Tucker Carlson: Ben Shapiro, pro-Israel voices don't care about America
Jerusalem Post ^ | 12/31/2023 | Staff

It was not the first time that Carlson, the 53 year old heir to the Swanson TV dinner fortune, had challenged American support for Ukraine’s wartime leader. On the first episode of his online program following his firing from Fox News, Carlson described Zelensky, who is Jewish, as “sweaty and rat-like, a comedian turned oligarch, a persecutor of Christians, a friend of Blackrock.”

He also referred to him as “shifty,” “dead-eyed,” and as “a person who would enjoy flooding villages or starting a famine.”

“It’s painful to even quote that,” said Ian Bremmer of the Eurasia group, in a response to Carlson’s statements. “These are all antisemitic dog-whistles, with a sprinkling of blood libel, plain and simple.”

The Anti-Defamation League also denounced Carlson’s comments about Zelensky as antisemitic: “This is exactly the type of dangerous, hateful content that has no place in mainstream public squares,” the group said.

Tucker is crafting a persona for public consumption and to sell product. Himself. Tucker’s leaked emails proved he is all show biz fakery. Certainly now only the dullest tools in the shed are his dupes.

Why don’t you post the history of Zelensky, which we all know is above reproach. 🙄

You don’t bother with me anymore and you’re writing me long love letters?

All the ridiculous things posted about Putin, and you worry about singling her out? Yawn.

If Tucker hadn’t trashed President Trump in those texts and emails, he would still have a job at Fox.

Tucker is crazy enough on foreign policy that he could be working for China. He will end up angrily opposing Trump.

“Tucker is a secular Conservative with no Biblical Worldview.”

He’s Episcopal. They aren’t known for deep dives into Theology. He has his moments, but most of his thoughts and beliefs are, as you mentioned, secular.

Tucker’s a loose cannon, but it seems like everybody is at least a little crazy nowadays.

Heh! I didn’t know about that description. That might even be better than “Uppity foreigner in a t-shirt.”

“ Tucker Carlson still hasn’t condemned Hamas.”
************************************************

Well, De Minimus, I see you’re still on your jihad against Tucker because he puts America first and doesn’t slavishly support giving Zelensky endless billions of American Taxpayer money.

You’re SO PREDICTABLE!

“ The U.S. Navy and Marines had their genesis in traveling across the Atlantic to fight the Islamic Barbary pirates, who were interfering with international shipping. So even in the early days of this nation, the need to protect America’s interests anywhere on the globe was well recognized.”

There are NO VITAL AMERICAN INTERESTS IN UKRAINE,

Jeez, I see the cancer of the Ukrainian propaganda operatives is spreading beyond Reverend Mom’s Daily Kiev Pravda thread.

Why don’t you just get lost if you have nothing to add to the conversation.

Are you an alcoholic as well as a fake here?

You don’t think Hamas should be denounced? Are you that misled?

Tucker is a kook.
