Fox News reports: Republican strategist Karl Rove said on “Fox & Friends” Friday that Sen. Bernie Sanders’ town hall on Fox earlier this week convinced him that the presidential candidate could win the Oval Office in 2020. He credited Sanders, who is 77 and from Vermont, for bucking the decision of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair, Tom Perez, to …

“This is a war! The president likes to call it a hoax but this was a conspiracy to overthrow the president of the United States. And this is bad stuff. And, to your point, any other person in the White House would have folded up like a cheap lawn chair amongst the last several presidents. Pastor Robert Jeffress always talks …

Last night White House press secretary Sarah Sanders ran to Fox News after the Mueller report detailed her confessing to having repeatedly lied to the media. Sean Hannity, of course, gave her a sympathetic ear. Newsweek reports: “I guess in the testimony you gave, you had said your FBI — a lot of the FBI people you know were — …

NBC News reports: President Trump on Thursday pushed back against questions about whether he may have obstructed the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, asserting that he could have “fired everyone,” including special counsel Robert Mueller, if he had so chosen. The White House has been taking a victory lap, with Trump earlier saying “No Collusion – No …

The Daily Beast reports: There was another question weighing heavily on the president’s mind: Was Fox News, his favorite organ of conservative media and pro-Trump messaging, being sufficiently subservient to him? “Keep an eye on it,” Trump started telling aides, according to two people with direct knowledge of his directive, in conversations about what was going on behind-the-scenes at Fox, …

The Hill reports: Fox News host Tucker Carlson on his Monday night program said that in 20 years, every fifth grader in the U.S. will believe “9/11 was committed by white supremacists.” Carlson’s remarks came in the context of what he described as “propaganda” from liberals lambasting President Trump for inciting violence. “I swear in 20 years, every fifth grader …

Axios reports: Freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) was mentioned 3,181 times on Fox News and Fox Business during the 6 weeks from Feb. 25 to April 7 — 75 times a day — according to the liberal Media Matters for America. “Not a day went by when she wasn’t spoken about on Fox,” the Associated Press notes. Among the names …

The Washington Post reports: President Trump on Thursday shared an inaccurate graphic on Twitter that significantly overstated his overall job approval rating in a new poll and falsely suggested it was “soaring.” Later Thursday morning, Washington correspondent Blake Burman offered an on-air correction on behalf of Fox Business. “It’s been a quiet start to the day for President Trump, though …

“Nobody likes racists, nobody wants to be called a racist, the left knows that, so they use the word as a cudgel to beat their political opponents into submission and have their way. They have done this so often and for so many years that over time with the word ‘racist’ has lost a lot of power. It is dulled …

“As of tonight we have nearly 175,000 active duty personnel serving overseas. American troops are posted in 158 different countries. For perspective, there are only 195 countries, total, on the entire planet. We’re almost everywhere. Keep in mind there is no world war currently in progress. This is what we’ve signed up for in peacetime. And yet you may notice …

“For those liberals who put all their hopes in being saved by changing demography, well, here’s a news flash: This is the percentage of white non-college graduate voters in a handful of key states. In Iowa, they make up 62 percent of the population. In Michigan, 54 percent of the population, Ohio, 55 percent, Pennsylvania, 51 percent, and Wisconsin, 58 …

“Resentment, anger, division, and alienation. And these Democrats don’t even acknowledge obvious gains, but you know why they won’t? Because to do so would affirm that Trump’s policies are working. Can’t have that. Watching and listening to this Democrat field kowtow to Al Sharpton makes it seem like America didn’t even elect, and then re-elect it’s first black president. But …

The New York Times reports: Rupert Murdoch, the founder of a global media empire that includes Fox News, has said he “never asked a prime minister for anything.” But that empire has given him influence over world affairs in a way few private citizens ever have, granting the Murdoch family enormous sway over not just the United States, but English-speaking …

“I think if you want to set up a single nationwide count so we could have the Palm Beach story nationwide, and you could have the maximum incentive for Democrats to steal the election, and the maximum incentive for Democrats to have illegal immigrants voting, it’s a terrific idea. And I think anybody who believes in having a totally corrupt …

“The auto industry would basically be grinded to a halt in about two weeks. $1.7 billion of services flow back and forth daily, and for the most part a shutdown could lead — a prolonged shutdown between the two countries could lead to a recession in Mexico and the U.S. What the president’s saying is, I will do whatever it …

Last night Fox News host Tucker Carlson went on a bizarre attack on MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, who had the temerity to interview right wing obsession Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Mediaite reports: Carlson said, “Chris Hayes is what every man would be if feminists ever achieved absolute power in this country––apologetic, bespectacled, and deeply, deeply concerned about global warming and the patriarchal systems …

Late yesterday afternoon the Trump administration announced the end of hundreds of millions in annual aid to Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador. The move was immediately condemned as deliberately calculated to worsen the migrant crisis in those nations and at the Mexican border. This morning Trump’s favorite program, Fox & Friends, weighed in with the headline you see above. Many …

“Unless we make an example of the traitorous, treasonous group that accused Donald Trump of being an agent of the Russian government and as they spewed their hate I want to know who the unmasking, who did the leaking and if we don’t have a consequence of the highest level of government are not held responsible for this then it …

“I don’t think the report should be released at all and I’m frankly surprised that so many Republicans think it should be. A lot of Republicans think the investigation was flawed from its inception. Remember, that Strzok was biased, that Papadopoulos was set up, that the dossier was a political hit piece, so if the investigation was flawed from its …

Mediaite reports: Fox News’ Laura Ingraham last night mocked the media’s post-Mueller-investigation coverage, especially Rachel Maddow’s. “You’d feel sorry for these folks if they hadn’t done such damage to the presidency and the country,” she concluded. “But they were exposed as frauds in their coverage of the collusion question and now they’re essentially wishcasting conclusions in the Mueller report.” She …
