When your government is forcing you to take a third job, and miss time being a parent to your child just to make ends meet, so that they can encourage non-citizens to vote, have judges encourage violent criminals to get back on the streets to violent even more, give away money to a religion to flood your country with third world criminals, and print 2 trillion MORE than revenue- a tax increase you can’t vote on - then, yeah, your people are being abandoned.

You just described the left. That has nothing to do with Trump, or Israel, or any war. No one at Fox was stopping Tucker from talking about those issues, as you suggested they did. H e doesn't have some newfound freedom to talk about issues that matter. He has freedom to talk about conspiratorial nonsense and spread Jew hate, and that's all he does now. He's all about Islam. He's all about anyone who opposes Israel, even if the enemies of Israel are our enemies, as well. Tucker isn't a hero, or a voice of reason, he's not a victim, and he's certainly not our friend. He's a liar and a grifter.

I watched Tucker every night, but I noticed toward the end of his run on Fox he was starting to promote conspiracy theories.

If his hero is Tucker then using that logic your hero is Trump. And there’s lots more evidence of the latter than the former. Miles more.

Is the only thing in their calculus. Everything, and I mean *everything* is filtered through that lens.

Every slight, every ill, every negative thing.....is Israel's fault.

Now where have I heard that type of insanity before......

You can blame Congress, corrupt local politicians, the soft arse part of the public addicted to entitlements and leftist judges for all of that. Blaming the Jews is a convenient scapegoat when we should be blaming ourselves for allowing it all to happen

Imagine hating Tucker Carlson because he doesn’t appreciate Israel being on the verge of yet again convincing the Christian West to fight and die on behalf of Israel against their main enemies in the Muslim world.


Imagine not giving a frick about that and just understanding he has changed. More specifically it makes more sense about his texts and how he truly feels about Trump and his supporters. He never had a problem grifting and fake supporting maga at Fox, a man of “principles”….

Did the Darryl Cooper "Fear and Loathing in the new Jerusalem" change him that much?




Having listened to Fear and Loathing, he's exceptionally kind to both sides of that conflict and honest about where they suck.


After the second episode of Enemies: The German's War, I kinda want to take out communists even more.

I think he started out in the right direction, but I honestly think he was turned once he saw what kind of money these batshit takes get you. Candace can say some absolutely insane shite and there's a thousand morons who leap up to argue, repost, sharing it in "disbelief".

Interactions get attention and they make money. It's what is happening with this shift. It's whst happened to Megyn, Hodge Twins, Fuentes, etc.

Tucker is political entertainment and it's turning into WWE out here. It's sad because he had a very bright star.

He's just a propagandist. Fox paid him to say what they wanted him to say. Now that he's basically a free agent, others are paying him to say what they want him to say. Fox news at least had a foundation built from other on air personalities saying the same thing... for tucker to latch onto.

Now his propaganda just seems detached and disjointed. Because he's trying to build the foundation for it as he's saying it, and the only ones who are really backing him up are people like candace owens.

It always amazes me how Israel is colored as the bad guy and not a radical Islamic totalitarian regime that wants full control of the Middle East.

"Stay out of the Middle East"? A very realistic solution, right? No knowledge of history, obviously.
