Fox News calls Biden ‘wannabe dictator’ who got ‘his political rival arrested’ during Trump story

“Fox News Tonight” turned heads Tuesday night when it referred to President Joe Biden as a “wannabe dictator” when covering former President Donald Trump’s speech after he was arrested and arraigned.

During the coverage, the onscreen text read “wannabe dictator speaks at the White House after having his political rival arrested.”

Trump pleaded not guilty to federal charges alleging he hoarded classified documents detailing sensitive military secrets and schemed to thwart government efforts to get them back.

Trump appeared before a judge in Miami’s federal courthouse on Tuesday. He is the first former president charged with federal crimes. Authorities say Trump schemed and lied to block the government from recovering the documents concerning nuclear programs and other sensitive military secrets stored at his Mar-a-Lago estate.

It’s the second criminal case Trump faces as he seeks to reclaim the White House in 2024. He’s also accused in New York state court of falsifying business records related to hush-money payments during the 2016 campaign.
