Fox News Reacts to Trump-Xi Meeting as Scrutiny Grows

The transcript criticizes Fox News and its hosts—such as Laura Ingraham, Jessie Waters, and Monica Crowley—for promoting a misleading, celebratory narrative of a lavish state dinner between Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Despite their typical anti-Communist rhetoric, these media figures openly praise the event as "epic" and "amazing," highlighting U.S. economic dominance and diplomatic strength. This portrayal stands in stark contrast to the real economic hardships faced by American citizens, including record-high fuel prices, rising mortgage rates, and loss of healthcare access. The narrative is further undermined by absurd and out-of-context details—like guests allegedly dining with tech billionaires and refusing to let a host hold a drink in a photo—exposing what critics see as a deliberate hypocrisy. The hosts downplay the suffering of ordinary Americans, framing the event as a sign of a "golden age" while ignoring the costs of the Trump administration’s policies. Critics argue that this behavior reflects a broader pattern of media complicity in normalizing ties with authoritarian regimes while attacking democratic values. The inclusion of inappropriate and distasteful questions about gender and identity during the segment raises serious concerns about the ethical standards and political bias of state-regime media. The piece ultimately serves as a sharp critique of how mainstream propaganda distorts reality to serve elite narratives, often at the expense of public accountability and truth.

state regime media which calls itself Fox News was panicking on live TV. They realize how devastating it was for Donald Trump to show to the entire world what a CCP and Xi Jinping bootlicker that he really is Donald Trump rolled out the red carpet for she had our military person now get down on their knees to roll out that red carpet and wipe off the whole world. The dirt with their hands before Xi Jinping descended the stairs and then Donald Trump held a lavish state dinner while the American people are suffering paying record high diesel and gas prices while the 30 year fixed mortgage is 7.5% and rising while the American people can afford groceries and had their healthcare ripped away by the Trump regime and Donald Trump declares a golden age Donald Trump held this life. The lavish state dinner in the White House with Xi he said how respected you are Xi in the United States and I can't wait till we build the ballroom. You're going to love the ballroom and guess who else was there at the state dinner. The Fox propaganda from Jessie Waters to Laura Ingraham to Brett Baer and others and where they usually start their monologue on their shows rallying against communism and how communists have taken over the democratic party and they're coming to get you. It was a little bit different yesterday instead they said it was so damn cool that we went to the party with Trump and the CCP I got to take a photo with Xi it was absolutely epic and then I was hanging out like in the hotel with Zuckerberg and Cook and some of these other oligarchs and it was just so amazing man. Yeah and she looked at me and he was like hey Jessie and I was like hey she and I was like hey can you take a picture of all of us together I was telling that to Hegs that I'm like can you take a picture hold my drink and Hegs is like I can't hold your drink must be so nice right must be so fun with these deck of millionaires and billionaires all hanging out while the American people are getting absolutely screwed right now by this regime and their propagandists. No wonder the latest Wall Street Journal poll has Donald Trump's approval at 37% and as the Wall Street Journal says Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped to 37% the lowest of any president heading into the midterm elections in the Wall Street Journal poll dating back to 1990. Let me show you what went down on state regime media Fox who had Laura Ingraham who attended the Xi Jinping dinner and she says alright you all know like I don't like the CCP but I gotta be honest

cash.app/legal/podcast for full disclosures I've just been going through some of these posts of these freaking phonies like Rachel campus Duffy Sean Duffy the Transportation Secretary's wife she's a host on Fox and you shall say things like this the left is reacting in the way they are not because they are Maduro sympathizers they are Maduro they are communist the left is communist as we wrote on the Midas Touch Network these freaking traders these phony losers they rail against communism they rail against the CCP on TV all damn day but the second they get a chance to party with the CCP they jump on it and they post videos like it's their wedding night I can't play the audio here because it's copyright and music but Rachel campus Duffy posted this I mean these people these dirt bags these gangsters they're giving us the middle finger you realize that right they hate us these fox propagandists these oligarchs Rachel campus Duffy says I still remember Remember date night in Wisconsin in the early years, Walmart and dairy queen. And it's her and Sean Duffy from the real world road rules challenge who's the transportation secretary who's absolutely awful of it, awful out of the job. And they're like, partying and showing us how amazing this lavish party is. And it's like, do you realize what the American people are experiencing right now? Do you realize that the American people have to decide very frequently? Are they going to go to the doctor to get chemo treatment, or are they going to be able to afford food? You realize the decisions that Americans have to make because of the Trump regime and the catastrophic war and the trade war against the world and the disastrous budget bill, y'all call a big, beautiful bill, which has been an utter disaster. Monica Crowley who used to be a Fox host who now has this ambassadorship title. You know, she would post things like communism is the enemy of July 4th, 1776, President Trump at Mount Rushmore tonight, look at her posting photos like this, state dinner hosted by President Trump in First Lady Melania for the president of the People's Republic of China. She's shingping. And Madam Peng Leon is so beautiful. Look at these pictures in front of the Chinese flag, America first, America first, more from Jesse Waters. He's like, so they wanted to take a picture. And I said, Hegsith, Hegsith, hold my drink and Hegsith's like, yo, bro, man, I can't hold you. Drink. People are going to think that I drink. I can't be doing that. Really? I mean, you Hegsith are a frickin war criminal who deserves to be tried in the Hague. And this whole scene that you're describing, do you realize how damn offensive? I don't care what political party you're from. If you're a Democrat, a liberal and independent, a conservative, a MAGA, you think this shit is fun. You think this stuff is funny? You think the, this fox that you think what I'm obscuring you right here, the defense secretary partying with Jesse Waters and they're all partying with the CCP and they're saying they're laughing in our frickin' faces here. Play this clip. Right. So then we go in there. This is kind of embarrassing. They want to take pictures. And I turn around and I said, Hegsith, can you hold my drink? Because I don't want to like, yeah, have a drink and a picture and he's like, I can't be seen holding a drink. Jesse Waters wasn't done telling the story. I stayed at the same hotel as Tim Cook. He said, you know, and we were, I was like, great job and he was like, great job Tucker. Okay. You're play this clip. So I stayed at the same hotel as Tim Cook, the guy at Apple and I walk out of my room and he's walking out and I see him. I'm like, oh, congratulations on all your success. He shakes man. He goes, you too, Tucker. No need to know. He's good around. And then Laura Ingraham says, though, but look, it's okay that we brag about our party with Xi because really with the exception of the ongoing frustration with Iran and energy costs, if you take away all of the energy costs and the war and how expensive things are and cost of living, if you just ignore that, our policies are working, man. Trump's policies are working, she says here, play this clip. Meanwhile, with the exception of the ongoing frustration with Iran and energy costs, Trump's policies are working. His biggest economic problem aside again from gas prices is that the economy is actually running too hot. And then she says she goes, so standing side by side with President Xi and our President, it's so clear that we have the upper hand and we just have to make sure we don't give away needless concessions here, play this clip. So standing side by side with President Xi, our President has the upper hand and Xi knows it. The only thing that could stop our momentum is giving away needless concessions to China or giving away the Congress to the Democrats. All right. Let's bring in a guest by the way and then this guest, Zakaria, she's like, okay, okay. And by the way, Obama, ask Obama what a woman is and let's ask Obama about penis and vagina. This is what we do on state regime. Let's ask Barack Obama, penis, huh? I mean, what do you guys talking, I mean, there are so many things going on. Does he even know what a woman is? These are like sick, these are some sickos. These are some real fucking sickos. You're going to play this clip. Katie Zakaria, political analyst, Katie, great to see you. The person we left off for some reason is Michelle Obama, of course. And we've known that, you know, they can, they have a fun kind of back and forth together, but do you honestly think Barack Obama sat around as he said, fantasizing about women in charge of government, really? Absolutely. And, Lord, we have to go back to his entire term. This president, this man has never for us defined what a woman is and his administration was quite hostile towards biological women. He said, he basically undid Title IX, you can go into any bathroom you want depending on what gender you identify as and you can play in men and can play in women's sports. So I want to first ask, what is a woman, Barack Obama, and what are you going to, who are you going to put up as a woman? What if it's a man who identifies as a woman, why? It's a birthing person for president. There, there, there, you have it. The hell is going on. Hit subscribe. Let's get to five, six, seven, eight. Let's get to eight million subscribers.
