Sean Hannity’s call for the Senate Judiciary Committee to give Brett Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasley Ford additional time to decide whether or not to appear suggests the Fox host has at least a shred of decency. Or maybe he just made a cold political calculation.

Fasten your seatbelts: The New York Times just gave Donald Trump the get-out-of-jail-free card he’s been longing for via an anonymously sourced report that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein once proposed to wiretap Trump in order to invoke the 25th Amendment.

Tucker Carlson’s inner white nationalist was so triggered by a Congressman’s suggestion that white, male senators may not be the best judge of Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations that Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her, he once again irresponsibly raised the specter of civil war.

Last night, Tucker Carlson continued exploiting sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh to score cheap political shots, this time by feigning concern for the safety of accuser Christine Blasey Ford - and blaming Democrats for death threats against her.

In the wake of Donald Trump’s disgusting, narcissistic comments about Puerto Rican deaths as a result of Hurricane Maria, Trump made a rehab visit yesterday to areas of North Carolina hit hard by Hurricane Florence – and Fox News was so happy to help it was hard to know if they were reading from a White House press release or just sounding like one.

Leave it to Tucker Carlson to avoid discussing Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations against Brett Kavanaugh like a grownup and instead playing the most divisive and dishonest card he can pull out of his misogynistic deck.

Fox guest Melissa Armo seems to think it’s not fair for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh to be scrutinized for an attempted rape allegation when he was in high school because everybody has something like that in their teenage history.

Somehow, Fox News’ “chief intelligence correspondent” Catherine Herridge not only failed to report the corrupt, banana-Republican strategy behind Donald Trump’s call for the declassification of Russia investigation material, she also presented it, just as Trump dishonestly did, as a move in favor of transparency.

Laura Ingraham was in such a snit over an accusation that Brett Kavanaugh tried to rape a young woman when they were both in high school that she trotted out Clinton accuser Juanita Broaddrick for a round of whataboutism. Unfortunately for Ingraham, Broaddrick completely disproved one of Ingraham’s big attack points.

While Fox News signals to Republicans to treat Christine Blasey Ford with respect and to hear out her accusations of sexual assault against Brett Kavanaugh, there’s also a clear message that the GOP should go after Democrats instead.
