Kanye and Nick Fuentes are on the Alex Jones show and Kanye just said he sees "good things about Hitler" also. Because he invented highways and a microphone? "Every human being has value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler [...] also Hitler was born Christian." twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Kanye is doing a Netanyahu impression that is just an Elmo voice + antisemitic tropes

Tucker Carlson and his guest give an impassioned defense of Alex Jones.

Tucker: "Why would you hate Alex Jones? I've never understood that."
...
They're trying to "destroy him with lawsuits for giving his opinion" Alex Jones recently claimed that Tucker Carlson's production team filmed material for his "End of Men" special at his Texas property.

Mini thread on a really good example of how Tucker twists news stories to suit his narratives. Here he claims that undocumented immigrants are responsible for an influx of automatic weapons into the US. Tucker plays a clip of a horrifying shootout in Houston as an example. Here's the thing though. I can't find any evidence that the perpetrator, Deon Ledet, was an undocumented immigrant. abc13.com/deon-ledet-wil…

Part three of Tucker Carlson's January 6th special compares people imprisoned in the DC jail to the prisoners unlawfully detained and tortured in Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib. This series skims across valid points and intentionally faceplants into misdirection intended to terrify the audience.
Yes the cops killing people with impunity is bad, no Babbit's death is not the same as the President having drone strike assassination power.

Tucker is really just doing InfoWars style "they're coming for you, viewer" but with a bigger budget Tucker Carlson outright says that the people who went into the capitol on January 6 were "set up"

Wanna point out that this is not an educator organically advocating for Holocaust denial in the classroom, it's a direct response to the insane anti-CRT legislation passed by Republicans that is now requiring educators to think like this lest they be accused of lawbreaking. I think this quote summarizes it really well, how are teachers supposed to arbitrate what counts as an "opposing" perspective on social issues that meets the arbitrary requirements of a state legislature that isn't thinking about students but about winning bs culture war points.

Tucker Carlson's latest take on the Jan. 6th attack on the capitol is that it was actually an FBI false flag Tucker Carlson is heavily implying the FBI orchestrated the January 6th riot using the standard of proof you'd expect from Alex Jones.

Tucker is using dubious data from VAERS, an unverified database for "vaccine incident reports" that anyone can submit to, to claim the COVID-19 vaccine campaign is the deadliest vaccination campaign in US history. VAERS has this disclaimer on its website, which Tucker pretty much ignored

THREAD: Tucker Carlson is once again pushing the debunked conspiracy that COVID-19 was genetically engineered in a lab, and airing claims that the pandemic was intentionally released by China, using a dubiously souced "study" linked to Steve Bannon. On September 14th, Li-Meng Yan, a researcher who fled Hong Kong, posted a paper claiming that she and other researchers had found a way to recreate SARS-CoV-2 in a lab. The paper drew the interest of conservative media and Tucker Carlson. zenodo.org/record/4028830…

After giving the McCloskey’s the RNC celebrity treatment they basically have no choice. Right wing media has been hyping the possibility of “patriots” taking up arms and “defending themselves“ against protestors for weeks now, it was only a matter of time before people died and you can bet your ass they’ll blame everyone but the shooter.
