Good evening and welcome to Tucker Carlson.
It tells you a lot about the priorities of our ruling class that the rest of us
are getting yet
another lecture about January six tonight from our moral inferiors, no less.
An outbreak of mob violence a forgettable e minor outbreak by recent standards that
took place more than a year and a half ago but
they've never stopped talking about it.
>> So we know definitely that every major network showed the entire
primetime hearing last night except Fox news.
Instead the propaganda mill decided to feature
tucker Carlson what throwing a tantrum.
So yeah, awesome this for the Washington post.
Carlson and his producers plastered hysterical Chiron's across the screen for
their millions of viewers to see January 6th committee fuels false narratives as
sham investigation drags on leaders will spend 90 minutes giving moral lecture.
Our leaders are focusing on January six while ignoring the real threats.
Absolutely, yeah, he had to definitely go there.
And as you can imagine, of course, one of the men of the hours from last night,
Sean Hannity, he decided to follow in suit.
You can check out here of this screenshot of him being Sean Hannity.
Yeah. Today's hearing political theater.
That's cute.
Exactly.
But it wasn't just the faces of Fox news, mind you that engaged in a distraction
campaign or attempted distraction campaign last night because the GOP did much of
the same again for the Huffington post, 10 minutes before the hearings began.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy tweeted about democrats ignoring America's
crime crisis.
Apparently forgetting that hundreds of January six writers have been charged with
crimes related to that day.
And along with that, McCarthy shared a crude two hour video of graphic
violence spliced with text saying things like the Democrat Party is for
the breakdown of society.
Yeah, I really appreciate that.
It just seems that they are going the distance in order not to be held
accountable and of course not to be outdone.
Well, Congressman Fred Keller from Pennsylvania's 12th district tweeted this.
It's fascinating to see Democrats packed into a full committee room even
though many of them used proxy voting as an excuse not to show up to work for
the past two years.
Also the GOP directly from their account tweeted joe bide hasn't had a press
interview in 100 and 21 days.
The House judiciary GOP still reading off a teleprompter.
Yeah, because we know that that that was a relevant part of last night.
Let's just pause there for a minute.
It's just really interesting all the things people do to deflect from
their crime ng.
It's very nice Brett.
>> It is amazing.
So I did this, I had the split screen going on.
I had deep dive with Jordan.
You'll where he was doing live reactions to the hearings and
on the other side, I had tucker Carlson and then Sean Hannity.
And amazingly if you go back to those screenshots in the beginning,
they tried to make it look as boring as possible on Fox news.
So graphic too, you'll see it looks like Thompson and
Chaney are just kinda looking off into the, into nothingness.
While tucker Carlson is talking about how much nothingness is
going on during that exact moment when I took that screenshot,
Cheney and Thompson are looking at monitors of previously
unseen carnage at the capitol building.
They are reverently looking off like I can't believe this is happening and
everyone else watching any other tv network is watching.
People threatened to kill the Vice President Break Windows and say that they
are on a tirade to end democracy in America, that's what they're looking at.
But if you watch Fox news, it looks like the most boring thing in America.
And so tucker even said he was not gonna go to commercial break, so
I'm not gonna go to commercial break just to show you how much nothing's going on.
But there was so much happening and
as much as they launch invective at at the January 6th committee for
hiring producers to make smart decisions to present things a certain way.
These smart producers at Fox news realized they had a one a two shot of the people
presiding over the hearing and they were gonna make them look like idiots in and
at the very same time that people like tucker are saying, well,
they're just doing selective editing and taking things out of context that's
literally physically what you've seen them do at the same time.
The only other distraction they had, they actually had Michael Tracey on who used to
be a T Y T contributor doing the classic make a point.
That's not the point move that tucker Carlson loves so much where Michael Tracy
came on to talk about the nothing that the that the democrats are doing in Congress,
which is something that T I T covers very obviously we talk about it all the time.
The only difference is tucker Carlson has people like Michael Tracy on
to say that's the only point when I would argue that yes I can do both,
do the rub your chest and pat your head kind of thing.
And I can say that two things are important, one making the economy and
the justice system work for all Americans and
to preserving the mechanisms of democracy.
The few ones we have left in a world where the Republicans can lose the popular vote
and still get the presidency for the last 20 years.
With the exception of a re election campaign for George Bush during a war.
>> God, I know that when you're bringing up George Bush things about really,
really off track and I agree with you.
Like it's just absolutely while the hypocrisy Fox news is throwing out.
And especially during this time.
And I love that Carlson didn't go to break in part because he didn't
want people to switch over to another channel during commercials.
He wanna try to hold your attention so
that you did not switch over to hear what any of the other networks were saying,
which was the same thing in unison by showing this hearing.
Also, it's absolutely true the fact that they're trying to condemn them for
hiring a quote unquote Hollywood producer.
It's like I hired an expert that knows exactly what I'm supposed to
do to communicate content in an effective way that will inform and
educate people and convey the message in a way that is most again effective.
So I just really hope that people were intelligent enough to watch.
