Tucker Carlson Takes a Break from Regular Programming to Absolutely Shred Meghan Markle
Townhall.com ^ | March 10, 2021 | Matt Vespa

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.

Meghan has several credibility issues. She claimed they took her keys, DL, and passport and was not allowed to leave. In addition, at five months pregnant she was having suicidal thoughts and couldn’t talk to anyone so she went to Human Resources.

In February 2019, Meghan flew private jet to the US for a lavish baby shower hosted by Serena Williams and Amil Clooney. In September of 2019 she came to the US again on a private jet to support her friend Serena Williams in the USOPEN final.

Most curious is that, Meghans mother, Doria Ragland) has a BA degree in PSYCHOLOGY . She further earned a Masters in Social Work and after passing her licensing exam, was a social worker in MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. ( Oprah knows Meghans mother and why didn’t she ask if Meghan had turned to her mother for help)

Assuming Meghan was allowed pre-natal care, why didn’t she speak with her doctor about the possibility of hormonal depression at five months pregnant?

These Monarchy love/hate threads remind me of the time my roommate picked up two young brit guys hitchhiking and brought them home to stay with us for a few days. This was when Dianna and Charles got married and we watched it on TV.

One of the guys was like a love struck puppy watching the event and the other guy couldn’t contain his disgust and narrated the wedding with sarcasm and contempt as only a Brit can do.

When Duchess Meghan Markle descended into the sewer of Cultural Marxism, she sacrificed herself when there were no pink men at the end of the pier. She thinks that Cultural Marxism will work to give her maximum advantage, but she forgot that it pits the haves against the have-nots—the oppressed against the oppressors. And in that calculus, she represents the oppressor. What a fool and she will be clobbered by the boomerang. The Brits will not stomach the game she is playing.

I am an ardent admirer of the Queen, but not a big fan of monarchies. I’m an American.

I used to be a lot more critical of monarchies...until I lived under our government for a period of 50 years. Now I’m having to re-think things.

You know she has a bachelor’s degree in International Relations? That is forgotten in a lot of these discussions. Unless Northwestern University is a diploma mill, European politics (that includes the BRF) are covered at some point. She should have had a vague idea of who he was.

I know 2 Inter-racial couples. She’s black/he’s white & he’s black/she’s white. When pregnant both couples 1st question was what skin color would be most prominent. And they remain some of the most beautiful children I’ve seen !

Some wag famously said that we have the worst possible form of Government - except for all the others.

Just from my knowledge of genealogy that’s a bit far back. Henry VIII would be about 12 generations back not 25. Also the connection is more direct but through Henry VIII’s sister Margaret who was married to a Stuart. The Electress of Hanover was descended from James Stuart. There are also connections through Diana’s family the Spencers.

"I disagree with you that Harry is a wannabe prince. He is a real prince"

I completely reject the construct of Royalty..... All of them should be stripped of their titles, homes and wealth then turned out on the street to earn a living like everyone else.....

Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.. the family here is traced from Albert who was Victoria’s husband. Victoria’s mother was also of that household. Victoria’s father was of the house of Hanover. The family’s name was changed because of WWI to Windsor. The Hohenzollern were a Prussian dynasty.

No. Harry will divorce Megan. He is a foreigner in a strange land (Hollywood). He will miss his family & his country. He has nothing productive he can do in America. He has no real friends here. He will soon realize Megan married him for his titles, & once they lose them (soon) she wont have any more use for him. Celebrity marriages rarely last long.

I don’t see where their unified income brings in the $7 million a year they’d need to survive at their level.

I believe that Prince Charles is helping out with expenses. How long he will continue to do that is another question, especially after that interview.
