Tucker Goes on a Rampage: Rages at Republicans in Favor of Jan. 6th Commission, Says it’s a ‘Poisonous Hoax’

Tucker is now more dangerous than Hannity ever was. Hannity was an embarrassing suck-up. Hannity elevated Trump to the GOP nomination back when many at FOX did not want Trump to be the candidate. Remember Megyn Kelly?

But Hannity never really dove straight into Q-anon type of theories that put people in serious jeopardy the way Tucker does (All things are relevant here). Hannity never had to fire staff for visiting white supremacist sites. Hannity is an ass, and irredeemable, Tucker is increasingly dangerous and that is likely why Tucker’s ratings continue to go up. He gives the FOX audience what they want and they want him conspiratorial and aggressive.

Last night, Tucker went off against Republicans that want a January 6th truth commission. Per Mediaite, Tucker has had a lot to say about the real victims of January 6th, the people storming the Capitol, attempting a coup: Transcript and Video at Mediaite:

 “They didn’t have guns, but a lot of them had extremely dangerous ideas. They talked about the Constitution, and something called their rights… Some are being kept in solitary confinement for “trespassing.” 

NO one is being kept in solitary confinement for trespassing. Bear pepper spray shot into law enforcement faces is not trespassing and we have not read of many in “solitary confinement.”

These people did have extremely dangerous ideas. No matter the evidence, they refused to accept an election that their guy didn’t win. If they actually “talked about the Constitution,” (Tucker’s words) it would show that they had no role to play on that day. Their role was on Nov. 3rd and supporting lawful suits afterward. They had no right to “win” the election, they had no “right” to storm the Capitol, they had no “right” to fight police, and they had no “right” to violently threaten people. Tucker knows this.

People like Congressman John Katko of New York – he’s the top Republican on the House Homeland Security Committee – is [sic] apparently pushing for this 9-11 style commission. One anonymous House Republican told The Hill that anywhere from between 30 and 50 Republicans might join Katko in voting for this farce. What are they voting for? They’re voting to give Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Joe Biden more power – power they do not deserve, power they did not win in November. Republican voters deserve to know the names of every congressional Republican who votes for this farce, for the myth-making that is being used right now to strip you of your constitutional rights. They should know which of their representatives is playing along with this poisonous hoax. And we hope they will learn soon.

Actually, Schumer and Pelosi did win that power in November. Why did the GOP deserve the power to investigate Benghazi 426 times but the Democrats do not deserve the power to investigate an attempted coup? What constitutional rights are being stripped by forming an investigation? We really really want an answer to that, which constitutional rights are being stripped? How does Tucker know this is a “poisonous hoax” before anyone finds any evidence?

Tucker’s issue is that the investigation might well be poison to the MAGA movement. Like anything that ever involved itself with Trump, the truth was always the strongest poison and always to be fought.
