Your Saturday Cartoon:
You think that headline is too harsh? Really? Yeah, I know we have freedom of the press (of a sort) here, but hey, to quote Tucker Tiki-Torch himself, "I'm just asking the question." When it comes to freedom of the press, Tucker Carlson is much more than just a serial abuser. He is a traitor to this country and he flaunts it. Can't you just see the team of Carlson and Putin gently elbowing each other and chuckling? I'm just asking the question.
Now, ask yourself this simple question: Who has done more damage to this country and your family's security, Tucker Carlson or Julius and Ethel Rosenberg?
For those of you who came along after history was being taught in schools, you can look up Julius and Ethel on the internet. It's a layered story but the short of it is that they were arrested, tried, convicted, and executed by electric chair for conspiring to pass atomic secrets to Russia. Espionage. The case is somewhat controversial, at least the Ethel half is.
That execution was on June 19, 1953. We treated traitors differently then. Now we give them primetime TV propaganda shows in the service of our adversaries on the world stage. Even Tokyo Rose got a jail term but that was also then, not now. The target subject of the above cartoon even has segments of his shows being broadcast in Russia right on Russian State Television. Can a Russian Medal Of Service for Carlson be on the horizon?
There doesn't seem to be much doubt about the Rosenbergs being guilty but Russia was on the way to building their own bomb anyway. You think not? You think their science was way behind ours? Who beat us into space? Carlson's nightly crimes in the service of the authoritarians he idolizes for cash and in spirit leave no doubt about his guilt at all. We have it on film. We can watch it live as it happens. There he is, broadcasting to the nation nightly. He grows more smug about it by the night, a smug brat of privilege who has always gotten his way, a spoiled, overgrown fratboy thumbing his nose at the country that gives him the right to do so. His smirk and his evil chuckling have endeared him to Putin and others like him. Just a few days ago, he gave Trump an extensive on air interview just as his partner in treason Sean Hannity did a few weeks ago. Call it the FOX "News" Me Too Movement. Arrest them all. Are they not clear and present dangers? I'm just asking the question.
bitch all you want. it only serves to make two points:
1) these guys all exist because they attract vast audiences and generate big ad money for their networks.
2) these guys all exist because your democraps collaborated with reagan to repudiate both "equal time" and "fairness" doctrines; your democraps have refused to address that royal pooch screwing ever since; your democraps both collaborated and, at times, led the deregulation of media and their corporate consolidations (which, by reading of still-on-the-books antitrust lege is illegal, but it's only illegal if someone enforces those laws).
interesting how you can recognize what's clearly evil, bitch about it, but fail to mention that it's all perfectly legal... but then refuse to talk about…
Tucker Carlson is at best a liar and a fascist. But he is much worse than that. He stokes the culture war, there is blood on his hands because he is pro gun and promotes radical NRA positions. He promotes the Russians and their evil war. He is a racist on his show. He should be banned from TV and radio by the FCC!
