Trump Criticizes Fox Anchor Heinrich Over Khanna Interview

President Donald Trump criticized Fox News anchor Jacqui Heinrich on Truth Social on Sunday, accusing her of not sufficiently challenging Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., during an interview on the network's "The Sunday Briefing."

In the posts, Trump described Khanna as a "SLEAZEBAG" and "a wolf in sheep's clothing" who lied repeatedly without pushback from Heinrich. "You could listen to FoxNews all day long, absolutely devour it, but then, when you hear SLEAZEBAGS, like Congressman Ro Khanna... LIE, LIE, LIE, AND LIE AGAIN, without any pushback, or competent rebuttal from an anchor, in this case, Jacqui Heinrich, the entire common sense dialogue that has been going on all day at Fox is completely obliterated!" Trump wrote.

About 90 minutes earlier, Trump had posted a separate message targeting Khanna without naming Heinrich, stating that the California Democrat "should not be allowed on FoxNews unless you have an anchor who is capable of disputing his lies, one after another, and closing down his FAKE Bullshit! narrative." Trump also accused Khanna of attempting to take credit for improvements in the U.S. steel industry, which he attributed to his own tariff policies.
