One of the few bright lights on the channel, sometimes referred to as the Clinton News Network, has been a conservative strategist and Trump supporter, Scott Jennings. Time and again, he has gone into the lion’s den to take on deranged leftists.
On Tuesday night, he battled with the angry left once more, especially far-left host Abby Phillip. He again came out on top after catching her making a huge error while taking a cheap shot at Elon Musk.
The CNN anchor and a DNC spokeswoman said that Elon Musk was overseeing the FAA (which he is not) and had awarded himself the Starlink contract, saying this was a corrupt conflict of interest.
The FAA, of course, is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Transportation, which is headed by Sean Duffy.
But when Jennings called out Phillip for her nasty cheap shot on Musk, an embarrassed Philip immediately tried to weasel her way out. But Jennings would not let go of the host’s chagrin.
It got worse for Phillip when Jennings point-blank asked her whether she said Musk was overseeing the FAA. She lied and said she had not made that statement.
Shortly thereafter, Philip finally admitted defeat.

PHILLIP: He’s over at the FAA saying he’s got his hands in everything in the government, and his company gets a contract. That’s a clear conflict, and literally what’s happening.
JENNINGS: How do you know that? You’re alleging he is personally writing grants to himself. That’s a major allegation.
PHILLIP: Scott, this wild allegation talk…I don’t think that’s warranted in this situation. Ethics laws exist, and they have for a long time.
They apply not just to regular staffers who cannot afford to go to a lunch and have someone pay for it for them,” she added. “Elon doesn’t have to write the check for himself but his presence in the agency (DOGE) is a clear conflict. It’s not an allegation of him writing a check to himself…
JENNINGS: You just alleged he has a conflict.
PHILLIP: No,no,no. It’s just that in the government, you are not allowed to see businesses where you profit…
JENNINGS: Musk is not overseeing the FAA… Are you alleging he’s overseeing the FAA?
After a bit of cross-talk, a frustrated Phillip ended the segment.
