Inadmissible

Hold the phone on claims. Every day the septic system of politics disgorges a load of excrement buried about elections .

Correction - u cannot steal something u never owned!

Look at Arizona. Lots of corruption with voting and these systems.

You are picking bits and pieces of this court battle. Tell the real truth. What did Dominion voting systems not deny?

Sounds like CNN anchors crying false Russian collusion theory 24/7 for years. what comes around goes around!

Yeah because yall never push a false story.... the pot meets the kettle at last lmfao.

It’s only a letter of time until it becomes true like the rest.

Not false.

~ watching AC360 now and heard talk of how FoxNews is now fully behind desantis… they need to just go ahead and take news out of their name and replace it with gop strategists.

CNN you should look at your news station 4 years you pushed the Russian collusion covering up the covid origin and covering up Hunter Biden's laptop I call that election interference call it what you want fraud interference it's the same thing someday you will be held accountable

I feel like he's acknowledging they were wrong after an investigation.

Perhaps CNN should focus on their own misinformation.

He’s doing a Trump and throwing people under the bus.

That is a big admission

Hey ! I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time. Can we please get an update on Bat Boy?

They were completely spot on about the fraudulent election and dominion voting machines

Only Democrats are allowed to question elections.

Fox is gonna own Dominion

Because the machines were rigged!!!

It’s easy to say false it was never an investigation done anywhere in the 30 judges, who agreed did not look at one piece of evidence. Look it up CNN.

dbchirpy Murdoch does not give a shit about being under Oath. Fox is being sued, so throwing others under the bus, (they are guilty) doesn’t end this. What is the Saudi role in this since they own a chunk of foxnews Politics

Ok now do reguarding the Russian Collusion, the Covid origin all mandates and their efficacy and the fact that social media was infact censorship of conservatives

Now fn is driving the bus over, not surprised ! Lol

BREAKING NEWS . stop covering for pedophiles .

The 2020 election was stolen.

This is very serious. If I understand this story very well, the 3 Amingos-conspiracy theory-in-chief, Tucker, Hannity, and Ingraham are in real trouble because their boss just flicked on them. It's getting interesting.Their chickens are coming home to roast.

I'm not sure that's relevant, but whatever. They were on national TV at the time.

No shit Sherlock.

Rupert Murdoch: “Bus, meet Fox commentators”.

Of course the hosts knew it was all nonsense. They play their audience as fools and laugh at them behind their backs. The corporation will have to write a huge check from this lawsuit
