It's like Fox had this story waiting in the wings... oh wait, they did.

JESSE WATTERS (HOST): America didn't just happen by accident. Our great nation is only here because of battlefield victories like the Battle of Yorktown where patriots defeated the British and helped create the United States. Or how about D-Day, where we saved the world from fascism thanks to thousands of brave men who stormed the beaches? And then there was that time in 1980 when we saved the world from Soviet hockey.

WATTERS: Today Primetime scored another major victory for America. We've won the first battle in the War on Christmas. Today the tiny town of Dedham, Massachusetts decided that their library will in fact put up their annual Christmas tree after some pressure from Primetime.

And I had almost given up hope that there WOULD be a War on Christmas this year. But the day that inflation numbers came down, up went the fake militant holiday spirit over on Fox.
