House Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave Russian propagandist Tucker Carlson over 41,000 hours of video from the January 6, 2001 insurrection/coup attempt, and now all hell is breaking loose.
Carlson made outrageous claims and lies on his popular Fox News Channel show. Ironically, Fox News is being sued for $1.6 billion by Dominion Voting Systems for its lies and defamation of the company.
Here are some of Tucker the bullshit slinger‘s greatest hits:
“Was January 6 really an insurrection? Or was it a brutal police action against hopelessly lost tourists walking through the Capitol Building? It’s hard to say. If you scour all the videos like I did, you can certainly make the case the police were not hospitable to the Capitol visitors. You can see cops beating the poor tourists. Is that any way to increase Washington tourism? Probably not.”
“Think about all the people arrested for alleged crimes. A thousand peaceful folks. Why were they busted? For wandering around the Capitol Building? Isn’t it supposed to be ‘The People’s House?’ Since when is that a crime to be lost and confused? It’s crazy what happened to these poor souls. Maybe if the cops had been more helpful, they could have given them directions instead of bashing their skulls.”
“The Democrats love saying January 6 was dangerous to democracy. But was it really? Or was it a group of upset patriots trying to right the wrong of a stolen election won fair and square by President Donald J. Trump? He is the one man in the country working night and day to Make America Great Again. It says so on Trump hats, so you know it’s true. Hats don’t lie. And can anyone possibly dispute God sent Trump to save us? Praise be Donald J. Trump.”
“We can lay all the blame for the violence on January 6 at the feet of Mike Pence. He could have saved Trump’s second term if he had been strong instead of a pathetic weakling. But for some reason, the wimp folded like a tent and gave the government to Biden and the evil baby blood-drinking liberals. Pence’s weakness is a disgrace; yet amazingly, he’s still a free man today. Whatever happened to the rule of law and justice in America?”
Carlson received a congratulatory phone call from disgraced twice-impeached ex-President Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin for his excellent reporting.
“I love Tucker,” Putin told The Lint Screen. “He is a true patriot.”
