Fox News Loses Control on Air As Trump’s War Backfires
3/4/202617 mincomplete
0:00State regime media, which calls itself Fox News, was collapsing on air after Donald Trump's
0:05disastrous war has turned the entire country against Donald Trump.
0:10Trump is plummeting in the polls.
0:12His latest YouGov poll was the lowest of the entire time he's been in president.
0:18It's quickly becoming the lowest in presidential history.
0:21Let me show you what they're doing on state regime media right now.
0:24You've got Lindsey Graham as a guest saying, who cares whether or not America was
0:31going to be imminently in danger by Iran?
0:34That's stupid. We got to do what we want to do no matter what.
0:37Here, play this clip. America is a imminent threat, and it doesn't have to be
0:41imminent to me because you don't want it to be imminent.
0:45Right. The whole idea is for it not to be imminent, dumbass.
0:48You want to prevent it from being imminent.
0:50Senator, let me ask you this, because I find it I'm putting this in context,
0:54which I know you always.
0:55Then you have Laura Ingraham trying to push the propaganda into high gear for Donald
1:01Trump. And she's like, the real debate here isn't between Trump and his base because
1:06Trump's base is turning against him.
1:08She goes, are you for good or are you for evil?
1:11It's just that simple. Here, play this clip.
1:14Just a complete fraud. I'm sorry.
1:16The real debate here, and you saw it in his comments, is not between the
1:20interventionists and the isolationists or even between Trump and some elements of his base.
1:25The real debate, the real conflict here is between those who believe America is good
1:30and those who believe fundamentally America is corrupt and evil.
1:34Because if you believe the latter, like sadly, most Democrats, the media, the academia do,
1:40you believe that the U .S.
1:41may not. Borough Talks is the Borough Market podcast with me, Julia Crouch.
1:47Join us as we sit down with the chefs and traders influencing how we eat

1:55Follow on Spotify and join us for conversations worth savoring.
2:01Use its military unless we are advancing international interests and internationally approved.
2:09But if you believe America is special, that she's worth saving, you believe that our
2:14military exists to keep the American people safe and our interests abroad secure, even if
2:20the world will criticize us down the road.
2:23And then Jesse Waters creates this like weird cosplay fantasy situation.
2:30And he's like, this is checkmate Donald Trump.
2:33We did it. Mission accomplished.
2:35Russia and China, they're controlled by the United States.
2:39Look how powerful we are.
2:40Like while everything's falling apart.
2:42This is what he's saying.
2:43Play this clip. Now, they constantly interrupt the free flow of oil through the straight.
2:50It jacks up prices. It jacks up premiums.
2:53It boosts inflation. And China buys all the cheap sanctioned oil.
2:58That's not going to happen anymore because what we've done here is now with Venezuela
3:03and Iran, we've basically tipped over two petro dictatorships, both proxies of Russia and Iran.
3:10It weakens both of those countries.
3:12And we now control almost the entire world oil market.
3:17And we've kicked out Russia and China from the Middle East, an oil rich region,
3:22right in the middle of the world trade from Asia to Europe.
3:26That's where all the goods and energy flows.
3:29So if this is a successful mission, this is what you call checkmate.
3:36And it's interesting that you mentioned.
3:37Oh, and then Jesse Waters continues to say the weirdest stuff about Hillary Clinton.
3:42Play this clip. A source told The Post Hillary's team demanded beauty lighting for the
3:48deposition and kept moving the camera to get the best angle.
3:52Maybe that's why she lost it when a congresswoman leaked a pick.
3:56Then state regime media brings on guests like MAGA Republican Senator Tom Cotton, who reiterates
4:02that the reason the United States is now at war with Iran is because Israel
4:06told us to. Here, play this clip right here.
4:08And second, Secretary Rubio addressed this point yesterday.

4:40After our Gang of Eight briefing, Israel faced an existential risk, and they were prepared
4:47to strike Iran alone. If that happened, Iran was very likely to target our troops.
4:54That may address the question of why now?
4:56Why not two weeks ago?
4:57Why not two months from now?
4:59The president, though, did not want to put our troops in harm's way.
5:03The more fundamental question, though, is why?
5:06Why did we have to carry out this operation against Iran?
5:09And as I said, that's because they had have a vast missile arsenal that far
5:14exceeds our combined missile defenses and it gets worse every single month and that is
5:18an unacceptable threat to the united states so sanders people have to i mean you
5:21hear him say it for yourself they bring on donald trump's ambassador uh to the
5:26united nations mike waltz who was previously the national security advisor but was moved to
5:31the un ambassador position after he leaked all those messages on signal chat and he
5:37goes this is precisely what 77 million americans voted for play this clip and here's
5:43the thing that 77 million americans voted for they voted for a president who keeps
5:49to his word who keeps to red lines uh and doesn't get taken advantage of
5:54with bad deals like obama did and like biden did that's what america voted for
6:00and that's what they're getting in uh in president trump and then jesse waters is
6:05like you know what gas prices are going up and this may be bad right
6:09now but just stick with the plan and things will be good in the future
6:13here play this clip it's hard when you don't have any weapons and you live
6:16in a police state so trump will try to shape what happens on the ground
6:20from the carriers and i'm sure the cia is going to be passing a lot
6:23of cash around how does this affect the american people well the market opened lower
6:28and then it snapped back and closed about flat oil prices are up gas prices
6:33at the pump they're going to jump and mortgage rates are already taking up so
6:37in the short term you're going to see a little inflation but if it's a
6:41successful operation prices are going to go way way down and the stock market is
6:46going to rip russia is not going to have a supply of drones that they're
6:51using to just decimate ukraine so it's going to push them towards peace and the
6:55chinese aren't going to be able to suck up all that cheap sanctioned iranian oil
6:59and we'll have full control over the oil rich middle east and then we can
7:04pivot to the pacific and stare down beijing but until then you just pray for
7:08the boys you pray for the president and hope everything goes well and you'll then
7:14you have fox hosts basically reiterating that and saying so what if gas goes up
7:2024 cents we're going to get those evils that are lurking away and it's all
7:26worth it in the long run here play this clip that's why it's it kills
7:31me to listen to him you know he just inserted himself in foreign policies and
7:36and international geopolitics in germany you know at flaunting and advocating for his potential 2028
7:42run and then comes back and has the nerve to say that when his policies
7:46have absolutely had such an impact on living in california in so many different ways
7:50of cost everyone has fled and by the way if he even knew how to
7:54had a slight understanding of what was going on in the region i would say
7:58let's pretend what he said was accurate and and it's additional 24 cents i will
8:02gladly pay that to be safe from all of the evils that were lurking there
8:07latently while he gets to comb his hair and go to french laundry so i
8:11see him as a joke and i'm not quite sure why he is clearly surrounded
8:15by yes people who are not saying to him hey governor i think you should
8:18sit this one out this is for the adults all right i want to ask
8:21you something what's the most ridiculous subscription you've ever found buried in your bank statement

9:31-o -u -c -h then you have this fox host talk about how donald trump
9:37is uh is definitely meeting the moment and when it comes to the uh service
9:43members who were killed trump has taken it with the gravitas it deserves the gravitas
9:49it deserves you mean when donald trump was bragging about the ballroom or pointing to
9:54people in the audience and saying that they look young and hot and they have
9:57good genes or when donald trump said that his dad fred was born in germany
10:03when his dad was born in new york city but go ahead go talk about
10:06it play this um being a loved one of someone who has deployed under biden
10:11and deployed under president trump there's a real difference in that stress level a phenomenal
10:17delta between the two and this is a president who understands the stewardship of our
10:23greatest treasure which is our brave men and women in uniform and in the shadows
10:26and does not take the loss of those six american lives lightly he takes it
10:31with a gravitas that it deserves and i find it despicable that for example behind
10:35schumer we saw senator kane called it an invasion of iran then they I have
10:39this host called Tyrus, and this host called Tyrus says, you know we're never gonna
10:45get a fair shake from mainstream media.
10:48You know what? Like, we're not gonna let anybody bully us.
10:52Here, play this clip. Well, a couple of things.
10:55First of all, we're not gonna get a fair shake from mainstream media.
11:00Here is we had this major event happen, and the question was, did Israel force
11:05your hand to launch these strikes?
11:07So they can't even respect him just to get an answer.
11:10You leave your issues with the orange dragon out to ask a question for the
11:15American people. I don't think anyone was interested, did Israel bully you into, like, you're
11:20just trying to, always taking a shot at his manhood, always trying to attack him
11:24to get him there. And I was very excited to see that he did not
11:27jump into it. He just answered them very calm.
11:29He's very tempered now. And the thing is, is like - Okay, first off, all
11:34mainstream media corporate news is owned by right -wing oligarchs right now.
11:38Like, what the hell are you talking about?
11:39This was a funny moment though, where you had the Fox host talking to General
11:44Jack Keene, and the Fox host, Will Kane is like, I just want to let
11:48you know, I respect you.
11:50I respect you a lot.
11:51I like what you do.
11:52And I think I'm not going to say I'm against this war.
11:56I'm not going to say I'm for the war.
11:58And then you'll see that the guest is like, can you just shut up and
12:01ask me the question already?
12:02Here, let's play this clip.
12:04Well, it's not 100 % clear to me, General.
12:07And that's not to suggest that I don't support 100 % what is happening, nor
12:11that I 100 % offer my support.
12:13I just think I want to ask a couple of critical questions.
12:15And I hope you know how much respect I have for your service.
12:18And I think it goes without saying to anybody watching how much respect I have
12:21for the men making this decision.
12:22You don't have to patronize me.
12:23Just ask the question. Go ahead.
12:26Come on, ask it. To be clear, General, I'm not patronizing you.
12:30I'm trying to have a very serious conversation in front of the American people.
12:34The men making these decisions have my utmost respect.
12:36This is less about you and everybody making these decisions.
12:39And this is about the American people understanding the investment that lies before them.
12:43But what I did find fascinating is that there were some Fox hosts that were
12:47like, enough already. I mean, even Caroline Sunshine, who's a Donald Trump sycophant.
12:52She's like, look, I've worked for Donald Trump.
12:54I've been with him for a long time.
12:57And I don't know what the hell this is about.
12:59Here, play this clip. But again, if I can, just read this quote from the
13:03chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff today at his press conference.
13:05He said, this is not a single overnight operation.
13:07The military objectives we've been tasked with will take some time to achieve.
13:10And in some cases will be difficult and gritty work.
13:13We expect to take additional losses.
13:15We will work to minimize US losses.
13:17But this is a major combat operation.
13:19I voted for President Trump and I worked for President Trump because I didn't want
13:22to hear statements like that from my government, again, regarding American involvement in the Middle
13:26East. And I just think that's important to be clear about.
13:29More from Caroline Sunshine here, so you can see what she had to say.
13:33Let's play this clip. What do you think about that?
13:35And the real question also is, are any of those objectives in the direct national
13:40interest of the United States and of the American people?
13:43Or is this going to become another regime change war that the American people rejected
13:47and did not vote for?
13:48If they wanted that, they would not have voted for Donald Trump as many times
13:52as they have and put him in the Oval Office.
13:55Iran is a country that is four times the size of Afghanistan.
13:58It has a decentralized fighting force that is much more complex and widespread than Afghanistan.
14:04And I think the administration going forward needs to be very clear with the American
14:08people about what its objectives and timelines are.
14:10Six months ago, the American people were told that we used B -2 bunker buster
14:15bombs to completely obliterate and destroy Iran's nuclear program.
14:20And anybody that said otherwise was fake news.
14:23Now we've been told that we've somehow, in those six months, they were able to
14:27restart the program. Now we're told that we've completely destroyed it again.
14:33We're told that we've taken out, you know, 49 leaders who were on the chessboard
14:37to replace the Ayatollah. And the president has been very clear saying to the people
14:41of Iran, I intervened and now I'm leaving it to you.
14:45So my question then to the administration, and I think it's the question that a
14:49lot of American people certainly under 35 have, is if all of that has been
14:53done, why are we still there?
14:54Because we've lost six U .S.
14:56service members at our bases in the Middle East.
14:58And I don't think the American people are going to have a very high tolerance
15:02for losing more U .S.
15:04soldiers unless those objectives are very clear and those timelines are very clear.
15:07And it's made clear how it is in the direct interest of the American people.
15:11You have. Then you had Dana Perino over on state regime media.
15:14And Dana Perino, uh, was saying, uh, you know, could you just imagine how bad
15:20things would be if Kamala was in charge?
15:23Just imagine if we had Kamala in charge.
15:25Here, play this clip. Anything about what they would do to stop it.
15:28And I do believe that the whole world might rest a little bit easier, knowing
15:33that Kamala Harris is not making these negotiations.
15:36If you think about the story that we did last week, that said that the
15:39issue of Gaza really hurt her, right?
15:41So you can imagine that the Hamas caucus would have talked her out of something
15:46like this type of action.
15:48And that's also what she just displayed on the street corner.
15:50And so you see right now, just state regime media, just totally, totally falling apart
15:57right now. Um, I'll just show you this other clip right here.
15:59Let's play it. They cannot have a nuclear weapon.
16:02They have to give up their long range ballistic missiles.
16:05They cannot continue to spot for terrorism all over the world as what many administrations
16:11have put up with as the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism.
16:14And they can't have these naval capabilities that can instantly shut off 20 % of
16:20the world's energy supply. Those are the objectives.
16:23And God bless our United States military that are achieving those objectives right now as
16:28we speak. Like you said, in many ways, we've already won.
16:32Well, there you have it.
16:33Let me know what y 'all think.
