Right-wing media team up with the Trump administration to sell regime change in Cuba
Conservative pundits have spent months agitating for regime change

Right-wing media figures are helping administration officials lay the groundwork for regime change in Cuba in what would potentially be the latest unprovoked act of military aggression by the Trump White House.
MAGA media figures have long embraced a Trumpy version of the Monroe Doctrine, the notion that the United States has the right to exert dominance over the Western Hemisphere. As the second Trump administration has pursued more openly imperialist ambitions, many conservative pundits have cheered on the White House every step of the way, including when the administration started to threaten Cuba.
If Trump does attack Cuba, it may be an attempt to replicate what he sees as the successful operation to capture Nicolás Maduro, the former president of Venezuela — in contrast to the administration’s increasingly unpopular war on Iran.
On May 20, deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller appeared on Fox News’ Jesse Watters Primetime to discuss the Justice Department’s indictment of former Cuban President Raúl Castro.
“Today, finally, accountability is coming for Castro,” Miller said, before offering the administration’s case for escalation.
“Cuba, positioned just a 45 minute flight from American shores, has been a staging ground for America's adversaries for decades,” Miller said. “It is the last outpost of communism. It is the last outpost of the Cold War. American presidents for generations have tried to deal with the problem, the threat of this communist foothold just miles away from American shores.”
“And President Trump,” Miller argued, “has brought us closer than ever to the day when Cuba will be free and when Cuba will no longer be a threat to America but Cuba will be a friend and partner to America, which is essential for our national security.”
Watters responded: “Absolutely, and it will be a historic achievement if that does happen.”

A week earlier, Fox’s Sean Hannity interviewed Secretary of State Marco Rubio, a longtime advocate for regime change in Cuba, aboard Air Force One.
“It’s my personal opinion, you cannot change the economic trajectory of Cuba as long as the people who are in charge of it now are in charge of it. That’s what’s going to have to change,” Rubio said.
Hannity agreed and speculated about the possibilities for U.S. capital to flood the country. “If these people are not in charge, I mean, I can envision American wealth and companies — it could become the destination.”

Amid a report that the Cuban government was considering using drones to attack the U.S. base at Guantanamo Bay or Key West, Florida, MAGA streamer Benny Johnson speculated the leaked intelligence could be a “pretext” for launching a war — though he appeared to support the administration’s overall goal.
“I don't buy this,” Johnson said. “Right? Like, why would Cuba ever consider doing this unless it was a false flag — unless it's a false flag that's getting set up by the American administration, and that's what I believe that this is.”
Despite acknowledging the intelligence could be false, Johnson concluded the segment by seemingly endorsing military action.
“Expect this to pop off any day now,” he said. “Hopefully, Iran signs a peace deal, and then we can get Cuba done, as they say.”

For months, some of the loudest voices suggesting regime change in Cuba have come from right-wing Spanish-language media, a trend that has continued into May.
On May 5, Fox Noticias host Andrea Linares said that before there could be any foreign investment in Cuba, “there would have to be a total regime change.”
On May 19, Augustin Acosta, co-host of Actualidad Radio's Cada Tarde, argued that if Trump “believes he can fix Cuba while leaving the regime in power, the president is either completely wrong or has started to lose his mind.”
“In Cuba there is nothing that can be fixed — absolutely nothing that can be fixed — while leaving the dictatorship in power,” Acosta added. “That is absolutely impossible.”
Still, there are already some signs of discontent in right-wing media. Newsmax host Rob Finnerty questioned the wisdom of “another foreign entanglement” in addition to the Venezuela operation and the Iran war, which has caused gas prices to skyrocket across the country.
“According to two new polls — and say what you want about the polling, but it's not good,” Finnerty said. “People are clearly losing their patience.”
He added: “I think people struggle with how this is America First when gas is $4.55 a gallon right now.”

ANDREA LINARES (HOST): Cuba is afraid that what is happening in Venezuela will also happen to them, and it makes sense. The communist dictatorship in Cuba has been on the U.S. agenda for decades, and right now, there is enough military power in the Caribbean to invade any country. So, could it be that Venezuela is just a starting point for the improvements President Donald Trump wants to see in Latin America? Without a doubt it is a personal issue for Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and it’s because his parents are Cuban. The communist elites of Cuba use lies to keep their citizens from having hope. They paint everything as part of an imperialist intervention and an unacceptable aggression.

Fox praised and validated Trump's legally questionable boat strikes in the Caribbean
Some at the network have been pressing for further US intervention – even regime change in Venezuela
Written by Jack Winstanley & Emma Mae Weber
Published 10/29/25
Fox News has celebrated the Trump administration's lethal strikes against supposed drug smuggling boats in the Caribbean, despite concerns from legal experts over the strikes’ legality and bipartisan warnings from congressional members that they have seen no evidence to support the administration's claims that the strikes are targeting drug traffickers.
Along with championing the strikes — many of which have targeted boats coming from Venezuela — as “pretty spectacular” and a “great move” and praising the administration’s “aggressive” approach, some Fox figures and guests have gone so far as to suggest they would support regime change in Venezuela, claiming that the Maduro government is “part of the cartel.”
\Trump’s attacks on boats in the Caribbean draw legal questions from experts and legislators
- The Trump administration has conducted numerous strikes in the Caribbean, attacking at least 13 boats and killing at least 51 people, claiming they are targeting the drug trade. President Donald Trump said of the strikes, many of which targeted Venezuelan boats, “It is violent and it is very — it’s amazing, the weaponry.” He has also hinted at further escalation, saying, “The land is going to be next.” Trump additionally authorized covert CIA action in the region, while the buildup of U.S. military assets in the region grows. The Guardian, [10/28/25; AP News, 10/24/25; YouTube,

The Guardian, [10/28/25; AP News, 10/24/25; YouTube,
- :{:{Numerous legal experts say the killings are illegal.As The New York Times writes, “A broad range of specialists in laws governing the use of lethal force have called Mr. Trump’s orders to the military patently illegal. … The administration insists that the killings are lawful, invoking legal terms like ‘self-defense’ and ‘armed conflict.’ But it has offered no legal argument explaining how to bridge the conceptual gap between drug trafficking and associated crimes, as serious as they are, and the kind of armed attack to which those terms can legitimately apply.”}:
NPR noted that the Trump administration “has designated several South and Central American drug cartels and gangs as foreign terrorist organizations, but Congress has not authorized the use of force against them” and quoted a former State Department legal adviser, who said, “Outside of armed conflict, there is a word for the premeditated killing of people, and that word is 'murder.'" He added, “And just because the administration puts together this fig leaf of a legal justification does not legitimize these premeditated killings in the Caribbean.” The New York Times, [10/24/25; NPR, 10/24/25]}:
- Trump has repeatedly claimed that the strikes are saving thousands of Americans from drug overdoses, but there’s no evidence to support the claim. According to Trump, “Every boat that we knock out we save 25,000 American lives.” Trump has used this figure multiple times to defend the strikes, but the administration has not provided evidence showing drugs were destroyed during the attacks. Additionally, as PolitiFact notes, drug experts have said it is difficult to calculate how many lives are saved as a result of drug interception efforts but that Trump’s claim is “mathematically dubious.” “For Trump’s statement to be accurate, the drugs on five boats would have been responsible for 125,000 deaths, nearly double the number of overdose deaths in one year,” PolitiFact wrote. PolitiFact, [10/16/25]
- The strikes have drawn bipartisan concern, as legislators question the Trump administration's claims and their lack of supporting evidence. On Fox News Sunday, according to The Hill, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) stated that Congress has seen “no evidence presented” to support the administration's claims that the targets are drug traffickers. Similarly, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) stated that the evidence he has seen in support of the strikes “does not back up” the administration's claims that the boats were transporting fentanyl. The Hill, [10/26/25]
- ## Fox figures and guests cheered on the strikes and celebrated the administration's actions
- Fox host Laura Ingraham called the strikes “pretty spectacular” and concluded, “I love this” and “Trump is actually trying to do something.” Former Army Special Forces member Jim Hanson said the “reward” for bringing “that poison into our country” is “getting turned into an oil slick on the Caribbean.” Jason Redman, a former Navy SEAL, applauded the U.S. for taking the “lead” and said we have to “break the will” of “individuals who are willing to go out in those boats and smuggle drugs into America.” Fox News, *The Ingraham Angle*, [10/24/25]
- In the week prior, Ingraham stated that “Trump's working overtime on issues that really matter,” such as “taking out deadly threats before they even arrive on our shores.” Ingraham played a video of a boat being bombed, adding her own “boom” sound effect. After playing a bleeped clip of Trump saying Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro “doesn’t want to f— around with the United States,” Ingraham concluded, “Bombs and the f-bombs. At least we know President Trump will never stop trying to save American lives.” Fox News, *The Ingraham Angle*, [10/17/25]
- OnAmerica’s Newsroom, former FBI agent Dan Brunner called the strikes a “great move,” adding, “Let’s go on offense. Let’s push the envelope.” Brunner added that “we need to utilize” the FBI, Homeland Security, and CIA. He said: “We’ve got a lot of experience in conducting investigations into these cartels. … Blowing up a boat, yes, that stops that shipment. But we need to find out where all the shipments are coming from and going through the root system.” Fox News, *America’s Newsroom*, [10/17/25]
- After a guest argued Trump should “keep pushing forward” as it's “the only way these traffickers will stop,” Fox host Lara Trump replied: “I think a lot of people agree with you. … Fortunately we have a president who is doing just that, meeting them with strength.” Trump also praised her father-in-law for dubbing his targets “ISIS of the Western hemisphere,” saying, “What a great name for these narco-terrorists. That’s exactly what I think they should be identified as.” Fox News, *My View with Lara Trump*, [10/25/25]
- Host Jesse Watters described a strike by saying: “Trump just smoked another coke boat in the Caribbean, and he’s just getting started.” In the segment that followed, correspondent David Spunt reported: “We can confirm the Pentagon deploying massive help in support of the operation to root out drugs being smuggled into the United States.” The chyron read, “Pentagon drops the hammer on smugglers.” Fox News, *Jesse Watters Primetime*, [10/24/25]
- OnAmerica’s Newsroom, former acting Drug Enforcement Administration Administrator Derek Maltz called fentanyl “a weapon of mass destruction” and said he’s “very thankful” for the administration's “aggressive” approach. He also claimed that “of course it's fair game” to attack cartels on land. Fox News, *America’s Newsroom*, [10/24/25]
- OnFox Noticias, guest Jesus Romero claimed that Trump is deploying “a military contingent to carry a message, not only to President Maduro, but also to all the criminals.” Romero added, “This is the message, and this is the response of the president of the United States“ to “return peace and tranquility and to stop the flow of drug trafficking into the United States.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [9/26/25]
- ## Fox justified the strikes and repeated Trump's unproven claim that they save large numbers of American lives
- Fox & Friendsco-host Ainsley Earhardt repeated the claim that “every boat that we strike is 25,000 American lives that have been saved.” Earhardt elaborated, saying, “We’re talking about … fentanyl pills, we’re talking about fentanyl powder, illegal guns, methamphetamine, cocaine, pounds of heroin.” Co-host Lawrence Jones, taking aim at naysayers, added, “You are going to have to choose a side. Are you going to be on the side of the cartels, which is the new ISIS, or are you going to be side of the American people?” Fox News, *Fox & Friends*, [10/24/25]
- Host Laura Ingraham claimed, “Countless American lives will be saved because of our aggressive posture.” Ingraham praised Trump, saying he is “working overtime … targeting drug cartels that poison and kill hundreds of thousands of Americans with fentanyl and cocaine.” Fox News, *The Ingraham Angle*, [10/23/25]
- OnThe Story with Martha MacCallum, Derek Maltz claimed of the cartels: “We’ve never had any terrorist organizations, even if you combine Al Qaeda, ISIS, Hezbollah, killing this many Americans.” He also argued of the supposed drug trafficking, “It's not even just a threat to our country, but once again President Trump is helping keep the world safe.” Fox News, *The Story with Martha MacCallum*, [10/20/25]
- Fox Noticiashost Rachel Campos-Duffy said, “If you are a criminal trafficking lethal drugs into this country that kill its people, you will face lethal consequences.” She added that “President Trump is not sorry” about the boat strike. Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [9/4/25]
- ## Fox hosts and guests called for further violence and US intervention – with some even supporting Venezuelan regime change
- OnThe Five, co-host Jesse Watters said the boat strikes are “more about regime change in Venezuela,” adding later, “There is going to be major action against Maduro pretty soon.” Watters said the action might be “a layup” and if it is, and “Maduro is deposed, we’re basically Monroe Doctrine-ing — we call it the Don-roe doctrine-ing — out of Latin America and China and Russia,” which would add up to Trump “wielding a lot of power internationally.” Fox News, *The Five*, [10/16/25]
- Jim Shedd, a former DEA agent, argued on Fox that “we should be striking the Venezuelan military outposts.” Shedd added that “the national guard of Venezuela and the Venezuelan army and the air force has to be destroyed because they are co-conspirators in the distribution of narcotics into this country, which has been causing death and havoc for decades.” Fox News, *The Story with Martha MacCallum*, [10/24/25]
- OnFox Noticias, Jovel Alvarez, an independent journalist, said, “I hope that President Donald Trump takes the initiative to remove Maduro from power.” He added that Trump could “practically” become the “liberator of Venezuela.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/15/25]
- OnFox & Friends, retired Gen. Jack Keane said of Venezuela, “I think it’s high time we went after this thing that was polluting our population so much.” Keane argued that the Venezuelan government is “supporting the cartel in the sense the government is part of the cartel. Because they take the revenue from that source.” Fox News, *Fox & Friends*, [10/24/25]
- OnSunday Night In America with Trey Gowdy, after Rep. Maria Salazar (R-FL) mentioned that Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Machado is planning to “open the oil rigs” to U.S. companies, host Trey Gowdy mentioned that “she may be leading that country here in the not-too-distant future.” Fox News, *Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy*, [10/26/25]
- OnFox Report, Manhattan Institute fellow Daniel Di Martino described Trump’s actions against Venezuela as “the same as fighting ISIS,” arguing the U.S. needs “to do everything possible.” He said: “And if that means striking inside Venezuela where Maduro is, who is a cartel leader, that the U.S. government doesn't recognize as president, this is the same as fighting ISIS, except that they’re actually bringing drugs and terrorism to America directly right now.” Di Martino also claimed, without citing evidence, that “80% of Venezuelans support” the strikes. He added that he is “very happy about hearing about the CIA operations in Venezuela, about bringing the carrier.” Fox News, *Fox Report with John Scott*, [10/26/25]

Right-wing media quickly found a wide range of people and institutions to blame for Charlie Kirk's death
Written by Gideon Taaffe, Sage Hodil & Torri Lonergan
Published 09/18/25
After Charlie Kirk’s killing on September 10, some in right-wing media called for retaliation against left-wing groups and other targets of their ire, and President Donald Trump’s administration has responded by attacking the left even more broadly.
Right-wing media have rushed to blame a variety of factors for Kirk’s death. Conservative media personalities called Democrats “the party of murder” while blaming “the left”, blamed rhetoric describing some on the right as “Nazis and fascists,” claimed the shooter was “radicalized” by college education and “left wing propaganda,” declared “CNN has blood on its hands,” and labeled the shooting “an act of LGBT terrorism” and an “attack on Christianity.”
As authorities investigate the motivation behind the killing, the Trump administration has started attacking left-leaning organizations and right-wing media are calling for retaliation}:
- The man accused of killing Charlie Kirk has been charged with aggravated murder, but authorities “have not revealed a clear motive.” The Associated Press, [9/16/25]
- Some right-wing media have urged the Trump administration to seek retribution for Kirk’s killing by using the government to attack left-leaning groups and individuals. Trump ally and right-wing podcaster Laura Loomer called for Trump to “shut down, defund, & prosecute every single Leftist organization”; Infowars' Harrison Smith wrote that we “need the Insurrection Act” and should “imprison radical leftists”; and Michael Savage said on Newsmax that Trump’s Justice Department needs to “unravel” the American Civil Liberties Union, and “you’ve got to bust them on the RICO.” Twitter/X, [9/10/25, 9/10/25; Newsmax, Carl Higbie Frontline, 9/15/25]
- The Trump administration has moved to crack down on the left in response to Kirk’s death. According to The New York Times, “President Trump and his top advisers threatened on Monday to unleash the power of the federal government to punish what they alleged was a left-wing network that funds and incites violence, seizing on Charlie Kirk’s killing to make broad and unsubstantiated claims about their political opponents.” ./ ” The New York Times, [9/15/25; The Wall Street Journal, 9/15/25]
- ## Right-wing media personalities called Democrats the “party of murder” and a “death cult” while blaming “the left” for Kirk's killing
- Laura Loomer: “I really do believe with all of my heart that majority of the left is like this, I do. I believe that the Democrat party is the party of murder.”She continued, “I really, truly believe that we have crossed that point where one side of the aisle has human decency and the other side of the aisle is completely far gone.” Rumble, *Loomer Unleashed*, [9/11/25]
- Fox News guest Julian Epstein: “Elements of the Democratic Party and the progressive left are moving increasingly toward a sort of a death cult.” Epstein claimed that “to compare your opponents to the world's worst actors, Hitler and Mussolini, by calling them fascists, which implies a violent response from people on the left, and the fact that Democratic leaders don’t see this connection today is beyond me.” Fox News, *The Will Cain Show*, [9/16/25]
- Fox News contributor Kaylee McGhee White said, “It’s completely fair to pin this on the Democratic Party.” McGhee White claimed Democrats’ rhetoric “radicalized” Kirk’s alleged shooter, adding that they “never want to take responsibility when some people decide to take their rhetoric seriously.” Fox News, *America Reports*, [9/16/25]
- Fox News host Jesse Watters claimed that because “the left … can’t win an argument, they’re trying to kill,” and said that “we have to politically destroy the sick movement that’s giving birth to these killers.”Watters continued, “I don’t care what you have to do — we can love them, but we don't give them any quarter. Enough is enough. This ends now. … It can be killed. Figuratively.” Fox News, *The Five*, [9/12/25]
- The Manhattan Institute’s Chris Rufo suggested the “radical Left” has caused “a wave of violence and terror” and called for arrests of “all of those who are responsible for this chaos.” According to Rufo, “The last time the radical Left orchestrated a wave of violence and terror, J. Edgar Hoover shut it all down within a few years. It is time, within the confines of the law, to infiltrate, disrupt, arrest, and incarcerate all of those who are responsible for this chaos.” Twitter/X, [9/10/25]
- Fox contributor Mollie Hemingway brought up “rising rhetoric and funding of groups that are pushing an anti-American ideology” in discussing Kirk’s death, saying he was “very powerful in speaking against it but other people need to take those threats seriously.” Hemingway added: “We have very powerful, well-funded interests really trying to destroy the country and they need to be investigated, their networks need to be rooted out, and they need to be dealt with as seriously as can be.” Fox News, *The Story with Martha MacCallum*, [9/11/25]
- The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh said Kirk was killed by “a leftist militant who had been radicalized by left wing propaganda.” Walsh: “There is now no doubt (as if there was any doubt) that this was a targeted political assassination by a leftist militant who had been radicalized by left wing propaganda. Political violence is nearly exclusively a left wing problem. It is a tool of their trade.” Twitter/X, [9/12/25]
- ## Right-wing media suggested college “radicalized” the alleged shooter with “left-wing ideology” and made him “primed for violent acts”
- Podcast host Megyn Kelly said, “He went to college. Guess what college does? It radicalizes young people.”Kelly continued, “I don't know what happened to this particular man, but that is what college does.” Later in the episode, Kelly added, “It doesn't look like this kid was political one way or the other, and then he went off to the indoctrination factory that is college and appears to have had a mental break. … The left-wing ideology that is pushed on students on every college campus in this country is radicalizing millions of them.” SiriusXM, *The Megyn Kelly Show*, [9/12/25, 9/12/25]
- Fox News’ Rachel Campos-Duffy claimed the suspected shooter was “radicalized” in college. Campos-Duffy stated, “You heard the family members say that this man became more political — this young man became more political in recent years. Well, what did he do in recent years? He went to college. That’s where kids are getting radicalized. It’s not just online — our campuses are where a lot of radicalization, hate, intolerance starts from.” Fox News, *The Will Cain Show*, [9/12/25]
- On his radio show, Sean Hannity advocated for defunding universities, calling them “liberal indoctrination centers” that teach students “nothing except how to be a crazy radical leftist.” Premiere Radio Networks, *The Sean Hannity Show*, [9/11/25]
- Fox News host Mark Levin suggested Marxist “influence in our colleges and universities” contributed to Kirk’s killing. Levin stated, “We have influence in our faculty, influence in our colleges and universities, influence now in our public schools of alien ideologies. Now, Marxism preaches violent revolution. … Radical Islam preaches violent revolution.” Fox News, *America Reports*, [9/12/25]
- Fox Noticias co-host Julie Banderas said, “The assassination exposes the intolerance toward free speech and new ideas that has grown on college campuses.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [9/12/25]
- Conspiracy theorist Dinesh D’Souza claimed “we need to put radical academia on trial” for radicalizing Kirk’s alleged shooter. He posted: “Tyler Robinson is every conservative parent’s worst nightmare. Send your kid to college where he is radicalized into a violent ‘antifascist’ by the sly, scheming leftist professors. We need to put radical academia on trial along with its cherished product, Tyler Robinson.” Twitter/X, [9/12/25]
- Infowars host Alex Jones claimed Kirk’s alleged shooter was “Radicalized By The Left While At University & Primed For Violent Acts.” He posted: “Photos/Videos Emerge Of Charlie Kirk's Assassin As His Social Media Presence Is Scrubbed From Internet Evidence Suggests Tyler Robinson Was An Intelligent, Middle Class Kid Who Was Radicalized By The Left While At University & Primed For Violent Acts.” Twitter/X, [9/12/25]
- ## Right-wing media blamed trans people, calling Kirk’s shooting “an act of LGBT terrorism”
- The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh: “The assassination of Charlie Kirk was unequivocally an act of LGBT terrorism.”Walsh insisted, “Already, the evidence is overwhelming — Charlie was murdered by a leftist who was in a relationship with a man who identifies as transgender, a man who identifies as a woman.” The Daily Wire, *The Matt Walsh Show*, [9/15/25]
- On Fox, former Secret Service agent Charles Marino suggested “the transgender community” could be responsible for Kirk’s shooting because they wanted to “silence” him. “We’re told that in the area of opinions, people should not have differing opinions in this country,” Marino stated. “Now, the dangerous thing here with the transgender community is the way they are moving to silence those opinions. It is becoming more and more violent.” Fox News, *The Faulkner Focus*, [9/15/25]
- Newsmax host Greg Kelly claimed “a transgender situation” may have been the motive for Kirk's killing.Newsmax, *Greg Kelly Reports*, [9/15/25]
- :{Right-wing influencer Ian Miles Cheong: “A transgendered :{mutant }:murdered Charlie Kirk. Transgenderism must be banned, all trans people rounded up and forcibly institutionalized.” Twitter/X, [9/11/25]
- Self-described “prophet” Amanda Grace said Kirk’s killing “had to do with transgenderism” and the “false god” Ishtar.“Ishtar, the ancient entity that attempted to utilize Kamala Harris to put her in the highest seat of our land back in 2024, was involved in this attempt,” Grace argued. “Ishtar is a false god and a demon tethered to men dressing as women. Demons are violent. Transgenderism comes from that pagan, violent route. To serve their principality and powers and drive their agenda, they seek to shed blood.” Rumble, *Ark of Grace Ministries*, [9/11/25; Media Matters, 5/30/24]
- ## Some claimed the shooting was an “attack on Christianity,” arguing that Kirk was killed “because he was a devout Christian”
- America Firsthost Nick Fuentes argued, “He would go to these college campuses and proclaim the name of Jesus Christ. And ultimately, that is why he was killed.” Fuentes said, “When you look at his most vicious detractors, the people celebrating his death now, possibly, probably the gunman that killed him, they hated him because of his defense of Christian morality.” Rumble, *America First with Nick Fuentes*, [9/11/25]
- OnThe Will Cain Show, Fox host Rachel Campos-Duffy repeatedly declared Kirk’s killing was “an attack on Christians.” She added, “Make no mistake: The kind of attention that Jewish students are feeling — that kind of attacks that they feel and unsafe how they feel on campus — that’s been happening to college conservatives for a long time, which is why Charlie Kirk was on campus.” Fox News, *The Will Cain Show*, [9/12/25]
- Fox News political analyst Lisa Boothe claimed Kirk was “assassinated because he was a devout Christian.” Boothe stated, “Charlie wasn't murdered, wasn’t assassinated just for his political beliefs. He was assassinated for his faith. He was assassinated because he was a devout Christian, which was the basis for all of his beliefs. That is why he was assassinated.” Fox News, *America Reports*, [9/15/25]
- Rumble host Vince Coglianese argued, “This was also an attack on Christianity.”Coglianese explained, “Charlie Kirk was a spokesman for the word of God in everything that he did.” He continued, “Any attack on Charlie and the ideas that Charlie expresses is an attack on his innate Christianity. That is a hate crime insofar as anyone can establish one. There you go. It's an attack on a Christian for being Christian and for expressing that truth out loud. That man hated him for that.” Rumble, *Vince with Vince Coglianese*, [9/12/25]
- ## Others blamed Democratic rhetoric that described some conservatives as “Nazis and fascists”
- During an appearance on Fox News, Republican strategist Matt Whitlock said, “It's not a coincidence” that people “resort to violence” after hearing Democrats’ rhetoric about Donald Trump. Whitlock argued that when prominent Democrats refer to Trump as a fascist or compare him to Hitler, “That trickles down through social media, through the massive sort of wormhole of disinformation, to radicalize young people like this shooter who then wrote that on a bullet.” Fox News, *America Reports*, [9/15/25]
- On his radio show, Sean Hannity claimed that the shooter may have been radicalized by people calling conservatives “Nazis and fascists” and “Hitler and Stalin and Mussolini.”Hannity: “I think that all of us around this country really need moments of reflection, quiet reflection and introspection. And really need to dig deep into, you know, the words that are being used that we’ve become, as I say, numb to and that I would argue, at times, I believe for the weak minded or mentally ill people or people that, you know, can be convinced and indoctrinated into a belief system that they think they’re doing good if they harm the people that they’re being told repeatedly are Nazis and fascists and Hitler and Stalin and Mussolini.” Premiere Radio Networks, *The Sean Hannity Show*, [9/12/25]
- The Washington Examiner’s Salena Zito claimed that referring to a conservative as a “Nazi” is “a straight line to telling someone this person is bad and you can have a free-for-all with them.”Zito told Fox’s Will Cain: “If you call someone a Nazi or a fascist, you are invoking a term that means that this person is evil and bad and will do you harm and you better get to them first before they get you. It is a straight line to telling someone this person is bad and you can have a free-for-all with them. That’s just the facts. That is what they are doing.” Fox News, *The Will Cain Show*, [9/12/25]
- Watters argued that Democrats are intentionally “brainwashing an online army” when they refer to conservatives as fascists.Watters stated, “They know exactly what they're doing. They’re giving the crazy wing of their party permission to take a shot. They’re brainwashing an online army. The message is, these men are dangerous fascists, be a hero, take them out.” Fox News, *Jesse Watters Primetime*, [9/12/25]
- ## Right-wing personalities blamed the mainstream media for “dehumanizing” conservatives like Kirk, saying “CNN has blood on its hands”
- Real America’s Voice host Grant Stinchfield said “CNN has blood on its hands” for vilifying Kirk.“They encourage this kind of behavior,” Stinchfield added. “Do you think it’s a coincidence that somebody shoots and kills him after the left-wing media vilified Charlie Kirk for nearly 24 hours yesterday? I don’t think it’s a coincidence.” Real America's Voice, *America's Voice Live*, [9/10/25]
- Fox News host Greg Gutfeld: “If you subtract the media’s influence, this wouldn't have happened.” Gutfeld continued, “They were brainwashed. And the way that you brainwash somebody is through repetition. Nazi, Nazi, Nazi, fascist, fascist, fascist. That’s how you brainwash. So it’s almost like, shouldn't be surprising, that these things happen.” Fox News, *The Five*, [9/11/25]
- Right-wing talk show host Liz Wheeler claimed Kirk’s killing was due to hateful speech against Republicans from “MSM, the left, and Democrat politicians to the highest echelons.”She wrote: “Charlie Kirk was murdered because the MSM, the left, and Democrat politicians to the highest echelons—led by former President Biden & Vice President Kamala Harris— have spent the past decade dehumanizing & vilifying all Republicans, constantly, viciously, falsely accusing us of being Hitler, fascists, dictators, authoritarian, hateful, homophobic, xenophobic, transphobic bigots.” Twitter/X, [9/13/25]

Rachel Campos-Duffy says Shakira “left children traumatized”
February 3, 2025, edition of Fox Noticias
RACHEL CAMPOS DUFFY (ANCHOR): Catalina, mientras yo miraba su actuación, yo no podia evitar pensar de esos niños, de que podrían haber estado pensando de ver a su madre así, haciendo eso.
...
CATALINA STUBBE (DIRECTOR OF HISPANIC OUTREACH AT MOMS FOR LIBERTY): Para nada es apropiado, como dices tú. Para ver este de tipo de entretenimiento por televisión con los niños, obviamente está bien sensual, bien provocativo, y encima tiene un mensaje un poco mezclar la parte religiosa, los vestidos eclesiásticos con lo que es una danza bastante erótica, entonces crea como un choque de culturas, un choque de moralidad, porque precisamente hay como una tendencia un poco más satánica en general entre los artistas, pero ella dejó bien en claro que desde hace dieciocho años no regresaba a los Grammy, perdón, y que definitivamente iba dejar de que hablar.
RACHEL CAMPOS DUFFY: Si, lo hizo, pero yo creo que quizas dejo a los niños traumatizados, sus hijos.

Spanish-language conservative media downplay Trump’s mass deportation plan
Conservative TikTok personality Luis Sin Filtro: “If you are informed and have not committed any crimes in this country, you won't be affected negatively"

Published 12/18/24 mma
Conservative Spanish-language media personalities have been downplaying President-elect Donald Trump’s plans for mass deportations, claiming that Democrats and the media are fearmongering about Trump’s deportation scheme, which economists suggest would increase inflation as well as food and housing costs. These media figures have claimed that Trump “will not deport working immigrants” and that he is considering “immigration reform for all of those in the United States that are doing it right.”
In truth, Trump has vowed to stage the “largest deportation operation in American History,” and Tom Homan — the Project 2025 contributor and former Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting director who Trump selected to carry out this campaign — has claimed, “No one’s off the table.”
Recently, during an interview with NBC News’ Kristen Welker, Trump doubled down on his campaign promise to end birthright citizenship, falsely suggesting he could enact his plan through executive action and that he would “change” the 14th Amendment.
Rather than focusing on these claims, conservative personalities on social media turned attention to Trump’s claims that he was willing to “work something out” for Dreamers, immigrants who were brought to the US as minors and remain undocumented. Ignoring his previous failed attempt to gut the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program — which has provided benefits like temporary relief from deportation and work authorization to more than 835,000 migrants who came to the U.S. as children — conservative personalities argued Trump has “dismantled the narrative” that he is “racist.”
Downplaying Trump's plans for mass deportations
Conservative Spanish-language personalities are claiming that the left is “sowing fear” about Trump’s plans for mass deportations and that Trump “will not deport working migrants.”
- On Actualidad Radio’sCada Tarde, conservative personality Marian de la Fuente claimed, “There has been a lot of misinformation” about “family separation and kids and parents who will be deported.”She added, “This type of information, in the way the liberal networks are conveying it, should really be modified,” explaining that “they are obviously trying to sow fear.” Actualidad Radio, *Cada Tarde*, [11/12/24]
- During a guest appearance onFox Noticias, Voz Media political analyst Alfonso Aguilar argued that Democrats “want to sow fear.”He said that they “say this is an effort to deport people indiscriminately, that the country will be militarized, that we will have patrols of soldiers through urban migrant communities, and that is totally false.” He also claimed, “The armed forces will be used, or the national guard, but in a supporting role.” Fox Deportes,*Fox Noticias*,[11/20/24]
- On his Voz Media podcast, Aguilar claimed, “The left and many in the media are sowing fear” and that “they want to tell us the country is going to be militarized, that there will be mass indiscriminate deportations [and] that they will deport grandma.”He added, “That has become a Democratic talking point.” Aguilar made these claims in an episode where he interviewed Fox News contributor Sara Carter. YouTube[
- In a segment criticizingThe View’sAna Navarro’s claims that Trump’s plan for mass deportations “means grandmothers,”Fox Noticiashost Rachel Campos-Duffy claimed that “liberals are losing their mind over Trump’s new border czar.”During the segment, Campos-Duffy mistranslated an Axios headline that said, “Immigrant advocates mobilize against mass deportation,” to claim, “According to the media, immigration advocates are mobilizing against the plan to impose law and order at our borders.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [11/13/24; Axios, 11/12/24]
- On TikTok, Luis Sin Filtro, a conservative influencer with over 566,000 followers, argued that “it's obviously impossible” for the Trump administration to deport American citizens.He also claimed that Homan “has clearly and specifically said that threats to public safety will be the priority,” arguing, “It's most likely that if you find yourself in one of those raids, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. If you are informed and have not committed any crimes in this country, you won't be affected negatively. On the contrary, there is a very big chance for you to build your case in an immigration court and end up with a working permit.” [TikTok,11/12/24]
- PelucasGB, a conservative personality with over 56,300 followers, shared a video arguing that “Trump will not deport working immigrants” and that “Trump’s rhetoric has always been against criminals.” He also claimed that Trump could “pass immigration reform for all of those in the United States that are doing it right,” and that Trump “will be the one to make your dream of having status in the United States come true.” TikTok,[11/26/24]
Ignoring Trump's hostility to DACA
Despite Trump’s previous attempts to gut DACA, Spanish-language social media figures are claiming his comments on Meet the Press that he would potentially “work something out” for Dreamers “dismantled the narrative” that he is “racist” and “the most anti-immigrant man ever.”
- Luiyo2.0, a conservative personality with over 152,700 followers on TikTok, argued Trump’s comments onMeet the Press“completely dismantled the narrative against Donald Trump in which they claim he is racist.” He added, “If this is true and Trump can solve the DACA problem, he will undoubtedly become one of the best presidents in the United States of America.” TikTok, [12/9/24]
- LuisSinFiltro shared a video claiming, “Trump said he plans to work with Democrats to legalize Dreamers, that is to give them permanent status, not just temporary protection like DACA.” He added, “Trump just dragged all those political activists and ‘pro-immigration,’ ‘non-for-profit’ organizations that said Donald Trump is the most anti-immigrant man in history.” TikTok, [12/9/24]
- PelucasGB shared a video claiming that “while Democrats try to discredit Donald Trump by saying he wants to deport everyone,” he “said he wants Dreamers to be able to stay in the United States.” He went on to claim that Trump “could become the second Republican president in history to deliver a reform for everyone regardless of nationality.” TikTok, [12/9/24]

Fox’s Trumpian propaganda can now be watched on the network’s new Spanish-language news program, Fox Noticias
Written by G. Capuano
Research contributions from Janos Balazs & Monica Rodriguez
Published 11/01/24 mma
Just two weeks after its launch on Fox Deportes,Fox Noticias — a daily Spanish-language news show hosted by longtime network fixture Rachel Campos-Duffy — has shown it will feature more of the same false, propagandist bigotry that appears on Fox’s broader programming.
Campos-Duffy has previously both been a Fox News host and contributor. She has spent years spreading anti-immigrant rhetoric and misinformation about abortion and COVID-19. Notably, she has also pushed the “Great Reset” conspiracy theory, which falsely claims that international climate actions are a globalist front to strip people of their freedoms. She has also spread the white supremacist “great replacement” conspiracy theory, which falsely claims that there is a plot engineered by elites to replace white Americans with nonwhite immigrants.
This is not the first time the network has tried to reach Hispanic audiences. In 2010, Fox News launched Fox News Latino, which was found to be tailoring coverage of the same news events to pander to Latino audiences before it shut down in 2016.
Now, as Fox Noticias gets into swing, Campos-Duffy has made it clear that the show will be another arm of the Fox propaganda machine, mirroring Fox News’ model by fearmongering about migrant crime, spreading misinformation about COVID-19, spreading false conspiracy theories about gender-affirming care, falsely linking Vice President Kamala Harris to communism and price controls, and, of course, playing cover-up for former President Donald Trump.
Most recently, on Fox Noticias'next-day coverage of Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden, Campos-Duffy failed to cover the racist “floating island of garbage” remarks that were made about Puerto Rico.
In just her first few weeks on Fox Noticias, Campos-Duffy has claimed there is a “deep state that is trying to manipulate us with lies and censorship,” praised Trump for supposedly being “macho,” pushed the smear that Democrats are sexualizing children, and more:
- In a rant covering a range of issues, Campos-Duffy falsely claimed the Biden administration “has unleashed an unprecedented crime wave.” She also made outlandish claims about cartels “enslaving a generation of children into sex trafficking."She said that the supposed “open border” has “unleashed an unprecedented crime wave. Transnational cartels are terrorizing Americans by killing innocent women and girls, and enslaving a generation of children into sex trafficking.” In reality, evidence suggests violent crime has fallen across the country since President Joe Biden took office in 2021 and that immigrants commit violent crimes at lower rates than native-born Americans. Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/21/24; Poynter, 5/29/24; Brennan Center for Justice, 5/29/24; American Immigration Council, 10/24/24]
- In the same segment, Campos-Duffy also claimed that “our government also lied during COVID,” and that Americans “are tired of the deep state that tries to manipulate us with lies and censorship.” She said, “They said that masks worked, they said that confinement prevented the spread, they said that COVID did not come from a lab in Wuhan, and they said that the U.S. did not fund gain-of-function research. How many businesses and American dreams were lost? How many elderly people died from isolation? And how many people have vaccine injuries that no one recognizes? And how many children have fallen behind academically or into depression? The United States is at a crossroads. We are fed up with the lies. We are fed up with the deep state that is trying to manipulate and control us with lies and censorship.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/21/24]
- Campos-Duffy claimed that Democrats are “using schools to promote this ideology that sexualizes children.” Referring to an interview in which New York Times opinion writer Jessica Grose said, “It’s a little tricky as a Democrat” for Harris “to talk about faith,” Campos-Duffy said, “Really? Is showing her faith in God considered too complicated for her? The most horrible thing the Democratic Party has done is using the last three years of the administration to push gender politics. Most seriously, it is affecting children and causing sexual confusion, using schools to promote this ideology that sexualizes children in defiance of the values and rights of parents.” This is a common lie in right-wing media that has been repeatedly debunked. Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/24/24; Media Matters, 9/10/24; NBC News, 9/9/24; KJZZ Phoenix, 10/9/24]
* Campos-Duffy claimed Harris wants to “convince minorities that we are unable to succeed without handouts.” During the segment, she claimed, “Kamala’s dream is of power and dependence and starts by trying to convince minorities that we are unable to succeed without handouts.” Later, in response to a clip of a Harris interview, Campos-Duffy said, “Forgiving loans to Black people? In other words, she thinks that Black people are incapable of paying back these loans or that they lack the morals to do so.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/16/24]
- Campos-Duffy claimed Harris is a “Marxist” who wants “to create a dependence on her political party.” After playing a clip of Harris’ press conference during a visit to an abortion clinic in March, Campos-Duffy concluded, “Her motive is to create a dependence on her political party. Why? Well, because Marxists only want power over everything, and nothing scares them more than a man or a woman who is economically free.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/16/24]
- Campos-Duffy falsely claimed Harris’ economic agenda involves “communist ideas” like “price controls.” She said Harris “is also blaming companies and corporations, saying they are corrupt, and has said the solution for this is price controls, something I would think Maduro would say. That is, these are communist ideas that have never worked.” In fact, Harris’ plan specifically mentions anti-monopoly actions and enhanced authority for the FTC and state attorneys general to combat price fixing, not price controls. Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/24/24; Media Matters, 8/21/24]
- Campos-Duffy claimed that “drug cartels have never been richer or more powerful” thanks to “the open border policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.” She said, “Who’s to blame? The open border policies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Under their government, 12 million illegal immigrants have arrived in the country. The cartels control the southern border, not our Border Patrol. No one gets in or out without permission from the cartels, and every immigrant who crosses enriches these violent criminals more. The human trafficking business is on the rise. That is, it’s booming, and thanks to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the drug cartels have never been richer or more powerful.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/15/24]
- Campos-Duffy praised Donald Trump for supposedly being “macho” and called Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz “weird” and “beta.”She said Trump is “a man who does not regret being macho” and argued, “That attitude is his biggest advantage among Latino men.” She also said, “Kamala Harris wants to be the first woman president, but the vice president has a problem with men. After years of telling men they are toxic and unnecessary, she and the progressive left have suddenly realized they need men to win in November. Now, they've come up with a plan. She hired high school football coach and so-called hunter Tim Walz as her running mate to try to identify with what real men want. The problem is, he is beta, a little weird, and can't fire a gun.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/19/24, 10/19/24]
- Campos-Duffy claimed the U.S. State Department is engaging in “cultural imperialism.” She said, “Instead of deepening our economic ties with our Latin American neighbors, the United States State Department has been engaged in an offense of cultural imperialism. First, exporting and funding initiatives at NGOs to promote technological censorship, abortion, climate radicalism, and LGBTQ ideologies. Meanwhile, China is playing for its place in Latin America and undermining our position of dominance in the Western Hemisphere.” Fox Deportes, *Fox Noticias*, [10/19/24]
