Tucker Carlson interviews & ideologies

There has been quite a lot of meltdown in the Western media about the interview. One of those has been from CNN's Erin Burnett who said that Tucker wasn't a journalist and that he wouldn't be able to ask the hardball questions of Putin. She has deservedly been ridiculed on Twitter as her interview in 2023 was hardly hard hitting at least not in a question type way and one feels like vomiting as it has a cheap soft porn feel to it. Here is the Twitter clip:

It is a compilation so I looked to find the original interview to see if it was a misrepresentation of what was said. The compilation was real enough, so I then wondered what hard hitting questions did she ask. I downloaded the transcript of the interview and below is that transcript with her questions in bold. It is a computer generated transcript which is why it can be a little trying to read. Again, no need to read more than the bolded part. It is more than enough.

conversation with the president

Mr President is a great honor to be herewith youwe are here of course today in Odessaand across the Black Sea from where weare right now Crimea how does it feel tobe here on a beautiful day like thisand to look out and knowthat Crimeais thereyes I've been to the hospital todaywhere I saw our military the Navypersonnel Marines which have beeninjured and they all talk about Crimeaalso the doctors who save lives of theseguys and I congratulated the doctorswith the Ukrainian Navy day and allthese doctors are from sevastopoland when the occupation of Crimea andsevastopol happen they escape to theukrainian-controlled territoriesthey're all here I also visited theUkrainian Navy Institute which used tobe based in Crimea so everyone sharesthe same feeling of definite Victorydefinite return to CrimeaI will tell you not as a president butas a citizenI used to adore Crimea even before Ihave become a president of Ukraineevery year we visited Crimea with myfamily we cannot imagine Ukraine withoutCrimea and Val Crimea is under theRussian occupation it means only onething war is not over yetto be clear in Victory in peaceis there any scenario where Crimea isnot part of Ukraineit will not be Victory then because thisis what we're saying right in thebeginningeven before The full-scale Invasion weunderstood that it's purely a matter oftime when the contact line in dunbas andCrimea would turn into a warit could be anything it could have beenour deoccupation steps or it could havebeen a full-scale Invasion by theRussian Federation which has happenedthey have been planning to annihilate uscompletely straight from the start it'sa factthank God that now apart from ourselvesthe majority of the world believes ittoothat's why there cannot be any solutionwithout Crimea it could be the sameFrozen situation as in dumbass

I knowthe uscia chief Bill Burns has come andvisited you regularly he was hererecently what did you tell him aboutyour plans to take back territory andthe counter-offensiveto be honest with you I was surprised tosee the information in some media bothin the U.S and Ukrainian and Europeanmedia my communication with the CIAChief should always be behind the scenesand the media attention because wediscuss important things what Ukraineneeds and how Ukraine is prepared to actwe don't have any secrets from CIAbecause we have good relations and ourintelligence Services talk with eachotherthe situation is pretty straightforwardwe have good relations with the CIAChief and we are talkingI told them about all the importantthings related to the battlefield whichwe need

do you feelI know you've talked about somefrustration about the pace of thecounter-offensive how much pressure doyou feel from the United States fromother alliesto try to give them dates or timelinesof when gains may happenour slowed down counter-offensive ishappening due to certain difficulties inthe battlefield everything is heavilymined there I wanted ourcounter-offensive happening much earlierbecause everyone understood that if thecounter-offensive will be unfoldinglater then much bigger part of ourterritory will be mined thus we give ourenemy time and possibilities in order toplace more minds and prepare theirdefense linesall are commanders who I talk withconstantly we're discussing thissituationthe Russians have built three defenselines in some directionsI'm grateful to the U.S as the leadersof our support but I told them as wellas European leaders that we would liketo start our counter-offensive earlierand we will need all the weapons andmaterial for thatwhy simply because if we start leader itwill go slower and we will have lossesof lies because everything is heavilymined and we will have to go through itallthe main thing which gives me a positivesupport is that we move forward this isthe main signal of mewhen it comes to our partners I didn'tsee any pressure to start the counteroffense in some media I heard the noisesfrom this or that leader or therepresentatives that they expected arecounter-offensive happening much earlieryes I've heard all of that but webelieve in our victoryon the front lines I saw Ukrainianinfantry they were they were dealingwith the fields of Minds you know thatRussians would just throw them out noteven not even hiding themum they're dealing with the little tinytrip wires for grenades that they laceall the way through the forest you havehuman beings now going in to try to takea hundred feet 200 feet of land at atime

Mr Presidentyou know you recently said that you havedealt and I'll quote you the way the wayit quoted with different Putin's it's acompletely different set of traits indifferent periods now of course he'sfaced a rebellion an attempted coup fromevgeny pagosianhave you seen any changes in in how youthink he's acting in his behavior sincethe attempted coupyes we see the reaction after certainWagner steps we see Putin's reactionit's weak firstly we see he doesn'tcontrol everythingWagner is moving deep into Russia andtaking certain regions shows how easy itis to doPutin doesn't control the situation inthe regions he doesn't control thesecurity situation all of us understandthat his whole Army is in Ukrainealmost entire Army is therethat's why it's so easy for the Wagnertroops to March through Russia who couldhave stopped himwe understand that Putin doesn't controlthe regional policy and he doesn'tcontrol all those people in the regionsso all that vertical of power he used tohave just got crumbling downfurther down we see very interestinganalytics half of Russia supportedpregosian half of Russia supported Putinwe know from our intelligence reportsthat Kremlin was conducting all thosesurveys18 or 19 reasons of Russia firmlysupported pagosian's actions21 regions of Russia firmly supportingsome of the Russian regions were in TheBalancing in the meantime withoutknowing for sure who to supportwe all see this process that shows halfof the Russian population is in seriousdoubt all those stories that he controlseverything these are feeble stories nowso this is a different Putin and I don'tmean a different personthis is a different Putin when it comesto his power it's an old person not aperky personthis is someone who doesn't control whatis happeningwhen he is so weak now and he made hishistoric Mistake by invading Ukrainethis Invasion created all the restthe power of Wagnerprogosian's Fame uncontrolled situationin his own country this is what hisfull-scale invasion brought upon him

inthis moment when he is weak the worldneeds to put pressure on him but you'resaying half half of the Russian regionsdid not support Putin would supportpagosianso so does that mean there will beanother challenge to Putin's power Imean that's that's a dramatic splitI think that Putin will make attempt toconsolidate his Society he will makeeverything in order to break and nullifythe wagnerites fame and everything theywere doinghe will be distancing himself from allthat it will be communicatingextensively in order to unify thesociety this Society is Unifiedpay attention to this interestingexample after all these events where didPutin goI can tell you he rarely comes out tothe street we see him in his offices Etcbut we never see him out and about yeahwhere did he gohe leaves his bunker only when it'sextremely neededhe went to the town of Durbin in theDagestan Republic if I'm not mistakenthe stats show that Putin's popularityis the lowest in Dagestana lot of locals died whom he sent to theward to die and pagosian is very popularthereso he is behaving like a politicalanimalhe goes to Dagestan they filmed a stagevideo showing certain people applaudinghim in order to show this region as apro Putin onethey were surrounding him yes yes hejust goes to difficult regions andperforms his one-man show

One may wonder what Tucker Carlson can learn from such an experienced prostitute journalist and from her 'hardhitting' questions to Zelensky.
 
That tweet stated that it will be published today and not yesterday (US time). So it is still on time as of now. Also, the fact that Alex Jones retweeted it makes me believe that the time is probably correct since Alex might have corroborated it with Tucker as well.

Edit: If the timing of the tweet is correct, then Americans can watch it on the evening today around 18:00 local US time. Which means that people in Europe will have to wait until the next day to see it, unless they want to see it very late at night (around 24:00 - 02:00 European time).

Tuckers Network just confirmed that the Putin interview will be published at that mentioned time:

 
Plot twist #1: Fox News and CNN air the Putin interview hoping to replenish Zelensky's retirement fund.
Plot twist #2: Carlson visits Assange in London, releases two interviews on the same date.
Plot twist #3: Biden'merica bans Carlson from entering the country due to reasons of national security.
Plot twist #4: Carlson enters the US from Mexico, and legalizes a lot of illegal aliens by showing them the interviews.
Plot twist #5: Illegal aliens, now legal, massively vote for Trump.
Plot twist #6: Biden sees red as blue, claims victory.
Plot twist #7: A giant crack opens up Pelosi's bunker; Zuckerberg fixes the problem... in the Metaverse.
Plato twist #8: "Death is not the worst that can happen to men.”
 
This appeared on ZeroHedge yesterday - I wonder if this will be touched upon in the Carlson/Putin interview:

Medvedev Warns Russia Has 'No Choice' But To Unleash Nuclear 'Apocalypse' If Attacked By NATO
Not for the first time, former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev has warned that a direct war between Moscow forces and NATO would lead to nuclear apocalypse.
[...]
That's when he said that people in the West have to be told the blunt truth. Medvedev underscored that the Russian response to attack by NATO would without doubt be "asymmetrical". He explained:

"Since our military capabilities are incomparable, we will simply have no choice. The response will be asymmetrical. To protect the territorial integrity of our country, ballistic and cruise missiles with special warheads will be used... This will be the proverbial Apocalypse. The end of everything."
Is the timing significant that it appeared yesterday - WEDNESDAY, FEB 07, 2024 - 09:11 PM - and it wasn't the first time such a warning was articulated?

Guess we'll find out this evening when the interview of the year airs at 6 pm.
 
Medvedev Warns Russia Has 'No Choice' But To Unleash Nuclear 'Apocalypse' If Attacked By NATO
Reading the comments to this article and as often is the case, even more interesting and informative than the article. Besides info linked from various sources, there's this which I think is just as important for public notice:
A child is the reflection of the parents. A people is the reflection of their government. We know the US government consists of narcissistic sociopaths and psychopaths.

There are many studies out there on the number of narcissists in AmeriKa and that number is as many as 158,000,000.

There are studies on the personality disorder that have found narcissists to be possessed by demons.

It's almost impossible for a narcissist to become self-aware and take responsibility for their actions.

And we can see by the outrageous reactions to Tucker's Putin interview, "they" are exposing their true selves to the max for all to see!

If interested, here's Redacted's take on the "Interview"- "It really set their hair on fire" - and yes, they pointed out the Streisand effect all the over-the-top objections are having.
