Tucker Carlson tells it like it is. Dems are afraid of the truth. Dems are afraid of anything honest and morally upright. They hate goodness and embrace everything that is morally sleazy and destructive. Dems are the termites of this world. They destroy anything good and decent.

Really? Forcing cross dressing men into the women's bathroom and calling the people of Carolina biggots for opposing is not authoritarian? That's just one example, these days you have to agree to 75 different genders, you're not allowed to challenge concepts of systematic racism. People are being told America is founded in evil and needs to be remade, I mean this wave of left wing totalitarianism is coming on like a freight train.

Ironically Trump is the furthest possible from authoritarian, he wants open markets for anyone to just keep living their lives as they see fit with minimal government interference

The public are right in being upset that blacks are getting shot by the police and their anger has boiled over, because it continues to happen, over and over again.

Tucker Carlson should be removed from the air and the sooner the better.
She is a coward for not defending the founding fathers

It's telling that you frame dissent, i.e., free speech, free exchange of ideas, as something dangerous. It's as if you put "dissent from the majority public opinion" on the same level as...I don't know, rioting?

I don't think it's "OK" but it is a predictable outcome in an atmosphere of chaos. If police are cut or not allowed to do their jobs, then people will fend for themselves, and it will be very messy. I'm honestly surprised it took this long for something like this to happen.

when i re-watched it, i found out what he said. So i heard it, and i listened to the tone of his voice. he was speaking in a kind of tone where he repeated what some people believed and he made an ironic comment.. when a speaker does that, they are not approving it necessarily, but throwing out an ironic what-if situation i.e.

"if the people in charge don't do anything and rioters take over, would you be surprised when some citizen decides to take matters into their own hands" so its an ironic statement that makes you think,.. it does not mean he is endorsing it.. and that's where people who get mad at Tucker don't understand this kind of ironic statements.

If Fox decides to fire Tucker they can kiss their ratings good bye. And BTW...what did Tucker say that was so wrong.

Most people seem to ignore the Cancel Culture including Trump’s use of the bully pulpit to boycott Goodyear, Harley Davidson, CNN, ATT, various polling companies and media celebrities who either have been critical of him or not supportive enough.

He is going to need millions.

I feel sorry for him. He was played by the right-wing propaganda and thought he was doing something noble, and then ended up taking two lives and probably destroying his own life. You hail him a hero today, and then forget all about him, but he'll be in prison for decades, or all his life, and being young and naive he will most certainly be abused by older inmates.
