Maria Bartiromo invented a whole new conspiracy theory about Joe Biden on her show the other day.
The Fox Business host had Rep. Ronny Jackson of Florida on as a guest when their conversation quickly unraveled into a rapid-fire validation of some wild conspiracy theories they invented right there on the spot.
It all started with Bartiromo suggesting that President Biden is being secretly drugged by, possibly, former President Barack Obama. Or maybe First Lady Jill Biden? Could it be former National Security Advisor Susan Rice? Or even White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain? Who knows? But someone is definitely feeding him drugs, Bartiromo is sure of it!

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“There were signs that Joe Biden was declining during the 2020 campaign,” she said. “I mean, let’s face it, he stayed in the basement the whole time during the campaign, uh, so who knew what when? Are they hiding this and feeding him drugs to allow him to function?”
“I know he goes home to Delaware a lot, more than any other president. So I guess my question is, what did Obama know? What did Jill Biden know? And who is running the White House right now, and are they covering up for these mental issues?”
Bartiromo offered absolutely no evidence to support her bullsh*t claims, but Jackson wasted no time jumping on board with them.
“Well, that’s the big question everybody’s asking. Who’s really pulling the strings and running the country right now?” he replied. “We don’t really know the answer to that. We don’t know if it’s Susan Rice or Ron Klain or if it’s Jill Biden or who it is. But somebody else is doing this.”

“They’re doing exactly what you said,” Jackson continued. “They’re rolling him out at specific times during the day. He’s got good days and bad days and whether or not they have him on drugs I dunno but there are drugs out there that can increase your alertness and your memory and things of that nature, you know, to cover stuff like this up temporarily.”
“So I’m sure some of that’s going on, as well but we don’t know because his physician hasn’t stood up and took the questions that I took when I was Trump’s physician and answered those questions.”
Watch.

Now, some reactions…
Set aside Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham, for a sec and take a look at Maria Bartiromo. She is all kinds of crazy rolled up in one and spreads the misinformation like wildfire. What’s in her wallet?

People wouldn’t believe me that she used to be respectable. But she was.

Indistinguishable between her and Jeanine Pirro these days.

“Are they hiding this and feeding him drugs to, to allow him to function?” she added, striking a very conspiratorial tone, offering no evidence to back her questions. pic.twitter.com/YCmrd2ivjF

What happened to this woman? I remember her back in the day and she seemed fairly intelligent and knowledgeable about Wall Street. Joey Ramone even wrote a song about her. What the heck happened to her??

Why has Maria Bartiromo turned into such a vicious one-woman Biden hating machine? It’s bizarre.

Imagine being such a bottom feeding low paid person that your job consists of trawling other people’s feeds for comments all day.
Den
The articles here are amusing, and those who write them are well aware of that.
Big difference between them and actual bottom feeders: people like Bartiromo and Jackson who are lying publicity whores, and you, an obvious low intellect twit who eats up their lies like an infant with a bowl of cheerios.

shes the one in the crowd who has the distinct bad breath that comes from chemicals and garlic. it’s the signature “Pig-in-a-blanket” they put out for white wine-swilling pigs like her.
get contacts maria, the glasses are always sliding down your greasy nose, you ‘look’ crocked.
Cam
At this point Fox is directly lying about government figures and should be held responsible. Enough with letting them just lie with no consequences.
MystiRivers
No one cares what you think.
Den
Actually more people care what Cam thinks than care about the rants of an addled right winger like you. You are likely stupid enough to think that FOX, OAN, The Blaze, NewsMax and the other anti LGBT, anti-American media outlets deal in facts, or are somehow accurate in their conspiracy theories.
We all see how stupid the right wingers like you are. You fool nobody, but an awful lot of folks fool you.

We would all prefer to listen to Cam over someone with the personality of a dial-tone.

@Cam: I wonder if FOX runs all the verbal diarrhea issuing from Carlson, Hannity, Ingraham and dipsh*ts like these two in front of an (utterly unscrupulous) legal team before airing? They always seem barely half-a-toe this side of actionable offenses.
Doug
I totally agree with Cam. This is how incredibly low Fox News and Republicans will stoop to lie to their supporters in order to start rumors right along the lines that Trump lost the election. It’s absolutely incredible. These are sick, desperate people.

I nicknamed her years ago, when she was still a respected financial journalist on CNBC but started coloring all her comments with a distinctly right-wing bias. The name I gave her: Maria Barf Aroma. Still fits cause she still stinks, only now much worse than ever.
radiooutmike
Fox News Channel isn’t news. It’s an entertainment channel.
Den
The lack of critical faculties on the right (we see it clearly here from the few, but loud, regressives who post and troll) is stunning. And the manipulative media whores who take advantage of it manipulate them shamelessly.
It is as if the majority on the right never learned how to think or what constitutes a fact. To construct a valid opinion you need to know the difference between fact and fantasy. Pretty clear right wingers have a hard time with that.

i still think joey ramones tribute song to maria still holds up. circa 1996 i think? give it a listen.

What basement??

Mario/Marcy/James Hart/M.Gallo/Maria Bartiromo, is that you?

This is a weird conservative “go-to.” Remember when Hillary fell, and all conservatives could talk about was how she’d had a stroke and was unfit for office and dying? They brought out people to talk about the size of her eye glasses, and said things like, “only people with cognitive decline need that specific thickness.” Clearly, she’s just fine. Maybe Joe can have one of Trumps old doctors write him a note saying he’s the fittest person, ever. That was all conservatives needed, then.

Now keep it right here on Fox, patriots, so you don’t find out any difference!
Jimmynj
How can they let a clearly impaired person on the air???? Oh, wait, this is Fox News. They do the same with Jeanine Pirro. Maybe they can get a group rate at rehab.

FOX all is needed to say, hatefully moronic
