Fox's Brian Kilmeade Shuts Down Co-Host for Saying U.S. 'Provoked' Russia

An exasperated Brian Kilmeade was forced to rebut Fox & Friends co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy on Tuesday after the ex-star of MTV’s The Real World: San Francisco repeatedly insisted that the U.S. “provoked” Russia into a war with Ukraine.

With Fox News drawing recent backlash for some of its stars pushing Kremlin-friendly commentary and pro-Putin talking points, Campos-Duffy took it upon herself Tuesday morning to suggest that Russia is somehow not the actual aggressor in its full-scale invasion of its sovereign neighbor.

Filling in for regular Fox & Friends host Ainsley Earhardt, Campos-Duffy repeatedly claimed that Russia’s “red line” was the possibility of Ukraine becoming a member of NATO, suggesting that the U.S. had brought this upon Ukraine by considering expanding the alliance.

“We did not provoke the war,” an irritated Kilmeade shot back. “They provoked war.”

They want this to go away as much as anyone. It’s quite interesting to watch.

a man she met on another reality TV series, she pops out babies like a rabbit, she became a FOX news propagandist and she loves her some Trump. So why does anyone care what Rachel spews out? Rachel is a bag of garbage, like Trump, like Putin.
