Tuesday 30th of April 2024

2024 Presidential election I like Tucker a lot! I guess I would, I think I say I would. He's got great common sense. Donald Trump,  responding when asked if he would consider Tucker Carlson to be his running mate in 2024 © 2023 Kwiple.com

Dead-in-the-heads say Your response when you see children wearing masks as they play should be no different from your response to seeing someone beat a kid at Walmart. Call the police immediately. Contact child protective services. Keep calling until someone arrives. What you're looking at is abuse. It's child abuse. Tucker Carlson © 2021 Kwiple.com
Fox News And on November 21, Carlson texted [[name redacted]] that it was “shockingly reckless” to claim that Dominion rigged the election “[i]f there's no one inside the company willing to talk, or internal Dominion documents or copies of the software showing that they did it” and “as you know there isn't.” Dominnion Voting System v.

Fox News Carlson told Hannity: “Please get her [Jacqui Heinrich] fired … Seriously … What the fuck? I'm actually shocked … It needs to stop immediately, like tonight. It's measurably hurting the company. The stock price is down. Not a joke.” Dominnion Voting System v. Fox News Network [Heinrich had fact-checked a tweet by Trump alleging fraud by Dominion Voting Systems and reported that top election infrastructure officials  said “There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.” Hannity said "She has serious nerve doing this and if this gets picked up, viewers are going to be further disgusted.” Heinrich deleted the tweet the next day.] © 2023 Kwiple.com
Fox News Our job is not to provide news coverage. Not even close. Our job is to explain what things mean. Tucker Carlson, January 6, 2021,  to a Fox News colleague who expressed concern about the effects of lies about election fraud that Fox News hosts had repeatedly spread on air in the days leading up to January 6 © 2023 Kwiple.com
Selfie A couple of weeks ago, I was watching video of people fighting on the street in Washington. A group of Trump guys surrounded an Antifa kid and started pounding the living shit out of him. It was three against one, at least. Jumping a guy like that is dishonorable obviously. It’s not how white men fight. Yet suddenly I found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they’d hit him harder, kill him. I really wanted them to hurt the kid. I could taste it.

Selfie I hate him passionately. Tucker Carlson on Donald Trump, but only off the air to his colleagues and never on the air, where he remains Fox's most popular Trump sycophant © 2023 Kwiple.com

Trumpists say Every leader kills people, including my leader. Every leader kills people, some kill more than others. Leadership requires killing people, sorry, that's why I wouldn't want to be a leader. Leaderdship requires killing people. Tucker Carlson, February 12, 2024, when asked why, during his interview of Putin in Moscow, he didn't ask him hard questions about freedom of speech in Russia or Russia's treatment of Alexei Navalny, who died four days later in the “Polar Wolf” penal colony forty miles north of the Arctic Circle, where he was serving a decades-long sentence for criticizing Putin © 2024 Kwiple.com
Trumpists say In retrospect, it is clear the 2020 election was a grave betrayal of American democracy. Given the facts that have since emerged about that election, no honest person can deny it.

Trumpists say The rule of law appears to be suspended  tonight — not just for Trump, but for anyone who would consider voting for him. This is what it seems to be. It is a political purge. … [It's] probably not the best time to give up your AR-15.

Women [During confirmation hearings for Katanji Brown Jackson] the male Torquemadas were joined by a female inquisitor, Marsha Black- burn. The Tennessee Republican is all mag- nolia Southern charm — until she spits venom. “Can you provide a definition for the word woman?” Blackburn asked Judge Jackson, invoking the controversy over a transgender  swimmer from the University of Pennsylvania. Blackburn’s question inspired Tucker Carlson to later hold up a graphic of a woman's reproductive system, along with a silhouette of a woman so shapely that Roger Aisles would have approved.
