President Donald Trump continued broadcasting his vocal disdain for Jacqui Heinrich of Fox News on Wednesday, directly attacking the reporter and her fiancé, U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa.
While speaking to journalists at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, Trump ignored a question posed by Heinrich about Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, telling other media present: “Her husband votes against me all the time. I don’t know what’s with him.
“You better ask him what’s with him. She’s married to a certain congressman.
“He likes voting against Trump. You know what happens with that? Doesn’t work out well. I don’t know why he does.”
Ethical Question: @JacquiHeinrich, engaged to Never-Trumper @RepBrianFitz, covers the White House for the Karl Rove Never-Trump Network? Journalists are supposed to be neutral & dispassionate. Isn’t this a blatant conflict? Can President Trump get fair coverage from Jacqui? pic.twitter.com/FCe5w4QhE6

Jim Hoft at the Gateway Pundit explained Fitzpatrick, who represents the Bucks County area north of Philadelphia, “has earned his reputation as a classic establishment squish.”
“Last month, Fitzpatrick was one of the House reps to extend ‘Temporary Protected Status’ to 350,000 Haitians for three years. He also backed the Mass Amnesty Bill pushed by Maria Salazar that would allow illegal aliens deported under President Trump since 2017 flood back into U.S.”
“Trump’s pointed message wasn’t subtle. It was a warning not just to Heinrich and her husband, but to every fair-weather Republican in Washington: Voting against Donald Trump doesn’t end well.”
This is not the first time Trump has taken direct aim at Heinrich.
On May 10, as WorldNetDaily reported, the president scorched Fox’s White House correspondent for not pushing back against what he perceived to be false claims by U.S. Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., on “The Sunday Briefing.”
“The Sleazebag, Radical Left Congressman from the failed State of California, Ro Khanna, 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 (Bullsh**!) narrative,” Trump said on Truth Social.
With Trump ready to meet Xi, he must:
Get China to buy more of our soybeans.
Make it clear no Chinese cars in America.
Stop Chinese companies from abusing workers in the US and competing unfairly. pic.twitter.com/p5AS3p4l9a— Ro Khanna (@RoKhanna) May 10, 2026
Trump got even more vicious against Heinrich and Fox News in a follow-up post that same day, saying: “You could listen to FoxNews all day long, absolutely devour it, but then, when you hear SLEAZEBAGS, like Congressman Ro Khanna, ‘a wolf in sheep’s clothing,’ 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!
“Why would Fox put SCUM like this on, or others, such as Low Rated Bill Maher, who gains ‘credibility’ by constant referral to him as though he were a Liberal source of ‘Wisdom,’ or very Low IQ Hakeem Jeffries, who considers the Supreme Court ‘illegitimate,’ and probably hates our Country. No matter how ‘Fair and Balanced’ the day’s News at Fox may be, the end result is destroyed by professional Liars, Conmen, and Liberal, Crooked Politicians. This is why MAGA Republicans, who are actually close to 100% of the Party, hate Fox, despite the wonderful contributions made by so many of their great anchors and commentators. Hard to win Elections like this!”
A South Carolina without a single Black representative would be a return to Jim Crow. I went on Fox to explain that the Supreme Court’s decision allowing states to eliminate Black majority districts reverses the very progress of the Civil Rights era. It’s not about partisanship,… pic.twitter.com/QCXuqBedaQ

Earlier this month, as WorldNetDaily reported, Trump blasted Fox News for making HBO pundit Bill Maher “relevant,” saying: “I hate seeing Fox, and other Conservative Outlets, constantly making Low Rated Bill Maher ‘relevant’ as it pertains to the Republican Party, and beyond.”
Last month, the president slammed FNC for giving on-air coverage to billionaire Tom Steyer, one of several Democrats vying to replace Gavin Newsom for the Golden State’s top job.
“Why is FoxNews showing SLEAZEBAG Tom Steyer, doing a big piece on him right now, and probably putting him ‘into play,’ instead of talking about Republican Candidates, and really good ones like Steve Hilton, and Republicans?” Trump asked on Truth Social.
“How can a Republican expect to win that State, with their Mail In Voting and Rigged Elections, when you have FoxNews promoting the Democrats?”
Last October, after he appeared on “The Sunday Briefing,” Trump ripped Fox anchor Peter Doocy and the network for refusing to push back against Democrat U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly’s claims about health care and the shutdown of the federal government.
In April 2021, as WorldNetDaily reported, Trump said pollsters for major media companies including Fox News, the New York Times and Washington Post should be investigated for election fraud, as he expressed outrage at surveys about his approval rating.
