‘Fox & Friends Weekend’ hosts suggest new variant meant to distract from Biden’s struggles

The hosts of “Fox & Friends Weekend” on Saturday suggested that warnings from public health officials about the emergence of the new omicron variant of the coronavirus could be an attempt to distract from several challenges President Biden is facing.

“Pete Buttigieg, our Transportation secretary … has said we can’t fix the supply chain problem until the pandemic is over, until COVID is over, and now we see these new variants,” said Rachel Campos-Duffy, the wife of former Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wis.) and a co-host on the weekend morning show. “That’s the answer, is more lockdowns, more lockdowns, more fear and therefore he does not have to do his job.”

Members of Biden’s administration, Campos-Duffy suggested, are thinking to themselves “we’ll just keep this whole thing going,” in reference to the pandemic.

“There’s always a new variant,” co-host Will Cain said.

“And there’s always a new variant,” Pete Hegseth, the show’s third co-host, said as well. “Count on a new variant every October.”

Campos-Duffy laughed.

“They could speed up,” Cain said, also chuckling. “The new variants and the boosters and the emergencies.”

Hegseth held his hand up to his ear, imitating a phone call by top federal officials.

“We’re going to need to a new variant here,” he joked. “My God.”
