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.

“”Hard is UNWATCHABLE ! I usually watch. But NOt when BARF or SCREECHING voice TarNOlove are ON! YUK””

Those are two dames I absolutely will not tolerate when they’re on. I’ve said over and over I will break my neck to get to the remote if I hear Tarlov’s voice or see Harf’s face. I am so disgusted that FOX can’t understand that people absolutely do not want anything to do with either of them or ANY of the other shrill, nasaly, whiney voices.

Was this on his show last night? I was reading and didn’t turn his show on last night..I like him. I believe he is fearless...

So what if Harf was at the State Department at the time? That’s kind of like, “DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?” I’m sure she wasn’t privy to each and every facet of Biden’s movements or Kerry’s...her henchwoman Psaki traveled with Kerry but I don’t know about Harf. There’s little detail on her comings and going so I’m not even sure if she was still there when Kerry took over. The Navy guy Kirby beat her out of a couple of federal jobs...as spokesman/woman of various departments.

I was so disgusted to see that she’s returned to FOX and is on Outnumbered TOO OFTEN for my taste - if either of those women (Harf and Tarlov) are on, the TV goes off.

So glad someone here agrees with me - I’ve been harping about those voices for a long time!

‘Her looks make men go “HARF! HARF!” When she walks on by.’

I highly doubt that the average red blooded American man would be gagging if Ms Harf walked by him on the sidewalk...

Hilton’s comment was perhaps too nuanced for Harf.

The You-Tube video shows it was “Outnumbered” this morning. As it got personal, host Harris Faulkner quickly went to pencil-head Schiff who was making a statement.

Please let us know if Hilton is fired or suspended like Judge Jeanine was.

You mean other than Ryan being a member in good standing of the GOPe which makes him by definition a Never Trumper/Anti-Reaganite/conservative hater of the highest order?

I can’t believe total losers like Ryan and Romney keep being recirculated. They should go off somewhere & sell cars (apologies to all car salesman).

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

Good, I’m glad to hear that news and hoped that was the case. The media is mostly the enemy of Americans.

We should be so lucky. I may not like it, but I get Ryan worming his way into Fox News with the way the Murdoch sons are committed to wrecking the place, but what is it with Utah voters? Yeah, Romney is a Mormon, but how is it his obvious intention to take up for McCain had zero influence on them?

And you say Ryan is therefore responsible for FOX taking her back? Ryan wasn’t in office at the time she went back to FOX so what’s the connection?

It doesn’t make any sense to reply to a post simply to give your opinion of a certain political figure. It had nothing to do with the question in the post of WHY did FOX take her back.

The answer is apparently because they wanted to - they like to put females to work that irritate the dickens out of the rest of us...

I didn’t know until I looked it up that Ryan had any connection with FOX - never did hear anything about that on the news. It was much earlier this year;long before I told myself I have better things to do than have FOX cable on all day long. As a board member of what they call the NEW Fox Corp., I wonder how much pull he would have in hirings...

Don’t they all look for a niche once they leave Congress? No one ever goes back to the “old homestead.”

“If the Senate were of ANY use, they would be investigating all of the uses of American $$$ Aid over the last decade.”

The Senate or any other Republicans, for that matter.

The reality is that, with very few exceptions, the president is alone in this battle.

Partner, he should have just said you are "A Sixth Grade Brain Journalist" and this will shut her up since she is so dumb.
