FOX News Media’s Stuart Varney and Dana Perino will co-moderate the second Republican presidential primary debate alongside Univision's Ilia Calderón on Sept. 27 on FOX Business Network. "We are very proud to have Stuart Varney and Dana Perino co-moderating the second debate with Univision to provide Americans with a comprehensive view of the qualifying candidates vying for the Republican nomination for president," FOX News Media President and Executive Editor Jay Wallace said. FOX Business will host the debate from the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute in Simi Valley, California.

U.S. states have reportedly had it with leftist behemoth hedge funds like Vanguard Group exploiting woke environmental, social and governance standards to overhaul American culture into a leftist dreamscape. Thirteen Republican attorneys general led by Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes (R) “filed a rare motion Monday” asking the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission “to prevent” Vanguard Group from “purchasing shares of publicly listed utility companies,” according to Fox Business. The reason? The hedge fund has a particular obsession for ESG investing. The AGs are reportedly asking “to hold a hearing examining whether Vanguard Group should be given blanket authorization to purchase...

Stuart Varney's show on Fox Business has been a staple for me in the mornings for a very long time. I liked him — his story, his style, and the way he brings along others to build their careers. He has always maintained his dignity and been civil to his guests. Now, however, he has a full-blown case of Trump Derangement Syndrome and is blowing a long career for it. He doesn't like Trump. Okay, I get it. Since just before the election, however, he has become an activist and an unfair one at that. He has a segment called...

Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo has had it with President Joe Biden’s administration for spending trillions like it’s going out of style while the nation reels from an inflation crisis. Bartiromo smacked the Biden White House for its inflation-instigating policies during the Sept. 15 edition of Fox News’s America’s Newsroom. “Remember, the polls that you showed at the top of this show, show Americans think this administration is incompetent,” she said. “It’s not just incompetence, it’s also tone deaf, because it keeps coming out with more spending.” The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) estimated Sept. 13 that the...

Fox Business host Stuart Varney highlighted President Joe Biden’s culpability on inflation, and liberal media efforts to shield him from responsibility by shifting blame to the Russia-Ukraine war.

Fox Business host Charles Payne demolished global elites like founder and World Economic Forum Executive Director Klaus Schwab and former Bank of Canada and Bank of England Governor Mark Carney for abject hypocrisy around issues including climate change and wealth disparity.

Neil Young’s music is back on Spotify. Last month, Young removed his library from Spotify after the service refused to censor Joe Rogan. But just a few weeks later, Young’s team quietly reuploaded his music, says FOX Business. That’s what you call an unsuccessful boycott. Neil Young’s music quietly returns to Spotify amid Joe Rogan protest https://t.co/MXBgyii5PS — Fox News (@FoxNews) February 15, 2022 Young cried that Rogan was spreading “false information about vaccines — potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation.” He told Spotify it “can have Rogan or Young. Not both.” Spotify chose Rogan but added...

Infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci will appear Friday on Fox Business after months of remaining largely absent from the network. An interview with Fauci conducted by Fox News Media host Neil Cavuto will air on "Cavuto: Coast to Coast" at 1 p.m. eastern, marking a rare appearance by the president's chief medical advisor on a network that has clashed with him repeatedly in the past.

It’s hard to recall a former politician who was showered with more free media attention than Chris Christie this month as he peddled his new book, “Republican Rescue.” Invited to appear on a carousel of shows, Christie was all-present as journalists lined up to interview him. CNN even dedicated an entire primetime hour to him, treating the in-your-face Republican as one of the most important political voices in the country. Consumers aren’t buying it. A senior publishing source with access to the industry’s BookScan tabulations tells me that “Republican Rescue” sold just 2,289 copies during its first week in stores,...

Fox Business host Charles Payne placed the blame for spiking energy prices right at the feet of President Joe Biden's fossil fuel “war.” Fox News anchor John Roberts called out the “inherent contradiction” of Biden begging the international oil cartel Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to pump more oil while “choking the domestic production of oil.” Roberts, during the Aug. 12 edition of America Reports, alluded to how Biden was passing the buck and suggesting rising prices are due to anti-competitive market behavior. Payne, Roberts’ guest, questioned Biden: “Are you against oil in general — you know, I...

Just a heads up. Pres. Trump will be on Fox Business with Stuart Varney, Mon. June 7 at 9:00 AM

Fox Business host Charles Payne completely tore into corporate America for virtue signaling on social justice issues like racism. Payne slammed the faux outrage coming from big businesses pandering to the left. “The bottom line is corporate virtue signaling is not only phony, but it is actually making the situation worse. So, my message to corporate America is just shut up, and do the right thing. That is, if you really give a damn,” Payne said during the May 20 edition of Making Money. Payne stated that he was leery of big businesses “opining openly on social issues, and more...

Fox Business host Charles Payne told the American people what many in the media wouldn’t dare say: Giving people money to not work doesn’t incentivize them to find a job. Payne scorched the haphazard predictions by economists and the media that the U.S. economy would add 1 million new jobs in April. He called the predictions a massive “swing and a miss” during the May 7 edition of Making Money. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) clocked the increase in April at an embarrassing 266,000 jobs, and the unemployment rate ticked up to 6.1 percent. Payne lambasted how “the narrative...

Author and former New York Times reporter Alex Berenson joined Fox Business to sound the alarm on the amount of power that Big Tech wields over the flow of information. Berenson slammed Big Tech companies like Facebook for wanting it “both ways.” Specifically, if Big Tech companies were utilities, they would not be held liable for “every bit of speech” across their platforms, but at the same time that would mean they “can’t censor anything,” Berenson said. Regarding opinions and factually inaccurate information, Berenson asked on the March 25 edition of Mornings with Maria: “Do we want these companies in...

White House Press Secretary Jennifer Psaki shocked the internet when she drastically shifted the talking points on President Joe Biden’s major tax hike plans. Fox Business wasn’t having it. Psaki clarified during a press briefing Wednesday that “families” with household incomes totaling over $400,000 will see their taxes increase. The statement appeared to directly contradict Biden’s indication that individuals — not families — would see taxes increased during an interview with ABC News that aired the same day: “Yes, anybody making more than $400,000 will see a small to a significant tax increase … If you make less than $400,000,...

Economic adviser to late President Ronald Reagan Arthur Laffer joined Fox Business yesterday to dismantle the nutty economic thinking behind President Joe Biden’s leftist tax agenda. Fox Business host Larry Kudlow asked Laffer if it was “true that rich people and corporations — and by the way, small business tax hikes are in this Democratic plan — is it true they don’t pay their fair share?” Biden has been reportedly eyeing the “first major” tax hike since 1993, which would include reversing some of former President Donald Trump’s tax cuts. Laffer didn’t hesitate in his answer: “No, it’s not true,...

Hoover Institution visiting fellow Bjorn Lomborg joined Fox Business to slap down the left’s climate change fanaticism. Lomborg told Fox Business host Larry Kudlow that there’s “a lot of hype going on with climate change.” He suggested that there has been a lack of a sense of proportion when it comes to the focus on climate change. Specifically, Lomborg stated that “the U.N. Climate Panel tells us that in the 2070s — so, more than 50 years from now — the net impact of global warming will be equivalent to each one of us losing [only] somewhere between 0.2 and...

OANN CEO Robert Herring offers Lou Dobbs a new home on the competing cable news network. One America News Network CEO Robert Herring seemingly offered a job to former-Fox Business host, Lou Dobbs, after his former network fired him following a lawsuit from Smartmatic, one of the voting machine companies accused of being complicit in widespread fraud in the 2020 election. “One America News would like Lou Dobbs to get in contact with us,” wrote Herring. “We may have a position available for you in which you wouldn’t be censored for speaking the truth!” Dobbs’ show was cancelled by Fox...

“The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.” Although he never actually uttered those precise words, that quote often attributed to Mark Twain sprang to mind as I watched snarling Tazmanian Devils in broadcast and print media rejoicing over Friday’s abrupt cancellation of Lou Dobbs Tonight by the FOX Business Network. Braying hyenas like media critic Brian Stelter at CNN could hardly contain their glee. “Dobbs is going away,” Stelter declared, adding: “I think he was partly dismissed just ‘cause management had had enough of him. They were tired of his BS.” (Apparently viewers don’t share Stelter’s view, since...

Fox Business host Charles Payne was livid over trading restrictions placed on super-popular stocks. The Robinhood trading app had restricted transactions on certain securities, following the GameStop stock surge that sent its price soaring and Wall Street reeling. Robinhood is one of a number of brokerages like Webull Financial LLC, E*Trade Financial Corp. and Interactive Brokers Group Inc that placed restrictions on securities like GameStop ($GME) and AMC Entertainment ($AMC). The restrictions only left traders with the option to hold or sell, causing stocks like GameStop to give up some of their massive gains. Payne ripped Wall Street for its...
