A longtime Fox News contributor quit the network Tuesday and blasted it as a "propaganda machine" for the Trump administration.

Ralph Peters, a retired Army lieutenant colonel and strategic analyst, wrote an email to colleagues announcing his departure Tuesday.

“Over my decade with Fox, I long was proud of the association,” Peters wrote in the email obtained by BuzzFeed News. “Now I am ashamed.”

“Fox has degenerated from providing a legitimate and much-needed outlet for conservative voices to a mere propaganda machine for a destructive and ethically ruinous administration,” he continued. Peters also said he was “appalled” at the hosts attacking former President Barack Obama for his handling of Russian President Vladimir Putin and for advancing Putin’s agenda.

In 2015, the network suspended Peters for calling Obama “a total p---y” while talking about terrorism on air.

In the email, he also called out the network for defending President Trump in light of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.

Dude’s a total douche canoe anyway. Although I was mildly entertained when he called nobama a pu$$y live on the air, but since then, he’s proven to be a raving hillary nut.

Peters is a joke. He’s going to end up on one of the real propaganda machines, aka CNN or MSNBC.

Well... bye!

I never did like this guy. He seemed like a cranky old man to me.

[Parley Baer]

Peter’s is an f’ing idiot. Fox will be a much better place without him. Now for Shep Smith to be gone.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Both Schlepper and Whaaaaan.

Maybe Peters was upset that it was Obama who prevented Hillary from a sure victory.

Another un-American government mistake out the door. Bye!

Nothing worse than a creepy panderer to lefties who practices old-fart-think of the opportunist kind. Must’ve been terrible for some families to have as a neighbor.
