Summary
Fox News reporter Chad Pergram challenged Speaker Mike Johnson for blaming Democrats for a potential government shutdown over funding bill opposition.
After Johnson claimed Democrats would be “responsible for every troop who misses a paycheck” if they reject his “clean CR,” Pergram pointed out this implies Republicans lack sufficient votes.
Johnson insisted “we’ll have the votes” despite reports that House Republicans plan to vote against the bill, claiming Democrats should “do the responsible thing.”
That’s what’s so scary about this beast Murdoch and co have created. They thought they could pump out fake news for decades and people would believe whatever they wanted, allowing them to control the narrative.
It worked for a while, but then others realized how gullible the Fox News crowd was - and saw they could go even further into the crazy. Fox News now is basically in a spot where they have no choice but to push crazier shit than they actually want to. If they say the 2020 election wasn’t stolen, their viewers jump ship to someone who will tell them that it was.
