Tucker: Leaders refuse to acknowledge this is killing people

This was a result of bad policy, but the Biden administration isn’t simply ignoring the problem. They’re doing something even more destructive. They’re making it worse.

Tucker examines the opioid crisis in America and what the Biden administration is doing about it.

Highlights include:

“There’s a major financial incentive for the drug cartels which run huge parts of Mexico to produce this drug [fentanyl] and ship it north, and they are.”

“The Biden administration tells you that their border policy is ‘humane,’ but it’s just the opposite.”

“That policy has resulted in this country becoming flooded with fentanyl and it has resulted in the deaths of many thousands of American. The latest data from the CDC shows that drug overdose deaths in the United States hit a new high, almost 100,000 deaths of American citizens during the 12 month period that ended in March of this year.”

“There are a lot of reasons this is happening, but one of the main reasons in government policy, which has made the population sedentary and depressed.”

“Our government spent the last year, in case you haven’t noticed, locking everyone inside their homes.”

“This was a result of bad policy, but the Biden administration isn’t simply ignoring the problem.”

“They’re not apologizing for it, of course. They’re doing something even more destructive. They’re making it worse. They’re making it less possible for the US government to control what comes across our border.”

“None of this should really surprise us. Our leaders have spent the last year dividing Americans from each other. The result is loneliness. They closed the churches, they closed the gyms, they forced people to stay apart from their family, friends and the people they’re closest to.”

“The role of the federal government is not to protect economic migrants from Haiti, it is not to improve the living standards in other countries, it is not to pack the electorate on behalf of a specific political party. It has only one role: It is to protect American citizens, it is to serve their interests, but they’re not doing that.”

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.”
