Tucker Carlson Has a Theory on Why He
Was Fired

Tucker Carlson, who was abruptly fired by Fox News this week, has a theory about why he was let go from the network. If he’s right, the implications are quite significant. Though he hasn’t said anything about this in public, Carlson believes that the network is on the verge of being sold by the Murdoch family. “Carlson has told people he doesn’t know why he was terminated. According to the source, [Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott] refused to tell him how the decision was made; she only said that it was made ‘from above.’ Carlson has told people he believes his controversial show is being taken off the

Any termination requires a cause of termination. That is required by law. So Fox is open to a lawsuit for wrongful termination.

If they sell Fox....it's almost certainly going to be to a farther leftist puke or consortium of pukes who absolutely want to silence the patriotic, sane American view.

Why would a business unload his biggest money maker to make it attractive to a potential buyer. It doesn’t make sense unless you are planning on having a Fire sale. Then your only buyer would be the government.

With the exception of Fox, all the other big networks are there to push ideology. Fox is there to make money. It's believable that Fox (the Murdochs) is looking for one final payoff.

Selling Fox may be part of the Murdoch family's estate planning in anticipation of Rupie kicking the bucket in the next few years. He's 92 and isn't immortal. It pays to plan.

FTA: “ Though he hasn’t said anything about this in public, Carlson believes that the network is on the verge of being sold by the Murdoch family.” And we know this why? Or is this pure speculation? I believe the truth will come out but it is not going to do so until Tucker decides it is time. Frankly, to me this is the most absurd reason. So Murdoch wants to sell Fox and he gets rid of one of the most successful and profit producing talent on the network? If you are going to sell anything you want to present it in the most desirable condition to entice buyers. If anything, Murdoch wants the most successful talent to shut up and stop presenting truth that he personally does not like. Notice how these woke CEO’s and owners want to stifle speech they do not like even if it means they will lose millions and possible their entire businesses. Something is afoot like we have never seen before. This demonic agenda has so taken hold of these people that they are willing to protect it, enable it, and support it even at the cost of their own personal wealth. This is not normal. As banal as it sounds this truly is a war between good and evil and people are taking sides.

I think maybe because Rupert Mudoch is almost 100 and wants to step away from running his media empire. That and the fact since he's getting up there his son's Lachlan and James are big leftists (with wives who are bigger leftists) who are now in charge. Plus the fact that RINO dunce Paul Ryan is on the board of directors Carlson's firing was writing on the wall. He told the truth on his show and unlike the dummy that came on after him was intelligent enough to articulate that truth into something worth watching. Murdochs dopey kids and the RINO putz couldn't let that continue so Tucker had to go. Now since Fox News "Bud Lite-ed" themselves we will see if this very stupid move on their part pans out.

Theories will abound for at least a while. But could this be a power play directed by sinister forces in the "new world order" cabal? Fox and especially Carlson have been a thorn in their side for a long time. Also, any successful counter-effort would likely be more successful based out of the cesspool that is New York. Say Dallas or Miami?

This is not my original thoughts. It was posted on Twitter the other day. Interesting theory. They are preparing to steal the next election. Former House Speaker, Paul Ryan, is making sure Trump has limited exposure. The firing of @LaraLeaTrump, @dbongino and @TuckerCarlson was not a coincidence!!!!!

Joe Biden has announced he will seek reelection as president. This comes as he is experiencing the lowest approval ratings of his presidency — 37 percent, according to Gallup. Former President Donald Trump or Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will almost certainly be the GOP nominee. The blunt reality, however, is that regardless of who the GOP puts up against Biden, they will lose if the party isn’t prepared to get down in the mud and beat the Democratic National Committee (DNC) at their own dirty game: ballot harvesting. The 2020 election left conservatives shellshocked. How could Trump lose to a supposedly senile candidate who spoke to tiny, lackluster crowds?

Overheated rhetoric is not a new feature of the American news landscape. In the 19th century, newspapers were openly partisan and sometimes directly tied to a particular political party. And just as the “big three” era of alleged unbiased reporting gave way to more aggressive matchups on ideological cable news networks, so too the fallout from the split between primetime viewership leader Tucker Carlson and Fox News might be a glimpse of what the news business might look like in its next evolution. As Carlson himself said in his single video comment since parting ways with Fox, the problem with much of what passes for debate

The decade-long French Revolution that broke out in 1789 soon devolved into far more than removing the monarchy, as it became antithetical to the earlier American precedent. American notions of liberty and freedom were seen as far too narrow, given the state, if only all-powerful and all-wise, could mandate “equality” and force “fraternity” among its subjects. Each cycle of French revolutionary fervor soon became more radicalized and cannibalistic—until it reached its logical ends of violent absurdity. Originally, the idea of curbing the power of a Bourbon king through a parliamentary republic became lethally counter-revolutionary.

The fight to keep women’s sports exclusively for biological women is just beginning and will be a long one. Former University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines brought the fight front and center when she was forced to compete with transgender athlete Lia Thomas. Now, Gaines has upped the ante in the fight to protect women’s and girls’ sports. She recently filed a $2 million lawsuit against Thomas, who was born William Thomas, citing cheating in order to win the national women’s swimming title, and exposing himself in a female locker room. When Lia Thomas began life, and eventually her swimming career as William Thomas, he was ranked 462 among collegiate male swimmers.

When we’re talking about Presidentish Joe Biden’s increasing senility, it’s difficult to choose the worst, most embarrassing moment of his time in office.Imagine trying to top this first selection from September of last year, when Biden got lost exiting the stage at a Global Fund event — yet he’s done just that on several occasions. From the clip, it’s impossible to tell whether the announcer was supposed to address Biden at the end, or if he was just trying to get the alleged president’s attention and lure him to the correct side of the stage. You know, the side with the actual exit.

The Democrats have left the goal wide open. Almost anyone could defeat President Joe Biden, whose physical and mental decline can no longer be hidden from the public. Almost anyone.Yet, with a kind of hideous slow-motion inevitability, the Republicans seem determined to pick the one candidate that we know Biden can beat. We can say that definitively, for it is a matter of observed fact rather than conjecture. It is agonizing for friends of the United States to watch the two parties, in the grip of their weird internal dynamics, plumping for candidates whom they know in their souls to be unsuitable.

Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News, and his enemies are aflutter with media-industry schadenfreude. Contrary to their self-image, most media types—including in right-wing journalism—are highly risk-averse and deferential in the extreme to the imperatives of power. So they can’t help crowing “Aha! Aha!” when a genuinely defiant and independent-minded figure among them appears to stumble. Such a figure is Carlson. Beginning in 2016, he anchored the most interesting and important news show on television. He soon emerged as a tribune for populist opponents of endless war and Big Tech-enabled censorship and surveillance, at his best ripping into the GOP’s plutocracy caucus as well as mainstream Democrats.

What exactly does he want to finish, other than American exceptionalism as we know it? America is rapidly imploding on many fronts – financial and economic, cultural, safety, and our place in the world. Does finishing the job mean erasing every achievement of former President Donald Trump? Or is he completing former President Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign promise, "We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America"?

It will soon release a proposed rule targeting power plants with hugely expensive carbon capture mandates. This is just the tip of the spear. As the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Clyde Wayne Crews put it recently, “President Biden is leading an unprecedented expansion of the administrative state.
