Why is Fox News in a live‑on‑air meltdown over the Iran strike?

Ben Meiselas 0:00
State regime media known as Fox was in full meltdown mode as it becomes even more clear that Donald Trump's strikes on the Iranian nuclear facilities were a failure. Donald Trump continues to spiral out of control saying, if you call the operation a failure, you are attacking our brave fighter pilots and they are getting very sad. Do not make our fighter pilots sad. So now the propagandists on state regime media known as Fox are out there saying, you know, Donald Trump's our daddy and daddy is home and daddy is never wrong. Daddy, daddy. They keep on saying daddy over and over again. That's why they're state regime media. They're weird. And it is a sickness over there. Watch Fox propagandist Jesse Waters play this clip.

The question is,
Jesse Waters 0:53
who's daddy going to negotiate with? Fox and Friends Weekend co-host Charlie Hurt joins us now. So did daddy do it or did daddy do it?
Charlie Hurt 1:03
Yeah, you know, it's funny. For years, we used to talk about the Democrat and the Republican parties as being the Democrat party was the mommy party and the Republican party was the daddy party. And something happened over the last 10 or 15 years where all of it fell apart. But like you said, daddy's home. The Republican Party is back to being the daddy party. He gets things done. It's not always pretty. Sometimes he has to raise his voice and yell at people, but he gets things done. And I think the American people are clearly down for

it. Then they had on Kevin McCarthy, who also said, he's our daddy. Trump's daddy, Daddy Trump. Here, play this clip.
Dr. Mark Siegel 1:43
First of all, the Democrats said, he's going to blow up the NATO alliance. How many times when you were speaker did you hear them say that?
Unknown 1:49
This is all they said. But when you talk to the foreign leaders, they love President Trump. They want to be around him. If you watch their faces, I mean, you didn't play this clip. You know what they called him? Again,
Ben Meiselas 2:02
if you watch that and think that that is not weird, there are some serious problems and self-introspection that is needed. We are a nation of laws, not dictators and not daddies. The hell is that? Then you had on Jesse Waters, and this was kind of a constant drumbeat that they had on Fox and that Jesse Waters was saying, is that the people who leaked the classified information regarding the fact that the military operations in Iran was not successful, they're treasonous.

How does Donald Trump react when the Iran operation is called a failure?

Ben Meiselas 2:39
They should be killed. Death penalty. Death to them. Watch this. Play this clip.
Charlie Hurt 2:45
What we're talking about here is, and I get why a reporter tries to get this stuff, whatever, and she's a moron. She doesn't know what she's talking about, shouldn't characterize, but I get why they want to get this sort of stuff. The real question is, who was it inside the administration, inside the government, that leaked it? And if you don't believe in the deep state after this, then you've lost your mind. This is the definition of the deep state. A wartime leak of very sensitive, confidential information, it is treason.
Ben Meiselas 3:20
And if you think I'm exaggerating, here's a social media post by Jesse Waters literally calling for the death penalty right there. Oh, by the way, you turn to Fox's other top propagandist, Laura Ingraham, and she was reeling and really upset that Zoran Mondami beat Andrew Cuomo. And so what she was saying is Laura Ingraham, right? Fox is really for the people. This is what they say. I'm being sarcastic. They're saying we need the rich people to come together. Rich people. You got to stop Mondami. You got to stop him. Here, play this clip.
Dr. Mark Siegel 3:56
So unless unless rich New Yorkers band together, donate a lot of money and create a groundswell for a viable alternative to Mondami. another great American city is going to swirl down the drain. And when it does, the rest of us should not be on the hook to bail it out. This is their decision. This is their choice.
Ben Meiselas 4:16
What in the world is that? Then you have the Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch. And Todd Blanch also talks about criminal liability. And if this was a member of Congress who leaked it, we're going to have to go after them.
