Hate to break it to you Eli & Oliver, but this first paragraph probably ain't gonna age well.
If we could jump in our time machine back to 2020 I'm thinking this story would read:
'Tucker Carlson wasn’t always right. He has always had a conspiratorial side, indulging half-baked theories that COVID19 originated from a lab in Wuhan and the vaccinations don’t appear to be safe and effective.'
Its totally plausible that the CIA murdered John F. Kennedy or at least had knowledge of it. You might want to ask RFK Jr about it as well as many others who've gone down the JFK assassination rabbit hole and have uncovered some pretty disturbing things about what happened on November 22, 1963 and who might actually be involved. The governments probably keeping much of the 60+ year old investigation documents classified for hoots and grins.
And on the point of the FBI perhaps setting up the January 6 rioters. There's about a 110% chance that there were feds embedded with the protesters that day. I'd wager a few hundred of them. Representative Clay Higgins has spoken openly about it. Not to mention the PR piece 60 minutes did on Ray Epps. Bill Whitaker sounded like he was doing an infomercial for the George Foreman grill in that piece. It was laughable and Epps should have been wearing a cap that read FED on it.
I watched the piece with Larry Sinclair who claimed he smoked crack with Obama. Sounds crazy for sure and I've got no clue if he did or he didn't.....but guess what.....neither do you. Wasn't all that long ago people were saying crazy stuff about giant burning owls at Bohemian Grove only to find out......well......you know.
As for Marjorie Taylor Greene.....yep.....she's said some crazy shit, but lets not forget that Adam Schiff was on 4 news channels a day for two years stating that he's seen first hand evidence that Trump was colluding directly with Russia, so its not like MTG has the market corned in spouting nonsense.
But why don't we be honest here for a minute. The real reason for this sorta hit piece on Tucker is the fact that he had someone on his show that might just possibly have thrown some shade on Israel and that just won't do. If he was interviewing any number of the 'pro Israel no matter what, until the end of time and if you don't agree you're an antisemite' talking heads out there, this story would be in a million pieces on cutting room floor.
With all this 'we're going to focus on honest reporting' stuff that everyone likes to carry on about, how come Eli, you didn't actually reach out to Tucker to have a one on one interview with him and challenge his positions and thoughts directly? I mean, I thought that was what hard nosed reporting was supposed to be all about.....at least that's what I understood was a cornerstone of The Free Press.
Tucker can be a little much at times I'd agree, but the guy is fairly on point with most everything he covers.....but hey Eli.....you keep reporting on those crazy conspiracy theorists. Hate to break it to you though.......right now they're batting about .850
The story on the ALA's lies about book banning is appreciated. The vicious intellectual dishonesty of the ALA should be called out everywhere. No books are being banned in the USA and especially not in Florida.
Just throwing this out there, but the CIA likely played a role in the killing of JFK. And, sorry to burst your bubble, but it was FBI informants that started the riots in Jan 6 while most everyone else there were simply political tourists amazed by the capital, the idea that Jan 6 was an “insurrection” is this generation’s political lie
Because the news is just in Katharine Birbalsingh's insistence on secularity in her Michaela school has been ruled as lawful -- the school has not discriminated against Muslim pupils by not providing a prayer room and the student in question admitted that she had made up for the missed prayers at home and had gone to the school knowing it was secular. Thus the takfiri movement to force prayer rooms in schools has been stopped. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/04/16/michaela-community-school-prayer-ban-high-court-ruling-live/
Also yesterday, saw the Cass Report debated in the House of Commons. All the Adult Clinics are now cooperating. Doctors who prescribe PB in England will be struck off (the only permitted prescription in the PB trial) and they will be closing the overseas loophole. It is good to watch the adults return to the room. Atkins putdown of Russel-Moyle complaining about toxicity is brilliant. https://hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2024-04-15/debates/AFE3A39A-3333-4790-AE30-776A474188C4/CassReview
The courage to say no has been something which was lacking the debate. It is good to see it return.
"Anti-Israel protesters blocked the road to Chicago’s O’Hare airport and Seattle’s airport on Monday, forcing travelers to drag their suitcases along the highway to catch their flights. Protesters also blocked the Golden Gate Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge. (ABC)"
And also, of all places, the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge, which I was near last week.
Nowhere's safe to get from one place to another without encountering the tantrums of misled spoiled young people.
I don’t get the Tucker Carlson hate if anyone hasn’t noticed he doesn’t always agree with the people who are on his show he simply provides them with a platform to espouse their ideals or sides of the story. Until about 10 mins ago that was considered journalism.
I feel like I’m reading the New York Times today. Make it stop. There is so much more behind Tucker. I’m not defending everything or everyone he interviews, but he has produced some excellent content this year (Sage Steele, Naomi Wolf most recently) and he dares to go where no other ‘journalist’ will go. The NYT called. They want their reporting back.
I didn't even bother to read TFP today because as I 1st scrolled to see the "10 things were reading" - ABC, CNN, WaPo, NPR(really?) etc. & I just can't anymore.
Bari - please re-think inflicting Wiseman on your readers. We have been with you since Common Sense. All united in the pursuit of truth and the freedom to speak it. Liberals and conservatives, together. But the drift to snarky, leftist commentary is not appreciated. And Wiseman is the worst offender of all.
Tucker lives in Oliver’s and Nellie’s head. Wonder if there’s a secret crush.
The truth can often start as a conspiracy. Yet people jump on the ridicule train pretty quickly. Maybe the truth hides where people don’t want to look.
Like the conspiracy that Slow Joe has become incompetent and Cackles slept her way to the top; oh wait, that’s been proven. My bad!
If you can legally purchase or possess a book, it is not "banned." It is incredibly disingenuous to refer to a book deemed inappropriate for children as banned.
There was a reason the playboy and penthouse magazines were behind the counter at the corner store. This is not book banning but parents watching out for their children. Maybe, just maybe, there’s, little too much grooming going on today.
Tucker has gotten many things right over the years.
He was however always a poorly closeted hater of Jews.Since his ouster from Fox News( which must have kept him somewhat in check) his hatred has been obvious. This does not diminish his intelligence or his “ good calls” but it does not make him immune from the ancient durable and inexplicable hatred that is antisemitism.
By interviewing a known anti Israel mouthpiece from Bethlehem , without mentioning that since Palestinian takeover of that city Christian’s went fro over 80% to less than 20% ( as is typical in Muslim rules countries in the Middle East ) and that only in Israel the Christian community is growing and thriving and is protected, was simply disingenuous and malign. It certainly wasn’t journalism

small detail missed about the stabbing of a priest in Australia—the assailant was shouting Allah Akbar. I’m sure it just an oversight.
Will Australia ban knives now?

Problem is, Tucker is almost always right, I'm old enough to remember when replacement theory sounded nutty, now Democrats admit its true.
A book is banned when it’s sale is prohibited by law. Any other description is political BS.
