The Age of Coddling Is Over
Learning what hardship has to teach us.

Fox News panel descends into chaos and threats immediately following Cohen testimony
GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): Why did we endure this spectacle? For two reasons, no collusion and North Korea, and I know that people here are acting like this is news. We need to believe that it's news because we are forced to cover this. I don't feel like this is news. I can't find the news.
