    WTF? FOX News Traitor Tucker Carlson Takes Russia's Side Against Democracy
    and America


    Anyone who has been paying attention to the Fox News Senior White
    Nationalist, Tucker Carlson, for any length of time, may have thought that
    he had already achieved peak assholiness. He recently produced a
    crocumentary asserting that the January 6th insurrection was "false flag" operation orchestrated by the FBI. He has argued against critical race
    theory, even while admitting that he doesn't know what he's talking about.
    And he has been a staunchly pro-COVID voice, spreading blatant lies about
    the virus and vaccines.

    However, Carlson is not one to rest on his loathsome laurels. And he
    proved it on Thursday night's episode of his Fox News Hour of Sour
    Demagoguery. Carlson conducted an interview with Republican Rep. Mike
    Turner wherein he twisted U.S. diplomacy and American principles entirely
    out of shape (video below). He questioned why the U.S. would stand with
    Ukraine against the threat of Russian aggression. Carlson asked Turner...

    "Why would we pick Ukraine's side and not Russia's side? It's a
    sincere question. If you're looking for the American perspective, why?
    Who's got the energy reserve? Who's the major player in world affairs?
    Who's the potential counterbalance against China, which is the actual
    threat? Why would we take Ukraine's side? Why wouldn't we have Russia's
    side. I'm totally confused."

    Whereupon, Turner had to remind Carlson that...

    "Ukraine is a democracy. Russia is an authoritarian regime that is
    seeking to impose its will upon a validly elected democracy in Ukraine.
    And we're on the side of democracy. [...] We're for democracy. We're for liberty. We are not for authoritarian regimes coming in and changing
    borders by tanks. Russia isn't showing up on the border with ballot boxes. They're showing up on the border with tanks. And that's why we need to
    make certain that we're on the side of democracy."

    Carlson had a pitifully unconvincing response, saying that, "Yeah, I guess
    I'm for democracy in other countries. I guess." Then he stuck with his
    original answer anyway. It's good to know that Carlson's lukewarm
    appreciation for democracy doesn't interfere with his anti-Americanism. Especially coming from someone who recently embraced the tyrannical
    dictator of Hungary, Vikto Orban. And Carlson has also been a avid
    believer in Donald Trump's "Big Lie" that the 2020 presidential election
    was "rigged" and "stolen" from him. So he is clearly no fan of valid
    elections.

    So why would Carlson leap to Russia's defense in this debate? Well,
    remember that Russia eagerly helped the Trump campaign in 2016 and 2020. Ukraine, on the other hand, was threatened by Trump with the loss of
    military aid if they didn't try to dig up dirt on Joe Biden. Trump was impeached for that. But Ukraine declined to help Trump steal another
    election.

    So it isn't hard to see why Carlson is pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine. Never
    mind that Russia is a totalitarian foe and Ukraine is a democratic ally.
    Since Russia provided Trump with assistance, while Ukraine maintained
    their independence and integrity, that was all that Carlson needed to
    choose to back Russia and Trump's BFF Vladimir Putin. It's just further evidence of the treasonous acts of Carlson and his confederates at Fox
    News.
