Tucker's Journey
It seems a fortunate coincidence that Tucker Carlson is in Russia—reportedly to interview President Vladimir Putin—at the same time that were taking a look back in history at the remoter origins of the current Neocon war on Russia: The previous Neocon war on Serbia. It seems ordinary Russians are delighted at the opportunity, as they see it, to have their side of the story heard in the West. They appear to trust Tucker to be objective. Sadly, Elon Musk wouldn’t let me embed this video, but do follow the link—the video isn’t long:

Interesting how well informed and well spoken ordinary Russians come across.

Predictably, Neocons aren’t as thrilled. Again, this fits in superbly well with the Rumble video:

Barring an American journalist from returning to the US for the crime of interviewing a state leader?
- Because the role of the media now is to ensure only one perspective is permitted... a cartoonish conflict between good and evil to criminalise diplomacy & make war virtuous.

Perhaps we need a total and complete shutdown of Tucker Carlson re-entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

Kristol, of course, is the Neocon who famously endorsed the idea of replacing lazy ass Americans who don’t live on the coasts with … migrants? So why not start with Tucker? Because we know what the real problem is, in Neocon eyes.
One has to wonder how much of a democracy we are when a journalist of one country can't visit another country that we are not at war with (at least officially) to interview its leader.
Obviously the Neocon's don't want Putin's side of the story shared pervasively in the U.S. That might cause unrest, chaos, and loss of control. Tee hee.
