Tucker Carlson turned up at the funeral of Hells Angels leader funeral Sonny Barger Saturday, and delivered an impassioned speech in honor of the fallen societal figure.
Carlson, 53, was one of more than 7,000 gathered at the Stockton 99 Speedway to pay respects to the fallen Ralph 'Sonny' Barger, who died in June following a brief battle with throat cancer, aged 83.

Ralph “Sonny” Barger was NOT the “Founder” of the Hells Angels. Anyone who was around back then knows that.
“Tucker doesn’t exactly blend in on that crowd does he.”
He saw them ride down the highway when he was young. They became his hero’s.
I know it won’t!
“He will draw the comparison between the Hells Angel founder and the democrats and Joe Biden.”
ROTFLMAO!
“Always stand tall, stay loyal... remain free, and always value honor.”
— Sonny Barger
Tucker marveled aloud, “Why aren’t we hearing that from the people who run the country? Why is it left to Sonny Barger to say...? The president of the United States should be saying that - every single morning as he salutes the flag - but only Sunny Barger is saying it.”
THAT’S why Tucker showed up, to EMPHASIZE the point that the so-called “leaders” of our country are so far down the crapper that it’s fallen to actual American outlaws to stand up and vocalize elemental American ideals.
When bona fide American outlaws hold the American ethos more dear in their hearts than elected Officials in Washington...? We have got one helluva a mammoth problem.
And if Tucker hadn’t gone there, and articulated that point in those terms, and drawn the media to focus on the it, because it was him there saying it, the entire media enterprise would have let slip quietly away utterly unnoticed.
THAT’S why Tucker went.
THAT’S why he spoke.
And I’m glad he did.
“THAT’S why Tucker showed up, to EMPHASIZE the point that the so-called “leaders” of our country are so far down the crapper that it’s fallen to actual American outlaws to stand up and vocalize elemental American ideals.”
Nope. He showed up to relive his childhood fantasy! He has been a HA fanboy for decades.
So, your point is that in order for Tucker, a multi-millionaire TV personality with a huge viewership, to make a point about freedom and honor he had to go to the funeral and pay homage to a convicted violent felon? Is that what you’re saying?
Nope. No dice.
Go watch the video. Tucker says he decided to go when he heard what Barger had written. He clearly says THAT was the deciding factor for him; NOT his nostalgic memories of the HAMC during his childhood in CA.
Tucker has weird friends, at one point before the presidential election he said he would not pile on Hunter Biden anymore. Later it came out Tucker had asked Hunter Biden to write a recommendation for his son.
“When bona fide American outlaws hold the American ethos more dear in their hearts than elected Officials in Washington...? “
hmmm. murder, drug trafficking, human slave trafficking ...
ROTFLMAO!
The old Hell’s Angels was not a simple men’s cycle club.
It was a raping and pillaging enterprise. Stolen cars,
hacked parts, chop shops...
Folks don’t seem to realize that, and it bothers me to see
them act as if it was just a good times men’s group.
I can’t speak to what the group really is into these days.
I wouldn’t go near it.
Odds are these ignorant trolls refused or neglected to watch the address. I thought it was pretty good.
With you, one gets strange new words.
Contrary to what the, leftmedia, and those who didn’t bother to read the article or watch the video are saying, Tucker didn’t show up to glorify Barger’s deeds.
He showed up for ONE REASON: to honer the values Barger expressed — BECAUSE THEY ARE SOLID AMERICAN VALUES NO MATTER WHO IS EXPRESSING THEM!
He showed up to point out that, in expressing those values as what he held most dear, Sonny Barger — American outlaw — was more solidly American than just about anybody in elected Office in Washington DC.
His point is thundering: why is it that only people the leftmedia thinks we should dislike are espousing elemental American principles? Why is anybody who says anything that promotes the bedrock American ethos put on the leftmedia’s s@#$ list? How far have we fallen that it’s our most notorious outlaws who have it right about America, and the entire field of our top elected officials are silent?
THAT’S A POINT WORTH MAKING!
And if it takes a middle-aged controversial right-ish political commentator putting his personal reputation at-risk going to an outlaw’s memorial to get nationwide airtime focused on that point...?
That’s not foolish; it’s strategic, and worth doing.
Oh GFY!
It COULD NOT BE more clear what Tucker was promoting; you’re just being a belligerent a-hole about it.
“Always stand tall, stay loyal... remain free, and always value honor.”
— Sonny Barger
You know the FB of PS undercovers there were taking notes and inventing crimesfor the next round of perjury before a federal judge followed by a plant of a GPS chip on Tuck’s car and the rollout of SWAT. Gotta keep them loyal bureaucrats just following orders,
Thank you.
BTW, “equivocalness” is a word - I looked it up.
Margaret Thatcher’s ‘wobbly” would work but I’m not sure “wobbliness” is a word.
