Interesting listen, nothing he said was any sort of revelation to my ears but maybe it will do some of the spoon fed morons good to hear some history.

First few minutes I thought man this is a good listen.

Then after a while you remember what kinda guy he is, and the “interview” was a bit strange. I don’t think Tucker did himself many favors with his research on this.

I will say the dichotomy of leadership’s cognitive ability is mindblowing….this guy didn’t name one dead guy as being alive or the leader of the wrong country. Craziness.

Not done with it and had to watch it in sections today.

I agree, Tucker wasn't totally prepared as I've seen him in the past. He didn't have much in the way of a retort to Putin whom (it pains me to say this) is the Premier World's Leader. That's sad.

You must have a very low standards if you believe Putin is the "Premier World's Leader.
But, he's Trump's homey so I get where you are coming from..

Yeah Trump helped their economy soooo much [slow eyeroll]

So if the POTUS doesn’t fund a wag the dog war which has nothing to do with the narrative, he’s in league with the guy your team now claims is a bad guy 10 years removed from laughing at an opposition opponent who said he was a danger.

Only saw a few minutes of it.

Looked like TC- who is always has been forward, aggressive and challenging (with a big bias).
Putin made him heal and then lay down by his dish. Tucker was his bicth.

He (Putin) does have gravitas. Being a stone cold, KGB killer leads with a steel fist. Easy to be the tough guy when you have every other oligarch and Russian politician by the balls. Or in a gulag.

I watched the entire thing. Not for nuthin'... Putin is doing what we would do were the roles reversed.

Our illustrious CIA and FBI have meddled in many countries' affairs over the years and most of them just roll over and do our bidding, or vote how we tell them to in the UN, and accept our gratitude in the form of taxpayer dollars.

He's just not putting up with it.

I’m not sure if those countries even do our bidding. They take are money, pocket some of it, and go through the motions until we stop looking. Then they eff us.

If you’re unwilling to challenge your ideas then they’re weak.

At least that’s how I was raised.

Excellent. More people should live that.

My favorite newscast I feel is as close to down the middle as I can find.
Of the three podcasts I regularly listen to, one is right of center, another feels left of center, and another is a life long lefty, who is moving right over the last year.

Helps me take in other perspectives without listening to the tedious three talking points Dems and Republicans belch out. Rush Limbaugh created a whole program and series of books telling people how to think. There is reason his listeners were called Dittoheads. They stopped thinking and just puked out his thoughts. I know so because I was one of those easily led idiots for about four years.

Asking questions makes you a hell of a lot further than belching out platitudes from someone else.

Open your eyes, Frank.

as for Tucker, privately he said (like others at fair and balanced Fox) that he knew Trump was wrong and an idiot.
In public/on the air, he was a hired promo company.
Which side of the story is ever really his?
Yuh. I should have faith in anything that liar tells us.

Newscasts, if that's what anyone wants to call them, have become nothing but paid promotions. The networks slant towards the political bend of the people in charge. If one wants to stay employed they become part of the echo chamber. Free thinkers needn't apply.

I heard Hemp is a potential raw material for a sustainable world.
It's also better than eating bugs.

Boris Johnson Has Meltdown After Being Exposed For Sabotaging Ukraine Peace Deal



Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson had a mini-meltdown after being exposed during the Tucker Carlson-Vladimir Putin interview for sabotaging the Ukrainian peace deal.

During the interview, Putin confirmed reporting that first emerged last year about Johnson’s role in prolonging the war.

David Arahamiya, the leader of Ukraine’s ruling party, revealed that Johnson had scuppered a peace deal that would have put an end to hostilities just a few months after the Russian invasion.

http://tinyurl.com/3y6y349k

Putin confirmed this when he stated, “He had fixed his signature to some of the provisions, not to all of it. He put his signature and then he himself said, we were ready to sign it, and the war would have been over long ago. 18 months ago. However, Prime Minister Johnson came, talk to us out of it and we missed that chance. Well, you missed it. You made a mistake.”

Johnson was clearly rattled by the revelation.

http://tinyurl.com/t4muun52

He responded with a short video intended to go viral on social media promoting his lengthier response in a Daily Mail article.

“Around the world people are watching that ludicrous interview with Vladimir Putin conducted by Tucker Carlson,” raged Boris.

“And we must not fall for this tissue of lies, above all the notion that Putin is somehow fated to succeed in Ukraine, on the contrary, he is doomed to fail,” he added.

Johnson failed to mention the fact that hundreds of thousands of lives would have been saved if he hadn’t intervened to scupper the peace deal.

Tory MP Nadine Dorries also revealed in her book that Johnson sabotaged the peace deal.

Apparently, no reporters are curious enough to challenge Johnson on the revelation.

Huh.

Weird.

Receipts are being held. Boris describes Tucker's interview as "ludicrous". No, not really...especially coming from Boris. Covid Party Boris...shutdown the nuke reactors Boris...Not paying your fair share into NATO Boris...sure. If you believe that...you're still wearing a mask expecting some benefit.

Compare Biden to ANY World leader in cognitive abilities….I trust Mexican tap water more and he’s a few points shy of a ham sandwich.

Where are his weekly press briefings?

When is KJP not deflecting to an agency when asked a pointed question.

That is a strongpoint for most in here. They consume a huge variety of news and opinions from all parts of the political spectrum then synthesize it in to their own coherent thoughts and opinion. That’s why this place has the reputation for being such a renowned think tank
