Donald Trump did more than defeat the Democrats.
He’s also taking establishment Republicans to the woodshed for their betrayals.
And now this Fox News guest just stunned viewers with this accusation that will leave Paul Ryan furious.
Warmongers in retreat
Donald Trump became an enemy of Permanent Washington when he called the Bush-Cheney administration war criminals over the war in Iraq.
Ever since then, establishment Republicans have hated Trump just as much as the Democrats.
They claimed that Trump was not a true conservative, but their real fear was that Trump would move America in a more non-interventionist direction.
That shift has slowly been taking place inside the Republican Party, much to the dismay of the Dick Cheney and John Bolton wing of the party.
That’s why former House Speaker Paul Ryan, who sits on Fox News’ board, reportedly pushed popular primetime host Tucker Carlson out the door.
So Ryan must have been seething when he saw liberal journalist Glenn Greenwald live in the studio at Fox News.
Greenwald has long been a critic of the war machine and the surveillance state, which has put him at odds with the Trump-deranged Democrats who have bizarrely become defenders of the Military Industrial Complex, the CIA, and the FBI.
Commending Trump administration’s honesty
Greenwald first commented on Vice President J.D. Vance’s speech before European leaders where he chastised them for cracking down on free speech.
The independent journalist said, “It was remarkable because this has been a long-standing critique of U.S. European foreign policy, namely that everything we do is just by the name of protecting and advancing democracy. That’s how we hear, for example, our involvement in the war in Ukraine justified, ‘Oh, we’re defending democracy. That’s what we do.’”
Greenwald criticizing the foreign policy establishment on Fox News’ airwaves would have been unthinkable a decade ago.
That’s how disruptive Trump has been to the Washington, D.C., Swamp.
Greenwald continued, “And there’s been a lie at the heart of that for decades, which is we partner with some of the most dictatorial regimes on the planet, Saudi Arabia and Egypt and others, where we prop up those dictatorships. But also the Europeans have often interfered in elections when they dislike the outcome, as has the United States. And at the same time, the United States and especially Europe are leading the way in censoring the Internet.”
European governments are hard at work attempting to ban Elon Musk’s social media platform.
Greenwald added, “So this idea that we can posture as defenders of democracy, but we have to be honest with ourselves that that’s not really what our institutions are intended to do is amazing to hear from a senior American official.”
Greenwald also took aim at the National Endowment for Democracy, a CIA cutout created in 1983 to carry out overt operations instead of covert operations.
He explained, “We used the National Endowment for Democracy to facilitate a coup in 2014 in Ukraine, to remove the government, the president that we didn’t like, the elected one to replace him with someone that we did. And so it’s so refreshing to see some transparency and candor brought to what these agencies will do and the harm they caused to the United States.”
It’s remarkable — and a sign of the Trump realignment especially on foreign policy — what kinds of foreign policy discussions one now has on Fox News.

Ryan and the warmongers had to have had a heart attack when Greenwald popped up on the air.
