President Donald Trump routinely attacks the free press as the "fake news media" and the "enemy of the people."

Occasionally he even targets a network that constantly takes his side: Fox News.

Such was the case on Sunday afternoon when Trump tweeted that Fox News host Chris Wallace was "obnoxious" and beneath the legacy of his father.

The comment came after Wallace interviewed Republican Congressman from Louisiana Steve Scalise, in which he grilled the Congressman about the ongoing impeachment inquiry against the President.

Now, Wallace's colleague at Fox News—Neil Cavuto—is clapping back, reminding Trump that journalists aren't required to praise him, but to hold him accountable.

Watch below.

Neil Cavuto Fires Back at Trump: Mr. President, Fox News Doesn't Work for Youwww.youtube.com

Cavuto didn't flinch in using the President's phrase of "fake news" to call him out:

"What makes something fake news? I would assume if the news being reported is fake or wrong and the person presenting that news knows it is fake or wrong, that is bad."
"But what if the news being reported is accurate, the facts are good, they just sound bad?" he said. "My colleague Chris Wallace has discovered again the president doesn't distinguish."

He then pointed out to Trump some of journalism's most basic tenets:

"We can't please all. The best we can do as journalists is be fair to all, including you, Mr. President."
"That's not fake doing that, what is fake is not doing that, what is fake is saying Fox never used to do that. Mr. President, we have always done that."

Fox News is by no means known for its credibility, but people applauded Cavuto's willingness to call out the President.





This isn't the first time Cavuto called out Trump for his attacks on the press.

He reminded Trump this past August that journalists "don't work for" the President. He's highlighted Trump's "swamp" of corruption as well.

If you believe in the Freedom of the Press and that news that doesn't flatter the President it not "fake news," this shirt is available here.

GOP Senator Faces MAGA Backlash Over Plan To Sell Millions Of Acres Of Public Land

Utah Republican Senator Mike Lee is facing harsh criticism—including from Team MAGA—over his proposal to sell off millions of acres of public land in the American West owned by the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service to supposedly create more affordable housing.

Lee claimed in his proposal that there is an "extensive process for interested parties like States and local governments to nominate land for disposal to meet housing and community needs," noting that it specifically exempts national parks, monuments, and federally designated wilderness areas from potential land sales.

Trump Ripped For Complaining That Americans Get 'Too Many' Federal Holidays Off Work

While it was ultimately former President Joe Biden who established Juneteenth as a federal holiday, President Donald Trump—who once campaigned on that promise—took to Truth Social on Juneteenth to whine about the number of "non-working holidays" Americans get, claiming that it costs businesses "billions of dollars."

Juneteenth is derived from June 19, 1865, when Union troops led by General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and declared that all enslaved African Americans in the state were free.
