If They Finish It ‘Democrats Will Rule Our Nation Without end’
Maria Bartiromo, a Fox Business and Fox News host who falsely claimed that President Donald Trump won the November election according to an “Intel source”, will be among six rotating hosts as Fox News expands its nightly extremist opinion show lineup 7 p.m. hour. Fox is postponing its “Straight News” show “The Story with Martha MacCallum” to 3pm.
“Maria Bartiromo has been the source of some of the most destructive conspiracy theories at Fox Business and Fox News … especially in the last few months,” tweeted Yashar Ali, a New York magazine and HuffPost freelance journalist who has published major stories about public figures Media and politics.
“But what is Fox going to do … fire them?” he added. “They allowed her to book guests like Sidney Powell.”
Powell is the pro-Trump conspiracy theorist lawyer sued for alleged defamation by the voting machine maker Dominion for $ 1.3 billion.
Senior Washington Post political reporter Aaron Blake noted that Bartiromo “has spent the past two months unquestionably emulating Trump’s election fraud allegations.”
“She also recently quoted an unnamed ‘Intel source who told me that President Trump actually won the election.'”
Bartiromo actually claimed last month that Trump actually won, according to an “Intel source,” which is wrong. Here is a video of that false claim:

Daily Beast media reporter Max Tani adds, “If I were Trish Regan I would be pretty upset that I was ousted from Fox because of a little COVID conspiracy theory while Maria Bartiromo spent months entertaining electoral fraud theories and one Get promotion! ”
Vox’s Aaron Rupar notes that “Bartiromo leaves Trump unpunished” in this late November clip, but that claim actually applies to most of Trump’s appearances with Bartiromo.

Last August, Bartiromo lied and told President Trump that there was a “coup” against him.
“There was still a coup against you!” Maria Bartiromo tells Trump. (Narrator: There was no coup against him)
“The fact was that President Obama knew everything. Vice President Biden, as stupid as he may be, he knew everything, ”replies Trump. pic.twitter.com/DlAICqV43U
