Ex-Reagan Official Says She Nearly Had A Stroke Listening to Tucker Carlson
"He started essentially apologizing for Vladimir Putin, which he does almost every night on his show,” said Linda Chavez.
A former top official in the Reagan administration said Monday that she nearly had a stroke listening*to Tucker Carlson’s positive comments about Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“It is so appalling what is taking place on Fox News,”*Linda Chavez,*who served as the director of the Office of Public Liaison in the Reagan administration, said on The Bulwark’s “Beg to Differ” podcast. “And it’s Tucker Carlson. It’s Laura Ingraham.*It’s Greg Gutfeld. Greg, by the way, he is married to a Ukrainian woman. He just had to help his mother-in-law escape Ukraine. So, I do not understand this.”

As for Carlson, Chavez said his comments nearly gave her a stroke.
“He started essentially apologizing for Vladimir Putin, which he does almost every night on his show,” said Chavez. “I got so angry. If Tucker Carlson had been in striking distance, I would have pummeled him.”
Chavez,*a senior fellow at the National Immigration Forum who left the Republican Party in 2020 to become an independent because of the rigged election lies, also blasted Fox News for fear-mongering in a bid keep the U.S. from providing any further help to Ukraine.*
“In addition to bashing NATO and acting as if NATO is somehow a threat to world peace, is that they are also trying to scare their listeners into thinking that if we do anything more ― including providing the S-300s, providing the drone switchblades, providing airplanes, or God forbid, actually setting up a no-fly zone ― that Vladimir Putin is going to launch a nuclear attack. And that it’s going to be justified, essentially,” she said.
And it’s working. Chavez said her brother-in-law, who watches Carlson religiously, is considering fleeing to Mexico to avoid a potential nuclear strike.*
In recent years, Carlson has become the Kremlin’s poster boy for Russian propaganda.
“The Russian state agencies are actually saying, ‘Use Tucker Carlson on Russian networks. Use him as much as you can.’ There was a*leaked memo*about trying to use clips from Tucker Carlson to let the Russian people know that Americans know how dangerous this is,’” Chavez said.*
 
Linda Chavez, that's a name from the past. I have her book on my bookshelf still, "Un Unlikely Conservative: The Transformation of an Ex-Liberal (Or How I Become The Most Hated Hispanic In America)." I saw in 2020 she is now a registered Independent. Neither here nor there but I wonder what percentage of people stay a member of one party their whole life vs those who switch. Or people like Linda who have been liberal, conservative and independent.

But to her point, fvck Putin and fvck Russia. As a kid of the 70's and 80's they'll always be Commies.

Putin is the textbook communist so I'm not sure why his action concerning Ukraine are a surprise to anyone.
