Crybaby Trump Demands a Televised Public Apology From Zelenskyy to Satisfy His Hurt Fee Fees

Posted by Mark NC on March 3, 2025 at 1:08 pm. 2 Comments :

Last Friday Donald Trump hosted Ukrainian President Zelenskyy at the White House for what was billed as a meeting to affirm U.S. support for Ukraine’s battle against Russia’s imperialistic aggression. The meeting was also supposed to include the signing of an agreement for the U.S. to share in revenue from Ukraine’s rich mineral deposits.

In other words, it was an attempt by Trump to extort profits from Ukraine’s natural resources in exchange for protection from Trump’s pal Vladimir Putin, who would also benefit from the mineral rights agreement. This is how the Mafia operates, by making threats to coerce innocent parties to hand over their wealth or suffer the consequences of not submitting. It’s a tactic that Trump learned from his friends in organized crime.

SEE THIS: Was Trump’s Ambush of Zelenskyy Preplanned, Including Stacking the Press Pool with Kremlin Hacks?

Unfortunately, Trump purposely drove the meeting into a ditch by throwing another of his hallmark tantrums and berating Zelenskyy for not being nice enough to Putin (who invaded his country and was still massacring his people), or grateful enough to Trump (who is always only interested in what he can get for himself). Consequently, the mineral rights deal was not signed, and Trump backed out of continuing support for Ukraine’s defense.

On Monday morning Trump’s team laid out their terms for restarting negotiations with Zelenskyy. In a response to Fox News White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, Trump demanded that Zelenskyy apologize to Trump. For what? For having the patience and grace to sit through the infantile harangues of Trump and JD Vance without shouting back with the same ferocity, despite how much it was deserved? Or for calmly maintaining his composure even though the fate of his nation and people was being threatened by a petulant whiner? Here is how Doocy described the statement from the Trump camp…

“I have been told by a senior official here that nothing is gonna happen with this minerals deal until Zelenskyy goes in front of cameras and makes an explicit public apology for the way that he behaved himself – behaved in the Oval Office with that meeting.”

If it's true that Trump won't deal with Zelenskyy until he gets a "public apology," it only confirms that he's a sniveling whiner with the emotional maturity of 2 year old. And that he couldn't care less about the human cost.And of course it proves that #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

So the Trump regime’s position is that a war started by Trump’s idol and role model, Putin, would continue unless Zelenskyy kissed Trump’s…let’s say ring. And Trump is insisting that the smooching be televised in a melodramatic reality TV style moment. Because that’s how simplistically narcissists like Trump view the world.

Furthermore, Trump has pre-announced the terms of any agreement between Ukraine and Russia, which would require Ukraine to concede its land and sovereignty, including the right to join NATO. As for Russia, Trump has not proposed that they make any concessions whatsoever. And this is the dealmaking prowess that Trump likes to brag about, where you give away everything before any negotiations have even begun?

Trump literally told Zelenskyy that he “doesn’t have any cards” to play. That’s not actually true, but more to the point, smart poker players generally don’t tell their opponents they have lousy hands. But Trump did so in front of international news media, including Russia’s state-owned media, TASS, that Trump’s staff later said was not approved to be there. But they still can’t explain how they got into the Oval Office in the first place. Can just anyone wander in without being noticed?

Where things stand now is that Trump is waiting for Zelenskyy to make a public apology. The best that he is likely to get is an expression of regret that the meeting didn’t go better. Which was entirely Trump’s fault. Because he is too cowardly and beholden to Putin to seek anything that is in the interests of Ukraine, or even America. And he posted that sentiment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Monday morning, saying that “We Should Spend Less Time Worrying About Putin.”

Is anyone surprised Trump wants to spend less time worrying about his idol & role model, Vladimir Putin, who is a brutal tyrant & war criminal?But instead he tries to instill fear of imaginary crime waves, that for some reason he associates with Europe. #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

Fox News Stumps Trump’s National Security Adviser About Who is Responsible for the War in Ukraine

Posted by Mark NC on February 20, 2025 at 2:21 pm. 2 Comments :

Late last year, in the midst of the presidential campaign, Donald Trump made one of his notoriously preposterous proclamations that no rational person would ever take seriously. So naturally, his MAGA cult followers, and virtually every Republican politician, bought it hook, line, and stinker.

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

This particular proclamation concerned the war in Ukraine and Trump’s assertion that he alone held the key to resolving the conflict and ending the war. What’s more, he insisted that he could do it within 24 hours of his inauguration with a single phone call. And it wouldn’t even impede his other critical work on behalf of the American people.

SEE THIS: Trump is Busy Doing the People’s Work: Pushing for Plastic Straws and Firing Journalists?

Needless to say, Trump’s deadline is long past and the war in Ukraine is raging on with no end in sight. Trump did dispatch his Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, and National Security Adviser, Mike Waltz, to Saudi Arabia to initiate negotiations. However, he didn’t bother to invite Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. So it’s ridiculous to presume that any progress toward peace could result.

What makes progress even less likely is that Trump and his team refuse to recognize the most basic realities concerning the matter. An example of their obtuse perspective was seen in the remarks by Waltz to Fox News Thursday morning. Waltz was asked by Fox’s White House correspondent Peter Doocy…

Doocy: Who does Trump think is more responsible for the Russian invasion of Ukraine? Putin or Zelenskyy?
Waltz: Well look, his goal Peter is to bring this war to an end. Period. And there has been ongoing fighting on both sides. It is World War I-style trench warfare. His frustration with President Zelensky is, that you’ve heard, is multifold.

One, there needs to be a deep appreciation for what the American people, what the American taxpayer, what President Trump did in his first term, and what we’ve done since. So some of the rhetoric coming out of Kiev, frankly, and insults to President Trump were unacceptable, number one. Number two, our own Secretary of Treasury personally made the trip to offer the Ukrainians what is – can only be described as a historic opportunity.

DOOCY: Who does Trump think is more responsible for Ukraine? Putin or Zelenskyy?WALTZ: Well look, his goal Peter is to bring this war to an end. Period.

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-02-20T18:41:30.458Z

Doocy threw a proverbial softball to Waltz, asking “who is more responsible for the Russian invasion of Ukraine?’ The answer (the Russian invasion) was right there in the question. And yet, Waltz swung and missed by a mile. He never even got close to agreeing that Putin was the invader who a attacked a peaceful neighbor. If this is how badly he whiffs on a question from Fox News, imagine what would happen if he ever allowed a real journalist to interview him.

What Waltz did say was that we all “need” to “appreciate” Trump for what he did. Because, like all cults, Dear Leader must be praised at all times. Can anyone explain what Trump did for Ukraine that deserves appreciation? Waltz also ragged on Zelenskyy for allegedly insulting Trump. Then he followed that up by reiterating Trump’s demand for Ukraine to payoff Trump as if he were a mob boss operating a protection racket. Which, truth be told, he is.

In reality, it is Trump who has engaged in infantile insults based on flagrant lies. He posted a rambling, incoherent rant on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, wherein he blamed Zelenskyy for the war that Russia started, dismissed him as a “modestly successful comedian,” called him a dictator, accused him wanting “to keep the gravy train open,” and lied that he “is very low in Ukrainian Polls.” But through it all, Trump never says a single word criticizing his BFF, Vladimir Putin, or suggesting that Russia make any concessions for peace.

Trump posts a tediously long comment about Ukraine that blames Zelenskyy, America, and President Biden, for the war that Russia started by invading their peaceful neighbor.Yet Trump never says a single word criticizing the monstrous Putin who Trump idolizes & seeks to emulate.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-02-20T20:24:58.320Z

One thing that Trump makes perfectly clear is that he is working for Putin. And every Republican who fails to call out that treason is complicit in it. And that goes for the media as well.

Trump’s Press Secretary Stumped When Asked If It’s Safe to Fly – By Peter Doocy of Fox News

Posted by Mark NC on January 31, 2025 at 2:06 pm. 0 Comments :

Within hours of the news that an American Airlines jet had collided with a military Blackhawk helicopter and crashed, killing everyone aboard both aircraft, Donald Trump had already drawn his conclusions as to the cause. He surmised that the cause of the tragedy was hiring practices that promoted diversity, equity, and Inclusion (DEI). He followed that up by blaming Presidents Obama and Biden.

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

Never mind that Trump had no evidence whatsoever that his racist conclusions had any merit, or even a remote relationship with reality. He neglected expressions of concern or condolences in order to advance his agenda of noxious bigotry, and to exploit the tragedy to attack his political foes. And of course, that narrative was faithfully supported by his obedient politburo chief, Karoline Leavitt, who has been busy clearing press credentials for devoted MAGA cultists.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Secretary Pledges to Plant Pro-Trump Crackpots in the White House Press Room

On Friday morning, the White House press briefing took a bizarre turn when Peter Doocy of Fox News rose to ask Leavitt a question about the safety of air travel in America. He made an uncharacteristically insightful point about the consequences of Trump’s drumbeating of disparagement toward employees in the aviation sector that he regards as being too dark skinned, feminine, or otherwise representative of the diversity of the nation.

Doocy: If president Trump is telling us that air traffic control towers are staffed with unqualified controllers, DEI hires who never should have been brought on, then it’s not safe to fly commercially, is it?
Leavitt: The president was asked and answered this yesterday, and he believes that it is still indeed safe and Americans should feel safe traveling our skies. With that said, two things can be true at the same time. And we certainly have seen the deterioration of federal hiring standards at the Federal Aviation Administration. And the president wants to increase those standards.

PETER DOOCY: Given DEI hires, it's not safe to fly commercially, is it?LEAVITT: The president believes it is still indeed safe. With that said …

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-01-31T18:17:09.467Z

Doocy’s question staggered Leavitt. It makes sense to reason that aviation safety is at risk if the people responsible for it are incompetent and/or unqualified, as Trump insists. And anyone who accepts Trump’s assessment should keep their feet firmly planted on the ground, rather than put their lives in the hands of freeloaders who shouldn’t have been hired. Right?

Well, according to Leavitt, the answer is more complex. She argues that “two things can be true at the same time.” In her view, the pilots, air traffic controllers, and other aviation staff can be inferior clods who, nevertheless, are still perfectly able to insure the safety of American travelers. Except for the times that they cause jetliners to crash into the Potomac. Leavitt elaborated on her duplicity theory saying that…

“When you’re flying with your loved ones, do you pray that your airplane lands safely and gets you to your destination or do you pray that the pilot has a certain skin color? I think we all know the answer.”

The choices Leavitt offers here are absurd in the extreme. Obviously every air passenger wants to land safely. But nobody “prays” that “the pilot has a certain skin color.” Well, except for racist Trump cultists and MAGA disciples who will only approve of white pilots. For instance, Trump flunky Charlie Kirk actually said “I’m sorry. If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, ‘Boy, I hope he’s qualified.'”

Trump’s obsession with casting blame on Blacks, women, Democrats, and others for whom he has a visceral, inbred hatred, is emblematic of his rancid divisiveness. And in the furtherance of his prejudices, he couldn’t care less about whether or not what he’s saying about DEI true. And as PolitiFact affirms, it isn’t. But that won’t stop him. He won’t stop lying because he’s pathologically incapable of it. What’s more, he knows that his cult followers not only accept it, they love it.

Trump-Humping Hack Wants to Ban Everyone But Peter Doocy of Fox News From White House Press Room

Posted by Mark NC on December 23, 2024 at 3:32 pm. 0 Comments :

The MAGA media mob is growing more aggressively authoritarian with each passing day. The prospect of Donald Trump reoccupying the White House has them bursting with confidence that their Project 2025 plot to infest the U.S. government with unabridged neo-fascism can proceed unchallenged.

Click here to Tweet this article

Leading their agenda for the Trump regime is an effort to purge the White House press corps of any and all reputable journalists and others who are not fully indoctrinated Trump cultists. They are determined to banish reporters who might cause trouble by actually reporting the truth about Trump and his administration’s corruption and malfeasance. And they aren’t shy about their nefarious intentions…

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Secretary Plans to Turn the WH Briefing Room Into a Pro-Trump Propaganda Mill

Among those seeking to Trump-itize the White House press corps is long-time Trump flunky, Hugh Hewitt. On a recent episode of his podcast, Hewitt floated this preposterous suggestion that is staunchly aligned with the approach to the press that is favored by the likes of Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un…

“With the exception of Peter Doocy, I would ban everyone from the White House press room who has been there for the past four years because they are obviously of no use to the country. They didn’t tell us the number one thing, which is that he’s not competent. Why in the world would Trump let them in? […] ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, Washington Post, New York Times, those five brands are broken beyond broken after this expose. Is there any way you could trust anything that they say?

If this is an exaggeration, it's a slight one. IF.
"With the exception of Peter Doocy, I would ban everyone from the White House press room who has been there for the past four years because they are obviously of no use to the country." – Hugh Hewitt pic.twitter.com/MllDLHhfaa

— Caleb Howe (@CalebHowe) December 23, 2024

REALLY? Hewitt thinks that only the most partisan hack in the press room, Peter Doocy of Fox News, should remain there, and everyone else be cast out? That would make for a pretty dull daily press briefing with only Doocy asking questions of Trump’s predictably dishonest press secretary, Karoline Leavitt.

Although they could fill the empty seats with Trump-approved asses such as Hewitt, Joe Rogan, Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Laura Loomer, Alex Jones, etc. That way they would be assured of fielding only friendly questions, to which they would still provide non-answers that were mostly lies and smears.

What’s more, Hewitt is so appalled by the media that he can’t understand how anyone “could trust anything that they say.” So his solution is to limit the media outlets to the one that was found to have lied so horribly that they were forced to pay a settlement of nearly a billion dollars.

The specific complaint that triggered Hewitt’s rant was his view that the media – except for Doocy – didn’t properly cover what he believes was President Biden’s diminished mental capacity. But even if you give him a pass on that brazenly biased perspective, he’s leaving out something that would be just as relevant. And that’s the obviously diminished mental capacity of Trump. Here’s how the Daily Show presented it by using Fox News attacks on Biden, but showing Trump video instead…

Fox News is very concerned that this presidential candidate's brain isn't working pic.twitter.com/VGfUgG0tE3

— The Daily Show (@TheDailyShow) March 25, 2020

These cretins don’t have any appreciation for the traditional purpose of the Press Room, which is to provide journalists with access to the president and his staff in order to inform the public, not to become a partisan propaganda mill where only those who have sworn allegiance to Trump can participate. But that’s precisely what Hewitt wants. And it’s also what the Trump media team want. The only problem they face is that it isn’t what the American people want. But if they pursue this strategy, they will find out soon enough.

FLYING KETCHUP ALERT: Peter Doocy of Fox News Reports New Poll that Shows Biden Beating Trump

Posted by Mark NC on February 1, 2024 at 12:56 pm. 2 Comments :

The 2024 presidential election cycle is still at a pretty early stage with both candidates seeking their party’s nomination. Joe Biden, of course, is the incumbent Democratic candidate with no serious competition. Donald Trump, however, is in a near panic, despite the fact that he has faced relatively light opposition from Ron DeSantis, who has dropped out, and now Nikki Haley, who is ramping up her attacks.

Click here to Tweet this article

For the past several weeks Biden has trailed Trump in many polls, and has suffered with low approval ratings. But Trump’s approval hasn’t been any better. Nevertheless, Trump and his MAGA media minions have made a point of celebrating every poll that showed Trump ahead, even if it were only by a point or two and within the margin of error. And yet, Trump still can’t find any comfort in the numbers that he slobbers over.

SEE THIS: Even After Winning, Trump Has a Post-Primary Meltdown, Attacking Friends and Foes and Fox News

On Thursday morning, Fox News White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, was interviewed by his father, Steve Doocy, on Fox and friends. The subject of the segment was a new poll by Quinnipiac that put President Biden ahead of Trump by six points (50-44). It appears that the American people are starting to feel the the positive effects of Biden’s leadership, and that is beginning to be reflected in the polling. The younger Doocy reported that…

“The trends here may be changing because President Trump, former President Trump, has been leading national poll after national poll over President Biden for the last couple of weeks, but not in this one. And maybe it’s an outlier, maybe it’s not. But Quinnipiac had Biden up on Trump six points, 50 to 44.

“The Biden team has been trying to pivot to general election mode. They’ve been focusing on abortion access and on union jobs. And the Trump team has spent the last week or so dealing with his legal issues.”

Trump is not going to take this well. He has been known to viciously lambast Fox News whenever they are something less than unwaveringly worshipful. And he is particularly infuriated when they dare to report the results of polls that show him behind.

Doocy correctly points out that Biden has been campaigning on substantive issues that the American people care about, such as abortion and jobs. He could have also mentioned the booming economy, climate and environment, healthcare, gun reforms, tax equity, and saving democracy.

Meanwhile, Doocy gently touches on the fact that Trump is wholly consumed by his “legal issues,” which include 91 felony charges and a recent $83.3 million judgment in favor of E. Jean Carroll, the woman he raped and defamed.

Doocy continued his poll analysis, noting that third party candidates like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. take votes from both candidates, but that Biden still beats Trump 39 to 37. Then he observed that Nikki Haley was ahead of Biden 47-42, but that she is unlikely to get the Republican nomination.

All told, this is the sort of report that is likely to trigger a Trumpian aneurism. Mar-a-Lago staff has been put on Red Alert for incoming ketchup bottles. And Dr. Rep. Ronny Jackson, aka “The Candyman,” is on call for distribution of additional doses of Adderall and other psych meds.

WHOA! Peter Doocy of Fox News Reports that the GOP Failed to Find Any Evidence to Impeach Biden

Posted by Mark NC on December 8, 2023 at 11:51 am. 3 Comments :

It has been nearly a year since the Republican Party assumed their razor-thin (and shrinking) majority in the House of Representatives. In all of that time they have vigorously avoided and/or opposed any legislation that would actually have a positive effect on the lives of the American people.

Click here to Tweet this article

Instead, the GOP has been laser-focused on partisan political stunts and brazenly dishonest attacks on President Biden and other Democrats. They have held dozens of hearings intended to expose alleged Biden improprieties, but in every case their own witnesses testified that Biden was beyond reproach. It got so humiliating for Republicans that James Comer, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, now refuses to hold any more public hearings.

SEE THIS: GOP and Fox News Oppose Public Testimony By Hunter Biden Because Then They Can’t Lie About It

Nevertheless, the GOP is continuing their crusade against Biden and is pursuing a formal impeachment inquiry, despite not having a shred of evidence of any wrongdoing. And it isn’t just Democrats and liberals saying that. On Friday morning Peter Doocy, the notoriously biased Fox News White House correspondent, appeared on the network to report on the GOP’s plan to vote on an impeachment inquiry next week. However, Doocy detoured to some unexpected honesty from him regarding the matter…

“The House Oversight Committee has been at this for years, and they have so far not been able to provide any concrete evidence that Joe Biden personally profited from his son Hunter’s overseas business. But they are gonna try again with this impeachment inquiry that’s set to start next week.”

— Biden-Harris HQ (@BidenHQ) December 8, 2023

That’s right. Doocy is affirmatively refuting the Republicans who have been making innumerable appearances on Fox News insisting that they have irrefutable evidence of Biden’s guilt. Never mind that each time they present it, it is quickly and easily debunked as nonsense and lies. And the chief liar for the GOP is their new Speaker, Mike Johnson…

It’s remarkable that Fox News allows Republicans on the air to openly lie about matters that are conclusively contradicted by their own reporters. And it’s interesting to note that in this case it isn’t even the first time. Peter Doocy’s father, Fox and Friends co-host Steve Doocy, has also disputed the GOP’s arguments against Biden…

SEE MORE: UH-OH: Even Fox News Rejects the GOP’s ‘Evidence’ to Impeach Biden as ‘Completely Unverified’

This, however, is standard operating procedure for Fox News. They have never cared much for facts. And they aren’t shy about shaming their own “journalists” in order to advance their MAGA propaganda agenda. Consequently, there are many examples of Fox’s right-wing hosts and guests disseminating falsehoods that contradict news reporting that aired sometimes minutes before. Because on Fox News, spreading partisan fiction always trumps the truth.

Biden Deftly Dunks Fox News Hack Peter Doocy’s Dumbass Questions About Age and Polls

Posted by Mark NC on November 9, 2023 at 1:23 pm. 4 Comments :

Although it’s still early in the 2024 election season, the candidates for president for both parties are presumed to be settled. The incumbent, President Joe Biden, doesn’t face any serious challengers. And the Republicans are all too glassy-eyed and devoted to their Dear Leader, Donald Trump, to consider anyone else. Never mind the handful of GOP wannabes who are fantasizing that they have a shot at it.

Click here to Tweet this article

Both Biden and Trump have vulnerabilities that are weighing on their respective campaigns. Trump’s are that he has four indictments and 91 felony charges pending against him, along with the fact that he is broadly despised as a lying, narcissistic, sexual assaulter, who tried to undermine democracy and impose an authoritarian dictatorship. Not to mention that he is also suffering from severe mental deterioration that is evident every time he speaks.

SEE THIS: ‘It May Just Be that Mr. Trump is Incoherent’ – Says NBC Legal Analyst About Trump’s Testimony

As for Biden, virtually the only criticism that his Republican opponents can cite is his age. Well, there’s is also their complaints that he is a “radical Marxist thug” who hates America, but let’s try to keep this assessment anchored to reality. Yes, Biden is old. But then so Trump. Yet somehow, only Biden’s age is an impediment to reelection.

This hypocrisy on the part of the press was on display Thursday morning when Biden met with reporters for a quick Q and A. As always, Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy was there. And as always, he asked the most asinine questions. The brief exchange between Doocy and Biden went as follows…

Doocy: Why do you think it is that people should be more concerned about abortion access than your age?
Biden: I don’t think it’s a comparable comparison.

Biden was exceedingly polite in his response. Indeed, it was a ridiculous comparison. A Doocy-to-Coherent dictionary might have translated his question as, “Why do you think it is that people should be more concerned with women being able to make decisions about their own healthcare, than about phony, partisan, political attacks by Republicans and Fox News? Did Doocy really expect an answer to that bull manure? And as if that weren’t bad enough, Doocy had a follow up…

Doocy: Why do you think it is that you’re trailing Trump in all these swing state polls?
Biden: Because you don’t read the polls. There are ten polls. Eight of them I’m beating him in those states. Eight of them. You guys only do two. CNN and the New York Times. Check it out.

Biden and Peter Doocy have a moment pic.twitter.com/QUTQ1W9AmE

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) November 9, 2023

Don’t expect Doocy to check that out. He is only interested in quick hits that he can send back to the Fox studio where they will edit it to make Biden look like he’s mentally incompetent. He probably doesn’t even know that the last Fox News poll showed Biden beating Trump. Which is something that even Trump notices, and frequently whines about on his failing social media scam, Truth Social.

Doocy’s questions are invariably irrelevant to anything that the American people care about. They are designed for one purpose: to try to get Biden to commit some sort of verbal gaffe that they can spend the next three days yammering about. However, Biden’s answers are further evidence of his mental acuity and good humor.

Not that any of that will get into Fox’s story when they get around to reporting this encounter. Anything that doesn’t meet their criteria for pro-Trump propaganda ends up on the editing room floor. Heaven forbid that Fox’s viewers might be exposed to the truth that Biden has a sharp intellect and a firm grasp on the issues. As opposed to Trump, the “stable genius” who is still trying to convince people that he won in 2020, by a landslide.

Trump has been saying for three years that he has "proof" that he won the 2020 election and that he will release it soon. What's he waiting for?

And how stupid do you have to be to still believe that nonsense? MAGA = Make America Gullible Again! https://t.co/FyGPxacNV6

Peter Doocy of Fox News is APPALLED that Biden is Working to Free American Hostages in Gaza

Posted by Mark NC on November 2, 2023 at 1:44 pm. 2 Comments :

The war being waged in the Middle East between Hamas terrorists and Israel continues to produce horrific casualties for innocent civilians on both sides. The Biden administration has been staunchly supportive of the right of our allies in Israel to defend themselves, as well as the welfare of Palestinians in the line of fire and those displaced by the conflict.

Click here to Tweet this article

In the meantime, Republicans in Congress have lowered themselves to politicizing the issue by conditioning critical aid to Israel and Gaza civilians on a callously political handout to America’s ultra rich and corporations. The GOP scheme pairs the aid to a cut in funding for the IRS, which would result not only in allowing wealthy tax cheats to get away with their crimes, but also a $26 billion increase in the nation’s budget deficit.

SEE THIS: Republicans in Congress are Holding Israelis Hostage to Aid for Wealthy American Tax Cheats

With all of that roiling the political environment in Washington, Fox News White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, sought to contribute his unique brand of bias and deflection during a press briefing on Thursday morning. The predictably partisan narrative stuffed into his loaded questions resulted in the following exchange with John Kirby, the spokesman for the National Security Council…

Doocy: Talking about getting Americans out of Gaza, President Biden said “I want to thank our partners in the region and particularly Qatar.” The leader of Hamas lives in Qatar. So why is President Biden thanking them for anything?
Kirby: Oh jeez, Peter! Let’s take a step back and look at this.
Doocy: This is the group that killed Americans and kidnapped Americans within the last month.
Kirby: Peter, Qatar has been helpful in getting those Americans out. I’m sure that you would agree with me, and everyone at your network would agree, that getting American hostages out is a good thing. And Qatar is a key player in that regard. Qatar has lines of communication with Hamas that almost nobody else has.

Now, I’m not saying we support Hamas. Of course we don’t. They’re a terrorist organization. And Israel has an absolute right to go after them. But Qatar has lines of communication that not everybody else has, and it would be irresponsible – in fact I would expect that you and everyone else in here would be going after me if we weren’t doing everything that we could, and having every possible conversation we can have, to get Americans that are held hostage back home with their families. If we weren’t doing that it would be diplomatic malpractice.

Peter Doocy: "Talking about getting Americans out of Gaza, President Biden said I want to thank our partners in the region and particularly Qatar. The leader of Hamas lives in Qatar. Why is President Biden thanking them for anything?!"

John Kirby: "Oh jeez, Peter!" pic.twitter.com/98xOazLCnn

— Justin Baragona (@justinbaragona) November 2, 2023

First of all, Kirby is mistaken if he believes that Doocy and “everyone at [his] network” agree that freeing American hostages takes priority over their partisan political objectives. As evidenced by their conditional aid to Israel, Republicans are far more fixated on providing aid to their privileged domestic donors than to the victims of foreign wars.

Furthermore, Doocy is exhibiting his famously biased and ignorant perspective on current affairs by failing to grasp that American and Israeli hostages are not going to be released without the help of Qataris who have open lines of communications with Hamas. Trying to bully Qatar into going after Hamas personnel would not advance the goal of freeing Americans. And there will be plenty of time to pursue Hamas after the hostages are safe.

Nevertheless, Doocy persisted with his line of questioning, provoking Kirby to reiterate that “We are working with Qatar to get our people out and to help get aid in. That’s our priority right now.” Kirby also noted that the U.S. helping Israel to go after the terrorists. Which, as previously noted, is something that Republicans in Congress are working against with their conditional aid to Israel. Maybe Doocy should ask Republicans about that.

Fox News Hack Peter Doocy Out Doocys Himself With a Week of Pitifully Puerile Questions

Posted by Mark NC on October 5, 2023 at 12:14 pm. 2 Comments :

The abundance of significantly newsworthy events this week has challenged the media to properly cover them all. They have had to make time for a historic ousting of the Republican House Speaker, Kevin McCarthy, the ongoing battle to fund the government and avoid a devastating shutdown, the trial of Donald Trump for financial fraud, the GOP’s collapsing Biden impeachment inquiry hearings, and much more.

Naturally, the ego-tastic Trump has endeavored to make himself the center of attention regardless of what the topic of any news story might be. Not because he has anything useful to contribute, but in the service of his three obsessions: 1) His fears related to his numerous criminal cases. 2) His compulsion to fleece his flock for more funds. and 3) His desperate efforts to return to the White House so that he can exploit it to do more about #1 and #2.

Meanwhile, Fox News White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, is striving to maintain his role as the leading “Stupid S.O.B.” (as President Biden so fittingly described him) in the White House briefing room. Rather than asking questions about any of the above matters that are actual news stories, Doocy has been demonstrating just how asinine a wannabe “reporter” can be if he puts his deficient mind to it. What follows are some of the questions that Doocy considered to be of critical importance to the American people this week.

October 2: “So did President Biden ever try to get out of a meeting by pulling a fire alarm?”
You have to wonder what Doocy thought the answer to this question might be, or how it would serve the public to hear it.

Peter Doocy enjoys everyone laughing at him.

How embarrassing. ?

October 3: “If President Biden’s policies are helping bring crime down, would he be comfortable with somebody borrowing his Corvette and parking it on the street overnight in southeast D.C.?”
Right! Because where Biden parks his car, and how the local D.C. police department protects the citizens of the community is just what America wants to know more about.

After Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) was carjacked, Fox’s Peter Doocy asks WH Press Sec. Karine Jean-Pierre: “If Pres. Biden’s policies are helping bring crime down, would he be comfortable with somebody borrowing his Corvette and parking it on the street overnight in southeast D.C.?” pic.twitter.com/MRhAecDeGX

October 4: “Is any part of the West Wing just loving the fact that Republicans don’t appear to be able to govern the one part of the government that they actually control.”
Apparently Doocy thinks that the administration sits around chuckling at the notion that the Republican-led House is too dysfunctional to pass any legislation that might help the nation, including the White House’s legislation.

October 4: “There are some new pictures of Commander Biden biting a staffer again. How many times has that dog bitten the Bidens?” […] “Isn’t the president worried about getting sued?”
Once again, Doocy is doggedly digging into the heart of matters that will determine the fate of America.

October 4: “Has anybody in the West Wing heard anybody talking about the possibility of Speaker Trump?”
Because Doocy (and the nation) needs to know if people in the White House are as obsessed with idiotic fantasies that will never happen as he and Fox News are.

Yes, as you can see in the videos, those are all real questions. That’s what the official White House correspondent at Fox News is asking daily in the White House briefing room. And the week is only half over. The answers supplied by Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, demonstrate both her intelligence and patience. A less tolerant press secretary would have booted Doocy from the room, and from the White House press corps, a long time ago.

Fox News White House Hack, Peter Doocy, Wants to Know Why Biden’s Staff ‘Treat Him Like a Baby’

Posted by Mark NC on September 5, 2023 at 1:53 pm. 2 Comments :

The absolute dearth of spreadable pseudo-scandals is hitting Fox News especially hard these days. And President Biden’s near flawless presidency isn’t helping matters any for the propagandists at Fox. The success of the President’s agenda is forcing right-wing media to dig ever deeper into their bag of bullsh*t to find suitable slander.

Fox News, Peter Doocy, Karine Jean-Pierre

The folks at Fox News must be remembering fondly the days when they were able to yammer endlessly about the horror of Biden eating ice cream or riding his bike. And of course, anything remotely involving Hunter Biden and his “laptop from hell.”

The Fox News White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, has always been at the front of the line to disparage Biden with baseless – and frequently bizarre – allegations stuffed into awkwardly loaded questions. On Tuesday he didn’t bother to disguise his bias at all when he aske White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, the following question…

Doocy: President Biden is the oldest president in U.S. History. Why does White House staff treat him like a baby?
Jean-Pierre: No one treats the President of the United States, the commander in chief like a baby. That’s a ridiculous claim.
Doocy: There’s this book that says when staff walked back what sounded like the call for regime change in Russia, the President quote, ‘Rather than owning the failure he fumes to friends about how he was treated like a toddler. Was John Kennedy ever babied like that?’
Jean-Pierre: Look. I’ll say this. There’s gonna always be a range of books about every administration, as you know, that’s gonna have a variety of claims. […] We dispute the context of the excerpt. And it seems to be making the opposite point about how the value of his experience and wisdom resulted in rallying the free world against authoritarianism.

First of all, Jean-Pierre was wrong about no one treating a president like a baby. Trump’s staff did it for four years. They literally had to dumb-down documents that they showed him so that he could understand them. And they even spiced up his Daily Security Briefs (not that he would bother to read or pay attention to them), inserting charts and pictures and his name in order to ensure that he would remain interested.

More to the point, Doocy was referring to the book (that he didn’t bother to identify) “The Last Politician“ by Frank Foer. The book does contain the exchange above, but what Biden was talking about was his staff clarifying his remarks in a way that “creat[ed] the impression that they had cleaned up his mess.” It had nothing to do with policy and was not a blanket complaint about how he was treated. It was about style, not substance, and was a one-off critique.

This is, however, typical of the shoddy and partisan inquisitions engaged in by Doocy and others at Fox News. His record of asking utterly ludicrous questions that are actually thinly disguised accusations speaks for itself. What follows is a brief sampling of some his more humiliating moments…
