    Tucker Carlson Leaving Fox News

    Each one of us could (or should be able to) conjure up hypothetical scenarios where Carlson being hit with legal consequences would be justified or unjustified in accordance with what he hypothetically did or didn't do. It's not unimaginable that conducting a slapfight between two competing...

    Tucker Carlson Leaving Fox News

    Everyone knows that the European Polish theater kicked off when Poland invaded Poland, but a surprisingly small fraction of the public has any idea that Poland also invaded Poland from the east.

    Tucker Carlson Leaving Fox News

    It's really not, though. Economically or conventionally, China would spank Russia. (In the past one might have been able to argue that Russia had a similar degree (but not kind) of economic leverage over the west, but that's not true anymore if it ever was.) In a no-holds-barred race to rule...

    Tucker Carlson Leaving Fox News

    I didn't expect to see the woke/broke meme applied to Fox News, but here we are. I've only heard a little bit about him. I might be misremembering, but I think he got extremely rich as a financial guy (insurance, after watching the video) and decided he wanted to devote his time and fortune to...
