Is this a just determination? Or should there be further investigation from an outside investigator?: The Mississippi Department of Public Safety said Friday that its internal investigation found no criminal conduct by a white Highway Patrol trooper who used physical force against a handcuffed Black man during an arrest — a confrontation caught on video by relatives of the man being arrested.

During Thursday’s broadcast of Tucker Carlson Tonight, fill-in host Brian Kilmeade mentioned the Florida judge who approved the search warrant used by the FBI to raid Mar-a-Lago on Monday and who has subsequently faced death threats for doing so. During Kilmeade’s commentary, however, a fabricated image of two separate photographs appeared on screen depicting the judge on an airplane receiving a foot massage from convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell. During the handoff to Sean Hannity’s show, Hannity pointed out that the image was digitally altered. “I think that’s actually a picture of Jeffrey Epstein with somebody putting [the judge’s] head on there,” he said. As Snopes pointed out, the judge’s upper body was substituted for Epstein’s. The image credit that Fox News listed is a Twitter user whose handle is @whatimemetosay and who describes themselves as a “meme creator” and “digital art creator,” making the network’s apparent error even less excusable.
