'OUTRAGEOUS': Elissa Slotkin slammed over calls to prosecute Trump supporters
If Democrats retake Congress, how should they hold the Trump administration accountable? Sen. Elissa Slotkin says the focus should extend beyond the president and send a message to those considering working for him.
Fox News
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center Slotkin’s remarks about prosecution and the reaction to them, but they frame the story differently. Fox News focuses on the backlash, with one headline quoting Slotkin’s “manufactured outrage” line and another amplifying criticism of her comments. Vox’s extracts are not about the backlash itself; they instead foreground Slotkin discussing Trump, accountability, and the consequences for her family.
