Diamond and Silk made their debut on Newsmax TV over the weekend, several months after Fox News ended their show on streaming service Fox Nation.
The duo — Lynnette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson — have billed themselves as President Donald Trump’s “most loyal supporters,” and have been campaign surrogates.
The show, Diamond and Silk Crystal Clear, airs on Saturday at 7:30 Pm Et.
In a YouTube stream on Friday, Lynnette “Diamond” Hardaway said, “You know what I love. We can be ourselves. We can be our authentic, true selves.” She also said that they liked the Newsmax platform because it does not have a paywall. She thanked the outlet for not putting “us behind a wall, but to have our own show on TV.”

Fox News Drops Diamond & Silk After Pro-Trump Sisters Spread False Coronavirus Conspiracies (Report)
Fox News this month appears to have parted ways with Diamond & Silk, the Trump-supporting sisters who became YouTube sensations, after the duo spread false conspiracy theories about the coronavirus on social media.
The sisters, who had a weekly show on the Fox Nation streaming service, won’t be seen “on Fox Nation or Fox News anytime soon” due to “what they’ve said and tweeted,” an unnamed individual with knowledge of the matter told the Daily Beast, which first reported the news.
On Monday, the most recent episode available on the Fox Nation website was uploaded back on March 31, and the duo — up until this point — has not missed uploading one of their weekly episodes since December 2018. They also haven’t appeared as guest commentators on any Fox News show since March 7, when they were interviewed by Trish Regan, who herself was let go after claiming on air that the...

Conservative vlogging duo Diamond and Silk claimed on Monday that the rise in reported deaths from the coronavirus is a conspiracy by the media to make President Donald Trump look bad.
In a Facebook Live video that promised in its description to cover “the sorry ass media,” Diamond and Silk reviewed the recent death toll. Note before reading their comments, the number of American deaths from Covid-19 is over 3,000, around the number of lives lost in the September 11 attacks. Monday was the first day the daily death toll exceeded 500.
“In a matter of two weeks, over 1,000 people supposedly died from the coronavirus. In a two-weeks time period, over 1,000 people — after being tested positive — have died from the coronavirus, but it took 39 days, from January all the way up to February the 29th, I believe, for the first person to die,” said Silk.
