“Fox & Friends” host Steve Doocy is former President Donald Trump’s latest media ally to call him out on the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago investigation. During a Wednesday episode of the show, Ducey asked South Dakota Gov. Christy Noem, another Trump ally, for her opinion on the Mar-a-Lago raid — but not before wondering aloud why Trump didn’t he turned the documents over to the government and took them to Florida’s house instead. “Well, it ultimately comes down to — why did he have all this secret stuff at Mar-a-Lago?” Ducey asked. He referred to Trump’s claim of declassifying the files through a standing order and pointed out that that defense did not hold up as the alleged move was also “news to the agencies that these documents belong to.” “He had, apparently, three classified documents in his office,” Ducey said, referring to the Justice Department’s court filing on the raid. Doocy also referred to a photo the DOJ released of the top-secret documents found at Mar-a-Lago. “He shows five yellow folders marked ‘top secret’ and another one with it says ‘secret SCI’ which stands for ‘sensitive departmental information,’” Doocy said. “These are the biggest secrets in the world.” Noem tried to defend Trump, calling for more transparency in the Justice Department investigation. However, Ducey sidestepped her argument and stated, “I don’t think any President has moved that many documents into his home after leaving the presidency.” Ducey is just one of several members of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire who appear to have changed their stance on supporting Trump in recent weeks. Last month, Fox News host Eric Sean asked aloud during a live broadcast whether Trump could have tried to “sell or share” classified information with Russia or Saudi Arabia. In July, Trump also expressed his displeasure with “Fox & Friends,” a talk show with which he was known to have almost weekly conversations during his presidency. In a post on Truth Social, he called the talk show “terrible” and said it had “gone to the dark side” after Doocy questioned his poll numbers. These rants from the Fox News hosts may signal a shift in the Murdoch empire’s attitude toward Trump. This week, on the one hand, the former president lashed out at the Murdoch-owned New York Post for an op-ed he published titled “Republicans are lucky to have Mitch McConnell: Trump’s crises are beyond ridiculous”. The Post also blasted Trump in an editorial in July, calling him “unworthy to be the CEO of this country again.” Additionally, the Wall Street Journal — another Murdoch-owned publication — called Trump “The President Who Stood Still on Jan. 6” while praising former Vice President Mike Pence. Meanwhile, the FBI is investigating whether Trump violated three federal laws, including the Espionage Act, by keeping classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. The agency removed 11 sets of classified documents — some of which were marked top secret and related to nuclear weapons, according to the Washington Post — from the property while executing a search warrant on Aug. 8.
