Fox News host brutally mocked for startling monologue: 'Move over, North Korean state TV'

Onlookers mocked Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday after she shared a startling monologue during the opening segment of her weekend show, "Sunday Morning Futures."

In the monologue, Bartiromo claimed that her show had been one of the "leading critical journalists" covering government mismanagement, ranging from the "made-up Russia collusion story" that "ripped the country apart" to the "coordinated attack on the American people" by Democrats trying to "hide serious mental incapacitation" of former President Joe Biden.

Bartiromo's comments came at a time when President Donald Trump is ramping up his attacks against Democrats as the 2026 midterm elections draw closer. The president has blamed "hate speech" by Democrats for recent episodes of political violence, including the alleged shooting that took place at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Political analysts and observers mocked Bartiromo's comments on social media.

"Move over, North Korean state TV," journalist Aaron Rupar posted on Bluesky.

"No, Maria, this is not 'critical journalism,'" political analyst Scott Lucas posted on X. "It's lying as an outlet for a convicted felon in the White House. I trust this helps you."

"One of the jokes among my friends is that when you try to accurately describe what Trump/the GOP are doing right now, you sound like a crazy person," Jason Karsh, a former Obama administration official, posted on Bluesky. "But if you’ve ever talked to a committed Fox viewer, they will hit you with stuff like this constantly. How do you have a conversation with that?"

"Bat-s--- crazy," journalist John Harwood posted on X.

"She’s just reading Q drops now," Jim Stewartson, a political analyst, posted on X.
