Trump Turns Tables On Megyn Kelly


By Christian Datoc, Aug 06, 2015 Daily Caller

Donald Trump — in response to a question from Fox News’ Megyn Kelly — declined to apologize for comments some might view as insensitive and even got a dig in on the debate moderator.


“What I say is what I say,” the real estate mogul retorted. In Trump’s eyes, bigger problem with America, “is being politically correct… What I say, often times it’s fun, it’s kidding. We have a good time… and if, Megyn, you don’t like it, then I’m sorry. I’ve been very nice to you, though I could probably not be based on the way you’ve been treating me, but I wouldn’t do that.”

Krauthammer: Obama Comparing Republicans to Iranian Hardliners


By Charles Krauthammer, Aug 05, 2015
Real Clear Politics

On FOX News' Kelly File Wednesday night, syndicated columnist Charleston Krauthammer said that President Obama likening the GOP to Iranians who chant "death to America" is "a new low" for him.

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: It's vintage Obama, the demonization of his opponent, the lumping them together with people chanting death to America, I must say is a new low for the president considering. Which is saying a lot considering how he does demonize the opposition. But what is even worse here is how delusional he is. He is pretending that those who chant death to America are some kind of KKK fringe in Iran. The people leading the chant of the Revolutionary Guard, the army, the parliamentary leaders and of course -- as he always calls them, Obama always does -- the Supreme Leader himself in a speech he made just a few days after the signing of the agreement the chants break out death to America, death to Israel and the Ayatollah said may Allah hear your prayers.

The Fox News GOP Debate Could Draw The Biggest Audience In Cable News History

By  Gabriel Sherman, July 30, 2015 NY Mag

At the start of his career, not long after he helped Richard Nixon win the 1968 election, Roger Ailes boasted to a reporter that television would one day replace the political party as the most powerful force in American politics. If there is any doubt that the Fox News founder has largely made that prediction come true, it should be erased by the panic that next week’s Fox debate is stoking inside the GOP. In a year that features the largest primary field in modern history — not to mention Donald Trump as a front-runner — campaign strategists worry that Ailes's debate, which is likely to attract the biggest audience in cable-news history, could define the race more than five months before the first votes are cast.

Two Weeks To Go: Republicans Scramble To Make Debate Stage

By Jonathan Easley, July 27, 2015 The Hill

The race is on for the final spots on stage for the first Republican debate.

With the highly-anticipated showdown less than two weeks away, candidates with low polling numbers are in a high-stakes scramble to qualify for an event that represents their best shot at breaking out.

Fox News is capping the Aug. 6 debate in Cleveland at 10 candidates based on five as-of-yet unspecified national polls released by 5 p.m. on Aug. 4.

Based on five polls used by RealClearPolitics (RCP), eight candidates look like locks to make the stage, while the race for the final two slots is headed for a controversial photo finish. For the candidates currently ranked between ninth place and 14th place, the polling differential is negligible.

The Murdoch/Trump Twitter Feud Which Could Catch Fire

By Salon Staff, July 20, 2015 Salon

Rupert Murdoch and the Wall Street Journal have soured on Donald Trump. Now what will Fox News do?

On Saturday, after Trump crossed a line in the eyes of many Republicans with his comments on John McCain’s war record, Rupert Murdoch tweeted that:

That was followed this morning by a scathing Wall Street Journal editorial which argued that:

It came slightly ahead of schedule, but Donald Trump’s inevitable self-immolation arrived on the weekend when he assailed John McCain’s war record. The question now is how long his political and media apologists on the right will keep pretending he’s a serious candidate.

The piece also called out conservative magazine editors — Bill Kristol, we’d assume — for enabling Trump and his rise to the top of the GOP polls. (It did not mention a certain conservative cable news network which has also helped enable Trump.)

Hannity Hits Geraldo: ‘America Under Obama’ Is ‘A Sanctuary Country’   

By Connor Williams, July 9, 2015 NewsBusters

On the July 8 edition of Fox News’s Hannity, Geraldo Rivera and the host battled over immigration in the aftermath of the death of San Francisco native Kate Steinle at the hands of an illegal immigrant. Geraldo insisted repeatedly that “these monstrous criminals” have virtually nothing in common with “the vast majority of undocumented immigrants.” 

Hannity conceded that point and argued, “that’s not the issue.” The Fox News personality tried to make the point that these crimes would not happen if America had effective border security. He added: “[H]ere’s the problem. Even if we do deport them, they come back. You know why they can get back? Because we don't secure the border...He went to San Francisco because it's a sanctuary city and America under Obama has become a sanctuary country.”

After Hannity cited crime numbers from illegal immigrants who had previously been convicted of felonies, Rivera noted: “That's a population of 11 million or more. They commit crimes at a lesser rate – they commit crimes at a lesser rate than citizens.” The long time Fox News host disputed Geraldo’s claim, saying it was “actually not true.”

Immigration: Man Arrested In Connection With San Francisco Killing Had Been Deported Several Times

By Judson Berger, Jul. 4, 2015, Fox News

The man arrested in connection with the seemingly random killing of a woman who was out for a stroll with her father along the San Francisco waterfront is an illegal immigrant who previously had been deported five times, federal immigration officials say.

Further, Immigration and Customs Enforcement says San Francisco had him in their custody earlier this year but failed to notify ICE when he was released.

"DHS records indicate ICE lodged an immigration detainer on the subject at that time, requesting notification prior to his release so ICE officers could make arrangements to take custody. The detainer was not honored," ICE said in a statement Friday afternoon.

IRS Watchdog: IT Boss ‘Blown Away’ That IRS Backup Tapes In Lerner Case Erased

By Chad Pergram, Jun. 2, 2015, Fox News

The chief technology officer at the IRS was "blown away" after learning backup tapes that likely contained messages to and from controversial ex-official Lois Lerner were destroyed, according to an internal government watchdog report.

The 1,600-page report, prepared by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, examined the agency's handling of Lerner's missing emails and apparent computer crash. Lerner is the former official at the heart of the scandal over IRS targeting of Tea Party and other conservative groups, but lawmakers were told last year that some of her electronic communications had been lost.

The effort to recover those files has seemingly been marked by a string of blunders. Inspector General J. Russell George first told lawmakers last week that 422 backup tapes were "magnetically erased" around March 4, 2014, meaning thousands of emails might never be recovered.

Benghazi Night Call Between Clinton And Obama Withheld, Documents Show

Photo: Pete Souza/White House
By Catherine Herridge, Jun. 29, 2015, Fox News

New documents released by a federal court show President Obama called then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the night of the 2012 Benghazi attack -- but the contents are being withheld by the State Department.

It had previously been disclosed that Clinton and Obama spoke the night of the terror attacks. But the documents offer additional information about the timing of the call -- after the initial attack on the U.S. consulate, but before the second wave where mortars hit the nearby CIA annex and killed former Navy SEALs Ty Woods and Glen Doherty.

The contents of the call, however, are being withheld, not because the information is classified but because the administration claims they represent internal deliberations about the 2012 terror assault.

The claim comes as Clinton also faces accusations that she withheld Benghazi-related emails from her private server in the trove of emails handed over to the State Department.

Newspaper Faces Firestorm After Attempted Crackdown On Anti-Gay Marriage Op-Eds 

By Fox News, Jun. 27, 2015

A Pennsylvania newspaper is facing a firestorm of criticism after the editorial board said it would "very strictly limit" op-eds and letters against same-sex marriage on the heels of Friday's historic Supreme Court ruling.

PennLive/The Patriot-News in Harrisburg has issued a string of statements on its opinion page policies since the ruling -- which legalized gay marriage nationwide -- and by Saturday morning, appeared to have softened its op-ed restrictions on the subject.

But the newspaper initially took a hard-line stance. Editorial Page Editor John Micek tweeted shortly after the ruling that the newspaper would "no longer accept" or print op-eds and letters to the editor in opposition to same-sex marriage.

French Terror Suspect Took Selfie With Beheaded Victim 

LAURENT CIPRIANI / AP
By Fox News, Jun. 28, 2015

The man suspected of beheading a French businessman took a selfie photo with his victim and sent the message through WhatsApp to a Canadian cell phone, officials said Saturday.

French investigators are working to determine the identity of the recipient, but were not sure whether it was an unspecified person who is now in Syria.

The revelation has done more to revive concerns about terrorism in France than it’s added to whether there is a link between the terror attack to radical groups, the paper reports.

The main suspect in the killing is Yassin Salhi, a truck driver with a history of Islamic ties. He was arrested and detained Friday after police say he crashed a truck into a US-owned chemical plant and hung his employer’s severed head on a factory gate. Police also detained his sister and wife. The three are in police custody in Lyon.

Bill O’Reilly Gets Apology From MSNBC’s Chris Hayes: Is Al Sharpton Next? 

By Inquisitr, Jun. 26, 2015

Bill O’Reilly calls out a lot of people who misquote him and shames them as much as he could, although barely anybody actually makes an apology to the Fox News star. However, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes has actually apologized to O’Reilly. TV Newser has the scoop.

“MSNBC host Chris Hayes apologized tonight to Fox News host Bill O’Reilly over a segment on the Confederate flag that included Hayes telling viewers Bill O’Reilly said it represents the bravery of Confederates who fought in the Civil War.”

TV Newser goes on to note that after Bill O’Reilly called Hayes’ report “a complete distortion,” Hayes admitted he made a mistake and said he should have not attributed a false quote to O’Reilly.

Another MSNBC host, Al Sharpton, has ripped O’Reilly to shreds over the past few years. Somehow, it’s doubtful he will apologize since O’Reilly has referred to him as a charlatan. A Business Insider article from last year quoted O’Reilly’s anger towards Al Sharpton and others who he considers race exploiters.

Bill Maher Says Matt Drudge, Fox News And Conservative Media Inspired Dylann Roof [VIDEO]

 By Chuck Ross, Jun. 20, 2015, Daily Caller

 Comedian Bill Maher said conservative media — including the Drudge Report, Fox News and The Daily Caller — may have had a hand in inspiring Dylann Roof to shoot up a black church in Charleston, S.C. this week.
What do you think?

Maher was discussing the massacre with a panel on his HBO show, “Real Time with Bill Maher,” that included Daily Caller senior contributor Matt Lewis.
What do you think?

“We can never know why someone snaps, but I bet you I know where he got his news,” Maher said, referring to Roof, who killed nine people in the attack on Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church.
What do you think?

“I looked at your website the last week,” Maher continued, referring to The Daily Caller. “There were a lot of stories about black people. A lot of stories.”

NAACP Lends Supports To Local Leader Accused Of Misrepresenting Herself As Black

By Fox News, Jun. 12, 2015

The NAACP issued a statement Friday in support of a local NAACP leader in Washington state who has been accused by her family of misrepresenting herself as black.

The civil rights group rushed to the defense of Rachel Dolezal, the head of the NAACP Spokane chapter, after the woman’s parents told a newspaper Thursday her ancestry was white with some “faint traces” of Native American heritage.

Dolezal “is enduring a legal issue with her family, and we respect her privacy in this matter,” the NAACP said.

“One’s racial identity is not a qualifying criteria or disqualifying standard for NAACP leadership. The NAACP Alaska-Oregon-Washington State Conference stands behind M. Dolezal’s advocacy record,” the group added.

The statement also alluded to media reports that have raised skepticism over claims Dolezal had received hate mail in late February and March.

Bill Clinton Contradicts Hillary On Email Claims

By Fox News, Jun. 11, 2015

Bill Clinton appeared Wednesday to contradict his wife's claims about their personal email use, saying he's only sent two emails in his life -- despite Hillary Clinton saying some of the private messages on her personal server were from her and her husband.

The former president addressed his very sparing email use at a Clinton Global Initiative meeting in Denver.

He said the "only time" he got on the Internet was to do "two emails" and order Christmas presents.

"Otherwise I found people said embarrassing things on emails. I didn't want to be one of them," Clinton said, to laughter.

The statement echoes what a spokesman told the Wall Street Journal in March -- that the ex-president had only sent two emails in his life, one to U.S. troops and the other to astronaut John Glenn.

Bikers Continued Jailing Sparks Waco Protest 3 Weeks Later

Rod Aydelotte/Waco Tribune Herald via AP
By Associated Press, Jun. 7, 2015, Fox News

WACO, Texas – Several hundred bikers protested Sunday outside a courthouse in Waco over the continued jailing of more than 100 bikers, friends and family members three weeks after a deadly shootout at a restaurant.

Bikers proclaimed their constitutional rights and held signs outside the McLennan County courthouse. Before they parked in front of the court building, they circled the jail and detention center twice.

"We wanted to let the boys know we were here," Sons of Liberty motorcycle club member Mel Robins said. The protest was organized by the club's Dallas chapter.

The Confederation of Clubs and Independents urged members in an email to avoid the protest so as not to "exacerbate what is already a highly charged" situation. That group is the one that organized the May 17 meeting at a Waco Twin Peaks that ended in gunfire.

UN Secretary-General Weighs Lumping Israel In With ISIS And Al Qaeda 

By Anne Bayefsky, Jun. 05, 2015, Fox News

This week Senators Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz have posed a challenge for would-be presidents and all Americans: if the United Nations criminalizes Israel’s exercise of the right of self-defense it will pay a heavy price. The organization has no right to expect billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to be doled out every year when they are spent undercutting our deepest values and our national security.

Graham and Cruz’s comments come after learning that UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is now weighing whether to sign off on a report emanating from an Algerian U.N. “human rights expert” that analogizes Israel to ISIS, Boko Haram and Al Qaeda. Leila Zerrougui’s rights expertise includes eight years (2000-2008) as legal advisor to Algeria’s President-for-life Abdelaziz Bouteflika.

Moreover, in the coming weeks, the U.N. will issue another report on Israel’s “criminal” response to Hamas genocidaires in Gaza, commissioned by UN Human Rights Council authorities like Russia, China and Saudi Arabia.

HRC EMAILS: Federal Officials Voiced Growing Alarm Over Clinton’s Compliance With Records Laws 

By James Rosen, Jun. 3, 2015, Fox News

Over a five-year span, senior officials at the National Archives and Records Administrations (NARA) voiced growing alarm about Hillary Clinton’s record-keeping practices as secretary of state, according to internal documents shared with Fox News.

During Clinton’s final days in office, Paul Wester, the director of Modern Records Programs at NARA – essentially the agency’s chief records custodian – privately emailed five NARA colleagues to confide his fear that Clinton would take her official records with her when she left office, in violation of federal statutes.

Referring to a colleague whose full name is unknown, Wester wrote on December 11, 2012: “Tom heard (or thought he heard) from the Clinton Library Director that there are or may be plans afoot for taking her records from State to Little Rock." That was a reference to the possibility that Clinton might seek to house her records at the Clinton Presidential Center, which was largely funded by the Clinton Foundation.

Clint Eastwood To Make Biopic Of Pilot 'Sully' Sullenberger 

By Associated Press, Jun. 3, 2015

NEW YORK – Clint Eastwood will follow his box-office sensation "American Sniper" with a biopic of pilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger.

Warner Bros. announced Tuesday that Eastwood will direct and produce the not-yet-titled drama as his next film. The film is to be adapted from Sullenberger's 2009 memoir, "Highest Duty: My Search for What Really Matters," which chronicled his personal history before he famously landed a US Airways plane in the Hudson River in New York in 2009.

"I am very glad my story is in the hands of gifted storyteller and filmmaker Clint Eastwood," Sullenberger said in a statement.

Coulter On Us Immigration Policy: ‘Never Has A Country Been Transformed Like This, Never In World History’

By Jeff Poor, Jun. 2, 2015, Breitbart

Monday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Ann Coulter explained to viewers how the findings in her new book, “¡Adios, America! — The Left’s Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole,” show U.S. immigration policy is creating more dire consequences than many may realize, particularly regarding the U.S. welfare and prison systems and how the Obama administration has a disregard for current U.S. immigration law.

Transcript as follows:

HANNITY: Welcome back to “Hannity.” The wait is finally over. Ann Coulter’s brand new book is finally out in bookstores today. It’s on Amazon.com. It’s called “Adios, America — The Left’s Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole.” Here she is, author, bestseller, Ann Coulter. I will tell you this, and people that dismiss you are wrong. They don’t read your books because if they did, this is extraordinarily well-researched. This is a much bigger issue than the southern border, northern border.

ANN COULTER, AUTHOR, “ADIOS, AMERICA”: Right.

HANNITY: And you go into great detail. The cost is enormous, and we have two parties that don’t want to solve the problem. Otherwise, the fence that works at the White House and in gated communities, as you point out, would be built.
