During a panel discussion, the majority of the co-hosts downplayed the revelations that the president did indeed press Ukraine to look into Biden and work with Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani. That prompted Williams to bring up the publication of the White … [Read more...] about Fox News Panel Explodes When Host Accuses Colleagues of Peddling White House Talking Points
