Tucker: Republicans Declare War on the 2nd Amendment

John Cornyn and Mitch McConnell’s gun confiscation isn’t just a betrayal of Republican voters. It’s a declaration of war against them.

Tucker looks at the latest gun control bill the Senate Republicans are supporting without reading. Highlights include:

“Yesterday, just a few hours after the text of this gun confiscation bill was released, the Senate voted on it, just a few hours. Why? Well, John Cornyn said there was simply no time to allow anyone to read the bill, even people voting on it, or to try to understand what was in it.”

“A reporter last night overheard John Cornyn, again a senator from Texas, a Republican, say this, and we’re quoting, ‘It’s only 80 pages long, how long do you need to read it?’”

“This is grotesque. Under ordinary circumstances you would just assume, as always, these people live in their own hermetically sealed world. They have no contact with reality, they have no idea how out of step they are. But given the context of this moment, you have to interpret it differently.”

“What you just saw was effectively a speech in support of Joe Biden by a leader in a party whose job it is to offer an alternative to Joe Biden.”

“We’re shoveling another $100 million to the FBI, the personal police department of Joe Biden, the people who saved his son from a drug charge. Then there’s nearly $1 billion in order to bribe the states to ‘implement and manage’ these so-called ‘red flag laws.’ Now, these laws allow authorities to seize firearms from people who have committed no crimes. That’s a violation of due process, it’s unconstitutional, but the Republican party is all for it.”

“Would any of these measures have stopped the mass shootings in Buffalo or Uvalde? No.”

“This bill is completely unconnected from what happened in Buffalo or Uvalde. This is merely Joe Biden’s agenda. Even Keven McCarthy of California has refused to support it. So here you have Mitch McConnell, the lead Republican in the Senate, partnering with Chuck Schumer, the lead Democrat in the Senate, picking John Cornyn to carry the message, and getting it done before anyone can even read the bill.”

“It’s not simply a betrayal of Republican voters. It’s much more. It’s a declaration of war against Republican voters, in fact against voters.”

Tucker: We’re Back.

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.”

“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.”
