    I'm still not sure what "both sides" of this issue might be. Donald Trump is sending troops to the border to protect our country from this scary caravan of women and children.

    Oh, right. The "other side" is that Donald Trump is so desperately trying to exploit this trail of human misery for political gain.

    I guess he should've just made up stuff to satisfy your preference have having "both sides" presented to this story. Sigh.

    The Independent (UK) sent a reporter to the scary caravan of refugees in Mexico. Did not find a single Middle Easterner.

    Well hen, if that's the case Tucker has a lawsuit on his hands, and I'm sure the ruling will be found in his favor by newly minted Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

    Just as long as the right continues to point out that how the press is the enemy of the people.

    And call politicians such names as "Pocahontas" and "Crooked Hillary."

    My understanding from the argument stated here is that this is a recipe for electoral success this fall, correct? Such actions will result in a successful #walkaway movement and a #RedWave? Clearly, only conservatives can attack media figures and politicians without ny electoral consequences. Or something.

    To be clear, he was sharing this story on the National Review podcast in an effort to garner sympathy from the Rich Lowery crowd and feed the "Democrats are a bunch of lawless Antifa thugs"...

    To be clear, he was sharing this story on the National Review podcast in an effort to garner sympathy from the Rich Lowery crowd and feed the "Democrats are a bunch of lawless Antifa thugs" argument.

    Consider: there has been no footage of Tucker being yelled at in public as were the heads of the EPA and DHS. The only proof we have that Tucker is being heckled or yelled at in public is that he said so. And considering the fact that he has a long record of being a proven liar, forgive me if I don't exactly take him at his word.

    Which is why I altered the headline of my post to read that poor Tucker doesn't know the meaning of takeaway. If facing the consequences of his exercising fee speech is making him feel uncomfortable, well then that's too bad. He should just order his food to go, have a staffer pick it up and leave decent people alone to enjoy their meal without being bothered by his presence.

    Wow. I'm impressed that he was still in the Big Bird suit. I thought Carol had passed away some time ago.
