  1. He’s going to wind up just like Tucker, unemployed.

  2. Fuck you Jesse. Repeat it nightly for a month that YOU lied. Make it one of your creepy repeated talking points where all the clones repeat it on their shows for a month . And then pay Newsom personally (as well as Fox News) for the lawsuit.

  3. it’s funny how every time someone gets caught in a lie, it’s someone on the right…

  4. Still sue the shi. Out of him and network. Firing is great outcome, Fox should be relabeled “Not the News”, and pay a hefty settlement.

  6. We need more of this, sue the pants off the liars, force them to have a come to Jesus moment in front of everyone to show how phoney they are.

  7. Dude looks like he’s about to cry. Must have gotten a talking to backstage.

  8. One of the most insincere “but what about” apologies I’ve seen.

  10. Too late Jesse boy, now you and Fox have a law suit coming

  11. Insincere apology didn’t cut it. Now it’s time for settlement talks.

  12. I think we will see more of this. With Trump suing Rupert, you will see Fox turn on Trump and actually start reporting the news.

  13. Gotta love than even his “apology” is just blaming Newsom for his own, blatant lies. I hope Newsom doesn’t accept this, it sure doesn’t fit the terms he outlined for dropping the suit.

  14. The lies are non stop! Why didn’t the media fact check trumps claim last week that China has no windmills ??? He said it like 3 times with zero pushback!!! Truth is that China leads the world in wind energy!!!!!!

    His followers not only believe trump but they’re convinced that coal is cleaner than wind, global warming is a hoax as the ice caps that have been there for tens of thousands of years rapidly melt!!!

    How much longer will trump be allowed to ruin the economy, destroy the planet, divide Americans, and cause chaos all around the world???

    For God’s sake this needs to stop!!!!! I’m not a democrat either!

  15. Apology??? Embarrassing??? haha. Jesse was just laying out the facts… Newsom, after he got caught lying saying that Trump NEVER called him, then said he thought he meant he called me that day. Jesse just said that apparently there was a misunderstanding with Newsom… All he had to do was say Trump called 2 days earlier, which was when the ICE protest began. Jesse was right. Newsom lies about EVERYTHING! Just like he lied to a woman during the California fires, saying he’s on the phone with the President right now… That was another Newsom lie!

    Newsom is also suing Trump for EVERYTHING, to try to save face because he’s the worst Governor in the United States, and he’s destroyed and bankrupted California. And this idiot thinks he’s got a chance to be President??? lmao

  16. Sue that smug arrogant prick’s ass off Gavin. Good luck on his new show “the 5am” time slight.

  17. After the previous lawsuit and payout, it’s bizarre that the case and American law haven’t forced Fox to delete the word News from their title and logo. It’s false advertising.

  18. Glenn Beck left Fox after sponsors starting pulling out on his show. Then the handsy ” Do It Live ” O’Reilly was sent packing for sexual harassment lawsuit(s). Tucker Swanson was sent packing with the Dominion lawsuit fallout. There is so much recent history at Fox that Jesse can see the writing on the wall if Gavin’s lawsuit has real merit.

  19. The man has the aura of a fucking demon. If that’s what he’s like on TELEVISION I can only imagine how many people have felt grossed out by him in person.
