Fox News Contributors Call It Quits Over Tucker Carlson’s Jan. 6 Propaganda

A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things.

Jonah Goldberg is a shameless right wing mouthpiece. He’s not stupid, and he knows that the endless stream of pseudo-intellectual drivel emanating from his pie hole is bullshit.

I don’t understand how such people live with themselves.

I read some of the RS article. Funny how most of those folks don’t want to comment now on their behavior then, other than to say the article includes untruths. :thinking:

Uh…YEAH …
BEGINING WITH THE “PRE-GAMING” going on in all of those huge white party tents at the White House for all the Trump family and administrators and rally speakers … where they were all seen on video coverage whooping it up and dancing an singing to “Gloria” … and smack talking about what a kick-ass sensation they were going to visit upon Congress & the Capitol.

Hell it was on the TV!
