We Must Secure Our Elections

The fact that large numbers of Americans believe democracy isn’t real may itself be the biggest threat to our democracy.

Tucker looks at how the Biden administration has suddenly changed their tune about how secure our elections are when they’re faced with probably defeat. Highlights include:

“A year and a half after January 6th, a date much in the news right now, it’s interesting that even the most basic questions about what actually happened that day remain mysteriously unanswered.”

“First and most obviously if you’ve seen the tape, why did law enforcement open the doors of the building and let protesters walk right into the capitol? That’s bizarre behavior no matter what they say … so why did it happen?”

“Tonight we want to get to the most basic question of all that you never hear asked, and it’s this. Why did so many Trump voters show up at the capitol in the first place?”

“Somehow no one’s ever really explained that. For a year and a half democrats have searched for a smoking gun that would prove some sort of pre-planned conspiracy to storm the capitol. They haven’t found that because there wasn’t a pre-planned conspiracy.”

“So, instead they’ve told us that the crowd converged on the capitol that day because their orange cult leader commanded them to. Now, Trump did encourage a protest that day, that is true, but it’s not a real explanation for what happened next.”

“Why’d they go to the capitol? Well, because they actually believed in democracy, and they believed their democracy had been taken from them. They were convinced that the presidential election was unfair, which it certainly was. Some of them believed the election had been rigged.”

“We’ll let others debate whether that’s true, but the fact is many that day believed it was true, and that itself is a huge problem for all of us going forward. The fact that large numbers of Americans believe democracy isn’t real may itself be the biggest threat to our democracy, because in order for our system to work, the population has to believe that it works.”

“You can’t just censor or arrest people for thinking the system is rigged, you have to show them the system isn’t rigged. That is your baseline obligation if you lead the country, and yet the Biden administration amazingly is doing just the opposite.”

“So, 2020 was the most secure election in American history, they tell us that endlessly, and you’re a nut, probably a criminal if you say otherwise. And they say that because Biden won.”

“But things are different now because the democratic party understands it will be severely punished, it will be spanked at the polls five months from now. So, because they know what the outcome is going to be, Joe Biden is now telling us that that election could ‘easily be illegitimate.'”

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.”

“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.”
