Our next question comes from @Question0786.
Perfect handle for question asking, I guess.
Their question is, "Do you think there will ever come a time where Fox News will eventually
just say to themselves, 'Screw it,' and start criticizing Trump in front of their Trump-supporting
viewers without fearing Trump's backlash?"
No.
I don't.
I don't think they will ever hit that point.
Fox News, even during the Bush administration, okay, when it was pretty obvious this administration
was committing war crimes by torturing detainees, when all those pictures from Abu Ghraib came
out, they defended it.
They were out there telling us that this was okay, even though it was an obvious violation
of international treaties, and international laws, and we were 100% without question committing
war crimes.
They still defended it, trying to say, "But it doesn't matter, because they're the bad
guys."
"Oh, waterboarding's not that bad.
It's not even really torture."
Will they ever hit that point with Donald Trump where they finally say, "Wow.
This guy's a nut job.
He's not very smart.
He's not very good at being president.
He wasn't a good businessman.
We were wrong about it all"?
It's not gonna happen.
Even if we get the special prosecutor's report, and it proves without a doubt that Donald
Trump committed a conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States and undermine
our electoral process, even if there's irrefutable evidence, Fox News is gonna start saying,
"Whoa.
Isn't that really no big deal?"
If they impeach Donald Trump, that's going to embolden Fox News.
They're gonna go out there and they will be talking about that until the end of time.
They're gonna talk about how the Democrats only did it as a political move.
"They were so anti-Trump, suffering from Trump derangement syndrome, that they had to impeach
him because he was hurting their feelings."
That is exactly what this network is going to say.
I don't see a turnaround point.
I don't think there's anything Donald Trump could do that would make these Republicans
turn on him at Fox News.
He could probably walk into Fox News, to take a variation of his own speech he gave during
the campaign, he could walk into Fox News, punch Steve Doocy in the face, and Steve Doocy
would then probably apologize for having such a punchable face.
That's how beholden they are to him.
That's how much they're willing to defend him.
There's nothing this man can do to make them turn on him, so our option is to simply turn
them off.
That is the best way to fight back against Fox News.
They're 100% dependent upon viewers.
You starve them of that viewership, you starve them of their life as a network.
I don't waste too much time worrying about what the crazies over there at Fox News say.
Oh, their highest rated host can pull in two million viewers a night.
That's a lot, especially compared to the other folks.
But there's 330 million people in this country.
Two million a night really isn't influencing as many as they like to think that they're
influencing.

Now, in answering that question, I hit on the Mueller investigation.
You know, no matter what they find, Fox News is always gonna try to find a way to act like
it's not a big deal.
Well, Donald Trump right now, this week in fact, has entered phase two of his attacks
on the special prosecutor and the investigation.
On Monday of this week, Donald Trump, his administration, they announced that they were
going to declassify all of the information related to the FISA warrant for surveillance
on Carter Page, and they were gonna release it to the public.
In addition to that Carter Page FISA information, they also decided they were gonna release
the text messages between Lisa Page and Peter Strzok, which have no bearing on anything
at all, but they're gonna release them, and they're gonna release the interviews conducted
by Bruce Ohr, because Bruce Ohr is now Donald Trump's favorite target in the Department
of Justice, and so he wants to undermine, demean, and discredit that guy as well.
With regards to the Carter Page thing, what they're hoping to prove with the release of
these documents is that the entire investigation was based on what they call the discredited
dossier, and therefore the entire Mueller investigation is null and void.
"Big witch hunt, illegally started, nothing to see here.
Let's move on.
Let's fire Robert Mueller, and while we're at it, most likely fire Jeff Sessions as well."
Here's the problem they have with that.
First and foremost, we learned from the Devin Nunes memo itself that the investigation,
the surveillance on Carter Page, was not started based on anything in that Steele Dossier.
That was not the reasoning used.
That was not the argument made to the FISA court that surveillance needed to be placed
on Carter Page.
That's a lie.
If the administration wants to release that, aside from it being a major national security
problem for them, it's not gonna say what they think it's going to say.
Furthermore, while we're mentioning the dossier, can anybody tell me, maybe tweet it to me,
perhaps email it to me, any piece of the dossier that's been proven false?
Because right now, you can't.
Even though we know for a fact that this investigation, the surveillance, the warrants, all that,
none of it was started because of the dossier, even if it had been started because of the
dossier, none of it's been proven false.
In fact, most of it, at this point, has actually been proven true.
What's the problem?
Does it matter who paid for it?
Because it was first started, as we all know, by the Washington Free Beacon, a conservative
outlet.
Then it was paid for by the Democratic Party.
Actually Hillary Clinton's law firm.
Then, after they stopped paying for it, it was self-financed.
There's three different independent groups that funded it, but none of the information
has been proven false.
So why does it matter if it was based on that or not, even though it wasn't?
But to kind of hit back on the national security issue, this is something a lot of people have
been saying, is the fact that if you release these FISA warrants, and the information that
was given to the FISA court, it's gonna reveal a lot of sources.
You know, undercover sources within the Department of Justice, the independent sources overseas,
people who have risked their lives to give this information, so yeah, you could be looking
at a very intense national security problem in that regard.
My solution to that is, redact the names, make sure you don't release who did what,
but I'm all for actually releasing the information to the world.
Let them understand that you've been lying from day one, because what's come out from
it so far proves you wrong, so it's not gonna end the way you think it is, with that.
But here's where they're trying to get us, is with the text messages from Page and Strzok.
That is the meat that they want us to see, and that is something we have no business
seeing whatsoever.
They're gonna use those text messages to prove that this entire investigation has been politically
motivated and is therefore void, that nothing they do matters, because they were politically
motivated.
Again, from the Nunes memo, we know that's not true.
We know that's not the case, but the brain dead, MAGA hat wearing crowd doesn't understand
that, and they will never accept that.
They want to see these juicy text messages and find out what's been going on.
It's not gonna reveal what they think it's gonna reveal.
They're hoping it's gonna be enough to convince enough people that Robert Mueller should be
fired, and that Jeff Sessions should be fired, but again, probably not gonna work out the
way that they think it is.
Bruce Ohr, who's also a target of this, has already been thoroughly vetted.
We understand that this guy has not done anything wrong.
We know the protocols he went through to give this information to the people who needed
to receive it.
He did not personally act on any of it, so there's that.
But this is all an excuse to further lay the groundwork to end the special prosecutor's
investigation.
We have to take a break.
We'll be right back.
