EU Globalists Call for Travel Ban Against Tucker Carlson for Daring to Interview Putin
2024-02-08
[Gateway] The Gateway Pundit reported that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson traveled to Moscow to interview Vladimir Putin.

Rabidly pro-Ukraine shills and globalists are furious that Carlson is once again pushing back against the required narratives and letting people make up their own minds.

Now, anti-free speech globalists at the European Union are said to be considering a travel ban for Carlson over the interview, which will air on Thursday night.

Carlson explained his motive for interviewing Putin in a video statement on Tuesday, saying, "Most Americans have no idea why Putin invaded Ukraine or what his goals are now."

"We are not here because we love Vladimir Putin....We are not encouraging you to agree with what Putin may say in this interview, but we are urging you to watch it. You should know as much as you can."

#10  The greatest names in American journalism were deliriously happy to interview Stalin.

And Walter Duranty won a Pulitzer Prize for one.

There are two kinds of countries in the world - those who have landed men on the Moon, and those who use the metric system.

#8  Raiders and Chiefs have never liked each other but I never liked the 49ers either. In fact, ever since that take a knee business, I've pretty much given up on the NFL. I would say I have no dog in this fight but I grow weary of Taylor Swift.

#7  I've been convinced by the usual suspects to check it out, but if that is transcript, now I'm in.

'Because if we called it three tenths meter ball, we'd never have made it to the moon.'

*bit off topic
Raiders Fan: I don't care who the Chiefs play, I want them to lose so bad Taylor Swift gets plastered and throws up over the VIP balcony.

Chiefs Fan: I'd take that loss.

#6  "TUCKER: What do you think of American football?

PUTIN: It’s an interesting sport. But why do you call it football when the ball is almost always played with the hands? It also seems needlessly violent at times.

TUCKER: That’s true. Will you be watching?

PUTIN: The game will not be shown in Russia.

TUCKER: So you won’t get to see Taylor Swift either then?

PUTIN: No. We have been given a reprieve."

#5  All this angst from the same people who constantly tell us that worrying about privacy comes down to "If you aren't doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about."

Hmmmmm...

#1  Last Refuge - Tucker Carlson Interview with Vladimir Putin Scheduled to Broadcast Tonight, 6pm

This is likely to be a very interesting interview for multiple reasons. The “western world” has not heard much unfiltered or unscripted news about Russian President Vladimir Putin for several years, essentially since the sanctions were imposed in the aftermath of Russia’s entry into Ukraine and the subsequent war.The backlash against Tucker Carlson has been extreme ever since his entry into Russia and visibility in Moscow was noticed. President Putin having the ability to speak directly to a western audience is not something any of the western government officials are comfortable with.
