In January 2017, Watters' World became weekly, and in April 2017, he became a co-host of the roundtable series The Five. In 2021, he published his first book, How I Saved the World.

Fox News is lying about Trump's trial Anyone hoping Pecker’s explosive evidence will inform Trump’s supporters will be sorely disappointed, because, thanks to Fox News, they will never know about it. In a trial exposing how Trump used fake news to get elected in 2016, Fox News continues to peddle the same fake news, to further the same agenda. Despite paying nearly $800,000,000 for admittedly lying to viewers about the 2020 election, Fox continues to falsely portray Trump’s trial, while embellishing stories like the “border invasion” to harm Trump’s political rivals. During voir dire, Jesse Watters, a Fox News commentator, announced on Foxthat “They are catching undercover Liberal Activists lying to the Judge in order to get on the Trump Jury,” painting Trump as a victim of the “deep state.” There was, and remains, no evidence of liberal activists trying to get on the jury.

DRIVELThe Biden economy is a mirage, a migrant mirage. It gets even more suspicious. All of these jobs Biden has claimed to have created, millions of them are part-time jobs. Since June, America has lost 2 million full-time jobs. The so-called Biden comeback is a scandal. The president is illegally flooding American industry with cheap labor. --Jesse Watters 4/4/24 |
==Zorek Richards: From The Cheap Seats: April 23, 2024==
Jesse Watters said today that "Trump is being treated worse than prisoners in Guantanamo Bay." A ludicrous idea but that kind of stuff is why Jesse Watters is like the National Enquirer of rightwing "news."
Some ideas why Jesse Watters thinks he is an expert on Guantanamo:
1) His dad spoke fluent Guantanamese
2) Watters was locked in a bathroom for a whole 30 minutes once and can relate
3) He is making it up because he likes to say "Guantanamo"
4) He thinks water boarding is a Guantanamo word for surf board.
5) He had an imaginary friend once who broke out of Guantanamo.
6) OK, so his imaginary friend didn't like to talk to him either, and he doesnt know where he came from, so there. .

Fox News Goes After Judge in Trump’s Hush-Money Trial for Him
Donald Trump has attacked the judge in his hush-money trial so much that it earned him a massive gag order. Now Fox News is defending Trump by justifying the attacks.
“The judge is threatening to put Trump in jail by pointing out that his liberal family is getting rich off this trial,” Fox host Jesse Watters said Tuesday night. “He just wants a new judge—one whose family isn’t funded by Democrats.” Trump’s attacks go far beyond simply requesting a new judge. The Republican presidential nominee has repeatedly attacked Judge Juan Merchan, his daughter, and his court staff and their families.

Jesse Watters Offers Sad Excuse for Trump’s Silence on Evan Gershkovich
Jesse Watters rushed to Donald Trump’s defense Tuesday after a Fox News colleague called out the former president for not commenting publicly on Russia’s year-long detainment of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, claiming that Trump’s silence is likely deliberate because it’s part of a negotiation tactic. On The Five, co-host and former Democratic congressman Harold Ford Jr. noted Trump’s reluctance to mention Gershkovich, as opposed to President Joe Biden, who issued a statement last Friday condemning Gershkovich’s “wholly unjust and illegal detention.” Gershkovich, who had been reporting on Russia’s war against Ukraine, has been detained since last March after being arrested on espionage charges that are denied by him, the Journal and the U.S. government. In January, his pre-trial detention was extended until March 30. “You realize that President Trump has not mentioned Evan Gershkovich's name?” Ford said. “It’s not something I say with fondness.”

'I don't think it's manly!' Fox News host mocked for Biden ice cream whining
Fox News host Jesse Watters took offense at the spectacle of Biden eating ice cream after his late-night interview with comedian Seth Meyers — and complained on Tuesday's edition of "The Five" that it just didn't make him look masculine. "This ice cream — you know my rule about men eating soup in public. I don't think it's manly to go like that with the soup, and you're blowing on it, it's just not a good look," said Watters, exaggeratedly pantomiming sucking on a spoon. "I think the same thing for ice cream. You should save that for vacation."
