A new montage highlights Fox News personality Sean Hannity’s hypocrisy when it comes to raising the U.S. national debt limit.

The montage that media watchdog group Media Matters for America released on Thursday intercuts footage of Hannity praising ex-President Donald Trump for increasing the ceiling with clips of him slamming President Joe Biden for attempting to do the same.

Hannity’s “talking points about Congress voting to raise the debt ceiling have shifted dramatically depending on which party is in power in Washington,” the watchdog noted on its website.

It’s not the first time the prime-time personality, and fierce Trump apologist, has been accused of hypocrisy.
