Sensing the disturbing similarity between what happened in Brazil and January 6, Tucker Carlson went full board yesterday in defense of the Brazilian copycats. Carlson hasn't evidence of a stolen election any more than Trump supporters do but journalism as practiced on FOX nighttime has never thought this a requirement. A difference between the two insurrections is that in Brazil the transfer of power already had peacefully taken place; the departed President is visiting in Florida, but their meaning is the same.
The Brazil uprising could spell trouble for Trump and the perceptions of his supporters. The rampaging rioters caught on video are an objective study of what an insurrection looks like, not one filtered through a lens of partisanship. Carlson tried to neutralize it: the rioters were justified.
In doing so, however, he effectively admitted Jan. 6 was an insurrection.
