Credit where due: though Fox News host Tucker Carlson may not have been the clear winner in last night’s debate with Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) over #TrumpRussia conspiracy theories, he does deserve a trophy for participating in the very discussion in which many other Americans are also currently engaged.
Did Trump bomb Syria purely due to Bashar al-Assad’s alleged use chemical weapons? Or was this a more cynical move to distance this administration from conspiratorial ties to Putin’s regime (as was suggested by Moulton.)
In a 12-minute segment on last night’s Tucker Carlson Tonight, Rep. Moulton floated the notion that perhaps the Trump White House sought to distract media attention with the recent attack on Syria. Moulton, a former Marine Corp officer, was among the first to laud the President for an effective and proportionate response to the use of chemical weapons. But Carlson wouldn’t let him off the hook, suggesting that the Massachusetts Democrat should be “embarrassed” by his conspiracy theories, mocking the congressman for his views, dismissing it as “a conspiracy so grand, so complex, so baroque, that I stand in awe of the possibility that’s real.”

============================================
(HAT TIP OMEGATOO)
<><> If the information found in the ‘incidental’ involvement of any US Person was threatening US Security, and America citizens' safety, why did US security agencies wait for Rice’s request to unmask?
<><> Did Obama issue a secret stand down order?
<><> Why did Rice on PBS initially deny responsibility for the unmasking?
<><> Why was this threat not unveiled at the time or since? Why now?
Alarmingly, the ‘threat’ was about to be inaugurated as President of the US. Shouldn’t Congress have been notified?
The NSA didn’t unmask the information initially, plus later investigations found NO collusion between Russia and Trump.
Seems to be proof-positive that whatever suspicions Obama/Rice may have had to justify the unmasking were absolutely wrong, or more likely non-existent.
=============================================
Questions for Rice:
1. When did you request the unmasking, and from which agency?
2. Who in that agency actually did the unmasking? Please provide the written requests you submitted.
3. Once the names were unmasked, did you still believe there was a threat to national security from the named US persons?
4. If so, with whom did you share the information, and what actions were taken to protect America and American citizens?
5. If you did not, then you should not have shared the names with anyone else, so how did the names become known?
6. Why was any of the info detailed here deliberately withheld on the FISA application?

Contact your Representative and Senators---demand these questions be asked.
I watched it also ,,, it was pitiful ,,, she had no factual defense , just made up talking points and no source for her lose claims ,, it was a massacre .
I’d remind Moulton that he is part of a party which actively supports communists, islamists, is anti-God and complicit in any other perversion that comes down the pike. It no longer represents what is good or decent for America in any way, shape or form.
He’s one of them, no doubt. But I’d still tell him.
I wanted to reach through the screen and tear that Liberal RAT’s hair, what he had left, out.
IMO, Carlson is too meek. Why didn’t he ask the RAT ass hat about Hitlery’s dealings with Russia and about Zero and Hitlery’s uranium deal? Tucker could have listed ten items that tie the RATs to Russia?? Why does Tucker sit there rolling his eyes every night? Take it to the RATs and finish them off.
Love his show, only, many of his guests really pi$$ me off. Many times I just have to ‘mute’ the show until the next guest.
The representative was a moron. Another example of the kind of people we vote for, install, and expect to carry out our wishes. Ha!
I don’t think Tucker tries to win debates. He tries to expose these illogical idiots. And he does that very well.
Because he lets too many of his guests control the narrative.
I posted on this board over a month ago that the guests know exactly what to do when they come on his show. If you notice, they keep on ranting and speechifying without coming up for air and they over-talk his attempts to cut in, and try as he may, he's mostly unsuccessful in stopping the bubble machine. So he rolls his eyes and giggles a lot.
When he does talk, a lot of what he says is lost in the wild over-talking that takes place. He's wonderful when he has sane guests to interview and he's sharp as a tack in his conservatism and his facts.
However, he doesn't know how to take back control of the crazy professors and other leftist weirdos that he interviews.....and so much time is wasted on such raucous Towers of Babel that I use my mute, or click over to CNN or MSNBC for a few minutes to see what the enemy is up to.
I don't think Tucker will change, certainly he knows by now that a lot of listeners don't like the shouting and screeching and the resulting incoherence from both Tucker and his guests. Perhaps he thinks these segments are his trademark, or whatever.
I know precisely what Carlson is doing, i.e., he knows (and we all know) that given enough rope his liberal and radical interviewees inevitably hang themselves.
But speaking for myself, this particular schtick of his is being OVER-DONE....and it has worn thin for me. I hope he exercises more control over these nightly events because I love him to death and I hope he has a great and lengthy career as a spokesman for our cause.

“”But speaking for myself, this particular schtick of his is being OVER-DONE....and it has worn thin for me””
Can’t agree more. Same here - the first week with the scowling, I thought this is not going to be tolerable very long...I don’t watch it when something like that starts up. I may go back but if it’s more of the same, I move on. It almost appears that he is trying to annoy people. We wouldn’t even know these people existed if he didn’t have them on his show and WHY do we need to hear them and their loony ideas?
“”she had no factual defense””
SHE? Were you watching the show in question?
To the Democrat party faithful it matters little whether Trump invaded or not; the most nefarious motives will be ascribed.
