Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs, a former pro wrestler who went by the name Kane, argued that his fake body slam of WWE co-founder Linda McMahon "prepared" her to take on teachers as President-elect Donald Trump's education secretary.

During a Monday interview with Newsmax, Jacobs recalled body slamming McMahon in a stunt at a WWE event.

Fox News medical contributor and forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden contradicted the defense of Daniel Penny, a former Marine on trial for allegedly killing street artist Jordan Neely with a chokehold in 2023.

Penny's defense, which rested Friday, argued that Neely's sickle cell trait and marijuana use led to his death. But during a Sunday appearance on Fox News, Baden said that it was Penny's chokehold that had "caused the death" of Neely.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) said he opposed President-elect Donald Trump's plan to place tariffs on imported goods because it would be "a tax on the consumer."

The Republican lawmaker came out against the proposal during a Sunday interview on CBS after host Margaret Brennan asked if he supported billionaire hedge fund CEO Scott Bessent to be Treasury secretary.

Fox News contributor Leslie Marshall revealed she had worked with former host Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for defense secretary, and she believes that he is a rapist.

In a Fox News segment on Sunday, host Howard Kurtz noted that Hegseth was accused of rape in 2017 by a woman who went to the police, "and a rape kit confirmed the sexual encounter."

Fox News pundits Ben Domenech and Leslie Marshall agreed that former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) was unqualified to be a babysitter or drive teenage girls in an Uber because he had been accused of having sex with a 17-year-old girl.

During a Sunday panel discussion on Fox News, Domenech agreed with Gaetz's decision to withdraw as President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) vowed to support Elon Musk's so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) by investigating NPR and "toilets in Africa."

"Elon Musk will be leading the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, under the Trump administration, aimed at cutting at least $2 trillion said to be government waste of taxpayer money," Fox News host Maria Bartiromo explained during an interview with Greene on Sunday.

Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy told Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) that she didn't need to see women's private parts to enforce anti-transgender bathroom bans because she could tell who was a biological woman by looking at them.

During a Sunday interview on Fox News, Mace explained her crusade against Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (R-DE) by suggesting she had a fear of being raped in the bathroom by the first transgender member of Congress.

ABC host Jonathan Karl pressed Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) after he suggested that FBI background checks for President-elect Donald Trump's nominees weren't necessary.

During a Sunday interview on ABC's This Week program, Karl noted that Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) had called for an FBI background check for defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth, who faced sexual misconduct allegations.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) revealed she was "very disappointed" after former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) withdrew as President-elect Donald Trump's nominee to be attorney general — and called for releasing a secret list of other sexual harassment lawsuits against other lawmakers.

During a Thursday interview on Real America's Voice, Greene reacted to Gaetz dropping out just minutes before CNN reported that a woman told the House Ethics Committee the former lawmaker engaged in sexual misconduct with her at least twice when she was 17.

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones praised former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) despite a second allegation that he sexually assaulted a 17-year-old girl.

On his embattled Infowars show Thursday, Jones reacted to the news Gaetz had withdrawn his name as President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for attorney general, which came as CNN was set to report that a woman told a House committee she was sexually assaulted by the former lawmaker at least twice while she was 17 years old.
