And from Trump&#8217;s perspective, the problem lies anywhere but with him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70602\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Blasts the Republican Party, Whining \u2018They Don\u2019t Fully Grasp How Badly They Are F*ing Up\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Friday morning Fox News sought to cover a voting rights rally in Washington, D.C. that was also honoring the anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington led by Martin Luther King. The rally featured notable advocates of civil liberties including Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rev. Al Sharpton. But Fox&#8217;s coverage had a typically biased slant that highlighted their obsession with a fringe left-wing podcaster&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>FOX NEWS:<\/strong> &#8220;One prominent voice on the far left is noticeably absent. We&#8217;ll talk to former RNC [Republican National Committee] chair Ronna McDaniel about Hasan Piker and his rhetoric forming a deepening Democratic rift into the open.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"embed-x\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here is how Fox is covering the rally marking the 63rd Anniversary of MLK&#39;s March on Washington\u2026 by noting Hasan Piker isn\u2019t there and playing a bunch of clips of people condemning Piker\u2019s comments. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Ckiqtm2U9m\">pic.twitter.com\/Ckiqtm2U9m<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Acyn (@Acyn) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Acyn\/status\/2093403338310311989?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 28, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>First of all, Piker is not a Democrat. He&#8217;s not even a Democratic Socialist. He may have a voice as an Internet influencer\/troll, but he doesn&#8217;t speak for the Democratic Party or its candidates or office holders. So the differences that he has with Democrats are not evidence of any <em>&#8220;rift&#8221;<\/em> within the Party.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, while some Democrats have progressive positions on some issues, they are positions that are broadly popular. They include Medicare for All, making the rich pay their fair share of taxes, standing up for Constitutional law and order, judicial reform, and a national security agenda that affirms our relations with our international allies without leading reckless and illegal wars.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, If Piker was <em>&#8220;noticeably absent&#8221;<\/em> from the D.C. rally it&#8217;s because he wasn&#8217;t invited. The assumption by Fox News and McDaniel that he should have been present is an invention of their own biases. This is a delusional viewpoint that is threaded throughout Fox&#8217;s coverage.<\/p>\n<p>The day before this segment Fox News hosted right-wing hack, Hugh Hewitt, who made many of the same asinine assumptions about Piker. He even called for Democrats to renounce him. Which they have no obligation to do since he isn&#8217;t affiliated with them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-x\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The only ones with a &quot;Hasan Piker problem&quot; are those on Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats don&#39;t have to renounce someone who does not belong to the Democratic Party, or even to the Democratic Socialists of America?<\/p>\n<p>Maybe Republicans should renounce the racists and Nazis in their party. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4B1fM697O3\">https:\/\/t.co\/4B1fM697O3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; News Corpse (@NewsCorpse) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NewsCorpse\/status\/2093053125687210133?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 27, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>Between now and November, we can expect Fox News and the GOP to push more of this nonsense. But asking Democrats to renounce Piker, with whom they are unaffiliated, would be like asking Trump and the GOP to renounce the racist, violent, neo-fascist Proud Boys. Oh wait&#8230; They actually are Republicans and Trump supporters.<\/p>\n<p>What is noticeably absent from Fox News is their acknowledgement that Democrats have already renounced Piker. Even though Fox actually included video of it in their own report. And candidates across the Democratic spectrum &#8211; from progressive Abdul El-Sayed in Minnesota to moderate David Jolly in Florida &#8211; have explicitly distanced themselves from Piker.<\/p>\n<p>So maybe Fox News should tend to their own party&#8217;s problems before setting up lame red herring arguments to attack Democrats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70587\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Begs His MAGA Cult to \u2018Pretend That I\u2019m on the Ballot\u2019 \u2013 And Democrats Concur<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70570\" target=\"_blank\">Fox News is OUTRAGED that Democrats are So Good Looking \u2013 No, REALLY!<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70501\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Mulls Declaring a National Emergency to Rig Elections, Says \u2018Stranger Things Have Happened\u2019<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/newscorpse.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The closer it gets to the midterm elections in November, the more desperation and derangement we are seeing from Donald Trump, the Republican Party, and their propaganda platform Fox News.
