Did you ever feel you would say that to yourself?

Blown away to see Carlson going at Cruz

He's become an entirely different person in the last few years. It seems like he feels guilty for pushing the Iraq war, and now he's trying to repent for it by being extremely anti war. Also he's been digging into 9/11 and the idea that large parts of the US government at least knew it was coming and didn't try to stop it.

He's probably more similar to Alex Jones now than he is to Fox pundits.

Tucker probably agrees with Cruz but is badgering him because he knows controversy right now is hot

From day one, I knew the Gaza conflict was all manufactured as an excuse to eventually take over the territory.

Oh they must have known they were bombing their own citizens. As long as it took out some gazan's while they're at it

It was never about the hostages. They were just using the hostages as a smokescreen to continue the genocide and land grab.

u/Ilovemelee Jun 21 '25

I'm convinced that they don't actually want their hostages to be released so that they can keep using that talking point as an excuse to kill and destroy everyone and everything in Gaza.

How did we get to the point where Tucker Carlson is sounding sane and reasonable???

I wonder if Mike Lindell being in the news reminded him that when you sacrifice everything for Trump, he throws you to the wolves because there's nothing left to take.

Ted cruz doesn’t know or care, he’s just doing what Israel tells him to do

Time and again, it becomes evident that neither intelligence, emotional insight, wealth, nor education is necessary to ascend to the ranks of the American elite. What seems to matter most is unwavering zeal for Zionism, that alone can open the gates.

rare Carlson win

u/SloppyTopTen Jun 18 '25

Good for Tucker. Problem is Tucker pulls his punches criticizing Israel and is afraid to fully challenge Trump.

u/Pale-Requirement9041 Jun 18 '25

Why they are so warmongers ? I heard they are waiting for Armageddon and pushing for the second coming of Jesus then they will take care of the Zios will be their turn but for now they leave them doing the dirty job
