I totally get why Fox let him go. He’s clearly not well.

I've always been skeptical regarding Tucker. I always had a feeling he was a wolf and sheep's clothing. There was a time when I thought oh gosh, she's saying some good things, but I still had a niggling inside it. Something wasn't right. Whatever he's off his rocker for sure! And he's twisting scripture like crazy and he's clueless about what Christianity believes

Global security? The CIA effectively ran as a terrorist organization for 50 years and I'm not sure, how, say, backing and helping to orchestrate the slaughter of a million dead Indonesians was helping to secure global security. Although it help US companies get a handle on natural resources. I mean, I see your point about anti-Americanism, but painting global power politics as the US always acting out of the common good is just ridiculous. It's an ugly world, and the US has done ugly things. And calling Europe "pansies" - how is that helpful to the larger argument? It's stupid remark, and you know it.

"The highest art of warfare is not to fight at all, but *to subvert anything of value in the country of your enemy until such time that the perception of reality of your enemy is screwed up to such an extent that he does not perceive you as an enemy. And that your system, your civilization, and your ambitions look to your enemy as an alternative, if not desirable, then at least feasible.* “Better red than dead.” That’s the ultimate purpose, the final stage of subversion after which you can simply take your enemy without a single shot being fired — if subversion is successful." - Yuri Bezmenov (lecture).

5:20 Does he not remember what German mustache man did 80-ish years ago? That was a pretty strong effort to literally exterminate an entire religious group.
