“Hey, it’s Tucker Carlson,” begins the first installment of a video broadcast posted to Twitter on Tuesday evening.
Four refreshing words signaling a return to truth in broadcasting that could only be found on Elon Musk’s social media platform. Carlson compares his new show to Cold War-era broadcasting, saying that he hopes it “will be the shortwave radio under the blankets.”
And from there, the former Fox News icon immediately dives into a scathing commentary of the West’s unwavering support for Ukraine.
Carlson addressed reports yesterday that the Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine was breached, causing extensive flooding, and resulting in a torrent of media analysis claiming that Russia was behind the attack. He remains skeptical, however.
Using his trademark sarcastic delivery, Carlson cast aspersions upon Ukraine and insinuated that they may have been behind the attack.
“We can say for a dead certain fact that (Ukrainian President Volodymyr) Zelensky was not involved,” he quipped. “He couldn’t have been. Zelensky is too decent for terrorism.”
Carlson added that Zelensky was “sweaty and rat-like – a comedian turned oligarch.”

Tucker Carlson Returns, Slams Ukraine
It would be easy to dismiss Tucker Carlson’s commentary on Ukraine as a conspiracy theory, and no doubt the vast majority of legacy media will do just that.
What makes it interesting though is that on the very same day, past commentary by the media icon that was once disparaged as a conspiracy theory was proven true.
You may recall that back in September of 2022, the White House and the media were insisting the Nord Stream pipeline was blown up in an act of terrorism by Russia.

Carlson though, wasn’t peddling what the major networks were pushing on the story – including Fox at the time – and openly wondered about what “really happened” to Nord Stream and suggested that the “sabotage” might not have come from Russia.
He even went so far as to suggest the United States government was somehow involved.
Fast forward to June 6th when the Washington Post reported that Ukraine had planned to carry out an attack on Nord Stream and that the Biden administration knew about it three months in advance. Meaning they knew who was likely behind the attack, allowed it to proceed, and then knowingly and falsely blamed Russia.

Carlson, in his Twitter video, pointed out that sadly, Americans who listen to mainstream media are the least informed people on the planet.
“By this point, it’s possible American citizens are the least informed people in the world,” he said.
“‘Diversity is our strength. Trans women are women. Zelensky is Churchill. It’s all self evidently true. Doesn’t need an explanation. And don’t ask questions,” Carlson added, speaking as if he were the media, the enemy of the people.
As of this publication, Carlson’s video has shot well over 52 million views. The three major networks combined won’t see that kind of action all week.
In Tucker’s 1st new episode on Twitter, he asks:
Who organized the BLM riots?
How did Jeffrey Epstein make all his money?
Where has the $100+ billion sent to Ukraine been spent?
What really happened on 9/11?
I have a feeling we’re going to like Tucker’s new style???? https://t.co/jsihdXd11F

Carlson: Um, By the Way, UFOs Are Real
Perhaps an even more interesting aspect of the first episode of Tucker Carlson’s new show is when he tackles the topic of UFOs.
Carlson pointed out that a whistleblower on Monday testified that “UFOs are real, and so is extra-terrestrial life” … and nobody in the media batted an eyelash over the potential revelation.
“In a normal country, this news would qualify as a bombshell: the news of the millennium,” Carlson explained. “But in this country, it doesn’t count.”

Indeed, a former intelligence officer filed a whistleblower complaint with Congress alleging that the United States government has recovered multiple UFOs of “non-human origin” and that dead pilots have actually been retrieved from wreckages.
If only he had thought to add a declaration that “Hunter Biden’s laptop is not real,” maybe then the media would have reported on his claims.
The Political Insider’s own Kat Anderson has covered conspiracy theories and factual reports alike regarding the latest revelations involving UFOs extensively.
The extraordinary whistleblower claims come just days after a Pentagon chief admitted that unidentified metallic orb UFOs have been spotted “all over the world.”
Carlson noted that the media has actively tamped down the stories.
“There was nothing at all about how an alien species is flying hypersonic aircraft above our cities. Not one word,” he said. “So if you are wondering why our country seems so dysfunctional, this is a big part of the reason. Nobody knows what’s happening.”
He added: “A small group of people control access to all relevant information, and the rest of us don’t know.”
Whether he’s shredding the narrative on Ukraine or talking up UFOs, we’re certainly glad to have Tucker Carlson back broadcasting once again. If this video is any indication, there promises to never be a dull moment.
