Fox News' Leo Terrell Yells Down Jessica Tarlov to Call Out Her Jewish Heritage: 'Don't Do It!'

Fox News contributor Leo Terrell lost his mind Thursday when network pundit Jessica Tarlov invoked her American Jewish heritage during a discussion about Israel and President Joe Biden, prompting an angry Terrell to apparently accuse her of playing the race card.

“Do not do it!” Terrell shouted, “You're a big Democrat!”

Tarlov, who used to be shouted down as the resident liberal on Fox News. The fivetried to calmly respond to Tyrell, only for the conservative brand to become increasingly livelier.

“why are you yelling?” Tarlov asked at one point.

During Thursday's broadcast the story, Terrell and Tarlov were ostensibly brought in to discuss a planned high-dollar fundraiser for Biden that is expected to generate the president's reelection campaign upwards of $25 million. However, the conversation became more heated when guest broadcaster Trace Gallagher pointed out that pro-Palestinian protesters would likely boycott the event.

“We just spoke with Senator Rick Scott, who's in Israel right now, and he said, 'Listen, [Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu told him that he would not back down, they were going to Rafah.” “And these protests will be held outside Radio City Hall by these pro-Palestinian supporters, and if Benjamin Netanyahu is true to his word, I mean the president is going to have a very difficult time trying to win over these protesters.”

“Gaza is a big issue” for Gen Z voters, Tarlov said, adding that Biden is trying to find “a solution where we have a humanitarian solution but also make sure we let Israel finish the job and bring these hostages home.” She added that Biden and Netanyahu must ultimately do what is best for their countries.

A one-time progressive commentator He renamed himself Leo 2.0 When he went full MAGA before the 2020 election, Terrell took a decidedly less nuanced approach than his liberal host.

“Joe Biden has a Michigan policy – ​​kowtowing to pro-Palestinian groups in America. He abandoned Israel,” Terrell said. “He didn't just abandon Israel! Jewish Americans study in universities! Let's be clear, Joe Biden will do anything to win Michigan [by] We throw our greatest ally under the bus, and we throw Jewish Americans under the bus! Shame on Joe Biden! This is ridiculous! It's outrageous!”

In reaction to Terrell's rant, Tarlov tried to present her point of view as “the only Jewish American on the panel,” but her colleague quickly interrupted and criticized her.

“Don't play this — don't do that! Don't do that! That's not the point,” he shouted, prompting Tarlov to remind him that he had asked Jewish Americans' opinion on Biden first.

“Okay!” “You're a big Democrat, and you'll defend Joe Biden despite the numbers,” fumed a flustered Tarlov. “And you know he's throwing Israel under the bus! And he's throwing American Jewish students under the bus on all these campuses! It's disgusting!”

Meanwhile, Gallagher told Tarlov that he would give her “ten seconds to respond,” prompting her to patiently explain that while many Jewish Americans have issues with Biden’s policies toward Israel, they also largely feel that he has been a strong supporter of that country.

She continued: “I know that he wants a strong solution, and I know that he also realizes that there are problems inside Israel with the leadership of Benjamin Netanyahu.” “I think what you're saying is very dangerous, just like what President Trump has been saying.”

Tyrell, as expected, exploded again. “Dangerous! Dangerous,” he shouted, pointing at himself.

“why are you yelling?” Tarlov asked as Leo 2.0 went into a full-on tantrum before Gallagher mercifully ended the clip.
