Anonymity.
That tells me all I need to know.

Got something to say?
Man-up, sack-up, say it, own it.
Otherwise it's just another sufferer of "Hollow Scrotum Syndrome".

Same reaction I had. Have you ever heard of the Pentagon and senior defense officials going to a partisan political rag and railing against a pundit or a politician? This ought to tell you how bad the politicization of our institutions has become.

As for Tucker, Mark Dice has some thoughts on that topic.




Are you calling Politico a "partisan political rag"?

I've never heard of Mark Dice, but he seems nice.

I’ll take JRs vigilance over Tanqs apologetic eyes wide shut every day.
As long as government is run by man there will be errors and outright abuse. I can handle errors. I have no patience with abuse. These democrats abuse power right and left and their minions are OK with it. Trump saw abuse and made errors in judgment at the end. I’ll take the errors going forward. To hell with the abuse.

I have zero problem castigating wrong actions.

Democrats no doubt abuse power.

But do not try to smooth over 'trying to subvert the procedure for counting and certifying electors for President and trying to get himself *declared* President by violating the law and Constitution' as an 'error in judgement' at the same stroke.

How do you morph trying to get himself *declared* President by fiat (as opposed to a vote of state certified electors) as anything *but* abuse of power?


Well thank God those racist founders instituted a system that states holding individual power can only elect the POTUS. It’s all overblown, a President would never be able to overturn anything at all, even if there was proof of fraud or not.

Yeah, Trump was just going to meekly walk away if Pence refused to certify the election. That's his style, he knows when to give up and admit that he lost.

RE: Tucker Carlson out at Fox News
What was being revealed why he was fired is from the text messages that were dicovered in the court case that was brought against Fox News was that Tucker was saying vulgar and nasty things about others who works there including others that are on Prime Time. Tucker was caught when in those same texts, he did not think the elections were stolen from Trump either, and blamed some of the others on prime time to bring on the nutcases.

I think Trump's speech on 1/6 (done after Pence told him that he would not perform the actions the Eastman plan and its offshoots called for) is a good indication of whether Trump was going to meekly retreat from even that plan.

While I would like to hear from Tucker why he was taken off the air. it would be more interesting to hear from Rupert why ol' Rupert pulled the stop switch.

I doubt that will come to light soon.

Tucker may very well be under a still enforceable 'gag order' on the issue.

So Tiny Tucker's going to do a podcast. I'm thinking 3/4 of his audience doesn't know what a podcast is and most of the rest don't have the mental acumen to navigate there. ?

Tucker Carlson out at Fox News
Liberals really hate Fox News. They want the scalp badly, and they will get it.

What they don’t understand is that most conservatives under the age of 65 don’t watch Fox outside of Tucker anyway.

I'm thinking that there's language in his contract about early termination before the contract ends and he probably can't speak on what happened until the dust settles or he's listening to a lawyer.

I dunno.. I never made Tucker money.. If I did I wouldn't be here arguing with some of you yay-whos.

He is against Boise St to the Pac 12 and that was the final straw!

We dont even know if the contract has been terminated. It could easily be that Fox has taken him off the air, and continues to perform under the contract by paying him. That is, simply make him an expensive shelf item.

Exactly.. Fun to speculate though.

their ratings have tanked -70%+ in Tucker's old time slot, and taken a lot of adjacent time slots down as well. Folks who won't buy and drink queer beer won't buy and drink the BS Fox is spewing. They might as well try to grab the 3 or 4 people out there who actually beiolieve in this stupidity. I'm sure it's crossed their minds, but as of now, it's still "under devleopment". Paging Dr. Morton....

Screw FOX, they sabotaged election night by declaring for Biden instead of demanding clarification. Just another left wing media outlet scamming an audience not claimed by the others.

When the election shenanigans needed at least one voice which could be heard nation wide calling for investigations, they bailed and towed the same line as the other networks. I for one will never forget it.
