2. Critical Race Theory will soon result in genocide
3. The NSA is spying on him
It's theoretically possible that the NSA is spying on Tucker Carlson but it's also the kind of claim that you can make and will never be disproven because the NSA is not going to release a statement saying "We are not spying on Tucker Carlson."
Carlson claims that to get to the bottom of it he FILED A FOIA REQUEST WITH THE NSA.
This is brilliant.
In order to get my next big scoop, I'm going to FOIA the NSA and just ask for all info about anyone interesting they've been spying on in the last few years.
Someone allegedly called up Tucker Carlson and read him a text that he sent. If that's true, it's possible it's evidence that the NSA is spying on him. Or it could just be that his phone was hacked. Which is more likely?

1. A lot of misinformation is floating around about the nature of the PA Supreme Court's decision on Cosby.
So I want to clarify a few issues.
Let's talk about EXACTLY WHY the court decided it had to invalidate Cosby's trial.
And why their rationale is very weak
2. First there are a lot of lawyers on Twitter saying the court found there was a type of "contract" between the DA (Castor) and Cosby where the DA promised he would never be prosecuted
The PA Supreme Court court did not find that
The court expressly says there was no contract
3. The court found that there was an UNCONDITIONAL PROMISE from the DA not to prosecute Cosby and that Cosby relied on that promise.
And that, despite the absence of an actual agreement, "fairness" requires that the court to honor this "promise"
1. The PA's Supreme Court decision to release Cosby based on a former prosecutor's "agreement" not to prosecute Cosby and instead grant him immunity from prosecution is not legally sound.
Here's why.
2. PA has a very specific process for being granted immunity from prosecution.
AND IT CANNOT BE GRANTED BY A PROSECUTOR.
Rather, a prosecutor has to ask a court to grant immunity
IN COSBY'S CASE THE PROSECUTOR NEVER ASKED
3. So we are basically going off of the former prosecutor's (and Cosby's) word that such an agreement existed. The record is shaky, but IT DOESN'T MATTER. The prosecutor has no power to immunize Cosby unilaterally
1. @DanCrenshawTX, who has spent years railing against "cancel culture," is calling for any athlete who expresses political views he disagrees with to be expelled from the U.S. Olympic Team
3. @DanCrenshawTX's call for Gwen Berry to be kicked off the Olympic team because she has different views on racial justice, shows that Crenshaw is not concerned about freedom of expression.
He's interested in "cancel culture" as a political cudgel
1. @MoBrooks appeared at the "Stop the Steal" rally on Jan 6 and told the crowd it was time to "kick some ass" and after the Capitol was attacked said "socialist democrats" owed him an apology
But Brooks still has the support of major defense contractors
