Laura Ingrahams Brother Goes to War Against Her
Curtis Ingraham wants people to know that his sister, the right-wing Fox News host Laura Ingraham, is the ultimate hypocrite.

Curtis Ingraham uses Twitter to vent his political frustrationslike many left-leaning users in the Trump era.
To an audience of just a few hundred followers, the Northern California-based teacher expresses outrage at new White House policies, engages with popular #resistance figures like former George W. Bush speechwriter David Frum and the Krassenstein brothers, and bashes Trumps right-wing media cheerleaders on Fox News.
While most of his tweets go largely unnoticed, a few people have taken notice because of what he has to say about one media personality in particular: his sister, Fox News primetime host Laura Ingraham.
I think shes a monster, Curtis repeatedly said in an interview with The Daily Beast.
Since Donald Trump launched his presidential bid in 2015, a number of his prominent backers have faced public hostility from family members critical of Trumpism and the Republican agenda under his watch.
Trump special counselor Kellyanne Conways husband, longtime Republican operative George Conway, has used his Twitter account to make his displeasure with the administration well-known, despite his wifes position as a top flack for the president. Republican Rep. Bob Goodlattes son accused his father of political grandstanding, and donated thousands of dollars to his fathers Democratic opponent. And White House adviser Stephen Milleran architect of Trumps most anti-immigration policieshas earned public condemnations from his uncle, elementary school classmate, and childhood rabbi.
Since earlier this year, the elder Ingraham sibling has used his Twitter account for seemingly one purpose: criticizing Laura, whose pro-Trump, hardline stances on immigration and culture-war issues have earned her praise from the president and far-right figures.

(10,072 posts)I avoid him and when I can't, I confront his constant lies.
Other relatives claim I'm the problem for causing disruption in the family, because I refuse to let his lies stand unchallenged. He's learn to keep his Trump BS to himself around me.
I think most families have at least one idiot in the bloodline somewhere.

(61,420 posts)In fact, that's his whole message. Greed and cruelty.
The saddest part of all this is not that Trump is who he is - he's just one person - but that approximately half our country agrees with Trump's greed and cruelty. They revel in it.
That's been devastatingly sad for me to learn.

(2,678 posts)shunned, disgraced. At least we know whos who in this country. People I thought to be decent turns out theyre anything but. To my way of thinking that was, well, an eye opener. Someone I went to school with, who I hadnt seen in quite a while, had a post on Facebook that said All the ills of this nation are because of the Democrat party. Well right there told me all I needed to know. Avoidance at all times. Lets see what party has had Congress for the better part of 25+ years? Hint: it aint the DEMOCRATIC PARTY! That changes come January 2019.😀

A day after lighting up the Internet with a not-so-subtle dig at President Trump, the attorney and husband of White House adviser Kellyanne Conway jumped back into the online ring with another tweet on Tuesday morning. In his latest commentary, Conway amplified his criticism of the president, pointedly calling out Trumps most recent behavior.

(70,497 posts)How in her Dartmouth days she and erstwhile boyfriend Dinesh d'SOUZA (ugh) posted flyers around campus outing Gay students, how she (drunkenly? or drugs?) crawled across barroom floors, held a gun to the head of a boyfriend who ditched her, how she and COULTERgeist just wanted to be on t.v. (INGRAHAM in tiny tiger striped skirts), etc., etc.
In the '90s there was a wave of D.C. spooks, FBI, and Robert NOVAKula converting to (Opus Dei) Catholicism, and she was one. Below she claimed to be selling crucifix jewelry benefiting The Little Sisters of the Poor. In the first year after her conversion, when she surfaced again, I kept peering at her face on the monitor, straining to detect the *slightest* trace of spirituality. In the first year she had toned down a tiny bit of her hate speech, but soon after that she went right back to her usual hate speech. I called the Little Sisters and asked the Mother Superior whether converts ought to show some sign of Christlike behavior and she told me she had never heard of this person or ever known of such a donation.
