Fox News Cancels Dan Crenshaw Interview After Spat With Jesse Watters

Dan Crenshaw Jesse Watters


The Texas congressman revealed Fox News canceled his scheduled interview after he attacked host Jesse Watters on Instagram

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) may have just torched his open invite on Fox News after accusing host Jesse Watters of being “the type of dude who pees sitting down.” 

The Republican congressman’s tiff with Watters began on Tuesday after the host featured Crenshaw in a segment reviewing lawmakers’ stellar year trading stocks. The segment was based on a report by the blog Unusual Whales, which comes amid calls to ban lawmakers from actively buying and selling stocks as a way to address longstanding concerns about congressional insider trading.

The segment infuriated Crenshaw, who took to Instagram to voice his ire. 

“Hey you fucking hack, if you’re gonna accuse me of literal corruption, get your facts straight and man up and come accuse me to my face. You’re a fucking clown, desperate for clickbait,” Crenshaw wrote Tuesday night. “I literally have $10,000 invested in stocks, and haven’t made trades in over a year. I have never had more than ~20k invested while in Congress. Fox knows this but they’re desperate for fake controversy to get clicks. Watters is a tool, making millions to push conspiracies on tv, and bash veterans like me who [have] barely a fraction of his net worth. Wake up America. The political entertainment industry is almost always lying to you.” 

In a separate post on his stories, Crenshaw wrote that “losers like Watters grew up with a silver spoon,” and that “for some reason, people are fooled into believing he’s some genuine blue-collar conservative. Yeah he’s such a ‘conservative’ he cheated on his wife and then left her with twins while he went off with another Fox producer.” 

“And let’s be honest, Jesse Watters seems like the type of dude who pees sitting down,” Crenshaw added.

On Wednesday, Crenshaw revealed that Fox News had canceled a pre-scheduled interview that had been scheduled for that evening. “Guess I hurt their feelings by calling out their bullshit. Oh well,” he wrote. 

Watters has yet to address the accusations made by Crenshaw or clarify his pee-style preference. What is clear is that the Texas congressman probably won’t be getting an invite to his show anytime soon.
