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.
So the fcc is going to jump in and demand hes taken off the air right??
I dont know who that is, but hes going to jail. Or at least, he fucking should be.
And just like the dude that said we should kill the homeless. Nothing will happen.
Hear me out. “The boys” isn’t a parody on the US. It’s the other way around.
Ok, but please don’t let AOC be based on congresswoman Neuman, fooling everyone. That thought is way too bleak.
Again, why is it ok for rightwing people to openly call for violence using their public platforms?
Other groups can not and do not do this in US politics, why are rightwing people the only ones allowed to do this?
I don’t think anybody should speak this callously and invoke specific targeted violence with such carelessness, just because Jesse Watters doesn’t understand or care about the consequences of his words spoken on a large public platform doesn’t mean he isn’t increasing the likelihood of actual violent acts by saying what he does.
edit I mean really, it would be one thing to sit around a firepit with your drinking buddies and throw something this disgusting out of your mouth and laugh about it, which I still find disgusting and lame, but we are talking about saying these words as a prominent public figure which makes it that much more a damning commitment to bigotry.
Because they’re fascists and fascists currently control our government.
The proper response is to arm yourself and help everyone you know arm themselves.
Twatters is a terrorist.
This guy needs to be charged and imprisoned.
so where is Brendan Carr and his threats?
Jesse Watters is a fascist and a terrorist, his fuhrer’s own people fucked up the teleprompter and he’s calling for mass murder of allies and civilians over it.
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…
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.
The U.N. headquarters must be moved out of that joke of a country.
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”
This is not the sweet onion of satire. This is the strong garlic of reality.
Hey… I happen to like garlic. This is more like the stinky smell of durian fruit
Same here. Garlic is awesome.
Oh I like garlic too! Just, it’s stronger!
Tough guy lol
