In the wake of President Donald Trump’s meeting on Friday, August 15, with Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin, a meeting that the Deep State foreign policy establishment went absolutely berserk about, Fox News Channel host Jacqui Heinrich faced fire for he anti-Trump stance and “biased” reporting on the meeting.
Particularly, Heinrich was hammered for her claims that the president’s decision to meet with Putin in Anchorage, Alaska, for the summit was a mistake because the reporters in the room got the feeling that the summit was “not good” and that President Trump had been overpowered during the summit by President Putin.
Particularly, Heinrich, one of Fox News Channel’s White House correspondents, claimed that the whole meeting and situation stemming from it was “not good” and “unusual.” She said, “It was just very unusual, atypical, and I think we’re all awaiting the readout because the way that it felt in the room was not good.”
Continuing, the FNC reporter claimed that she thought things went poorly because Putin had “steamrolled” President Trump at the summit. She said, “It did not seem like things went well, and it seemed like Putin came in and steamrolled, got right into what he wanted to say and got his.”
Commenters online were quick to point out that Heinrich is likely not the best source on the matter, as she is engaged to marry U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), an Establishment Republican who is widely regarded as one of the biggest anti-Russian, pro-Ukrainian hawks in the United States Congress. Notably, he was one of two House Republicans to vote against the “Big, Beautiful Bill,” and did so because of proposed cuts to funding for the Ukrainian war effort.
For example, one commenter on X said, “Her husband is a Ukraine stumper and she was immediately rebuffed after saying her garbage by Pompeo of all people.” Similarly, another commenter on the same post wrote that the media’s full-court press against the president shows its real biases and objectives, saying, “Nobody has any idea what was discussed..this is exposing all the MSM for trying to craft a narrative.”
Similarly, conservative X personality Nick Sortor wrote, in a post of his own about her claims and her biases, “Jacqui Heinrich is on Fox trying to convince everyone Trump LOST against Putin today REMINDER: Heinrich is engaged to “Republican” Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, who voted AGAINST Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill because it didn’t give BILLIONS of dollars to Ukraine. Keep that in mind.”

Most commenters on Sortor’s post agreed, with one noting that comments like those made by Heinrich is why Fox News is fast becoming mostly unwatchable. That commenter said, “This is the type of thing which resulted in Fox losing my viewership. I’m not a fan of the sycophants peppering prime time either. Really…the only Fox fare I can stomach regularly these days is Gutfeld. Most of my news is gathered from various news Websites, X , Substack, some individuals…yeah that’s about it.”
Watch Heinrich here:
President Trump, slamming Heinrich back in March, said, “I watched Jacqui Heinrich from Fox over the weekend and I thought she was absolutely terrible.” He added, “She should be working for CNN, not Fox. Not surprisingly, I later found out that she’s a fan of the White House Correspondents Association!”
