Speaker Johnson goes after CBS moderators for 'shameless' fact-checking of JD Vance

 House Speaker Mike Johnson slammed the CBS News Vice Presidential Debate moderators for their "shameless" fact-checking of Sen. JD Vance, calling them out for having anti-conservative bias on "open display."

"It's just shameless," Johnson said during "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday. "Their bias, their disdain for any Republican candidate is just on open display. Everybody can see that… It was three against one and JD still won."

Despite CBS announcing that it would not allow live fact-checking during the debate, moderator Margaret Brennan interjected to correct Vance after he suggested that illegal immigrants are overwhelming resources in Springfield, Ohio.

"Just to clarify for our viewers, Springfield, Ohio does have a large number of Haitian migrants who have legal status, temporary protected status," Brennan said.

When Vance tried to push back on the fact-check, Brennan and her co-moderator Norah O'Donnell attempted to speak over Vance, insisting that they had to move on to the next question.

"The rules were that you guys weren't going to fact-check," Vance reminded them. "And since you are fact-checking me, I think it's important to say what's actually going on."

While explaining the process of obtaining legal status and tying it to a Harris-backed immigration policy, the moderators again spoke over Vance, thanking him for "describing the legal process" before they cut off his microphone as Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz attempted to argue with him.

"Senator, we have so much we have to get to, thank you so much for explaining the legal process," Brennan said before urging O'Donnell again to move on to the next question.

"The audience can't hear you because your mics are cut," she added when Vance continued to respond.
