Screaming Hannity kicks off Tennessee State Senator Justin Jones for mocking Trump - Pondering Politics



MAGA Fox News host Sean Hannity got triggered into a screaming match and abruptly cut off his guest, Democratic Tennessee State Senator Justin Jones, after he mocked Trump one too many times.

Key Points:

- The Confrontation: Hannity attempted to press Jones about violent crimes committed by undocumented immigrants in Tennessee, but Jones repeatedly deflected by bringing up Donald Trump's associations with Jeffrey Epstein and convicted criminals.

- Jones's Strategy: Rather than accepting Hannity's framing, Jones accused the host of using fear tactics to distract from corporate exploitation of Americans. He argued that ICE operations amount to "kidnapping" and that most targeted immigrants (70%) have no criminal convictions.

- Hannity's Response: Hannity became increasingly agitated as Jones refused to answer his questions about crime victims and instead turned the conversation to Trump's connections with sex offenders and criminals at Mar-a-Lago.

- The Ending: The segment ended prematurely with both men talking over each other, Hannity playing music to drown out Jones, and ultimately cutting the interview short—allegedly because Hannity was being "humiliated on live TV."

Fox News can not handle facts unless they
get to let "their people" work on them before the get on air. Fox News is Roger
Ailes answer to Nixon getting run from office.
