Carl Higbie Ominously Warns 'You People in Your Cities'
By: Michael Luciano Load Comments (Mediaite)
Newsmax host Carl Higbie went on a tirade on Friday after former President Donald Trump was convicted by a Manhattan jury the day before.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to cover up extramarital affairs. Trump was concerned the affairs would come to light and harm his presidential aspirations. The Republican freakout has been swift if not predictable. Despite their outrage and indignation, some conservatives insist that being a convicted felon will help Trump's chances of returning to the White House in November's election.
During Friday's edition of Frontline on Newsmax, Higbie demanded congressional Republicans drop everything and go after those involved in Trump's prosecution.
"Where the hell are you guys on this one?" he said. "Stop everything in Congress. Subpoena everyone. Don't take summer recess. Don't take weekends. Don't even get up to go to the bathroom. Get in there and subpoena everyone. This judge, his daughter, everyone affiliated with anything ever, ever! I don't care if we stop building bridges and highways and stop funding our government. You fight fire with fire. Otherwise, these Marxists are going to keep doing this."
The host then called on Republican attorneys general to begin targeting Democrats. He also addressed the "tyrants" responsible for Trump's prosecution and conviction:
I'm not just talking. You tyrants are about to awaken a machine you don't want. You are pushing people to the edge. The same party that is offended by the wrong pronoun is pushing the party that owns 90% of the guns, of which, the majority defends our nation, who mine our minerals, who build our skyscrapers, and drive our trucks.
You weak people have no idea. You people in your cities with your white-shoe consultants, country clubs who thought prosecuting Trump was a good idea. You have never met America.
After talking about how Republicans have most of the guns and making a Braveheart reference, Higbie claimed it is Democrats who want violence.
"They want violence so they can cancel this next election that they know they're gonna lose," he baselessly alleged. "Don't fall for it. And the liberal networks? They want it so bad, they can taste it."
The host concluded by predicting Republicans will win in a landslide in November and that Trump will prosecute Democrats.
"And when he does, I'm gonna sit back, I'm gonna drink a beer, I'm gonna smoke a cigar the size of Cuba and laugh because they earned this one," he stated.

assholes like this have no business being on mainstream media
before you say Newsmax is not mainstream media, it is included in many streaming packages, free and pay.
What it does say is that the journalism standards there have almost ceased to exist.
That being said NewsMax viewers are still a fringe minority,
Their most watched show recently had 531,000 looks
but their average is something between140,000 to 169,000 vs Fox Entertainment's 1.6 million viewers.
God bless the First Amendment
Cheer up though, NewsMax probably won't survive the SmartMAtic lawsuits and the new charges that they deliberately deleted top execs texts and emails after being put on notice to preserve evidence.
So very true. The extremists from both sides shout and scream daily. If it weren't for the First Amendment, they would have been run out of the country long ago.
Is it me, or does that sound like a threat?
Talk about unhinged.
How is that different from the way many republicans in Congress behaved before the verdict?
Bring It!
My thoughts exactly, let's get it done!
MAGA are going crackers all over the place...
