Newsmax Anchor's Latest Tweets Were So Bad Even The Far-Right Network Is Reviewing Them

Newsmax Anchor's Latest Tweets Were So Bad Even The Far-Right Network Is Reviewing Them

We've all tweeted something we regret at one time or another, but some of us tweet things so controversial they come back to haunt us.

And then on an entire other level is Newsmax host Greg Kelly, whose recent tweets are so off-the-charts even the ultra-far-right network has stated it is "reviewing the matter."


It all began when Kelly posted two tweets over the weekend in which he said his military service felt more worthwhile because his leaders and bosses in the service were White.

In the first of the tweets, Kelly called military service "a major pain," but that working with White men made it all a little easier.

"I will tell you what took 'the sting out of it'... I knew there was a Secretary of Defense who was White, just like me! Made a big difference with 'morale'"

Not content with that, Kelly posted a similar tweet about former Democratic President Bill Clinton's time as Commander-in-Chief.

"Just knowing that President Clinton... was a Caucasian male made it 'all worthwhile'--ask any White male officer who served under him."

Kelly went on to say he and his fellow officers were "so appreciative of [Clinton's] Race."

In a statement, Newsmax claimed Kelly's tweets were sarcastic attempts to "indicate his opposition to racism."

But they also said they are "reviewing" Kelly's Twitter posts.

"We at Newsmax never countenance the posting of racist views or views that appeal to racists. We are currently reviewing the matter."

For his part, Kelly responded to the kerfuffle with the most laughably cliché response possible.

Being a Marine, you see, "had nothing to do with RACE," and Kelly can't possibly be racist, because New York City's first Black mayor officiated at his wedding.

So there!

Kelly's follow-up did little to ingratiate him to folks on Twitter.









Kelly's most recent dust-up follows comments he made on Friday in which he claimed White people are presently "at the bottom of the heap" in America.

Jesse Watters Reveals Eyeroll-Worthy Reason He Wants Democrats To Win The Midterms

Fox News talking head and MAGA Republican President Donald Trump loyalist Jesse Watters stated on Fox News' The Five that he wants Democrats to win the House of Representatives in the midterm elections.

While plenty of people share that sentiment—as well as wanting Democrats to win in the Senate—it's probably not for the same reason Watters gave.

TikToker's Viral Video Comparing Passages From The Bible To Socialism Has People Nodding Hard

America has spent centuries working out this whole church-and-state separation thing, and judging by literally any comment section involving the Bible and politics, we remain one toxic group project away from getting an F.

Comedian Danny Killea put that tension to the test in an August TikTok, quizzing viewers on whether a quote came from the Bible or a socialist leader. Standing beside a TV displaying his homemade quiz, Killea turned a simple slideshow into TikTok’s most politically dangerous PowerPoint presentation.

Someone Left A Hilarious Letter At The Grave Of The British General Who Burned Down The White House In 1814

A grave located in the Old Burying Ground in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, of a British military leader from Northern Ireland, who commanded in the War of 1812, has become a bit more popular as of late, especially with tourists from the United States.

British Major General Robert Ross was killed by a sniper during the Battle of Baltimore in September 1814 and his body was preserved in 129 gallons of Jamaican rum on a British ship so he could be returned to Ireland for burial. However, the Battle of New Orleans prevented that journey and he was instead interred in Halifax with full military honors on September 29, 1814.
