Tucker Carlson and his company are denying reports from Newsweek and others that the former Fox News host has started a program airing exclusively on Russian Television. The show in question has been heavily promoted on Russian media and features current episodes of Carlson’s show with a Russian translator speaking over it.
We also forget that,even with a conservative Supreme Court, the current POTUS is ruling by executive fiat, and ignoring Supreme Court rulings and Congress . We hear crickets from the media (left and right) and from Congress . What goes around inevitably comes around.
I like that he interviews people to remind us that they look as human as we do. Because they act like monsters is their fault and they should be held accountable.
Putin gave the boring history of Russia. The point many don’t see is that he wants to re create the old empire either by conquest or intimidation. Stalin with class.
The point of the Russian subway video was not to exalt the Stalinist view of over doing things for show but to show that they are clean and maintained. Care to take a ride in the New York City subway system? Ask Mayor Adams if you can borrow one of his Uzi carrying bodyguards.
He didn’t ask Putin about the deliberate starvation of the Ukrainians in the 1930’s. That is why they supported the Germans. I’m into old history videos and I saw a German propaganda video of a ceremony where Ukrainians were given deeds to the land they worked by the Germans.
Carlson had a recent video about Lyme Disease and the coincidence of a bio lab near by. There was also mentioned about a disease outbreak in the Midwest near another lab. What about the reports of bio labs in Ukraine?
Oh, for Heavens sake. What do you think you accomplish by calling Tucker "comrade"? He isn't pro Putin any more than you are. He has been right on issues as often or more than you have. These tirades against people on the same side as you are because you have some differences of opinion, most of which seem to be based on your wish that things could be the way you saw them a decade or more ago. Changes have been effected for the positive because people like Tucker and Glen Beck woke people up. The establishment republicans would have continued to passively let the left take over if people like Beck and Carlson didn't come along.
Delayed gratification has to be learned, and cause and effect have to be properly identified.
While it is true that there are more Americans socially "left" of conservatives, the left has achieved most of its gains through authoritarianism.
The Right is winning on policy which takes time to be realized and requires good cause and effect analysis, understanding context.
The minions on the left, while useful idiots, are true believers led by the bourgeoisie, the elite who desire to keep power.
I am convinced that MTG, Carlson, TPUSA are grifters that have tapped into the disillusion on the right and rather than providing context have decided to cash in, convincing otherwise conservatives they are victims and coalesce their own band of useful idiots for monetary gain.
The Left's bourgeoisie have a strategy to actually further the agenda their useful idiots like while maintaining power. The Right's grifters only care about themselves and are scamming the disillusioned.
Tucker got the biggest interview of the year. Are you just being jealous? Sure Putin fed us some propaganda, but also some perspective. So little time is given by the press on the question "Why did Putin invade?". If Russia signed a defense pact with Mexico and stationed troops in Monterey, the US wouldn't let that stand. But you and the neocons ignore that and keeping beating the war drums. These wars are bankrupting our country.
At the beginning of the recent hostilities, Putin was quoted is saying he will not stop increasing the size of Russian until he reaches Lisbon. I believe him, and the leaders of Poland, Finland and a number of other European countries also believe him. If you listen to what Putin has said in the past he honestly believes that he must reconstitute the Russia to it's former glory.
It will be interesting to see what Trump does in January. The war will end quickly and Ukraine won't be abandoned. He's not going to repeat Biden's Afghan mistake.
Fair enough. We can choose to believe which of Putin's statements we believe, and which we don't.
The neocon uniparty gaslighting mantra is "Putin is a madman who will capture all of Europe if we don't stop him in Ukraine."
How?
In 2.5 years, he has only taken 25% of Ukraine with not insignificant losses. All this without contending with NATO air, naval power and ground troops. Attacking even tiny Estonia changes the force factor opposing Putin exponentially. He may be evil, but he is not stupid.
Meanwhile, we borrow another $100B+ we don't have, and give it to defense contractors and a corrupt Ukrainian leadership all the while bringing us closer to WW3.
If only Victoria Newland/CIA/Obama hadn't engineered the coup in 2014. If only Tony Blinken/Biden hadn't kept NATO membership "on the table" in Nov '21.
Tucker Carlson - the guy that drones on and on about the coastal elites rigging the game for their kids while he and his wife beg Hunter Biden to write their son a recommendation for Georgetown.
The guy that dedicated countless hours to 2020 election fraud claims cheering on repeated guests like Sydney Powel making the most absurdly foolish claims possible - Thanks to the dominion lawsuit, we know definitively that he new the whole time it was all bullsh_t. That he was just doing his part to keep ratings and the stock price high.
I've always thought Tucker's main talent was having the a uniquely dumbass blank stare facial expression while staring into the camera whenever he pretends to be confused.
Erick - you're in the media business, how much more profitable is it for Tucker to traffic in the bs conspiracy realm than actual journalism? Do you think he actually believes much of the krap he's pushing?
I love you Erick, but I think you’re jumping the shark. It now appears as if this story was generated by Ukraine. I think you’re falling victim to the information war. And why no reporting on the documents recently unredacted in FL? I mean, the FBI was authorized by the DOJ to use deadly force e during the Mar a Lago raid? A medic was embedded with planned route to a trauma center 18 miles away? Seems to me like someone authorized an assassination of Donald Trump if they had any resistance getting the documents that he WAS negotiating with NARA. Come on man, WTF? What does Trump have that’s important enough to kill for? And please don’t say he’s a threat to democracy. Look at the documents…
Trump killed during the raid. That would definitely cause the chaos the puppeteers want. Their Chrystal Nacht moment. Martial law and the end to the constitution.
Amazing how some are writing this off as standard operating procedure and boilerplate. It’s far from it. You are going to the home of a freaking President of the United States with Secret Service, family and guests. The President of the United States. For documents. For a case that appears to be about to full apart. People need to wake up. Erick thinks Garland should go due to the optics. He should go for more than optics.
Be prepared for NY to convict him unless there is one juror strong enough to put up with all the hate they’ll get. I could be wrong. It’ll be interesting to see what happens post verdict. Either way, Trump likely benefits.
Tucker is respected by everyone that has a brain and a moral compass. He isn't perfect, but he is good... REAL good.
"While the story now appears to be false, it’s not a far stretch due to Tucker’s obsession with Russia since the invasion of Ukraine. "
So the story is false, but you cannot let it impede your Tucker hate.
Excuse me, and I do respect you, but this seems like uncontrolled professional resentment for Tucker's success. It is beneath you to join the Democrats and dishonest media attempting to destroy him.
Yes Erick can be insightful and he gets information (propaganda) we don't have but he doth decry a bit too much (remember he opposed Trump in 2016 and for that could be accused of being a demsymp aka comsymp. His provocative title to this is just the same sort he would decry or sniff at coming from others, like Tucker. Click bait. Its fine use it, I like being provocative sometimes but at least don't castigate others in the same article you use it yourself in Erick.
Then you agree we need a Caesar on the Right, conservatives are the oppressed class and liberals are oppressors, we must decolonize the Left's colonization.
Erick's politics fit into his religion. God is true North, politics is terrain than must be navigated.
There is nothing passive about Erick, his daily show, his appearances, The Gathering, the forums are all to highlight and advocate for good people who can further the conservative cause.
The Right wins with ideas and policies that good people put forth and the people buy into.
The Left wins with violence and authoritarianism.
Both are tactical.
The former is work and takes time, the latter is lazy.
The former builds a lasting, positive foundation.
The latter results in the destruction of everything.
You are confusing the transitional state with the final state. You are advocating cheating on a test to get an A and not considering the final state is you learned nothing.
The Lord HAS done ALL the work for us. All that He asks of us is to spread the GOOD NEWS to the ends of the Earth. It is not to beat Evil into submission; Jesus did that 2000 years ago.
Jesus said, “all authority has been given to Me,” (Matt 28:18). Evil is defeated; the battle is won. We are saved. All that is left is to help save others. We are not in the midst of a Holy War, but rather a Holy Rescue Mission. Sometimes that requires we fight, but we must not lose sight of the goal. Not the defeat of all evil, but that “…God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (1 Tim 2:3-4)
SPOILED- Americans need to go abroad and really see how GREAT Life is in the USA.
We presently have all the Food, electricity, and heath care.
I am worried about the Electric Grid after going to South Africa and seeing black outs 2-5 hours a day.
We also forget that,even with a conservative Supreme Court, the current POTUS is ruling by executive fiat, and ignoring Supreme Court rulings and Congress . We hear crickets from the media (left and right) and from Congress . What goes around inevitably comes around.
I like that he interviews people to remind us that they look as human as we do. Because they act like monsters is their fault and they should be held accountable.

And what would be so wrong getting into the minds and opinions of those you hate? I dunno but maybe some insight might lower the temperature
PS: I’ll not stop reading your columns but have had some thought earthquakes of your reasoning of late
Amazed that some people are entirely missing the moment.
Eric - What you think about Tucker';s assessment of the 01-06-2020 non=insurrection?
Ohio was purple for a VERY LONG time. The POTUS race used to go through it. It's not beet red yet, but it's getting there.
Tucker got the biggest interview of the year. Are you just being jealous? Sure Putin fed us some propaganda, but also some perspective. So little time is given by the press on the question "Why did Putin invade?". If Russia signed a defense pact with Mexico and stationed troops in Monterey, the US wouldn't let that stand.

Sometimes what you write makes sense. This is not one of those...
Be honest, would anything Carlson did shock you? I could see him going full Snowden, but without the espionage.

There are reports that “top secret” stickers were put on documents for show. Talk about poisoning the well.

You are blowing it Erick with all due respect.
