Coverage of White House improvements earned a Fox News anchor a new nickname and hefty criticism as President Donald Trump declared, \u201cEven Chris Wallace was better \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Between regular call-ins dating back to before he formally entered politics and routine poaching of on-air talent for administration roles, the chief executive has long demonstrated an interest in the success of Fox News. Over the weekend, he raised doubts about the direction of \u201cFox News Sunday\u201d after coverage of construction of the new White House East Wing landed anchor Shannon Bream a scathing rebuke and the nickname \u201cMilktoast.\u201d<\/p>\n

Following an earlier post, the president took to Truth Social Sunday evening to point out, \u201cDuring Shannon Bream\u2019s show they showed pictures of the Military Complex\/Ballroom site at the White House. Unfortunately, the pictures were months old, before much work had been started.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow the hardest work is substantially complete, with work on the roof\/DronePort to begin very shortly. Why didn\u2019t Shannon Bream, \u2018Milktoast\u2019 to her friends, show the updated pictures instead of ones that were so old and irrelevant?\u201d asked Trump as he asserted as aired footage was dated May 19, \u201cHer show, Fox News Sunday, is so biased against MAGA, \u2018TRUMP,\u2019 and Republicans, that it is ridiculous!\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Before appearing to rope in Bret Baier and unnamed \u201cothers,\u201d the president harkened back to biases of old as he recalled the previous \u201cFox News Sunday\u201d host.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven Chris Wallace was better, and he was really bad (WHERE IS CHRIS WALLACE?). Also, she, Brett B, and others should stop showing Fake Polls \u2014 They\u2019re just embarrassing themselves. It reminds me of the November 5, 2024 Presidential Election, just prior to winning IN A LANDSLIDE, including 7 out of 7 Swing States, the Popular Vote, 86% of the Counties, and the Electoral College, 312 to 226!\u201d concluded Trump.<\/p>\n

Earlier on Sunday afternoon, the president described watching Bream as \u201clike watching the Worst of Fake News CNN.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know Shannon, but she always seems to pick guests, charts, and \u2018polls\u2019 that are negative, never talking about all of the incredible things that the Trump Administration has done \u2026\u201d he went on as he called her out for showcasing allegedly \u201chostile guests, and having losers\u201d on such as Juan Williams and Jessica Tarlov. He further stated her \u201c\u2018show\u2019 is beyond redemption.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

During the latest installment of \u201cFox News Sunday,\u201d Bream sat with Attorney General Todd Blanche and asked the nation\u2019s top cop about the 2-1 vote from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit that halted construction at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., barring congressional approval amid ongoing litigation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t believe we have to go to Congress,\u201d reminded Blanche after being asked about taking that route. \u201cWe believe Congress has already given us the authority to do what we\u2019re doing. Many presidents have done a tremendous amount of work to the White House, as they should, and Congress has authorized them to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n
