He’s nothing of the kind. This is just the Neocons trying to throw mud at him because he doesn’t support their latest wars.

Most of the major media appears Islamist controlled or Islamist influenced. Unfortunately the media sometimes deals with facts, but often deals with assumptions people are supposed to absorb.

How can we develop a new media that can counter the world wide Islamist controlled propaganda machine?

Certainly these two, BBC and CNN swallow the Al Jazerra and Anadolu pro Hamas propaganda. Both accused of providing fake info of sick children unrelated to food shortages.

“...Carlson increasingly adopted the rhetoric of isolationist, so-called “America First” nationalism...”

Stopped reading right there. Whoever wrote this article (Roberta) just outed themselves as a lickspittle neocon scumbag. Message to “Roberta”: the USA is NOT here to provide endless treasure and American lives for your freeloading globohomo existence.

At some point, Europeans (and yes even Israel) have to stop sucking on our tit. America is $37 trillion in debt, with no end in sight except bankruptcy.

As for the country known as Gutter (Qatar), they can do whatever they want with their filthy money, including bribing Tucker Carlson.

Israel will always stand strong, with or without American taxpayer dollars.

There seems to be a highly organized and well financed effort to smear and destroy Tucker.

Maybe some of the garbage Tucker broadcasts “destroys” him. He has no problem allowing guests to lie without any pushback, if the lies serve his worldview.

“Neocon” is becoming as overused as “Nazi” these days.

I left several bits of my body in Iraq thanks to the lies of neocons, and don’t like the use of the term being used to describe anyone who is not buying Qatarlson’s propaganda.

I think that was Mark Levin. Carlson denies it.

That’s right - and it would be one thing if he did that for all guests, but he doesn’t. He let’s some guests lie and lie and lie without a challenge, but other guests he won’t let even get started because he challenges every word out of their lips. If it was even-handed, I wouldn’t care what his biases were. But it’s not, so I do.

Exactly. The Zeepers have had it out for Carlson ever since the Putin interview (see the keyword ‘gayforcarlson’).

He thinks we should have fought on the side of Nazi Germany in WW II.

He's all yours.
