Tucker Carlson - Susan Rosenberg, Terrorist is behind Thousand Currents and BLM Black Lives Matter Four and a half minutes of Tucker Calrson spoonfeeding the same type of lies and B.S. that trumpites have as a lite snack. Yet his supporters wonder why FOX is at the forefront of the trump agenda, the GOP messaging. Yet all his SC supporters claim to think for themselves. Claim to be independents.

I don't watch FN very often. Using Bill's format I'll change it around to fit. It's like someone saying that the Vice Chair of one of the Homeowners Associations you have to pay if you wish to own a house in that neighborhood, is also on the board of the utility co-op and decides or at the very least has high influence where the the neighborhood must use as its water or electric supplier.

Exactly, the conspiracy theories you extoll about Biden like Ukrainian corruption are neither truth nor fact, but you do it anyway. If you had a line on any tangential connection to the KKK or other hate group you would certainly use it. Heck, you tried to use the fact that George Floyd's family buried him in a gold coffin (and you still haven't explained why that bugged you so much) to discredit the entire BLM movement, which surely means there's no limit to how preposterous a claim you're willing to make.
