Tucker Carlson: Why the left so desperately wanted to believe in Jussie, and not in America
Fox ^ | 2019-02-19 21:00 | Tucker Carlson

Posted on 02/19/2019 6:50:16 AM PST by Monrose72

When TV star Jussie Smollett claimed to be the victim of a racist anti-gay attack at the hands of two Trump supporters, virtually the entire news media and a parade of politicians immediately believed him and demanded the rest of us do so as well. Now, that story is coming completely apart, with police sources saying Smollett likely orchestrated the entire attack himself. But while we wait for the facts to come to light, it is worth remembering that almost 3,000 people were shot in the City of Chicago last year -- women, small children -- sometimes alone and sometimes in groups. Many hundreds of them died, and not a single one received anything like the attention the media has lavished on a relatively minor assault alleged by Smollett.

Here’s the video version of this. One of the best segments he’s done, IMO.

Face it. There no longer exists a common consensus of values in America. This is the consequence of “diversity” and identity politics. Remember Lincoln’s warning. A nation divided cannot stand.

As long as people give this sort of hoax air time and build it into some sort of soap opera, nuts will try to emulate the act/crime. Even K. Harris and her Rubiks Cube sequined jacket was shown ad nauseum as hard. T.C. is usually better than that.

"...one of the best segments [Tucker Carlson] has ever done, IMHO..."


That was a superb analysis by Tucker Carlson about prevailing conditions in our nation thanks to the race hustlers.

TC produces some of the best reasoned commentary on TV/radio today.

The murders in Chicago cannot be blamed on any Whitey, so they are ignored. But the moment someone blames an event that didn’t happen on Whites, the media is all over it. Truth doesn’t matter. The goal is eliminating Whitey, after taking all his money.

What a thoughtful hard hitting professional segment. It’s refreshing to see such top notch journalism in today’s media with so much fake news, biased reports, and anti-Trump venom.

Bravo Tucker. Sheesh, Sharpton was invited to the WH about monthly for 8 years under Obama. O’reilly used to have him do a segment. The guy is a disgrace, yet he is earning a nice living as a media person - amazing.

Back to this new slug Smollet, he had better get jail time or they can stop saying Blacks get longer prison sentences for the same crimes as Whites.

“The murders in Chicago cannot be blamed on any Whitey, so they are ignored.”

They find a way. The anxiety so many feel as a result of white supremacist haters who hate has driven them to shoot one another. Blacks killing blacks is the fault of a white man they think is orange who wears a red hat. Democrat obsession with color has become tiresome.

Because the left wants power, that is all.
