by Ken Meyer | 12:06 pm, June 5th, 2018
During Newt Gingrichs appearance today on The View, the former House Speaker more or less conceded that Fox News marches to the beat of President Trumps drum.
As part of an appearance to promote his newest book, the former House Speaker (and current Fox News contributor) was challenged by the ladies about Trumps tendency to attack the media while lying on a regular basis. Gingrich defended the president by recycling Kellyanne Conways line about alternative facts, while saying that POTUS doesnt have to be obedient to the press just because of First Amendment freedoms.
Fox is obedient to him though, Joy Behar said.
Fox is relatively obedient, Gingrich responded laughing after Behar called the network state-run.
Interesting insight, Mr. Speaker.

The one person investigating who got pushed back by the 9 suprpeme court judges????
Newt complaining about the cost of Muellers investigation no one brought up whitewater or Beneghazi. No indictments in either and they both cost a lot more.
I was real disappointed by the ladies on the view. I was shouting at my TV for one of them to speak up. My husband loves watching the View with me whens he homes. I will watch this with him again tonight and see if he starts screaming like I did at the TV.
Benghazi $20.5+

Whitewater and BJ gate $80 billion+

And dont get me started on Hillary faux email story. No indictments no wrongdoing proved.
Every time I see Newt I want to slap the smile off his priggish face!
