Putin sees theoretical possibility of Tucker Carlson's arrest in US

At the same time, the Russian leader emphasized that it will be 'hard to press this type of charges against Carlson'

MOSCOW, February 15./TASS/.Russian President Vladimir Putin believes that the arrest of US journalist Tucker Carlson in the United States is theoretically possible, although it will be very hard to press any charges.

"(Wikileaks founder Julian) Assange remains in custody, an practically no one remembers him. Only his family and friends still keep raising the issue and that's all," the Russian leader said in an interview to journalist Pavel Zarubin, when asked whether Carlson may be arrested in his home country.

At the same time the Russian leader emphasized that Assange was accused of divulging state secrets, and it will be "hard to press this type of charges against Carlson, because he had no relation to any secrets whatsoever."

"Nevertheless, apparently, everything is possible in present-day America." Putin added.

I think Putin and Tucker probably joked about this possibility, and Putin is playing the Biden admin to see how they react.

Tucker’s arrest is quite a stretch.

President Putin knows very well that, in October, 2006 (when he was six years into his first presidential term), the renowned Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya was not merely arrested, but murdered.

Surprise, surprise! These days, there's very little dissent expressed in Russian media against the government.

Putin is old, is dying and has every incurable disease known to man.
Basically he has alzheimer’s and thank god Biden is in such great shape. We know that if we elect agent Orange somehow that Putin will walk all over him.

Who knows about Kamala, maybe she can end up on top.

So let us be a good example to the world and Free Julian Assange.

The US Justice Department can back out of prosecution any time it wants to.

Those were just off the top of my head. Three brain cells deeper, I’ve got McDougal, Koresh, TWA 800, Ron Brown, Paul Wellstone, the other Kennedy that crashed his plane on a clear day over NY Harbor, Viki Weaver, Barry Seals, Sonny Bono, and of the horrific Bud Dwyer.

Well, of course. That should be obvious to anyone with a non-drug addled brain.

They could arrest Tucker Carlson.

They could kill Donald Trump.

“Putin sees theoretical possibility of Tucker Carlson’s arrest in US”

Putin just DESTROYED the Neocon opportunity to arrest Tucker, for if they do so now, they’re simply “Playing into PUTIN’S hands”.

Now the Neocons will have to go to the old standby of planting kiddie porn on Tucker’s computer.

Clearly you’re on a roll, and it does not refect well at all on the powers that be.

Free Julian Assange

I would imagine that would be largely up to the new Climate Czar, John Podesta.
