I agree with this. It's also proof that there is no voting our way out of this. The Republican Party is a joke and the media establishment will never allow a 3rd party any meaningful coverage or debate.



At this point, if you start seeing a republican candidate get a lot of play on Fox and it doesn't at least start to pique your suspicions at least a little, I don't know what to say.

Notice how Tucker, after a ton of pre-release teases, only got a few days of the Twitter files release ? Someone shut his arse down then, too.

Tucker sent text messages saying he hated Trump.

Is Fox moving back toward Trump?

I’d like it if Tucker fired up the old Golden EIB microphone.
I'd love to see him run for political office. He could blow up the swamp in 30 days. He is a principled and fearless man.

These are two of my favorites insights into who he really is: LINK LINK

Glenn Beck says the language used in the press release is the same as the press release that was made when Beck left Fox. Beck says Fox didn't fire him but wanted him to make changes he was unwilling to do. Beck was all but inferring that the same thing happened to Carlson.

Who knows, but I will definitely be suspicious as hell if he's suddenly all over Hannity's show.

It's why I didn't specify a candidate.

I guess you thought this was some sort of gotcha, though.

I didn't watch much of the others, but my impression has always been that TC was the least bought into the "election steal."
So how exactly did he reconcile 81 million votes? What about the 3AM shenanigans? How about the states that changed elections laws at the 11th hour? You have to be brain dead not to know that the 2020 election was a farce. Now mistakes could have been made where numbers were higher than they should be and the outcome might have been the same. You will never convince me that 150 million people voted in 2020. in 2016 there were 125 million.

You know, he could have not bought into the "election steal" industry because nobody has been able to prove it. That doesn't mean he didn't believe there was substantial frickery around the election, and in fact I'm pretty sure he's made comments to that effect on his show recently.

Wouldn’t be shocked to find out that there was a under the table agreement in the settlement that Tucker had to be fired.

I feel we to a step back from fascism today.
The dram queens at DU got the news about Tucker

“This may just seem like a news guy got fired, but it's really a huge propaganda spewer that the crazies can't hear their crap from.

This really is a great day for america”

Fox tweeted a less than ideal image of Tucker about his firing. Wild stuff.


If the firing is due to the Dominion settlement then Bartiromo and Pirro should be next to walk the plank. During the trial, Dominion claimed 18 of the 20 defamation allegations were committed by Dobbs, Bartiromo, and Pirro.

In theory perhaps (purely from the standpoint of seeing two "sides" play off each other for a change). But Lemon is such a massive dolt that I don't think it would work.

This is the kind of no proof, internet speculation that would be reported as fact on the Tucker Show which is ultimately why he is gone.

In America you have the freedom to can say this all you want on a street corner or internet chat room as your "personal opinion".

But if you say it with the primary motivation to get rich and you dont have solid proof, you will end up in court. Tucker would text - i don't believe this to someone same time as he is saying it on the air - cause he is only about the money.
