Fox News’ In-House Trump Adviser Allows Him To Lie And Whine For Full Hour in Iowa

Coup-attempting former President Donald Trump appeared on his home turf Thursday evening, with Fox News host and informal adviser Sean Hannity allowing him to lie unchallenged on a variety of topics for an hour before a “town hall” audience in Iowa.
Within the first 20 minutes alone, Trump falsely claimed that he had forced China to pay the United States billions of dollars in tariffs, that the U. S. had left behind $85 billion in military equipment in Afghanistan and the U. S. had retaken the lead in spaceflight thanks to his creation of the Space Force.

In fact, the tariffs imposed on foreign goods are paid by Americans who import them, the military hardware left in Afghanistan was the property of the Afghan government, and the U. S. Space Force was merely a renaming of the Air Force Space Command, which had existed since the Reagan administration.
The one potentially news-making question Hannity asked, about the existence of an audio recording in which Trump reportedly admits he knew that he was in possession of a classified document at his Florida country club, Trump answered: “I don’t know anything about it.”

Thursday’s program was in marked contrast to one produced by CNN in New Hampshire last month, when moderator Kaitlan Collins, a former White House reporter during Trump’s presidency, repeatedly fact-checked Trump in real time, particularly about his claims of a “stolen” election in 2020.
Hannity opened the program by making it clear he would not be doing any of that. “It’s not my job to debate the candidate,” he said.

Biden Has Priceless Response To Fox News Question On Possible Trump Pardon

President Joe Biden was asked on Monday if he or any other future president should consider a pardon for Donald Trump, who is facing potential federal charges in the classified documents probe.

Biden didn’t provide much in the way of an answer ― yet managed to speak volumes at the same time.
The question came from Peter Doocy of Fox News.

“Did you see that Ron DeSantis said that if he became president he would pardon Trump?” Doocy asked. “Where are you on the idea of presidents pardoning Trump?”


Biden chuckled, waved and walked away.
“I’ll see you guys,” he said over his shoulder. “Great question.”

DeSantis, the governor of Florida and a Trump rival for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said last week he would look at “any example of disfavored treatment” as he considers pardons on “day one” of his presidency.

“I will have folks that will get together and look at all these cases... people [who] are victims of weaponization or political targeting, and we will be aggressive at issuing pardons,” he said when asked about the possibility of pardons for the former president and the Jan. 6 rioters who attempted to block the certification of the 2020 election.
