WATTERS: And then they sabotaged the teleprompter. I mean, this is an insurrection. And what we need to do is either leave the UN or we need to bomb it. It is in New York though right?
GUTFELD: Yeah, it is.
WATTERS: Could be some fallout there. Alright, maybe gas it?
DANA PERINO (CO-HOST): Let’s not do that.
WATTERS: Don’t gas it. Okay, but we need to destroy it. Maybe can we demolish the building? Have everybody leave and then we will demolish the building.
For anyone curious. This is terrorism. Specifically “Stochastic Terrorism”
Textbook example. Because there’s a real solid chance some fucking lunatic decides to act on his careless words.
careless words.
There’s nothing careless about this. This is intentional.
WATTERS: And then they sabotaged the teleprompter. I mean, this is an insurrection.
Broken escalator + teleprompter fail = insurrection.
Everything is an insurrection with these idiots.
They just repeat words they’ve heard smarter people use. He has no clue what he just said.
I was thinking of Everything_I_Dont_Like_is_woke.jpg. Has same basic energy.
Starbucks barista got your order wrong? It’s probably because they are woke and they are carrying out an INSURRECTION on you!!!
We’ve moved on. It’s antifa now.
Cashier short changed me! Fucking insurrection that is!
Both things Trump’s team did themselves, by the way.
So much violent rhetoric from the right. And yet the right and their “centrist” boosters keep saying it’s the left that is so hateful and violent.
And yet despite making a specific direct call to violence yet another Fox host will not be held accountable.
Yeah, and my favorite part is that the UN said the White House was responsible for the prompter. So they likely just forgot a flash drive or something dumb
So not only does the host not know what an insurrection is, nor what the UN is apparently, they clearly don’t care at all about anything but spreading hate
They’re intentionally misusing ‘insurrection’ to try to make it seem like NOBODY knows what it is, so that January 6th seems like a hoax or Democratic hot air.
Indeed. These assholes have been doing that ever since J6, really. Everything and anything was an “insurrection”. They’d go apeshit when the media would use that term, even though insurrection is rather neutral, when it’s probably more accurately called terrorism.
One regular commenter on DP would often just post “INSPLURECTION!” as a response since they basically lost their minds that people even in the corporate media were pointing the finger at their movement. They were even touchy about calling them “rioters” - they wanted them to be called “peaceful protesters” who were just “airing their grievances”, LOL. I have a feeling some of the people that were especially upset about it might have been there and weren’t caught (yet).
I think he just wanted a reason to ramble for an hour so he made up the “teleprompter is broken” story replete with threats.
UN headquarters needs to be in Geneva or something, not in one of the 5 nuclear powers. Seriously wtf, this looked biased AF. Like how would the average American feel if UN was located in Moscow or Shanghai?
Somewhere in Switzerland would be a better place for the UN headquarters.
P.S.: That Watters guy is calling for terrorist attacks in New York, what a violent traitor.
So cool to have a New York Republican announce “America needs a second 9/11” like that
It’s complicated. As modern as the building looks today, the UN’s construction and planning began before the nuclear arms race.
The average American thinks those are in Wisconsin.
Well when the UN was founded it was right after a war on European soil. Guess other nations didn’t trust the Europeans after two world wars. Also at the time Europe was the US’s bitch so they didn’t have much influence.
And New York had probably the best infrastructure at the time to safely receive and transport diplomats to the HQ. Because the rest of the world was either still in rubble or didn’t have modern infrastructure.
Ok, what corporations do we need to boycott to get this guy fired?
Edit: Here’s a few as of April Advertisers embrace conservative media in the new Trump era
According to the TV measurement firm iSpot. tv, new blue-chip advertisers appearing on Fox News national linear broadcasts since the election include Gucci, Busch Beer, and Netflix. New advertisers in this analysis were characterized as having not advertised on the channel since 2022. These brands didn’t respond to requests for comment.
Companies including Amazon, GE Vernova, JPMorgan Chase, Netflix and UBS have recently aired advertisements on Fox News for the first time in at least two years.
Oh cool, even more reason to hate JP Morgan. Pedophile protectors always seem to flock together.
Russia
This guy gets it
I’m pretty sure Faux was running in the red for years. The people backing Confederate Pravda view having Faux as an investment that will pay them dividends even if Faux itself were to be in the red. So I don’t think they are really prone to boycotts. I think it’s much the same for hate radio.
It’s too bad that deep-pocketed billionaires don’t do similar things to prop up something similar for progressives. I’ve been told my entire life by conservatives, moderates, and most especially the corporate news outlets themselves, that we are inundated by “liberal media”, but I still have yet to see evidence of such.
Idk I think it’s become pretty clear when something hurts their pockets it’s the only way to force changes.
If they had to give an individual the axe in order to avoid a profit loss, I’m pretty sure they would do it in a heartbeat. Loyalty isn’t really a priority for them, and it’s not like Jesse Watters is America’s sweetheart. He is easily replaceable.
I would say News Corp but no one who isn’t Maga interacts with anything they own anyway so…
The UN doesn’t control the teleprompter. Trump’s team controlled the teleprompter. If someone else had access to it, they could fuck with the speeches and change words and shit. Under normal circumstances, the speech given by the president to the UN would need to be very carefully worded to avoid international incidents. Trump is a walking international catastrophe, so that’s a silly accusation regardless.
I’m Ron Burgundy?
“Fuck you San Diego”
Motherfucker thinks demolishing the building will destroy the UN.
Fucker doesn’t know what insurrection means.
Right? January 6th was not an insurrection but a teleprompter issue is? Dude’s a joke and anyone who sucked that shit up nasty style is dumber than a sack of dirt.
The right are murderous stochastic terrorists and we are the infidels.
So the fcc is going to jump in and demand hes taken off the air right??
And it turned out both of these failures were caused by Trump’s team.
So Trump hires incompetent people (because they are yes men), they fuck up and make him look bad, and the intermediate solution is to kill the people who happened to be near by at the time before there’s any actual information available.
Got it.
The right: “Everything not actually an insurrection that I don’t like is AN INSURRECTION. The actual J6 insurrection? NOT an insurrection, Taco was being just when he set those political prisoners free!”
I can’t decide whether Fox and Friends or The Five is the worst segment on Fox. Seems like they’re in competition for the title. The both of them are technically comedy or even satire segments, but of course they use that as a shield from criticism. “No reasonable person would take this seriously”, just like they argue in court when they get sued for the raw sewage they spew into public discourse.
But “Kill all of the homeless” and “destroy the UN and everyone who’s part of it” are only jokes if you find those actions amusing.
And the “left” is wringing its hands impotently, worried about appearing threatening.
