Jesse Watters, co-host of the popular Fox News show ‘The Five’ and host of ‘Jesse Watters Primetime’, found himself in hot water with his conservative fanbase after being caught in a promo shot with a staffer wearing a face mask. The outcry was swift and furious from those who are vehemently against mask-wearing and vaccine mandates. Even Ron DeSantis’ Rapid Response Director, Christina Pushaw, questioned the necessity of the mask in a tweet, echoing the sentiment of many others who were puzzled by this unexpected display of caution.

But the drama didn’t stop there. Congressman Dan Crenshaw didn’t hold back when he hit back at Watters after the Fox host insinuated that Crenshaw may have engaged in insider trading. Crenshaw adamantly defended himself, stating that he had only $10,000 invested in stocks during his time in office and accused Watters of perpetuating a “fake controversy” for clicks. He didn’t mince words, calling Watters a “f***ing clown” and accusing him of bashing veterans. Crenshaw even claimed that Fox canceled a pre-scheduled interview with him after their disagreement.
what's the mask for?

This whole ordeal has put Watters in a tough spot, causing friction within his own political circles and prompting a feud with a prominent Republican congressman. With accusations flying and tensions running high, it seems like Jesse Watters may have some bridges to mend within the conservative community. Only time will tell if he can bounce back from this uproar unscathed.
