Although no one still knows who the next President will be, there’s no denying the fact that the Democrats suffered a humiliating defeat on November 3 – with Republicans slicing Pelosi’s House majority down to razor-thin margins.

Of course, most political pundits, analysts, and Democrat officials all agree that the extreme, liberal wing of the Party’s nonstop calls for defunding the police and outright socialism is the reason they lost so many seats this election.

But this one Fox News host is rushing to AOC and “The Squad’s” defense.

During a recent episode of America’s Newsroom, Chris Wallace appeared to talk about the massive division taking place between moderate Democrats and the far-left members of the Party such as AOC and “The Squad.”

But instead of blaming the massive losses Democrats suffered this election on the outspoken, extreme members of the Party, Chris Wallace chose to defend AOC and “The Squad” – saying he expects them to “have a lot of clout in the House” during the next session of Congress.

“Everybody expected them [Democrats] . . . to pick up a half dozen seats at least. It looks like they’ve lost more than a half dozen seats,” said Wallace.

“So, you could say well, ‘The Squad,’ AOC and her colleagues, don’t have as much power. On the other hand, Nancy Pelosi is going to have a razor-thin majority in the House. They’re going to need every vote,” he continued.

And then came the bombshell from Wallace.

“Those members of ‘The Squad’ and their like-minded colleagues are going to have a lot of clout in the House. They hold, in many respects, the balance of the majority in their hands.”

But Pants on Fire readers probably aren’t the least bit surprised to hear Chris Wallace is defending AOC and “The Squad.”

After all, this is the same Chris Wallace who, instead of moderating, spent most of the first debate arguing with and attacking President Trump.

And this is the same Fox News who prematurely called Arizona for Joe Biden on election night and also cut White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany off during the middle of a press conference on the alleged voter fraud that took place in several states on November 3.

For years, Fox News was the number one cable rated news network on television.

But things are changing fast.

And now Fox News is facing one crisis about Donald Trump that could change the network forever.

Ever since the election, a segment of Fox News viewers began hunting around for an alternative.

These former Fox News viewers were furious with Chris Wallace’s debate moderating performance and became enraged when Fox prematurely called Arizona for Joe Biden on Election Night.

Newsmax TV has been the beneficiary of these audience defections from Fox News.

Programs on Newsmax such as Spicer and Co. that previously drew an audience of 90,000 now attract 600,000 or 700,000 viewers.

And some primetime programs on Newsmax now see 1,000,000 tune in.

Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy addressed his network’s rise on CNBC and admitted that Fox was the preferred network for the portion of the country that distrusted the liberal media, but that Newsmax had the infrastructure to compete.

“Cable news market is a $6 billion market,” Ruddy told CNBC. “Fox has had half of it. They have [had] no competition. We are the first. We have the distribution, now, to compete with them head on.

Ruddy also told CNBC host Joe Kernen that Fox was “schizophrenic” in how it seemed to go against the President this election.

“Fox was very schizophrenic, Joe, in this previous election in its support and consistency about the president,” Ruddy continued. “I think Newsmax was consistently supportive of the president. I think he was very disappointed — he has told me personally that he wasn’t happy with the Fox News coverage, and, you know, the election night where they called Arizona, but they wouldn’t call Florida, and a number of other things.”

Ratings on Fox are down across the board.

Some of that is a natural decline due to post-election political fatigue from some Americans who were not regular cable news consumers.

But a chunk of that ratings decline is because viewers believed that Fox News betrayed its base.

On Election Night, Fox News turned on Donald Trump.

Fox News’ “straight news” programming took on a decidedly anti-Trump and pro-Joe Biden framing.

And you won’t believe why Fox News took this host off the air after the election.

Justice with Judge Jeanine was one of Fox News Channel’s most popular weekend programs.

Jeanine Pirro was a stalwart supporter of President Trump and Fox News viewers looked forward to her election analysis.

But when viewers tuned in, Judge Jeanine Piro was not on the air.

And reports surfaced that Fox News benched Piro because Piro intended to support Donald Trump’s legal fight to contest the results of the election due to voter fraud and other irregularities.

Newsmax exclusively reported:

Sources close to the network tell Newsmax, because she made a very staunch defense of President Trump and wanted to expose the vote fraud that took place in the election, Fox News decided not to air her show. It had extended coverage of Democrat Joe Biden’s acceptance speech of a contested election.

The sources gave no inclination of whether the network is going to keep the show going, but we hear she was suspended at least for this weekend.

On Election Night, Fox News prematurely called Arizona for Joe Biden.

Chris Wallace has been on air criticizing the President and his supporters for contesting the election.

And now Fox News allegedly benched one of their most popular hosts to censor President Trump’s message.

Many fear that Fox News is moving left to accommodate the incoming Biden administration.

The rest of the media already went into the tank for Biden during the campaign.

And if Fox News refuses to question Biden or aggressively report on his administration given the track record of Biden’s corruption as Obama’s Vice President, then there will be no major media outlets in America fairly covering a Biden administration.
