After watching this:
Tucker Carlson segment I was sickened but not surprised. The man has no honor. He has no redeemeening character. He's a fucking worm Why?
First off not too long into it he was going off about the leaked documents and how "the news media exists...their only job is too tell the truth." Really Tucker? Really? So what happens to those who are caught red-handed lying? You should be an expert on that subject. How can anyone believe anything the man says? I learned a long time ago that when someone lies to me, it takes one hell of a long time to build back the trust that was there before the lie. But here he is spouting the "news media needs to tell the truth".
so on I go into his presentation. The next thing? He's telling me that the young man who posted the documents is whistleblower, not a criminal and that we have every right to see them. WTF???
So on I go listening and what next? Well according to him the documents are saying that Ukraine is losing the war, badly. The funny thing is I can't find ANY corroborating articles. There are many that say Ukraine is running out of artillery and ammo. There are a few more that say there will be a stalemate for quite some time. But nowhere can I find any articles claiming Ukraine is losing and nobody anywhere is saying they are losing as badly as Tucker is making out.
Then I got to the real meat of his talk: The claim the documents show that US troops are fighting in Ukraine, face to face fighting with Russian troops! After a bit I find an article that explains, we do have troops in Ukraine, 14 TOTAL as part of a UN force. It didn't say what they were doing but I doubt very much if they were on the front lines fighting. Anyone familiar with military operations should know that more than likely they are advisors to the Ukrainian military. But to hear Tucker tell it, which he does with omission of facts and numbers, he makes it sound like we have Divisions of fully armed combat troops on the front lines!
So I do keep tabs on Tucker, listen to some of his shows, fact check everything he says. So far his BS rate is 80%. I can't take more than a few minutes because I'm very allergic to BS, but I do try to see what it is he is saying.
The sad part is anyone who still listening to him, anyone who still considers him as a serious news person is either touched or stupid, or both.
