Former House Speaker Paul Ryan reportedly wants to use his position on Fox's board to 'do something' about Trump

Former Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin was the speaker of the House for the first two years of the Trump administration, but he believes it is his new job as a board member of Fox Corporation that will finally allow him to "do something" about President Donald Trump, according to a new report in Vanity Fair.

Ryan, who joined the Fox Corporation board in March, is now said to be one of the most important voices pushing Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch to transition Fox News and pivot away from Trump, according to Vanity Fair.

"Paul is embarrassed about Trump and now he has the power to do something about it," a Fox executive told Vanity Fair.
