WATCH: Fox News host Tucker Carlson calls Dr. Fauci a "total fraud"
The Hill ^ | August 1 | OE CONCHA

Posted on 08/01/2020 10:30:32 AM PDT by RandFan

Tucker Carlson slammed Anthony Fauci as a "total fraud" after the top infectious disease expert's Friday testimony on Capitol Hill, with the Fox News host asserting that Fauci "won't opine on as long as it doesn't offend the popular and fashionable left."

During a segment on his prime-time show Friday night, Carlson played a heated exchange between Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Fauci on Capitol Hill earlier in the day, with the two figures sparring over the possible spread of COVID-19 at mass protests.

Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, noted there is risk when crowds of people gather, prompting Jordan to press for a direct answer on protests specifically.

Fauci is what is known in the civil service as a “survivor.” When administrations change, the survivor will immediately begin to kiss arse. He will adjust his rhetoric to match the biases of his new boss.

Tucker is correct. Fauci proved his allegiance in the recent congressional hearings.

“Under no circumstances can you note that Dr. Fauci is in fact very often a hypocritical buffoon who refuses to admit what he clearly doesn’t know,” Carlson said Monday.

“If you say that out loud, they will cancel you. Fauci is too useful to the Biden campaign. So until November, Fauci’s word must be law even when it doesn’t make sense.”


Tucker is the best.

He is indeed! You don’t deal with a virus by destroying your economy.

He;s not a fraud due to his medical mistakes (of which there are many). He is a fraud because he demands cancellation of rallies and church services and will not say the same for this sweating stinging communist riots. Watch the show next time before you run your mouth.

Told my wife last night that Tucker is the ONLY ONE on these shows doing real news.

Tucker isn't really "doing" real news, in the sense that he's not the one gathering it and investigating it, but he IS the only one doing any real analysis of the news that matters. For the rest of the news media, it's like we're watching a bunch of cavemen trying to invent explanations for what the monolith is.

Fox News has been “Drudged” huh? The entire prime time Fox lineup is strongly pro Trump. Tucker, Hannity and Laura. Weekends have Greg Gutfield, Mark Levin, Judge Jeanine etc. Where is the Drudged at?


Read my post again, friend. I said Fox News Radio had been Drudged. If Tucker is removed from the air, Fox TV News will have been Drudged. Can I make it any clearer than that?

I am not defending FauXi in any way, shape, or form.

You do know what the phrase “playing doctor” means, don’t you?

We need to organize a big
Fire Fauci protest and then see if he accused is of spreading the virus.

You wrote “In business, practicality trumps political biases and preferences.”

If that is true, then why are all the sports leagues falling over each other to trumpet BLM? Why is the NCAA doing the same thing? Why are large corporations donating tens or hundreds of millions to BLM? Why does Kaepernick keep winning endorsements? Why do retail stores embrace queers and trannies?

I cannot see all this as “practicality trumping political biases.” It looks the other way around to me.

“James Murdoch just quit over ideological differences with the board of FOX News.”

I missed this little tidbit.

Tucker may have shot at too many sacred cows--I hope Fox doesn't find some pretext to get rid of his show. He was scathing about Obama's speech at the John Lewis funeral.

He had a very interesting segment last night with Alan Dershowitz, who is either innocent of any wrongdoing in the Jeff Epstein matter or a remarkably good liar--I think he is innocent.
