The Fat Orange Clown is upset with the Ham about his text to Meadows and others on the fascist staff. He may have to fight on his knees with Pence and McCarthy for the best position to kiss the FOCer’s royal…

Just a technical note here. Deleting your texts, doesn’t guarantee they’ve been erased. It means you can’t access then from your mobile. They’re probably sitting on a server somewhere. That’s why, when i’m committing a felonious act, i never use texts.
There’s enough evidence to charge the orange Sir lies a Lot…get this shit over with… he’s a detriment to our country and democracy! All his Liars- in -Cahoots need to be charged also! Treason is the reason!
Hannity has always been pretty damn stupid in addition to being completely dishonest. No, it doesn’t take brains to be a successful con artist: a person merely has to be slightly less of an imbecile than his victims. Hannity is slightly less of an imbecile than his followers are. (Same thing, obviously, with con artist and cult leader Traitor Trump.)
I tuned in Faux last night just to see their spin on January 6. They all called the commemoration “ hysteria” and showed highly selected clips of the few non-violent moments to “prove” it was a peaceful event.
They have already used the “FOX News isn’t news, it’s entertainment” as a legal defense in court to defend against all the lies and slander they promulgate every night.
Fine – they are entertainment. And entertainers can be subpoenaed and don’t get special 1st Amendment protection afforded to real journalists!
Hannity is an American talk show host and conservative political commentator, not a reporter and should do what he preaches, and testify. Liz Cheney said it best, the sooner we get all the information, the sooner we can get this done, and learn from it so it doesn’t happen again, we can then move on.
A Journalist will expose what he knows in the reporting. If what Hannity said on his show is the opposite of what he knows, he’s definitely NOT a journalist and shouldn’t get the protections thereof.
Neither Hannity nor Rachel Maddow—or Tucker or Lawrence…—are journalists. They’re political commentators who do almost no original news reporting. That’s fine. That means that they draw assessments (opinions, judgments, etc.) on others’ assertions of fact. So, I don’t hold them to the same standard as journalists, nor should they be given the same First Amendment deferential treatment.
Tucker Carlson’s beatdown of Ted Cruz revealed something sinister about the right: columnist
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) was forced to beg forgiveness from Tucker Carlson for referring to the Jan. 6 insurrection as an act of terror, and his debasement reveals the dark heart of the current conservative movement.
The Texas Republican endured a ritual humiliation as penance, but Washington Post columnist Greg Sargent explained that the “absurd saga” revealed how far away from reality and democratic norms the Republican Party had been pulled by right-wing extremists.
“The valorization and mythologizing of Jan. 6, which Carlson traffics heavily in — indeed, this led to the resignation of two Fox contributors — require erasing the degree to which it constituted a genuine effort to thwart a legitimately elected Democratic government from taking power, an effort to fundamentally subvert our constitutional arrangements,” Sargent wrote. “Cruz’s real sin in Carlson’s eyes appears to be that he lent support to that broader narrative.”
“This is the landing point Carlson really wanted: Not that it’s wrong to generally call people who assault police officers ‘terrorists,’ but that it’s wrong to call right-wingers who assault police officers ‘terrorists,’” Sargent wrote. “The latter, after all, serves those who would depict Jan. 6, and the procedural election subversion leading up to it, as at bottom an effort to overturn our political order.”
GOP lawmakers and conservative media valorize the Capitol rioters as patriots while portraying Black Lives Matter and other leftist demonstrators as threats to civilization itself, and Carlson’s public abuse of a sitting senator revealed the right’s true agenda.
“As long as Cruz is calling the left ‘terrorists’ in service of this broader ideological project, he’ll remain in Carlson’s good graces,” Sargent wrote. "But when Cruz starts applying this label to the alleged right-wing attackers of police officers on Jan. 6, he must be disciplined.
MAGA rioter wants to subpoena Trump, Giuliani and Bannon and asks for US Marshals’ help if needed
Via Politico’s Kyle Cheney, an attorney representing January 6th defendant Dustin Thompson revealed on Friday that his client “intends to subpoena numerous witnesses involved in the planning and execution of the attempt to disrupt the certification of the 2020 presidential election.”
Included among those were the aforementioned Trump, Giuliani, and Bannon, as well as attorneys including John Eastman, Sidney Powell, and Lin Wood.
“Considering the significant roles these witnesses play in the legal and political communities, and the evasiveness that some have historically shown in the face of court orders, Defendant submits that appointment of the U.S. Marshals Service is necessary in order to effectuate his right to compulsory process and ensure that the same is accomplished expeditiously,” the filing states.

It would be interesting to hear what he has to say, but they are delirious if they think he’ll volunteer any information.

Not a real journalist. Just pretends to be one on TV.

He should be glad to talk, since he will want them to get to truth about Jan 6. They say the truth will set you free.

Hannity is not a journalist, he is a commentator, and not a very good one. Unless, lying nonstop counts.

FOX News can’t have it both ways.
They have already used the “FOX News isn’t news, it’s entertainment” as a legal defense in court to defend against all the lies and slander they promulgate every night.
Fine – they are entertainment. And entertainers can be subpoenaed and don’t get special 1st Amendment protection afforded to real journalists!

Hannity is a confederate republican traitor who is part of the right wing conspiracy to over throw the United States.
