    Tell us, why?
    Or just another RW conspiracy theory like the one about some stolen election.
    Those who believe a stolen election have zero credibility.

    Here's Tucker's views on the Russian/Ukraine conflict in a nut shell.



    The libo hero John Bolton was on MSNBC calling for American troops inside Ukraine!

    Doesnt explain then why he’s falling for Russian misinformation campaigns, and why the right seem so susceptible to them.

    Then why was she never charged?

    Durham himself has admitted this has nothing to do with Hillary

    Didn’t ask the central question

    Has he poisoned people who he does not agree with? Answer yes!!

    Funny how Tuckums did not include that question

    What question?

    So you are saying we should have as world war with Russia because Putin is not a nice person? Putin is a poisoner! So nuke Moscow? Seriously what in the hell is your point?

    Tucker never defends Putin as a world citizen. Does he?

    The point is that the Ukraine is not worth a war with Russia and it is not worth a prolonged cold war and that China who has an economy 10X bigger than Russia should be our main concern.

    So kissing Russia's ass is an impeachable offense? Keeping in mind that Tucker Carlson is a talk show host not a diplomat!

    Ok I'll run with that. So a president close talking in secret(He thought it was secret) with Putin's top man that we will kiss their asses after the election is treason. So Obama needs to be arrested now?



    They were talking about missiles in Europe! Lethal military aimed at Russia! The president of the USA is telling our enemy he will do their bidding after his reelection!

    That's collusion and treason. Arrest him now!

    Hi Mate - what time is it in the USA? I am unused to seeing anyone on these boards in our evening time except Eastern Europeans of course . Are you doing a night duty?

    not saying anything like what you are insinuating just pointing out Tuckums left out a pretty big issue when it comes to Putin because not only does old Pooty boy poison people but he often does it in a spectacular manner that also endangers others

    THAT is what make Vlad the khuylo as he is affectionately known in his own country and Ukraine, an offensive little arse rag

    However Tuckums is in a position to sway his audience and there is NOTHING khuylo loves more than the old “divide and conquer

    Now a real man a real president. Getting in the face of Nato allies and telling them to not be dependent on Russian energy because it weakens them while making Russia stronger!



    Note the contrast. One trying make NATO stronger and Russia less strong and the other saying he will blow Putin after reelection.

    Trump was supposed to be pro Putin? He was making NATO stronger!

    Of course if Germany and other countries are less dependent on Russian energy where will they go instead? One of the places would be American oil and gas producers.

    So Trump was advocating for NATO and against Russia and also for American energy.

    No answer to my question? Should the magic negro(Obama) be arrested for colluding with Putin the poisoner?

    You are the ones obsessed with Putin and Russia. You are the ones who want to impeach presidents based on a single phone call.

    Ohhhh! How sweet that you think I am so obsessed that I spend every minute of every day on this board just reading your posts!

    Still think it is almost treasonous to worship the Poisoner of Moscow!

    Gee, how silly. He isn't on a cable station owned by the people. The Murdoch's own it. They are paying him while he spews this anti-American, pro-Putin drivel. But we agree on one thing. That so many Repubs lap it up makes me sometimes feel this isn't the country I grew up in any more.

    Carlson isn't alone in extolling the virtues of Putin.

    Steve Bannon praises Putin's speech about Ukraine: “You wouldn't hear an American politician except for Donald Trump do that”
    https://www.mediamatters.org/jack-p...-ukraine-you-wouldnt-hear-american-politician

    Check out the quote behind Bannon. No coincidences? Well, it's certainly not a coincidence to see multiple conservative media outlets line up behind Putin.

    And then there is the most recent praise of Putinski by Mike Pompeo (I will never be POTUS), The New Lap Band, convert. Talk about a Putie fan boy. Shocking.

    This fan boy went to West Point, WTF!

    Mike is so impressed with Vlad's ability as a strategist he forgot to mention he's a brutal dictator who murders or imprisons those who oppose him. I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone, certainly not an American, speak of Putin so endearingly. Well, with the exception of Tucker Carlson.

    Except he isn't and we aren't. To be sure, the situation in Ukraine is a lot more complex than most people understand. And sadly our state department is spreading nearly as much misinformation as the Kremlin.

    Sorry, that's just the way it is.
