Fox News Host Dana Perino Offers Praise to ‘Amazing’ Hillary Clinton
Fox News host and former George W. Bush administration official Dana Perino turned heads and drew a rash of negative responses on social media for taking part in a Clinton Global Initiative event and praising former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
According to a video clip posted online, Perino, who was on hand to introduce Hillary, described her as “amazing.”
In the clip, Perino called the former U.S. senator from New York “the amazing Secretary Hillary Clinton” before shaking her hand on stage.
Just a week before the GOP debate, Fox’s Dana Perino hosted a panel at the Clinton Foundation gala and introduced “the amazing Secretary Hillary Clinton”

According to journalist Jordan Schachtel, Perino also “hosted a panel last week for the Clinton Foundation’s Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) annual conference.”
“Perino hosted and participated in a session titled, “Journalism on the Front Lines: How Supporting a Strong, Free Press Strengthens Democratic Societies Worldwide.” The panel was rather uneventful, and filled with lots of Russia bashing and moral grandstanding,” he added.
Social media users vented their surprise and disdain for the incident.’
“Well, Hillary IS amazing; amazingly evil and amazingly corrupt,” wrote one.
“Salute to her master. [Perino] is a Bush disciple,” another noted.
“Dana Perino will go where the money pulls her,” another user on X added.
“As [Dan Bongino] would say— many republicans are really democrats, but no democrats are republicans,” said another.
Top-rated SiriusXM podcaster and former Fox News star Megyn Kelly blasted two-time Democratic presidential loser Hillary and far-left MSNBC host Rachel Maddow for their on-air behavior following former President Donald Trump’s fourth indictment.
During a show segment, Clinton and Maddow broke out in laughter over the charges and appeared to indicate that more could be on the way.
In addition, Maddow claimed that Trump’s questioning of the election results was somehow injurious to democracy while refusing to acknowledge that her guest, the former secretary of state, repeatedly claimed after she lost to Trump in 2016 that he “stole” the election from her — a false claim that Maddow and other left-wing cable news hosts repeated ad nauseum for years.
The back-and-forth banter infuriated Kelly.
“Can I tell you…that was a disgusting display by both women on the set,” she began during a segment of her show.
“I would vote for Ron DeSantis over Joe Biden any day of the week — I’ve made that clear,” she continued, noting that during a previous interview with the Florida governor and current GOP presidential candidate, she asked him tough questions that she believed he had some difficulty in answering.
“He stood his own,” she said, growing visibly agitated. “That’s what a journalist does. That’s what your obligation is as a member of the media! You failed, Rachel Maddow! You failed! I don’t care how much they give you, $30 million a year, you’re not worth thirty cents!”
“That was an embarrassment!” Kelly added, referencing the Clinton interview. “You fell down on the job, you embarrassed yourself and your network, and you ceded the entire discussion to a dishonest broker who sent us down this disgusting path that we’re now on! Where everybody denies everybody’s the real president!
“Shame on you both!” Kelly added.

Grabien founder Tom Elliot put together a “supercut” of video clips showing Maddow and other left-wing journalists and Democrats complaining that Trump “weaponized” the Justice Department to go after his “political enemies,” the Bidens — while contrasting those clips with others showing Joe Biden’s Justice Department actually prosecuting Trump.
SUPERCUT!

Clinton and most Democrats claimed, for years, after the 2016 election that Trump had Russian help to “steal” it from her. Several investigations later, including an 18-month probe by then-special counsel Robert Mueller, failed to produce any evidence of the claim.
In fact, GOP investigators, as well as former special counsel John Durham, uncovered evidence that the “Russian collusion” narrative was a fabricated narrative put out by Clinton’s failed 2016 campaign.
