Mediaite reports: Fox Business host Stuart Varney went to the mat to defend President Donald Trump from criticism from primary challenger Joe Walsh, even insisting Trump has never once lied. “When I get an answer like I know, Stuart Varney knows the president lies, I’m going to push back. Because that’s nonsense. You know it’s nonsense. Don’t try to bring …

Every day they just get bolder and bolder. Fox News host Jeanine Pirro repeated a white supremacist conspiracy theory on Thursday by claiming that Democrats are waging a vast “plot” to “replace American citizens with illegals.” Pirro promoted the so-called “great replacement theory” during a Thursday radio appearance with Fox host Todd Starnes, who recently compared Hispanic immigrants to “Nazi” …

“In the aftermaths of the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, the country scrambled, justifiably, to understand what motivated the killers. Ideology seemed like an obvious reason and we picked that apart at some length. But it could it just be part of the answer? “A toxicology report on the Dayton shooter, for example, revealed that he had several …

Mediaite reports: President Donald Trump took issue with what he sees as Fox News “heavily promoting the Democrats” via a tweet sent Wednesday morning. The president’s ire appears to have triggered by DNC Communications Director Xochitl Hinojosa appearing on America’s Newsroom to speak with Fox’s Sandra Smith in the 9 am hour. Trump has recently ratcheted up attacks on the …

Splinter News reports: “He would want to do it there anyway, whether he owns it or not,” Fox & Friends couch-occupier Brian Kilmeade insisted on Tuesday, echoing the president’s own aw-shucks excuses for foisting his personal property onto other world leaders. “It’s just the perfect site!” “Trump Tower is not available,” Kilmeade laughingly noted a few moments later. “It would …

Gun cultists are never-ending with the grifting. Fox Nation personality Tomi Lahren has announced a new athleisure line that one would expect to be perfect for people looking to break a sweat at the gym with a loaded gun stuffed into their pants. The FREEDOM By Tomi Lahren collection is available for purchase at Alexo Athletica, which bills itself as …

“I think the framers of the Constitution did not mean for birthright citizenship for those who are in the country illegally. I don’t think they want to reward illegal behavior. I’ve been in this business for three decades. And I tell you, one of the first things a lot of these illegal aliens do when they get here is have …

Media Matters reports: Hugo Balta, president of The National Association of Hispanic Journalists, released a statement Thursday, declaring that it was rescinding the invitation for Fox News to cosponsor the organization’s presence at the upcoming Excellence In Journalism conference in San Antonio, TX — and returning Fox’s check for $16,666 as part of the deal. The reason: continued commentary on …

And now for the day’s least surprising news: Former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is joining Fox News as a contributor, the network announced Thursday.

“They could be change agents for good if they were pluralist Muslims, if they knew what was in the Koran, where we recognize Jews, where we recognize the sanctity of Moses, the holiness of the Torah — but they’re not. They are using Islamist tactics to invert reality. “What they are seeking — they have a grotesque Holocaust envy, and …

“Let’s not forget the unprecedented level of unmasking and leaking raw intelligence and abuse of surveillance powers. How did Samantha Power ever ask the unmask — what is it, a UN ambassador. Why is she unmasking 300 Americans in 2016? Oh, she claims she didn’t. “Okay, well who did then? And by the way now that the question is coming …

Matt Gertz reports at Media Matters: Trump is notoriously averse to reading anything but cable news chyrons. Asked about his book-reading habits in 2016, he said, “I read passages. I read — I read areas, I read chapters. I just — I don’t have the time.” He then reeled off a list of Fox hosts whose programs he watches instead. …

“This medical examiner took extra time from Saturday to Friday to put the facts together to determine the manner of death. How do you determine the manner of death when there are no cameras, no cellmates, guard are sleeping, some of them are even refusing to cooperate. Did that medical examiner have a total picture? After six days they take …

“The thing about land is that God isn’t making any more of it, so it’s usually a good investment. Real estate has paid off well for the United States – the Louisiana Purchase, the annexation of Texas, California, obviously Alaska. Another point that Secretary of State Pompeo pointed out is that if the direst warnings about global warming do come …

Mediaite reports: Andrew McCarthy directly implicated former President Barack Obama in what he views as a conspiratorial counter-intelligence effort designed to take down President Donald Trump Thursday morning.

“I do believe that we have been invaded. That we have been invaded by a horde, a rampaging horde, of illegal aliens. This has been a slow-moving invasion. That’s a fair description of what we have suffered here in this country. Because the nation has suffered. “We have spent billions and billions of our tax dollars taking care of the …

“Look, we want people to come here, but they need to follow the rules, and they need to come here legally. We have millions, millions here illegally. Democrats have encouraged many more to come here through sanctuary cities. “And I believe that any court looking at the new regulations — or added regulations that the president has added — there …

“The left says it all the time. This is what they believe. It is their religion. They want to fight the weather. The rest of us want to deal with real threats that want to take away our freedoms. And — think about four years ago. What was that, 2015? ISIS was still, you know, this was during Obama’s term. …

Media Matters reports: Despite leaving on an abrupt and suspiciously timed vacation — a commonly used tactic by Fox to deter advertisers from dropping shows after a host says something particularly egregious — Tucker Carlson has continued to lose advertisers. SteinMart, HelloFresh, and Nestle have all severed ties with Tucker Carlson Tonight, and the fast food chain Long John Silver’s …

From the Hollywood Reporter: One major brand that advertised on Wednesday night’s show, the meal kit service HelloFresh, said the spot “was placed through a remnant inventory advertising purchase.” A spokesperson told The Hollywood Reporter that “this remainder buy is now complete and the ad is no longer running.” Nestlé, which has advertised the Proactiv skin care product on Carlson’s …
