Previously, Carlson said he had planned to sit-down with the Russia president while at Fox News but then called it off claiming the U.S. government was monitoring him.
“I tried to interview Vladimir Putin, and the U.S. government stopped me,” Carlson told the Swiss publication, Die Weltwoche back in September. “By the way, nobody defended me. I don’t think there was anybody in the news media who said, ‘Wait a second. I may not like this guy, but he has a right to interview anyone he wants, and we have a right to hear what Putin says.'”
Really makes you wonder what money is getting passed around on the back end to make these sniveling traitors kiss the ring of America’s biggest enemy since WWII.
I sure as fuck wouldn’t ask any unplanned hard hitting questions if I was an American reporter interviewing Putin in Russia. That interview is gonna be scripted as hell.
Fucker Carlson has never asked a hard question a day in his life. He’s there to get propaganda talking points directly from his boss since he can’t get them filtered through Fox anymore.
That’s also why nobody defended him. He’s a nazi PsyOps operative; not a journalist. Anything he asks is performative and only to serves his agenda. He doesn’t deserve defence. He deserves ridicule.
“I know the answer to this one personally but Mr. Putin why shouldn’t every American masterbait to topless photos of you?”
Defended him from what exactly? He’s the only one claiming that the supposed interview was blocked.
It’s no different than me claiming that I was supposed to be the next president of Russia, but was blocked by the US government, and nobody defended me!
Nah, Putin’s too smart to script interviews. He knows that he can lie, straightfaced, and absolutely nothing will come of it. They’re already sanctioned to hell by basically every major country on Earth, he’s shipping thousands of Russian men to the Ukrainian front just to feed them into a meatgrinder that’s barely holding any ground at all, and still the Russian people do nothing because there’s nothing to do. Everyone who really, actually gave a shit about making a change is either jailed in some fortified cement block in Siberia, abroad and too scared of getting assassinated to come back, or has already been assassinated. So they rise up, so what? There’s a tide of oligarchs who will rush in to replace Putin at the head of the table, and most of them have their own military forces on speed dial.
Or komrompat. Or both.
What’s " komrompat"? Did you mean “kompromat”, short for “compromising materials”?
No, just got the first two syllables out of order. “Rom Com” Pat, a genre-specific movie critic who moonlights as an assassin for SMERSH.

Did Russia finally realize you can just buy these assholes for a trifling amount of money?
It’s only like 50k or 100k each in Lobby bribes and these fuckers will vote (or not vote) how you want.
Given like 20 million, you’ve basically bought half of the US government for a few years.

Cool. Now don’t let him come back.
Another victim of return to the office
Joke of the year nominee here
“I guess I’m for democracy”
How is this bitch not registered as a foreign agent?
Remember when this cunt’s show was cancelled by a single appearance of Jon Stewart
My favorite part of that incident is how Tucker keeps trying to get Jon Stewart to say something funny instead of something honest and Stewart just refuses to play that game.
Unfortunately, it only resulted in Tucker’s career getting bigger.
“It’s not so much that [your show] is ‘bad’. It’s that it’s hurting America.”
Prophetic words.
The Day the Bow Tie Died.
Guys, it was a job interview. He’s not a real journalist.
Eh Ukraine! If y’all have any missiles aimed that way, now would be a great time to fire them off.
Two birds, one stone.

Russian propagandists are fair game in war.
For sure - he poses a real, tactical threat to Ukraine. They’d be 100% justified in blowing his ass up.
Would be a shame if he had something trackable on him and they happened to fire a missile at him while he was interviewing Putin.
An interview? Yeah right, he’s going to get his and Trump’s orders.
With any luck they’ll keep him.
Unironically, how great would it be if that loser officially takes a job in the Russian agitprop?
It would probably not be good. He’s very good at swaying right wing folks here in the US. He’d have more leeway over there.
He can throw himself on the mercies of Russia and Ukraine at the same time.
Let him out. Don’t let him back in.
Good idea.
Best possible take.
So, now that he’s an employee of the Kremlin, he gets to stay there permanently, right?
Fingers crossed that he is arrested for drug trafficking
That only happens if he does something that displeases Putin. But Tucker won’t do that because he’s a cowardly worm.
Because of course he is.
I loathe him so much. He really has a talent for speaking to rubes. His whole, “why should I dislike X? X hadn’t done anything to me, didn’t call me a racist,” perfectly speaks to his gullible idiots and verifies that it’s the world that is wrong and they’re correct and normal.
The heir to a massive family fortune acts like a man-of-the-people while wearing tailored suits and big-upping the wealthy and influential.
And his working-class Republican fans eat it up.
Just baffling.
Stupid is as stupid does.
Threatening nuclear annihilation is all fun and games, but calling someone racist? That’s crossing the line.
The thing that freaked me out the most when I first heard him was how much he spoke like that villain from 1984 (I forgot his name). With doublespeak and shit, really freaked me out
Tucker [confused fart-smelling face]: “Is diversity truly our strength? What if I go to my hometown and there are people speaking Spanish on the streets? What if I go get a haircut and the barber cannot speak English?”
I can’t stand his “another person is talking” face. Close your damn mouth, pretend to listen and then unleash the torrent of verbal diarrhea that you invited your guest-prop on to receive.
Diversity has never been anyone’s strength. It’s an oxymoronic phrase. Straight diversity & random shit doesn’t automatically result in a stronger, superior, or better product; it is carefully calculated & rationed components that work towards an agreed upon, common goal that result in that result in strength or advantage.
“Diversity is our strength” is an unsubstantiated, mealy-mouthed, dumb as hell phrase to make everybody feel good. It’s not American, and frankly, not based in reality.
What makes me curious is, not that he went to Russia, but just how did he get there?
From what I read, he had traveled to Alberta Canada and then it looks like he just flew to Russia from there. I’m under the impression that there is no commercial air travel from the US or Canada to Russia. So where did he fly to after he left Canada? China? North Korea? Cuba? Taylor Swift’s private jet?
Nah i just looked, I can get a flight to moscow february 11 for 1900 bucks out of Toronto
Heck, I’d fly to Moscow if they’re going to pay me $1900 to do it.
He’s just working out the flight plans for when it comes time for ol’ donnie to make his exit
You sound just like him. Well played.
Step one, pretend you’re looking at the situation holistically by focusing on something semi-related.
Step two, frame potential answers as questions to be able to make your opponent look worse without actually saying anything verifiable.
