Fox News host praises 'slave owners' because 'we don't have a country' without them
"Fox News host Brian Kilmeade praised "slave owners" because he said the United States of America would not exist without them.
Kilmeade made the remarks on The Charlie Kirk Show on Monday while promoting his book about Booker T. Washington and President Theodore Roosevelt.
