Rupert Murdoch’s son and daughter-in-law drop more than $2 million to help elect Biden and Democrats
The couple each gave $615,000 to the Biden Victory Fund — and another $1 million to help Democrats in Senate races

Fox News founder Rupert Murdoch’s son and daughter-in-law are two of the biggest backers of presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s campaign, federal filings show.James Murdoch and his wife Kathryn Murdoch each contributed $615,000 to the Biden Victory Fund in June, according to Federal Election Commission filings.The Biden Victory Fund splits donations between Biden’s campaign, the Democratic National Committee and 26 state parties. The couple has also contributed to other candidates aiming to unseat Republicans. Kathryn Murdoch is “increasingly giving to Democrats this cycle, including $1 million to help Senate Democrats,” The Washington Post reported.
James Murdoch has long been the more liberal of the conservative media mogul’s sons, backing Democrats like former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper and former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg in the Democratic primary. He and his wife also issued a statement earlier this year criticizing his father’s outlets over climate change denial.
James Murdoch told The New Yorker last year that “there are views I really disagree with on Fox.” He also discussed internal family tension, revealing that there are “periods” of time when he and his father do not talk.
The couple are not the only Murdochs to back Biden. Rupert Murdoch’s wife Jerry Hall sent a $500 check to Biden’s campaign in May after previously donating $1,000 to Buttigieg in the primary.

See why the Murdoch boys like CEO Suzanne Scott?
Report: Fox News Installs Meditation Room with Muslim Prayer Rugs
By John Nolte 18 May 2018
With Suzanne Scott as the new CEO of Fox News, comes a meditation room complete with Muslim prayer rugs, reports the far-left Vanity Fair.
“Fox News recently installed a “meditation room” complete with Muslim prayer rugs in Ollie North’s office, Vanity Fair says. On top of that, “Staffers now attend mandatory sexual harassment training, and the employee intranet includes a section for gender-transition policies and guidelines.”
“People are terrified. They kicked Ollie North out and put in a prayer room. We’ve got a new trans policy. You’re not allowed to be transphobic,” one source told Vanity Fair, although North left to join the NRA as its president.

If true….scary as hell.
Obama kicked out a lot of highly accomplished military in 2014….replaced them with “his kind of people”. So apparently they went to Fox with their prayer rugs….also to our military and banking.
Their eyes look like hate….pure hate.

I hope these 2 liberals will see in November, that BUYING A CANDIDATE does not necessarily mean they are going to win.
TRUMP WILL BE RE-ELECTED BECAUSE IT WILL BE GOD WHO WILL SEE TO IT.

This nation has moved from God’s blessing to His curse. In His mercy He may give Americans some more time to repent and a reelection of Trump may be a part of that, but the judgement is coming regardless

I wouldn’t be too sure about that. I don’t think God is very happy with our country. We have degenerated into a Sodom and Gomorrah lawless culture and we are instructing kids this is normal. How about legalizing infanticide? These and other issues can’t be going over well with Him.
One Governor has already declared their state will have mail in voting for the fall. I forget which one is was. It was a Democrat. Others will fall in line…..
You can blame Trump for some things but you can’t blame him for trying to clean up the vote back in 2017.
46 States Are Now Refusing To Fully Cooperate With Trump’s
“Voter Fraud” Investigation

Last updated on July 6, 2017, at 6:24 p.m. ET
Many state officials say cooperating would only legitimize debunked claims of widespread voter fraud.
This includes Republican states too! Voter fraud is rampant. Trump was forced to abandon it because of NO COOPERATION! Add in mail in ballots and that magnifies the problem…

The state you are looking for is Californian….mail in voting.
This will result in us not knowing who won for a week or more….just like Gore/Bush in Florida.
And, I don’t think Trump as abandoned anything…..I think he’s planning a different way to go.

He hasn’t been at FOXNEWS in a long time. The date is wrong. when FOX and Disney made their deal, part of it was for Iger to get James a job somewhere. He did. He works at Viacom.

While Pappy Murdoch was chasing that model all over the globe he put his two Uber Left Sons in charge of Fox…and their creepy uber left wives.
It’s been all downhill ever since then….they took out Ailes with phony sex charges by the two hags – Megyn “Cruela Deville” Kelly and Gretchen “no talent” Carlson. They both walked away with 10 million each.
Since then Carlson went to the Miss America pageant and crashed it the first year she was in charge.
Kelly has moved from job to job unsuccessfully.
After they took out Ailes (who died from stress fighting all of this) then went after O’Reilly and Eric Bolling…..same charges because it is the most inflammatory, can’t be proved or disproved.
If it weren’t for Tucker Carlson ….I’d never be on that station.

Thank goodness the Younger one doesn’t work there,. He left last year. The date is wrong. He works at Viacom. The older one runs it, and they are both a disgrace. They are both alt left socialist scum of the earth, just like their wives. The Father should have disowned them. I heard both of them are ignorant and worthless.

Murdoch was busy banging that model…..he could care less about Fox…he let them destroy Ailes….then they went after OReilly and Bolling. Greta Van Sustern saw the hand writing on the wall and left on her own.
And, they rewarded Megyn “cruella deville” Kelly and Gretchen “no-talent” Carlson with 10 million each to lie about poor Mr. Ailes….
….I heard her on some program complaining about how it ruined her life. What a hag.
Carlson went to be head of the Miss America pageant and crashed it the first year she was running it.
FOX is CNN lite now…..it won’t be much longer they will be all CNN.

We’ll see. CNN lost between 100 million and 120 million in advertising revenue this year. Unless Beezos buys them, there could be some major changes at CNN coming. The stockholders at FOXNEWS/Business news/FS1(whatever it is now called since they sold off just about everything else) are not happy with what happened with Chris Wallace and what happened with Newt. Their ratings have dropped. If the President wins on Tuesday, the people on the board(and stockholders) in charge may decide it is time to stop bashing the President and tell Murdoch’s older son and Ryan to clean up their acts or get out.

Murdock Sr. screwed up big time when he allowed this twit of a son to join the network. All he and his fugly mate will do is affect Fox’s ratings so they are close to CNN’s, which are barely in the plus column.
Like almost all democratic communists, all this couple will ever do is destroy what their previous family built.
Talk about a disgrace.
