TUCKER BREAKS HIS SILENCE! · Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show!

• 0:00
  So after being abruptly fired from Fox News, Tucker Carlson has broken his silence,
• 0:06
  and he doesn't give away a lot. He doesn't give any clues as
• 0:09
  to what happened exactly, but he's in good spirits and he's making it pretty
• 0:13
  clear we can expect to see more from him. So let's take a quick
• 0:16
  look at this and then we can talk about all these stuff surrounding it.
• 0:20
  Good evening, It's Tucker Carlson. One of the first things you realize when
• 0:24
  you step outside the noise for a few days is how many genuinely nice people
• 0:28
  there are in this country, kind and decent people, people who really care
• 0:32
  about what's true, and a bunch of hilarious people. Also a lot of
• 0:37
  those. It's got to be the majority of the population even now, so
• 0:40
  that's heartening. The other thing you notice when you take a little time off
• 0:44
  is how unbelievably stupid most of the debates you see on television are. They're
• 0:49
  completely irrelevant, they mean nothing. In five years, we won't even remember
• 0:54
  that we had them, trust me as someone who's participated. And yet at
• 0:58
  the same time, and this is amazing thing. The undeniably big topics,
• 1:03
  the ones that will define our future get virtually no discussion at all. War,
• 1:07
  civil liberties, emerging science, demographic change, corporate power, natural resources.
• 1:15
  When was the last time you heard a legitimate debate about any of those
• 1:18
  issues. It's been a long time. Debates like that are not permitted in
• 1:23
  American media. Both political parties and their donors have reached consensus on what benefits
• 1:29
  them, and they actively collude to shut down any conversation about it. Suddenly,
• 1:34
  the United States looks very much like a one party state. That's a
• 1:38
  depressing realization, but it's not permanent. Our current orthodoxies won't last. Their
• 1:46
  brain dead, nobody actually believes them. Hardly anyone's life is improved by them.
• 1:52
  This moment is too inherently ridiculous to continue, and so it won't.
• 1:57
  The people in charge know this. That's why their hysterical and aggressive. They're
• 2:00
  afraid. They've given up persuasion. They're resorting to force, but it won't
• 2:06
  work. When honest people say what's true, calmly and without embarrassment, they
• 2:12
  become powerful. At the same time, the liars who've been trying to silence
• 2:15
  them shrink and they become weaker. That's the iron law of the universe,
• 2:21
  true things prevail. Where can you still find Americans saying true things? There
• 2:27
  aren't many places left, but there are some. And that's enough. As
• 2:30
  long as you can hear the words, there is hope. See you soon.
• 2:36
  So Tucker's obviously coming back and he's going to do something. And that
• 2:39
  thing, whatever it is, however it manifests itself, it sounds like he
• 2:44
  wants to raise the discourse on the big issues, you know, the existential
• 2:49
  issues like war for instance, civil liberties, immigration, These are things that
• 2:54
  really matter. And you know, it seems obvious that a big problem Fox
• 2:58
  News head with Tucker was he wasn't just a establishment robot, a Uni party
• 3:04
  robot when it came to the big issues. And he had at least former
• 3:08
  heroes of the left like Glenn Greenwald on to prove it, and to prove
• 3:13
  that people from different sides of the political spectrum can still have sensible conversations with
• 3:17
  each other and maybe even come to agree on things, things that are important
• 3:23
  like war, in censorship. And yeah, this doesn't seem like a guy
• 3:28
  who's upset about what's happened. He seems almost, I guess, maybe kind
• 3:31
  of relieve. Maybe it's cathartic for him to be free, because they'll probably
• 3:36
  end up being bigger than he was on Fox News now that he's freed of
• 3:39
  the corporate chains and shackles. But in any case, he didn't give us
• 3:44
  any clues to you know, exactly what happened. He didn't confirm anything.
• 3:47
  We can guess. Here's what tech Glenn Beck thinks about it. He gave
• 3:52
  a speech last week, last Friday, and Friday apparently is the night that
• 3:58
  they made the decision, and he gave a speech for the fiftieth anniversary of
• 4:01
  the Heritage Foundation, and he said this, it's completely obvious. And I
• 4:09
  think two things. One we should say that and stop engaging in these totally
• 4:16
  fraudulent debates where we are using the terms that we used in nineteen ninety one
• 4:21
  when I started at Heritage, as if maybe, you know, I could
• 4:25
  just win the debate if I marshaled more facts. I've tried. That doesn't
• 4:28
  work. And two, maybe we should all take just like ten minutes a
• 4:33
  day to say a prayer about it. I'm serious, like why not?
• 4:39
  And I'm saying that to you, not as some kind of evangelist. I'm
• 4:43
  literally saying that to you as an Episcopalian, the Samaritans of our time.
• 4:48
  I'm coming to you from the most humble and lowly theological position you can.
• 4:55
  I'm literally an Episcopalian, okay, And even I have concluded it might be
• 5:01
  worth taking just ten minutes out of your busy schedule to say a prayer for
• 5:04
  the future. And I hope you will. Okay. Now let me give
• 5:10
  you some context on this. He was talking about the difference of good and
• 5:14
  evil and you know marshaling, you know, facts to fight things like CRT
• 5:19
  and d EI, et cetera, et cetera. Now Rupert's son, Rupert
• 5:26
  Murdoch's son, is the one that made the decision to fire Carlson along with
• 5:32
  Suzanne Scott. This is this is something that bothers Rupert deeply, deeply bothers
• 5:42
  him. I was told not to use the word God on the air anymore.
• 5:47
  And I was like, wow, um okay, and they're like,
• 5:54
  you know, you got to stop using it. And three months go by
• 5:57
  and he comes back and he says, do you know how many times did
• 6:00
  you do you not remember when I said, don't talk about God all the
• 6:03
  time? And I said yes, And he said, do you know how
• 6:09
  many times you've said God on the air since that. I looked at him
• 6:14
  and I kind of laughed and I said, you counted, and he said,
• 6:16
  I can't remember the number, but it was like ninety one times.
• 6:19
  I'm like, huh, I'll stop it. Okay, Well I didn't.
• 6:25
  But that really bothered them. That really bothered them. So I mean,
• 6:30
  that's one possible thing, right, Can we confirm that? No, but
• 6:33
  that's a possible thing. And look, I'm not a religious man myself,
• 6:36
  but I gotta admit this old godlessness thing isn't going so great, is it.
• 6:43
  I Mean, I'm not calling for anybody to be turned into a pillar
• 6:46
  assault here or anything, but have you seen what Sam Smith's been up too?
• 6:50
  But in any case, I don't know if Glenn Beck's right or not,
• 6:53
  but there's one theory. And let's just end this off with the fact
• 6:56
  that I think Fox might be losing more than Tucker. In fact, I'm
• 7:00
  certain that Fox is losing more than Tucker. I don't think Tucker needs some
• 7:03
  I think Tucker can write his own check. Basically, I think he's so
• 7:08
  popular and I think he's going to become even more popular. Fox just lost
• 7:13
  eight hundred million in stock value after announcing that he left. And how is
• 7:17
  that going to get better? Because who are they going to replace him with?
• 7:20
  Because if they're planning to just replace him with another Hannity or another Ingram,
• 7:25
  I don't think that's gonna work. They're not going to bring in the
• 7:27
  independence and the young demographic. Tucker was the only guy who had any young
• 7:31
  demographic at all. And that's the cross Cable News, CNN, NBC,
• 7:36
  all of them. I think the average age of the CNN viewer is about
• 7:41
  eighty seven, so they don't have long anyway. I mean, if Fred
• 7:46
  Astare and Gene Kelly were resurrected and took on the main anchor spots for them,
• 7:50
  it still wouldn't matter. They might as well just pay fifty million dollars
• 7:54
  a year to Rachel Maddow because let's face it, the fate of cable news
• 7:58
  is sealed already. Streaming an independent journalism has reduced its power already, and
• 8:03
  that's only going to continue anyway. Please subscribe Blake and share Shark really helps
• 8:07
  me out. I thank you for that. I will see you next time.
