You'll Never Guess The Theme Of Tucker's New Twitter Show

In his very first ever Twitter "show," (yeah) Tucker Carlson wasted no time climbing on Vladimir Putin's lap.

In case you missed it, the Kakhovka Dam, which sits in a part of Russia-controlled Ukraine, was destroyed Monday night. With each side blaming the other and no clear answer at hand, Tucker Carlson released a “Tucker on Twitter” show that could have been scripted by Russia’s state media. Surely, they’ll eat it up.

Whoever destroyed the dam, it’s a horrible tragedy for thousands of people on both sides. Villages were flooded, crops endangered, drinking water threatened and both sides “scrambled to evacuate residents,” AP reported. “It was not possible to reconcile the conflicting claims.”

But Carlson didn’t care about the suffering of thousands. He was too busy hating on America and providing propaganda to Russia. On a Twitter video "program."

“Blowing up the dam may be bad for Ukraine but it hurts Russia more. And for precisely that reason, the Ukranian government has considered destroying it,” Carlson said. He was referring to a December Washington Post article in which a Ukrainian general had fired rockets at the flood gate as a test strike. Carlson forgot to mention that The Post also reported that the plan was to see if “water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood nearby villages.”

That was all Carlson needed to conclude that “really, once the facts start coming, it becomes much less of a mystery what might have happened to the dam. Any fair person would conclude that the Ukrainians probably blew it up. Just as you would assume they blew up Nord Stream, the Russian natural gas pipeline last fall.”

Really? I distinctly recall Carlson blaming the U.S. for that.

Meanwhile, Carlson left out the fact that engineering and munitions experts told The New York Times that a "deliberate explosion inside the Kakhovka dam" was the most likely cause of its collapse. Since Russia controls the dam, they're the ones in the position to detonate explosions from within.

Carlson went on to attack the media for jumping to the conclusion that Russia blew up the dam. That was another lie. In addition to AP, The New York Times and The Washington Post stated very clearly that it’s not known who is responsible for the dam’s destruction. Yet, he claimed that nobody covering the story “seemed to entertain even the possibility it could have been Ukrainians who did it.” As if he showed anything like an open mind on the subject.

Carlson also attacked “sweaty and rat-like” Ukrainian president and “oligarch” Volodymyr Zelensky, also a “shifty, dead-eyed Ukrainian” according to Carlson, who is “uniquely incapable of blowing up a dam.”

Wait, didn't Carlson just say that Ukraine, presumably under Zelensky's leadership, had blown up the dam? I'm confused. But nobody listens to Carlson for truth, logic or consistency.

Also smeared was Sen. Lindsey Graham (coincidentally another enemy of Russia) with a misleadingly edited clip Carlson falsely claimed showed Graham and Zelenskyy spending “a lot of time talking about killing people and laughing.” But you know who has really spent a lot of time glorifying murder on prime time? Yep, it’s Tuckums.

“Secrecy is a powerful tool of control,” Carlson said. He should know. He kept secret from his viewers that he knew Fox’s claims about a stolen 2020 election were false and that he hates Donald Trump. He also wanted those who told the truth to be fired, all for the sake of his ratings and his wallet.

Tucker Carlson is a horrible American and even worse person.
