That's a photoshopped picture of Rinehart supposedly with Ghislaine Maxwell.

These are truly evil people.

During Thursday’s broadcast of Tucker Carlson Tonight, fill-in host Brian Kilmeade mentioned the Florida judge who approved the search warrant used by the FBI to raid Mar-a-Lago on Monday and who has subsequently faced death threats for doing so. During Kilmeade’s commentary, however, a fabricated image of two separate photographs appeared on screen depicting the judge on an airplane receiving a foot massage from convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell. During the handoff to Sean Hannity’s show, Hannity pointed out that the image was digitally altered. “I think that’s actually a picture of Jeffrey Epstein with somebody putting [the judge’s] head on there,” he said. As Snopes pointed out, the judge’s upper body was substituted for Epstein’s. The image credit that Fox News listed is a Twitter user whose handle is @whatimemetosay and who describes themselves as a “meme creator” and “digital art creator,” making the network’s apparent error even less excusable.

1. What is the point of repeating it here?

8. It is good to see more about it than I saw on Twitter earlier...

I was a bit early morning bleary eyed when I saw it, and even with bad eyesight I could see it was the worst bit of photoshopping ever done. Because I was in a rush and needing to get caffeine into me, I quickly responded with a pic of Trump photoshopped onto Rambo holding hands with Epstein and left it at that

2. Photo in subsequent tweet shows Epstein was the man in picture.

Looks like Kilmeade is trying to get Judge Reinhart killed. There's no excuse for that kind of irresponsible behavior.

3. Fox News, bottom feeding scum.

4. Seems like his stuttering was a result of him thinking: DAMN

I'd REALLY love to have Ghislaine stroke my feet while her boobs are hanging out like that ...

Then he realized he had to pull it together for the sake of the audience.

6. i happened to have seen the show and it made me laugh because

Hannity quickly disavowed the picture saying it was photoshopped.

10. Hannity corrected it?!

I remember seeing Hannity with Bill Cunningham, anti-liberal radio propagandist, on Fox many years ago. Even Hannity looked shocked by the vitriol coming from Cunningham's mouth. (But later, Hannity's expression gradually changed to admiration, and he was indeed more of a liar and instigator of chaos thereafter.)

7. Hmm...

... Brian is going for the Tucker audience. He actually outdoes Tucker with this little stunt. Maybe he's planning to sell pillows or sleeping pills?
