Maria Bartiromo Out at Fox

"Fox News Media has parted ways with anchor Maria Bartiromo, a veteran news personality who is a central figure in two defamation cases against the company.

Fox News issued a terse statement Thursday saying she is no longer employed at its networks, effective immediately."
(from LA Times article)
I have to say, I'm very surprised by this. Maria is one of the very few talking heads that I ever bothered to watch. I'd like to see her show up as the new White House Press Secretary.

There's lots of speculation regarding FOX's participation in the 2020 election fraud. There was something about FOX calling Arizona for Biden (easily should have gone to Trump) before the votes were in that aroused suspicion. FOX settled a defamation suit brought by Dominion Voting Systems due to FOX's claims about Dominion's fraud. FOX settled for nearly $800 million, but some think the whole thing (especially the large payout) was a charade to dissuade others from investigating Dominion.

Apparently, Bartiromo felt that her duty to Country was greater than her duty to Employer, and was leaking internal FOX memos regarding the 2020 election issues to the White House. There's a You Tube video on this debacle, but you have to sign in to view it "to prove you're not a bot." I have never seen that requirement before, nor have I watched the video because I don't sign in to You Tube.

I bet the crap this stirs up will be the main event. Her firing was the warm-up act. Her contract is good through 2029. She'll get paid, she just won't be on the air. Somewhere in the range of $6M-$10M/year. I bet FOX could cancel that contract if she violated her NDA, but they may just want this to die a quiet death.
 
For some reason, the host has him on but doesn't want to let him talk, but it's still interesting. Mostly, i was interested in what the host was afraid of. I've seen better from CNN.

I got this in my email today, part of a longer note . Not a shot fired or money spent (yet). Trump still makes people grumpy but he is getting things done in his way for the US and the world.
People will still make things hard for him but he presses on. Hope Iran ends soon. Probably after mid term elections.

This week, President Trump announced a historic agreement with the Kingdom of Denmark and Greenland that gives the United States permanent control over security — and all other needs — in Greenland, at no cost to the American people. For over 100 years, Presidents understood the strategic importance of Greenland, but none were able to act. President Trump described the agreement as an “Infinite Life” deal with no end: from now on, no U.S. adversary can ever have a base, a military presence, or make sensitive investments in Greenland without America’s express written approval. The administration will immediately begin developing a large military presence in Greenland, working alongside the people of Greenland in its development.
 
Good evening to all-

Let's be honest here- this EXACT agreement has been in place between the US and Greenland for a long time. There's nothing new here- except in the First Felon's mind. There is no credit due to the First Felon for claiming something which has already existed for a long time.

But then, there are so very many things that the First Felon is not aware of...

you all be safe and keep well- and confusion to the republicans

Welllll We have had bases there and left. And the people of Greenland were kicking around the words of Independence when he talked about annexing them. Denmark was not pleased with the talk. And now Denmark and Greenland have reached a 'deal' with Trump. Dare I say a new one.

This Just Happened.
 
We just had a radical Islamic pilot try to crash the airplane full of passengers. All of the passengers on airplanes have to go through inspection before they can board the plane, but a radical pilot can just walk on board apparently.
What I read was that one of the passengers was able to get into the the control room and subdue the radical pilot until the co-pilot was able to take over the controls and stop the plane from crashing and killing everyone on board.

We have had the foreign truck drivers wrecking trucks, but they do it through ignorance, and not intentionally, but this radical Muslim was trying to kill everyone on the airplane, and they were all just innocent people trying to go somewhere.

A trained radical Islamic trying to make a point.
 
Just look at the RIDICULOUS slant (by CBS news) on this story of Vermont middle schoolers refusing to wear "pride month" crap. (And good for those students! A bright spot in a dreary day.)
