Tucker Carlson said something very brave about Nixon’s political demise
American Thinker ^ | 20 Jan, 2023 | Andrea Widburg

If he’s right, he’s put himself in the Deep State crosshairs and, if he’s wrong, he looks foolish. Either way, speaking up was a risk.

I always find Tucker Carlson’s monologues interesting, and that’s true whether I agree with him or not. I also find that he’s very brave, speaking truths that others in the media either oppose or are scared to utter. Thursday night saw Tucker take one of his bravest stands yet, advancing a spin on Watergate that, if true, puts him in the Deep State’s crosshairs and, if he’s wrong, makes him look utterly foolish.

Tucker’s monologue began by pointing out that Biden is the architect of every existential disaster facing America today. It’s impossible to argue with that. Indeed, the only argument is the one coming from the left, and it’s a shift in perspective, not one in fact. To the left, Biden’s open borders, support for the Ukraine War, attacks on individual liberty, and the war on American moral and cultural norms (including his support for racial divisions and transgenderism) are all good things that purify America.

Where Tucker went beyond the obvious into the land of bravery was to say that the Deep State was behind John F. Kennedy’s assassination and, when Nixon started nosing around, the Deep State took him out too: (video at link)

(If you don’t want to watch the video, this article summarizes it.)

As I said, when you put yourself out as Tucker did, you’re either right and the Deep State may come for you, or you’re wrong, in which case you risk your credibility. I’ll just add a couple of observations.

Nixon was a patriot. If he was “their” puppet, they would not have touched him. Richard was a gentleman and a patriot. Only Reagan measures up to his stature. The IC community needs more than a gentle housecleaning.

I think he just read Roger Stone’s Book (The man who killed Kennedy). I’m not a conspiracy guy, but when you read that book and then dig into the footnotes to check for accuracy ... well, it becomes pretty clear what happened in Dallas that day. And, according to the book, Nixon probably knew. Everything Tucker is talking about is in the book.

The Left wanted Nixon’s scalp ever since he served on HUAC. They finally got it.

If Nixon was President today in 2023, no way he would have gotten impeached in the first place.

pattern matching

They got rid of Spiro Agnew for much less than Camal Toe has done to date.

Insert G Ford.

Impeach Nixon via the mass media and Ford stood no chance.

Sha-Zam. We had the shit show of Little Jimmy Carter for 4 years.....

He didn’t fight the 1960 Election, because it would be bad for the country.

Agree. I’m 3/4 the way through Stones book about how Johnson,the CIA and mafia joined forces and took out JFK. He backs up his claim. Serious stuff. Hard to believe but I tink it’s true. Tucker isn’t just brave, he knows this also

“A man I knew was a POW at war’s end. When they traveled to freedom he was amazed at the success of the bombings, after learning more he said the US would have won if they had maintained the attacks for a little longer.”

Sometime after the North had flattened the South (thank you democrats) Vietnamese Defense Minister, General Võ Nguyên Giáp, stated that the North was two months away from total collapse when the bombing stopped. Two months and the war would have had a different outcome. Giáp wasn’t sure the North would have gotten the backing of Russia or China after having lost once.

Yes, of course, regardless of one’s general opinion of Nixon, favorable or not, he would had to have known who shot John.

Surprise surprise, Nixon and John weren’t best buds but Nixon had no animus against John. John was just a political opponent to him and nothing more. One might reasonably assume that Nixon at least had sympathy for John’s widow and kids.

He had dirt. The audio recording of him on the buss discussing where he could grab girls. It was hard for women to vote for him. They just hated Hillary more.

“He had dirt. The audio recording of him on the buss discussing where he could grab girls.”

Since when is grabbing girls, and he specified WILLING girls, dirt?

You have got to be kidding me. Grabbing girls is part of the mating game. There is not a mother alive who has not warned their daughters about it.

I’m surprised that Tucker has not had an unfortunate accident.

Dear Lord, Protect that man.

Thank you for the answered prayer of exposing all this.

Now what?

Read the transcript. Trump never said that he did that. What he said is that in those circles, one could do something as extreme as that, but the claim that he said he would to up to women and grab them is wrong.
