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.
Cool. Now don't let him come back.
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.
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.
Guys, it was a job interview. He's not a real journalist.
An interview? Yeah right, he's going to get his and Trump's orders.
So, now that he's an employee of the Kremlin, he gets to stay there permanently, right?
With any luck they'll keep him.
Unironically, how great would it be if that loser officially takes a job in the Russian agitprop?
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.
While I would fucking love for Putin to even do an interview with an unbiased journalist that's not afraid of falling out of a 14th story window, this is not what's going to happen.
I doubt an interview will help. Any journalist doing that would be throwing their life away for nothing.
Putin gives interviews all the time, and he simply and plainly lies about reality. That is an essential part of Putin's power - he is showing Russian people, constantly, that he can lie to their face without consequences. If a journalist confronted him with facts, he would simply deny them. If a journalist challenged him, he is very well-trained to not react in a way that exposes discomfort or legitimizes the response.
I'd love to know who's footing the bill for his trip.
Also, I thought the terms of is foxnews contract were such that he isn't supposed to be doing any news anchoring type gigs - did something change?
Putin will be paying. This helps him.
I don't think he works at Fox anymore, he's got own thing going now in internet TV shit or something like that.
Sure, but I meant that after he was fired, he was/is still beholden to several contractual terms about non-competes for a set amount of time.
Because of course he is.
The us government would be stupid not to monitor him
The US government is stupid.
But the need to keep an eye on this guy anyway.
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.
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
There’s no reportedly. Pictures all over Reddit now.
He's chosen his master, let him stay there.
An independent US journalist, ex-Foxnews host Tucker Carlson arrived in Russia for the first time and has spent three days in Moscow already. On the morning of February 1, according to social media, the former FoxNews anchor was spotted at Istanbul airport boarding a Turkish Airlines flight to Moscow. Unfortunately, the flight was delayed for two hours, but eventually Tucker arrived safely in the Moscow Vnukovo airport. Today he attended the ballet "Spartacus" at the Bolshoi Theater, social media reports
please explain images? Also third party mobile app made it impossible to reply to your message (not your issue) but context is always helpful.
Cucker Tarlson needs to find a little apartment to move into there.
Tucker is just dying to lick those boots
Super cool that he just did an event with the head of government, Danielle Smith in the province of Alberta Canada
