Dear Tucker Carlson: Spare Us the Tormented Routine
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 6/22/2026 10:07:55 PM
Dear Tucker, When I first saw that you're back in the news, I debated whether to give you the oxygen you're looking for. I don't mean to give you that little extra boost of air, but I hope this letter settles into a recent history slot so the future sees your pivots and judges you accordingly. You spent two years telling millions of Americans to back President Donald Trump and the Republicans who helped put him back in the White House. Then you looked around, found a microphone, and discovered your conscience at the exact moment it could get you yet ANOTHER round of headlines. Incredible timing! Truly, the saints must be

Dear Tucker,
When I first saw that you're back in the news, I debated whether to give you the oxygen you're looking for. I don't mean to give you that little extra boost of air, but I hope this letter settles into a recent history slot so the future sees your pivots and judges you accordingly. You spent two years telling millions of Americans to back President Donald Trump and the Republicans who helped put him back in the White House. Then you looked around, found a microphone, and discovered your conscience at the exact moment it could get you yet ANOTHER round of headlines.
Incredible timing! Truly, the saints must be
Somewhere in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, a small steel-town school district of about 1,400 kids, a school board member is looking at a budget line that didn’t exist a decade ago. In 2014, the district had approximately seven English Learner or “EL” students. In 2024, that number crossed 200.
Charleroi is a small story with a national plot. Over the past decade, the number of students who require extra support with English or multilingual education has exploded nationwide. From Georgia to Ohio and from Texas to Colorado, we are seeing the same thing: as the share of students needing English language services has gone up, the share of the budget going to core
The Virginia House of Delegates just released its final draft of the 2026 budget. Buried in a civil war on data centers, lifting marijuana restrictions, and giving themselves a 150% pay raise, Democrats are also seeking to spend millions on DEI tourism.
Virginia legislators are busy working out the 2026 budget. After months of back and forth with the state Senate and the governor, the Democrat-controlled Legislature released its budget proposal Friday evening, 100 days late.
Buried in the 600-page proposal, which cost taxpayers $50,000 to craft, is a marketing provision that seeks to promote non-white travel to Virginia.
Companies hired by the state to operate the Florida immigration facility known as "Alligator Alcatraz" were notified Monday morning to begin "full demobilization" of the facility, quietly bringing an ignominious close a $1.2 billion experiment that had once been hailed by Governor Ron DeSantis and President Donald Trump as a model other states should pursue, four sources familiar with the operations of the detention center told CBS News Miami.
"All vendors got the notice," one source explained. The announcement was made by Kevin Guthrie, Florida's Emergency Management director, during a morning conference call with the vendors.
Guthrie told the vendors that he expected "significant progress by Wednesday" on clearing the site,
Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul issued a subpoena Monday to force former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci to testify in front of his panel after the Biden administration official declined to do so voluntarily. The senator claimed Fauci previously agreed to testify in front of the panel, but former Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard on her last day in office last week declassified a several-hundred-page agency report on Fauci related to when he was NIAID director, the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing, unresolved issue of the origin of the deadly virus.
Paul said the new hearing will take place in a public forum
“It’s a front-row seat to history, no matter where you are,” the Obamas promised everyone coming to the opening of their grim towering $850 million Obama Presidential Center.
But much like Barack Obama’s famously cynical slogan, “we are the ones we have been waiting for”, some had actual front row seats to the Obama post-history while others were out back.
Most of the three thousand or so people who flocked to serve as human props for the official opening of the massively ugly addition to the Chicago skyline were forced to squat in camp chairs on the dying grass of what remained of a once beloved neighborhood park, burning in the hot

Illegal Immigration Raised Home Prices
for Americans 1 reply
President Joe Biden’s record inflow of illegal aliens to the United States raised home prices and rents for Americans, a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas details.
Biden’s immigration agenda brought millions of illegal aliens to the U.S. in record time. By the end of the Biden administration, the nation’s foreign-born population hit nearly 52 million — the largest ever in American history.
The Federal Reserve report reviewed the impact of illegal immigration on housing prices from early 2021 to early 2024 and found that adding more people to the U.S. population drove up costs.
“According to the U.S. Congressional Budget Office, net entry of this category of immigrants added roughly
Is she just making it up as she goes along?
Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D., Minn.) latest financial disclosures—now claiming her husband earned as little as $200 in 2025 from his two worthless companies—are contradicted by his own accountants, who wrote in 2025 that the companies are worth millions of dollars, according to a letter viewed this spring by the Wall Street Journal. "She can't keep her story straight," said Paul Kamenar of the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), which filed a formal complaint last year about Omar's financial reporting. "There needs to be a full audit to straighten this out,"

Reflecting Pool 9 replies
A former US Olympian was arrested for allegedly vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington DC.
David Hearn, a three-time Olympic canoeist, was cycling past the monument on Friday when he said he stopped and noticed a piece of the pool’s liner floating in the water.
Hearn, 67, claimed to the Washington Post he reached out and touched the detached piece and was quickly taken into custody by Park Police at the beleaguered monument. Video of the incident went viral, with Hearn shown looking bewildered as he’s confronted by members of the National Guard and then put in cuffs by US Park Police.
“I didn’t vandalize anything,” Hearn told The Washington Post.

complaint alleging Fauci lied to Congress
during pandemic 4 replies
An intelligence community whistleblower formally accused Dr. Anthony Fauci of lying to Congress during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the Biden administration took the unusual step of yanking the complaint from the government's independent watchdogs and referring it instead to the political appointee overseeing the Health and Human Services Department, bombshell memos released by departing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard show.
The effort to divert the investigation of Fauci to then-HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra occurred shortly after the government's top pandemic doctor engaged in a discussion with the CIA
The White House has compiled a secret “blacklist” of prominent MAGA influencers who have been accused of taking money to post social media content aimed at shifting the discourse on important political issues or offering access to President Donald Trump, the Daily Mail reported Thursday.
The White House is now monitoring signs that influencers may have been paid off by domestic or foreign lobbies to target the president and his supporters, according to the Daily Mail. The outlet named MAGA influencers C.J. Pearson, Rob Smith, Arynne Wexler, Emily Wilson and Ryan Fournier, co-founder of Students for Trump, as among the alleged offenders. “I just have utter contempt for them, there’s
Two political dynasties flamed out in Maine’s ranked-choice gubernatorial primaries earlier this month.
Republican Jonathan Bush, the nephew of former President George H. W. Bush and a cousin of former President George W. Bush, was eliminated from contention following the sixth round of tabulation.
On the Democratic side, Angus King III, the son of Sen. Angus King (D-Maine), was eliminated following the first round.
Democrat Hannah Pingree — the former speaker of the Maine House of Representatives and the daughter of Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) — and Republican Bobby Charles will compete this fall to succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. Janet Mills, the Maine Secretary of State’s Office confirmed Friday.

Starmer Resigns

Sir Keir Starmer choked up this morning as he resigned as Labour leader and listed his ‘achievements’, setting the stage for a leadership contest and a new Prime Minister to be in place by September. The Mail has more.
Keir Starmer choked up today as he announced he is quitting, with Andy Burnham closing in on taking control of Downing Street.
The PM talked up his achievements in getting Labour elected – as well as making a series of dubious claims about successes in Government – in a statement outside the famous black door of No. 10.
How do Americans respond to the economic and political system known as socialism? For a decade or two after the collapse of socialism in Eastern Europe countries and other nations, the idea became untenable. Now, however, socialism has regained popularity among many, in particular Democrats, as the June I&I/TIPP Poll demonstrates.
In the latest online national poll, taken from May 26 through May 28, 1,589 voting-age respondents were asked the following question: “In general, do you have a favorable or unfavorable view of socialism?”
Those answering the poll, which has a margin of error of +/-2.7 percentage points, were

database of Social Security numbers, citizenship status 17 replies
A federal judge on Monday blocked the Trump administration from creating a centralized database containing Social Security numbers along with information about voters’ citizenship status and other sensitive data.
District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, an appointee of former President Biden, said officials across numerous government agencies “haphazardly combined and repurposed the private information of millions of Americans, including citizenship data that they knew to be unreliable” in order to comply with President Trump’s March executive order attempting to overhaul federal elections.
The Erasure of Mother and Father in New York
16 replies
The first words out of my son’s mouth were “Mom” and “Dad,” words that capture the beautiful, natural reality of human life and family. Yet New York’s Democrat-controlled legislature has passed a bill that seeks to erase these foundational terms from state law, replacing “mother” with the clinical “gestating parent” and “father” with the soulless “non-gestating parent.” “Paternity” becomes “parentage,” and “putative father” yields to “alleged parent.” This Orwellian rewrite now sits on Governor Kathy Hochul’s desk.[snip]Mothers gestate and give birth; fathers provide the other half of the biological equation.
Obama’s Hideous Monument to Hubris
16 replies
When the Democrats nominated Barack Obama to represent their party in the 2008 presidential election many voters consoled themselves with this thought: “Well, at least it’s not Hillary.” Unfortunately, preventing her from taking up residence in the White House was the last useful thing he did for the country. Indeed, from the moment he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize during his first year in office—before he could possibly have done anything noteworthy—it became clear that there would be a huge gap between his actual accomplishments and the celebration of his presidency.
Back in 2024, all of us watched in horror as Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key was crushed and collapsed in a heap of twisted, mangled metal.A massive container ship lost power and drifted straight into one of the bridge’s support columns and brought the entire thing down in seconds. But the most horrific part is that six construction workers were killed. The Port of Baltimore was shut down for weeks, and the economic disaster was in the billions.
(snip) the collapse was described as just some “catastrophic accident.” (snip)the ship was operating with a well-known hazardous fuel system that didn’t have a backup safeguard. And the chief engineer, an Indian national
Sir Keir Starmer wants to force social networks and video platforms to make BBC content more prominent.
Under plans to further restrict private media firms, news from public service broadcasters would be given priority to fight “disinformation”.
The proposals will set Sir Keir on a collision course with tech giants already frustrated by his under-16s social media ban.
The Government is expected to start a consultation this week on the rules, which would force platforms such as Facebook and YouTube to boost content from the BBC, ITV and Channel 4.
Sources at the Department for Culture, Media and Sport said the rules would make it easier for Britons to “discover trusted news sources” online.
On her final day as director of national intelligence Friday, Tulsi Gabbard released damning declassified evidence accusing Dr. Anthony Fauci of causing the COVID-19 pandemic, engaging in a cover-up about the virus origins in China and lying to Congress about it.
Perhaps most disturbingly, he was assisted by the US intelligence community.
“It’s time you know the truth,” said Gabbard when she released “never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins,

Marjorie Taylor Greene is riding shotgun alongside Tucker Carlson as he drives away from the Republican Party.
The ex-GOP lawmaker on Monday said she is finished supporting the Republican Party — which she branded the “America LAST” party — just like her pal Carlson. She also echoed Carlson’s claim that Republicans have betrayed the American public in favor of a foreign nation — namely Israel.
Greene posted on X on Monday: Tucker is not the only one who is done supporting the Republican Party.
There is A LOT of us that are absolutely fed up and will not support a party that betrays its voters and country.
“Canada’s Texas is threatening divorce, and it could eventually become the 51st state,” crows the ultraconservative think-tank behind the Trump administration. The free people of Alberta are about to take a vote. It’s Canada’s fourth-largest province, both by size (about 411,187 sq mi) and population (5 million). It’s home to North America’s iconic Rocky Mountains, where crystal clear glacial lakes are scattered across forested landscape.
Some Real Talk About the Iran Deal

It’s time to take a hard look at the memorandum of understanding (MOU) and to think about it objectively. On one hand, it is not the utter catastrophe that a lot of people – people who largely agree with my position that we should be actively destroying these goat-molesting, pagan semi-humans – think it is. On the other hand, it’s a crap sandwich, and there’s no need to take a bite and announce that it’s “Yummy.” It is not yummy, but it might be the best we can hope for today.
