Simple: Robert Mueller's investigation. These Fox News personalities truly seem more outraged at Mueller than at the Russian government for attacking our democracy! Then there was Laura Ingraham, who said of the Mueller investigation : "What a total travesty, they should all step aside ... including Bob Mueller." Presumably, the realpolitik goal of Trump's Fox News defenders is to undermine any findings by Mueller that could implicate Trump in wrongdoing. But at least we can rest easy knowing that, despite the Fox freak out, the Mueller investigation is continuing.
