Nine (!) Fox Employees Have Quit, To Work for Tucker Carlson
Plus: Updates from the Durham Hearing

And Fox is a sea of bitter leftwing liberals with like 15 actual conservatives working there, so losing nine conservatives has an impact.

By the way, the Fox producer who called Biden a "WANNABE DICTATOR" in a chyron? That producer used to work with Tucker Carlson. Maybe the "WANNABE DICTATOR" chyron was his Viking funeral.

Chadwick Moore -- the author of an upcoming Tucker Carlson biography -- revealed in a series of tweets that a number of Fox News employees have left the network in order to work with Carlson on his new Twitter program.
Shortly after the departure of longtime Fox producer Alex McCaskill -- who was fired by the network over a chyron that labeled President Biden as a "wannabe dictator" -- Moore stated that McCaskill will soon be working with Carlson again.
"The Based Chyron Guy, Alex McCaskill, was a former Tucker Carlson Tonight producer who has now left Fox News after ten years, en route to joining Tucker's new team," Moore wrote in a tweet Saturday. "He is one of at least three former producers who have left Fox to join Tucker's new venture."
"Tucker Carlson's team at Fox was extremely close. Most of them were there from the launch of the show until it's end, and they've stood by their boss in the aftermath. I write about it in my book," the biographer wrote in a follow-up tweet. "Also, quietly, many familiar faces from Tucker Carlson Tonight are refusing to appear on Fox News since Tucker was bizarrely pulled off the air--and not just the ones who got blacklisted for writing a book about him!"
A few hours later, Moore reported that even more Fox employees are leaving the network to work with their former boss again.
"My sources have now told me *NINE* former Tucker Carlson Tonight staffers have left Fox News to join Tucker on his next venture," Moore announced. "There are others who are waiting to leave as soon as a role opens up for them with Tucker. Each of the 9 approached Tucker, not the other way around."

Last night's Tucker on Twitter explored the many ways in which it is good to be the princeling son of a wannabe dictator.

Update: The left has only one weapon -- smearing people and reputational damage.

But this weapon is working less and less, because the Democrats use it on everybody, and no one pay any mind to these c*cksuckers any longer.

BREAKING - US regulator approves lab-grown chicken for sale: spokesperson

||A US regulatory agency has granted its first ever approvals to two companies to sell chicken grown directly from animal cells, paving the way for lab-grown meat to be sold to consumers.

The United States Department of Agriculture reviewed and approved product labels to Upside Foods and Good Meat, a spokesperson told AFP, with the companies adding the products would be available soon at certain restaurants.||

81 Christie shows how out of touch the GOPe really is:

“I don’t think that the government should ever be stepping into the place of the parents in helping to move their children through a process where those children are confused or concerned about their gender. And I just would say the parents are the people who are best positioned to make these judgments. And so what I’d like to make sure each state does is require that parents be involved in these decisions.

“The fact is, that folks who are under the age of 18 should have parental support and guidance and love as they make all of the key decisions of their life. And this should not be one that’s excluded by the government in any way.”

Impossible to say because Twitter has yet to roll out a 'creator content' model. So it's probably just a one-off contract with Tucker. High profile Youtube creators can earn between $14,600 and $54,600 per month with 1million subscribers.

=========

I think Christie has touched on something I've long suspected, though:

Tranny kids are almost exclusively being encouraged by their parents. It's a problem almost exclusively on the left as they try to make mules of their children in order to be part of the zeitgeist. Yes, there are going to be exceptions, but I'd bet dollars to donuts that 95% of kids under 18 seeking "gender affirming care" are being encouraged at home to do it.

Though, Christie isn't saying this because he's some sort of realpolitik monster who wants to see the other side lose in the long run. He's saying it because he's doing what's he's told by donors to keep the checks coming.

Yeah the ending they wrote is probably something he approved or liked, but one of the central themes of the series is that everything is shit and the bad guys will win. Your ending accomplishes that much better than the power fantasy ending.

247 They've been surprisingly parsimonious with their favorite weapon though: firing bullets into the back of the necks of kneeling Kulaks.

This only works when the Kulaks can't shoot back. Fortunately that is not the case in this country. For those who claim the 2nd amendment isn't working, the lack of ditches full of murdered Kulaks says its working better than you might think.

That could almost work if Martin had conceived of writing a genuine tragic series which could then lead into a sequel series set several generations later that resulted in a true heroic fantasy story, where the hero redeems the villains from the first series. Of course, that requires imagination and creativity, not to mention grit, all of which Martin seems to lack.

I will say that I absolutely love where they took Dani. She was a monster pretty much from the ending of Season 1. She was threatening to burn Qarth to the ground in episode 2 or so of Season 2.

She'd always had madness and a love of fire within her, and all of her efforts at ruling justly fell apart. There was nowhere else for her to go other than to madness.

The most entertaining part is that the show very much took her to be a bad guy by that point, making very conscious visual allusions to Hitler and the Nazi Party, and the left's AWFLs all screamed out in horror at once.

Agreed. Martin is an overrated hack who doesn't understand the epic fantasy genre as much as he thinks he does. I can easily think of a dozen or more authors who might be less well known, but have tons more talent, creativity, and resolve when it comes to finishing their stories (though to be fair, some series are deliberately open-ended).

307 295 If they had two seasons to work with it. As it was, it was ridiculous and jarring.

If the siege of Kings Landing had happened in the first four seasons, it would have taken the whole season before any assault occurred, giving the characters months to scheme and stab each other in the back.

They'd been establishing her as a fire mad tyrant for 7 full seasons. They'd also been establishing her as an ineffectual and terrible civil leader for at least 3 seasons.

The burning of King's Landing was kind of perfect as it was.

I didn't watch the show, read some of the books. Two things that tended to set it apart was the killing off of characters and intrigue focus I think. Audiences aren't really accustomed to either so it felt fresh.

2. Biden as the dictator? Sure he has the corrupt personality to want it, but nobody can buy him as a strong man who seized control, he is barely able to stand at a podium acting as the figurehead for the unknown puppet masters.

Sure, it was there. But that was one of the sources of my entertainment because everyone wanted Dani to be this awesome leader, choosing to ignore that the only time she could claim victory she was burning people alive. It's something of a cognitive dissonance that ends up revealing every effort to make her sympathetic hollow since she could never escape her madness.

She was a monster, and if you rewatch the show with the knowledge that she's going to succumb to her worst impulses in the end, it gives a different reading of her actions. She's outright a monster, and every effort to stop her is completely justified. The show ultimately agrees.

394 Consider for a second the problem of radio communications with a lunar space craft. The earth is spinning relative to the moon, which means not only are the stations on the earth which can communicate with the space craft changing, the Doppler effect constantly changes the frequency of the radio communication from each station to the space craft. In addition the changing velocity of the space craft itself changes the frequency of communications. The earth stations themselves communicate through satellites, so Doppler effects happen there too. All of this has to calibrated and maintained to make it work. The lab where I worked, The ESTL was responsible for making that all work. That is why NASA never had a manned space flight comm failure. NASA has run off all the old white men who seamlessly made the ESTL work. As a result the first unmanned Aries mission to the moon had a comm failure. Imagine how Apollo 13 would have turned out if they had lost comms with the capsule also.

That's what happens when you spend thousands of hours looking at the work of plastic surgeons and photoshop. A really good looking girl, girl next door type, is just cute. Nothing special. I understand what you mean, but I am pointing out that the sense of taste is effected by one's diet. If you develop a taste for sweet things, you require something sweeter to consider it as something special. If you never have anything that sweet, a donut with powered sugar is overpowering.

That is completely false. President Isabelita Perón of Argentina, the very first female Western head of state, merely signed off on the action for mass arrests of political enemies that later developed into the arrest, detention and murder of political opponents and their families in clandestine camps, called the National Reorganization Process. It was not an actual war. Oh, and she was deposed in a coup by the Argentine military to continue the dirty war.
