Right-wing TV host John Fredericks on Tuesday smeared First Lady Jill Biden as "scum" and suggested she was not a doctor.

During his Outside the Beltway program on Real America's Voice, Fredericks lashed out at the Biden family over a child support dispute relating to Hunter Biden's 4-year-old daughter.

During an MSNBC "Morning Joe" panel on CNN's controversial decision to host Donald Trump in a town hall format next week, a former friend of the president predicted America will see a very diminished ex-president who is no longer at the top of his game.

Host Mika Brzezinski seemed skeptical at the wisdom of giving the indicted ex-president a forum, while panelist Elise Jordan claimed, "It's a win for Trump."

On a new podcast, Donald Trump Jr. threw a fit over Fox News not inviting him on as a guest for nearly a year, The Daily Beast reported on Monday.

"'I’ve been watching the censorship happening, even in conservative mainstream media,' Trump Jr. said on a Monday edition of the right-wing Steak for Breakfast podcast," reported Zachary Petrizzo. "'You saw what Fox did to Tucker Carlson last week, and the week before that, it was Dan Bongino, and, you know, the people who would actually question some of that narrative like: Is it a brilliant plan to send $130 billion to Ukraine, one of the most corrupt nations in the world?'"

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) disagreed with former President Donald Trump's suggestion that he may skip Republican primary debates in the 2024 presidential race.

During an interview on Monday, conservative podcast host Charlie Kirk asked Boebert if Republicans should follow the lead of Democrats by scuttling primary debates.

Former President Donald Trump criticized Fox Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch after his company agreed to pay $787.5 million to settle a defamation lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems.

During a "fireside chat" with podcaster Steve Bannon, Trump complained Sunday that the government had been "weaponized" against conservatives.

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani suggested that Donald Trump may be unable to complete a second term as president because of his age.

During his Sunday WABC radio program, Giuliani was asked if Trump should pick Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) for vice president if he wins the Republican primary. The former mayor acknowledged that the ticket would be difficult because the U.S. Constitution requires running mates to reside in separate states.

Sen Ted Cruz (R-TX) accused Democrats of hating conservative Justice Clarence Thomas because he is a Black man.

During an interview on Fox News, host Maria Bartiromo noted that Thomas was facing ethics investigations after reports found that he failed to disclose expensive gifts and trips.

Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel urged Republicans to face women's reproductive rights "head-on" after her party's war on abortion was blamed for poor performance in the midterm elections.

McDaniel addressed the midterm losses in a Sunday interview with Fox News host Shannon Bream.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) agreed with Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy that Hunter Biden contributed to a "crisis" of manliness in the United States.

"There is no doubt that we have a crisis of purpose for men, especially young men in this country, and we just need to call these men to something higher," Hawley told Fox News on Sunday.

Liz Harrington, a spokesperson for Donald Trump, insisted that the former president would not debate at the Reagan Library because it is "rigged."

Harrington made the remarks after a Newsmax host noted that Trump suggested he would not appear in primary debates.

Following a month in which Fox News agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $787.5 million to settle a defamation lawsuit only to days later fire the host of their most popular nighttime show, the conservative network is still dealing with the fallout as ratings have plunged.

According to a report from the Guardian, after a chaotic two weeks, Fox is trying to right the ship with the 2024 election looming and viewers having moved on to competitors such as Newsmax.

In the midst of all his legal battles — including a rape and defamation civil trial currently underway in a Manhattan courtroom that is not going well for him — Donald Trump kicked off his Saturday morning by raging at HBO's "Real Time" host Bill Maher.

Without pointing out what exactly the comedian and gadfly said about him late Friday night, the former president called out Maher as "boring" and insisted HBO should be forced to run "counter programing [sic]."
