President Donald Trump railed against a particular Fox News host he has a problem with on Tuesday, taking to his Truth Social platform to vent his frustration.
"I can’t stand Jessica Tarlov of THE FIVE. A real loser!!!" wrote Trump.
Tarlov is one of Fox News' few liberal-leaning commentators who often goes to bat against her co-hosts when they defend Trump's policies or dismiss the seriousness of his corruption scandals.
She has been highly critical of Trump since even before his re-election, calling an interview he did with a Black journalist organization last year a "dumpster fire."
Just before Trump posted his online rant against her, Tarlov weighed in on the mass shooting in New York City that unfolded on Monday, expressing her heartbreak over the victims and noting that the 1994 assault weapons ban that Republicans allowed to expire reduced mass shootings in the United States by 70 percent.
"When the ban sunsetted, it spiked back up," she said.
All of this comes as Trump wages a legal battle against the Wall Street Journal, another right-leaning outlet under the same News Corp umbrella of billionaire media tycoon Rupert Murdoch.
Trump is alleging that a story the Journal published about a salacious birthday letter he wrote to Jeffrey Epstein is defamatory, and denies the letter is authentic. The president's legal team suggested Murdoch needs to be deposed immediately because the 94-year-old could die soon.
