Fox Fired Maria Bartiromo Over What She Showed the White House — President Trump Responds
JD Rucker ^ | September 4, 2026 | Jeremiah Shell

"Fox News did not lose Maria Bartiromo in some mysterious “next chapter.” The network fired her. Then it hid behind a thank-you note and hoped nobody would ask why a woman who spent twelve and a half years building Fox Business a real audience vanished from the air after August 9."

The point is that Bartiromo did not simply communicate information to the President something he didn't already know.

But, that Fox News was complicit in the cover-up of the otherwise, blatant snatching-away of American sovereignty!

She should fit nicely in President Trump’s administration somewhere.

At least she was merely fired, like Lou Dobbs, and not murdered like Tim Russert.

“”””At least she was merely fired, like Lou Dobbs, and not murdered like Tim Russert.””””

You can’t expect the hiring and firing policies of different networks to look exactly the same as each other, of course policies will vary.

“ Jason Chaffetz fills Sunday Morning Futures this weekend.”

Whoa! To replace Maria? That’s their bench?

Ok. This was a really bad move.

Can extra helpings of dessert be tried and convicted of murder?

True, it was no heart attack.

“”An autopsy performed on the day of his death determined that his history of coronary artery disease led to a myocardial infarction (heart attack) and ventricular fibrillation with the immediate cause being an occlusive coronary thrombosis in the left anterior descending artery resulting from a ruptured cholesterol plaque”””

They have nobody on their roster who can take her place. I’d love to see her go to NewsMax.

There should be a cable show filled only with reporters who got fired for telling the truth.

I know I’m going to be attacked for this, but I do not care. She received a confidential memo from her company, the company that pays her. Everybody knows what a confidential MEMO is. SHE CHOSE to send it to Trump. If I were her boss, I would’ve fired her too. You just don’t do that in business if she disagreed with it or was shocked by the MEMO, she should’ve quit.

Newsmax? How are they better? Are they admitting 2020 was fraud?

How do they know that she showed this alleged memo to Trump?

Ya. They called Arizona. Then they shut everyone down who mentioned it. Bauer and mccallum were on within days with a big celebration of Biden. Ingraham renewed her contract

Pirro got shoved around. No one has been allowed to speak of it

Gutfeld never mentions it. The Five doesn’t

Then Fox got into …read the article.
