Fox News host Tucker Carlson calls out Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over not speaking out on the Russia-Ukraine war on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight.' #FoxNews #tucker
Interesting clip of AOC Town Hall with two of her progressive constituents calling her out for backing and funding a possible nuclear war.
She responds to it all by telling them they are rude...:-)
Harry S. Truman said it best:
“If you can stand the heat, then stay out of the D@#^ kitchen!”
She is an immature child sitting at the adult table.
Shame on you, New York, for foisting this bartender on America.
I saw this on Tucker Carlson last night
9 Whoever has ears, let them hear.”
10 The disciples came to him and asked, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”
11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.
12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.
13 This is why I speak to them in parables: “Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.
14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah: “ ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.’
16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.
She’s the best ding dong money can buy
I hate AOC but Tucker truly jumped the shark with this last night.
The premise was that an even bigger commie than AOC screamed at her at a meeting that she’s causing WW3 and we’ll all die in a nuclear war because she voted for aid to Ukraine.
This was followed by attacking Zelensky for wearing a t shirt while asking for money from a bunker.
No mention of Russia losing the war, no mention that there is a war which is why they ask for money.
Tucker Carlson has become a butt hurt anti Vietnam war 60’s protestor. He’s going to help Russia win that war no matter what it takes, and he’s furious that he’s been embarrassed so far.
This follows the embarrassing show devoted to the “brilliant” Ye West, who obviously has mental problems.
Tucker’s premise was that everyone in Washington wants WW3 (they obviously don’t) and that at the very least AOC, as a progressive commie, should oppose the war.
So Tucker is angry that the comunists should be opposing the war. That sure makes him a dusappointed leftist.
Maybe everybody just supports aid to Ukraine.
Still waiting for Carlson to tell us something we don’t already know...
Not holding my breath while I wait, BTW.
Tucker, as always was brilliant and a joy to watch as he unraveled Ms. Tic Toc.
What sane person wants billions going to Ukraine when the funds are so badly needed here?
Stooging pays WELL! Went into office dead broke and now a millionaire and has complained but nothing about how except America is SO UNFAIR.
You are totally misreading Tucker Carlson, who has become a recurring burr under the saddle for those who are unwilling to seek the greater reality. Sure, he is a scion of the Eastern Establishment, and at times a pretentious and bumptious buffoon, by then, nobody’s perfect. He strikes out across territory that many other opinion influencers seem to fear to tread.
Calling out AOC for her apparent taste for nuclear war and preferences for the victory of insignificant Ukraine over the massed armies of the Russian Federation, as Tucker has, reveals how totally incompatible these two position are. The use of atomic weapons against Imperial Japan was a knockout punch to mercifully as possible draw to a conclusion a war that had grown increasingly senseless, but use of nuclear weaponry is not and never should be used as a first resort. Makes a great threatening gesture, but actual deployment only invites massive retaliation if the opposing warring faction is not knocked out immediately. Mutually Assured Destruction was a policy of desperation, but with even semi-rational people, it is an active deterrent.
Tucker is right, only neocons support the war. The US has zero interests in Ukraine and thusly should have no business with the war. Everything thing the US does in regards to Ukraine is counter to our interests. It spends money we do not have. That deepens inflation and further wrecks the economy. It depletes our military weapon stockpiles. That makes us weak. Biden is draining the SPR because we have prolonged the war. That makes us weak. It adverts our attention from the invasion on our southern border and from China and other real adversaries.
Only morons would follow the foreign policy and military misadventures of a demented, low-IQ’d, corrupt piece of excrement. Biden eff’s up everything he touches. He has never been right about any major issue. We should be doing the exact opposite of everything he wants.
If you support the war, then you support Biden. Only mental midgets do that.
Don’t forget, she might be our next president after jojo steps down and heels up harris appoints her VP., then reigns to become UN head. (sarc?)
I pretty much agree with your position. I’ve noticed that this Ukrainian thing has actually become a war of words on the internet between three groups: leftists, neocons, and classic liberals, also known today as conservatives. When I go to liberal sites all the leftists are supporting us giving more aid to Ukraine and helping them as the pure as the driven snow good guys against the evil russians. And when I go to conservative side like free republic, the neocons take the same position.
I’m a classic liberal. I can tell you with confidence that Ukraine is not a part of nato. That means that’s the sort of battle that Trump was trying to get us out of when he was president. We should not be empire building around the world, be it ukraine, afghanistan, or vietnam.
All the Ukrainian flags of people’s houses have bothered me about this thing since day one. Most people don’t understand the history of the area and seem to be just parroting what they see on their local news. Since I got rid of television in 1997 I’m immune to it simply because I don’t see it. But I do see both sides on the internet. To say I’m not a fan of what Putin is doing would be an understatement. But I don’t think we should be getting involved in Ukraine at all.
The problem is, if we had someone like Trump and power, The invasion probably never would have happened. And if it did, Trump would be a little bit better negotiator than Biden and his administration, who are actually worse than a box of rocks. They’re an embarrassment and everybody knows it. So Putin does what he wants to even if it may not be in his country’s best interest because we’re not there to really, with any seriousness, tell him he shouldn’t.
And this extends to European leadership as well. When you have week leaders, it’s only natural for bad players to exploit that for as long as they can get away with it. They know their time is short. There’s an uprising against these poor leaders and the wulkness they seem to push. The question is, will there be anything left to save by the time we finally push those people out through the ballot boxes of the world?
The fellow yelling at AOC was right about one thing. We are in very perilous times. When one looks at the alliances being made between Russia and China as I type this regarding monetary policy, we could see very serious down economic consequences. And if things get bad for them, we could see those consequences of a type that causes a massive loss of life.
The Western world is financially collapsing as I type this. And that actually includes China who is the equivalent of the Costco that everybody shops at. What this means is that countries will become desperate. And desperate times call for desperate actions.
And let us be frank here. The last thing we want right now is a desperate russia.
Although I think Tucker can be a little too expressive at times, he is not wrong about the premise of his commentary. AOC is a phony and a hypocrite - like most current Democrats. She is being called out by her constituents for being a phony.
Regarding the Ukraine, I grew up around a lot of Ukrainians and have Ukrainian friends. I can’t stand Putin. That said, this is a complicated war between two nations with lots of corruption in each. IMHO we somewhat solicited this war, and the time to have been involved was very early on before there was an invasion. Further, that involvement should have been behind the scenes - not the way it was done.
Tucker is also correct about the risk of nuclear escalation. We have very poor leadership.
I am leaning more that way everyday, but without the garbage leftists have added over the years.
“resigns” that is.
Agreed. We should question DC and hold them accountable. What ever happened to diplomacy? Now they say the only solution is Russia out of Ukraine. Too late for that. Another long war….
This will not end well.
Everyone clearly doesn’t support more money to Ukraine. Those in Washington pretend that is thr case by silencing decent. In modern Americs silencing decent is as American as Apple pie. Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, Lybia. Always for the war even those the majority have been against all of them.
