Media Matters has the transcript: HARRIS FAULKNER (ANCHOR): I had forgotten how much they had thrown at him until just this moment, I mean I hadn’t been focused on that in the last 10 days or so. But when you look at it stacked like that, and add onto that Letitia James, the attorney general of New York, who said …

“I’ve had elections that I really wanted my side to win, that they lost, and you know what, Stephen A.? I go on and I plough through and I do my job. There’s not gonna be retribution. None of the hosts of The View are gonna be taken off– I used to go on that show. They wouldn’t even allow– …

“Glenn Greenwald was on my show and he said a lot of his friends in the mainstream media say that they think the mainstream media is pro-Trump, they think the network brass and producers, writers, they think they are actually biased in favor of Trump. These are the type of people we’re dealing with. “So when Trump says we will …

“Do you know what a furry is? Did you see that episode of Entourage years ago? If not, Google it because the president might be one. At his final White House trick-or-treat event last night — trick-or-treat event last night, Joe walked out with his wife, Dr. Jill, who for some reason was dressed completely as a panda bear. She’s …

“I don’t believe these fake stories that you’re saying on television about these guys, that they say that they voted for Trump and now they’re voting for Harris because of their daughters. ‘That is such a lie, Harold. I know you and I’ve met your friends and none of your friends strike me as that lame. And if I found …

The Associated Press reports: Russian actors were behind a widely circulated video falsely depicting mail-in ballots for Donald Trump being destroyed in Pennsylvania, U.S. officials confirmed on Friday.

“This is hate speech now. I mean, you are quoting antifa, which the ‘fa’ stands for fascism. So now are these just the glorified, more better paid members of antifa on the left? The vice president, wouldn’t she want to separate herself from that? “And by the way, they were a cause of a lot of the rioting that went, …

“She’s running for president of the wrong country. She should be running for Nicaragua, Venezuela, Cuba where they’re very good at price controls. The people are very thin there. Have you noticed? They don’t have a weight problem or anything of the sort. The people starve. And if we leave it to Kamala Harris who hasn’t spent 15 seconds in …

“I think this is a very reasonable proposal. Take their medals away. These treacherous guys, they are hideous, all of them, and many many more. The culture of deception, these political animals. They’re supposed to be fighting men. They’re not. They’re careerists, and they’re out for a buck. “And, well, number one, these are not Donald Trump’s generals. I hate …

CNN reports: Trump was seen taking questions and making small talk with Black and Hispanic barbershop customers and workers, some of whom were wearing “Make Barbers Great Again” shirts. The visit was part of “Fox & Friends” co-host Lawrence Jones’ ongoing barbershop interview series. But the version of the visit shown on television was, to borrow a hairstyle metaphor, a …

“After Trump survived two assassination attempts, Democrats are calling him Hitler, saying it’s time to slit throats. So it means it’s time for ‘new hoax alert.’ The Las Vegas Hoax Chef, Jeffrey Goldberg at The Atlantic, has cooked up a doozy, says Trump admired Hitler. “There’s no recordings of this and everyone says it’s baloney, but the VP who swallows …

“So if your generals, who are your chief of staff and your secretary of defense, are not doing what you say on an everyday basis, I can see him going, ‘I love generals that listened. That would be great.’ “I can absolutely see him go, ‘It’d be great to have German generals that actually do what we ask them to …

“Donald Trump can’t archly refer to the locker room situation of golf legend like Arnold Palmer? What Donald Trump did was positively elegant. He said it without saying it. That’s elegance, actually. That’s — that’s class. There’s Obama, you see what he did, right with the thing? That’s childish. What Donald Trump did — implication, letting the audience get the …

Mediaite reports: Elon Musk received multiple fact-checks on his own social media platform Tuesday after he shared a report that was so overtly doctored that Community Notes got involved. The X owner shared a tweet from a relatively small account that purported to be a screenshot from The Atlantic‘s Jeffrey Goldberg. The fake story was headlined, “TRUMP IS LITERALLY HITLER” …

Fox News is just shamelessly lying: A Pennsylvania mom who was served by former President Trump at McDonald’s discussed the one request she asked of the former president when he surprised her at the drive-thru window on Sunday. Trump cooked and served french fries to customers at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania, while accusing his 2024 opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, …

“The only thing Kamala has in the bag is a bottle of Pinot Grigio. The race is over, but the integrity of the election is still in question. I’m extremely confused by the polls, right? They say– everybody says, ‘Look at these polls.’ “But the internal polls are different, and it’s like, okay, if the internal polls are better, why …

“Now, it is a little bit of an outlier, our Fox News poll still shows Kamala Harris ahead, albeit by a much smaller margin than Democrats won in the last cycle. So this is President Trump saying, ‘Come to me. Trust me on immigration.’ “Latinos support President Trump at our Fox poll, plus 15. They trust him on the issue. …

“I bring this up because Kamala had a birthday yesterday. She is now 60 years old. Kamala Harris, 60 years old. Happy birthday. Whatever. But let’s face it, she is not exactly a baby, right? This is no spring chicken. “You’re a senior citizen now, 60 years old. She’s not that young anymore. She’s older than the average president. I …

“Donald Trump respects the taste of the American people, Kamala Harris doesn’t. She says she knows better. ‘Drive this car, don’t watch this show, you’re racist if you like borders.’ She thinks Trump’s crazy for listening to music at a rally. Kamala’s no fun, is she? Maybe she used to be, but not anymore. They want to throw Trump in …

The Daily Beast reports: Fox News‘s digital story on the rally made no mention of Trump’s genitalia-laced remarks in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, instead characterizing the Palmer comments as “a tribute to his late friend and PGA golf legend.” As a result, it left out the most incendiary of the former president’s comments: “This man was strong and tough. And I refused …
