Fox’s Brian Kilmeade Promotes Fake Harriet Tubman Quote That Kanye West Tweeted Out
After Kanye West took a whole lot of heat on Tuesday in the wake of his slavery was “a choice” comments during a TMZ Live chat, the hip-hop legend and Kardashian spouse took to Twitter to respond to the latest controversy that has resulted from his recent red pilling. In this instance, he compared himself to Harriet Tubman and Nat Turner while complaining he was being attacked for “presenting new ideas.”
if this was 148 years ago I would have been more like Harriet or Nat

once again I am being attacked for presenting new ideas

And he spread a fake quote attributed to Tubman.
I freed a thousand slaves I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves. – Harriet Tubman

As Gizmodo noted in 2016, this quote went viral after it was announced Tubman would eventually replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. It is now likely to do so again due to Red Pill Kanye tossing it out into the ether. And the folks at Fox & Friends are doing their part to help West out in that task.
Hours after the curvy couch crew praised Candace Owens’ new BFF for his TMZ meltdown, the hosts went back to discussing West’s latest comments.
“Kanye took a lot of heat aligning himself with Candace Owens,” co-host Steve Doocy stated. “He took a lot of heat for loving Trump. Took a lot of heat saying slavery was a choice.”
Brian Kilmeade then noted that West fired back on Twitter, bringing up the ‘Gold Digger’ artist’s complaint about being attacked while reading off other tweets in which West tried to explain his slavery remarks.
“He also had another defining statement,” Kilmeade added. “He also quoted Harriet Tubman.”
And he proceeded to read off the tweet without noting that it was completely made up because of course. This was followed by Doocy and Ainsley Earhardt reading viewer responses in which they praised West for expressing his love for Trump.
