Wow! Ben Domenech humiliates Chris Wallace on air for his Biden speech puffery
American Thinker ^ | 1 May, 2021 | Thomas Lifson

I confess that like most Americans, I had no interest in watching Joe Biden's non–State of the Union address to a mostly empty House chamber hosting a joint session of Congress. That's why I missed a golden moment during the commentary afterward on Fox News Channel, one that surely stands as what the progressives like to call a "Profile in Courage."

You may have noticed that in recent weeks, FNC has been trying out various personalities from its stable of commentators as hosts of Fox News Primetime that airs in the 7 P.M. Eastern timeslot, the lead-in to Tucker Carlson's program, its (and cable news's) ratings leader. I presume that the personality who does what the executives deem the best job, or maybe gets the highest ratings, or the highest Q Score, will be rewarded with hosting duties on a regular basis. This would be a Very Big Deal for the person snagging the honor. Last week, the host of the program was Ben Domenech, co-founder of The Federalist.

With a potential plum like that a possibility, Domenech deserves a lot of credit for responding to Chris Wallace's praise for Biden's speech the way he did. I don't know why FNC regards Wallace so highly, but he does host Fox News Sunday and virtually always serves as a commentator after major political events. Somebody up there (on the executive floors of FNC) likes him.

Watch the 2-minute video embedded below while you can. It is quite obviously an unauthorized recording of the segment, shot by a camera recording a TV screen, and therefore subject to being pulled down for copyright reasons.

He thinks a lot like her, he was on the National Review’s “Against Trump” cover.

That and his willingness to marry a fat, ugly, shrill RINO carrying Juan McCain's genes are all that I need to know about him. Thanks for the heads-up.

Ben “The Voice” Domenech was great last week hosting the pre-Tucker show on Fox News. He is a smart cookie and tells it like it is, with authority. I bet we’ll see a lot more of him.

Wallace was trying HARD to sugar coat the Liberals’ ‘institutionalized theft’, so all the dummies out there (people wo don’t ALREADY know it), can see that we are being conned, cheated, exploited and HAD!

Yup...exploiting people who “W O R K” is a very popular and successful Communist strategy.

You are right. That was a pathetic display by Wallace and a good reminder of the position of those who run Fox.

Called him everything but a white man. Glorious.

But what else could Ben have done? You could have substituted what blab Chrissy said with, "Fuck my shit up.", and Ben simply obliged.

Chris Wallace is like Frank Burns.

Frank Burns:
I don't have to take this kind of abuse!

Hawkeye:
Oh yes you do, Frank. You invite abuse. It would be impolite not to accept it.

I realized Fox wasn’t worth watching on election night and haven’t been back since.
