The Tucker Carlson - Vladmir Putin interview, tl;dr: Tucker: You said that you were acting because you had come to the conclusion that the United States through NATO might initiate surprise attack on your country.

Putin: [Sigh.] It’s not that the United States was going to launch a surprise strike on Russia. I didn’t say that. Image

Tucker Carlson, whose own lawyers in defense of him said no reasonable viewer would take him seriously, from his balcony box at the Bolshoi theatre before his private audience with Vladimir Putin:

Why are there no other real journalists here? 🤡 2000:

February 1: Vladimir Yatsina, a photocorrespondent with ITAR-TASS, killed.

February 10: Ludmila Zamana from Samara killed.

March 9: Artyom Borovik, director and journalist for Sovershenno sekretno periodical and publishing house, killed.

Since Republicans keep whitewashing corrupt Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin in an attempt to find dirt on Joe Biden, let's repeat some facts. The basis for the Republican spin is that then-vice president Joe Biden in December 2015 warned Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko that unless he fired Shokin, the Obama administration was prepared to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees.

The Russian propagandist "Donbass Devushka" from Donbass was in reality a military vet from New Jersey receiving money from pro-Trump sources. There is a Russian fifth column in the U.S. denigrating all things American turning patriots to traitors.
theins.ru/antifake/261013 "By the summer of 2022, despite the fact that her audience numbered only tens of thousands of people, she started hosting a podcast in which the guests were American propagandists Jackson Hinkle, Scott Ritter, Garland Nixon and Russian state media journalist Fiorella Izabel."

Since presumably astute people like Elon Musk are so easily duped by Tucker Carlson's inaccurate portrayal of January 6, here are some facts from Qanon Shaman Jacob Chansley's sentencing memo.
In the weeks leading up to January 6, Chansley used his social media presence to spread hateful rhetoric.

"We shall have no real hope to survive the enemies arrayed against us until we hang the traitors lurking among us," Chansley wrote on Facebook November 19, 2020.

Whenever scammers call me, I want to see how long I can get them to go along with nonsense. Today, an unknown number called me.

«Sir, this is from Microsoft. I'm calling to tell you there is something wrong with your computer. I will help you fix it.» «There's something wrong with my computer?»

«Yes.»

«I knew it!»

The nazi Nick Fuentes attended a private dinner with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. But Fuentes was not invited, Trump insisted, he snook in with invited anti-semite Ye. He would never invite a nazi, Trump said.

I like Hitler, Ye later proclaimed on the Alex Jones show. You're not a nazi, you don't deserve to be demonized, Alex Jones, famous for demonizing parents of dead children, said in a rare outbreak of empathy.

Well.. said Ye, declaring his love for nazis, and especially Hitler, who he kindly remembered as the inventor of the microphone.

"They tried to hunt down the Speaker of the House. They built a gallows and chanted about murdering the vice president.

They did this because they had been fed wild falsehoods by the most powerful man on Earth – because he was angry he'd lost an election" - Mitch McConnell. "Former President Trump's actions preceding the riot were a disgraceful dereliction of duty."

About that burning Bible in Portland. The main source of the images for the burning Bible is Ruptly, owned by ANO TV-Novosti, a Russian government-funded organisation which also owns RT (Russia Today).

ANO TV-Novosti is listed as a core organization of strategic importance for Russia.

@realDonaldTrump No one spied on his campaign. They monitored the calls of foreign spies, and for some reason, Trump campaign members kept popping up in them. @realDonaldTrump Senate Judiciary Committee under Republican control found that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump get elected.

Timeline of Trump's pandemic response:

In May 2018, Trump ordered the NSC’s global health security unit shut down. In April 2018, Trump fired the head of the DHS epidemic team. Neither team was rebuilt.

The number of countries the CDC was working in was reduced from 49 to 10. Trump on January 22, 2020: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

@realDonaldTrump The call was so perfect, he locked it down with the highest classification. The witnesses were so unambiguous, he ordered them not to testify. The exoneration in a Republican controlled Senate is so certain, he asks for no trial.
@realDonaldTrump Claimed he was above the law, then complained about no due process. Claimed witnesses exonerated him, then ordered them not to testify. Complained about his lawyers not participating, then ordered them not to participate.

@realDonaldTrump If it was a perfect call, why remove the transcript and lock it down on a server reserved for the highest classified information? @realDonaldTrump If it was a perfect call, why order everyone on it not to testify?

@RudyGiuliani @LindseyGrahamSC @realDonaldTrump The identity of the "former United States Attorney" who Giuliani "will be willing to give" us, is clearly fellow conspiracy nut Joe diGenova.
@RudyGiuliani @LindseyGrahamSC @realDonaldTrump Joe diGenova is a proponent of the conspiracy theory that George Soros controls the United States State Department and the FBI.

@realDonaldTrump Sondland spent 5 hours authoring this lawyery answer to a text message. Congress should get to ask him who he talked before sending his reply. @realDonaldTrump Gordon Sondland, the US ambassador to the European Union whose only qualification for the post was a $1 million donation to Trump's inauguration, was "fighting corruption" in Ukraine?

@realDonaldTrump @guypbenson @FoxNews By February 2016, internal IRA documents referred to support for the Trump campaign and opposition to candidate Clinton. (..) Main idea: Use any opportunity to criticize Clinton and the rest (except Sanders and Trump - we support them). – Mueller report, vol I, page 23. @realDonaldTrump @guypbenson @FoxNews From June 2016 until the end of the presidential campaign, almost all of the U.S. rallies organized by the IRA focused on the U.S. election, often promoting the Trump Campaign and opposing the Clinton Campaign. – Mueller report, vol I, page 31.
