Uh, except that Tucker is one of the few that speak against the narrative (big pharma). He isn't getting paid tens of millions to promote more shots. He isn't afraid to ask the questions that no one in the mainstream would be allowed to ask. Narcissist? Maybe. But only a fool would trust the mainstream over him. I mean, who was it that told you to take 5 or 6 shots? It wasn't Tucker.

Tucker literally is Big Pharma. And Fish sticks. He earned his celebrity and fortune the hard way--he was born into a hugely wealthy family made so by the efforts of the hard working Americans he cons.

Tell me, why was Tucker given the red carpet treatment in Moscow?

In answering, you should compare/contrast Tucker's treatment to what we'll call the "ill treatment" by Russia of, among others, Evan Gershkovich and Alsu Kurmasheva.

Obviously, it was because they respect his honesty. Putin can smell b.s. and dishonest reporters from a mile away and wouldn't waste his time on such people. Sadly, no one in the mainstream would qualify a real journalist. James O'Keefe could have been another choice.

It should be obvious from the transcript that Putin is very aware of what is really going on. He knows what is going on with the US dollar, he knows that Biden is not really running America, he knows that America and Russia are not really enemies. Tucker was fired from Fox because Fox is dishonest media controlled by the powers that be (big pharma, etc.). The amusing thing is, Tucker is even larger now on his own than when he was on Fox.

The video should be out soon.

Maybe it's not that you're wrong, but that you just need an editor. Because this was actually a very good, concise answer to the question I asked:
Putin can smell b.s. and dishonest reporters from a mile away
In any case, cool, you are taking Putin's side on illegally (and cruelly and inhumanely) imprisoning and memory-holing actual journalists.

Finally, I will continue to withhold reaction to the Tucker/Putin interview unless and until it's released.

I will absolutely say that, in the circumstances, it should be given zero credibility of any kind unless the tape is released in full and unedited form. Any editing, transcription or dubbing should be 100% capable of independent review.

Which reporter is honest? Reporters who told you to take 3, 4, 5, or more covid shots? Or the guy who didn't take any shots and did not tell anyone to take it? The latter was Tucker. I mean, we all know the shots were useless and potentially dangerous. They sure made a lot of money for some people though.

"Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statement he makes."

One of the truly weirdest things you guys do in the MAGAverse is identifying connections between things where none exist.

Like Tucker's stance on Covid shots, as somehow relating to what differentiates Putin's treatment of Tucker as compared with his treatment of other journalists.

Or that thing where you try to tell us that the Constitution doesn't apply to Trump because the Minneapolis police chief was black or something.

The constitution doesn't apply to Trump? Where did I say that? It applies to everyone. The thing is, he hasn't been charged with anything that goes against the constitution. I mean, I figured you would know this, but then again, you also thought Kyle Rittenhouse was going to prison. Everyone could see it was self defense and that he was innocent (if you knew the real laws that is).

You misread the Constitution, which requires no particular "charge" of "anything that goes against the constitution" (whatever that means) for the operation of 14A-3 vis a vis a former official. The Constitution says what it says, you may read it.

I also do not think I ever said that Rittenhouse would go to prison? But also, why are we bringing that up here? This is real life, not the MAGAverse. Rittenhouse has fuck-all to do with 14A-3, or with what differentiates Tucker from the journalists Putin has imprisoned.

The point was, I don't think you understand law very well, which is ironic. Your judgement and understanding of reality needs some attention. You took what, 4 shots?

In my estimation, that does not distinguish him from the rest of our media.
A $787M settlement with Dominion definitely puts Tucky head and shoulders above everyone not named Alex Jones.

So, in the Lobsterverse, anyone who took a vaccine has questionable judgement?

But, you can definitely trust Putin?
