Fox Panel Explodes After Steve Hilton Accuses Colleague Marie Harf of ‘Covering Up the Corruption’
Mediaite ^

Posted on 11/04/2019 1:28:47 PM PST by TigerClaws

Steve Hilton accused his co-host and former John Kerry staffer Marie Harf of covering up alleged corruption in Ukraine from former Vice President Joe Biden.

After talking about impeachment and the “Deep State,” Hilton declared, “Let’s use their term, okay? Let’s use their term, which is ‘resistance.’ Let’s remember that about a year ago, someone wrote an anonymous op-ed saying there is an organized resistance within the bureaucracy to President Trump… That person, on top of all these transcripts, their book is coming out in a couple of weeks. These people in the bureaucracy hate President Trump, they can’t believe he’s the president, they’ve been working against him from day one.”

“You combine that with the Democrats trying to overturn the election from day one and that’s what you have now. That’s why we shouldn’t take it seriously. And further, these people inside the bureaucracy, the other thing they are doing is protecting Joe Biden, because the only real corruption allegation here is against Joe Biden,” Hilton continued. “He was in charge of Ukraine policy, he supervised billions of dollars of aid that went from the U.S. taxpayer to Ukraine. Much of that went to Burisma, a gas company that was paying his son. How much money did Joe Biden channel to his son’s business? That’s the corruption allegation. No one wants to explore that. These people are protecting against that.”

Hilton added: “There’s a further element of corruption that needs to be looked into, and again something that Ukraine should investigate, which is John Kerry’s corruption. He was Secretary of State at the time. He was also involved in channelling money to Ukraine. His former chief of staff was hired by Burisma. Soon after Hunter Biden went on the board, they hired John Kerry’s former chief of staff — while he was Secretary of State — paid him money from Burisma. Could have come from the U.S. taxpayer. That money is circled back to Democratic senators who then write to the administration calling for more money to be sent to Burisma. All of that needs to be investigated.”

“There was no evidence that anything you… I worked at the State Department then,” replied Harf, prompting Hilton to proclaim, “So you’re covering up the corruption, too. You defend it.”

Harf responded, “Are you kidding me? I am on this couch with you talking about news. Please don’t accuse me of covering something up,” to which Hilton shot back, “You are! Because you’re saying there’s no evidence. I’ve just given you the evidence.”

“I was there, and there’s no evidence,” snapped Harf.

“But the money went from the U.S. taxpayer to Burisma,” argued Hilton.

“Its about time.”

Damn straight. Why do we have to hear the truth spoken by a guy from overseas?
He’s the only one allowed or willing to tell the truth on Fox?

what many keep forgetting (many on OUR side) is that President Bush was Director of the CIA.

Who is president Trump having trouble with? the deep state! So BOTH Republican and Democrats within the deep state have got it out for Trump.

NONE of this is happening by chance.

Harf is one of the beloved liberals at Fox, (beloved by Fox management).

Steve Hilton’s days at Fox are numbered.

Why Fox ever let her back is beyond me. She really is a piece of s....I mean work.

Here's a good guess why.

I’ve noticed British papers report stuff you won’t see here in the U.S. as well... about U.S. politics. Crazy.

“Why do we have to hear the truth spoken by a guy from overseas?”

I wholeheartedly agree! It’s because the US Media is the Goebbles arm of the RAT party. Anything fed to us from them is either made up or totally false, or both.

(BTW, I think Hilton just became a naturalized citizen of the U.S., IIRC.)

She pulled herself into the story...and then complains that she now has to defend it? oops.

She was Hillary’s spokes-stooge and a complete moron. She has a clueless dismissive Valley Girl tone I found ridiculous when she was doing pressers years ago for Hillary.

Hilton got out a ton of information in his little rant — more information I’ve seen on Fox in weeks.

Dan Bongino is no match for Harf either. He would wipe the floor with her and make her cry like a little girl and then she would storm off the stage.
