Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) was a nauseating vision of phony-baloney concern for Americans as he exploited Fox News’ weaponization and distortion of the classified documents found in Joe Biden’s old office to further GOP political goals – and the heck with truth or working on behalf of Americans' welfare.

It was entirely predictable that Kremlin-hero and Bolsonaro fan Tucker Carlson turned the violent, right-wing mob that stormed Brazil’s capital Sunday into heroes.

Apparently, so long as Kari Lake's and maybe other Big Lies about our elections are not likely to cause a lawsuit, Fox News is just fine allowing Maria Bartiromo and possibly anyone else at the network promoting them.

Last year, CJ Pearson, a conservative student at the University of Alabama, appeared on Fox & Friends where he whined about liberal policies at UC Berkeley. CJ began 2023 on Fox & Friends with another whine about how “forced fed” liberal “indoctrination” forced him to leave school. But not to worry – Pearson found a home at Prager University, definitely not “woke” and definitely not a school!

Coup-plotting extremist Rep. Scott Perry didn’t have the guts to reveal that he and his newly McCarthy-empowered Freedom Caucus colleagues plan to hold the federal government hostage in order to slash your Social Security, Medicare and more.

How long will McCarthy last as speaker? What will the “Freedom Caucus” insurrectionists actually do with their oversized power? How much destruction will they wreak on our country? How much damage will Republicans do to themselves? Share your thoughts after the jump.

In a contentious interview, Sean Hannity tried but failed to get Rep. Lauren Boebert to stop blocking Rep. Kevin McCarthy from becoming House speaker.

I suspect Rupert Murdoch and/or Donald Trump have given Fox News talking heads their marching orders to support Kevin McCarthy for speaker, denounce the disarray and never mind that Fox did a lot to create it.

Not even Fox & Friends could sugar coat the Republican disarray over choosing a House speaker.

Sure, the Democrats botched their campaign by not defeating Republican fraud George Santos in the midterms but Fox News Sunday gave a complete pass to the Republicans who let him run as a member of their party and the Republicans who are about to seat him as a member of their caucus in the House of Representatives.
