Tucker Carlson's Putin interview

Carlson has a long history of cheerleading Putin's authoritarianism to his right-wing, American audience. [Courier]( Friend, Tonight, Tucker Carlson will air an exclusive interview with Vladimir Putin. If you think the interview will be hard-hitting, think again. From his time at Fox News to his new show on "X," Carlson has a long history of cheerleading Putin's authoritarianism to his right-wing, American audience. That includes arguing that the U.S. should support Russia's invasion of Ukraine and labeling President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a dictator. It also includes praising Russia's "traditional values." Those values include Russia's abuse of LGBTQ+ rights. Folks, Carlson may be what Putin and the KGB call a "useful idiot," but he's an idiot with a large platform to spread an alarming amount of Russian propaganda and misinformation. In fact, his “X” video announcing the Putin interview reached 100 million viewers in 24 hours.
