Russian Media Hypes Tucker Carlson Visit: 'Americans Are in Shock'
Newsweek ^ | 2/4/2024 | Thomas Kika

Posted on 02/04/2024 5:03:29 PM PST by marcusmaximus

Hosts on Russian state-run television recently hyped up the news that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson was spotted visiting Moscow.

-snip-

On Sunday, Julia Davis, founder of the Russian Media Monitor watchdog group, shared a clip to X from a recent broadcast of Solovyov Live in which the hosts discussed Carlson's appearance in Russia and mocked Americans in response to it.

"Americans are in shock. What is happening?" one of the hosts asked. "How did one of the best-known American journalists, Tucker Carlson, suddenly end up in Russia somehow and even went to the Bolshoi Theater to see the Spartacus ballet?"

The hosts went on to note that no official information is available as to what Carlson intends to do in Russia, while also mentioning his past claims about wanting to interview Putin, but being prevented from doing so by the U.S. government.

Ah, so you embraced an older guy. I had thought — based on his posting history — that he was much younger, like you.

Oh, well; some May-December relationships work, I guess. You’ll keep us all informed as to how yours works out, right?

do you still stand with Ukraine, or has the corruption of Winston Zelensky opened your eyes up to the truth? ? ?

Ah, Frick. Your memory is shot (tell me: was it the drugs?).

I’ll again indulge your forgetfulness: I stand will Ukraine fighting an existential war against an unwarranted invasion by a larger and stronger neighbor, in spite of who its president is or who our president is.

Frick, cut and paste that and print it out, and tape it to your monitor, or some other conspicuous place, so that you will remember it. Think of it as a modern string tied around your finger.

Tell me, Frick: Did you contract your memory loss from Frack? Share pipes, do you?

does your support include continued American arms and tax dollars going to Ukraine?

I have no problem with sending surplus armaments that were slated for retirement or export anyway (and, those are not gifts to Ukraine, because we get something in return; we always do). And, if Congress cuts off direct funds to Ukraine (of which there has been very little, as most of the aid and support have come in the form of non-monetary assets) I’d have no problem with that.

I see your support for Russia has not wavered. Do you consider Russians your homies, Frick? I seem to recall you posting to another FReeper a few weeks ago that you were literally standing outside the Wildberries warehouse at that very time, watching the fire. That warehouse is, of course, in St. Petersburg, Russia.

But, Frick; tell me: Where did you and Frack moon? Not Niagara Falls, I hope; that is so yesterday.

Please cite the constitutional authority that allows Biden to do this.

“Please cite the constitutional authority that allows Biden to do this.”

Congress is doing it, Frick. That’s why these bills go through Congress, and then to the White House; and if the executive vetoes it, it goes back to Congress for further action.

You see, Frick, if you were an American, or had studied even rudimentary civics, you’d have known that.

Now, Frick; answer the questions I posed to you in posts #101; 103; 105; et als.

Read the Constitution, Frick.

Now, answer my questions, as posed previously.

Nowhere in the constitution does it authorize congress or the president to financially support a foreign war, yet here you are, Zelenskyy’s #1 cheerleader. It’s evident you have no foreign policy experience. Now go get your pudding.

I know you want to go by Frack’s name (isn’t that cute? you kids). Thus, that is why you changed my comment in post #107 — addressed to YOU, Frick, by name — to imply it was addressed to Frack, in your reply #108.

You see, Frick, only a cheat or a liar would intentionally change a direct quote; which, of course, describes you, Frick, to a T.

Now, answer my questions as previously asked.

Ah, Frick. Read Articles I and II of the Constitution re: powers of Congress and of the executive.

Also, read up on the Lend-Lease Act of 1941 — passed by Congress and signed into law by FDR — and the subsequent 2022 Lend-Lease Act — passed by Congress and signed by Biden — that specifically addressed Ukraine.

Lend Lease was an Act of congress. This “Stuff Zelenskyy’s Pockets” is an extra-constitutional theft of the US taxpayers, a theft you fully support. What is wrong with you?

“Lend Lease was an Act of congress.”

Yes, Frick, it was. You asked for the authority, and I provided it to you.

You can’t rebut it, so you trot out a claim of an “extra-constitutional ‘Stuff Zelenskyy’s Pockets’” bill, or measure. That’s a strawman fallacy, Frick; or a false dilemma fallacy.

Talking points with cute-phrased titles may get your homies all atwitter, but you’ll have to provide supporting evidence (not talking points) to make your case. So, support your claim, Frick; with evidence (and, Frick, hearsay is not evidence, unless as a dying declaration or a statement against interest; are you claiming that?).

So, Frick, provide us with your evidence to support your claim of a “Stuff Zelenskyy’s Pockets” bill, or measure, or operation that the US government is undertaking. Specifically, identify just what exactly has “stuffed” Zelensky’s pockets, the source of that which is being stuffed into his pockets, and who specifically is doing the stuffing. I will have follow-up questions once you answer that.

Oh, Frick; don’t forget to answer my other questions, per previous posts on this thread.

We look forward to your response(s), Frick.

I forgot about that. Tucker is on Zelensky’s hit list. Gonzalo was too and now he is dead.

No, he interviewed Putin. Most real journalists are probably jealous.

As if being a Ukrainian asset is something to be proud of.
