Donald Trump nominates lesbian Fox News host Tammy Bruce, who said Democrats fund creating 'mutants'
Donald Trump has nominated out lesbian Tammy Bruce to be the U.S. Department of State's spokesperson — though the Fox News contributor would likely take issue with the gender neutral term.
Trump recently made the announcement on Truth Social, in which he cited Bruce's background as a “liberal activist in the 1990s" who supposedly “saw the lies and fraud of the Radical Left, and quickly became one of the strongest Conservative voices on Radio and Television.”
“It is my great honor to announce that Tammy Bruce will be joining our incredible Nominee for United States Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, as Spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State,” he wrote.
Bruce, who has been a contributor at Fox since 2019, has a history of making inflammatory comments on air, including claiming she regretted getting the COVID-19 vaccine and going on several bizarre rants against gender neutral language. She said in a 2021 segment with Fox & Friends co-host Pete Hegseth that she wished she could “give back” the vaccine.
"We've got an order that is frankly going to compel some people to not get the vaccine because of this kind of distrust that continues," Bruce said on Fox News Primetime. "In certain ways, it's like, 'If I could give it back!' at this point, you know?"
Bruce was president of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Organization for Women in the early 1990s and a member of NOW's national board "until she saw the conservative light," according to her official Fox News biography. She went on another tirade in 2021 slamming President Joe Biden for saying "all women and men are created equal," which she was widely mocked for at the time.
"Notice how he added 'women and men are created equal,' and not just men," Bruce said on Fox News Primetime. "It matters, right? That's not what the founders wrote. Apparently the sacred words of our founders weren't inclusive enough for sleepy Joe, so he corrected them."
Bruce went on a similar rant in 2018 when criticizing a Scottish bakery's decision to name its cookies "gingerbread people" instead of "gingerbread men," calling it "the tipping point" for free speech.
"It can be the smallest thing that tips you over the edge," she said. "In this case it's calling gingerbread men a gingerbread person, when obviously they're men."
Bruce has also claimed that Democrats are funding research into human-animal hybrids "from hell," falsely painting stem cell regeneration that aims to produce possible body parts or tissues as attempts to create "mutants."
“Chimeric research is Pandora’s box, that’s obviously from hell, that should not be opened,” Bruce said. “But the scientific community, spurred on by their own hubris, may very well open it, using American taxpayer dollars. And if that happens the Democrats will have blood on their hands for not joining the GOP and stopping it when they had a chance.”
