A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo. Why Was Tucker Canned Now? I’m sorry to disappoint, but there was no overnight reporting that fully explained the mystery of Tucker Carlson’s firing…
One thing I feel fairly confident saying is that much to our disappointment, FOX isn’t going to change. They have for them a winning formula and they’ll find another nasty man to do the job.
Poor confusion-faced Tucker
That silver spoon fucker,
Drives Bentleys while blaming elites.
He found himself fired
Spends his time, now retired,
With his tiny jewels tanned like 2 beets.
And here I thought the DeSantis clip was a fake. If it’s real, it’s one for the ages. Not only that, but it will end any thoughts he has of running for POTUS because all the mockery it’ll receive from us woke folks.
I’m sure that unrealized 5-year contract would have been sweet. Out of respect, let’s all salute Tucker Carlson with a musical number.
Why? Who cares as long as it starts a trend (which of course I seriously doubt).
I’m loving how Joe Biden showed the Toddler in his video, because she is the Trump Republican Party. That woman is exactly the female Donald J Trump, and they both turn off many Independents.
Here is the response from the GOP and they are using AI (artificial intelligence) for their ad. The funny part of the sad video is that they acknowledge that Joe Biden won the 2020 election.
- Donald Trump and MAGA World were reportedly “stunned” by the news.
Despite several second-hand comments in the NYT article about what Trump ‘thought’ about the situation-- the reality is there were NO direct quotes or ‘truths’ posted from that loudmouth yesterday.
That seems, to me, an impossiblity.
A perfect non-storm.
Leads me to believe–
Trump was probably central to Carlson’s firing.
Likely dropped reputation damaging kompromat-- as revenge for Fox settling with Dominion after Trump explicitly cheerleading them to go to trial.
Trump’s Big Lie smashed into 787 million tiny shards.
This lines up with his MO.
Compulsive in wreaking revenge when wronged or attacked.

How fast can DeSantis foes get Ron bobbleheads to market?
And I know this isn’t an acceptable “woke” perspective, but man that man’s voice is annoying.
I’ve watched that DeSantis video 5 times now, and my initial reaction is still, ‘that can’t be real; he couldn’t have actually made those expressions!’
What a knucklehead! I hope there will be some creative ads cut using that video if he eventually does declare
Oh, they’ll be shipping them out soon and we will know that, when they’re mounted in the dashboards of those MAGA trucks. I’m betting the Trump campaign will be the first one to do it.
Simon goes up to the window and paws at it, as if trying to dig through the glass. The squirrels are not the least bit perturbed…
ER is the Latvian Foreign Minister.
Dear god. It’s worth clicking to watch that vid, folks. If there was any justice in the world (there ain’t), this would be his “WOOOOOOOO” moment.
As a self-proclaimed ‘Trump channeler’, I will give you his electoral strategy. He won’t run against President Biden: he knows he has no effective attacks against him. Instead, he will target Kamala. He will say, ‘You suckers might like ‘Sleepy Joe’, but I gotta tell you that he is no longer there! His mind is gone and he is being controlled by the Deep State, radical leftist Dems, Reptillians (or all of the above! :)). The Dems are trying to pull a ‘bait and switch’ on you and use Joe as a facade to pull Krazy Kamala (That Black woman…) in the Oval office’.
I’m more than half serious, I expect the Trump campaign to mainly run against KH. I hope the Biden campaign team is prepared.
