‘Is That a Threat?’: Gutfeld Reacts to Co-Host Saying ‘HR Watches This’ After His Comment Gets Him in Hot Water ⋆ Flag And Cross

Greg Gutfeld and Jessica Tarlov, two of the co-hosts on Fox News’ “The Five” Monday night, got into an amiable argument on the program that revolved around “conspiracy theories” on the right and the left in the wake of Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter.

A lot of unfounded conspiracy theories regarding David DePape, the apparently deranged man who attacked Paul Pelosi during a home invasion last week, have been floated on the social media platform, and Tarlov wanted to set the record straight about some of them.

Tarlov described what DePape told authorities he planned to do to Nancy Pelosi, which Gutfeld agreed was “pretty horrible.”

Musk “was spreading lies” about the attack, Tarlov said about his tweet.

“So was [Clinton],” Gutfeld responded. “That’s the joke.”

“It’s not a joke,” Tarlov said. “Why did he take it down, then?”

“Look at you,” Gutfeld responded. “You are getting too emotional about this. You should be enjoying the [free] speech.”

“Just because I’m [speaking] at a higher pitch than you doesn’t mean I’m more emotional; it’s just estrogen,”…
