Screw this guy. Piece of human garbage, I wouldn't even piss on him if he was on fire....

Good meme though... 👍

You're right, I would only piss on him if he was specifically not on fire

If I'd learn to piss fire, though, he'd be getting more of my attention.

Wouldn't pissing fire be painful

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson confirmed speculation he’s in Russia for an interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“We’re in journalism,” he said in a video posted to social media. “Our duty is to inform people.”

Carlson was first spotted in Moscow over the weekend attending a performance at the Bolshoi Theater. … the 54-year-old right-wing provocateur made clear Tuesday that was his plan and offered an explanation.

“Two years into a war that’s reshaping the entire world, most Americans are not informed,” Carlson said of Russia’s war with Ukraine, which began in February 2022. “They have no real idea what’s happening in this region.”

Carson also thanked Elon Musk “to his great credit” for allowing his unedited Putin interview to be posted on social media platform X, which began hosting Carlson’s content after Fox News dumped the former primetime host in April. …

According to Carlson, he’s not interviewing the Russian leader because “we love Vladimir Putin,” but rather because “we love the United States.”

Carlson has been heavily criticized for numerous comments he’s made sympathetic to…Putin …

“Has Putin ever called me a racist?” Carlson, whose racially charged rhetoric is well-documented, asked Fox News viewers in 2022. “Has he threatened to get me fired for disagreeing with him? These are fair questions, and the answer to all of them is ‘No.’ Vladimir Putin didn’t do any of that.”

Russian state television has also been known to praise Carlson’s work. In 2020…Mother Jones reported that the Kremlin told Russian media outlets “it is essential” they promote reporting by Carlson that’s critical of the U.S.

Since leaving television, Carlson has posted interviews with former President Donald Trump, alleged human trafficker Andrew Tate and fraudster Larry Sinclair, who claims to have had “a night of crack cocaine-fueled sex” with former President Barack Obama.

Hadn’t heard the Larry Sinclair thing. EX-Twitter really is an irrelevant shithole.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

To be fair, who hasn’t had a crack fueled night of passion with Obama?

Did Limbaugh v27 interview Putin or something?

Horrible horrible things could happen to him and I'd just laugh. He's a spineless turd who doesn't even believe any of the bullshit he spews.

The best part of Tucker ran down his mother‘s leg.

[–] Faydaikin@beehaw.org 2 points 9 months ago

As with most people.

Out of nowhere starting yesterday my YouTube feed is filled with random, super small channels all pushing video about "Tucker Carlson and Vladimir Putin dropping truth bombs that own Biden and the libs". There's a lot of money behind this vanity campaign, and there will be an attempt to shape the national dialogue.

Tucker Carlson is the human equivalent of that little bit of shit that won't quite wipe off all the way.

Who would want to watch an hour of slurping sounds?

As that showman who interviewed General Engel in Wolfenstein would say before getting unsubscribed from life: Wunderbar, Wunderbar! /S
