How can American citizens vote for this. NEVER EVER VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN EVER AGAIN. LOOK AT WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO YOUR DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. THE PINACLE OF WHAT IT US TO BE AN AMERICAN. YOUR SAFETY. THE DEPARTMENT FOR VICTIMS AND THOSE WHO ARE MISTREATED. NOW MORE CORRUPT THAN ANY MOB BOSS.

You’re delusional. They’re building concentration camps in every state. They’re gonna shoot you in the face like they shot the mom they don’t give a shit about rule of law. They have taken over your country and that’s your choice. Live their way or die.

Was never democrats or liberals who put nazi flags on our name. Was never democrats or liberals defaming the entire La Fayette bloodline to turn religious extremists against the spirit of liberty. That is allllll maga. And I would love an attorney to help bring back honor to our name by suing gop

They have a demographic of viewers who have this blaring ALL DAY. They used to have it blaring in the break room where my husband works. Used to. 🤔 And the loud mouths are no longer loud. They know. They won't admit it but they know.

The people who were under attack that day voted twice against even investigating what happened. I just can't get over that. They voted not to investigate. There were 11 hearings about Bengazi, and they voted against looking into January 6. They still have their jobs.

Nobody should vote for Republicans in November. They cannot be trusted to take care of their constituents.Elected Republicans serve trump snd his regime.

Trump has thoroughly raped & fucked the country, destroyed federal institutions, fired hundreds of thousands of workers & has desecrated the symbol of American Democracy with his crypto currency scams, his greed, corruption and the destruction of the East Wing, the White House and its grounds.

I’m surprised Fox News (a.k.a. the main Republican state propaganda machine) would broadcast this speech documenting the racist corruption of the Trump regime and its weaponized DoJ. The SPLC is an organization that fights for civil rights. This lawsuit against the #SPLC is pure #racist 💩.

But I’ll add that it gives me hope to see this broadcast on Fox News. It may be that they are waking up to the reality that they will lose any remaining shred of credibility if they don’t start exposing the obvious #corruption everyone else sees. But still expect more lies & half truths from them.

Am I remembering correctly that FOX has never shown actual footage of January 6th and continues to act like that day has been misrepresented and that those people really were falsely imprisoned? If so, I’m wondering if they are counting on their audience thinking these are lies?

This is good stuff & all But, why aren't we turning their linguistic slurs on them by constantly comparing the power being weilded by these super villain "unelected bureaucrats" to the Civil servants they fired for "wielding too much power" by doing the same work they did under all presidents?

This seems like they will air a special where they refute point by point every crime Raskin laid out in some kind of round table format! With wattles & bubba O’reily yuking it up while jennie pizzyairo has a spitting fit‼️🤔😳🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fox hasn't been the unalloyed Trump marketing agent this time around. And now they are probably preparing for midterms that will be disastrous for the GOP, and they can see the whiplash that will follow in 2029. Perhaps the Murdochs (who should be denaturalized) are having a Scrooge moment?

Maybe FOX Propaganda "News" will realize that CBS is the "New lying bullshitter of fake news" and start growing brains? doubt it...but...Hey...really..would you be that surprised?? These days...really...never know...🙃

Love to see it! Now if only @CNN @MSNBC and other "liberal' corporate media would broadcast events with journalistic integrity, i.e the ICC hearings outlining their case against Israel. Seems like kind of a big thing not to cover, no?

Respectfully, he’s an amazing representative and does wonders for our district locally. I could care less about what people outside of MoCo think about him. Very proud to be a constituent.

I wish folks would stop acting like all of Trump’s followers are low IQ knuckle-draggers. Members of my extended family support Trump, and they are not stupid. Some are college educated, some run businesses. Deluded and duped, yes. Stupid, no.

Respectfully, if someone is too dumb to understand what Raskin in saying here, they probably already captured by the right wing information bubble anyway. They respond only to culture war shiny objects and false patriotism. Raskin doesn’t need to speak less intellectually to appease republicans.

Agreed. I’m so sick of these dipshits parroting the Fascist tactic called “Bothsidesism” for more than a decade. I’m also completely done with them being the SAME STUPID PEOPLE who shouted down the Truth tellers about Trump and the compromised/complicit GOP in 2016, calling them “over reacting”.

Section 4 of the 14th Amendment went without support and defense and now Jamie Raskin complains about what he did not do when he should have bar the seditious conspiracy from coming back into office to pay off the foot soldiers.

Wonder if the entire control room at Fox News was completely fired after allowing this? State-sponsored propaganda networks like Fox News rarely make this kind of "mistake".

Oh... I get it. Fox is airing this to 'prove' to their audience that the Dems are 'out to get the most important and transparent POTUS in US history. The man who's been most prosecuted for NOTHING ever in our history.'

What a shame his credibility is destroyed by his eager complicity in Nazi Netanyahu’s genocide, sadism, apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and racism. No Dem gets a pass for supporting fascists. Primary the SOB. It’s the Rethuglican brand. We expect Dems to have a stronger moral compass.

Would have been more effective if Raskin had used only words a typical Fox News viewer can understand. "Orwellian," "Kafkaesque," and "Excoriated" are way above their reading level...

Polls are showing Dump approval in the low thirties, in other words the KKK element in his base is all that’s left. Maybe Fox saw those polls too.

Fox News paid a record-breaking settlement of $787.5 million to ⁠Dominion Voting Systems on April 18, 2023 for repeating Trump's election fraud lies. They're pretty much done with him.

I don’t know about that. I came across someone who voted for Trump last week and his cousin was at January 6. In front of the other contractors he flat out said he was duped and they were all pretty angry over how much Trump and his family have gained in personal profits since the election.

They voted for self indulgent lying con men aimed at self wealth improvement while sacrificing the nation & corrupting the government. Being duped only reflects the lack of awareness, up front and mindful thought given to their vote. Good they have a “little angry” but that’s too late now…

Surprised Fox would air Rep Raskin’s opening statement, but wonders never cease. Maybe this will turn a few Fox viewer heads in the truthful direction.
