Tucker Carlson: Biden's Ukraine policies reveal how grotesque Washington's priorities are
FOX News.com ^ | February 5, 2022 | Tucker Carlson

Posted on 02/05/2022 12:23:24 PM PST by Kaslin

There aren’t a lot of amazing stories left in "The New York Times," they are all so predictable and self-righteous, but if you read the paper yesterday you did see one. "U.S. Exposes What It Says Is Russian Effort to Fabricate Pretext for Invasion." That was the headline. The story explained that at some point very soon, Vladimir Putin plans to stage a fake military attack on his own citizens. Putin will use actors to portray Ukrainian soldiers and Intel operatives committing atrocities against Russians. Then he’s going to videotape the whole thing and secretly release to the world. When people in the West see the clips of that on Facebook they will understand why Putin was justified in invading Ukraine. So it's a Psyop. Pretty diabolical.

You may be wondering how exactly how do we know that Vladimir Putin is actually planning to do something like this. Because in real life, the global intelligence world is a very complicated place. People in it rarely tell straightforward truths. So actually, if you are devising propaganda for the Ukrainian government, this might be exactly the kind of story you would place in "The New York Times," which of course is compliant. They're on your side. A story like this would give you a way to plausibly deny attacking Russian citizens.

Is that what happened here? We don’t know. We have no idea if "The New York Times" account is true or not. Then again, neither does "The New York Times." Right in a story, they conceded that the Biden officials "would not release any direct evidence of the Russian plan or specify how they learned of it," saying to do so would "compromise their sources and methods.

US corporate, deep-state controlled media is basically telling one lie or another ALL THE TIME.

The easiest way to get to the truth now, is to start with the OPPOSITE of what they say, and build your own opinion from there.

LOL! No doubt.

True or not, why would the CIA release this story to the public? To suggest that by releasing it they thwarted the dastardly plot, thereby averting the war they have been saying was inevitable and making Biden and the CIA the heroes of their own fairy tale?

But who really knows what goes through their twisted minds? Maybe the idea of a fake video was THEIR idea.

"The easiest way to get to the truth now, is ...."

As the rule of thumb states for a Jump Master in the military during inspection of personnel before a controlled exit from an aircraft while in flight, "Everything you touch you look at and everything you look at you touch." In other words, believe nothing until verified by two of the five senses.

If there’s one thing Putin would keep one hell of a tight lid on it’s a plan to a Germany/Poland 1939. That’s if he were stupid enough to want to do it at all…

Big difference between Putin and Hitler.

Hitler wrote a book where he laid out precisely what he was going to do, every bit of it.

And like January 6th, this narrative can only exist because of the tacit cooperation of the GOP.

Yep. See Tagline.

Tucker Carlson's got a lot of balls coming out saying anything about the man he and Fox News Corp were instrumental in propelling illegally into office, pretending otherwise.

They got away with it, are getting away with it, they'll do it for Biden again if it's a Trump Biden.

That's how deep their hatred for Trump and his supporters is.

Their lives haven't changed, why should they care about you?

There are no Washington priorities... it’s all a smoke & mirrors clown show used as a cover to milk-the-cow until it’s dead.

These charlatans are brazenly stealing/embezzling public money under cover of Infrastructure and COVID relief bills(blue-state pension and welfare bail-outs)... along with vaccine purchases and pork-belly waste on continued funding of COVID research, grants and bounty for fraudulent COVID in-patient/death certifications.

All this spending funnels to the agendas and pockets of their progressive/Marxist benefactors. Into their bank accounts that wash the kick-back and payoff money to the politicians, regulatory agency heads and false-flag provocateurs who work for the DNC, BLM, ANTIFA, Soros and for the end of America.

Please don’t lie. Fox’s evening lineup at the time was Carlson, Hannity, and Ingraham, none of whom supported Biden or “propelled him to the top.” Your whole argument is based on some other guy projecting Arizona for Biden on lection night.

Folks, a Russian "false-flag" operation is in the cards. It's part of the modus operandi. Never forget that Putin is a Chekist.

The problem for the Administration is that the Establishment and it's corrupt Enemedia accomplices have completely eroded their credibility with The Russia Hoax, the Ukrainian Impeachment Scam, the Jan. 6 fable, the Covid Con, etc.

It's fixin' to get real in Ukraine, and we have a weak player playing a very weak hand. MAGA Nation wants no part of another war led by our woke idiot leaders. And outside the Beltway, does anyone think that the wokesters and Suburban Karens are interested in Ukraine except for the chance to hate on skeptics like Tucker Carlson? Additionally, NATO is divided and Germany is selling out.

Rough times are ahead.

“Big difference between Putin and Hitler.

True.

I would also add that Hitler was an intelligent fanatic, while Putin ‘seems’ like an intelligent realist.

They have completely different psychological profiles, from my limited perspective. If Putin resembles any German leader, it would be Bismarck.

Just my two cents, not that it matters.

Putin’s foreign policy is pretty much that of Peter the Great, or any other Tsar.

Geez, update your references, the Chekists were so 1920s.

Putin worked for whomever was in charge, if it was the Czar, he would have worked for the Okhrana. It's not about ideology.
