Steve Schmidt reacts to the news that Tucker Carlson was fired due to an unflattering text message coming to light as a result of the Dominion lawsuit. In the message, he described himself watching a video of Donald Trump supporters beating up someone he referred to as “an Antifa kid.” Carlson wrote of his conflicting emotions, hinting at his dismay that he had found himself “rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they’d hit him harder, kill him.”
Steve explains that no one should be surprised about this revelation and how Tucker Carlson & Fox News teamed up for 6 years to sow division in American democracy.

"Focker KKK'arlson" is a "subtle Americanized version" of NAZI Propagandist Joseph Goebbels. 🃏🃏🃏
At least he admitted his ideas were destroying him and America in his email confession. I at least applaud his honesty about who he has become. Maybe Tucker will finally jump ship and become a reformed person and join Antifa! That would actually be a huge win for the progressives! Just think if Tucker started coming clean and like Pinocchio, became human 😊❤
Evil is as evil does.
Republicans as a party, are destroying institutions by allowing hurtful maniaclike Trump and Co. I still don't know why DOJ hasn't brought changes on January 6. The coup He leads.
"Becoming"? He's way past becoming; he is.
Can't FOX News be shut down by the U.S. Justice Dept. under the provisions of the RICO Act?
Yup !
Well said!
I lost it at the double chin photo.
Hell is waiting on all the racist white man
People should be very clear that Tucker Carlson, along with all the other demagogues on the far right, are the exact kind of people who set in motion genocides. It was demagogues like him who laid the groundwork for, initiated, and cheered on the Rwandan Genocide. It was demagogues like him that spawned the ethnically based atrocities in the former Yugoslavia. It was demagogues like him that turned the partition of India into a bloody orgy of religious violence. People like him drive their followers to kill people. The people who give demagogues like him a platform are equally complicit. They are a cancer in whatever society they infect, that if not addressed may very well kill the host.
Thank Steve, well said as always. I don’t care to listen to *ucker’s musings, never watched anyone like him and never will. I have no tolerance for anyone that speaks of white supremacy or is unAmerican, after serving my country! Rupert however, never should be allowed his citizenship in our country! He has nearly destroyed many before he came here. We should learn from others’ mistakes!
OH , I UNDERSTAND , LET HIM GO ON TV AND LIE AND DESTROY AMERICA 🇺🇸 AND NOW HE'S THE BAD GUY !! ALL OF FOX IS GUILTY OF TREASON !! AND MURDOCK IS HE EVEN A CITIZEN !
Carlson, Trump, Hannity, Ailes, Ingram, Bartiromo, O'Reilly, etc are Mudoch creations. Murdoch is the head of the snake.
Carlson = 3 million viewers. High school dropouts = 40 million American adults. Home Shopping Network = 5 million customers – and, 1.6 million American households don't have an indoor toilet.
Those statements made by Tucker Carlson say something that is not being pointed out here. Carlson KNEW that what he was thinking was morally and ethically wrong. He admitted that this mindset was bad for him. But at no time did he say that he would even consider changing his message or rhetoric. So, even knowing how wrong he was and how much potential damage he was doing, Tucker Carlson CHOSE to stay on that path. Any morals, dignity, or self-respect he may have had were neatly packaged and traded for the fame and fortune he received from the most decrepit parts of America.
Very well said Steve!
Considering that over half of White Americans ( even women) support Trump, I'm all for " Replacement Theory"".
It's our last, best hope to preserve Democracy.
“You shall not distort justice; you shall not be partial, and you shall not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. Deut. 16:19”
the highlighted tucker statement is a SUCCINCT summary of the HUMAN default perspective …
they're not good or something to be proud of …
but they're true for all …
'never again shall i flood the earth … for man's heart is evil from it's youth …'
Thank you very much for sharing
Tucker maybe a coward who don't know what he's talking about.
There's nothing whatsoever to "expose" about Tucker Carlson.
The point to be made is that everything we need to know about Tucker Carlson are the things which we already know. And since the Left disagrees with the facts, he managed to get himself cancelled, just like every other person who's too vocal regarding facts and opinions. In short … Tucker Carlson is a dangerous threat to the anti-American political ideology of the Democrats. If you piss off the Left, then you pay the price. Meaning what? Being cancelled, of course.
Period – end of story –
Furthermore … the vile beliefs in existence are not those of Tucker, but ONLY of the Left. The Left cannot tolerate the truth, nor can it tolerate common sense.
It's truly shocking what can freak out the Left. They're afraid of their own shadow, and everything they do shines a blindingly bright light on themselves.
What if nobody loves the kid? OK to kill him then?
And our business leaders all across the country support these evil "C" suckers. How on earth can this sh!t be good for their business? These CEO's aren't smart enough to run a lemon aid stand. WTF
You are wrong he is just F. Up and not on the high end of the I Q Spectrum
Clear, concise and true.
I was just reading a chapter in the book "Infected Christianity: A Story of Modern Racism" entitled 'The Latin Christ'. The book itself is divided into several chapters about how Christianity was eroded from within by various western nations after they embraced the religion. The chapter preceding the "Latin Christ" was "The German Christ". The latter shows the huge influence the early Germans played in infecting Christianity by injecting into it their unique fantasy and toxic views revolving around German superiority. Most of the racialist philosophers of the 18th and 19th Century were German.
But in the 'Latin Christ' we find several French philosophers who held their own as principal racists. Most prominent among them was Joseph Arthur Comte de Gobineau who is considered by most scholars as the father of Modern Racism. His most infamous and widely-read racist tract was "Essay on the Inequality of the Human Races", in which he describes nonwhite peoples being the cause of the fall of all empires and nations when they were allowed to be integrated into former empires. Gobineau styled himself as an aristocrat by co-opting an uncle's genuine aristocrat pedigree, because having come from a poorer background he had to improve his image. And so he projected himself as a 'Count'(Comte). The onset of modernity and social upheavals combined to make him look for scapegoats for attacks on the aristocrats by revolutionaries in France. He associated revolutionaries with the failings he perceived were innate to nonwhites, and so he readily embraced racist sentiments. The threat to aristocrats had to be countered with racist dogma.
Tucker Carlson in many ways, overt and subtle, is a replica of Gobineau. Both having no real moral foundation nor deep affinity with Religion and its Message despite being brought up nominally as Christian. And both assuming a status undeserved—Tucker being the lucky heir to a fortune left by Swanson wealth.
I'm actually impressed that Tuck has the introspection to see that his thoughts are maybe leading him down a black hole.
Once again, a masterful job explaining what and who Tucker Carson is and, by extension, Fox Corp. Who's going to be the next Tucker on Fox? Will the American people wake up to the dangers these people are fomenting within the bodypoltic?
In Q-maga Trumpland he's a future medal of freedom recipient.
PATHETIC RACISTS ALL OF THEM 🤮
If Tucker is a White Supremacist, and he has the most watched Cable news show in America. What does that say about America?
Faux is HATE Headquarters. Psychologicallly troubled white victims are attracted and excited to the negativity they spew.
They will pay out millions more in upcoming defamation lawsuits. I want them to disappear forever for damaging our democracy.
I am one of those brown people. The original brown people a native American.
Racism must die.
Mr. Schmidt has approached his crossroad with courage and honor. His is a psyche worth attention.
Tucky Boy will remain somewhere with some audience, but the FOX platform will never be the same. Don't believe me? Ask Bill O'reilly how his basement podcast ratings are going……..
Well said mate..Carlson is a phuckwit
The tucker is the ugly megaphone of 21st century Confederate MAGA-GOP politics which are racist, misogynistic, Herodian, transphobic, homophobic, xenophobic, and anti-Democratic fostering fear, hate and division.
Mr. Schmidt, an excellent expose.
