“We have to put Christ back into Easter,” one Fox News star fumed during one of the conservative cable giant’s many faux-outrage segments around the holiday.

“Does Biden fall asleep during his own speech, and can Republicans avoid being arrested? Those are the two reasons to watch,” Trey Gowdy snarked on Thursday.
