Democrat Sen. Chuck Schumer is calling on the owner of Fox News to prevent network host Tucker Carlson from releasing any more footage from the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol that House Democrats hid from the public for two years. Carlson’s team reviewed more than 40,000 hours of video from that day and on Monday aired previously unseen footage that contradicts numerous falsehoods peddled by Democrat politicos and corporate media.
On Tuesday, Schumer melodramatically told reporters that Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch “has a special obligation” to bar Carlson from airing more unedited footage from Jan. 6 “because our democracy depends on it.”
The comments echo remarks Schumer gave during a temper tantrum on the Senate floor earlier in the day, in which he accused Carlson’s Monday night program of being “one of the most shameful hours … ever seen on cable television” and similarly called on Murdoch to prohibit the release of more Jan. 6 footage.

Schumer can shove democracy up his commie ass.
Well he gets away with threatening Supreme court justices so no surprise he would threaten free speech as well.
When scum like Schumer, Biden, et al say ‘democracy’, what is really meant is ‘deep state totalitarianism’.
“..Well he gets away with threatening Supreme court justices so no surprise he would threaten free speech as well....”
^THIS^
IF any of us had done what he did, we’d be rotting in a federal pen right now.....
He should have went to jail for that.....and this.
He admits that he controls the networks? That should be the story here!
Schumer seems to be the leader of destruction of the First Amendment. He has become dictatorial and a lowlife. Maybe he is on Soros’ or China’s payroll.
You forgot accuse the other of what you are undertaking...
He’s the reason we need a Civil war. Commie mfer.
This shows the quality of New York city voters.
Perhaps we should wall off the city states and let them go?
NYC, LA, San Fran, Portland, SEA, Chi town, Motown, ATL Huston, Boston, et al. Y’all get my drift?
If he’s got his panties in a knot it must be a good thing for real Americans
Some would say Paul Ryan influenced Fox is controlled opposition..
And Schumer has little to worry about if that’s the case..
How much has the controlled opposition shown to the public?
Democrats grossly exaggerated the J6 protests as an insurrection. It was part of the setup. The video proves it.
To protect the Republic, we need to stop all dumbass far left Dung beetles like Chucky from getting elected to Congress.
So when is the FBI raid on Tucker’s house?
Tucker didn’t release new video footage last night so I guess Schumer got what he wanted.
Funny thing... go to foxnews.com and try to find the stories that Tucker was broadcasting on Jan6th. Barely anything there. Almost like they’re burying the most prominent exclusive story they have had in years... on purpose.
Democracy = Communist Tyranny
Schumer is a damned liar. One could not be expected to pass such a scoundrel on the street without exuberantly expressing one’s feelings about various things.
