Fox News’ Judge Jeanine Pirro issued a long-winded screed during her Saturday night opening monologue deploring NFL players who have protested the pregame national anthem — as well as the whole league and its commissioner.

During her rant, Pirro defended President Donald Trump’s call for firing those who take a knee during the Star Spangled Banner and his “son of a bitch” comment directed at the players. These fulminations came on Saturday during Pirro’s show Justice, where she also said the following:

“The biggest issue facing our country today is the tip-toeing and political correctness that has brought us to the brink of disaster in national security, politics, and sports. The question now is: do we have the fortitude, courage, and determination to stand up to those who threaten our values?… And don’t give me this crap that [NFL players] want to support reform and stand up against social injustice. You want to convince America that this is about social justice and the Constitution then maybe you ought to get off your ass and do something positive for the country that has allowed you to make a fortune.”
