Fox News host Laura Ingraham has had enough of Jake Tapper’s book tour.
The host of The Lead on CNN has promoted his and Alex Thompson’s new book about former President Joe Biden on a slew of podcasts and shows on cable news, including Tapper’s own program, where he has repeatedly promoted Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again. The book details the lengths to which Biden’s top aides would go to conceal his cognitive issues from lower-level staffers and the media. It also reveals that Biden had to be saved several times by former President Barack Obama at a fundraiser, and that some Biden aides worried he would have to use a wheelchair in a second term.
On Wednesday’s edition of The Ingraham Angle on Fox News, Ingraham accused Tapper of “trying to rebuild [his] cred by calling out the sleaze five years too late.” She aired a clip of Tapper ripping Hunter Biden over his business dealings.
“Hunter was driving the decision-making for the family in a way that people– he was almost like a chief-of-staff of the family,” Tapper said on the podcast. “It’s bizarre because I think he is provably demonstrably unethical, sleazy, and prone to horrible decisions.”
Ingraham, who was joined by Blaze senior editor Christopher Bedford, reacted indignantly.
“We all knew this!” she exclaimed to Bedford. “You were on this show for the last five years talking about this scam. So we hear a few anonymously-sourced tidbits to sell a book, and we’re all supposed to go, ‘Oooh, the journalists are being journalists today.’ But the truth is, someone was running this country. Someone or a group of people. It wasn’t the person elected by the voters.”
“No, it wasn’t,” Bedford replied. “You had people in the Oval Office, you had Anita Dunn there, you had Bob Bauer, you had Ron Klain around the president. They’re cited as being some of the top decision-makers in the White House. And what do they all have in common? They were key members of Barack Obama’s White House.”
Bedford later added that Tapper’s and Thompson’s book is essentially moot.
“And now, all these things that are reported in the book, we knew them because we saw them,” he continued. “They were publicly available information from his press conferences, from the way he walked. Everyone could tell with eyes to see. They’re admitting it now, but it does show you straight down to it just how little in touch he was with actual power-making decisions.”
