It's not that he's "lost" Newsmax (Greg Kelly just did a segment tonight about how the spirit of the Constitution says no presidential term limits) ... but it's definitely noteworthy that the right-wing Andrews McCarthy and Napolitano are out on the boat strikes.
Woah. Newsmax’s legal analyst just said Pete Hegseth and everyone involved in the illegal boat strike should be “prosecuted for a war crime.”
They’ve even lost Newsmax on this one.
