The only things I’ve heard about Tucker since he got axed by Fox is that he was on Twitter and now he’s starting his own thing He was constantly in the news when he was on Fox News, by comparison

Somehow, I still know exactly what expression his face is making at this very moment, though.

Rudy in court now for the 2 ladies he claimed were passing flash drives (and not candy) and stealing the election who were then subsequently harassed by MAGA. Nothing exciting happening, Rudy seems to be zombie like and didnt even rise for the judge. https://twitter.com/kyledcheney/status/1734204422702395442 Reuters was there with video outside, but no one showed up to protest or anything. Nobody cares about Rudy anymore.

It’s an interesting turn where right-wing freaks just turn toward attacking the judge directly as carrying out a conspiracy against them. I feel like they used to follow their lawyers’ advice much more reliably. Rudy is probably afraid of dying from the dts if he gets put in jail for more than a few days. He was already drunk for pre-noon public appearances in 2021.

I typically only hear about him if he's going out of his way to platform someone odious enough to pull attention back to him, but now it's just heavy pickme energy where the only thing that's actually interesting is the resonantly awful person that got brought in to talk. Tucker himself is just the afterthought now, and there's some justice in that.

It’s almost the exact same thing that happened when Glenn Beck left Fox. He went off to The Blaze and for the most part people stopped talking about him

FlamingLiberal posted:The only things I’ve heard about Tucker since he got axed by Fox is that he was on Twitter and now he’s starting his own thing Same with Bill O'Reilly. Only peep I've heard from him in 5 years is that he's occasionally a guest on Hannity's radio show hawking another "Killing __________" book. ... Predictably, there's been a lot of discussion about the Hunter Biden indictments in RWM circles. Some guy I just heard being interviewed even made an effort to point out that he's being indicted by "The BIDEN Justice Department" so that means it's credible, which got me to thinking. They've been hemming and hawing about TBJD/DoJ for a while now - at least since Trump and the 1/6 crowd started catching charges - and have been going on and on about the weaponized DoJ and the Deep State plot to crush Trump. But...this same justice department just indicted the president's own SON? So how do they conflate these two contradictory opinions where it was The Deep State and Biden ordering the DoJ to shut down the MAGA Movement but now proffer that the same entity's indictment of Hunter lends it legitimacy? I know the answer is "they can't and don't really care" but I'm trying to imagine a Trump run DoJ bringing charges on DT Jr or Eric. I wasn't able to listen to the whole interview but I kinda doubt they got into any Deep State or weaponized justice talk.

Rudy just sittin and sippin off his wine filled camelbak. https://twitter.com/kyledcheney/status/1734301925221249177 Main problem is that he will likely never have anywhere near that amount of money for the rest of his life after all the lawsuits.

He's still wrangling with the bankruptcy courts and filing go-nowhere-but-waste-time appeals on his default judgements, plus has hidden a ton of money in places where it's obviously still his but legally slow to get away from him/his proxies. I agree he belongs in a garbage can, because he's trash.

I think a pretty good way of pointing out the shifting of the Overton Window is looking at who's resisted the shift. Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney, John McCain and to a small extent Mitch McConnell. A former Republican Vice President's daughter, both of their candidates for President before Trump and a leader of the Senate since forever. All shitheads who, at the time, were who the voters and leaders of the party both chose to be shining examples of their values. I know a key right-wing tactic is to pretend whoever they like or dislike at the moment have been good or bad since the beginning of time but considering how many times they've run that play and the people they've run it on you'd think a few of them would notice by now

They refused Hunter's testimony, don't want transparency and call a bill that makes voting as easy as possible a power grab. Gee it's almost like a political party would only take these positions if they can only survive by being disingenuous all the time

I'd never actually listen to it because I'm not that much of a masochist, but Grant Stinchfield's latest podcast description says that the left "relies on political payoffs and hate" and yep sure buddy now tell me about why I should vote for the guy vowing to pardon the people who rioted to keep him in office and is cozying up to lobbying groups trying to make being trans illegal. I'm sure it'll be enlightening

This is literally what my dad said to me about a year ago, almost verbatim. Nothing else matters, just the potential for lower taxes (that will never happen since he's not a megacorporation).
