Fox's Brian Kilmeade: Why Doesn't President Trump 'Run a Private Investigation Into Adam Schiff?'

[DonViejo]

Fox & Friends addressed investigations into President Donald Trump and brought on Fox News Chief Legal Analyst Andrew Napolitano to provide insight into the growing list of investigations into Trump, his personal business, his family, his inauguration and his administration.

The pro-Trump morning show typically takes the view that these investigations are “presidential harassment,” and in this segment co-host Brian Kilmeade simply asked why President Trump doesn’t investigate Trump’s political rivals, Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Maxine Waters? “How did they become rich?”

Earlier Thursday morning, Trump had tweeted about what he clearly sees as a “witch hunt” posting on the social media platform that “after having found zero Russian Collusion, that he is going to be looking at every aspect of my life, both financial and personal, even though there is no reason to be doing so. Never happened before! Unlimited Presidential Harassment…” and eventually adding Dems are going “Nuts.”

Co-host Ainsley Earhardt amplified that idea with “This is never going to end. We are two years into the administration at the continuation of investigation after investigation.”

1. Holy fucking shit. nt

[Botany]

2. Brian Kilmeade is still shocked on how the 'fridge knows how to turn the light on when the door ....

.... opens, how the toast just pops up when it is done, and why Steve Doocey is
just so damn smart.

Zero collusion?

COLLUSION IN PLAIN SIGHT

37 Indictments.
7 Guilty Pleas.
100+ Contacts.

25. and yet, he has a radio show on hundreds of stations around the country

like my dad used to say; "He couldn't get piss out of a boot if the directions were on the bottom"

[Botany]

33. And a large % of the people who watch and or listen to him have no clue that he is just a ...

.... vacuous highly paid liar.

[dalton99a]

3. "Big League Politics, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find something very bad and impure

and make him resign"

[Hortensis]

20. Exactly. Trolling for assassins.

[gratuitous]

4. It takes an uncommon mind to think of things like this!

Absolutely brilliant, Brian! Maybe Trump could use the same investigators who found all that incredible, unbelievable stuff in Hawaii about Obama's birth certificate? Say, whatever happened to those guys? Whitman, Price and Haddad, if memory serves.

[LakeSuperiorView]

22. +3 for The Running Man reference

[gratuitous]

23. Kilmeade, Killian, the mind is a mysterious place

I wondered if anyone would get it.

[LakeSuperiorView]

24. Had not noticed the K/K, nicley done.

IIRC, Whitman, Price and Haddad were in Hawaii. It was set in 2017.

What I've never been able to figure out is what the hell is Sven's sole line near the end of the movie. Killian says " What's the matter? Steroids make you deaf?" And Sven says something in a mumbled, heavy accent before turning his back and walking away... Not a clue.

[gratuitous]

27. I had no idea

I haven't seen the movie for years, though I sort-of remembered the scene. Looked it up on You Tube:

[LakeSuperiorView]

28. Thank you!!!

[standingtall]

6. Not surprised faux news endorses Trumps counter investigation fantasies

Next Kilmeade will be promoting Trumps dream of republican senators investigating democratic congress members. In which the Democratic congress could just in return investigate U.S. Senators and then state attorney generals could just investigate either in retaliation which would result in the end of the union.

7. I'm sure the Russians are diligently working

to hack into Schiff's electronic devices as well as devices of his staff.

[dubyadiprecession]

8. Tell it to the judge.

“Your honor, It’s not fair that your harassing me, by holding me accountable for treason based on factual evidence”.

[Initech]

9. What has Adam Schiff done to warrant an investigation other than being a Democrat?

This is political terrorism.

[liberalnarb]

11. Or just boundless stupidity.

[Initech]

12. i say it's a combination of both.

[liberalnarb]

10. Kilmeade is dumber than a pile of dog shit.

Him and Steve Douchey are unbearable.

[bobbieinok]

13. Like GOP operative did vs BillClinton, starting when he was still governor?

See Joe Conason and Gene Lyons book The Hunting of the President

[DemocratSinceBirth]

14. Kilmeade is an idiot.

[yuiyoshida]

15. This!

Still i think Tucker Carlson is pretty bad as well.. I can't stand Fox Network, Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity...all of them have contributed to the Republican Brain washing of the American People.. that 32% who think Trump can do Nothing Wrong. Meh!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. Schiff seems like an honest person.

I suspect an investigation of him would turn up nothing.

[yuiyoshida]

17. what it will turn up is the waste

of American Tax Payers dollars...something that seems to be in short supply of late.

[smirkymonkey]

18. I'm sure it would turn up nothing, but the whole point of investigating him

would be to harass and annoy him. Just another one of their dirty tricks to get back at any Democrat who dares to question them.

[greymattermom]

26. He once made a bad joke

in middle school. Or something like that.

[OliverQ]

19. At what point does Fox stop becoming free speech and start being a national security threat?

Shut them down.

[2naSalit]

21. They are a danger to the nation....nt

[Grasswire2]

30. can't shut them down

First amendment.

There would be a shooting war.

[Grasswire2]

29. This is what Trump meant by "war" in his SOTU

An attack on the separation of powers.

An all-out attack on the Constitution itself.

[Caliman73]

31. Keep digging idiots.

Walking right into the Nixon trap. Please do order an investigation into Schiff. That is what sunk Nixon.

[TheRealNorth]

32. What's another charge of Obstruction of Justice?

You would have to convince 20 Republican senators to convict. On the other hand, if they get the Dems to back off they can get away with their crimes and come election time would walk around like the accusations were nothing.

[underpants]

34. Hes just planting the seed in believers heads. Don't be surprised if you hear this again

from another RW dolt. Repetition works.

Their guy is reeling so they go on the offensive.
I’d be surprised not to see memes about this on Facebook soon.
