WATCH: Fox’s Steve Doocy Puts Elise Stefanik On Full Blast For Attacking The FBI

“Fox & Friends” host Steve Doocy pushed back hard at Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) for her dangerous and hypocritical comments about the FBI on Friday morning, reminding her that the current FBI Director, Christopher Wray, was appointed by none other than disgraced, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump.

Stefanink was asked about the FBI serving a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago earlier this week and replied:

“House Republicans are going to follow the facts and demand accountability and transparenc. The statement by Attorney General Merrick Garland is not nearly enough … this is Joe Biden’s Department of Justice and FBI, targeting his most likely presidential opponent in 2024. It is not news to the American people that President Trump is very likely to run for president. This was incredibly an overreach, it’s un-American, and there’s going to be a lot more questions from the FBI that the American people deserve.”

Doocy countered by reminding Stefanik about Wray’s appointment having been made by Trump:

“Well, of course, the FBI director was appointed by Donald Trump. But Congresswoman, if — and they’re just allegations, and we just have a little taste of the story from The New York Times and The Washington Post — they say, as Peter talked a moment ago, that apparently there was a national security concern about some of the documents, allegedly, at Mar-a-Lago. That they were materials from — they were higher than Top Secret, they were classified higher than that. As you know, they’re called special access programs, and apparently they’re related to nuclear weapons. We don’t know if they’re our weapons, we don’t know if they’re another country’s weapons. But if that is true, and they were just in the basement at Mar-a-Lago, that’s kind of a big deal.”

As you’d expect, the congresswoman, who has long been an eager defending of whatever Trump does, tried to minimize the danger:

“Well certainly, Steve, there’s been a lot of, again, guesses as to, and media reporting. We do not know the facts, which is why it’s important to follow the facts wherever they lead. And that’s why it’s important in our oversight role on the House Intelligence Committee, we continue to see the FBI refuse to answer questions when they create controversies and they overreach, and that should never be the case.”

A quick historical note: In 1953, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed in the electric chair at Sing Sing for allegedly passing nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union.

Is what Trump has done any less serious?
