Fox’s Laura Ingraham Faces Backlash After Going on Racist Tirade

HeadlineAug 10, 2018

Fox News anchor Laura Ingraham is facing a backlash after she went on a racist tirade against immigration on Wednesday night.

Laura Ingraham: “Because in some parts of the country it does seem like the America that we know and love doesn’t exist anymore. Massive demographic changes have been foisted upon the American people, and they’re changes that none of us ever voted for and most of us don’t like. From Virginia to California, we see stark examples of how radically, in some ways, the country has changed. Now, much of this is related to both illegal and, in some cases, legal immigration, that, of course, progressives love.”

Former Klan leader David Duke expressed his support for Laura Ingraham’s comments.
