Fox News host Laura Ingraham discussed the erosion of public trust in the aftermath of the Baltimore bridge collapse on “The Ingraham Angle.”
Reflecting on the incident, Ingraham questioned the credibility of the Biden administration, stating, “Why is it that so many Americans following this collapse believe that the Biden team isn’t telling us the whole truth?”
Citing Axios, Ingraham highlighted concerns over misinformation proliferating after the collapse, including speculation about hostile actors’ involvement and economic terrorism. She emphasized that such theories arise when facts are elusive or when those in authority lack credibility.
Ingraham underscored the importance of trust in government, stressing the need for confidence in top officials’ competence and integrity. She called for a thorough investigation into the incident to prevent future occurrences, minimize economic fallout, and expedite reconstruction.
However, Ingraham criticized the administration’s focus on virtue-signaling and its perceived politicization of government agencies, asserting that these actions have undermined public trust.
