If only Reagan would have taken out Iran then. But “public support is not there.” All we did every morning for 400 days was listen to the status of our hostages. A clear act of war.

Worthless GOP will just give Biden what he wants with very token ‘opposition.’

Why would anyone still be watching Fox.

I gave up on Fox after the infamous first Republican primary debate in 2015 with Chris Wallace, Megyn Kelly, and Bret Baier.

That said, some family members have slowly gone back to watching and I've narrowed it down to only three shows actually worth watching IMHO.

  1. Outnumbered - This is Fox's answer to The View. The panelists are almost always conservative, but occasionally they will have a liberal on the couch (usually either Marie Harf or Leslie Marshall).

    Harris Faulkner is the lead host and is very conservative. Emily Campanos is also very conservative and quite outspoken. President Trump's last spokesperson Kayleigh McEnany rounds out the regulars, and she brings the White House expertise to the conversation.

  2. The Five - Dana Perino brings the White House expertise to this show, being a disciple of Fox's Tony Snow. She is the moderate right voice on the panel.

    Jeannine Piro was a district attorney and a judge in Westchester County, New York and brings the legal expertise to the panel. She's a reliable right-wing firebrand.

    Jesse Watters brings the yellow journalism hyperbole to the panel. He has a good memory for the facts and weaves compelling narratives that connects many dots together to make a point, but has a tendency to excess.

    Greg Gutfeld is the court jester who seems to have a sibling rivalry with Watters, who appears to me to be taken more seriously by executives than is Gutfeld. Still, coming from print media Gutfeld often has unique takes on the framing of stories and narratives (if you can get past the scatology).

    Jessica Tarlov is the left-wing extremist. She never met a liberal talking point that she disagrees with (except when it comes to Israel and the Jews). Her favorite tool is "whataboutism" even if she has to go back decades to find ONE example to refute reams of Democrat or left-wing malfeasance.

    Harold Ford, Jr., is the moderate left point of view. He brings knowledge of Congress, but often strains to criticize his side of the aisle ("I don't disagree with you...")

  3. Gutfeld - late-night version of The Five with more scatology and more bleeping.
These three shows give me a general round-up of the day's news without preaching to me or forcing the thought of the day down my throat. Of course, I still have to rely on Free Republic to know what these shows are NOT telling me.

A little help. Biden has mentioned, multiple times that he is the first president to go into a war zone. Is this true, the what about GWB’s secret flight to Baghdad Thanksgiving of 2003. Doesn’t that qualify and if it does why isnt someone correcting the liar?

It was all a volley for Ukraine money - 15 minutes from the oval office and not a single enemy was shaken by that weak messaging....it was Biden getting Zelensky money the only way he can - piggy backing on Israel. He is so disgusting as are those supporting him.

Caught that right quick. Trying to equate Israel and Ukraine. Very transparent, exploiting the situation in Israel into a sales pitch for the Ukraine debacle. No sale! That speech was written by children.

The war started under Obama/Biden in 2014. The US/EU engineered coup of the duly elected government of Ukraine spawned the separatist movement in the Donbas and the unopposed, first Russian invasion that led to the annexation of Crimea.

What was the reaction of Obama/Biden? Some meaningless sanctions and business as usual. Joe got his bribes and Hunter got a million dollars a year job as a board member of the corrupt oil company, Burisma.

Ukraine is not a democracy. It is run by corrupt oligarchs. Zelensky has outlawed the Orthodox Church and jailed some priests. There is no free press and Zelensky is going to postpone next years elections.

‘The Five’ tends to be very good - the only thing I watch routinely, despite the Tarlov critter.

We are so screwed with this clown in charge.

Indeed. How do we get to January 2025?! And every idiot who voted for him - regardless of fraud he still got votes - should be publicly punished.

FJB, considering his exit from Afghanistan.

The Obama/Biden Regime is an unmitigated disaster. To date only the Bad Guys have benefited from this Regime, from the Mexican Cartels, China, Russia to Iran/Hamas/Hezbollah.

Nobody challenged Miss Martha when she claimed Carter was President in 1973.
And, yes, Biden is a filthy liar!

Lincoln visited the battlefield on June 20, 1864.

Mo’ money and mo’ money, nevermind whaffor. Just vote it in, gotta get the cash out there right away.

First priority is “humanitarian aid” for the “poor Palestinian folks of Gaza”. Which is going right to the pockets of Hamas.

Publicly threatening Russia with NATO, what the heck. Kept repeating no US troops to fight in Ukraine - one time he said Russia - which means nothing since they're already involved, just a matter now of how deep it gets. Then he was celebrating our lovely war economy jobs program with mention of all the munitions being "made in America". Nasty, bizarre speech.
