“Good Riddance”: Military-Industrial Complex Celebrates Tucker Carlson’s Fox News Exit

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News,

Members of the military-industrial complex interviewed by Politico celebrated Tucker Carlson’s exist from Fox News, with one declaring, “Good riddance!”

Carlson was unceremoniously booted from the network on Monday despite being the most popular prime time TV news host in America.

He was reportedly given barely 10 minutes notice of the decision before it was revealed to the media.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, members of the military-industrial complex and the deep state are all but popping champagne corks in response to the news.

We’re a better country without him bagging on our military every night in front of hundreds of thousands of people,” one senior DoD official told Politico.

Good riddance,” added another.

When reporter Lara Seligman asked Tucker Carlson what he thought about top Pentagon officials expressing glee at his departure, the former Fox News host texted, “Ha! I’m sure.”

Carlson had repeatedly taken swipes at US military bosses for appearing to be more focused on amplifying narratives about “diversity” than defending America.

When AOC, The View, the Pentagon, and big pharma are all celebrating your ousting you were probably doing the Lord’s work,” commented Auron MacIntyre.

Meanwhile, Dr. Nicholas Waddy, political analyst and associate professor of history at SUNY Alfred, told Sputnik that Carlson’s departure will “solidify the neo-conservative, hawkish orientation of Fox News” when it comes to supporting conflicts like the one in Ukraine.

“The more important question, though, is whether oppositional media and journalism, and thus democratic pluralism, can survive in an environment in which ‘misinformation’ and ‘libel’ are so opportunistically defined,” Waddy added, “and in which a media organization can be buried in litigation, as well as abandoned by skittish advertisers, and thus stifled financially if it strays from political orthodoxy.”

As we highlight in the video below, there were a number of reasons for Carlson’s exit, but prime amongst them was his constant questioning of how much taxpayer money was being used to prolong the war in Ukraine and what the end goal was.

Carlson was the best major media personality, but tame by my standards. He had to lament US efforts in the Ukraine as a mere waste of money. I, on the other hand, hope Russia kicks Ukie ass and takes Transnistria, Odessa and Kharkov, showing countries throughout the world (as if Vietnam and Afghanistan weren’t lesson enough) that expecting the Americans to protect you forever is ridiculous and stupid.

Once the cashflow is stopped and the ukies can no longer hire the dumbest mercenaries . then quickly run out of weapons and ammo, how long will it be before the Russians simply walk in??

They’ll have accomplished two things. The ruskies will have destroyed not only the ukies armies but also the paid mercenaries thrown at the meat grinder. The pesky near dead putin whos fighting an internal insurrection and a shortage of cheap vodka will have bankrupted murika and europe as well. Such poor strategies, ol putiepie should have invaded big time at the very beginning. like murika does to smaller nations.

In the end, the ruskies will walk in but the fag zed will have already fled the country and moved into his mansion in Florida. Yhe military dishrags will still have their nice plush cherry wood offices, collecting their oversized paychecks and bluster about if only they had been given the money they needed to overthrow Russia. Certainly not their fault they lost horribly

The govt in canukistan has done the same thing here. They sprayed chemicals over various prairie towns back in the day and chemtrail today.

Yesterday I was at the range, and a fella I was talking to is a pilot. We counted 9 linear crisscrossed 90 degree paths while standing there chatting. The day went from clear and sunny to atmospheric ‘hazed’ in about an hour. Painfully obvious its chemtrails but the average joe thinks its all conspiracies and won’t believe their lying eyes.

Been looking up since I was a kid as there were pilots in the family.
Con-trails don’t linger.

Remember back in the day when vapor trails vanished shortly after a plane went by ?

Looked up the other day and saw two planes headed east. One was leaving a small trail that vanished within a few seconds and the other a trail that lingered and grew wider by the minute. It is difficult to call it atmospheric conditions when you see both kinds at the same time.

Unless one considers every input parameter re “condensation trails”
one is merely guessing.

Does the altitude of our atmoshere fluctuate?

What happens to earth atmosphere when the sun energy output increases or decreases?

Does our position relative to the galaxy affect weather and events like condensation on earth?

Can the interstellar current altar the reaction of engine heat and exhaust in atmosphere so it appears different visually?

Do volcanoes on earth contribute burnt elements to the exhaust of aircraft passing through volcanic exhausts?

Do some solar flares deliver elements to our upper atmosphere that behave oddly after passing through a jet engine?

Does some jet fuel have traces of oil in it that cause iridescent clouds or long contrails?
_______

Not everything is nefarious, but if it causes even unfounded fear, it will be hurled against us by enemies.
_______

Even two planes apparently flying in the same sky could be thousands of feet apart in elevation. Ergo, the atmospheric conditions of two planes may look the same from roughly 5 or 6 miles away [cruising altitudes of 25,000 to 30,000 are k own to occur] but locally they can be extremely different.

The plane at 25,000 feet is leaving a short trail.
The one at 30,ooo feet is leaving a long trail.

Yet from the ground they appear to be at same altitude.
_______

I think part of the problem here arises from the erroneous human view that our atmosphere has distinct smooth delineation between regions. But in fact, atmosphere is a roiling ocean of gases.

[Imagine our atmosphere as a big splashing bath of gases, buffeted by solar and intergalactic “winds”]
______

Bonus info:
When large enough objects strike the earth, large portions of atmosphere are “splashed” off of the planet.
When the atmosphere is splashed away, anything exposed to “zero” atmosphere is instantly flash frozen.

Don’t let the salacious removals of Tucker Carlson & Don Lemon distract you from the fact that Joe Biden quietly submitted a War Powers Resolution yesterday which puts American boots on the ground in Djibouti, Ethiopia, & Sudan for an indefinite amount of time.

Auntie loves the fact that the brave admirals, generals, MIC executives and high-ranking political appointees were “gleeful” at Carlson losing his job because of hurtful words while the Pentagram left 85 BILLION dollars of materiel in Afghanistan and withdrew in the most ignominious manner possible.

Their anonymous schadenfreude is odious just as they are.

4. I knew things were bad. When I started work on the #TwitterFiles, I learned: they’re far worse. The Files show an uncanny alliance of academics, journalists, intelligence operatives, military personnel, government bureaucrats, NGO workers and more. Some I know personally.

5. I had always understood “civil society” to mean “not the military.” The former exists to check the latter. So I was shocked to see the depth of collaboration. For instance, “civil society” groups coordinating with Pentagon officials in an “election tabletop” exercise. Why?

6. Also startling: Twitter emails and Slack communications suggesting heightened levels of data access for the military. Or military contractors like Mitre being part of the Aspen Institute’s “Information Disorder” report along with NGO and academic colleagues.

9. Tech companies not only collaborate on content, they gather regularly for “private sector engagement” with the FBI, DOD, DHS, House and Senate Intel Committees, and others, each agency getting its own meetings:

11. Graphika receives money from the Pentagon, Navy, and Air Force, while simultaneously supporting human rights organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. Working with both the perpetrators & those representing the victims is very 2023.

14. As reported by @shellenbergerMD, The Aspen Institute combined WaPo, NYT, Rollingstone, NBC, CNN, Twitter, Facebook, Stanford, and “anti-disinfo” NGOs like FirstDraft to practice an oddly prescient “hack and leak” exercise on the Hunter Biden laptop BEFORE its release.

21. The scale of funding is similarly beyond shocking. Governments and foundations pour millions – one company alone reportedly won $979 million from the Pentagon – into “anti-disinformation” firms and NGOs.

32. The story of the #TwitterFiles and the Censorship-Industrial Complex (CIC) is really the story of the collapse of public trust in experts and institutions, and how those experts struck back, by trying to pool their remaining influence into a political monopoly
