Fox News host Tucker Carlson unknowingly fell into the crosshairs of the Kathy Griffin debacle on Friday when she raised the issue of why she and her mom aren’t speaking. CNN gave Griffin the axe this week after she posed with a bloody, decapitated President Trump.

“Fox News ain’t got nothing on me,” Griffin said. “My mother is not speaking to me because she’s in love with Tucker Carlson.”

Carlson was dumfounded by Griffin’s mom possibly being enamored of him.

“Wow. I have too many mixed feelings,” Carlson told The Mirror when pressed for comment.

Maggie Griffin, a steady element of her daughter’s riffs, is a 96-year-old widow who lives in West Hollywood. Griffin often portrays her as a drunk who has a serious affinity for boxed wine. Maggie denied having a problem with alcohol and says she really only drinks two glasses of wine each day.

Nah, I totally support the coal miners. The reference was to that old saying "a canary in the coal mines", meaning to sacrifice an "unimportant" person or their reputation by sending them into a controversial situation before allowing the "important" people to comment or act on it.

It references the technique coal miners used in the days before high tech to see if a mine was safe for them to work in. They would toss a small bird down as far as they could. If it didn't fly back out, they knew the bird had been asphixiated by noxious fumes underground.
