Tucker Carlson Debuts Twitter Show Saying The News Media Lies, Cites As An Example ‘UFOs Are Actually Real’
Forbes ^ | 6/7/2023 | Mark Joyella

Posted on 06/07/2023 9:16:44 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

Tucker Carlson released the first episode of “Tucker on Twitter” Tuesday night, opening with a casual “hey, it’s Tucker Carlson”

-snip-

Carlson—who said that “in journalism, curiosity is the greatest crime”—cited a widely reported claim by an Air Force veteran that the U.S. government had recovered proof of UFOs, including an intact aircraft of “non-human origin.” Carlson said of the story that “UFOs are actually real” and “in a normal country this news would qualify as a bombshell—the story of the millennium.”

Carlson noted that The New York Times had several stories on Ukraine, Donald Trump, trans people and climate change, but “not one word” on “an alien species flying hypersonic aircraft over our cities.”

Yeah. When did you walk away from the faith?

Tucker has a far greater chance of being accurate on UFOs than Forbes, or any MSM outlet has to be correct on anything.

Anything at all.

“ . . . but “rats” and “sweaty” don’t cut it unless you are just trying to smear Tucker as an antisemite.“

Unfairly smearing him is exactly what they are going to try to do.

Conservatives must be inordinately careful, or we face absurd attacks.

Again, I am not saying there’s any merit to that — but I understand the enemy well. They will do anything and everything to silence effective conservative voices.

Yes, they are things that are flying in the air and unidentified.

But they are not aliens from other planets.

Most of the evidence comes in the form of testimony from reliable and intelligent witnesses. The physical evidence gets hidden away. Bear in mind that everything, EVERYTHING, we know about Christ comes from credible witnesses, with not a shred of physical evidence.

Only a deeply wounded cynic would set aside the mountain of testimony that accompanies the UFO phenomenon.

...They seem to like to remain aloof and unidentifiable...

That is actually quite perceptive.

How does believing there is more to God's Creation than just man here on Earth indicate a lack of Faith? To my way of thinking, it is an acknowledgement that God's Creation is expansive and wondrous.

Please, give me a Biblical reference that indicates there are not other objects of God's Love out in the Cosmos.

Tucker: "Zelensky is a “sweaty and rat-like”, and a "persecutor of Christians”

Yep. Tucker is right. It's the Zeepers who are allergic to the Truth.

I’m not going to convince you of anything, nor am I trying. If ya believe out of many trillions of other planets this one is the ONLY one which has life forms, fine. No problem. It’s clear your mind is completely closed off to anything else. Just like those in medieval times who believed this tiny planet was the center of the entire universe.

In fact, I’d guess even if you were provided hard evidence, you still wouldn’t believe it. Am I wrong here?

“Most of the evidence comes in the form of testimony from reliable and intelligent witnesses.”

You say “reliable and intelligent” but I don’t know these people. I have no reason to trust them, more than anyone else who made a career of working for this rotten government.

“The physical evidence gets hidden away.”

How convenient for those arguing that we should believe without any evidence.

“Bear in mind that everything, EVERYTHING, we know about Christ comes from credible witnesses, with not a shred of physical evidence.”

Well, the testimony of people who were willing to be tortured to death in horrible ways rather than recant is a bit more weighty to me than that of some folks from trying to promote a book they wrote just saying “trust me”. Plus, I can test Jesus’ claims for myself, just by attempting to follow his precepts and seeing how it works out. It’s not like I can flag down a passing UFO and check it out for myself.

Information about Christ comes mainly through the Catholic Church. The current pope is invalidating much that came from previous popes, and Scripture. The Catholic Church has done some pretty heinous things throughout its history, much of it aimed to make its members feel that their Salvation comes through the monitory support of the Church. You know those officials through history, yet here you are.

You do not seem to know how to apply your cynicism in a balanced fashion.

“Since when? I’ve never heard of either slur used traditionally against Jews.”

Perhaps you haven’t watched much Nazi propaganda (they don’t really show it much anymore I suppose), but it’s not something that the poster you are replying to pulled out of thin air:

Well, that’s what the Catholics like to claim at least. That doesn’t make it true.

“You do not seem to know how to apply your cynicism in a balanced fashion.”

I think rather that you feel I should apply it less to things that you want me to believe and more to things that you don’t.

I was hoping for a more equal application of cynicism and faith regarding our own. I understand how you feel about the government; however, a very large number of observers were not connected with the government. Furthermore, our government wasn't such a mess years ago, and the people then were more loyal to the citizenry. The secrecy started then and steps were taken to bury the information very deeply.

Look at why the government hid the UFO material and information. Also, look at the current trend toward releasing that material, and notice that they put themselves in a hole that is not easy to exit. Moreover, the government spun that stuff out of their own control in order to more tightly compartmentalize access.

The truth of the matter is, our government really is ignorant about this topic. This discovery is new to them and embarrassing as well.

“Look at why the government hid the UFO material and information.”

The way you talk just assumes the “material” and “information” actually exists and is what these “whistleblowers” say it is. Why should I assume that???

Did the government classify investigations into “unidentified flying objects”? Certainly. We have declassified stuff from Project Blue Book and the like that proves it, but of course we have no declassified documents that say “we recovered a spacecraft” or “we found alien bodies”. More like “a lot of people reported they saw something strange and here are the reports we collected”.

“Also, look at the current trend toward releasing that material, and notice that they put themselves in a hole that is not easy to exit.”

I think it’s more enlightening to look at the trend of the government releasing material as a whole, not just on this subject. Invariably, the government releases information that is sanitized, which promotes a narrative that they want people to believe, and fights tooth and nail to never reveal anything that goes against the government’s preferred narrative. So if they are releasing anything on “UFO”s now, I would view it through the same lens, and say they are releasing only what serves their purposes, and their purposes and our interests as a people rarely intersect anymore.

So you think Tucker is a retard or a fool?

The only reason I pursue this topic is to prepare people from the coming shock when they learn that we are not alone in this vast universe. We are also not the pinnacle of scientific and technological knowledge. Many people are unable to integrate this knowledge into their belief systems; and, some have committed suicide upon learning. People of Faith usually take this very badly because they did not integrate such possibilities with their errant Biblical understandings. I have done so. It was not easy.

Just ponder the wonder of God's Creation, its intricacies and mysteries. Try to image a God with more imagination than yourself. Then look at the scale of Creation. Fill in the blanks using the intelligence God gave you.

I was unfamiliar with that trope. I’m just leery of those who try to take down Tucker by affixing these negative labels on him. Like they tried to pronounce him a racist just because he dared to talk about the “great replacement”.
