The section of Tucker Carlson's interview with Darryl Cooper about WWII is awful -- but their immigration discussion shows that the Nazi apologias are about creating a permission structure for a fascist turn in the US. mediamatters.org/tucker-carlson…

To understand the full horrors of the Cooper-Carlson interview, you need to listen to their discussion of how the US and Western Europe won WWII but "now look like they lost a world war" due to mass immigration from the Third World. mediamatters.org/tucker-carlson…

This is what it looks like when people want to talk about Holocaust denial without admitting that that is what they're doing. mediamatters.org/tucker-carlson…

I think Commentator-1 has to be Dave Rubin. The indictment says Commentator-1 published 130 videos on the platform; Rubin published 130 while Benny Johnson only published 87.

The good news is there's someone out there with deep pockets willing to put real money into alternative media and actually pay their talent well. The bad news is that it's the Kremlin.

Of course the last thing Tenet Media posted here before being exposed as a Russian propaganda front was a sneering attack on a trans person.

As b-boy bouiebaisse notes, the whole premise of Biden age coverage was that his mental capacity for the job is a matter of national importance. Why not apply this to Trump's addled incoherence, lack of curiosity, serial lying, and sadistic verbal abuses? 5/ newrepublic.com/article/185622…

I have very little patience for those that express shock that Carlson would "go there." He's been there for some time. The doubters and skeptics are either stupid or dishonest or both. unpopularfront.news/p/were-so-back

look conservatives, i know your cable news outlet was caught lying to you about the election and your fave podcasters were caught being paid millions to shill for an authoritarian gov, but at least you still have dan bongino

getting mad about dr seuss and bud light and black barbie are righteous fights, not manipulative efforts to trick you into engaging to pad the bank accounts of no talent hacks that are just telling you what you want to hear and tricking you into being perpetually angry and scared

No, it's exactly the issue, Ben. When people are paying you $400k a month, which is more money than they have ever made before by far, they didn't wonder: Gee, who has that kind of money, and why are they spending it on me?

Tariffs will make diapers and baby clothes and stuff more expensive, but I don't think that's going to help with child care costs. x.com/byHeatherLong/…

Yesterday, Tucker Carlson said "sending women to go fight our wars" is "like walking by a pile of human feces on the sidewalk." He'll appear on stage later this month with GOP VP nominee JD Vance, who served in Iraq -- presumably alongside women. mediamatters.org/charlie-kirk/t…
