‘Antifa Does Not Appear By Accident’: Tucker Says Rioting Is Meant To ‘Affect A Political Outcome’
Daily Caller ^ | Harold Hutchison

Posted on 01/28/2023 2:05:58 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Friday that Antifa “does not appear by accident” and intends to secure a political outcome in the wake of Memphis police releasing footage of a fatal altercation involving officers and a motorist.

“As we speak, Antifa is coordinating riots on both coasts and in between. That would include Seattle, Portland, Oregon, Los Angeles, California, as well as Atlanta, Georgia, New York City, suburban Washington, D.C., et cetera, et cetera. Barricades are going up right now in Times Square.

“Antifa is not a bunch of hooligans. These are not idle kids who appear out of nowhere because they are so mad about what they saw on cable news or read on Twitter. Antifa is a political instrument whose actions always are intended to affect a political outcome, period. Antifa does not appear by accident. Antifa appears with a purpose, to affect a political outcome, every single time,” Carlson said.

“If there’s one criticism of the rest of us watching this at home, is that we often miss that, because every channel is telling us something terrible happened, here’s a video of it, and sometimes that video is terrible,” Carlson added. “And then they imply that, because of this video, the emotions of the people watching just erupt into rage and violence. But that’s not what’s happening.”

Antifa has allegedly threatened or attacked conservative events at colleges and political rallies in the past, including a riot during Donald Trump’s 2017 inauguration as president.

“Antifa is being organized by whom? We don’t know. Why don’t we know? To do what? We can’t say right now,” Carlson said. “But we know for certain that, in cities across the country, right now, Antifa is mobilizing to commit violence. This is a political militia.”

The black community's catching on to the truth: Antifa is a white 'elite' organization that plays the black community for fools.

Also the democrat party? They're in on it. They need the black community to riot to keep race hatred on the stove and boiling.

It's why the black democrat mayor released the video tapes on a Friday night... the most likely time to stir the pot and get a riot moving.

It was the police dept. that released them, not at the order of the mayor. You actually think a mayor wants a riot to occur? But it never happened tho, did it?

I'm more inclined to think they were released so soon so as to counter any claim that the PD was covering up the crime.....and to prevent you from claiming they were trying to instigate a riot by refusing to release the tapes.

Just curious, you specifically identify the mayor as being black in your allegation that he called for the release of the tapes in order to stir up more racial discord.

Would it have made any difference in your comment if the mayor were white?

So we have a conundrum here don't we? He was damned by you since he did because of his race and you would have damned him if he didn't. And your comment specifically addresses his race as motivation. So why is that?
