And often their pathetic criticisms are both trivial and false. For example&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=62840\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fox News is Desperately Struggling to Find Dirt on Kamala Harris \u2013 Here is What They Found<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Monday morning the <em>&#8220;Curvy Couch&#8221;<\/em> potatoes of Fox and Friends launched another of their patented disinformation campaigns that are specifically designed to appeal the gullible rubes that comprise the vast majority of their audience. The segment addressed reports that Jill Biden had attended a White House Cabinet meeting.<\/p>\n<p>Unveiling what the hosts &#8211; Steve Doocy, Ainsley Earhardt, and Lawrence Jones &#8211; apparently believe is a bombshell revelation about President Biden and his administration, they engaged in the following exchange&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Doocy:<\/strong> Regarding Jill Biden, maybe she&#8217;s saying that because she&#8217;s running the country.<br \/>\n<strong>Earhardt:<\/strong> Yeah. She was at the cabinet meeting on Friday. She was at the head of the table. Here&#8217;s a picture of her. And I was watching Fox and Friends Weekend and I turn on the TV and I see her at the end of the table and I&#8217;m, like, where is he [President Biden]? Why isn&#8217;t he at this meeting?<br \/>\n<strong>Jones:<\/strong> Miranda Devine <em>[of Rupert Murdoch&#8217;s New York Post]<\/em> writes &#8216;Who exactly is running the country.&#8217; Certainly it appears to be Jill Biden and not Joe Biden.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWhere is he?\u201d Fox News promotes conspiracy theory that Jill Biden ran the recent cabinet meeting, and that President Biden wasn\u2019t there, while showing a clip proving Biden was at the cabinet meeting.

And they forcefully demanded to know where he was and why he wasn&#8217;t there. But if they had bothered to watch the video that was playing while they were talking, they would have seen Biden right there at the table. Apparently that was too much to ask of these alleged journalists.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Fox reported that the First Lady was seated at the head of the table, which they claimed was evidence that she was running, not merely the meeting, but the whole country. However, Biden&#8217;s usual place at such meetings is in the middle of the table, where he sat on this occasion as well. But Fox News was too busy digging for nonexistent dirt to pay any attention to measly things like facts. Even if they are only related to the national security implications of &#8211; seating arrangements?<\/p>\n<p>What Fox neglected to report entirely was why the First Lady was there in the first place. It was because the President invited her <em>&#8220;to give an update on the White House initiative to fundamentally change how we approach and fund women\u2019s health services.&#8221;<\/em> According to the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2024\/09\/20\/remarks-by-president-biden-and-first-lady-jill-biden-before-cabinet-meeting\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">White House transcript<\/a><\/strong> of the event&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We\u2019re grateful that Jill is here today. And here, across previous administrations, first ladies have attended these meetings and on \u2014 for specific reasons.  It\u2019s the first time Jill has joined us.  And it goes to show how important the issue is, what she\u2019s about to speak to, to both of us.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Naturally, Fox News doesn&#8217;t want to inform their viewers that Biden and Harris are delivering tangible benefits for women. Particularly when MAGA Republicans and Donald Trump have such animosity toward them and openly hold them in contempt.<\/p>\n<p>While the GOP is working to deprive women of critical healthcare, Democrats are making progress expanding those services. And the only thing that Fox News can do in response is to air asinine stories about seating arrangements and the President missing a meeting that he was actually at. And this is what they call <em>&#8220;news.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=63044\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">WTF?
