James S. Brady Press Briefing Room3:35 P.M. EDTMS. MCENANY:  Good afternoon, everyone.  I’d like to begin by detailing the historic private-public partnership effort launched by the Trump administration to combat the coronavirus.  As both a businessman and as President, you’ll all remember then-candidate Donald Trump, now President Donald Trump, being adamant about bringing manufacturing jobs back to America.President Obama and the Democrats had given up on manufacturing with President Obama’s erroneously prediction that Trump would need a magic wand in order to bring back American jobs.  Not so.The reality is President Trump revived manufacturing in this country, and he...

Microsoft founder and philanthropist Bill Gates appeared on Fox News Sunday in which he reiterated his 2018 statement that the world should be “preparing for a pandemic in the same serious way it prepares for war.” Gates, whose foundation -- the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation -- has invested heavily in global health, suggested staging simulations, war games, and preparedness exercises to simulate how diseases could spread and to identify the best response. The concluding analysis, as per the mainstream media (and certain social/online communications), is that the Trump administration has done exactly the opposite. Among the evidence to prove...

Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez appeared on "Fox News Sunday." During the discussion with Chris Wallace, the issue of providing health care to illegal aliens came up. "Every person on that stage – all 10 of them – said that they would provide health insurance coverage for people in this country illegally, either under Obamacare or Medicare For All, whichever they supported," Wallace said. "No talk about preexisting conditions, you gotta be working in this country. No talk about you gotta be paying in taxes. The basic point was that you're in this country legally or illegally, you get health...

White House counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway did not take kindly to Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace’s line of questioning when he turned the discussion to her marriage. Wallace asked about the state of her marriage to George Conway, a vocal critic of President Donald Trump. Wallace began by showing a string of tweets and comments from George blasting Trump. Followed by video of the president responding to the criticism with misogynist immature insults, calling him a “wack job” and “Mr. Kellyanne.” Wallace then flatly asked: “Why is your husband attacking your boss?”

RUSH: I was overwhelmed with email reaction to Fox News Sunday yesterday, more than ever. I’m hard-pressed to figure out why. I think it’s probably ’cause I don’t do these things very often and we’re in the midst of massive audience growth and so forth, but I just want to thank everybody. And even though those of you who were snarky about the glasses, I love you. I absolutely love you. “You look like Harry Potter.” You know, every time I go on TV, I prove what it is about TV. The only thing that matters is how you look,...

RUSH: I just heard from the Fox News Sunday people. As you know… Well, maybe you don’t know, because I really haven’t touted it enough. I’ve only mentioned it once. See, talking about myself is never at the forefront of my mind. But anyway, they’re going to have me on in two segments. I was originally going to be on the third segment for 12 minutes, which would start around 9:28. But now they’re going to have me open the show and then come back later in the show. So I’m going to be first… I don’t know what the...

RUSH: I appeared on Fox News Sunday yesterday with Chris Wallace. It was a 12- to 13-minute segment, and I have always suggested to the Fox people, “You know what you really ought to do is have my segment and have it go as it goes and then near the end of the program in your roundtable bring me back for the roundtable to analyze what I said. That has never been done.” And of course they’ve never taken me up on it.You know what I thought I’d do, I thought I’d do it today right here on this program....

Author and talk-show host Laura Ingraham is being considered for White House press secretary. On Fox News Sunday, Ingraham demonstrated she was more than ready to come to the emerging administration's defense. After Fox analyst Juan Williams claimed Trump was nominating a "team of radicals," singling out Sen. Jeff Sessions and Gen. Mike Flynn -- something no liberal journalist said about Obama's Cabinet picks like Eric "Nation of Cowards" Holder and HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius -- Ingraham took out a rhetorical hammer: Ingraham Decimates Juan Williams on 'Team of Radicals' ChargeINGRAHAM: Well, there was a lot said by Juan. But...

Hillary Clinton Interviwed by Chris Wallace On "Fox News Sunday" (7/31/2016)

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace clashed Sunday over a watchdog report released that showed Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton didn't comply with rules set by the State Department. "She was mistaken. She thought it was approved, and the practice was allowed, and she wrong," Schiff said about Clinton's use of a personal email server during her tenure as secretary of State. "The report also makes clear that Secretary Powell also thought it was appropriate to use a personal server, private server," said Schiff, who is also a ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee....

In an interview with “Fox News Sunday,” President Barack Obama defended his response to terrorist attacks, saying, no one has “taken more terrorists off the field” than he has in his two terms in the White House. “I would say this — there isn’t a president who’s taken more terrorists off the field than me, over the last seven-and-a-half years. I’m the guy who calls the families, or meets with them, or hugs them, or tries to comfort a mom, or a dad, or a husband, or a kid, after a terrorist attack. So, let’s be very clear about how...

GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump would "get crushed" by Hillary Clinton, fellow Republican Jeb Bush said Sunday. "Donald Trump, I don't believe, is going to be the party's nominee," Bush told "Fox News Sunday." "And if he is, he's going to get crushed by Hillary Clinton. I wanted to point that out."

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: By the way, people have been asking about the ratings for my appearance on Fox News Sunday. Fox News Sunday had their highest ratings in nine years. I sent Chris Wallace a note, 'cause he sent a note thanking me. I sent him a note back saying, "You know what we should do next time? Next time you have me on as your guest and then put me on the panel analyzing what I just said. In fact, make me the panel." I said, "Chris, we could blow television wide open. Have me on as a guest,...

You can watch the full video at the link Radio host Rush Limbaugh made a rare television appearance this morning on Fox News Sunday. During the interview, Chris Wallace had a “lightning round” where Rush was asked to appraise several of the Presidential candidates. Check out his assessment of Sen. Ted Cruz:

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh made a rare television appearance Sunday morning, joining "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace to discuss ISIS and the Syrian refugee crisis. After criticizing President Obama for seeming more angry at Republicans than the terrorists who attacked Paris, Limbaugh moved on to comment about the Republican presidential nominees, offering a glowing review of Donald Trump. “Donald Trump is, I think, doing a great service,” Limbaugh said. “He is showing that you do not have to fear attacks from media. He's showing you do not have to fear being politically correct or violating political correctness.”(continued)

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I will be appearing on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace this Sunday. I just confirmed that. Just in case I forget to mention it the rest of the day, I wanted to have it out. I think I'm gonna be up first. I don't know. But, if it's like last time, I'm up first, and then the rest of the show will be about what I said. That's if I do my job right. Hee-hee-hee-hee. Yes, siree. END TRANSCRIPT

WALLACE: So what does this brutal attack in Paris tell us about the growing terror threat and how the U.S. needs to respond? To discuss that, let's brings in Congressman Peter King, chair of the House Subcommittee on Terrorism. Chairman King, what's the latest intel that you have received? Was it in fact ISIS? Were these homegrown terrorists? Or had they been trained and directed from Syria? REP. PETER KING, R-NY, SELECT INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE: Chris, the picture is still not entirely clear. Having said that, though, it is clear it was ISIS. Whether or not it was out of a...

Chris Wallace should probably stick to grilling Republican presidential candidates. Somehow, during a radio interview with conservative host Mike Gallagher on Friday, the Fox News Sunday host got pulled into a discussion about former American Idol star Kelly Clarkson’s weight. The two men were discussing Little Caesars’ bacon-wrapped crust pizza when Gallagher brought up “fat shaming.” “Have you seen Kelly Clarkson? You know the singer, Kelly Clarkson?” Gallagher asked Wallace. “Holy cow, did she blow up.” At first, it seemed that Wallace was going to avoid joining in on this bizarre line of questioning, saying he thinks Clarkson has “got...
