"You can say you care about America, but if you’re sending $100 billion to foreign countries right now, you’re lying"
In a speech at The Daily Caller News Foundation Gala this week, Tucker Carlson warned that “abrupt change” is coming for Americans, and many can feel it, giving them pause to consider “the end times”.
“If something really dramatic in your country happens — like young people can’t, I don’t know, get married, you know, or buy houses or have any hope for a future that approaches, you know, the middle class upbringing they had — then you’ve got a huge problem and someone should be responding to that,” Carlson urged.
He added, “And if your economy is like on the brink of collapse, you know, if your country is literally bankrupt, I hope someone would say that.”
“When every person, 350 million Americans, everyone regardless of political affiliation can feel that something bad’s coming. Everybody knows that,” Carlson continued.
He added “I mean, if you’ve been to church once in the last year, have you thought about the end times recently? Yes, you have … because you can feel that abrupt change is coming and that’s very disconcerting.”
Carlson also noted that it’s never been more obvious to Americans that their government doesn’t care about them.
“Let’s start with pretending you care. But you know what doesn’t work? Saying we’re going to spend $100 billion in other countries,” he declared.
Carlson further urged, “I don’t care how virtuous the case those countries make is, and I don’t care how much I personally may agree or disagree with what those countries are doing — that is immaterial. The job, the moral duty of the people running a country is to look out for the people in that country, period.”
“At the very same moment that American society is more fractured — our social fabric is in tatters and we’ve let in millions upon millions of people who have no affinity for the United States, who are merely here for the economic benefits,” Carlson continued.
“Which by the way is not all bad — and I think a lot of them are good people, I’m not attacking them. I’m merely saying their addition does not make us a more cohesive country, it makes it a far less cohesive country,” Carlson added.
Watch:
Why did he even need the money? He made a ton from FoxNews. Or is there trouble in Carlson paradise?
Tucker Carlson raises $15M for new media company
Omeed Malik and Carlson have a long history, as the former banker once backed The Daily Caller, which Carlson co-founded in 2010. Malik also led a blank check company that acquired PublicSq, an "anti-woke" online marketplace that recently struck an ad deal with Carlson worth more than $1 million.

Gun grabber Lindsay Graham led a delegation of US Senators....5 Repubs and 5 Dems.... to Israel. Maryland Democrat Ben Cardin, Rhode Island Democratic Jack Reed, Alaska Republican Dan Sullivan, Richard Blumenthal, Democrat of Connecticut, Susan Collins (Maine Republican), Cory Booker (New Jersey Democrat), Katie Britt (Alabama Republican), Chris Coons, Delaware Senator, John Thune, SDakota Senator.
Israeli Leader Yair Lapid (center) asked American officials for more US
military aid while Senators pledge yet another bundle of US tax dollars to Israel.
In May 2022, Speaker Mike Johnson said, “We should not be sending tax
dollars abroad without sufficient oversight over where the money will go,
<><>when our own border is in chaos,
<><>American mothers are struggling to find baby formula,
<><>gas prices are at record highs,
<><>and American families are struggling to make ends meet.”
Backstory: Since 1973, Israel has received more than $120 billion US tax
dollars in MILITARY assistance alone, including “three special aid” packages.
<><>billions for signing the Israel-Egypt peace treaty
<><>billions for Israel’s withdrawal from the Sinai.
<><>billions for redeployment of Israeli forces
<><>rebuilding Israeli air bases in the Negev cost $5 billion.

The concerned Israeli lobby made sure Congress is required by law to ensure that U.S. military aid in the Middle East region doesn’t damage Israel’s military superiority over its neighbors. That requirement enjoys broad bipartisan support and has served as a benchmark for ensuring Israel receives robust U.S. support.
Biden keeps gaslighting Americans about the “need” for
American foreign aid tax dollars to Ukraine and Israel.
Here’s why they DONT need it:
About $113.1 billion in tax dollars were authorized in 2022 for Ukraine, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. Most of it–about $67.1 billion–was defense-related. The other $46 billion included:
<><>$26.9 billion for economic support;
<><>$7.9 billion for international disaster assistance;
<><>$6.6 billion in assistance for refugees;
<><>$1.5 billion for assistance for Europe, Eurasia and Central Asia;
<><>plus $3.1 billion for other non-defense spending.
US tax dollars helped Ukraine
<><>pay the salaries of 618,000 educators, 517,000 health workers, and 56,500 first responders
<><>helped sustain critical healthcare services,
<><>helped meet pension responsibilities for 9.8 million people,
<><>assisted 1.3 million internally displaced persons,
<><>provided housing assistance to 4.1 million people,
<><>provided social assistance to 240,000 low-income families
<><>helped subsidize 480,000 persons with disabilities,
<><>bought supplies for farmers,
<><>financed finding markets for small business.
Israel’s defense budget ALONE is about $25 billion per year.....nearly as large as the entire GDP of Gaza, according to the CIA World Factbook. So what passes for an economy in shambles in Gaza is less than 5% the size of Israels booming, technologically advanced, and robust $550 billion national economy.
Israel is an economic and military Goliath relative to the Gaza/Hamas terrorist Tom Thumbs. They do not need any virtue signaling from Biden but he is one of a slew of obeisant US politicians each trying to outdo the other in pledging fealty to a foreign govt.
What difference does that make? I guess virtue signallers, such as yourself, are birds of feather.
How will that mosque ever be removed from the Temple Mount without the Mohammadans becoming even more violent than they are now?
“more violent than they are now?”
Because they’re muslims. They cannot get any more violent than they are now. When you encounter a muslim it is always an often thinly veiled threat to your life. But back to your topic, when it happens it will be a miraculous thing. The leader who negotiated the deal will be celebrated globally as a miracle worker. It will be the accomplishment that enables him to sit in the tabernacle. He will literally think himself to be god. But it will be short lived because the muslims will ultimately get what they want.
This is nothing new. Seen this coming for many decades.
Those folks are like a stopped clock. Someday they may be right. Someday. I don’t think the sky is falling quite yet.
Why do you need so much money?
Very suspicious.

“virtue signallers, such as yourself, ”
Do you have an example of my virtue signaling?
Yeh Tucker abrupt change is coming but it aint the end times. 😏
Tucker is one of a kind. He is not a pompous axx like most in cable news. But he is candid, honest and conservative not interested in hearing himself pontifificate the pro war establishment line, like those
who take our wealth and give it to the hyper connected, and then send foreign refugees to USA.
Fox News shut him down because the corrupt treasonous deep state want truth muzzled unless it makes the political elites richer.
