In the wake of Tucker Carlson’s firing, Pentagon officials disgrace themselves

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

He just gave his response on NewsMax it was good. I am sure it will be available soon. I am sure it is about all he could say right now.

I'm sure Newsmax played it, but to be clear, it was not given on Newsmax. He dropped it on YouTube, Rumble, etc. and not any particular channel.

Tucker Carlson is Right: It’s about Evil
By J. Robert Smith

If you never watched the brilliant German movie, Downfall, do so. It stars the late Bruno Ganz, whose portrayal of Adolf Hitler during his last days in his Berlin bunker was powerfully chilling. Hitler was a psychopath, whose unshakable certitude and will were central to driving National Socialism’s capture of the German people. Both were also central to the numbing devastation that Hitler’s hubris brought to Germans in the end.

Seeing the movie again, and having had read various accounts of Hitler’s and the Nazi’s rise and fall, I’m left with two key takeaways: at core, National Socialism was a cult, and it was terribly evil. No revelation the last point. But it was a cult, characterized by pseudo-religious sensibilities -- fanatically so. Its dogma (Aryan superiority, among other tenets), trappings, hierarchy of priests, and capstone deity, Hitler, made it an uber cult.

Prior to being fired by Fox News, Tucker Carlson spoke to a Heritage Foundation audience. Carlson’s remarks were seminal. He identified the clash between traditional America and the Left as rising to an entirely new and ominous level.

We’ve moved beyond mere politics and policy differences, Carlson claimed. The conflict is with a Left that has increasingly embraced evil. That’s hard to accept. Most Americans don’t want to regard other Americans as evil. But the evidence is abundant and growing.

Maybe Carlson’s bold assertion was a reason why the Murdochs canned him? The Murdochs are quintessential players. Their interests aren’t served when their network’s marquee personality infers that a civilizational clash is underway.
Ads by topple

Per the Daily Wire, April 22:

Tucker Carlson delivered a speech on Friday contending that the American political debate has moved beyond a contest between rival policy positions and is now driven by [left-wing] factions with fundamentally “evil” objectives.

The veteran television host and journalist, whose Fox News show attracts millions of viewers every evening, remarked at an event for the Heritage Foundation that fellow conservatives must swiftly adjust their approaches to the national conversation since some political forces desire to tear down the nation rather than engage in legitimate political dialogue. [Italics added]

Conservatives, as Carlson suggests, really have no choice. American civilization hangs in the balance.

If conservatives fail to acknowledge this evil, they’ll surrender unearned advantages to the Left and its allies, who’ll continue to claim good moral intent while upending the nation.

The Left -- which has captured the Democrat party, portions of the establishment, corporate media, corporate America, and a wide range of institutions -- is destructive because it is thoroughly Marxist. Marx proclaimed the need to destroy traditional civilization as a prerequisite for utopia. Marxism has always been a cult. The American Left exhibits all the traits of being a cult driven to ruin and domination.

Let’s make a quick qualifier, lest critics charge labeling the Left and its allies as evil paints too broadly.

Not everyone on the Left and among its allies are evil. Some are cynics angling for personal gain. Many others are useful idiots.

Posted April 25 at Twitter by Xi Van Fleet, a survivor of Mao’s Cultural Revolution and a “defender of liberty:”

Mao was a master of collecting & mobilizing useful idiots to help him to gain power. [snip]

American useful idiots have no idea that the same fate awaits them [exile and reeducation] after their usefulness is over. They don’t know bc they were never taught the history of communism.

The American Left has no Mao to lead it… no living deity, though it does have priests -- in academia, media, the arts, nonprofits, corporations, and government. It does have Marx’s and Mao’s ghosts. Mao’s Little Red Book is the New Testament compliment to Marx’s Communist Manifesto.

Today’s Marxism encompasses more than politics and economics. It’s cultural in scope. It has no relationship to the old liberalism of mid-20th Century America. Old liberalism -- the JFK brand -- and conservativism once shared similar values.

Liberals and conservatives once attended the same churches; their kids went to the same schools. All were patriots, extolling American virtues. They opposed tyranny. They had different ideas about the role of government but shared the same ends: make America better, more prosperous, preserve rights and liberties. RFK Jr. echoed some of that old liberalism in his presidential campaign kickoff remarks, speaking against what he regards as the new tyranny: the merger of state and corporate power.

Kennedy is right, in part, but is too limited in scope.

Today’s Left despises the shared values that once gave liberals and conservatives common ground. The Left is a cult instigating a movement to destroy traditional mores and culture, and then impose a radically new, perverse morality and order on Americans. It is fanatical, uncompromising, and bloodless as it pursues power and domination.

Carlson sums up why conservatives need to change their thinking. Per Daily Wire:

“We write our papers and they write their papers, and may the best papers win. I don’t think that’s what we’re watching now at all. I don’t think we’re watching a debate on how to get to the best outcome. I think that’s completely wrong,” Carlson said. “There is no way to assess, say, the transgenderist movement with that mindset. Policy papers don’t account for it at all. If you have people who are saying, ‘I have an idea, let’s castrate the next generation, let’s sexually mutilate children,’ I’m sorry, that’s not a political debate. That has nothing to do with politics.”

Indeed, sexually mutilating children to “change their gender” is well beyond politics. It’s deranged, for starters, and abusive and demeaning of a child’s personhood. As Carlson pointed out, proclaiming killing babies in the womb a “positive good” is morally grotesque. Sexually indoctrinating children -- from kindergarten forward -- is a lurid act of mental and emotional molestation.

Razing the working and middle classes by choking off conventional energy production; attacking law and order; imposing reverse racist policies as retributions against nonblacks for the false charge of ongoing “systemic racism;” forcing woke in schools and businesses; dictating where citizens should live; even dictating what cars -- if any -- Americans drive; and what constitutes diets make the argument all the more persuasive that the Left is a cult with no stop built in.

There’s a cold war underway that’s unlimited in scope, initiated by a pernicious, destructive leftist cult, a war whereby society is to be consumed, spit out, and remade. Failure isn’t an option. Fanatics aren’t interested in splitting differences. They want nothing to do with peaceful coexistence. There’s no “national divorce” in the offing. They’re predatory, sanctimonious, and very willing to blow up everything rather than concede. They’re true believers, whose souls are entirely consumed.

A leftist cult on the scale we’re discussing rarely self-immolates without destroying the innocent, too. As with Germany’s Nazi cult, if this evil American cult isn’t vanquished first, it will rule ruinously. And if its hold on power falters, it means to leave nothing behind.

Carlson, again, from the Daily Wire:

Carlson noted that Americans should turn to heaven for hope as the nation’s foundations collapse. “Maybe we should all just take 10 minutes per day to say a prayer about it,” he concluded.

That prayer needs to be a call for strength, resolve, and acceptance of realities, and the courage to fight to defeat the malicious forces loose among us. Our rights, our freedom, our very lives are at stake.

So, how are TV ratings measure these days? In the past, we had the Nielsen system; first, it was a journal participants kept IIRC, and then it was an electronic apparatus connected to their TV.

How are we getting these near-instantaneous numbers these days? I realize most viewers are not getting their shows OTA, so, do these cable and satellite providers furnish numbers, or what?

Chris Hayes won the most viewers on Wednesday night at the 8pm timeslot. That is a disaster for Fox. Chris freaking Hayes. My goodness.

FOX just started charging extra for various programs on FOX Nation. I guess they have to make up for the 780 or so million they just lost in the lawsuit.

I don't know how they measure who is watching what, but I am making sure that my TV is not turned on to FOX between 7:00 and 8:00 P.M. Central time at my house.

Many of the things the leftists are trying to do can only be intended to utterly destroy normal modern quality of life. One simple example is the push to eliminate petroleum based vehicles and require electric vehicles, while at the same time hobbling the electrical energy supply system, and trying to impose carbon capture at power plants which will double the cost of electricity and be worse for the environment. The same powerful people are involved in forcing these contradicting policies on us.

My only correction to the article is that the leftists are bloodthirsty. Perhaps the author meant something different when he wrote "bloodless" such as without compassion. But leftists have shown they are quite willing to cause limitless human suffering and death.

FTA:

Scale – Tucker Carlson 2 Minute Video Had More Viewers Than All Cable News Programming Combined in 24 Hour Period – 72.7M vs 53.1M

To give scale to the growing insignificance of broadcast news networks, consider this fact-based analysis.

Tucker Carlson released a two-minute video on Twitter that had 72.7 million views in 24 hours. The entire cable news industry combined, every show on every channel, over the corresponding timeframe had 53.1 million views.

Tucker Carlson had more viewers than the combined total legacy media cable news networks combined.

Yeah, there are more of us than them…. and Tucker Carlson is the most powerful man in the media right now.

These numbers (in the thousands) for the key demos at 8p are an absolute disaster for Fox.

Wednesday night:

FOX NEWS TONIGHT: 124
ANDERSON COOPER 360: 139
ALL IN W/ CHRIS HAYES: 167

Thursday (a little better but still terrible):

FOX NEWS TONIGHT: 136
ANDERSON COOPER 360: 108
ALL IN W/ CHRIS HAYES: 144

Yes, TC does/did have fundamental differences with Rupert, Lachlan and Paulie Ryan because that FOX bunch hates freedom and are one world order sycophants. TC was telling truths that was upsetting their global agenda so they fired him.

Critical thinking is a lost art for many so they suck up whatever msm bullshit is fed them and then promptly regurgitate it.

And how TC could cause his boss to be a cunt? I imagine that is a resume requirement if you want to work at FOX under Ryan and the Murdochs.

The ensigmatic household does not, and never has, watched Fox News. Primarily because it's only available as part of exorbitant subscription packages. At one point, had Fox News had a reasonable streaming offer, something like OAN's $5/mo., we probably would've signed up.

Now we're no longer interested.

At all.
