The Justice Department has indicted a New York FBI official for colluding with Oleg Deripaska. Quick, build a distraction!

On Fox News' Outnumbered today, co-host Emily Compagno demanded the US build a wall at the northern border between the US and Canada.

Hey Emily, Scott Walker 2015 said it first. (h/t Capper)

The NY Post (also owned by the Murdochs. Fox continually points to it as an authoritative, independent source.) published an article on an increase of attempted border crossings at the northern border, it was just a matter of a few hours for Fox News to regurgitate and magnify the story tenfold.

Emily Compagno ranted for almost two straight minutes about this issue, trying to anger MAGA and activate the House Republicans.

The Fox News host seemed to mock border agents trying to save migrants and perish when they get into trouble trying to cross over from Canada (It hasn't happened yet) when she launched into this bizarre take.

"Every foreign operating base, every FOB we've been to in Iraq and the like. Every fully operational military base, on foreign soil, and here in this country, right? They have a boundary," she said. "They have a fortified boundary. So why is it that in our homeland, in our home soil, our borders, northern now and southern are absolutely open?"

In other words, Emily Campagno wants a fortified boundary (a wall) to cover the longest border in the world between Canada and the United States at roughly 8,900 kilometers.

Maybe Compagno will have Fox News contact Steve Bannon to construct the wall?
