Fox News host Greg Gutfeld on Tuesday dug up the false, racist birther conspiracy theory that baselessly claims former President Barack Obama was not born in the United States.

During a panel discussion on The Five, Gutfeld acknowledged that the discovery of potentially classified materials in offices once used by President Joe Biden could be a nothing burger. (Read about how the Biden and Trump classified documents news differ here .)

But the thing is, I would not be doing my job if I didnt raise the important questions that need to be raised about what actually happened, said Gutfeld.

Do we know that there arent nuclear secrets in there? he continued. Perhaps he exchanged nuclear secrets to China for the 10%, huh? Thats a question worth raising.

Then came the crass dig about Obama:

What if he has Barack Obamas real birth certificate, and thats what got him the VP job! Hes been blackmailing the Black males?

Watch the video here:

Former President Donald Trump was a prominent backer of the birther movement and for years promoted the falsehood.

He eventually admitted Obama was born in the U.S. in Hawaii in 1961, as both the short-form and long-form birth certificates that Obama released proved but has never apologized to his predecessor in the White House for the lie.
