Tucker Carlson has always, and I do mean always (for practical purposes) has one of the best reads of the direction of travel in national politics. He was one of the first to get on the America First wagon, and saw the potential Trump represented in national politics in 2015. They understood this because they had the ability to read the room with regard to the latent frustration people had with **both** Republicans and Democrats in that time period.

Tucker Carlson propagates Kremlin propaganda that has been used to shape American politics.

I point out that the only reason he has “the best reads of the direction of travel in national politics” is because the Kremlin has actively been shaping national politics using propagandist like Tucker.

The only thing Tucker is reading is Kremlin talking points and you are trying to claim otherwise.

You are trying to claim Tucker’s Kremlin propaganda to is not Kremlin propaganda but instead it is “the best reads of the direction of travel in national politics” and to convince others in this thread that we should not be put off by the Kremlins support for this candidate.

Iran is an ally of Russia and the infrastructure Irans been using to help Russia is being attacked. Cherry picking pros doesn’t mean there aren’t any cons

Insane how? Tucker is a Russian asset. He gave Putin a platform and parroted Kremlin talking points.

He has always been a support of other Russian assets like Trump.

It is insane to pretend he isn’t a Russian asset

Seems like you’re implying that Lemvotes somehow disproves the existence of bots and brigading lmao

Trump won because of election interference from Russia.

Key Evidence and Methods of Russian election interference:

• Cyber Hacking: Russian military intelligence (the GRU) hacked the computer networks of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), and key campaign officials like John Podesta, subsequently releasing stolen data via outlets like WikiLeaks, DCLeaks, and Guccifer 2.0. [1, 2]
• Social Media Disinformation: The St. Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency (IRA) used hundreds of fake social media personas, bot networks, and purchased advertisements to amplify divisive political and social issues, masquerading as U.S. citizens to sway public discourse. [1, 2]
• Targeting Election Infrastructure: Russian cyber actors scanned and probed state voter registration databases and election systems across multiple states ahead of the 2016 election, though vote tallies were not altered. [1, 2]
• Criminal Indictments: Federal grand juries indicted dozens of Russian nationals and military intelligence officers for computer hacking, identity theft, and conspiracy against the United States. [1, 2]

Official Findings

• Intelligence Community Assessments: Concluded that the Russian leadership developed a clear preference for Donald Trump and aimed to denigrate Hillary Clinton while undermining public faith in the American democratic process. [1, 2]
• Bipartisan Senate Findings: Confirmed the extensive nature of these foreign cyber and influence operations, noting coordination between online Russian fronts and active distribution channels

This logic is how Trump (the previous Kremlin choice) was elected.

You know who else is Rabidly against the Iran war? Iran, Russia, North Korea and China…

Tucker Carlson has a documented history of downplaying Russian aggression, echoing Kremlin talking points, and securing a high-profile interview with Vladimir Putin.

Key Milestones

• Dismissing the War: Shortly before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Carlson characterized the escalating conflict merely as a “border issue” and called Ukraine a “puppet of Washington”.
• The Moscow Interview: In February 2024, Carlson traveled to Moscow and became the first Western media figure to interview Vladimir Putin since the 2022 invasion.
• The History Lecture: During the two-hour interview, Putin spent a lengthy portion delivering an unchallenged historical monologue regarding Russia’s claims to Ukraine, which Carlson later stated left him “shocked” and “baffled”.
• The Aftermath and Reception: Critics, including former U.S. officials, labeled the interview a propaganda tool, while Russian state media heavily amplified Carlson’s visit to combat narratives of international isolation.

Everyone reading this should remember the account names promoting this candidate as they are likely Russian bots

Tucker Carlson the Russia asset? At least we know who the Kremlin wants to get elected.

This is how you get Fetterman, Sinema, Machin part 2

To give you colorectal cancer

Down with imperialist China. Hold them accountable for their genocide and enslavement of the Uyghur people.

The manufacturers don’t want to give up all the extra money they make from the maintenance and repairs that are needed for gas vehicles

To protect themselves from imperialist CHINA

Iran and China are helping to supply drones for this imperialist genocide.

you’re now accusing me of being a GOP shill

Nope, I’m stating a fact: you’re using the same talking points the GOP uses

you are now arguing in bad faith

Bad faith arguments are when you lie about what could be done to pretend dems didn’t do enough.

Just know the gaslighting is why the actual left will push most of the libs out of the Dem party, then break and leave them high and dry when the time comes.

Wow you speak for “the actual left”? Are they in the room right now?

When Dems refuse to use the same tactics as the gop to aggressively fight and get their way, they will always lose.

So you feel dems should commit an insurrection to stay in power turning this country into a dictatorship? Dems should promise tax cuts to billionares like Elon Musk so they pay voters to vote for their party? Dems should claim election fraud when there is none to degrade the integrity of our election system? Dems should try to throw out votes that aren’t for them? Dems should remove regulations for the fossil fuel industry and many others to get access to their propaganda machine? Dems should make it harder to vote for the voters that don’t agree with them so they can win without the support of the people?

“If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy”

This is what you think Dems should emulate while you claim to speak on behalf of “the actual left”.

But you clutch your pearls when I point out that you’re saying the same shit as the GOP.

I want to you take a long and hard look at Schumer, Manchin, Pelosi, Jeffries and their ilk, and see what they’re up to nowadays. Tell me with a straight face they’re fighting for their constituents. Explain to me how they ever cared about leftism or progressivism.

I want you to take a long and hard look at Sinema, Fetterman, Cotham, Gabbard, Adam’s and their ilk, and see what they’re up to nowadays. Tell me with a straight face they’re fighting for their constituents. Explain to me how they ever cared about leftism or progressivism.

By cherry picking the actions of the individual like you are I can use your bad faith argument to claim that progressives are doing the same things you blame the entire Democratic Party for.

Because you’re arguing in bad faith.
