Tucker Carlson Showed Up For A Speech And Ukrainian-American Protesters Were Waiting For Him

This makes me smile



https://www.politicususa.com/2022/04/04/tucker-carlson-showed-up-for-a-speech-and-ukrainian-american-protesters-were-waiting-for-him.html



One protester said, “Your heartless message to the American people who are the cradle of democracy, home of the brave, land of the free is completely unacceptable by anyone.”

Carlson’s pro-Putin propaganda is being noted by Ukrainian-Americans. In Ohio, Carlson’s support of Putin has alarmed Republicans to the point where they are concerned that Ukrainian Americans might vote Democratic in the state’s US Senate election.

Tucker Carlson is pushing Putin propaganda, but there are consequences to trying to convince the American people to fine with the invasion of a democracy and the slaughter of its people.

Carlson may be on his way to becoming a matinee idol on Russian state-run television, but in the United States, he is on the side of evil and protesters are going to make sure that he knows it everywhere he goes.

But I guess since Tuckems is also a racist, misogynist, bully, entitled frat boy, they are fine with him.

by the U.S. government it's time to redefine the word "religion".

These crooks have so much money and do nothing with it but buy political power and make more money.

Any "church" that has millions/billions in reserve and is not doing "the lord's work" with it should be taxed at the highest corporate rate.

They're freaking crooks. No wonder they worship Trump.

According to U.S. census estimates, in 2019 there were 1,009,874 Americans of Ukrainian descent representing 0.3% of the American population.[1] The Ukrainian population of the United States is thus the second largest outside the former Eastern Bloc; only Canada has a larger Ukrainian community under this definition. According to the 2000 U.S. census, the metropolitan areas with the largest numbers of Ukrainian Americans are: New York City with 160,000; Philadelphia with 60,000; Chicago with 46,000; Detroit with 45,000; Los Angeles with 36,000; Cleveland with 26,000; and Indianapolis with 19,000.[4][5] In 2018, the number of Ukrainian Americans surpassed 1 million.[6]

By themselves, they could be electorally significant in some areas. Include those sympathetic to them, and Republicans may have really painted themselves into a corner with the Russian-worship thing.

Russian worshippers, go fuck yourselves.

I think most of us can assume what kind of congregation worships there.
