  1. TLDR:

    * *The Five* co-host Jesse Watters called a malfunctioning teleprompter and escalator during President Donald Trump’s U.N. visit an “insurrection”
    * Watters told his co-hosts on Tuesday that the U.N. headquarters in N.Y.C. should be bombed in response to the incidents
    * A U.N. spokesperson blamed a member of the U.S. delegation for the escalator malfunction

  2. So he’s getting fired for violent rhetoric, right?

  3. Funny how the FCC chair has opinions on what Kimmel says and not on this asshole.

  4. Where is Brendan Carr when you need him?

    Sounds like ~~legitmate hate speech~~ calling for a terrorist act to me. Time to take FOX of the air. /s

  6. Hi, FBI? I’d like to report someone for inciting violence. This man right here.

    It’s always the people you most suspect.

  8. The hateful rhetoric has to stop. Unless it comes from the right. Then it’s totally cool.

  9. Says the TV host with Botox, makeup, and multiple hair stylists.

  11. Well,  considering what didn’t get a fox host fired last week… I assume this won’t even warrant an apology.

    Anyways,  remind me why I need to be outraged about Jimmy Kimmel again? 

  12. Jesse Watters seem like the kind of guy who doesn’t wash his ass because touching a man’s butt is gay.

  13. Is he just sad the rapture didn’t take him this week?

  14. Escalator was Trump’s photographers fault.

    Teleprompter was run by White House staff.

    Fox dipshit, “We must 9/11 ourselves!!!”

  15. Republican when their wittle feewings are huwt: I’m going to bomb you, stab you, shoot you, eradicate you, cancel you. And they call us snowflakes? An escalator stopped working, likely because Trump’s own goon hit the stop button, but we need to “bomb” or “gas” the UN building? Holy hell, things are getting scary out there.

  16. Can he be placed in a mental health facility? He’s unstable.

  17. So Jimmy Kimmel gets fired for using trumps own words, but fox news host can suggest bombing the UN without recourse.

    Please, tell me more about how radical and violent the left are….

  19. The first amendment does NOT cover this type of speech. Incitement of violence/lawless behaviors has been repeatedly proven to be exempt from free speech laws.

  20. One week they want to kill homeless veterans and the next week they wanna bomb an American city. At what point do we place these nut cases behind bars?

  21. Sounds like a terrorist threat. Secret service should arrest him before someone acts on his calls for violence.

  22. Second fox person that has advocated killing people on air.

    Fox is terrorism

  23. *The ‘broken escalator’ caused by Trump’s own video crew

  24. Terrorist Jessie Watters, the same one who encouraged conservatives to “go in for the kill shot” on Anthony Fauci?That same terrorist Jessie Watters, who called for the assassination of a government official, is now leveraging his experience in stochastic terrorism to initiate a terrorist attack intended to murder hundreds in a city that has already been the target of multiple terrorist attacks? That Jessie Watters, conservative terrorist?

    Huh, ain’t that a thing.

  26. So he wants to spark an international crisis which would push us straight to the edge of WW3 over… an escalator mishap any competent world leader would have the ability to turn into a “Haha, we’re all just human,” quip that would boost their relatability.

    I know strongmen never want to look weak, but going apoplectic over a fucking escalator makes you look weaker than any mistake, or even act of sabotage.

  29. This is further evidence of why Fox is not a news station. The teleprompter was controlled by the White House, not the UN. The escalator stop was triggered by a WH cameraman, not the UN. Watters is an idiot.

  30. Also in the news:

    * A White House staffer somehow tripped the emergency stop safety for the escalator

    * A White House staffer was operating the teleprompter

  31. Jimmy Kimmel: -mildly criticizes the Trump admin-

    “FIRE HIM! THROW HIM IN JAIL! GIVE HIM THE CHAIR!”

    Fox News: -calls for federal euthanization of homeless people and attacks on the UN-

    -crickets-
