Tucker Reveals Boris Johnson Demanded $1M For An Interview
Trending Politics ^ | February 20, 2024 | By Chris Powell

Posted on 02/20/2024 8:39:54 PM PST by Kazan

On Tuesday, Tucker Carlson made a striking claim about Boris Johnson, the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. According to Carlson, Johnson demanded a staggering $1 million for an interview.

This came to light during Carlson’s recount of events surrounding his attempt to secure an interview with the former UK Prime Minister. Carlson, who was in Moscow for a scheduled interview with Putin, conveyed his frustration over being publicly criticized by Johnson, who accused him of being a “tool of the Kremlin.”

In an effort to confront the accusations directly, Carlson sought an interview with Johnson, only to be met with a demand for $1 million in US dollars, gold, or Bitcoin. Carlson’s attempt to interview Johnson was motivated by a series of public denunciations from Johnson.

“So, he attacks me without explaining how I’m wrong, of course, or how he’s right,” Carlson explained. “This is, by the way, the guy who, single-handedly, at the request of the US government, stopped the peace deal in Ukraine a year and a half ago and is, I think, for that reason, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.”

Carlson contrasted Johnson’s demand with his recent interview with Vladimir Putin, noting that the Russian President did not ask for any payment, suggesting a stark difference in approach between the two political figures.

Further complicating the matter, Carlson accused Johnson of being involved in actions that contributed to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, including allegations of halting a potential peace deal at the behest of the US government.

No surprise. Warmongers and neocons know their propaganda won't hold up if confronted by a real journalist.

I’d like to know what the conversation was between Johnson and Zelensky back in April 2022, when Johnson made an unannounced visit to Kiev.

But I don’t have a million dollars to spare.

Johnson is an embarrassing slob of the English speaking world.

Ok so Trudeau is close behind but he’s Quebecois (or Cuban).

...a demand for $1 million in US dollars, gold, or Bitcoin.

Notice how the globalist jerk won't even take his own country's currency.

Yeah. Nothing shady about that.
Well, since that cool 61 billion doesn't appear to be going into the laundromat, Johnson is reduced to extorting money for interviews.

Germany has 600 Leopard II tanks. Why did you only give 21 tanks to Ukraine to fight the Terror God? You're not taking the war very seriously, are you?

You could make a thread about German tanks and find a German to ask.
BERLIN — Germany will provide long-term military support and training to Ukraine "to fully restore" the country's territorial integrity under an agreement signed between the leaders of both nations on Friday.

The German Leotard II tanks that didn’t blow up real good on the Eastern Front in The Ukraine are now in Russia’s tank museum.

You're probably right. I don't think the Russians even bothered taking the Leopard IIs back to the Ural mountains for reverse engineering. What's the use?
