Tucker: Colin Powell and the hypocrisy of the Left

Colin Powell didn’t grow up in a country like this, and you don’t want your children to.

Tucker takes a look at the life of Colin Powell and the shared ideals that once unified our nation, now divided over vaccine mandates. Highlights include:

“General Colin Powell died today at the age of 84. What a life that was.”

“In his later years, Powell became enmeshed in partisan politics, younger people may remember him for that, but for most of his life, he was much bigger than mere politics. If you’re old enough to recall the first Gulf War, you know that Colin Powell was one of the last public officials that most officials believed in.”

“Powell’s life, his stories, he would confirm everything that was good about this country.”

“Powell’s success meant that our system worked. Our system was meritocratic at the time. It elevated the best. Thirty years ago, our meritocracy was the country’s unifying principal. All Americans were proud of it. Colin Powell embodied it.”

“A lot has changed in the years since, and that’s one of the reasons that Colin Powell’s death tonight was so poignant.”

“Former CDC director Robert Redfield announced just today that about 40% of all recent covid deaths, in the state of Maryland, for example, are among those who have had both shots.”

“So, what does that tell you exactly?”

“Well, it tells you you’ve been lied to. Vaccines may be highly useful for some people, but across the population they do not solve covid. That’s not speculation, it is an observable fact.”

“From the very beginning, demagogues like Joe Biden and many others have used this virus as a hammer to smash the bonds that connect Americans to one another. During last year’s presidential campaign, Joe Biden repeatedly and always with a straight face told us that every single American who died from covid died because of Donald Trump’s negligence. Just look at the data, Biden said.”

“But there were no data.”

“That was false, and yet no public health official contradicted Joe Biden. Now Biden is telling us that the only reason people are still dying is because stubborn, mostly working-glass Americans won’t submit to his shot.”

“’It’s a patriotic duty to follow my instructions which are completely disconnected from any actual science or medical guidance.'”

“There’s no evidence that works, there never has been any evidence that works, and yet Joe Biden just told you if you don’t do what he says, you’re a bad American. Okay, he must really mean it — does he? Well, let’s see. This weekend Joe Biden and his wife strolled through an upscale restaurant in Washington without wearing masks … why? Because masks are for servants.”

At the most basic level, the news you consume is a lie, a lie of the stealthiest and most insidious kind. Facts have been withheld on purpose, along with proportion and perspective. You are being manipulated.

Tucker again lays into the media propaganda machine as he announces he’s taking the show to Twitter. Highlights include:

“You often hear people say that news is full of lies, but most of the time, that’s not exactly right. Much of what you see on television or read in the New York Times is, in fact, true in the ‘literal’ sense, it could pass one of the media’s own ‘fact checks.’ Lawyers would be willing to sign off on it, in fact they may have. But that doesn’t make it true. It’s not true.”

“At the most basic level, the news you consume is a lie, a lie of the stealthiest and most insidious kind. Facts have been withheld on purpose, along with proportion and perspective. You are being manipulated.”

“The best you can hope for in the news business at this point is the freedom to tell the fullest truth that you can, but there are always limits, and you know that if you bump up against those limits often enough, you will be fired for it. That’s not a guess, it’s guaranteed. Every person who works in the English language media understands that. The rule of what you can’t say defines everything. It’s filthy, really, and it’s utterly corrupting.”

“For the most part, the news that you see analyzed on Twitter comes from media organizations that are themselves thinly disguised propaganda outlets. You see it on cable news, you talk about it on Twitter. The result may feel like a debate, but actually the gatekeepers are still in charge. We think that’s a bad system. We know exactly how it works, and we’re sick of it.”

Tucker: See you soon

When honest people say what’s true calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who’ve been trying to silence them shrink.

Oh gosh, I’m using Twitter. Tucker dropped a video today on his Twitter account, again commenting on the current state of US media and finishing with a hopeful “See you soon.” Highlights include:

“One of the first things you realize when you step outside the noise for a few days is how many genuinely nice people there are in this country, kind and decent people, people who really care about what’s true, and a bunch of hilarious people also, a lot of those, it’s gotta be the majority of the population, even now, so that’s heartening. The other thing you notice when you take a little time off is how unbelievably stupid most of the debates you see on television are…”

“Both political parties and their donors have reached consensus on what benefits them and they actively collude to shut down any conversation about it. Suddenly, the United States looks very much like a one party state. That’s a depressing realization, but it’s not permanent. Our current orthodoxies won’t last. They’re brain dead.”

“This moment is too inherently ridiculous to continue, and so it won’t. The people in charge know this, that’s why they’re hysterical and aggressive. They’re afraid. They’ve given up persuasion, they’re resorting to force. But it won’t work. When honest people say what’s true calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who’ve been trying to silence them shrink, and they become weaker. That’s the iron law of the universe, true things prevail.”
