Media Matters has the transcript: KAYLEIGH MCENANY (FOX NEWS HOST): That was actor Harrison Ford preaching at a climate conference just last year, but now the Indiana Jones star is getting called out for his carbon footprint. His private jet has made at least eight trips in the last two months alone. Just last week, Prince Harry was spotted arriving …

“Trump was out of office for a mere 12 months when the issues arose about these particular boxes, it may have been earlier. “Multi millions of pages of Trump administration documents are with the Archives. So these documents likely in and around his office, etcetera, went to Mar-a-Lago. “Now as president, when he made the decision to remove them to …

The New York Times reports: Some of the biggest names at Fox News have been questioned, or are scheduled to be questioned in the coming days, by lawyers representing Dominion Voting Systems in its $1.6 billion defamation suit against the network, as the election technology company presses ahead with a case that First Amendment scholars say is extraordinary in its …

The New York Daily News reports: Enraged that John Fetterman turned down invitations to appear on his Fox News program, right-wing broadcaster Sean Hannity threatened to sue the Democratic Senate candidate during a dizzying Tuesday night rant, where he also complained he was being used as a pawn in Fetterman’s fundraising efforts. “As of now, the Fetterman campaign is failing …

The New York Times reports: Lachlan Murdoch, the chief executive of the Fox Corporation, filed a defamation lawsuit against an Australian news site on Tuesday, a day after the outlet challenged him to make good on his threats to sue over a column that claimed links between the Murdoch family and the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Mr. Murdoch, the son …

The Daily Beast reports: Tucker Carlson sounded just like his good pal and right-wing conspiracy nut Alex Jones on Monday, at one point commenting about chemicals in milk that “turn kids trans.” The Fox host expressed sympathy during his show for an Amish farmer named Amos Miller who has run into legal trouble over food safety issues identified by the …

“Democrats are painting Republican Senate candidates in upcoming elections and midterms as cruel and out of touch. “Well, apparently Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is content to leave them out to dry and fend for themselves. “You don’t hear Schumer complaining about candidate quality in Pennsylvania. How about you get out there, Mitch, and fight for your team? What’s your …

“I mean, Mike Pence is a very nice guy, seems like a nice guy, but he spent four years getting bossed around by Donald Trump like a concubine, as he was bossed around by his donors when he was governor of Indiana. He’s not in a position to lead anything.” “I think he probably has useful years left in him, …

“In all, the EPA alone gets more than $40 billion in this bill, including more than $30 billion for so-called disadvantaged communities. “What are those? Well, they’re not really defined — people who voted for Joe Biden. So, what it really means is the EPA is going to spread more identity politics and race hate. “So really, this is about …

“The administration is coming out and saying, ‘We need to pay teachers more.’ And, by the way, teachers gave $20 million to Democrats and Joe Biden in the 2020 campaign. So this is a payback for teachers. “Listen, I don’t mind paying the good teachers more, but they’re saying teachers make 20% less than people with similar degrees. “But they …

Media Matters has the transcript: TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): But, the truth is there are still questions about the FBI’s behavior on and around January 6th. And given what happened in Michigan, where we know beyond question that the FBI tried to create an act of terror, it’s fair to ask, “What exactly did happen on January 6th?” And why is …

“Being a felon is not a disqualification. So even crimes potentially far more serious than what is being alleged, potential mishandling of classified information, doesn’t stop somebody from seeking the presidency. “If they think that they’re going to somehow make this about Donald Trump and prevent him from running from office, well they obviously have not read something called the …

“In my judgment, President Biden has stepped on every rake in the yard. I don’t mean to be unfair, but it’s been cringeworthy. “He has mismanaged Congress, mismanaged COVID, mismanaged crime, mismanaged the border. mismanaged the Afghanistan, mismanaged the economy, mismanaged inflation, and forfeited America’s energy independence.”  “I don’t think most Americans are persuaded. I don’t think the American people …

Media Matters has the transcript: WILL CAIN (CO-HOST): It’s not truly about declassified materials or classified materials. It’s not even really about the Espionage Act which, by the way, can encompass, and does in the statute, very minor grievances like not giving information over to the National Archives, not that you’re a super-spy with the nuclear codes, but you just …

“These are acts of aggression and hostility aimed at Americans. No American president has ever done this. No American president has ever explicitly declared war on his own population. And yet, for the Biden administration, it’s a near weekly occurrence. “Here’s Joe Biden and his attorney general, Merrick Garland, telling you that white supremacists — in other words, Trump voters, …

“More questions are being raised this morning. Did former President Trump try to sell or share the highly classified material to the Russians or to the Saudis or others? “Or were the documents innocently mishandled and stored because he thought he had a legal right to have them? “And Russia’s state media already is claiming that Russian officials have seen …

“People conflate Trump with people’s overall sense of happiness in the country. Donald Trump’s been a friend of mine for 25 years, and I’m always very open about this on my show. But, you know, we’ll see whether that’s what the country wants. “The country I think is so exhausted, they’re exhausted by the battle, the constant battle, that they …

Mediaite reports: Ainsley Earhardt referenced the DHS memo before noting “the doxxing of these agents, the two agents, yeah, that signed the warrant, they were released — someone leaked them, their names.” Steve Doocy chimed in quickly to note Breitbart published the names, before Earhardt continued, “Doxxing of them trying to find their address so that these people online are …

Mediaite reports: During Fox & Friends, co-host Will Cain invoked comments from former President Richard Nixon that had been misinterpreted and later walked back, to give justification to Donald Trump’s claim that he has the ultimate power to declassify documents, in light of Monday’s raid. Cain claimed that Nixon said “if a president does it, then it is not illegal,” …
