Tucker Carlson Debates @RepMariaSalazar Over Her Support For A No-Fly Zone In Ukraine, Her Push For Sending Weapons To Ukraine, And Her Amnesty Bill

Segment...

[Kazan]

She’s everything that is wrong with the Republican party.

[euram]

That’s exactly why Trump had so much trouble even when the GOP held the house and senate, too many like her. We have to work to get rid of her and the rest of the sellouts who are more interested in putting other countries’ interests ahead of our own.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Bush League Republicans are what is wrong with the Republican party.
They are the leadership and majority of GOP members of both houses of Congress.

People just will not stop voting for them.

No matter how many times they betray us.

[RandFan]

It’s strange listening to her. She does seem to put ‘America Last’...

In the end Tucker just laughs at her..

[DesertRhino]

Watch her. She is on the “intelligence” committee. Another idiot foreign mentality type who wants America to support her foreign causes, even if it destroys us.

[Williams]

She did well. Except for the amnesty part.

[Carriage Hill]

She’s a lowlife GOPe skank.

[stanne]

She’s not a republican. She has no clue what’s in the constitution she is sworn to defend and protect. She has not an idea what the word defense means in the term Department of Defense.

She is not working for Americans

Tucker is a master debater. That was interesting

Beyond that she makes me sick.

[stanne]

What?

[glimmerman70]

Yeah after Fox turned on Trump election night they have had a long road back. They are using tucker as much as they can to get watchers..

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

#FloridaWoman debates Tucker Carlson and presumably loses.

[cowboyusa]

Yeah, keep praying neo- cons, Globalist.

[MercyFlush]

I’m done with FOX News and will not forget or forgive their open hostility towards President Trump during and after the 2020 election steal.

[AndyJackson]

It’s because the GOP is all transactional. Putin is a baaaaad duude. More money to buy weapons in my district to send to the guys fighting for democracy and freedom and rule of law. Long term consequences - uh, that’s hypothetical. I have not spent one moment thinking about running for the Senate. How can you put politics above patriotism at a time like this. Southern border —— we have a process in place.

[AndyJackson]

She was horrible - Long term consequences? What long term consequences.

And there is a huge difference between arms carried by grunts and fighter aircraft and long range air defense missiles.

[whinecountry]

She is on the “intelligence” committee.

I admire Tucker Carlson greatly and believe that his is one of the few hours on television, even on Fox, that is worth our time. I believe he is rendered a very great service by insisting that our involvement in Ukraine be grounded in America's national interest.

However, I believe he has conflated our domestic southern border with the borders of Ukraine in a manner that borders on the demagogic. In other words, whether or not the United States defends our southern border has absolutely nothing to do in logic with supporting or failing to support the people of Ukraine.

That we enforce the border with Mexico does not mean that we should defend Ukraine's border. If we fail to enforce the border with Mexico does not mean that we should fail to support the people of Ukraine. We can do one and not the other, we can do both, or we can do neither without one compelling the other.

In conflating the Mexican border with Ukrainian border, Tucker Carlson sets up a false Manichaean choice.

I believe his obsession with avoiding these debilitating and self-destructive foreign entanglements is well-placed but overstated because each situation must be judged on its own facts and merits. There is no universal rule that makes sense regarding America's engagement apart from the rule Tucker has already formulated, what is America's national interest?

I think Tucker got it wrong when he flatly declared that America has no national interests in the preservation of Ukraine

The war in Iraq is revealed the following national interests of America:

1. The potential release of nuclear pollution across Europe and around the world resulting from bombing of nuclear plants.

2. Potential release of bio/chemical agents across Europe and around the world resulting from bombing of these facilities or release by Russians in a false flag operation. 3. The preservation of the principal of the integrity of nationstates free from aggression, incursion or invasion.

4. The preservation of supply of foodstuffs, especially wheat, sunflower oil.

5. Assuring the flow of petroleum products at reasonable price.

6. Avoiding inflation.

7. Avoiding nuclear war

8. Preserving America's power to deter aggression especially by China in Taiwan.

9. Preserving the viability of NATO as a deterrent force.

10. Preserving America's position as the world's reserve currency.

These interests vary depending on the state of play of the war. For example, before the invasion our interest in maintaining the flow of petroleum products was important but that changed radically after invasion. Many of the interests emerged only during the course of the war, for example, the need to shut down biological facilities in Ukraine.

Finally, our ability to deter Chinese ambitions against Taiwan only intensify in the course of the war in Ukraine. This perhaps is the most important of our national interests at stake in the Ukraine war but one that deserves more attention than it gets.

Tucker Carlson is still the best on the air, his voice needs to be heard, but I think he is myopic on this issue.

[Jane Long]

She’s giving Nasty PeLOUSY a run, for her money and idiot appearance.

Embarrassing.

I love how Tucker lets these fools ramble on and on.

Her arrogance was disgusting, as well.

[GOPJ]

Our military should be stationed on the border ... protecting OUR country.
