Guess who does not want Newt Gingrich to talk about George Soros? Fox News, that’s who.
Fox News personnel’s reaction to Gingrich’s use of the “Soros” word drew notice on Twitter, a platform on which the former House speaker is currently blocked.
Twitter user “Jewish Deplorable” on Wednesday tweeted, “Fox News panel melts down when Gingrich calls out Soros”.

Gingrich mentioned Soros’ name while talking about crime during a segment of Outnumbered on Fox News. He placed part of the blame on Soros for supporting liberal district attorneys.
A detailed transcript, plus more video, is available here on Mediaite.
Host Melissa Francis didn’t like that. She said, “I’m not sure we need to bring George Soros into this.”
Marie Harf chimed in to support Francis.
Gingrich said, “Okay,” followed by a pause. “So it’s verboten?”
Cue: Awkward silence.
Then, Harris moved the conversation to another topic.
The former House speaker, for now, is still able to get the word out on his Facebook page, which is available here.
On Friday, he posted, “Strengthening the police will not work if the district attorneys and judges refuse to lock up the violent and predatory people who are arrested. Soros has poured millions into electing radical left-wing prosecutors who simply refuse to prosecute criminals.”
The post linked to a blog entry on Gingrich’s website, here.
In the post, Gingrich examines the rioting in large cities and how they are tied to the 1960s — and to Soros.
Furthermore, strengthening the police will not work if the district attorneys and judges refuse to lock up the violent and predatory people who are arrested. George Soros has poured millions into electing radical leftwing prosecutors who simply refuse to prosecute criminals. When predators know there are no costs to their crimes, they are emboldened to become even more aggressive and violent. I wrote about all of this in my new book Trump and the American Future.
The new, greater sophistication of the anti-American left has created a guerrilla war movement across America.
