Newsmax guest calls out network for lying to its own viewers live on Newsmax
Live from Newsmax, it s . a call-out!
David Litt, former speechwriter for former President Barack Obama, called out Newsmax on Monday for pushing false claims about the 2020 presidential election â while live on Newsmax. He unexpectedly got his dig in during a segment where he was asked to talk about Elon Musk hosting
Saturday Night Live over the weekend. What happened on
SNL this weekend was that people made stuff up and then said it on television like it s true, Litt said. And that actually happens pretty frequently in American TV. For example, in 2020, Dominion Voting Systems sued Newsmax over its false claims about election fraud. Newsmax was lying to its own viewers, and Newsmax had to settle that lawsuit.

GOP s Adam Kinzinger says Kevin McCarthy dismissed his warnings about potential Jan. 6 violence
May 10, 2021
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) said Monday that he tried and failed to warn his Republican colleagues about politically-inspired violence ahead of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
A few days before Jan. 6, Kinzinger tweeted, he told House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) during a conference call that Republican rhetoric, including McCarthy s own, about the presidential election and former President Donald Trump s baseless claims of fraud would have violent consequences. But McCarthy, Kinzinger, said, quickly dismissed his concerns and rushed to the next question, acknowledging Kinzinger s words with only a simple, ok, Adam.
