Okay, let me tell you what I'm doing this.
It is April the 24th on Monday, about 1230, and the news has been breaking that Tucker Carlson is gone.
Not to mention Don Lemon.
Who?
Don Lemon.
Who?
Don Lemon.
The guy who thought there were black holes that were destroying airplanes.
Remember that?
Don Lemon.
Ah, forget it.
Tucker Carlson is gone and nobody knows why.
Actually, he was bounced Friday, given a copy of the home game.
And now here we are.
So what does this mean?
What does this mean?
Now let me give you a couple of ideas here and let's go through this very carefully.
First of all, sit back, relax, and take it easy.
Number one.
Look at the reaction you have.
Look at the reaction how people like us have.
Well, maybe like you.
This is like Trump and Bernie Sanders and the death of a pet and a relative, somebody you knew, 8 o 'clock.
You're going to miss that guy, at least on Fox.
The Amadeus laugh.
Remember that?
That laugh.
That weird, high-pitched cackle scream.
I'm going to miss when the prompter froze.
That was beautiful, when the prompter froze.
What was that all about?
That's what I'm going to miss.
I'm going to also miss the fact that he was one of the more unique characters at Fox News.
And that very well could have been the problem.
That very well could have been the problem.
Look who he had on.
Elon Musk.
Bobby Kennedy Jr.
He was into vaccine talking, UFO talks.
Plus, there was the Dominion.
People are saying right now, it was the Dominion.
It was the Dominion.
$787 million.
$787 million in payout.
And somebody says, oh, one more thing.
We'll let you get off for $787 million.
But you've got to get rid of Tucker Carlson.
Oh, and Bongino.
I don't think so.
With all due respect, Bongino, Bongiorno, Bon Jovi, whatever.
No.
No.
Stop it.
Why?
If you read the text messages, he probably was one of the loudest and most vociferous against pursuing these claims online on whatever it is because of the fact that they were he thought they were specious.
He thought it was not.
He thought it was strange.
He thought it was weird.
He thought it was whatever.
Do you see this?
Are you aware of this?
He thought it was wrong.
He didn't like Trump and never wanted to Trump.
So it's interesting.
So Dominion wanted to get rid of him?
But if anybody, there were others who should...
And I'm not going to go through the list.
I'll let you figure that one out.
I don't think anybody should be fired for an opinion.
That's me.
This is America, last time I checked.
But this is fascinating.
And also Don Lemon, who?
Don Lemon.
Who?
Tucker Carlson will never be able to appreciate there is only one Fox News.
There is one Fox News.
That's it.
One who has the money.
The money.
Fox News has the money.
Fox News is...
They had eight...
Was it $8 billion in cash on hand?
There's never...
CNN is...
I don't even know what CNN...
I don't even know what this is.
Poor Chris Lichty's got Charles Barkley and Rula Lenska.
What the hell?
I don't know where that's going.
This was it!
And something has been happening.
I and others, I'm not going to mention their name, have noticed that the Fox News This website has become rather bereft of hard-hitting stuff.
It's more and more fluffy.
Look at this gray gut bucket, gut felt, gut wrenchy, whatever.
This kind of a light, animated, let's mock and let's hide behind...
The lampoon side of it?
Let's take some hard currency, hard scrabble political talk stuff and hide it behind the whatever?
Huh?
Could that be it?
We don't know.
Watch the murmurations.
Watch the crowds.
Watch everybody now come out of the woodwork with all kinds of reasons and this is this and I miss them.
But this, you must understand, in the world of this Tight-fisted, tight-reined, and I can't believe they kept it quiet for this long, but in this kind of a familial world that we live in, this, this is something that is just.
And we're going to be finding out more about this.
But I think In my opinion, the timing regarding Dominion, that was it.
Not that he was responsible.
Not that Tucker was part of it.
But here's a hypothesis.
Throwing this out there, spitballing as they say.
Lachlan and James or whoever the son is, they're going to get with their wives who...
Reportedly, again, you hear the report, weren't exactly thrilled with the lineup, but nonetheless, you have Rupert kind of backing off a little bit, wanting to turn over the Fox News, this mega property.
Maybe saw the writing on the wall, maybe realized, who knows?
Maybe there was a sense of embarrassment.
You know, Murdoch has been always reputed to be, allegedly, a little quick on the settlement gun.
A little quick.
A little too quick.
I don't know.
I don't know about that.
But what I do know, what I do know, and what's even more important, is simply this.
There is something that is unmistakable as to the timing.
Dominion was the death knell of a lot of things.
Not just this, but even New York Times against Sullivan, malice, public figure, the embarrassment, all of these aspects, all of these things, all of these factors together, working together.
But why Tucker Crossing?
Look who he had on Orban.
I'm going to say this again.
Building up.
He was far too, dare I say, of an outlier for Fox News standards.
Fox News regular standards.
Too much of the don't look at me, I'm over here.
I'm into, again, I'm saying UFOs.
Not that UFOs are a problem, but basically saying I'm...
Not a part.
I'm a cut above you.
And I'm going to say something even more.
As an observer, in my opinion, I'm smarter than you.
I'm more elite.
A bit of an elitist.
I'm far more...
I'm a greater thinker.
I write better.
Better prose.
Better quips.
Better digs.
Better...
I'm more...
I'm more eloquent.
I'm more erudite.
I'm just more.
And when you, remember, an explosion starts off with the most insignificant of little pops, little clicks and noises.
They don't even have a sound.
But when they are put together in this chain reaction, kaboom!
Kaboom!
My friend, remember this day.
Not because of Tucker Carlson.
Not because of that per se.
But something even more.
It is a change in the direction, the severity, the solemnity, the gravity, the power.
The poignancy, the nuclear magnitude of what this, not just Fox, but what cable news, traditional, dare I say, sock puppet, mainstream media, heritage media are.
This is the end of that.
This is the end.
What is next?
This.
This.
What you're seeing right now.
This.
Streaming, citizen, civilian, and alternative media that will get bolder and better and more incredible as the days go on.
Remember this day, my friends.
This is the day that that music died and a new song begins.
Please like this video, this thing.
