    2. Advocate for bombing a global peacekeeping body located in an American city. - Keep your show.

    3. Show a clip of POTUS having as much remorse for Charlie Kirk as a kid whose imaginary friend died. - Get cancelled.

    Jesse Watters had privately apologized to U.N. global communications chief Melissa Fleming

    Fuck off. You say that shit in public, you apologise in public. Better yet, he should have been sacked. There is no accountability on the right.

        He’s from Fox. They can do illegal stuff as long as it toes the party line. And UN bad fits the bill. One wrong word about CK though and the MAGAs act like rabid fleas.

        As long as he’s white and mr President likes him, he won’t be jailed for anything.

    okay finally an article whose text is just as oniony

    The United Nations was shocked, U.N. spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said on Friday, when a Fox News host called for the world body to be bombed over U.S. President Donald Trump’s difficulties with an escalator and a teleprompter.

    Watters made the remarks while discussing Trump’s address to world leaders at the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday. Trump complained about an elevator that had stopped shortly after he stepped onto it and a teleprompter that did not work.

    “What we need to do is either leave the U.N. or we need to bomb it,” Watters said. “Maybe gas it … we need to destroy it.”

    The United Nations has said the escalator abruptly stopped after Trump and first lady Melania Trump stepped on to it likely because a White House videographer accidentally triggered a safety mechanism. Trump also experienced issues with the teleprompter, but a U.N. official said it was being operated by the White House.

      It’s really time for the UN to move to Europe or China, a new venue will take time to build, and a longer transition will be better.

      Imagine building it in the Hague.

      Rupert could only dream and salivate at the thought of this being acceptable, as well as the other P2025 hounds of hell.
