This is from the midnight re-airing. I lost track of time while playing a game the first time around.
It's the Bobulinski interview again. You know, the one some people here feel that Tucker didn't hammer down our throats hard enough or give enough of an explanation of what some relevant documents, I mean, a flash drive with a copy of some relevant documents that went missing for a short time were. Apparently it was part of a trap to out a spy? Or was it just bad luck? Rarely doesn't mean never, no one here should need reminding.
First up, Biden's picks for his hypothetical cabinet and their connections to conniving billionaires. Wherin Tucker transforms into a thinner and saner Glenn Beck missing his old TV and blackboard.
Horace Cooper decries how the left is now practicing discrimination in the name of fighing racism. Alleged progressives working to move society backwards.
Up next, eugenics, and abortion plays into eugenics. Tucker is still in prettier and saner version of Glenn Beck mode. Evita Duffy, whose sister has Down Syndrome, speaks out against abortion of children diagnosed prenatally with Down Syndrome among other conditions and ties it into how socialized medicine encourages it.
CNBC anchor spars with a guest over science and hypocrisy over virus-related restrictions. Tucker has snapped out of prettier and saner Glenn Beck mode.
Gavin Newsom oversteps his bounds as CA governor. Again. Another hard day at work, he would say (allegedly). Bascially can't leave your house at all unless you have a medical emergency or similar. Counties that don't enforce the new restrictions will have state funding witheld. Hollywood productions and cannabis shops are among the businesses exempt from virus-related restrictions.
Staten Island bar owner announces that he and his lawyer pleaded with the local government while temporarily closed, could not come to an agreement, and the bar will stay open as long as the owner isn't physically prevented from operating.
Finally, more on the fraud in GA (suitcases pulled out from under a table after observers and media were booted out) and Zuckerberg bribing government officials re:election management. Gabriel Sterling said of the suitcase incident, "Nothing to see here. Move along." Tucker asking all the good questions we already have the answers to while himself feigning ignorance.
Scott Walter discusses the Zuckerberg bribery and touches on the left's and the right's opinions on tech censorship.
My tangent: if repealing Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act would send Big Tech shaking in their boots, how come Big Tech isn't trying to gin up support among their users to protect Section 230?
The show ends with coverage of a train shunting attack. No, it wasn't the Proud Boys. It was left-wing terrorists who did it (two women), according to the DOJ.
Since there wasn't a live thread here for today, I figured my comments would need their own post.
This episode was mostly a recap of monolouges from months ago with a coulple guest appearances thrown in (those were likely replays, too). The only new stuff was how we still have Thanksgiving and it's always been important to us, so much so that people screech if you try to move the date of the holiday for a nice-sounding reason like FDR did (Congress stopped him).
Here are my responses to some questions Tucker asked during the episode:
"What can Republicans learn from this election?"
That the Democrats stopped at nothing to steal it, and many Republicans we thought were on our side really don't care. The monologue from June about the riots and virus response that followed, while full of good points, was not the answer. Someone on TD thought Hannity was trying to lure his remaining viewers into accepting that Trump lost and Biden won, and it sounded like Tucker might be trying to do that here.
"Have we made any progress on defending our borders and manufacturing our own drugs?"
Yes. However, that progress is rookie numbers, and much of that progress was only possible under the auspices of responding to the virus, e.g. chemical deal with Kodak, shutting down most international travel and immigration with it. We need to pump those numbers up! (the border defense and making our own meds, to be clear)
"What should we do next to get back to normal?" (To Alex Berenson)
Remove all goverment-impsed virus-related restrictions on business, public gatherings, etc. and put out PSAs for at least the next month that say that only people who have symptoms of a contagious illness and/or are in a demographic known to be at higher than average risk for serious illness or death from the virus need to stay away from other people or wear a mask if they must go out.
The sooner this happens, the better.
