Carlson: We Have a Good Idea Who Wrote the Anonymous NYT Op-Ed

Fox News host Tucker Carlson started his show Wednesday night claiming he had a “pretty good idea who wrote” the controversial anonymous New York Times op-ed and added that representatives from his show had called the White House for comment.

Earlier in the day, The New York Times published an anonymous op-ed that was allegedly written by a “senior official in the Trump administration.”

“We think we’ve got a pretty good idea who wrote this piece. We’ve called the White House for comment on it tonight. But until we confirm the identity, of course, we’re not going to accuse anybody in public,” Carlson said.

Benjamin Wittes, Lawfare, likes the word “lodestar”. Lawfare hates Trump and loves the swamp.

Somebody suggest Jared Kushner's brother. I know nothing about his brother, didn't even know he had a brother.

I lean towards it being written by somebody at NYT.

I think there are never Trumpers on this thread. The NYT has zero credibility. Unnamed senior official? Give me a break.

I didn’t know about his brother either. Given the endless number of people who hate Trump, it could be anyone. I REALLY want Trump to go after the person using national security as the reason.

I hope the traitor - and I use that term deliberately - is now so hopped up, so worried and driven bat-shitte crazy by their nerves that they simply crack under the next pressure.

Now, the same applies of the NYTimes DID “fake” the story - writing AS IF they had a traitor in the White House deliberately to BEGIN more hate and internal dissent amongst Trump’s senior people.

If, indeed, there such a stupid person, I tend to agree with you, ALX.

When President Trump appointed Coats, I was very sad. If anybody would be against him in the Administration, it would be Coats. If it is not he, POTUS should get rid of him anyway. He is not a conservative.

Found the person - Brutus Iscariot.

Trump is long overdue to send a whole boatload of Fredos fishing.

Probably. Do you remember, though, all those contests on Rush, etc, where no one could predict whether a reading was the Unibomber or Al Gore? Lol.

Hopefully the whole cabal strung up on the fence by noon.

Y, Pence needs to be a Cheny pit bull, not sitting somewhere scheming and sitting out the fights.

[eyedigress]

Your blaming Pence?

You say you have not heard much from him. Would that be from your NY Times or NBC News? Tell us who should be telling you about VP Pence.

Stupid thing to say.

[snarkytart]

Are you saying he wrote it pretending to the a highly places administration official?

[R_Kangel]

..... LOL ..... This whole thing has "Ruse" written all over it ..... "Unidentified Author?" .... Really? That's the same as saying ..... "Unnamed Sources."

...... Somebody's trying to push some "Trigger" buttons to get a response from the Prez. For Pete's Sake ..... It's the New York Slimes!!!

..... Don't fall for it!!!

OMG. I haven’t seen “Andy”since my childhood-teenage years. I wasn’t expecting him on this thread, lol.

Yes, I admit that I never missed an episode of Y&R.
