The speaker discusses Tucker Carlson, describing him as a "useful idiot" who spreads false information and echoes Vladimir Putin's lies about Ukraine. They express concern about Carlson potentially getting a contract with another outlet despite his history of being fired for not reporting the truth. The speaker also questions why certain Republicans and Americans believe Putin and why Trump trusted him over intelligence agencies. They seek a working theory for these actions.
Speaker 0: I mean, he's like a puppy dog. You know? He somehow has after having been fired from so many outlets in the United States, he, I would not be surprised, if he emerges with a contract with outlet because he is a useful idiot. He says things that are not true. He parrots Vladimir Putin's, pack of lies about Ukraine.
So I don't see why Putin wouldn't give him an interview because through him, he can, you know, continue to lie about what his, you know, objectives are in Ukraine and and, you know, what he expects to see happen. It's really quite sad that not just somebody like Tucker Carlson who has, as I said, been fired so many times because he seems unable to, you know, correlate his reporting with the truth. But also because it's a sign that there are people in this country right now who are like a 5th column for Vladimir Putin. And why? I don't know.
I mean, why are certain Republicans throwing their lot in? Why are, you know, other Americans basically believing, Putin. Why did Trump believe Putin more than our 11 intelligence agencies? I don't know. Do you have a working theory or do you have a working theory?
