Donald Trump Just Said That Fox News Should Be ‘Required Television Watching’

Donald Trump called two Fox News interviews “required television watching” on Sunday afternoon.

Trump tweeted, “Required television watching is last weeks @marthamaccallum interview with the wonderful wife of @RodBlagojevich and the @trishregan interview with a Jerome Corsi. If that doesn’t tell you something about what has been going on in our Country, nothing will. Very sad!”

Blagojevich is the former Governor of Illinois who is currently in prison because he tried to sell Barack Obama’s senate seat when Obama became president in 2008. Blagojevich was impeached and removed from office, and has asked Trump to commute his 18-year sentence.

Then Trump unloaded on former attorney general Jeff Sessions, writing he “should be ashamed of himself” for allowing the special counsel investigation into Russian election interference.

Trump first quoted Daniel Henninger, a columnist for the The Wall Street Journal, who suggested prosecutors were seeking a way to charge the president through his former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

“Thank you, people are starting to see and understand what this Witch Hunt is all about,” Trump added. “Jeff Sessions should be ashamed of himself for allowing this total HOAX to get started in the first place!

Sessions, who stepped down as Trump’s attorney general after the midterm elections this year, had previously recused himself from the investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, given he worked for the Trump campaign.
