“Fox & Friends” co-hosts Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade and Rachel Campos-Duffy sparred on their in-studio couch this morning over President Joe Biden's divisive “soul of the nation” address last night in Philadelphia.
Biden's politically-charged speech — in front of the building where the U.S. Constitution was adopted — warned of the alleged threat to democracy from the MAGA movement.
WATCH:
The current president's fierce aim at Trump's so-called “extremist” supporters sets up the midterm elections as a proxy war between Biden and Trump. Reaction from Republicans who support Trump was equally fierce. However, concerns over Trump's handling of classified documents have led to some disagreement between Doocy and his Trumpier hosts on the Fox News set. Those differences boiled over into an uncomfortable argument following Doocy's remarks this morning that not all Republicans are MAGA Republicans.
As Mediaite reports:
Doocy noted that Biden's speech was designed to rally his political base just two months before the coming Midterm elections. “So what he is doing is talking about MAGA Republicans,” Doocy said. “Not all Republicans were MAGA just like not all Democrats, you know, love the squad. So, there are different factions within the Republican party. Focusing on the people who fall in line with Donald Trump…”
Rachel Campos-Duffy did not take kindly to that rather innocuous comment and fervently interrupted saying she “would say the vast majority of Republicans are probably MAGA Republicans. There is the smallest sliver of people who agree with Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. I think really he is insulting millions of people who want to, and then he said…”
Brian Kilmeade interrupted, adding, “but the squad is extremist, and MAGA is not extremist. January 6th is an aberration.”
The roughly two-minute exchange was a fascinating revelation of the ongoing fight for the soul of the Republican party, as well as Fox News itself.
Further reaction from Biden's speech poured in last night and this morning from supporters of the Republican Party:

Doocy is setting the stage for his jump to CNN under it’s “new” leadership and will co=star with Alison for the morning slot
Sure hope he goes soon! I always either mute or change the channel when he starts talking. HE does NOT support America and democracy.
America is back baby
I don’t Trust Biden, what he is doing to our nation is the pits, Biden dollars, crime, taxes, where is all this money going? He could not run and ice cream shop, I vote for the best man to run our country, believe me its not him.
This lying,racist,sexperv,senile,frail,old,puppet,fool,is a pathetic,arrogant, delusional,narcicist,who is the real danger to our country,everything he has done has been the problem.The FBI and bigtech just admitted to interference, in the 2020 election,so it’s time to get rid of this phony,fake sit in pretending president, that out of touch with reality.We know Trump is still our president, after these revelations, of corruption.Time to look at the president, and FBI as the enemy of the people.
Wow love your description of Bidit. Couldn’t have said it better myself.
He truly is the enemy of democracy; the repeating tactic of “look at Trump: he’s in cahoots with Russia (while we really are); he’s a dictator (while Biden really is); he’s a threat to our country (while the Biden Admin. has done nothing for Americans – caused high inflation, let illegals run rampant, let fentanyl kill Americans, allowed domestic energy to go from independent to dependent on foreign sources, spend money on Ukraine not in America, waved the white flag to the Taliban and Al-Khaida and aided and abetted them with billions of dollars in American military assets, putting China first and America last, etc.
My memory goes back to campaigning for Eisenhower with, I Like Ike stickers on my bike! Never have I heard a president condemn his predecessor and half the country before an election. Biden does live up to the left’s playbook of accusing his opposition of what he is doing – especially the continuous assault on the Constitution ’s First, Second and Fourth Amendments!
How Ironic , Joe speaks of the ‘Soul of the Nation’ this coming from the guy who is the
“A**Hole of the Nation”
Biden’s speech went way over the line for me and I can only hope many others!
That speech made him a Dictator
I feel sorry for all who have fallen to biden and his cronies level.We have all forgotten w hat america stands for and sacrificed our precious blood to have what we have now.We kill our future children that God gave to us and i douht anyone has ever seen an abortion of a unborn and still say take this life..drugs are destroying our lives but our government who put there hands on a bible and swore to God to protect this country.We have a president who has no idea what he is doing and we sit back and watch our country destroyed.I see everyday how our country and its people try to take care of there daily lives while our government takes care of the rest of the world.washington put us 30 trillion in debt not the hard working people of this country.If we lose this God given country it is no ones fault but ours.look around you and see with your eyes what has happen and God help us we better wake up.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT
All their crappy policies always land on “Us” while they recklessly spend (Rob) our money to pay for these policies that are not even American. No matter what idiots incompetently run this Country it will be “We the People’s” responsibility to clean it up! Be very careful who you vote for in Elections. Do not count on the MSM to vet these politicians. Do your own due diligence and Flood the polls in person on the day of election! We must crush the ugly heads of the evil serpents! God help US!
I agree with everything you said except for “a president who has no idea what he is doing”……yes, he does. Remember this is all by design! Any your’e right more people need to wake up to the fact that whatever the dem/libs/socialists accuse conservatives of doing is exactly what the destroyers are doing!
It would appear that Doocy is defending the RHINOs who don’t like the MAGA crowd. One MUST remember that MAGA stands for “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN”! As we can ALL see and are experiencing over the last almost two years, America is not great! The Dems have taken it down a road to be alignment with Columbia, Venezuela, Communist China and even the Russians! REMIND DOOCY OF THE FACT THAT THE NON-MAGA REPUBLICANS ARE IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE DEMS ON DESTROYING AMERICA AS IT WAS INTENDED TO BE BY OUT FOUNDERS! If he is going to support them, then get the hell off television!
Doocy is also a big defender of Garlands Corrupt DOJ and the Vile FBI.
I’m sure he is looking forward to the IRS auditing everyone at FOX with the exception of other Quislings like himself.
There is no smellier piece of dirt than the turd, Joe Biden! FJB!
Joe is using Hitlerian speech tactics against half of America. Luckily he’s such a known criminal and clown, his nasty, hate speech has the opposite effect. Shows those moderates and independents just what kind of scurrilous, dimwitted, anti-freedom clown Joe is.
Biden crime family have done nothing to stop Chinese fentanyl from coming into the US from China via Mexico, begining to wonder if the Hunter Biden crime family somehow are in on that action. Seem’s like it’s a non topic with the Biden’s,the only ones not protesting fentanyl crimes are those making money off of the product.Time to find out all the deals Hunter made.
I wonder how much Crack Hunter received from I Ran? How else do you explain his papa’s deal?
I have noticed for some time that Steve Doocy seems to be favoring the liberal side of things. He should go to CNN.
He’s making $26M a year salary. …he must have gotten a better deal if he is. Hard to top that.
Biden may have intended his speech to fire up his progressive base, but the harder he works to appease them, the more he alienates the few moderate Democrats and the independants. His speech basically writes off any conservative, MAGA or otherwise, and in reality may actually backfire to motivate conservative voters even more.
This on top of the FBI debacle at Mar A Lago would almost appear that Biden is trying to incite violence. We have already seen attacks by Joe’s Antifa allies against Republican offices, on top of the pro abortion attacks on churches and family planning clinics. Is he pushing for something so to invoke Marshall Law and suspend the election?
Exactly the plan! If we should rise up on any small way, then he will invoke
Marshal Law
It’s MARTIAL, not Marshall or Marshal!
rino’s hate him because they can’t win anything without MAGA, and the libcomms hate him, because so many of them defect to trump. most people understand what “FREEDOM” means to all of us!!!
Can’t believe someone actually watched the windbag spew his excrement last night. The reruns I watched were better than him.
I watched Penn-Perdue Football Game. Sure was much better than listening to a Demented Idiot.
Fox can go suck an egg. They are not interested in making America great again!
Lord see us through to November peaceful transition to a true Constitutional Republic. One nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Engulf this satanic cabal in your spirit and cast out those whom reject you.
Amen
The Lowest Point in Biden’s failed Presidency. The backdrop resembled Hell to coincide with the Hell the American are experiencing under his CLUELESS non leadership. Was stunned to learn that ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, FOX and other media outlets Refused to air it due to its divisive and dark contents. Biden came across as a weak wannabe Dictator. The networks decision not to air this embarrassing hateful mess was spot on.
Interesting, I was not aware that they hadn’t.
What is “anti-American” about Make America Great Again?
Especially when compared to the decay that the Left “stands” for – open borders, free-for-all criminal behavior, letting foreign countries (China) buy up thousands of acres of US farmland, killing us with drugs,- the list is endless.
I couldn’t even watch this imposter in chief, I had to rely on opinions of people willing to watch this nightmare of satanic imagery because I can’t bear it! My faith in our country’s leaders has been shattered and I’m afraid we have already become a “Third World” country and have little hope of ever recovering from the evils of Biden’s assault on our Republic!
Biden is a disgrace and the demotard party needs eradication….including R Dump.
Any “Republican” who agrees with the White House squatter even a tiny bit, is not a true Republican. They obviously don’t love America and our Constitution. And Stevie Doocey is one of those people — another Liz Cheney.
They have been bougth.
Rachel needs to grow up.
