Ex-Fox News host spotted in Moscow, sparking speculation as to who he is there to see
American journalist Tucker Carlson is in Moscow, and faux Republicans are losing their collective minds over the chance he’s there to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Footage over the weekend showed Carlson talking to a local Russian man and saying, “We’ll see,” when asked if he’s in the country to interview Putin.

In response to the potential Carlson is interviewing Putin, ex-Illinois Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger – now a CNN contributor – called the reporter a “traitor.”

Human Events Senior Editor Jack Posobiec pointed out the hypocrisy of Tucker being called a “traitor” by the political party openly allowing the invasion of America’s southern border.
“Tucker is a *traitor* for interviewing a world leader but Senators who support an invasion of our country are bipartisan statesmen! Am I doing this right?” he wrote.

Globalist never-Trump RINO Bill Kristol wrote on social media Saturday, “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.”

GOP Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said, “The Tucker Carlson meltdown is here. These people hate free speech and free press. Bill Kristol says stop Tucker from coming back to the U.S. yet literally anyone in the world can enter through our wide open out of control border.”
She then joked that Tucker “can come back through Mexico.”

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stated, “Tucker Carlson has every right to interview Putin,” adding, “We need more transparency instead of less. It used to be understood journalists would interview world leaders, even those with whom we were at war.”
The legacy media is in shambles because we’ve caught onto their lies and propaganda. Tucker Carlson has every right to interview Putin.

Legendary actor James Woods noted legacy media is freaked out about Carlson potentially interviewing Putin, writing, “In the midst of these troubled times I certainly want to hear what Putin has to say. It’s impossible to get any insight from the lapdogs masquerading as ‘news’ these days. Thank God we still have real journalists like Tucker Carlson, interested in the actual news of the day.”
The legacy media have their panties in a twist over Tucker Carlson.
Well, why aren’t THEY interviewing Putin? They fawn over idiot Joe Biden. Hell, we already know what he’s going to say. We want to know what the guy who has his finger on the OTHER nuclear button has to say.
