The Conservative TV host will interview figures and politicians with "alternative views to the mainstream" on the Russia 24 channel, according to reports.
I don’t like Tucker Carlson, but he’s doing the most American thing he can possibly do.
Name anything more American than giving zero fucks about the moral/ethical/destructive/antisocial implications of an action and TAKING THE FUCKING MONEY?
That is literally our most cherished core value in practice, prioritized higher than any other claimed values we pay lip service to. We literally make children go hungry and leave their public schools in underfunded ruin to cut our most zealous profiteer’s taxes and call it horseshit like “fostering self-reliance.”
I don’t like that about us, I don’t like us period. But it’s who we are, balls to bones. People either fucking each other over for moooaaaaaar money, or fantasizing about getting to be the ones doing it, when we aren’t shooting each other at least.
Our practiced values are wrong, and fully explain the hell we’ve made for ourselves. Tucker/Trump/Jones/McConnell etc people exist in prominence precisely because we celebrate/worship/emulate greed and the greedy instead of throwing rotten fruit at them when they show their faces. We literally beg life advice of our antisocial greed lords.
If this were all true we wouldn’t have Medicaid, Medicare, or social security. There wouldn’t be welfare, literally at all and Unions wouldn’t exist. Not to mention that slavery would never have been abolished.
There is a moral core that has run through this country since it’s inception that is currently being suppressed by the ultra wealthy in their race to gain more wealth and power through the use of social media platforms and most major media outlets. But there’s only so much their suppression can do before that moral core comes knocking at their doors and demands a reckoning.
If I was him, I’d be a little cautious about taking Russian money. It’s not about damaging your own reputation. (its already damaged anyway). Its about being subject to Putin and Russian oligarchs and getting unalived if failing to do certain things.

I recommend Tucker builds his Russian house without windows.
The best defenstration is a good offenestration
painfully honest; well put.
