    Anyone surprised that they had to air a retraction?

    Fox News' Brian Kilmeade clarifies that image of judge at center of
    Trump search warrant was a fake

    “This depiction never took place & we wanted to make clear that we were showing a meme in jest," the Fox News host tweeted.

    Fox News host Brian Kilmeade on Friday sought to clarify the news organization’s use of a fake image depicting Judge Bruce Reinhart, who
    signed off on the Mar-a-Lago search warrant, with convicted sex
    trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.

    Kilmeade was filling in for “Tucker Carlson Tonight” when the fake image was aired on Fox News. It showed a doctored photo of Reinhart receiving
    a foot massage from Maxwell.

    “So a picture of Bruce Reinhart. This is the judge in charge of the... warrant. We’ll see if he’ll release it next. He likes Oreos and
    whiskey,” Kilmeade said Thursday night.

    Now Kilmeade has released a statement on Twitter, telling viewers he
    wanted to make sure they were aware it “wasn’t real.”

    Bubba Wallace's garage pull was a noose
    Covington kids
    Gov. Witmer kidnapping plot
    Kavanaugh rape
    Trump piss tape
    Covid lab leak was a right wing conspiracy theory

    If you get vaccinated you won't catch Covid.
    If you are vaccinated you can't spread Covid
    Trump used tear gas to clear a crowd for a Bible photo op
    "Don't Say Gay" was written into a bill
    "Putin's Price Hike"
    Ivermectin is a horse dewormer and not for humans
