If tweet fails to load, click here. I never got the impression Tucker is funded by Qatar.

Because she is fricking insane.

Anyone who doesn't blindly support Israel is "woke right" and "Qatari funded" to these people. It's meaningless

I saw some rumblings on X that both Kash and Bondi were paid lobbyists for Qatar before entering government service. Any truth to that?

Not sure about that, but Dan was asked about issues near and dear to his heart and his first answer was "Israel. Defense of Israel."

When people talk about the "deepstate", 9 times out of 10 they mean Israel and don't know it

There are allegations for the past 3-4 months that Tucker (and a few other "Right Wing" influencers, but especially Tucker), have gotten a large amount of money from Qatar.
Its pretty well documented through public records that Qatar has done a lobbying blitz in recent years. They have paid out a lot of money, but I am not aware of any evidence of a direct payment to Tucker.

Who was it that said Qatar is the CIA hub? Was it SD?

IDK about Bondi but Kash cucked out to Israel real hard.
Not saying you can get paid off by both Israel and Qatar, but it does seem incompatible.
But if we are going to have foreign influence in America maybe a little Qatar influence is not so bad to offset the overwhelming amount of Israel influence.

You folks dont actually follow the news?
quote:
According to an investigation by the Washington Examiner, numerous instances were documented where lobbying efforts targeting American journalists were promptly followed by the publication of highly favorable articles about Qatar—sometimes within just days. One of the most notable successes was an interview Tucker Carlson conducted with Qatar’s Prime Minister, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, which garnered over six million views within hours of its release.
quote:
This interview was a significant achievement for Qatar’s public relations efforts, coordinated by the American consulting firm Lumen8 Advisors. According to a contract filed under FARA, the firm receives a fixed monthly payment of $180,000 from the Qatari Embassy in Washington for services including strategic communications consulting and media training.
Tucker Carlson was not the only target. On February 20, 2025, a Fox News employee received a text message from a representative of GRV Strategies, another lobbying firm working on behalf of Qatar, suggesting a “foreign policy story idea.” Just three days later, Fox News published an article titled “Qatar Stands Firm Against Iranian Pressure,” citing an anonymous “source familiar with Qatar’s plans.”

I just don’t remember Qatar swinging their dicks around like this. Trying to find out when it started.

I always found it odd that Qatar was funding Texas 4&8.

That's why I laugh when the right goes berserk that Obama/Biden were running some kind of operation for Iran. I'm like, well, that counterbalances all of the Israel/AIPAC influence.

I'll posts nicely about Qatar on the TD PT for $40K a month.

Same. For people like Kash and Bondi...lobbying is a job. As long as they don't carry it with them to government office, who cares? Lobbyists sometimes have to lobby for something, that money stops, and then lobby for the exact opposite when paid to do so, Its a job.
I would have a problem with people pretending to be journalists (influencers) and then not being transparent about a foreign government shading their coverage.
