Donald Trump says Fox is "long form interviewing the sleazebag" Dan Osborn in Nebraska Senate race
“FoxNews is long form interviewing the sleazebag, Dan Osborn, right now, who is running against our GREAT Republican Senator, Pete Ricketts, from Nebraska. Why are they doing this??? The 'other side' doesn’t give our people any positive exposure or airtime. It is a miracle that I won, the last by a landslide, three Presidential Races!”

President Donald Trump publicly criticized Fox News on Tuesday over its Senate-race coverage, posting on Truth Social that the network was giving attention to candidates opposing Republicans. He singled out Nebraska independent Dan Osborn, who is challenging Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts, and questioned why Fox was interviewing him. Trump also cited Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed and said Republicans were not getting similarly favorable treatment. Later that day, Fox host Martha MacCallum spoke with Michigan Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers. The posts followed Trump’s weekend complaints that Fox had not shown his rallies or kept Maria Bartiromo on the air. The episode adds to Trump’s recent public friction with the network, even though Fox has hired former Trump officials and he has brought former Fox hosts into his administration.
