Geraldo Rivera announced he was leaving Fox News in a Thursday Twitter video, saying his Friday morning “Fox & Friends” appearance could be his final one.
“Anyway, I got fired from @TheFive so I quit Fox,” Rivera said in a post on Twitter. “After 23 years, tomorrow Fox and Friends could be my last appearance on the network. Thanks for the memories.”
Rivera, who initially joined the network as a war correspondent in 2001, had previously announced his departure from “The Five” in a June 21 tweet, but said that he was still a “correspondent at large” for the network. His ouster was reportedly due to clashes with co-hosts Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld, according to the Daily Mail.
Rivera and Gutfeld had a heated discussion on abortion during the May 4 show, in which Gutfeld criticized celebrities who celebrated their abortions, where Rivera called the late-night host “arrogant.”

“Go for it, Geraldo. Keep going,” Gutfeld said near the end of the exchange. “You’re making a fool of yourself.”
“Can I talk to you? You know something, you insulting punk?” Rivera responded.
The two also clashed over the fallout from a pair of sexual assaults in Loudoun County high schools that were reportedly covered up by the Loudoun County school board.

Rivera had also clashed with host Lawrence Jones over illegal immigration on May 26.
“If you look on the dark side, I believe there’s plenty to see there, but if you look at my vision of an optimistic America, where the rule can be that you can have the American dream, too,” Rivera said. “If you play by the rules.”
“They haven’t played by the rules, Geraldo,” Jones said. “They haven’t played by the rules. And our country is giving them a red carpet now for coming here and breaking the law.”
Fox News did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It’s hard to believe it’s really happening, but it is. Male athletes pretend to be females, dominate their sports, and are thereby rapidly destroying women’s competitive sports worldwide. Convicted male criminals suddenly claim to be transgender so they can be confined in a women’s prison and sexually abuse the female inmates there. Men claiming to be female likewise invade women’s locker rooms, bathrooms, schools, dormitories, sororities, shelters, spas and social organizations – and in the process steal women’s scholarships, advancement, honors and myriad other opportunities.
Meanwhile, transgender groomers and recruiters in schools and on social media platforms like TikTok are continually feeding and expanding the current “mass hysteria” craze that has already led countless teen girls to take testosterone and undergo double mastectomies in a pathetic effort to become boys. No wonder the CDC reports 3 in 5 teen girls say they feel “persistently sad or hopeless” and almost 1 in 3 say they have seriously considered committing suicide.
All of this on top of the radical left’s renewed obsession with killing women’s unborn babies via abortion.
The “woke” left’s maniacal attack on women and girls, virtually unreported by the rest of the media, is the entire focus of the sensational June issue of WND’s critically acclaimed WHISTLEBLOWER magazine, titled “THE LEFT’S TOTAL WAR ON WOMEN.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
