Juan Williams tries to blame Kamala loss on racism, sexism — then entire Fox News panel silences his narrative



As it became clear Donald Trump would become the next president, Democrat Juan Williams tried to blame Kamala Harris' humiliating loss on sexism and racism.

But his fellow Fox News panelists refused to let that excuse slide.

'To suggest that somehow black men are racist because they supported a white man is just too far.'

After first accusing Trump of having "led an insurrection against the United States government" — a crime for which Trump has never been charged — Williams doubled down on the media's most trite narrative to explain away Harris' loss.

"I'm not sold on this idea that it was the cost of eggs," Williams said. "I worry that it was, 'Well, I'm not voting for this woman.' Or, 'I'm not voting for this black woman.'"

Fox News anchor Bret Baier immediately fact-checked Williams.

"Well, no, that's not what we see in our data," he pointed out.

When Williams tried defending his position, anchor Martha MacCallum interjected to point out that many black male voters feel "that Democrats and elites put immigrants before" them. Undeterred, Williams responded by attributing Trump's win to a "bro strategy and the white male turnout and white grievance politics."

"He's trailing among his prior 2020 numbers with whites," Brit Hume shot back, putting a dagger in Williams' narrative.

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy then noted that Trump increased his share of support among black men and Hispanics, more evidence disproving Williams' narrative that Harris is a victim of political racism.

Finally, Karl Rove prescribed Williams a dose of reality.

"I just think it is extremely odd to suggest that black men are somehow prejudiced because they vote for a white candidate who says, 'I want to make certain that everybody has an opportunity to succeed in our great economy. I want you to be more prosperous, and I will do things that will make it possible for you to make a better life,'" Rove said.

"That is an appeal to their best instincts," he explained. "He did not go out and say, 'Vote for me because I'm not a woman. Vote for me because I'm a white man.' That would not have attracted those votes. They got attracted to him because they thought he was a strong, effective leader, and they thought he would do something about the issues they cared the most about, which is an economy in which they think they get the short stick, inflation, which has decimated their purchasing power, and illegal immigration, which has affected their communities deeply."

"And to suggest that somehow black men are racist because they supported a white man is just too far, Juan," Rove chided.

Unfortunately, Williams refused to budge. In the end, he claimed that men supported Trump because he talks about "women in the most disparaging way."

"I think they supported him in spite of that — not because of it. They supported him because he offered to make their life better," Rove fact-checked.

Juan Williams Repeats False Claim That Biden Lost His Son In Iraq

Juan Williams repeated one of President Joe Biden's most frequent and abhorrent lies that the president lost a son in combat.

Juan Williams defends Biden for attacking Republicans as 'semi-fascists,' then Karl Rove uses Biden's own words to refute him



Karl Rove and Juan Williams clashed on Sunday over President Joe Biden's harsh condemnation of Americans who support former President Donald Trump.

What is the background?

Speaking at a political rally last week, Biden claimed that "MAGA Republicans" are committed "to destroying America."

"The MAGA Republicans don’t just threaten our personal rights and economic security, they’re a threat to our very democracy," Biden charged. "They refuse to accept the will of the people. They embrace political violence. They don’t believe in democracy."

Biden also told attendees at a Democratic National Committee event that adherents to "MAGA philosophy" are embracing "semi-fascism."

"What we’re seeing now is either the beginning or the death knell of an extreme MAGA philosophy. It’s not just Trump," Biden said. "It’s the entire philosophy that underpins — I’m going say something — it’s almost like semi-fascism, the way in which it deals."

What happened between Rove and Williams?

Williams tried to defend Biden's accusations by noting they came after Jan. 6, suggesting that the context of Trump's refusal to accept the 2020 election results and the subsequent U.S. Capitol riot are justification for Biden's remarks.

"I think if people behave that way, then they can expect to be called semi-fascist — fascists — because it’s anti-democratic action," Williams said. "You are acting against the Constitution of these United States," William said. "I think, and without being dramatic, that’s how democracy dies. They were trying to undermine, to subvert this Constitution."

Williams reinforced his position by pointing to Biden purportedly differentiating between "conservative Republicans" and "MAGA Republicans."

Rove, however, did not buy it and rebutted Williams' defense by using Biden's own words from his inaugural presidential address to prove Biden is dividing America — not healing it.

"He was not talking about the people who assaulted the Capitol. He was attacking the entire party," Rove corrected "This was not in keeping with what the president promised us."

Rove then proceeded to recite Biden's words.

"'My whole soul is in it,' he said in his inaugural, 'bringing America together, uniting our people, uniting our nation.' That was after Jan. 6," Rove noted. "'We must see each other not as adversaries but as neighbors. We should treat each other with dignity and respect.' He was not treating his political opponents with dignity and respect."

\u201cKarl Rove goes after Joe Biden for calling the MAGA philosophy "semi-fascism": \n\n"He was not talking about people who assaulted the Capitol ... he was attacking the entire party ..."\n\n(Juan Williams *correctly* points out to Rove Biden was not hitting "conservative Republicans.")\u201d

Williams immediately took umbrage with Rove.

"But Karl," Williams interjected, "he clearly, clearly was speaking to — he said clearly 'I'm not talking about conservative Republicans.'"

"No, he didn't say that," Rove fired back. "Those words never passed his lips."

So who is right?

The transcript of Biden's remarks show that Rove is right and Biden did not say he was not referring to "conservative Republicans."

In his DNC speech, Biden condemned Maryland gubernatorial Republican nominee Dan Cox — who is Trump-endorsed — as "a MAGA Republican" and someone who "is not a traditional conservative Republican."

Juan Williams claims defending parents' rights is racist dog whistle: 'Code for white race politics'



Fox News political analyst Juan Williams claimed in a new essay that defending parents' rights is meant to sow racial division while masquerading "as a defense of little children."

What did Williams say?

Parents' rights have become a prominent issue in recent months as parents nationwide dispute a number of issues impacting schools, including COVID-related restrictions, radical LGBT policies, and certain teachings on race.

But according to Williams, defending parents' rights — which became a prominent issue in the Virginia gubernatorial race — is a racist dog whistle, or as the headline of his recent essay at The Hill claims, "code for white race politics."

"It is a campaign to stop classroom discussion of Black Lives Matter protests or slavery because it could upset some children, especially white children who might feel guilt," Williams wrote.

By making parents' rights a prominent issues, Williams charged that "Trump-imitating Republican" have struck "political gold."

Without evidence, Williams directly connected concerns over parents' rights to defending Confederate monuments, the 2017 Charlottesville riots, the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, and segregation.

"There is a long history behind the latest racist political appeals. It is not long ago that racist southern politicians rallied against integration with an argument for 'states' rights,' a call to be free of federal laws seeking to end segregation," Williams wrote. "Now the message is that white parents are being ignored when they complain that their children are uncomfortable learning about racism."

Williams even expressed support for the letter the National School Boards Association sent President Joe Biden, demanding federal intervention over angry parents confronting school boards. The NSBA has since apologized for the letter.

Anything else?

Williams' essay reads like Democrat Terry McAuliffe's talking points.

In the closing weeks of the Virginia gubernatorial race, McAuliffe's two biggest attacks on his Republican opponent, Glenn Youngkin, focused on Youngkin's position on parents' rights and former President Donald Trump. Although Trump has not played a role in the election, McAuliffe has continually tried to tie Youngkin to Trump.

In the end, Williams claimed the fight to defend parents' rights has nothing to do with parents' rights, but everything to do with "stirring up racial division."

Former Fox host Juan Williams claims GOP is trying to ‘steal’ future elections



Election security was not an issue in 2020, but it will be in 2024, according to former Fox News host Juan Williams.

The longtime Fox News senior political analyst warned in an opinion piece published by The Hill on Monday that the Republican Party is laying the groundwork to "steal an election."

"We need to talk about Jan. 6. I'm talking about Jan. 6, 2025. That's when the U.S. Congress will meet to certify the winner of the 2024 presidential election," he said. Williams announced last month that he would no longer co-host Fox News' "The Five," a daily evening news talk show, but would continue work as a political analyst for the network.

Relating the Republican Party's alleged plan to the hit crime series "How to Get Away With Murder," Williams argued that "as the 2024 race approaches, the Trump-GOP's current weekly drama is titled 'How to Get Away with Murdering Democracy.'"

In the piece, Williams argued that Republicans — many of whom alleged that the previous election was stolen by Democrats — are ironically attempting to steal the next presidential election by dismissing concerns over the Capitol riot and implementing election security laws in GOP-led state legislatures around the country.

Their three-step process goes as follows:

Step One — Don't mention Jan. 6, 2021. If it comes up, say Trump's violent radicals did not stop certification of President Biden's win over Trump. ... Next, prevent a bipartisan, independent commission from looking into the violent Republican riot. ...

Step Two — Change election laws in states with GOP-majority legislatures. New laws in Georgia, for example, take power away from independent election boards and the secretary of state to certify election results. ...

Step Three — Suppress the votes of people who are unlikely to back Republicans: young people, college-educated whites, poor people, union members, working women, Blacks, Latinos and Asians.

Republicans are taking this last step nationwide by having state legislatures weaken voting rights laws.

"Republicans' focus is solely on regaining political power. They have no agenda for helping the country. They are totally focused on Jan. 6, 2025," Williams claimed.

He argued that new voting laws, like the one passed in Georgia, give "unprecedented power to the Republican legislature to determine the winner of the 2024 election," allowing them to "override local and state election officials in certifying votes."

"In 2020, the Georgia secretary of state — a Republican, Brad Raffensperger — defied Trump's demand to 'find' enough votes to make him the winner of the presidential race. Raffensperger or his successor will not have that power come 2024," he suggested.

Williams tried diligently to portray Republican efforts to tighten election security as part of a grand plan to suppress Democratic votes and unconstitutionally transfer electoral power over to the state legislatures.

Similar slanderous attacks against the election security measures have been launched in recent months by several Democratic politicians and media figures, including President Joe Biden.

But in reality, Republican efforts to ensure election integrity are for the most part incredibly commonplace among liberal democracies and, in many cases, actually expand voting opportunities.

GOP lawmakers have expressed that far from hoping to "steal an election," they only wish to course-correct from the unprecedented relaxed voting rules which marked the pandemic-stricken 2020 election.
