Did Pete honestly expect every media outlet to be like Fox? (As in do everything possible to make even the worst Republican look good, while attacking everything Dems do and making up even worse stuff they "might" do.) These guys want a literal state TV, and they're at war with the real press.

Hegseth: "A free press is of course important, but partisan activism that intentionally smears the troops and the historic mission that they are undertaking is fundamentally anti-American. It's sick. It's a national betrayal. It's treason."

I’ve been asked to weigh in on the debate over whether to bring an iced coffee to an interview. It doesn't matter. Iced coffee is NOT why it's hard to land a job right now, and it's NOT why Gen Z can't get ahead. Our economy is rigged. We need to change that.

A US ambassador's job is to protect & defend the citizens & interests of the United States. US Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, has failed to do so. As violence consumes the West Bank & extremists call for a Greater Israel, he's become a mouthpiece for the Israeli govt. He should resign.

"There is no longer a public domain." I see this every time my Fox-viewing mother and I discuss current events. People (especially those in charge) are quick to call "fake news" on anything they don't agree with. And so many people get their news from memes because facts are paywalled.

grandpa is talking crazy about the TV again
Why does FoxNews always put Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Jessica Tarlov, and every Democrat on, saying bad things about the Republican Party and, of course, me? I actually think they get more airtime than Pro Republicans. This is why MAGA, and REAL Patriots, will never like Fox! They repeat a completely negative narrative, on and on it goes, and then we get a quick retort. It’s truly amazing that I won all three Elections. The opposition is enormous, but the fight goes on!
