5 Times Scott Jennings Made Liberals Look Like Turkeys

Salem Radio Network host Scott Jennings has been making liberals look foolish again in 2025.
Jennings, a former George W. Bush administration official, has been a supporter of President Donald Trump, particularly during the 2024 election and through his second term in office. Often he has moments where, despite being outnumbered on CNN panels, he’s made liberals and Democrats look like turkeys.
June 5: Jennings Stumps Abby Phillip With One Question
In the wake of a June 1 attack on a weekly demonstration supporting hostages taken by the radical Islamic terrorist group Hamas, a “CNN NewsNight” panel discussed the Trump administration’s efforts to deport the family of Mohamed Sabry Soliman, who had allegedly overstayed a visa.
WATCH:
“Is this family in the country legally or not?” Jennings asked Phillip, who responded, “Actually, I’m not sure.”
“I think they may not be,” Jennings said, with Phillip replying, “Yeah, I’m not sure. No.”
After some back and forth, Jennings discussed how the Trump administration has also revoked some student visas and at least one green card over involvement in pro-Hamas demonstrations.
“If you’re on a visa, you don’t have a right to be here. You’re a guest in this country, and we’ve seen a number of our guests turn on actual Americans and it needs to stop,” Jennings said.
July 16: Jennings Torches Tiffany Cross’ Concentration Camp Claim
The Trump administration has blamed anti-ICE rhetoric for riots at ICE facilities across the country, including Chicago and Portland, Oregon, which have been the scene of multiple riots as opposition to the agency’s operations targeting illegal immigrants has intensified. So, when former MS Now host Tiffany Cross compared ICE facilities to concentration camps, Jennings didn’t let it slide.
WATCH:
“People want — people who are suffering right now, people who cannot pay their mortgage, people who have been separated from their families, people who are sitting in deportation camps, concentration camps, foreign and domestic, those people do not want to see people —” Cross claimed before Jennings interjected with, “That’s offensive to Jewish people.”
After a back and forth with the panel, including Democratic strategist Julie Roginsky, Jennings set Cross off with four words.
“You’ll never get it,” he said, prompting Cross to make an unfounded claim that ICE was “disappearing” people.
July 17: Jennings Debunks Toure’s Totally Wild Claim
During a “CNN NewsNight” panel about a year after Trump was shot and slightly wounded in the right ear during an assassination attempt while giving a speech at a July 13, 2024, campaign rally in Butler Township, Pennsylvania, former MSNBC host Toure questioned if Trump had actually been hit.
“Did he get shot or not? You’re saying you think he didn’t get shot?” Jennings asked. “I think it’s an important question. Are there still people who are truthers on this?”
WATCH:
“I wasn’t there, I don’t know! I don’t know. I’d like to hear from his doctor,” Toure fired back.
Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas, Trump’s former White House physician who treated Trump’s wound, released a July 26, 2024, statement after then-FBI Director Christopher Wray speculated Trump may have been hit by shrapnel.
“During the Congressional Hearing two days ago, FBI Director Christopher Wray suggested that it could be a bullet, shrapnel, or glass,” Jackson wrote. “There is absolutely no evidence that it was anything other than a bullet. Congress should correct the record as confirmed by both the hospital and myself.”
Aug. 6: Jennings Doesn’t Hold Back When Liberal Argues DOGE Shut Down Diners
To date, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has identified $214 billion in savings since Trump established it, an average of $1,329.19 per taxpayer, according to the organization’s website. After Seneca Project CEO Tara Setmayer claimed that DOGE was responsible for the closure of diners and nail salons, Jennings cracked up.
WATCH:
“If you are a working-class American where manufacturing jobs are getting — are being lost by the tens of thousands, where small businesses are closing because of Donald Trump’s erratic tariff policy, where, you know, the diner waitress can’t — her diner is closed because Donald Trump and DOGE came in and cut tens of thousands of jobs in their hometown —” Setmayer claimed, with Jennings asking, “You’re saying DOGE cut diners?”
“I’m saying that DOGE cut the jobs, the federal jobs in areas where it trickles down — and you know this. So when you lose tens of thousands of jobs in an area, then that trickles down because then you don’t have those workers going to the nail salons and to the diners,” Setmayer said, with an apparently bemused Jennings responding, “This is a new one. I’ve never heard that DOGE cut the diners.”
Jennings later couldn’t contain laughter as Setmayer continued to blame DOGE for diners shutting down.
Nov. 10: Jennings Makes Clyburn Confess
After federal district judges ordered Trump to provide funds for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Jennings faced off with Democratic Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina.
WATCH:
“Do you believe a judge — do you believe, as a member of Congress, a judge can compel the executive to spend money that you haven’t appropriated?” Jennings asked during a “CNN NewsNight” panel, with Clyburn responding, “Yes, I do. Yes, I do.”
Following a back-and-forth with Clyburn, Jennings fired back, citing the “No Kings” protests many Democrats supported.
“Look, you guys have been railing against Trump being authoritarian, having too much power, too much executive power,” Jennings said. “And at the same time, Democrats have been arguing that he should go out and spend money that has not been appropriated this year by Congress.”
