One of Fox News’s ‘star’ reporters was left red-faced after she tried to slyly dunk on President Trump following his historic meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump met with Putin for a high-stakes summit in Anchorage on Friday in hopes of striking a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Middle East special envoy Steve Witkoff joined Trump for the meeting, which lasted three hours.
Trump announced following the meeting that he and Putin reached an agreement to end the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Still, Ukraine and NATO are “going to have to agree,” Trump stated, noting that “there’s no deal until there’s a deal,” and “it’s ultimately up to them.”
Despite this welcome breakthrough, Fox News’s Jacqui Heinrich, who is engaged to RINO Pennsylvania Congressman and Zelenskyy devotee Brian Fitzpatrick, took the opportunity to claim Putin “steamrolled” Trump during the summit.
She said this even though she admitted she did not have the official readout and was relying on her gut.
“It was just very unusual, very atypical, and I think we’re all awaiting, you know, the readout,” Heinrich said. “Because the way it felt in the room, um, was not good.”
“It did not seem like things went well; it seemed like Putin came in and steamrolled and got in what he wanted to say.”

Later on, Brian Kilmeade decided to fact-check Heinrich over her presumptuous and tacky remark.
“(He) Trump said on a scale of 1-10, I’d give today a 10,” Kilmeade said. “So that’s the president (telling us) what he thought of the meeting.”
A humbled Heinrich was then forced to backtrack after jumping to conclusions.

“That’s excellent news and exactly what we needed to hear from the president,” Heinrich replied. “Obviously, there’s a reason why he allowed things to happen like they did.”
“I’m happy to hear the president feels good about the progress that was made,” she added. “He did say that he needs to call Zelenskyy, call up NATO allies, and give them a sort of readout of what happened.”
