Fox News host ridiculed over New York City tirade: 'He’s historically illiterate'
Fox News host Jesse Watters was mocked for ranting and dropping unfounded claims about New York City during a live broadcast on Friday.The conservative host of "The Five" was responding to President Donald Trump's comments about New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's rent freeze, which was approved by the New York City Board, and remarks about what the president called "commies." "I just found out — New York City — half of the city is on Medicaid," Watters said. "Twenty percent of the city is on food stamps, five percent of the city lives in the projects, 70 percent of the city is not white, 40 percent of the city wasn't even born in America. We're going down a dangerous road."Social media users reacted to the Fox News personality's comments."He’s historically illiterate: 40% of NYC, a higher percentage than now, was foreign born in 1910 (!) This is not new," Zeteo’s Mehdi Hasan wrote on X."Jesse needs a history lesson. Here are the percentages of NYC foreign born residents going back to 1850 (Source: US Census). This is nothing new and it's not dangerous. What really bothers him is the "not white" part," Geoff Brown, political commentator and retired school district administrator, wrote on X."Jesse Watters 100% full of s---," Navy veteran Louella Hopkins wrote on X."That's how New York has always been you racist little t--- waffle," political commentator Rodger Williams wrote on X.He’s historically illiterate: 40% of NYC, a higher percentage than now, was foreign born in 1910 (!)This is not new. https://t.co/5IOpgr2dYp— Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan) June 26, 2026

Mike Johnson's warning about voting blue backfires: 'Don't threaten us with a good time'
GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson's warning about electing Democrats ended up sounding like 'a good time' to online critics.During a full-throated speech at the Faith & Freedom Coalition "Road to Majority" Conference on Friday, Johnson (R-LA) tried to admonish voters, "If we lose the midterms, these Democrats will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body.""They'll go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors, friends, half of you in this room will be targeted," Johnson said.The reaction on X to Johnson's warning was a mix of suspicion that the House Speaker is confirming the Trump administration has something to hide, and critics of Trump said the prediction sounded enticing."Don't threaten us with a good time," political commentator Jamie Bonkiewicz joked."Good point," Dan Pfeiffer, a co-host of Pod Save America, wrote in reaction to Johnson's warning. "If you think politicians, billionaires, elites, and members of the Epstein Class should be able to do whatever they want without any accountability, vote Republican this fall.""It'd be nice to have a Speaker who'd say: 'And let them, we have nothing to hide, and they'll look like fools for doing it,'" posted Tom Nichols, veteran political commentator and a staff writer at The Atlantic. "But what he's saying here is: They're gonna uncover a lot of stuff, and you don't want that."The account for the political news network MeidasTouch similarly interpreted the warning as "Mike Johnson giving Democrats more reasons to vote.""He's admitting that they are criminals," progressive news personality Alex Cole posted. "Wow.""Just the Speaker of the House pledging that if you vote Republican he will continue to make sure all the corruption and criminality happening in the Trump admin will be covered up by him and his do-nothing committee chairs," Ron Filipkowski, political commentator and editor-in-chief of MeidasTouch, wrote.
