Faux News Hostess Connects White House Fence Jumper to BENGHAZI!!! (totally logical, of course)

Harris Faulker Discussing Man Who Jumped White House Fence: "I Couldn't Help But Let My Mind Just Flow" To Benghazi

FAULKNER: Pete, you have protected assets. And so my curiosity lies in this. Forty-two-year-old Omar Gonzalez, this ex-war vet, may have done us a favor.

PETE HEGSETH: Maybe, yeah. In that we recognize the vulnerability -- You know who else is doing us a favor, in that sense, is the propaganda coming from ISIS declaring their true intentions.

I mean here's my thing. Peter King's right. He could have had a vest on. You're absolutely right. Motives of these people are always in question. I just always get more concerned, kind of -- this is just my civil libertarian streak inside me -- that we're now going to have zones and zones of more screening and more checking. I think there's a way to secure this without it turning into a fortress around the White House.

FAULKNER: So Andrea, I couldn't help but let my mind just flow to something else. Another asset that we didn't protect -- the U.S. outpost in Benghazi, Libya. I don't want to say that this is a trend, but smells like it.

ANDREA TANTAROS: Well, I think you bring up a great point about it being a lesson learned.

I remember last week Elisabeth Hasselbeck tried connecting Benghazi to the NFL domestic abuse scandal. That's the most recent but there have been others. Faux might as well just rebrand themselves the "Benghazi Channel" -- all Benghazi, all day, 24/7.

Karl Rove must have focused grouped it among unmarried women, if Harris Faulkner is spouting it so early in the morning

I'm sure I could find a way to connect that to Benghazi, somehow.
