I just read somewhere that Judge Jeanine Pirro is a close confidant of the entire Trump family. I personally think she's a shrill, badly informed and nasty liar, but go figure.

And it gets worse each day.
Watching Fox now days is the same as reading or watching Russian journalists.
This is detailed in an article in the New Yorker detailing the instructions from the Kremlin to Russian journalists on the election here in 2016.
It sounds like an editor at Fox laying out the game plan.....
This is the link....I know that most will not read but here it is anyway.....funny how these posters ask for information and then never read it as evidenced by their response...
A Russian Journalist Explains How the Kremlin Instructed Him to Cover the 2016 Election | The New Yorker
A few things from that article....
.....
"Skorobutov opened a packet of documents and explained that they were planning guides from Russian state media that showed how the Kremlin wanted the 2016 U.S. Presidential election covered."
.....
"Among the journalists, Skorobutov’s perspective was unique. Aside from Fox News, no network worked as hard as Rossiya, as Russian state TV is called, to boost Donald Trump and denigrate Hillary Clinton. "
.....
"He flipped through his pages and pointed to the coverage guide for August 9, 2016, when Clinton stumbled while climbing some steps. The Kremlin wanted to play the story up big."
....
."During the 2016 election, the directions from the Kremlin were less subtle than usual. “Me and my colleagues, we were given a clear instruction: to show Donald Trump in a positive way, and his opponent, Hillary Clinton, in a negative way,” he said in his speech. In a later interview, he explained to me how the instructions were relayed. “Sometimes it was a phone call. Sometimes it was a conversation,” he told me. “If Donald Trump has a successful press conference, we broadcast it for sure. And if something goes wrong with Clinton, we underline it.”
....
"“There was even a slogan among Russian political élite,” he said. “ ‘Trump is our president.’ And, when he won the elections, on 9th November, 2016, Russian Parliament or State Duma even applauded him and arranged a champagne party celebrating the victory of Donald Trump.” That night, Skorobutov and his colleagues played clips of the party on the news.
The article does NOT say that Trump colluded...nor has anyone but Trump keeps denying it because they tried and tried hard....but those who call the current investigation a "hoax' or anything other than an exercise to protect our country are working with very very faulty information
