’re adding people and you accidentally add the wrong person? All of a sudden your Aunt Mary knows all your raunchy plans for the bachelor party? Well, that kind of happened today with the Trump administration. […] Well, national security advisor Mike Waltz accidentally added a reporter to the group text and not a good reporter. Jeffrey Goldberg from The Atlantic, one of the biggest hoax artists around.”

Yeah, who hasn’t inadvertently added reporters to a top secret chat on military planning? It’s just like letting your Aunt Mary in on bachelor party plans. Also, Watters lashes out blindly at the widely respected reporter, Goldberg, who handled this story with the high degree of integrity that he’s known for. And then there was…

Sean Hannity, who dismisses it as “phony outrage…that nobody will care about.”: “They are obsessed with an accidentally leaked text, a chain from Trump cabinet officials who are debating the merits of military strikes in Yemen. So the very people that covered up their president’s severe cognitive decline, lied about wide open borders – both of which are clear and present dangers to our country – now want you to believe that they actually give a damn and care about national security.”

Notice that all Hannity has is his tired smears of President Biden that have nothing to do with this. And he thinks that potentially exposing military secrets to America’s enemies is nothing to be concerned about, and that Americans won’t care about it. Because if Hannity doesn’t care, no one else will? And there was…

Will Cain, who at least concedes that this breach “is incredibly concerning,” but goes on to say that: “If you look at the actual content of what was reported, if you look how they discuss potential strikes on Houthis in Yemen, what you will see is…a very collaborative, open, honest, team-based attempt to come to the right decision. After years of secrecy and incompetence, if you read the content of these messages, I think you’ll come away proud that these are the leaders making these decisions in America.

Of course. We should all be proud that these “leaders” unnecessarily risked national security, and the lives of American soldiers, and intelligence sources and methods, on a chat app that they all knew was not secure. This reaches peak absurdity with Cain bragging about “what you will see,” when we should not be seeing any of this. And then there was…

Donald Trump, who typically doesn’t know anything: “I don’t know anything about it. I’m not a big fan of The Atlantic. To me it’s a magazine that’s going out of business. I think it’s not much of a magazine. But I know nothing about it. […] You’re telling me about it for the first time.”

If Trump is telling the truth (doubtful), he is in effect admitting that he is an ignorant boob who is out of the loop. What’s more, he’s implying that his team are keeping secrets from him. These chats took place a couple of weeks ago. The participants all knew what they were up to, and likely knew when Goldberg removed himself from the group. So why didn’t any of them tell him about it? More likely Trump knew and is lying in order to set up the eventual scapegoat.

This is what you get when you fill your Cabinet with utterly unqualified asskissers who were inevitably going to screw up. Did anyone expect better behavior from the likes of Pete Hegseth, who is himself a refugee from Fox News with no relevant experience to run an institution like the Pentagon? And they have only just begun. Trump has only been in office for two months. What will the next 46 months look like, if he makes it that far?

For now, we will have to put up with his incompetence that is manifesting itself in the most nauseating way. His only response to this scandal on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, was to post a pitifully dumb joke about it (via his co-president, Elon Musk) that didn’t even bother to deny the truth of The Atlantic’s reporting, only offering his addled opinion that no one reads The Atlantic…

Here is Trump's only response on Truth Social to The Atlantic exposé that JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, Mike Waltz, Tulsi Gabbard, and others, revealed war plans on a commercial chat program.He makes a joke about it. And not that it isn't true, but that no one reads The Atlantic.

Fox News Host Calls for a Full Federal Takeover of California and Declaration of Martial Law

Just in case anyone has not been convinced that Donald Trump has designs on becoming an imperialist totalitarian like his idol Vladimir Putin, he has lately been maniacally posturing to invade and annex several of America’s international allies, including Mexico, Panama, Canada, and Greenland.

Jesse Watters, Fox News

Trump’s threats in this regard may just be pseudo-macho chest-thumping, or attempts to intimidate foreign leaders with militaristic taunts, or pandering to his MAGA cult that tingles when he pretends to be a tough guy, or maybe he really thinks he can get away with it. Whatever his reasoning, he has the unwavering support of his Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, that is also his primary recruiting pool for his next White House administration.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Nominees Are Largely Fox News Alum, Mar-a-Lago Patrons, and Billionaires

At the bottom of the pile of Trump-fluffing Fox News sycophants, is the network’s crass clown, Jesse Watters. And on Friday he delivered one his hallmark harangues that is littered with lies and perverse propositions. In response to the wildfire tragedies unfolding in Los Angeles, California, Watters floated a plan that his Dear Leader Trump would happily sign onto…

“This is biblical-level destruction. And the city of L.A. is hosting the Olympics in four years. There’s no way we can showcase L.A. to the world. A full federal takeover is needed. Invoke the Stafford Act. The state’s overwhelmed. Martial law might have to be declared.”

This sort of fascist dictatorial control is rapidly becoming the goto solution for every problem that Trump World encounters. Watters’ suggestion that the entire state of California be seized by the Feds would disenfranchise the millions of citizens in the state who repudiated Trump in November’s election. And his logic is patently absurd.

Watters is disparaging the efforts of state and local officials, as well as thousands of first responders who are working their arses off to save lives and property. And he’s concluding from that that the 2028 Olympics should be moved out of Los Angeles.

Great idea. Deprive the city of much needed revenue during a time of crisis following a natural disaster. You may notice that Watters never suggested anything like this after the hurricanes and tornadoes that sweep across Florida, North Carolina, Louisiana, and the rest of the South every freakin’ year.

In addition to his comments above, Watters also made wholly unfounded accusations about California’s state and local officials. Mediaite reports him saying that…

“Primetime is calling for a federal takeover of California. […] We can’t wait for a recall election. This is an issue of national security. This is a public health emergency.”

[And…]

“The elected officials in California can’t be trusted. They’re criminally negligent. […] If they’re left in charge to rebuild L.A., they’re going to steal the money. Nothing’s going to get rebuilt.”

There is, of course, no basis for making those charges, other than the inbred biases of Watters and his knee-jerk hostility toward anyone who isn’t a fellow member of the Trump cult. And he is permitted to go on the air at Fox News with these slurs despite having no proof whatsoever. Remember, it was Fox News that was forced to settle a defamation lawsuit for $787 million due to lies they told about the 2020 election.

Maybe some of the innocent targets of Watters’ lies will step up to sue him and Fox over this new set of flagrant falsehoods. But rest assured that the residents of California will not sit by idly and let Trump invade their state to impose his tyrannical will on them, like he’s proposing to do to Panama, Canada, and Greenland. That would be a good way to get California to petition for secession.

Fox News Embraces Dear Leader Trump’s Imperialist Plans to Invade and Annex Greenland and Panama

This week Donald Trump held a press conference that will stand the test of time as testimony to just how mentally diseased he was prior to the start of his second occupation of the White House. It was an hour plus of pure bullpucky and puerile propaganda. In other words, it was exactly the same as every other press conference he has held.

Donald Trump Fox News

Among the subjects he mangled were his obsession with filling up on filthy fossil fuels, pardoning his StormTrumpers who assaulted Congress, whining about efforts to bring him to justice for numerous treasonous felonies. And his recent maniacal fetish for confiscating the territories of American allies.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Conference is the Best Evidence Yet that He is Positively, Irreparably Insane

While every rational observer recognizes that Trump’s fixation on American expansionism is a dangerous escalation of hostilities with which he is emulating his heroes, Vladimir Putin of Russia, Xi Jinping of China, and Adolf Hitler of Germany, Trump’s official Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, is taking him seriously and marching in lock-step with his malevolent machinations. On Wednesday’s episode of Fox and Friends, the “Curvy Couch” potatoes gave Trump their hearty endorsement.

Ainsley Earhardt (co-host and Sean Hannity’s fiancée): Well, Greenland, strategically, it makes sense. Because it’s the halfway point between our country and the U.K. So it would make sense to have that for war purposes, if we ever got to that point. Also, we have a big space facility there as well. As far as Panama Canal, we built it. 1941 we built it. [Note: it was completed in 1914]. In the seventies it was renamed. [Note: No it wasn’t]. And he wants to take that back. It makes perfect sense. And Gulf of Mexico, if it became Gulf of America… But to me the biggest thing that he said, the biggest accomplishment in the beginning, would be getting these hostages back.

Earhardt’s reasoning is something short of coherent. If the United States were justified in taking over any country that is halfway between itself and some other ally, is there any nation on the planet that would be safe from our cravings of conquest? For instance, France is halfway between the U.S. and Japan. Australia is halfway between the U.S. and India. So let’s take them all over, shall we?

Furthermore, Earhardt’s suggestion that it would make sense to take over any country where the U.S. has military assets would likewise lead to taking over nearly half the planet. And the Gulf of Mexico was named that before the United States ever existed. And as Mexico’s president said, it would make more sense to rename parts of the Western U.S. “America Mexicana.”

Earhardt concluded her babbling with her opinion that Trump’s comments about the hostages currently being held by Hamas in Gaza were his “biggest accomplishment,” which of course, he has not accomplished. What Trump said about that in his press conference was simply a bombastic, pseudo-macho threat that if the hostages are not released before his inauguration, “It will not be good for Hamas and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone. All hell will break out.”

On this Trump is uncharacteristically correct. “It would not be good for anyone.” Particularly the hostages, who would likely be murdered at the first sign of any Trump led attack. That would be followed shortly by hundreds (thousands?) more fatalities of both innocent Gazans, Israelis, as well as any American soldiers involved. And it would put any hopes of cessation of hostilities or peace agreements much farther away.

Joining the Fox and Friends embrace of Trump’s imperialistic yearnings was Jesse Watters. On his Tuesday night program he explained why he supports Trump’s plan to annex Greenland, saying that “The fact that they don’t want us to take them over makes me want to invade. I want to quench my imperialist thirst.” Which is even stupider that Trump’s explanation that “we need Greenland for national security purposes. People don’t even know if Denmark has any legal right to it.”

In the meantime, Trump would then be saddled with wars in Panama, Greenland, Canada, Mexico, and the Middle East. Which will surely fulfill Trump’s campaign promises to put a halt to illegal immigration, create jobs, and bring down the price of eggs America. Right?

Fox News is Promising to Finally ‘Get the Truth About Obama’s Birth Certificate’ – No, REALLY!

LOOKOUT DEMOCRATS! Fox News is on to you and they are ready to blow the lid off of your damnable schemes and deceptions. They aren’t playing around this time. And their investigation is digging deep into the heart of the leftist cabal that has been covertly managed by the master manipulator, Barack Hussein Obama.

Jesse Watters, Fox News

That’s right. The veil is being removed. The curtain is being pulled back. The secrets that have been hidden away in dusty cellars are about to be revealed by the one man at Fox News who has seen through the cons and conspiracies, Jesse Watters. Only he can expose the plots orchestrated by the Obama machine. Just like he did with the election of 2020 that Trump continues to insist was “rigged and stolen.”

SEE THIS: Fox News is Still Pushing the Lie that the 2020 Election Was Stolen that Cost Them $787 Million

On Tuesday’s episode of Fox’s “The Five,” Watters revealed that he had become suspicious of weird “vibes” going on. And who would know better? But he wasn’t gonna sit still for it. He knew there was something fishy in the works, and he knew who was behind it. He told his confederates on the program, and any rubes who happened to be watching, that…

“There is a weird vibe going on. I can’t figure it out. But I will tell you this. Barack Obama is still the godfather of this machine. He gave us Joe Biden as VP. He gave us Hillary [Clinton] as Secretary of State. Then he ‘coup’ed’ Joe, put all his ‘boys’ with Kamala’s team, and had his wingman Holder vet Walz.

“Now he’s at a young 63. He’s gonna be doing this for the next 25 years. He’s definitely gonna interfere in this election. That’s why we will be sending Johnny to Hawaii to get the truth about the birth certificate. This time we will dig deep and find out what really happened.”

HOLY SHIH TZU! It has been Obama all along. Watters remains convinced that Obama was born in Kenya and he grew up to engineer a takeover of America. And just because all of that is patently insane – and has been debunked a thousand times – Watters isn’t going to be deterred.

If this tells us anything about Fox News, and the MAGA malarkey they disseminate, it’s that they have absolutely no rational arguments with which criticize Democrats. So they are clinging desperately to ancient absurdities like the ludicrous “birther” hoax and nonexistent election fraud. That’s in between complaining about Democrats eating ice cream, wearing tan suits, hugging their families, or just generally being joyful. Something that is apparently anathema to Republicans.

In the process, Watters and his ilk manufacture myths about evil masterminds like Obama pulling all the strings behind closed doors. And if that isn’t bad enough, Watters frames the imaginary racket in blatantly racist terms as being run by Obama’s “boys,” who, along with his Black accomplices, Kamala Harris and Eric Holder, staged a “coup” against the White president, Joe Biden, who voluntarily stepped aside and endorsed his VP.

Now, in Watters’ warped mind, anything that anyone does to advance the Harris campaign, he will characterize as election interference. Which Trump also does. But that won’t apply to his own mission to dispatch “Johnny” to Hawaii to probe the asinine birther allegations. Nor to Trump’s firehose of insults and lies that he disgorges an a daily (hourly) basis. When it comes right down to it, the whole thing is just WEIRD!

Trump Still Swears to Take Revenge on Political Foes Even After Lame Attempts to Walk it Back

The prospect of another four years of Donald Trump occupying the White House is a blood curdling notion that most Americans would find more nauseating than dinner with Hannibal Lector who, along with Jeffrey Epstein, has been making more frequent appearances in Trump’s stump speeches at his cult rallies.

Donald Trump Tyrant Dictator

In most presidential campaigns, the candidates focus on detailing their proposals for advancing the welfare of the citizenry whose votes they seek. Trump, however, has been a uniquely unconventional candidate. His pitch to voters is a promise to “be their retribution,” He was even asked by Sean Hannity of Fox News whether he had “any plans whatsoever, if reelected president, to abuse power, to break the law, to use the government to go after people?” To which Trump replied that he would only be a dictator on “day one.” That’s comforting, isn’t it?

SEE THIS: Trump Cloddishly Dodges Hannity’s Softball Questions About Whether He Would Be a Dictator

More recently, Trump and his MAGA media mouthpieces have been attempting to sanitize his most appalling campaign promises to arrest, prosecute, and incarcerate his political enemies. To that end he sat for an interview with Dr. Phil McGraw who tried to give him an opening to soften his stance on vengeance, asking him specifically about his intentions to “make the people that have come after you pay.” But Trump instead replied that “Sometimes revenge can be justified, I have to be honest.”

On Thursday Trump made it clear that he still intends to lock up his critics. He posted a comment on his floundering social media scam, Truth Social, wherein he maliciously and childishly attacked President Biden, the American justice system, and members of Congress…

“It is a Total and Complete American Tragedy that the Crooked Joe Biden Department of Injustice is so desperate to jail Steve Bannon, and every other Republican, for that matter, for not SUBMITTING to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, made up of all Democrats, and two CRAZED FORMER REPUBLICAN LUNATICS, Cryin’ Adam Kinzinger, and Liz ‘Out of Her Mind’ Cheney.”

Although that was just the beginning of an elaborate rant that was typically comprised of flagrant falsehoods and culminated with a call to indict the members of the House Committee Investigating January 6th…

“It has been irrefutably proven that it was the Unselects who committed actual crimes when they deleted and destroyed all material evidence, in a pathetic attempt to protect Crazy Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats from the TRUTH — THAT I DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG. The unAmerican Weaponization of our Law Enforcement has reached levels of Illegality never thought possible before. INDICT THE UNSELECT J6 COMMITTEE FOR ILLEGALLY DELETING AND DESTROYING ALL OF THEIR ‘FINDINGS!’ MAGA2024”

First of all, Trump’s assertion that crimes by the Committee were “irrefutably proven” have no basis in reality. There is no truth whatsoever that the Committee “deleted and destroyed all material evidence.” That’s a lie that Trump has floated before, and it has been thoroughly debunked.

SEE THIS: Trump Demands Indictments Be Withdrawn After Fox News Falsely Reports on January 6th Committee

Reality, however, has not deterred to Trump from calling for indictments and further persecution driven by his wholly fabricated allegations. And he has gotten support from his pals at Fox News. For instance, Jesse Watters did a segment in which he dismissed as a hoax accurate observations by Democrats that Trump “plans to jail opponents.” Kellyanne Conway said that not having prosecuted Hillary Clinton is proof that Trump doesn’t want revenge. Except that he tried to, but failed because his Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, couldn’t find any crime. And Trump recently told Fox and Friends that he never said “Lock her up,” about Clinton. Except that he definitely did…

So regardless of what the Trump-fluffers on Fox News and other right-wing media say, Trump is clearly on a determined course to emulate his hero, Vladimir Putin, by eliminating his opponents by any means necessary. He says so. Believe him. And then be sure to vote for Biden and every Democrat on the ballot to make certain that Trump’s nightmarish vision doesn’t come true.

DELUSIONAL Fox News Host Remembers When ‘Blacks Loved Trump’ and ‘Wanted to Be Trump’

Political campaigns commonly make rosy claims intended to bolster the perceived depths of support the candidate has among various constituent groups. Ordinarily those claims are backed up by at least some kernel of truth. But in the era of the MAGA GOP, all standards of honesty have been discarded as what was once the Republican Party morphs into the Cult of Trump.

Fox News Jesse Watters

Fox News provided an outstanding example of that on Thursday night in a segment of the Jesse Watters program wherein he was “reporting” on Donald Trump’s rally in the Bronx. Throughout the day Fox News covered the rally as if there had been a sighting of the Virgin Mary that drew 100,000 faithful to a park in New York City. Actually, the attendance was more like 2-3,000, and most of them were from out of town, or even out of state. But diverging from the facts never stopped Fox News before.

SEE THIS: Fox News Fans the Flaming Lie that Biden Sought to Assassinate Trump During Search of Mar-a-Lago

Like many others on Fox News, Watters sought to portray the Bronx rally as evidence that Trump has significant support in the Black and Latino communities. He didn’t bother to notice that most of the audience was White in a borough that is 85% people of of color.

Watters went on to complain about the frequent observations of Trump’s blatant racism. However, his comments were typically out of step with reality. He whined that…

“It does seem like they’re trying to say Trump’s racist. And they have to go all the way back into the 80s to say he’s racist. I remember in the 80s, Blacks loved Trump. In the 90s they loved him. In the 2000s Blacks wanted to be Trump. Everybody wanted to be Trump, no matter what color you are. That changed when he ran for president.”

First of all, it isn’t the vindication of Trump that Watters thinks it is to notice that examples of his racism date back 40-50 years. That’s more of a validation. But Watters goes even farther afield by claiming to “remember” the 1980s when “Blacks loved Trump.” Watters was born in Philadelphia in 1978. So he wants his viewers to believe that he recalls Trump’s popularity with Blacks in New York from his years as a toddler in another state.

There is, of course, no evidence that Blacks loved Trump in the 80s, or the 90s, or any time since. Particularly New Yorkers who actually do remember Trump taking out a full-page ad in four newspapers calling for the execution of five Black teenagers (the Central Park Five), who were falsely accused of a horrific rape and murder. Thirteen years later DNA evidence exonerated them. The five eventually received a $41 million settlement from the city of New York in 2014. Trump has never retracted his statement or apologized.

Watters continued his deranged distortion of reality by asserting that “Blacks wanted to be Trump. Everybody wanted to be Trump.” Once again, there is no evidence of any such desire on the part of anyone, with the exception of other privileged White grifters who envied Trump’s shameless deceitfulness in pursuit of greed. Most New Yorkers were repulsed by Trump and his pseudo-playboy aspirations and tawdry friendships with the likes of underage sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein.

Fox News needs to keep spreading blatant lies like these about Trump’s feeble support among Black Americans in order to convince their viewers that he is a shoo-in for the presidency in November. They are an insecure bunch of willfully blind followers who will crumble at the notion that Trump isn’t viewed by everyone as a messiah. So designated fluffers like Watters are dispatched to keep the emotional Kool-Aid flowing. It’s sad that there are still suckers – although relatively few – who continue to fall for it.
