Why Is The Pentagon Commenting About Tucker Carlson??!!?

Pentagon officials say 'we're a better country' now that Tucker Carlson is off the air

"We’re a better country without him bagging on our military every night in front of hundreds of thousands of people."

Officials at the Pentagon are cheering the departure from prime time of Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who frequently took aim at the US military over their diversity policies, war in Ukraine, and lack of accountability to the American public.

"We’re a better country without him bagging on our military every night in front of hundreds of thousands of people," one senior Department of Defense official told Politico, speaking on conditions of anonymity.

"Good riddance," a second official said.

When asked by the outlet to respond to Pentagon officials’ cheers over his departure, Carlson told Politico by text message, "Ha! I’m sure."

The first senior DoD official said Carlson "made a mockery" of the free press and "repeatedly cherry-picked department policies and used them to destroy DoD as an institution."

Carlson frequently took aim at military leadership on his show, including Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley. Carlson called for his firing after a direct order from Milley read, "If Donald Trump refuses to leave office, the United States Military must remove him by force and you must give that order."

Carlson slammed Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin for his 2021 comment that "white people are part of the problem." He spoke out against the firing of a Space Force commander who was let go after voicing concerns over Marxism and critical race theory in the US armed forces. Carlson also blasted the Pentagon’s use of an "inclusion board" to lower training standards, and to prioritize identity politics over military readiness.On Monday morning it was revealed that Carlson and Fox News had...

The 90 Miles Mystery Box: Episode #2063

You have come across a mystery box. But what is inside?

It could be literally anything from the serene to the horrific,

from the beautiful to the repugnant,

from the mysterious to the familiar.

If you decide to open it, you could be disappointed,

you could be inspired, you could be appalled.

This is not for the faint of heart or the easily offended.

You have been warned.

One of the two men accused by federal prosecutors of running a Chinese “police station” in New York City purportedly has been captured on video with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and New York City Mayor Eric Adams.

A recording on March 18 appears to show Lu Jianwang standing alongside Adams at an event where Schumer also spoke. In April 2022, Lu met New York Democratic Rep. Grace Meng at a fundraising party. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, Lu was arrested last week and charged with conspiring to act as an agent of China’s government,.

Records show that since 2006, Lu has contributed at least $32,625 to New York elected officials, including Adams and Gov. Kathy Hochul.

U.S. Attorney Breon Peace said while “the station was providing some government services, like helping Chinese citizens renew their Chinese driver’s license….more troubling….is the fact that the secret police station appears to have had a more sinister use.…”.

Peace added. “An official with the Chinese National Police directed one of the defendants – a U.S. citizen who worked at the secret police station – to help locate a pro-democracy activist of Chinese descent living in California. In other words, the Chinese national police appear to have been using the station to track a U.S. resident on U.S. soil.” We’d call that hunting down dissidents living free in America.

So it would seem we’ve discovered yet another group of prominent Dem pols who have cozied up to our # 1 geopolitical foe, China.
We can now add Schumer, Adams, and Meng to a list that includes:
