During a discussion with president-elect Trump’s former Office of Management and Budget Director, Russ Vought, Tucker Carlson posited that the outgoing administration is attempting to saddle Trump with a global conflict.
“If you doubt how serious the opposition is to the public, not just to Trump, but to the majority of the country that voted for him, They’re trying to leave him with World War III on the way out,” Carlson urged.
Russia is furious about the Biden administration lifting restrictions on use of US developed long range missiles, and Putin has repeatedly stated that such a move would mean NATO countries are at war with Russia.
Carlson continued, “I can’t imagine a more desperate or evil thing for Tony Blinken, who I think is desperate and evil, in my view, to do. Leave him with a war?”
“A lame-duck president trying to start a war with the world’s largest nuclear power, Russia. What do you make of that?” Carlson asked Vought.
Vought responded, “It’s incredibly insidious, and then add to the fact that he can’t put two sentences together and he is largely not in control of his own government,” referring to Joe Biden.
“You have almost an unelected president with individuals behind the scenes doing this,” he continued, further asserting “It doesn’t surprise me, though. I mean, these are the same people that have weaponized the Department of Justice and the lawfare.”
“I have a colleague, Jeff Clark, who they’re trying to disbar because of the care he showed on behalf of the president in dealing with voter integrity and election fraud after 2020,” Vought further noted.
“The system has thrown everything at the warriors who are on the field. You’re seeing that with Tulsi, you’re seeing that with Matt Gaetz,” he pointed out, adding “Why is all of this stuff being thrown at him slanderously?”
The full exchange is below:
Russ Vought ran OMB under Trump the first time, and hopefully will again. Here’s what he learned about how the deep state actually works.

Carlson also discussed the spiralling escalation in Ukraine with journalist Glenn Greenwald, noting that the decision to escalate the conflict with ATACMS missiles is “the most evil thing I’ve seen in my lifetime.”
Greenwald also pointed out that Ukraine doesn’t have the expertise to use the guidance system for the weapons and therefore NATO countries and the US would be actively involved in launching them at targets inside Russia.
Permanent Washington decides nuclear war is preferable to Donald Trump. Glenn Greenwald on the nihilism of our ruling class.

As we highlighted yesterday, NATO member state Sweden is sending out pamphlets advising citizens how they should prepare for nuclear war in the wake of the escalation.

This is an awesome rousing article.I am practically satisfiedh for everyone, but I hope that the more I will endure and get good results. Thank you . That appears to be excellent however i am still not too sure that I like it. At any rate will look far more into it and decide personally!
The Jews NEED their Third Jewish World War now!
They know that almost everybody hates them now and that Armageddon is not far off!
So they will let their White Slaves start the Nuclear Holocaust!
Everyone said Biden was giddy when he met with Trump because he hated that Harris couped him and that she lost to Trump but that was a Cheshire grin getting toasty by the fire. Biden was more likely smiling because he knows he is going to dump a likely world war on him as he exits the door.
“War Is a Racket is a speech and a 1935 short book by Smedley D. Butler, a retired United States Marine Corps Major General and two-time Medal of Honor recipient.
Based on his career military experience, Butler discusses how business interests commercially benefit from warfare.”War is a Racket” is an essay easily found upon the Web. All patriots and freedom-lovers need to read it, if they have not already.
An essay that adequately describes the current evils of our mega-wealthy and thus powerful tyrannical elite class forcing their New World Order upon us that leads to an eventual one-world government controlled by a hereditary elite class needs to be written. Maybe it has already been written, but I have not found it. I lack the knowledge and mental acuity to write that much-needed essay to prompt the people to action to rise up and defy tyranny, as Russia is doing against the New World Order forces.
Ahh mr.propagàndist carlson playing stupid
Oh do be quiet with your utter nonsense
Oh a wild leftist.
I tought you left earth for mars after your historic presidential defeat.
Cope harder loser.
The only stupid one here is you, Mr Irish. Whilst Putin isn’t going to start lobbing nukes just yet, there’s only a few more steps before he does. You really should read history.
You do not seem to be very popular, Chris. Why don’t you just go away? Go haunt a reddit thread somewhere.
