Accusing Tucker Carlson of being paid
by Russia Today is a serious allegation
Canada's PM would be unlikely to make
w/out sufficient evidence. This comes a
month after DOJ indicted 2 RT employees
in a covert scheme to use conservative
US media figures to push out RT propaganda.
Michael Weiss:
The Prime Minister of Canada says under
oath that RT, which the U.S. State
Department alleges is engaged in
"information operations, covert influence,
and military procurement," is funding
Jordan Peterson and Tucker Carlson.
Dean Blundell:
Under oath, Trudeau says Russia (RT) is
funding disgraced Psychologist Jordan
Peterson.
Turns out Jordo’s 3 month Russian
sponsored Benzo rehab coma was
good for business.
News guard: Kremlin-owned media
outlets, joined by far-right U.S.-based commentators, baselessly claimed that
Ukraine sold donated Western weapons to Hamas. The social media campaign

AS Archer:
So now confirmed. The bus company
that the Trump campaign booked refused
to return and collect the visitors to the
rally after their repeated requests for
payment were ignored. Another example
in the long history of Trump not paying
his bills (see building suppliers in New York)
@EastEndJoe
The buses didn’t come back because Trump never paid the bus company.

There is no such thing as the "culture

PBS: Consulting firm McKinsey and Co.
has agreed to pay $78 million to settle
claims from insurers and health care
funds that its work with drug companies
helped fuel an opioid addiction crisis.
From 1999 to 2021, nearly 280,000
people in the U.S. died from overdoses
of prescription opioids, according to
the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
Insurers argued that McKinsey worked
with Purdue Pharma even after the
extent of the opioid crisis was apparent.
The settlement is the latest in a years-
long effort to hold McKinsey accountable
for its role in the opioid epidemic. In
February 2021, the company agreed
to pay nearly $600 million to U.S.
states, the District of Columbia and
five U.S. territories. In September,
the company announced a separate,
$230 million settlement agreement
with school districts and local governments.

In 2022, the murder rate in NYC was 5.2
per 100K residents. Alabama? 10.9 per

Steven Rattner:
Trump claims that crime has surged
under Joe Biden’s presidency. That’s false.
In 2023, the nationwide violent and
property crime rates were lower
than any year of Trump’s presidency.

Ex-Republican Strategist,
Stewart Stevens 02/04/24: Like many
traitors, Tucker Carlson feels rejected
and unappreciated by the class he
aspired to join. He was rejected by CIA.
He wanted to be a serious writer and
intellectual. Was fired by MSNBC, CNN,
Tina Brown. Washed up at Fox. Then
fired by FOX. FOX.
Of course he’s in Moscow.
Tucker Carlson: “The city of Moscow…
It’s so much nicer than any city in my
country…It’s so much cleaner, and
safer, and prettier -esthetically-…
Than any city in the United States”
Bill Browder responds:
Tucker, Moscow hasn’t been safe for
my friends Sergei Magnitsky, Boris
Nemtsov or Vladimir Kara-Murza
whose lives have been destroyed for
criticising Putin. If you were Russian
& said the same things about Putin
that you say about Biden, you’d
already be six feet under.

The Tucker Carlson grocery price
video (Russia is so cheap you'll be

The Vampire Weekend singer is a NY’er who
looks like a Mustang Harry’s ex-bartender?
Who thought he was Gloria *Swan-song?*
After a 90 Minute beer I took in a movie.
And noticed an uncanny resemblance to the
actor playing “Renfield,” Dracula’s butler,
eating the bugs, opposite the ultimate narcissist,
Vlad “The Impaler” Dracula played by Nick Cage:

Harvard’s Rep. Elise Stefanik wants to be
45’s VP. Almost as badly as Vivek Ramaswamy,
JD Vance and Gov. Khristy Noem put together.
JD adVanced and answered the Mar a lago call.
William Gibson: Tennessee law allowing
