Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who has speculated for the last month about alleged corruption surrounding the overseas business dealings of Hunter Biden, insisted on Thursday evening that he didnt want to be involved in pounding on a man, jumping on and piling on when hes already down.
This change in Carlsons rhetoric comes after the conservative pundit claimed on Wednesday that Fox News had acquired a number of damning documents about Joe Bidens son from a source, only to have the material allegedly disappear when it was shipped cross-country.
UPS announced one day later that the flash drive containing the documents had come out of its packaging, was located by a staffer and eventually turned over to a superior, who arranged for it to be sent to Fox. Carlson was full of questions regarding this explanation and continued to hint at a conspiracy.
He contended that someone, for some reason, opened our package and removed a flash drive containing documents that were damaging to the Biden family.
Wed love to know who would do that and why, said Carlson. It would be helpful to see the envelope itself. But UPS says we cant see it because they threw it away. So here we are. We got our flash drive back, and thats great. What wed really like are some answers.

(33,992 posts)Anyone who has ever gotten their mail in a body bag knows this is a lie. The USPS does not throw damaged envelopes away. They seal them in a body bag and send them to you with an apology.

"Well the damnedest thing, see ... some guy brought a water soaked computer to a service guy, see? and he forgets about it and the guy forgets about it and never returns and the guys going to toss it and damned if it doesn't seem to be Hunter Biden's, right? Sooo ....."

(35,693 posts)He doesn't give a rat's ass about Hunter Biden and would cheerfully stomp on him if he could. But he knows he is very close to a defamation suit so he is backing off.
