Even Fox can't take the heat when their bigoted hosts go off the rails. Pirro is one of my least favorite people, she thinks she is so smug and smart. Just like Trump, she has a hard time controlling her mouth and it gets them both in trouble.
I agree Tucker is probably next.
I rarely agree with you, but I agree with the bolded.
All the people who think Pirro is "Islamophobic" and horrible because she asked "Is her (Omar) adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?" were defending Tlaib LAST week for her comments, which were clearly Jewophobia (better than merely 'anti-Semitic') when actually accusing people of divided loyalties.
Don't be confused. Its really simple. I'll lay it out for you in three postulates...are you ready?
1. Anyone who puts their religion first (over our Constitution and its Rule of Law) is not a good American.
2. If you support foreign nations, or the interests of foreigners, above those of the US or Americans, you're not a good American, and you have divided loyalties (or none at all to the US).
3. If you cannot subjugate your "religious beliefs" to the principles of Constitutionalism and good citizenship, then you have no business being in this country (unless of course its only as a legitimate tourist or visiting business person here on actual real business with an American company).
The issue is that all the foreigners and people who have divided loyalties don't like being called out for their true nature as subversive and dangerous elements in our society, so they have gone on the offensive, with their smear campaign of fake contrived slurs against anyone who dares to point them out.
That's where the alternative cries of "anti-Semitic" and "Islamophobic" come from. Foreigners who don't belong here, and their useful idiot allies.
I disagree with their decision. LIke I posted in another thread, this is different than American Jews' loyalty to their own people. Islamism is in direct contradiction to American values. I truly believe that Ilhan Omar is more loyal to Islam and the Islamic cause than to the USA. She's importing her Islamic hatred of Israel and wants to threaten our long standing alliance with Israel out of her own personal loyalty to Islam.
The loyalty of American Jews to Israel doesn't bother me because our country's interests and their country's are aligned. However are interests are NOT aligned with those of fundamentalism Islam or Palestinians.
Fox News is a business. Tucker's remarks got so bad that a boycott began on him over the winter, and most of the big-ticket advertisers dropped him, but some continued to advertise with Fox on other shows. After he doubled up on his insults, Tucker lost the last big money advertiser that was left, and some of the earlier advertisers dropped Fox News altogether.
When the big money goes away, Fox can never make up the lost income if they can only keep the cheaper outfits that advertise funky goods in the late-night hours when the rates are low.
They depend on the big companies just as much as all the other channels, and viewer numbers don't mean squat if the big companies aren't keeping the lights on with their big advertising dollars.
When their people like Judge Janine and Tucker Carlson start costing Fox big money, they're gone. No one isn't irreplaceable these days.

You beat me to it.
I have always argued that religion can be a safe haven, but the opposite can be true as well.
That being said.
Israel has a right to defend itself, but they also have to be held responsible for rounding up anyone who has a 5th cousin who was once a terrorist,protester, or member of the the Palestinian Authority/Hamas. They kick people out of their homes, and bomb locations with out much regard of the surrounding area.
in 2014, i remember a story about them taking out a whole block, killed 4 kids who had just gotten out of school.
they are basically creating a self fulfilling prophecy. You bomb then, create militants, they bomb you for the death of their loved ones, you bomb them in return for the death of your loved ones, repeat cycle.
