You don’t even need to look that far. All the regular zeepers are lined up here at the ready to condemn Tucker. Throw a stone, you’ll hit one.

Heh, some truth coming about the Russians. The globohomos run from being exposed to the truth. Maybe he’ll confirm that BS you are constantly slinging around and the Russians really did lose 9,500 hundred tanks compare to the two Uke tanks with bad transmissions. Run, run far away. It’s not media master approved western disinfo. You can calm yourself by letting Karine Jean Pierre sooth you with admin lies tomorrow.

Exactly, why would Carlson interviewing Putin, or anyone, be objectionable.

Because he's doing it on Putin's behalf and probably on the Kremlin dime too...

Lest I be reported for abuse by one of them, I meant a ‘figurative stone.’ :0)

Why would you rather destroy the world via nuclear war, rather than let Putin “win”. ?

That’s like a demonic level of destruction and self-destruction.

The guy can do what he wants.

He is not a traitor. Is he being used? Probably.

I guess one would have to care about Tucker….and Putin.

You haven’t even seen what Tucker may have to say, and you are already making statements based upon what exactly? Your fears? Your perceptions? Your bias? All of the above?

Here is a bunch of attacks.

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4215178/posts

The REAL question is, why are people worked up into a lather over what will inevitably be a highly edited piece of media?

Someone young, the other day, asked me why so many people his age suddenly were losing their mind over the plight of the Palestinians, when prior to October 2023 they never said boo about them.

I explained that his peers crave attention, and by jumping on this bandwagon they’re hoping they will remain with the in-crowd (or have their organs harvested after the others).

It’s the same thing with people who’ve gone off the rails being pro-Putin or pro-Ukraine. They probably couldn’t find Ukraine (or Russia..) on a map before February 2022. But they were unable to conservative virtue-signal in a way that made them stand out.

But NOW…well…THIS scratched their attention-craving itch. They can’t be happy as “just” an individual or Trump supporters or traditional, normal patriotic American. Now they’re part of a CAUSE…

So, Tucker will interview Putin, the Kremlin will edit the crap out of that footage, and both sides will declare victory on 100+ post threads, and call each other Zeepers and Putinistas.

Meanwhile, Trump vs Biden goes unnoticed. Beams and splinters.

“ Because he’s doing it on Putin’s behalf…”

If this interview is in fact real and is ever released I think that will be obvious or not.

I’m not sure The Kremlin needs to pay Carlson.

He’s a multi-National corporation family scion.

I guess I missed the part where we declared war on Russia.

Funny, nobody lost their mind when Barbara Walters interviewed Putin.

She also interviewed Castro.

Are you still fantasizing about nuclear war with Russia?

Why shouldn’t Tucker Carlson interview Vladimir Putin?

No reason at all - Christiane Amanpour from CNN claimed she's been trying to get an interview with him since the Ukraine invasion began. None of the leftists screeching about Carlson would say a word if Amanpour got the interview.

Internet attacks are funny things.

On threads on FR, attacks are nothing more than people throwing electrons at each other. They mean nothing to the subjects.

I wonder how someone can be a conservative and respecter of the Constitution and think Tucker shouldn’t be free to interview whomever he wants. Now, if he was breaking some sort of laws to go to Russia that would be a concern. I don’t think he did.

I think Putin is a bad guy. I don’t think I would put much credence in anything the man says. He hasn’t said anything new in a couple of years—since this whole thing started.

I don’t understand the Putin love around FR. But, to each his own. If find his supporters around here to be boorish and clumsy. But again, who cares.

Tucker has to make a living. There sure seem to be a lot of people willing to throw money his way. Not me. It’s entertainment. Not news. Nothing Putin or Tucker says will change my mind on Ukraine.

But people losing their minds over this stuff…probably don’t have much mind to lose.

They want to prevent the American people from being exposed to a point of view not controlled by the DC/Brussels cabal.

For that reason alone, people should tune in to see what he has to say. And use their discernment to assign value, or not.
