Love him or hate him, Tucker Carlson has become the most important political analyst of our era. The release to him of suppressed J6 Capitol footage that contradicted the Democrat/media narrative dominated political news until Carlson's questionnaire on Ukraine policy to the potential GOP presidential field knocked it out of the headlines. Not since Woodward and Bernstein dominated the news with Watergate has a media source produced results that focused the national spotlight so completely as Mr. Tucker Carlson. Unsurprisingly, many are the progressives who want to see him knocked off the air.
Last night, he began his top-rated hour-long program with the following startling statement: "You're going to get a hot war with Russia — and China — whether you want one or not."
He followed with analysis of the Black Sea drone incident and the calls for retaliation and escalation from Lindsey Graham and "his friends in the war party" that would likely lead to outright war. And wartime, he noted at the end of the segment, leads to extraordinary suppression of political dissent.
[T]he second we actually go to war with Russia, they will use that as a pretext to crush all dissent. Dissent is not allowed in wartime. And that's what this is really about (in addition to their personal enrichment). It's about changing the domestic politics of the United States. The second we can all say that we are at war with Russia, not 'in effect' but in reality in a hot war which is what they want, that's the moment you are no longer allowed to express your opinion. And the penalty is jail during war.
He linked the timing of the incident to the war skepticism over Ukraine voiced by many of the GOP respondents to his presidential field questionnaire. He also claimed...

A war would be better than the pandemic in clamping down on civil liberties like 1A and 2A that are a threat to the democRATs.
I’m afraid Tucker may be onto something, and leave it to our Chinese-owned so-called “president” to try to lead us into a war when we’re at our weakest in a LONG time.
He’s Xi Jinping’s puppet.
A hot war with Russia and/or China is unthinkable.
They’re going to cancel the 2024 elections
“Tucker goes there — predicts a hot war with Russia (and maybe China) leading to wartime crushing of political dissent”
I said this a long time ago.
I keep meaning to call a local gun shop to see how far backed up the NICS is. Normalcy bias is gonna bite a lot of people in the arse, methinks, should push come to shove re: WW3
The second we go to war with Russia or China, peevish drivel like this will mean very little to anyone.
On the other hand, the U.S. Government will have more than a foreign war on its hands to deal with as they will have to defend themselves from the citizens in this country who will be hunting them down and eradicating them wherever they are.
he has NOT released the tapes given to him
.... except to help a friend of the Pelosi family.
he is responsible for whatever comes by his
personal choice for sequestration of evidence.
“A hot war with Russia and/or China is unthinkable.”
Agree completely, and that’s exactly why it must be pondered.
“...On the other hand, the U.S. Government will have more than a foreign war on its hands to deal with...”
At which point, Biden will probably suffer some sort of debilitating something and Kamala will become president.
Weak men cause hard times.
Democrats: pajama boys, men can be women, genderqueer and poofters, safe spaces, socialism just hasn’t been tried and all kinds of stuff like that there.
US would lose a war against China and Russia..but you would never learn the truth on the news like Ukraine.
The FR warcons amaze me. They have been lied to time and again by various US government agencies and politicians which has resulted in the deaths and wounding of thousands American GI’s and average citizens. They get on FR and rail against the corruption in the US government damning it to hell.
In the next breath the US intelligence and the Pentagon roll out a possible war with Russia and one leak or news story after another and these same warcons run in an lap up that vomit like dogs, give their lips a big slurp with their tongues and go more please! Then they turn on fellow conservatives who ask the simple question, what is the strategic value of the war of the day to the US? Not what their CNC BiteMe is telling them, not what those brain dead idiots at the Pentagon are saying or the liars in the US intel agencies—what is the real strategic value of a third world war over a corrupt cesspool of a country where WE overthrew an elected leader and installed our corrupt puppet-yes we did this and they ignore it and bleat War-War-War! If you question us you’re a Putin Puppet! I wonder how they are going to like voting for BiteMe in 24 because Trump and DeSantis are not pandering to the warmongers and as the warcons, the media and the establishment have all said—if you are not for WWIII you are a Putin Puppet. How will the war cons vote, the world wonders...
Been saying the same, they don’t even need a war per se. But they do need to create the enemies in order to justify a clampdown, and enact the Sedition Acts they so desperately want.
“You’re going to get a hot war with Russia — and China — whether you want one or not.”
Rad hot?
I won’t work for the Clampdown!
Wrong. The tapes are not in Tucker’s possession to release. If you actually watched Tucker and paid attention, you would know his producers were given access to the tapes at the Capitol. That seems to have been for a limited time. Supposedly, McCarthy is to give more wide spread access to the videos in the near future. Personally, I think the videos should have been uploaded to a server and made available to the entire world without any alteration or censoring. That should have been done long ago, like Jan 7th or 8th.
