Tucker Carlson Calls Out Don Lemon for Not Covering Susan Rice 'Unmasking' Story

On Tuesday night's broadcast of Fox News' “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson took the opportunity to go after one of his cable news rivals over an editorial decision.

As you may recall, in the wake of reports that former National Security Adviser had requested the identities of Trump transition team members from raw intelligence, CNN's Don Lemon announced that he wouldn't “insult the intelligence” of his viewers by discussing the story. Well, Carlson felt this deserved to be called out.

So cool seeing other news outlets calling CNN #FAKENEWS.

Washington Times has done this also.

Wouldn’t it be sweet irony if the same person (susan rice) who lied about Benghazi and took one for the “team” is the same person who ends up bringing down that same corrupt “team”.

What was she thinking? That she could break all kinds of laws pertaining to abusing her position and if caught take all the blame herself thereby relieving obama and other complicit members of that “team” of any wrongdoing? Obama is complicit merely because he changed the rules on whom the classified info was sent to and how it was sent just 17 days before he was finished. He knew he was committing a crime right then. I’ll leave it to the courts to decide what laws were broken but he knows what he did was wrong just as he always knew all the wrongdoing committed during his error as President.

America has never imprisoned a previous US President for crimes committed during his term(s) as President. America has never had someone so criminally or morally corrupt as obama as President before either. To kill a snake you cut off its head. Obummer is the head snake in the snake infested DC swamp.

Cooler still would be to witness other news outlets calling “fakenews what it is; LIES and its purveyors LIARS.

“Just found out that Mark Steyn has his own You Tube channel =>”

Since Mark Levin “fired” Mark Steyn from his internet station for no good reason, Steyn has been popping up with great regularity on Fox Cable News. I’m sure he is being auditioned for a position as a Fox News Contributor. Fox would be incredibly lucky to have Steyn on board.

Rice is a very accomplished child of privilege. That said, her performance and escape from charges in the Benghazi mess was nothing short of miraculous. Now for an encore, she’s teetering for a fall in another mess. Her thus having been twice bitten indicate to me she’s not the sharpest knife in the Dim drawer. Rather she’s some ultimate “useful idiot”.

Listening the other day as she was softball pitched by Andrea Mitchell, it occurred to me ‘what if Rice has a “get-out-of-jail” card from Obama; a pardon or whatever the appropriate terminology. Signed while his feet were still atop the Resolute desk, it was intended as a goal-line defense against future charges of any wrong-doing.

No real clue if such a backdated document would still be valid but there was talk in the “final days” of presidential pardons being an option for some members of the administration.

Well, if this doesn't stick, we can always accuse her of plagiarism. That is the ultimate crime for the far left.

Yes, what was she thinking?

"I'm a leftist black female friend of barack and I can get away with anything. I am invincible."

Mark Levin fired Steyn?
I bought CRTV specifically to see Steyn. Then a month later he’s gone.
Really really angry about that.
Is this CR— owned by Levin?

You note that Rice was a child of privilege. True. That privilege led her to the White House where as a thirty year old she became special assistant to the president and senior director for African affairs in 1995. In that post she screwed-up royally, being first part of the unnecessary closing of the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum. Second, it was Rice who led the Clinton admin to turn down the Sudan offer of Osama Bin Laden on a silver platter. Despite being an unindicted co-conspirator in the Trade Center bombing, and being culpable for Al Qaeda atrocities in Somalia and Bosnia, she refused his extradition. State Department hands hated her imperiousness and thought she would be done forever. Unfortunately for America, given her race, her connections, and her innate sycophancy she survived.

I wouldn’t think it would be possible to insult the intelligence of this clown’s audience.

You left out the fact that her advice and counsel was what prevented Bill Clinton from intervening in Rwanda during the Rwanda genocide. She has the blood of a million Africans on her hands.

Anyone remember that catchy little jingle for Ricaroni?
I’m working on a special version for a YouTube video and having trouble with some of the rhyming. Perhaps some of you could help me. Here’s one of the parts I’m having trouble with:
“Rice the phony, another White House twit.
Rice the phony, the broad who don’t know_____”
That’s the part I’m stuck on!
