Tucker Carlson opens his Nov. 16th 8pm EST show bashing lockdowns.
Why no Election Fraud coverage?
Tucker should have been slamming lockdowns back in March and April instead of cheerleading them. At this rate, he'll be hitting election fraud in June 2021.
8:20pm EST, after Tucker does several sub-segments bashing lockdowns, he says:
"Well. You probably heard about Dominion voting software used in the election some places. There are claims that it cased massive fraud, turned the course of the election. Update, after the break."
8:25pm EST, after long commercial break Tucker finally gets around to the pesky Election Fraud topic.
"We're not going to endorse that story until we see the evidence ourselves."
Then he goes on usual spiel about elites and media double-standards for ignoring the story. Ironic!
Tucker spends nine minutes taking neutral line on the Election Fraud Question, mainly his usual spiel of carefully worded outrage at double-standards, but ends on this line:
"No democracy can survive many more elections than this one."
Tucker Carlson: "We've been asked a lot about THIS show's future on this channel, and we'll tell you what it is, coming up."
the tweet came between the tease and the reveal and says:
"uh tucker just said “theres been a lot of questions about this show’s future on this network”, i’m gonna guess this is gonna be a fox news defense, big yikes"
Tucker completely punted on Election Fraud and now says all but openly/directly that he is on the side of the coup regime at Fox News (whose ratings have been hit hard since the coup).
Hard to guess if it was an ultimatum to Tucker from above or what.

It seems the death rate of people with The Virus on an all-population basis for a first-world population is 0.03% to 0.25%, depending on which subdemographics it hits disproportionately and on baseline age and health of the community.
0.03%-0.25% deaths of people with the virus,
but
(1) There is no virus in history that 100% of people get. Expansion then end with #herdimminity. Wuhan-Corona, like other coronaviruses, looks to fade out at a <30% threshold.
(2) 0.8% to 1.0% of society dies any year anyway.
The categories Corona-Positive Deaths (0.01%-0.08% of society) and Expected Deaths This Year (0.8%-1.0% of society) are also going to overlap by a substantial degree; share of nursing home deaths being a good proxy.
The final mortality impact may be closer to +0.01% than +0.1%.
(1) The media is lying but "trying to hold the republic together" at this point; (2) Trump will prove voter fraud; (3) Trump will step down anyway; (4) This for the good of the country to prevent civil war
@ScottAdamsSays that Trump stepping down AFTER proving election fraud will be "like George Washington."
A reference to Washington supposedly declining to be crowned King of America when he could have, and/or declining a third presidential term when he easily could have had one.
Scott Adams ends his Nov. 14 broadcast fielding questions from critical viewers
Viewer comment: "Do you really think he'll 'do a George Washington'?"
Scott Adams: I don't know that I could predict he'll do that. I do predict that we'll know there was massive fraud....
@V8POW Robin DiAngelo is an #ethnomasochist nobody who got a frivolous PhD in "multicultural studies" at age 47, and is known for her "notable idea" of White Fragility,
but she is (was) so obscure that her wiki was near deletion in both 2018 and 2019:
The WHITE FRAGILITY concept / phrase / meme / endzone-dance / soft-blood-libel.
2011: coined;
2010s: made rounds on academic-left-fringe;
2020: broke through with George Floyd riots.
Using Ngram and Google Trends data and more. Story in 21 parts (thread).
@V8POW (1.) The term "White Fragility" was independently 'coined'/used many times, and makes sporadic appearances in the 1990s/2000s in NGram but with all kinds of meanings.
One from 2004 refers to the 1994 OJ Simpson ex-wife murder but not related to the late 2010s/2020 meaning:
"Donald Trump is an absolute disaster. His presidency is a disaster. He's worse than nothing. He's totally betrayed his base." -- #EricStriker, Aug, 9, 2019
"Tulsi Gabbard is pretty solid, but the Jewish groups are going after her." -- #EricStriker, Aug. 9, 2019
"Kamala Harris: The point of running a Black candidate is to get Black votes, and they hate her. She's definitely a neoliberal...talks very little about health care or economic issues that would even get her White working-class votes. The Democrats have totally abandoned that."
