“He that bothereth in his own house shall inherit the wind.” — Proverbs 11:29
A couple of ground rules you need to understand. First, it is no coincidence that the number one rated cable talk show host in America, Tucker Carlson, is a star of Russian TV. It makes perfect sense because he’s spouting Kremlin talking points.
Second, the War in Ukraine is the new COVID, now that the real COVID is simmering down. Just take all the faux outrage and the talking points and transfer it over. It frankly wouldn’t surprise me to learn that an assignment editor at Fox News has said this very thing.
Finally, and most importantly, this is the first time in history that both parties have not united as one behind the sitting president in a time of war. Partisan fever is more important than democracy. Hating the Democrat in the White House is more important than uniting with our allies abroad against democracy’s autocratic enemies. Think about that.
Now listen to TuckyoRose give the Kremlin’s side of things, because this is what you’re going to be hearing for a while. First we start out with the secret bio labs, where else? Carlson got his cue for that from the Russian ambassador to the UN, or maybe he gave him his cue. In any event, they both spewed the same talking points within a 12-hour period.
Carlson opened w/claims about Biden "funding a number of secret bio labs in Ukraine" conducting "experiments on highly dangerous pathogens." These claims, which have been pushed by Russian media, are false. The US has worked w/Ukrainian labs, but on normal public health research. pic.twitter.com/Zn4Y4aeByi

Carlson, no doubt aware of him flimsy his claims are, almost immediately moved the goalposts. His monologue culminated with insinuations that any sort of scientific research on deadly pathogens is inherently suspicious. pic.twitter.com/vcjvVAOZ1U

Greenwald's interview ended with him layering distortion upon distortion and suggesting the US is funding biolabs in Ukraine because it wants "to be provocative toward the Russians" — a talking point also pushed by the Kremlin pic.twitter.com/ndDMOf6yDY

This is it. This is the basic boilerplate for the right-wing narrative to come. Here’s Steve Bannon solidifying that idea even further.
Bannon says Ukraine’s entry into the EU is a “non-starter” with Russia, so he better stop pushing for it. “You got Zelensky. Hey, put me in the column of – I’ve already had a belly full of this guy. I understand he’s running around like a Marvel hero with a gun …” pic.twitter.com/OHnH8cqwEw

There are more Russians opposing Putin right now than Republicans. Let that one sink in. The message here is that people who have sworn to uphold the constitution are not doing that. They’re betraying their oaths of office and betraying their country. Moreover, they’re siding with a Russian lunatic dictator by doing so.
So the Republicans continue being traitorous two-faced morons?
Noted.
We have a new word for Quisling.
Republican.
A party of vipers.
Most of those labs in Ukraine are standard class-2 medical labs, like you find all over the US.
“And a man’s foes shall be those of his own household.” (Matthew 10 – 36)
William Blake got thses people’s guiding philosophy three centuries ago: “The past is the only dead thing that smells sweet.”
These loudmouths know they’re next to pay for Putin’s previous mistakes. As such, this is a harebrained attempt to pull a rabbit out of the hat like they did with Trump in terms of getting a favorable outcome.
Remember this too: there may be more of a direct link between J6 and what’s happening in Ukraine than what we realize. As such, these twerps may well be an intel goldmine which helps save lives half a world away.
Maybe, the government needs to talk to the Murdochs and threaten a little deportation as “undesirable aliens” and confiscate all their US properties.
We might see a massive change in what gets told (I refuse to use the term “reported”) on Fox “News.”
Sadly, Joseph, Ronnie Raygun granted the Murdochs US citizenship, just about the same time he deleted the “fairness in broadcasting” doctrine on their behalf.
