Last week Sean Hannity dedicated an entire pre-taped episode to bashing President Biden. The network also remembered Trump existed and decided recent polling proved he would trounce Biden.

Fox News spent an inordinate amount of time on a Country music story. The network was still obsessed with Hunter Biden and a small bag of cocaine that was found in the White House.

I make fun of Donald Trump Jr. and his illustrious fiancee. Rachel Campos-Duffy brings the crazy as she claims that NATO paid the Wagner group while K.T.
