Well, Piers Morgan is off his program across the pond in the United Kingdom after his intense criticism of the interview Meghan Markle and Prince Harry did with Oprah Winfrey. Morgan, to his credit, has stood by his scolding of this gruesome twosome as he exits Good Morning Britain. The couple alleges racism regarding the birth of their son, Archie, how Meghan was suicidal, and a whole bunch of other stuff that was either unremarkable or unbelievable. Markle says she never Googled Harry while they dated. Yeah, and my father’s the Pope. Are you kidding me, lady? Also, this isn’t a family. It’s an institution and you're public figures, so spare us the ‘media is mean to me’ whine-fest. We all know why this is being discussed. It goes beyond the ‘this is the royals’ angle and palace intrigue. It’s the racism bit. The allegation is enough to get the Left in a frenzy—and it has. Markle knew what fishing lure to use and the progressive Left has come rushing in; it’s all utterly predictable. So, with this being a topic of discussion, who best to further slice and dice this detached and coddled couple than Fox News’ Tucker Carlson.
The duchess sits on millions of dollars, lives in a mansion, and is able to speak to Oprah, which was seen by scores of people, but she has it rough. She’s powerless. She’s been silenced. Carlson noted something idiotic about all of this: it’s not true. I know you picked that up from the get-go. And it’s not just her. Carlson also tossed Michelle Obama who said this at the Democratic National Convention, “Now, I understand that my message won't be heard by some people. We live in a nation that is deeply divided, and I am a Black woman speaking at the Democratic convention.”
For international women’s day please consider supporting women enduring online harassment. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the harassment and smear campaign I’ve had to endure over the past year has destroyed my life. No one should have to go through this.— Taylor Lorenz (@TaylorLorenz) March 9, 2021
Absurd. Carlson noted that she’s only the first lady speaking during primetime in America. Victimhood, racism, and being the thought police have become the digital heroin of our time—and it’s now caught onto the wealthy and powerful. It’s backward, folks—and Carlson zeroes in on the idiocy underneath the Markle whine-fest. He also touched upon New York Times reporter Taylor Lorenz who apparently had her life destroyed after she peddled a total lie about business tech entrepreneur Marc Andreessen using the word “retard” while hosting an event on Clubhouse. Yeah, she had some mean stuff hurled her way, but it’s her fault. She lied. And got some flak, which was deserved. Carlson noted that Lorenz’s life is still pretty golden (via Fox News):
Tucker Carlson on Meghan Markle and other powerful figures portraying themselves as victims:
"The most powerful people are pretending to be powerless... When you’re a victim, you are inherently significant. Martyrdom means you are forever the hero of the story." pic.twitter.com/LmiYtnyAm9— Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) March 10, 2021
What’s going on here? A lot of things, probably. For rich people, deciding that you’re a victim has many levels of appeal. For one thing, it gives meaning to your decadent, empty life. There are only so many expensive vacations you can take to St. Barth’s, only so many overpriced clothes you can buy, only so many dumb parties you can go to in Aspen before you begin to realize that none of it is enough. None of it really means anything. It’s empty. Victimhood solves that problem. When you’re a victim, you’re inherently significant. Martyrdom means you’re forever the hero of the story. So you can see why narcissists love it, and there are a lot of those right now.
But there is another, darker effect of all this, an effect that has changed our country. When powerful people decide they’re oppressed, the balance of power changes. If you were very rich, you might imagine that you owed something to the people below you. Noblesse oblige, they used to call it, back when we had a responsible ruling class that thought about other people.
Previous generations of rich people understood this very well, and they taught their children this: To whom much is given, much is expected. That was the deal for centuries. But self-identified victimhood instantly nullifies this deal, and restores power to the powerful. No one expects anything from a victim. Victims don’t give, they receive.
"That poor duchess," you think to yourself, "I hope she’s OK". Of course, she should be thinking that very thing about you, but she’s not.
We’re not done with this yet, folks. There’s going to be more Markle drama. Didn’t we fight a revolution so we wouldn’t have to deal with this nonsense? Yes, but when a racism allegation is lobbed into the fray—chaos reigns.
FWIW, there were so many competing monarchs the first several centuries of what we now refer to as England, there aren’t many remaining of those bloodlines. QEII certainly doesn’t draw any blood relationship to those early monarch. She’s BARELEY related to King Henry VIII. Barely, something like Great Niece x25.
Ultimately, the House of Windsor is just as German as it is anything else, arguably even more German than anything else.
That’s true...but certain skills developed while on one’s back can also serve a woman well. Just look at Commie Harris.
Poor Michelle couldn’t make eye contact with the racist mothers in an ice cream store either. Poor Michelle.
This race hysteria has reached a fever’s pitch. It’s like the Salem witch trial. It will continue until it runs out of victims.

...this gruesome twosome...
Aptly named. Hard to understand why anyone in the USA really, really gives a sh*t about these two morons?
“Oh woe is me”, says the petulant pampered princess
As Tucker points out, this isn’t about the Royal Monarchy. It’s about the culture war we face. Dems during Kennedy believed ‘ask not what your country can do for you....’etc.... . But if you fulfilled your Societal responsibilities, you wouldn’t need government. Can’t have a bunch of do good er individuals running around, can they?
“That’s true...but certain skills developed while on one’s back can also serve a woman well. Just look at Commie Harris.”
***************************************************************
I suspect that she wasn’t on her back most of the time while developing those skills and her expertise.
No, Harry was an Apache pilot. William flew Search And Rescue choppers for the RAF.
CC
Mea culpa.
Harry did fly choppers.
William flew search and rescue and ambulance choppers after his service.
Hohenzollerns I believe. Victoria, Kaiser Wilehlm, and Tsar Nicholas were all cousins. The love of Victoria's life, Prince Albert, was German. Lord Mountbatten? He changed from 'Prince Louis of Battenberg' to Mountbatten to Anglicize his name.
Any woman in the world and he dove head first into the shallowest end of the pool.
Well, good luck Harry.
You’re going to need it.
You’re right.
I went with my faulty memory instead of checking the facts.
Harry went in as infantry but passed the tests for pilot training.
“I disagree with you that Harry is a wannabe prince. He is a real prince, but I predict that Meghan will get tired of him and divorce him in a few years. I think he made a mistake marrying her.”
Yeah, after she’s dug up all his gold.
She is the classic definition of a Succubus.
“A woman who latches on to men and takes everything they have along with their pride, whilst leaving them under the impression that they are there for good. When there is nothing left to take, they’re gone and you’re an alcoholic.”
Wow, 17.1 million people had nothing better to do than watch the big Look At Me event? How sad.
Candace Owens had good advice the other day, which I took. “I do not intend to watch Meghan and Harry’s interview tonight. I hardly need to.“
Cinderella syndrome, every woman has it and Meghan had it worse than most.
She said she didn’t know who Prince Harry was? And you think that statement lends to her credibility? Just wow.
That was the NY Post report I wasn't one of them.
These two dopes perfectly represent the failure of our education system and leftist values.
