On Monday, March 22, Fox News began circulating criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris for not saluting the military honor guard as she boarded Air Force Two.

The Fox report claimed the video showed Harris "appearing to break with precedent and failing to salute the honor guard," a sure sign of disrespect for the military in their eyes.


But the news network knows as well as anyone that the Vice President exists outside of the military chain of command. Returning salutes is not only a non-requirement for the VP—it's actually somewhat incorrect.

Twitter called Fox News out on their misleading report.



Though Mike Pence and Joe Biden were both known to salute the honor guard during their time as VP, Republican Dick Cheney often did not.



Many online accused the Fox report of being a baseless attack with racial undertones.



Even if Harris did "break precedent," as Fox News described, this is hardly a matter worth being worked up over.



Fox News seriously needs to get a fact-checker on the payroll to examine some of their articles before they're released.

Fox News Host Slammed After Claiming That James Talarico Is A Literal 'Demon' In Unhinged Rant

Ever since progressive Texas Democratic state Representative James Talarico announced his intention to run for Republican Senator John Cornyn's seat, the GOP has seemingly lost their collective minds over the news. Once Talarico became the Democratic nominee, the Republican attacks against him became increasingly desperate and bizarre.

Conservatives in and out of Texas have accused Talarico of being a vegan, gay, transgender, questioned his masculinity, declared he was destined for Hell, prayed for his death, scoured his social media to create AI videos, and labeled him Tala-freako in an attempt to discredit the devout Christian and theologian.
