Fox News Spreading Putin's 'Propaganda and Lies,' Liz Cheney Says

Representative Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, criticized Fox News Thursday for having retired Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor, who has made controversial comments about Russia's war in Ukraine, on as a guest.

"Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch - Why do you continually put Douglas MacGregor on @FoxNews to spread Putin's propaganda and lies? This is absolutely not in America's interest," Cheney said in a tweet referring to the Murdochs, who control Fox Corporation.

However, it IS PUTIN who likes to pull up the shirt and kiss the bare bellies of young boys in public. I guess going bare chested and showing off his tits is not exciting enough for him.

[gleeaikin]

Maybe her husband just needs to do a better job of taking care of business.

[waterhill]

Think that’s a Russian thing. Is kissing your granddaughter on the lips an American thing?

[gleeaikin]

Being against an aggressor who seizes other people’s country and best resources, especially when they had surrendered all their nukes for a non-aggression agreement, hardly makes one a Biden fan. It does make them very angry at Putin/Russia for their cruelty and destruction.

[waterhill]

Ole Biden might as well just pork her right there on the stage and wherever a granddad wants.Jesus effing Christ.

[waterhill]

Hey glee, it’s a cover up for the Biden syndicate. Money laundering is a crime. This B’s war makes Biden a smart man, kinda like bush and Iraq.

[gleeaikin]

There may be some American sub-cultures for who kissing grandchildren on the lips might be customary. However, for my English, Welsh, German grandparents, it most definitely was not. And Putin did not kiss a young relative on the belly, it was a stranger. And he also forced his girlfriend to get an abortion of their child, maybe 2 of them. I think female. He apparently has a Henry VIII complex, even though Elizabeth 1st turned out to be one of the best queens England ever had.

If you take it personally.

I agree fully that the illegimate Brandon regime police state is much more a threat to us. We are a full on totalitarian state.

That they pretend to be against Putin does not therefore make Putin good.

For Cheney to be out the door and get something right is kind of ironic. Because what she said has a lot of truth to it.

Those who stand with Ukraine know Biden, the Democrats, Republicans, and the MSM are corrupt. The news lies. The news does not only lie and tells the truth when it suits them. Because they lie that does not mean any other alternative narrative is automatically true. This includes FOX and Tucker Carlson. We also know the world did not stop when Biden was sworn. The rest of the worlds does not live their lives and have politics and problems based on what makes life easy for us between our Presidential and Congressional elections.

MacGregor has agreed with and has been as wrong as Scott Ritter since the war began. In February and April he was telling it was all over and Ukraine should give up. When Ukraine launched its counter attack in Kharkiv, when Macgregor was on Tucker Carlson on September 12, he went full blown bunker scene at the end of the movie in denial of what was happening. Ukrainians pulled off the biggest counter offensive since World War II to defend their country. The response of the many conservatives was to deny it happened at all. Macgregor was not the only one to go bunker mentality.

For all the claims Macgregor and others make of how Russia is acting so smart, how bad Ukrainian casualties are, how Europe and NATO are falling apart, then Russia would have won by the end of March. The longer this goes on, the more shrill they are in all the claims they have made for seven months, all of which have proven wrong - other than the war is on going.

Ukraine moving to take back Lyman. that will open up the eastern side of the Oskil and all of Northeast Ukraine, then south along the coast. "Experts" like Macgregor, Ritter and the rest of Russian Shill Inc. avoid mentioning that. I wonder why.

Nonsense.

“However, it IS PUTIN who likes to pull up the shirt and kiss the bare bellies of young boys in public. I guess going bare chested and showing off his tits is not exciting enough for him.”

Fair comment, but other than that one picture (of which many more of Biden doing worse exist), I don’t see any POLICY DIRECTION out of Russia intended to destroy kids, as we do have with the Transgenders now having power in DC. In fact, they’ve outlawed Grooming, something which the West is now PUNISHING Hungary for.

[mac_truck]

Maybe her husband needs to do an intervention

Her husband is a DC lawyer whose firm represents Hunter Biden...they both need an intervention.

“If you take it personally.”

Am I not supposed to take personal attacks, personally?

Sounds like we agree on Brandon, at least.

As to Putin, we all can make our judgements on him. On virtually every issue, I get REALLY SUSPICIOUS when the Western Media and the Left vilifies anyone, be it Reagan, Trump, or Putin, as in virtually every case, the person they’re vilifying is NOT a threat to me or the United States, and are most often fighting our threats.

So if they’re after Putin, I look at the FACTS regarding him and make my decision and with Putin, most of the ‘facts’ seem to be some type of ‘Mind Reading’ of Putin (wants to take over Europe) or flat-out lies (stole the election for Trump), rather than what he’s done or said.

[vivenne]

She really seems unhinged. I wonder why no one on her team is reeling her in. Maybe it’s intentional and part of some larger strategy, a bad one. She’s just showing the world what a vile shrew she is and actually. I think it helps Trump and Hagerman.

[Krosan]

>What’s wrong with a different perspective? Is DM not credible?

He has been consistently extremely wrong. MacGregor said on March 5th that in 10 days Russia will have defeated Ukraine. Then he corrected himself on March 7th and said Russia has already won and the Ukrainian military is entirely destroyed.

[JoJo354]

She has gone scorched earth since her loss. She is a petty, insecure child. And is acting like a scorned woman who wants to murder her ex. It is crazy!

Not where I come from. Only lip kissers are teen/ADULT significant others. We look askance at lip kissers of children.
