THEYLL NEVER LET GO
Hilariously, the supposedly new program called Tucker is just days-old episodes of his show with a Russian voiceover.

The Kremlin propaganda machine has made Tucker Carlson its newest star television host, whether he likes it or not.
The former Fox News host has gotten his own show on the state-run channel Rossiya 24except its not quite as new as the channel would have people believe. The program, called Tucker. Rossiya 24, treats viewers to days-old episodes of Carlsons own show posted on X and YouTube, but with a Russian voiceover.
An episode was aired Monday night, for example, featuring Carlson discussing conspiracy theories about Lyme disease being used as a bioweapon under the title ticksnuclear weapons for the poor. The same episode, minus the Russian voiceover, was available to American social media users on May 10.
The website of the All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company features several other episodes of the supposedly new show, all of them featuring praise for Moscow, criticism of Ukraine, or grim predictions concerning the fate of the U.S.

If someone is going to spout nonsense on Russian TV, by Dimitri, it's gonna be RUSSIAN nonsense!
