Tucker Carlson followed up on the story of House Leader Kevin McCarthy renting a room in the penthouse suite of pollster Frank Luntz. Amid the details Luntz owns a 7,000 square foot penthouse apartment. McCarthy reportedly paid Luntz $1,500/month for his space. However, Carlson notes the massive penthouse has 12 bedrooms…
… which begs the question: Who else lives in the other ten bedrooms?
.
Epstein?
I was stunned by Epstein’s suicide, though probably not as much as Epstein himself.
— John McAfee
McAfee should be freed if only for his amazing wit. What it would be like to hang out him! Lol.
McAfee is right, of course, except that it’s equally likely Epstein is still alive… somewhere… wherever that might be, one can only hope his membership will eventually be removed.
Maybe the two “roommates” should forever more be named Neil & Bob….
Ok, lets use the ole Socratic method to dissect this attack by Tucker on Kevin McCarthy:
In politics, there is no coincidence, EVERYTHING is calculated in DC–everything.
IMO the attack is to get McCarthy off Liz Chaney and her war monger crew. It is a warning shot. My guess is there is a lot more they can disclose unless McCarthy folds.
It seems weird that Cheney or others on her behalf would smear McCarthy when he helped her to get that Conf chair position . . . or maybe not weird at all . . . A slap-down for Kevin to warn him ” who do you think you’re dealing with here . . . you THOUGHT you finessed that for me . . .”
Boehner did the same thing to Jim Jordan. Boehner folded on his threat and Jordan held strong on his beliefs. Boehner ran away crying. Jordan still fights!
Given the timing, that would make sense and I don’t doubt that may be one of the reasons for the attack on McCarthy. But I wonder if there is another aspect to this.
I would prefer 10 guys paying 1500 a month to just those 2 who I believe are gay not that there’s anything wrong with that.
I want a tour. And I’ll be looking for the secret hotel-style common door between the bedrooms.
The Rs will be shopping for gay support in 2022. This is a flagpole story just to see how the base reacts.
Greg, flag pole or circus tent pole?
“Luntz is a stand-up guy… and probably a commie. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”
– Joe McCarthy, Kevin’s evil twin
Closeted gays in politics=BLACKMAIL
Eh? Being queer is normal?
Seinfeld
Tucker is no fan of Cheney or the war party – see video I posted above
You are exactly right. He may be GOPe, but Tucker is by far not a neo-con. Too many imbeciles here who are turning Sundance’s post regarding McCarthy being in bed with Big Media and the GOPe, into him being in bed with another man. Whatever game is being played, its not a gay one and overgrown children are missing the point.
McCarthy had a multiple-year affair with Rep. Renee Ellmers of NC. She was married.
The comment Maximus-Cassius made that you added to here did it miss the point. It was trying to deduce what this whole situation is about. Calling people imbeciles doesn’t help them ask the right questions, like Maximus did.
McCarthy renting a room from Luntz creates a conflict of interest if nothing else. It creates a business relationship, which is problematic for a lobbyist and a politician. If they are closeted, that leaves McCarthy open to blackmail.
But like Maximus said, the real puzzle is why is this being used as weapon now? A man like McCarthy doesn’t “rent a room” from someone like Luntz without every person in DC knowing about it. So why spill the beans now? What is the game?
I’d have to say McCarthy thought this secret would remain secret because he is a power player. Someone wants to let him know he’s not as high up on the totem pole as he thinks he is. So which faction is it that is attacking him?
Yep, McCarthy provided cover for Evil Queen Jr © via secret ballot in the first attempt to dethrone her, and she survived because gopers had no accountability.
This second voted will be wide open because Defanged Kevin has no teeth with which to keep gopers on the reservation and off the record. Most don’t want to go on record supporting HRH Liz. This time…ding dong, the Witch is dead. Via hit squad.
Who’s next?
Oh really? I thought the news reports said even this vote will be secret ballot so all she has to avoid is a 2/3 vote AGAINST her.
But, of course, unlike conspiracy theories I could be wrong. I just sit around and wonder why so many people like to claim they support PDJT when working against his candidates, either in this conference leadership position or when it comes to his endorsements for senate. Whyever some of you folks do it, it itsnt because you support the President.
.
TAKE DOWN MCCARTHY TOO….
The guy cannot put a coherent sentence together, in my opinion. He allows Cheney and several other Impeachment people to serve in house leadership positions. Check out the Whips.
Steve Scalise thinks it is a good idea to bring Donna Brazile as a date to Viceroy Biden’s installation. McCarthy thinks it is ok to live with Frankypoo.
These people ultimately do not give a darn about us voters. Let us not forget Paul Ryan gave Republican party money to Carter Lamb, a Democrat in PA. If you as a donor gave to the House, maybe your dollar went to a Democrat. Plus, this is what was made public. Who knows what else was not.
I don’t know how many people are watching Charles Ortel take apart Matt Shlapp’s corruption and CPAC, but with all of the IRS targeting of teaparty people one has to ask why wasn’t Shlapp and CPAC targeted. It was ordinary people targeted. Charles will be live on YouTube and Rumble with Jason Goodman today. Usually around 3EDT.
These are all U-DC. Behind the curtain, stuff happens we do not know is happening. Every now and then, information comes to light that these people need to sort of address in order to make it appear stuff is being addressed.
I cannot believe people still watch Fox. I shut them off in 2015 with the rest of TV, Hannity in 2010.
Growing up in the R party, and my 2 year election and voter fraud experience taught me Republican leadership does not actually like to work. These people like to eat and make speeches while looking important.
I agree, they simply pretend to address our grievances. But nothing “comes to light” that the elites don’t want to come to light. Someone decided it was time to screw over McCarthy, I’d like to know who and why.
But no matter who is behind it I hope he goes. You are spot on about the party’s “leadership.” Lazy people who want to manage the “opposition” by writing think pieces and enjoying themselves at conferences, banquets and parties. They will sell out their mothers to keep themselves in comfort.
Mittens niece Ronna McDaniel comes to mind as I read your description of the RNC leadership.
Yes, at the very last, McCarthy must now offer the right a scalp, and that will naturally be Liz’s. But I imagine it goes deeper.
Why not his own?
Maybe Liz Cheney has pull with Fox News and she’s taking revenge out on Kevin.
Yes. Liz daddy’s Rolodex said to call Paul Ryan.
Where does Frank the Facilitator figure in this equation . . . did he set up Kevin McCarthy?
Does Frank consider himself a “top dog” in the Inner Circle (or maybe they just pat him nicely and make him think so)
Is he right now doing a Focus Group on how to angle this – mean people who are attacking Liz are also making disparaging remarks about Chinese people . . . are also possibly homophobic if we can obscure the conflict of interest angle . . . that people really react on the “room mate” phrase . . .
7,000 square feet in DC . . .
I just can’t past “7,000 square feet” while envisioning that nitwit who thought John McCain was a “genuine hero” (or at least attempted to persuade others he was)
if there were any enterprising reporters around, wouldn’t they pull the assessor’s reports on everything owned at 616 “E” Street NW, Washington DC 20004 (Clara Barton bldg)
Rita Cosby – are you out there? (she always talked about her sources, like she had shoeboxes full of business cards, all neatly organized)
then if we saw some old-fashiioned “real reporting” this could turn into something far bigger than Watergate and all the other gates . . .
maybe with the sincere and profound appreciation for health care workers during this horrible pandemic they (whoever is running this 12-bedroom operation) thought the dumb people in America would never suspect shenanigans in a building named after the most famous nurse in American history, Clara Barton (founder of the Red Cross)
I think the reason it doesn’t make more waves is because all of DC is up to something.
People see this for what it is. Washington DC is the most corrupt city on the planet. One faction is pulling a hit job on the member of another faction. I just wish the factions would openly declare themselves so it would be less confusing for the rest of us.
What’s mean about attacking Liz? She is not philosophically a true conservative nor was she a true supporter of our past potus DJT. She and all other rinos should leave the gop and join their true bed mates in the dnc.
But don’t you know, Mitt Romney has been a Republican all of his life! Now bend over like a good little plebe.
She was said to be in talks with Paul Ryan.

hmmm?
THIS makes sense!
Maybe it has something to do with Tuck’s split lip. Who knows? All kinds of weird going on here.
Speaking of Tucker’s split lip–don’t have makeup for that kind of thing? Cold sores and such don’t discriminate, but surely the makeup geniuses can cover that up.
Geez…..
It was like that in the last vid SD posted, too. Perhaps this is the best makeup can do? Ouch.
The GOPe always shoot themselves in the foot. They are the Apple Dumpling Gang on steroids.
Well, it would appear this RINO in sheep’s clothing has finally been found out…this guy Loathes Trump. Like McConnell over in the Senate…they dispose America and have been purchased (CCP).
As for replacing Cheney…I’ll accept Rick Scott (FL).
HE11 NO.
Lol. Rick Scott.
Now that there is funny, I don’t care who you are.
No way! That guy is a weasel
..not just .. a weasel but CERTIFIED WEASEL !!!! take him down too!!!!!
night of long knives- in GOPe is loooong overdue !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are glad even VSG /ESG PDJT realize …movement ..revolutionary movement such MAGA can not be done with grahams,cheney,murkowski,mcconnel,mccarthy and many others-RID OFF THEM ALL -ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paul Ryan is that you?
Well, he’s a senator. Not sure how that’s supposed to work.
Don’t over think things. More importantly, don’t try to mislead treehouse readers down some bogus rabbit hole like you just did here. Tucker is revealing the RINO spies within the “republican party,” and showing the People how they operate. Frank Luntz and Kevin Mccarthy are liberals disguised as Republicans so they can further the liberal agenda, just like Liz Cheney. We call these people RINOs, and they are currently being exposed all across the country. Thank you Tucker. Thank you Trump. Watch out for trolls, they’re everywhere and they can be difficult to identify.
ALL OF CONGRESS is a mass gelatin clop of fecal matter stirred by their self importance.
These people need to be ignore while marched into the Potomac
No less than Sundance has labeled Tucker as “controlled opposition”, so I’m not leading anyone anywhere.
While it is possible to overthink this, my questions are valid and worth considering in the absence of additional information.
But as to your inference that I’m a troll…..I consider that insult worthy of a physical response. Yup, I’m old school–and capable.
Since Tucker lost that package and followed that up with not wanting to “pile on” re Hunter Biden, “controlled opposition” seems to be an apt description. If he comes up with anything substantial, great . . . that Charlie Brown and Lucy routine with the football was part of my early training.
He wanted to keep his job at Fox, and no reason to lose his career going after Biden when the establishment had it out for Trump.
I agree that tucker is clearly controlled opposition. Due to the farcical degree of gaslighting and open hostility toward any and all that is true and legit, I believe it’s fair to say we are at war.
If he is controlled opposition, he is terrible at it, and not good value at all.
He is certainly doing dammage to key Uniparty members, that are bonafide controlled opposition players. None of the future Uniparty candidates are benefiting from these assaults.
Do you Trust Nikki, Marco, Tim, Pence, etc any more now, than you did previously ?
Legit 45 turned many patriots into suspicious cats. Making it a little harder sneaking a fraudulent candidate in now.
Cui Bono? McCarthy would have kept white knighting for Dead Eye Dick’s daughter until Tucker hinted at his secrets. Now she’s running to Rat Ryan asking him to muzzle Tucker, who has no love for the Vulcan’s after Scooter Libby, a close friend of his, was framed by Rummy for outing Valerie Plame. This hit came from Trump World, not Cheney. She wants a network gig of her own when she gets voted out of office, so she’s making a martyr of herself.
She already worked for Fox as a contributor before she was an elected official. She already could have any job she wants in or out of Government.
But here’s the dilemma for Ryan (if Liz is going to him to quiet Tucker or even have him fired):
Ryan is stuck between a rick and a hard place if that is the case. If Tucker is fired or silenced- the gig is up, everyone will know 100% Fox is owned bu the libs. If Ryan does nothing well, Tucker can continue these stories- i haven’t come to a conclusion as to why he’s exposing this stuff.
Either way- GOPe people are on the ropes.
I’ve always enjoyed your comments Maximus. You engage in critical thinking, which is exactly what the left is trying to eradicate.
🙂
Franz Luntz has been advising Republicans for decades. They all know exactly who he is. They seem to be trying to push a narrative that they were fooled or misled by him; the evil secret liberal.
They were not. They knew exactly who he was. All of them, and they were fine with it.
I would also guess that they all have known about his living arrangements. DC is like junior high school in terms of gossip.
So why now?
Because the slimebag RINOs like Jeb and Boehner are trying to slither back into power while Trump is fighting for control of the GOP.
is it a move to remove mc carthy from trump’s orbit. really? isn’t mc carthy the guy who said he was at the capitol on jan 6 and didn’t see anybody from antifa/blm? didn’t mc carthy accuse trump of being guilty of inciting a riot? you may be guilty of subterfuge.
I think McCarthy is weak, pliable. He worked with Trump way more than Deep State Ryan would ever consider doing. I would wager he is getting rid of Cheney, as some sort of deal with Trump.
Perhaps it’s a combination of that and the fact that she is exposing them as Decepticons to the masses who haven’t been awakened yet and they can’t have that. Also, donations are suffering.
Trump loves Stefanik; I am guessing he had something to do with her being chosen as Liz’s replacement.
McCarthy backstabbed Trump on January 6, and now Trump is returning the favor.
I think he’s working through McCarthy to get Cheney out and Cheney and her faction are going after McCarthy as payback.
Considering the GOPe’s modus operandi – lose and then beg for money while whining about the “evil Democrats” – I’d go with your last bullet point as the most likely.
I don’t see Tucker as being “controlled opposition”, Hannity yes, Tucker not at all!
Tucker has been fearless in going after the GOP establishment. In February Tucker made a scathing attack on Liz Cheney in a segment titled “Who is Liz Cheney and what does she stand for?”
In the segment Tucker went after Cheney for repeating Democratic talking points attacking Trump voters as “white supremacist’s” and concluded that Cheney is only interested in killing people in more wars so she says what she needs to say in order to get along with the war-party in D.C.
AMEN!!!
Look closer. Tucker is controlled opposition. Controlled opposition only works if they can make you THINK they are trustworthy by exposing some things and that way when he torpedos things that REALLY MATTER, like a stolen, fraudulent election you believe him, because you THINK he is legit.
Nonsense.
It’s probably no more nonsense than any other speculation here.
How many times were we “faked out” by Barr’s aggressive statements in interviews or pressers? That was controlled (fake) opposition.
There is definitely a motive behind Tucker being green-lighted by FNC to attack Luntz and McCarthy, but it’s likely a bit more Machiavellian than has been suggested so far.
It is hard for us normies to think like machiavelli .
The machster would have no trouble believing and arguing that the Dem Gov pushing Covid interested the nursing homes was design to make headlines. Death of Innocents at the hand and of a horrible disease released by a political advisary. A cynical amoral grasp for power and headlines.
Real people.dont want to believe.that is possible except rare exceptions, Hitler and Pol.Pot
The truth of course is souless sociopaths are everywhere. They will sacrifice anything and anyone if the calculous works for them.
One family in example Hunter uses his niece, Joe uses his son Jill uses Joe.
A dynasty of evil at play.
Spot on.
Amen.
“Souless sociopaths are everywhere”. So very true.
My question has been, since forever, what do these people gain from subjugating other folks to their evil whims? Is it just the control of others and the feelings of power which follow that path?
Or what? Perhaps, its just an evil lust for dominance which drives them.
With the leftists it seems to make no sense. To me. I’m not a spring chicken(79 y.o.) and I’m still pondering those questions.
Like the corporations going “woke” at the expense of over half of their customer base. Why? That is irrational and makes no sense. As coke is discovering, pissing off at least half of your consumers is not a good idea. Now they are trying to backtrack on their stupid decision to do so.
I guess there is no reasoning with the “useful idiots” in our society, I gave that up a long while ago. They don’t have a good leg to stand on, so I don’t engage with them anymore. Usually, I’m capable of just laughing at them and moving on, without turning my back on them. Never know what a sociopath(some psychopaths) will do when frustrated or pissed off.
Just sayin’.
Yes, the sociopaths just want more power and money. They want to be the richest, most powerful, most popular, etc. They want to be the gods of their own universe, and that means being above everyone else.
Christianity is one of the best anecdotes to this. Of course sociopaths can even find ways to abuse power within the church. But Christianity emphasizes humility, empathy, compassion and service. It stresses sacrificing oneself for the sake of others, the strong are expected to take care of the weak. And so within a Christian culture and society, the sociopaths have to pretend to be decent people to get ahead. They must try to hide their evil intentions. This means they behave much better than the sociopaths in less philanthropic cultures.
This is what we are witnessing, with the abandonment of our Judeo-Christian culture comes the rise of evil. It’s what always happens when a society becomes “decadent,” the amoral sociopaths drop their masks and the horrors ensue.
Exactly. Lou Dobbs has total editorial control written into his contract. He could say whatever he wanted to say. That’s why he had to “go on vacation” so often when big things happened. They couldn’t control the words coming out of his mouth.
Tucker? He doesn’t have that kind of independence. I like Tucker, he started the Daily Caller and in spite of their faults they did have reporters willing to expose the Russia hoax early on. Tucker knows all about what has been happening in the GOP the last 40 years. I think he supports the MAGA agenda, but his hands are tied. He throws as many truth bombs in as he can without getting fired, but at the end of the day he has to say what his bosses at Fox want him to say.

Thank you for that reminder.
When you read what he said in the DM article it is not a million miles away from what Cheney says about PDJT.
Care to elaborate. What exactly is non-sense?
100% correct
Because destroying Rinos is controlled opposition…. and black is white and up is down.
Define destroy? What difference exactly does “destroying” McCarthy do, if that is even what Tucker has done with this piece. There are dozens of RINO’s in congress to take McCarthy’s place. What does Tucker do with information that REALLY matters or could REALLY make a difference, or could REALLY open the eyes of the American people. Did he investigate election fraud?
Whatever Carlson may be, whatever his motives, He hits the right notes 95/100. That’s far and above anyone else at Fox(Lou had the best average).
As for Fox, as a “conservative” leaning organisation, they are absolutely controlled opposition. When Ailes was forced out, things went downhill particularly fast. Most folks simply didn’t want to see it.
Agree.
Carlson may be friendly with many in the GOPe, but he is not “controlled” by them as are many, like at National Review or The Bulwark 🙂
Fox is GOPe, and Tucker works for Fox. He may be a good guy, but he still has to do the bidding of his masters to be allowed on tv.
This is life, no one will ever agree with you 100%. Your allies are those who you can agree on 80-90% of the fundamental issues, the ones that are most important. I hope Tucker falls into that category.
No, he is controlled by his globalist masters. Look it up. It is not difficult.
EVERY SINGLE MAINSTREAM NEWS MEDIA OUTLET PRINT AND TV IS OWNED BY THE SAME 6 GLOBALIST COMPANIES. ALL OF THEM.
Tucker is wrong. She is an APOLOGIST MORON.
Hey MORON, I just did a GOOGLE search on “Hillary Clinton What Happened?” and this is what I got:
About 4,640,000 results (0.60 seconds)
And that is just videos of her HYPING her WhineFest on every station and in every rag about how Russia-Russia-Russia helped TRUMP steal the election from her. Plus this, plus that, and a little bit more of this and that.
And that went on for 4 LONG YEARS WITH ZERO PROOF, FROM ANYONE, ANYWHERE.
Puh-lease.
This footage helps me understand the conversation I had with a leftist couple today. Thank you. From 54.- 1:19
Everything like:
1. Covid-19
2. Russian Collusion Hoax
3. BLM Riots
4. January 6 Capitol Police deaths
5. Covid-19 2nd wave before election.
Interesting analysis.
Crippling a house win would put Trump off wanting to run in 2024
You get it. 😉
It doesn’t matter if Jesus Christ himself ran in 2020, for as long as the traitors who stole the election are not punished but left to roam free, NO one the traitors do not want will EVER win another national election. That of course means that America is essentially gone, at least as far as it being a free nation where the rule of law has ANY force at all. Unless it is used by those traitors to persecute their enemies, something they are doing quite well already.
We punish them by working hard to secure our elections at the state and local level, so they can’t cheat again. We need to organize and do everything we can to win again in 2022 so their fraud will be too obvious for the world to deny. When they lose all credibility, their downfall will be unstoppable.
This is the first step to collapsing the system. That’s where we are, the USSR in the 1980’s, when the inevitable, slow moving and hidden collapse of the commie system was speeding up and coming to head. The decline has been happening for decades, and is speeding up. PDJT was positioning us to come out of the decline in a stronger position. The left wants to use the decline to bring about communism. I say let’s blow down the whole house of cards, build back on the local level.
Divide the Republican Party by pitting them against each other, and conquer.
The Uniparty vs the real Republican Party.
Were there no other apartments available in DC that McCarthy could rent???
Not for $1500 in a 7,000 SF penthouse.
Carlson has handlers that have determined he needs to build street cred with the base. That simple. He is being groomed for a future POTUS run. He is a windsock being blown this direction, rather than being principled. This is an opportunistic hit intended to give him conservative bonafides, but at least to me, is transparent opportunism. Do I like seeing McCarthy swinging from the yardarm? Yes. Do I respect Carlson more for this take-down effort. No.
Tucker has been pretty consistent over the years. He is an elitist, but he’s not a sociopath. He doesn’t despise MAGA, he understands it. Tucker is believes in having a “ruling class,” but he also sees just how corrupt and evil that ruling class has now become.
McCarthy is the classical example of a rino as he spent time inside Trump’s administration doing anything and everything he could to prevent Trump from accomplishing anything. One of the last of those derailments was his successful effort to allow Sydney Powell to get a top security clearance and a space in the White House, something disclosed by Patrick Byrne who was present for at least one of McCarthy’s tactics that did stop Powell despite Trump giving an order that is be done.
This rino is more traitor than republican, something that applies to far too many hiding under the gop mantle.
Kellyanne Conway use to work for Frank Luntz. ?
https://theweek.com/speedreads/685803/kellyanne-conway-once-made-frank-luntz-try-speedo-friends-could-laugh
…..and look who she’s STILL married to. . . . . a limp-wristed Lincoln Project fruitcake.
and how quiet the WH was once she left to “take care “of her bratty kid .The leaks were cut in half .
Never understood why Trump never told Conway to put a muzzle on that dog or else. And with the McConnell thing, why the hell would Trump make his wife the Secretary of Transportation. Picking people was never his strong suit. He’s had at least six to ten bad appointments and in DC that is not considered a coincidence.
Turtle would only confirm certain people. Maga people were sidelined. They would not be confirmed. I think the Establishment boxed PDJT in. Surrounded him with resistance idiots. It why maga needs to take the states GOP over. To remove the establishment.
That’s just it – PDJT wasn’t from or a part of “DC”. The bad results for those appointments were the result of deliberate efforts by experienced, professional liars to convince the new President of people’s qualifications and alleged loyalties.
My guess is that the selling point was prospective appointees’ documented support of the GOP. What the brand new resident of DC – the President – didn’t realize was that loyalty to the GOP did not often translate to loyalty to MAGA.
The biggest part of this is that the FBI controls who can have clearance to work in many of the jobs, and they would not give the green light to any of Trump’s people who were not already compromised.
Excellent.
From where we sit these looked like very bad picks. If we have learned anything about Trump in the past 5 years, everything he does and says is ‘strategic.
Being a DC outsider, he repeatedly made the mistake of trusting DC insiders for their advice. McCarthy is the perfect example of this, though it is just one of many. Look at his involving Ivanka and Kushner, neither of whom had ANY business inside the WH.
Keep your friends close.
Conway risked being blacklisted by the GOP for helping PDJT win. That’s why he felt loyal to her and brought her on board to the White House. I think her husband was playing the never Trump card to make sure they would be able to keep getting work after PDJT left office. The problem is he played the role too well, and let their kids be brainwashed by the liberal schools in DC. It all exploded in their faces and threatened to ruin their family forever. A cautionary tale about being two faced mercenary.
Kellyanne is a thorough p.r. professional, not an ideologue. I think her resume made that clear from the outset. She stuck with Trump as her “client” in the election and in the White House in the face of merciless opposition. So she’s fine in my book.
And is very close to Pence and Cruz.
Is this really just another blackmail setup like Epstein Island? Sure smells that way…
Going from memory here… but didn’t Lin Wood mention on his Twitter Acct before it shut down that McCarthy was having an affair with a woman who was not his wife?
I don’t think they are having an affair. The cheap rent in a luxury penthouse is a financial favor, and Luntz is a lobbyist. But DC is so dirty, I don’t know why they expect anyone to care. It seems more like a shot across the bow to McCarthy, showing him who’s really in charge.
I don’t know but I think somehow we are a threat to the RNC and that’s why they are backpeddling now in supporting President Trump and “America First” in order to raise money and for votes in ’22. I guess they can’t fake all the votes and they must need us.
Howsoever ..so we need them outside of secretarial stuff .
The RNC will NEVER get another penny from me as long as they continue to lie that they are conservative when they are just thinly veiled self-serving cowards who support the marxists now in control.
it’s not the Deciples.
disciples.
D’sypels.
Wondering why Dick Cheney, the former CEO of Halliburton, would rather see Biden and the Lunatic Left put Halliburton, Exxon and Chevron out of business while making Tesla stock bounce off $4,000 a share? At the same time President Trump was making the United States energy independent! I’m scratching my head on that one, Guys????
I’ve been wondering the same thing. And Dick sure has dropped out of sight. Maybe the answer is Hide’n Biden syndrome?
Big Oil lusts after a compulsory world wide carbon credit trading system. The models propose they will be issued with tradable free credits.
Eventually compulsory carbon credit trading can be expected to equal currency and interest rate derivates in value. Big Oil will control a vast treasure trove of those credits.
Dick understands that solar, wind and batteries can never provide the energy required, that’s a virtue signalling fantasy of the easily led soft western middle classes. Dick wins both ways.
Always follow the money and ask qui bono
derivatives, perhaps? lol
Apologies for the typo, effendi.
Thank god you got what I intended to write.
Obviously, there are forces at play in this struggle that even Sundance doesn’t understand. When a multi-millionare oil man like Dick Cheney is willing to cut his own throat…just so he can cut ours!
He’s not cutting his own throat….. which means you don’t understand what I wrote.
I do now! It just seemed hard to believe oil companies would benefit from carbon credits, Write? Maybe I don’t understand how the credits will work!
I don’t believe oil companies want anything to do with carbon taxes.
Straight up Carbon taxes are not what this is about, it’s about a market for Carbon Credit derivatives they regard as a perfect hedge against woke government attempting to increase the price of fossil electricity by subsidising the uneconomic alternatives. Just as GM made more from its finance arm than making cars, Big Oil has many options.
It was Trumps talk of putting Hillary behind bars. He figured dickey might be next…. Or Syria and who owns the oil company who will be drilling on the Golan.
Cheney is a corporatist, between the Bush’s, James Baker and Cheney they corporatized the middle east. No peace allowed. President Trump brought amazing changes everywhere and peaceful actions in the middle east, amazing. Cheney looters have never been for peace.
Perhaps he is a Globalist?
Price per barrel is $65. But consumer gas prices have almost doubled. Gas companies are making a killing. No more complex than that. It’s called price gouging.
If this isn’t the political end for McCarthy I’ll be surprised.
Could have been worse though, he could be sharing a house with Mitch.
It won’t help Liz.
Except for a few in Congress like Jordan, you can randomly target the rest of the Republican House and all the Republican Senator primaries for removal.
Sharing an apartment with another Congress critter would be ok, plenty of them do that – DC is nor cheap.
Issue is that McCarthy is renting from a pollster/lobbyist – and there is room for 10 other people. So is anyone else living there, and what sort of DC power-networking is going on?
“he could be sharing a house with Mitch.”…. begets….
“Sharing an apartment with another Congress critter would be ok,”
I keep forgetting the US has no understanding of sardonic irony.
How does Frank afford it?
There’s a reason so many politicians become lobbyists. It’s quite lucrative.
Who is going to pay for 200 Primaries?
As well as finding and selecting and VETTING solid MAGA candidates in ALL OF these districts?!?
Who is paying for that?!?
I note that in 2018 & 2020 it was not even possible for the then President to do it.
Who is going to pay for it now?
If you can primary the 10-15 worst Republican House Members starting with those who voted to impeach you will be doing well.
And of course selecting Strong MAGA candidates for all the available Senate Seats.
Who is the MAGA Republican in New Hampshire or Alaska?!?
Or Oklahoma?
How did we get here?
The answer is we didn’t get here.
“They” got there, because We weren’t paying attention.
sudance, Do Not Pause.
Ace and Gary, is that you?
Just a sign of the system of control.
Some commenters on this thread have lost their minds with ridiculous attacks on Tucker Carlson. I for one appreciate TCT’s show bringing so many things to light lately.
things are farther away then they appear
Tucker isn’t close to MAGA and his boss is a globalist scumbag named Ryan
the question is Tucker off the reservation or
is he marching to his puppet masters.
Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.
Tes, and we will keep doing so because it is the truth, and we like to see you squeal. When will you realize Faux is not your friend? It’s called BCS.
These people are trolls. If Tucker is “controlled opposition,” then what in God’s name is McCarthy? Yeesh.
McCarthy is not too smart to put himself into a compromising situation by renting space from Frank Luntz.
I couldn’t agree more. It’s gone all the way to Q level nuttiness.
I think that trusting Fox is the same as “trusting the plan.” Last I checked Tucker works for Fox. I like him, but he doesn’t have total control over what he puts on the airways. Taking what you see on TV with a grain of salt is the sign of a sane person.
Hehehehehe….y’all lookin in the wrong place! “Someone” wants to derail McCarthy as a pontential Speaker Of The House. “Someone” dosnt want a Ryan clone in that position when they get to the White House. Follow the bouncing golf ball…..
Give us a break. Ryan was finished years ago.
He said “Ryan clone.”
Good article in Politico about Cheney that should give conservatives in Wy the chills. The article basically spells out the battle plan to get Cheney reelected. Don’t laugh. They are saying she can safely pull 36% in primary and they lay out the plan to flood the field with other Republican candidates in the primary to divide up the votes. She has the plenty of money and backing of many Wy industries.
Before you laugh, there is this quote that should give you pause:
“Cheney staffer. ‘She has some powerful industries behind her here in the state, and they’re sticking with her.’ …. the new Kinzinger-aligned super PAC is also committed to defending Cheney. A person close to the group, which was formed to aid Republicans willing to buck Trump, said its donors view Cheney’s reelection as a top priority.” ….
MORE IMPORTANTLY…
….”And then there’s Wyoming’s election law that allows voters to change their registration on the day of the primary. There are not many Democrats in Wyoming — Joe Biden got less than 27 percent of the vote there in 2020 — but that rule would allow Democrats and independents to boost Cheney in her proxy fight with Trump, should they wish.”
So if you wonder why all the lefty sites have so many, many articles of Cheney making her sympathetic due her hatred of Trump, it is because they plan to have the Dems cross over and vote for her in the primary. Darn. I wish we had people using that kind of strategy on our side. Oh wait…that’s right…we do….they are all working for Cheney.
Well done, Decepticons. Well Done. CLap, clap, clap. In order to pull it off, they will need Luntz to give the proper polling to show Cheney is viable when she’s really not. I think that’s why Tucker is going after Luntz. Perhaps it is a warning that Luntz needs to produce the polling results they need.
So anti-war Tucker is for pro-war Cheney ??????????
I think there will be tremendous pressure among her R primary opposition to strike a deal that leaves just one challenger, and rewards those who drop off.
Sounds like nonsense to me but you can believe Politico if you want to.
If there is more than 1 “Pro-Trump” candidate then that is on Trump.
Trump needs to find and endorse ONE candidate against Cheney and get all the others out of the field.
It’s pretty simple.
Luntz’s defective polling hasn’t worked in the past.
“Cheney staffer. ‘She has some powerful industries behind her here in the state, and they’re sticking with her.’ …. the new Kinzinger-aligned super PAC is also committed to defending Cheney. A person close to the group, which was formed to aid Republicans willing to buck Trump, said its donors view Cheney’s reelection as a top priority.” ….
I would like to see a revisit re Adam Kinzinger with John McCain and Evan McMullin to Syria visiting with the “Founding Fathers” of ISIS . . . Sundance provided so much insight on that . . . I want to see the “Kinzinger-aligned super PAC” become radioactive as more people become aware of Kinzinger apparently being compromised and/or not too smart to put himself in that scenario.
Maybe the GOP/Decepticons plan to slide Kinzinger into Liz’s spot if things don’t pan out for Liz on Wednesday.
Yeah, no… One Legit 45 endorsement will turn the “splitters” into Egg McMuffins.
It is interesting that in Lumps b.s. rant/fairy tale about President TRUMP’s impending irrelevance, that he outs the ONE REASON behind the social media bans/blackouts/cancellations in the 1st place. It has nothing to do with President TRUMP doing anything wrong and we know that, always have. That is all b.s.
He’s probably too stupid to realize it but he just gave their hand away, again.
It is about stifling President TRUMP into irrelevance and always has been. This is their one desire, their wet dreams, their hopes, that he be silenced forever. They have already trashed his online history.
I would like to see him put up all of his tweets online again, and anything else, so they are not lost forever.
Frankly, he should sue ALL of them. AND he should file suit against the FBI & DOJ for violating his civil rights, repeatedly.
Shiny object. Squirrel!
This stuff just gets us off the mark.
It’s full of closeted RINOs? Gotta figure Lindsay has a bed there.
But the question is “Whose name does he scream”?
If I were an R congressperson, I’d be furious. We’ve got extraordinarily bad judgment at the least, and until we find out who else is living in that penthouse, the story remains a live, hot issue. Luntz, meanwhile, sure knows what he’s doing.
Who else “rents” the other bedrooms is a good question! I suspect McCarthy is not the first politician to crash at Lunt’z penthouse (or his massive Brentwood Mansion when visiting LA) . I wonder if the rooms have concealed camera’s in them? Could Luntz be just another Jeffrey Epstein – obtaining kompomat on American politicians? It was strongly suspected (and I believe true) that Epstein worked for Israeli intelligence. We know that Luntz has a very deep devotion to that country as well (see link> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Luntz#Israel_and_the_Palestinians ). It wouldn’t surprise me if Luntz is in the honey-trap business. Good money to be made – just look at how Epstein lived.
Oh, the entire Washington DC bobsled team stays there. Frank is in first, then Kevin slips in behind him, then……….well you know.
REVEALED: Liz Cheney’s Husband Works For Chinese Communist Party-Linked Law Firm

Why did I think Lizard Liz was gay and that she was partnered with a woman?
She has a gay sister
She has 5 kids! I couldn’t believe that when I read it!
I never would of guessed. I feel bad for the kids.
Well, isn’t that interesting. This is getting very interesting. All corruption in DC is either treason(commie buddies) or child trafficking and child sex, or both. Where there is smoke, there is fire. Trump knows.
Thank you TwoLaine! We need to make this go viral
I don’t watch TV (like, never) but if I did, Tucker would have been the only one who I’d watch. The guy is clearly intelligent and I appreciate his, shall we say, elegant sarcasm.
I would not call him controlled opposition just because he might not share my personal views 100%…
If you guys want to tear down someone, the current state of the fake news media is a target-rich environment, there is no reason to start with Tucker. Don’t join forces with the left who is trying hard to cancel him.
One big ole’ grain of salt….Murdoch signs his paycheck.

When someone disagrees with you attack him/her as a troll….mind boggling thought process
You behave just like a “progressive” in a lock stepped mob.
I’ve noted that here.
Perhaps only PDJT has the necessary purity to be an approved supporter of himself.
Dear Sir/Madam, I’ve been posting on this site for about 6-7 years. No one has ever called me a troll. I suggest you learn some manners before addressing people you don’t know. Thank you.
There seems to be, a lot of time and energy spent, going after the fleas, on the giant rats backside.
Its a revolving door of kinksters
As for sexual preferences-who knows?
They probably swing both ways
Clearly Tucker knows some sh!t.
Treason pays well. All those bedrooms, so many pizzas.
Must be very small bedrooms…
What is it this discussion is all about what is good or bad for; He, She and Them?
What interests me most is what is good for “us” the American people. I care less what happens one way or another for any of them. I care about Who and What makes us better.
In any match-up with the likes of Pelosi, Schiff, Schumer, any Cheney, any Bush or any Clinton…Kevin McCarthy is a lightweight! On top of that he clearly doesn’t have the killer instinct.
WWWOW …….. Tucker said some things on the TEEE-VEEE……
Lets all stop looking at the election audits in several states !!!!
( Why fox newz exists …. for $ 200 , Alex )
cfrmedia.com
I agree who should really give a rats about; He, She or Thee?
What is important is what the politicians are doing for ME. I want an environment which is; Liberty, Pursuit of Happiness and Justice for all. I don’t care if you are; Black, White, Red, Yellow or Brown….Male, female, Queer, Morphydite, Transvestite or whatever. Just get it done so it works for the American people as America is meant to be.
I would agree , but it could affect my social credit score ….
/s/
Lol
I am perfectly capable of thinking about both the the Rinos that Tucker exposed and the audit.
Infact I can even think about more than two things in a day or a month.
Brings to mind a favorite movie scene. 🙂
“I can count all the way to six, if I have to.”
Ref. @ 3m20s:
Someone leaked that Gaetz was going around on the floor of the house sharing nude pictures. I don’t recall a name being attached to the leaker.
My thought is what goes around comes around.
Sounds like high school gossip.
Exactly.
But in politics you add the word “leaked” to the gossip – and that seems to give some air of “authenticity” to it.
“So and so passed nudie pics around” = obviously just gossip
“Someone leaked that so and so passed nudie pics around” = must be a true story
I’d like to know how close Paul Ryan and Tucker are. Let’s not forget McCarthy and Ryan were joined at hip. I never trusted McCarthy based on his relationship with Ryan.
Let’s also not forget that Tucker owned The Daily Caller and co-hosted Fox and Friends Weekend and told his reporter that it was non-negotiable that he was not allowed to do any stories critical of Fox. He quit.
https://www.politico.com/blogs/media/2015/03/mickey-kaus-quits-daily-caller-after-tucker-carlson-pulls-critical-fox-news-column-204135
By the way, the story was exposing Fox for not covering the upcoming amnesty push. Which we know now, Fox had secret meetings with Graham and McCain, Bill O’Reilly, Hannity. They figured out that they couldn’t get amnesty passed if talk radio and Fox were against it, so they got them on board.
Anybody else remember the nightly tripe from O’Reilly and Hannity about the GOP “autopsy”? How we couldn’t win without amnesty because Hispanics would hate us otherwise?
So, Tucker is above reproach??? No one tells him what to say on his show? Riiiiight!
?
I live in Florida we have a Pro Trump America First Governor in Ron Desantis. We need him to Beat Charlie Crist in November of November 2022 and i have been reading that Pompeo might run for President in 2024 and the Trump will run in 2024. Since MCconnel and those in the Gope that trued to impeach him are now being put on Notice. Its Trumps party now he will run Pro MAGA canidates even if you think they are Rinos. If he cannot beat them in the Primary. He will use them to get his and our agenda across. Read what happened in Texas a week ago. 2 Pro Trump canidates won
Who needs 12 bedrooms for their home near the office?
Is McCarthy a member of the Duggar family?
And just how well does McCarthy’s job pay that he can afford a pad like that?
Yeah, McCarthy sucks (perhaps literally). We already knew that. Looking forward to his departure.
If McCarthy is the takedown target, that moves Scalize (a Trump ally) through the ranks. Might be Trump moving chess pieces around from outside with Tucker’s help.
Scalise is a “Trump ally”?!?
Never heard that before.
Based on what exactly?
I have to agree with you Julian. Scalise seems like establishment to me.
He may have a soft spot for Trump though after the way Trump reached out tio him after the shooting…I don’t know I still don’t trust an establishment politician though.
Julian, Scalise sure didn’t seem like much of an ally when he harshly criticized Trump for January 6th, claimed Lizzy as a friend after she voted to impeach Trump and defended her when some attempted to oust her from the leadership.
I think he wrote off Trump and hailed the return of the Uniparty after the election steal. If he is now considered a Trump ally, it’s out of necessity.
Don’t overanalyze. Just celebrate. More GOPe gone, the better. MAGA is Boss.
Yep, way too much gossipy BS in all these social media stuff. What is important gets lost in the tabloid maze. The politician gets it done or he and she do not get it done. For me it is what is foremost. The “naughty or nice” takes a backseat.
Is there any information about the other people that rent from Luntz are? Are there any other renters?
What would knowing who does or does not have to do with the price of tomatoes?
Find out who is paying Luntz and you will understand how he spins things. He is obviously well paid for not listening to us. Mc Carthy isn’t much better.
“The only way I can lose this election is if I’m caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy”.
Rush re Luntz 11/4/20.
RUSH: I have a different take on the pollsters. A lot of people say, “Oh, man, they got it wrong again, Rush. Look at that!” No, they didn’t, folks. They did their jobs. The pollsters had a mission, and it was accomplished. Frank Luntz is just running cover for ’em. Conventional wisdom is the pollsters screwed up. Conventional wisdom is that the pollsters got it wrong again.
If the polls were not intentionally wrong, the Democrat National Committee would be screaming their heads off. But they’re not. The Democrat National Committee is not mad at these poll results, are they? You haven’t heard anybody express anger, except maybe Luntz. Because I’m telling you the polls did exactly what the Democrat National Committee wanted ’em to do.
The polls went out… They don’t reflect public opinion, they shape it, and they went out and they tried to suppress the vote. They didn’t succeed because the Trump vote was overwhelmingly large. But they still did their jobs. The Democrat National Committee is not mad at ’em. The New York Times is not mad at its polling unit. The Wall Street Journal is not mad at its.
Frank Luntz Blames Us! – The Rush Limbaugh Show
FOX and Luntz have been playing this election time charade for a while now. Look at fox. Who gets all the ratings? Who puts them on top? The 8-11 time slots. Yet Luntz and Rove and McCallum (cancelled show since) and Baer (horrible ratings) and Perino/Stirewalt (shuffled/fired) Wallace get all the election night coverage. Tucker pops in for 10 minutes at 8pm while Maddow rallies the troops all night on the ‘competition’.
thinking Tucker et al should resent the crap out of this (and quit)…. considering the fall in ratings since.
At some point you have to assume its theatre.
Carlson/Hannity/Ingraham gladly carry the water for the musical chairs that interact with Frank Luntz all the time.
The Frank Luntz shuffle.
Republican pollster APOLOGIZES for polls’ ‘systematic failure’ | Daily Mail Online
His rotating Focus groups.
And it goes deeper.
Per The National Pulse: The downtown D.C. residence – which The National Pulse is choosing not to name for security reasons – is owned and leased by Sotheby’s International Realty.
The company is an offshoot of the auction house Sotheby’s, whose largest shareholder is Taikang, a Chinese Communist Party-linked life insurance company “run by the grandson-in-law of Chairman Mao Zedong.” As The Wall Street Journal also notes, “most of the stakeholders are state-owned Chinese enterprises.”
The harder Tucker goes after key establishment players, the louder criticism of Carlson becomes. Make of that what you will.
The screaming and whining to force him off Fox, makes me very sceptical of the “controlled opposition” claims.
I will be very pleased the day Cheney,Luntz and McCarthy are out of the picture. And if Carlsons monologues had anything to do with it, so be it.
In January 2021, Luntz declared himself no longer a Republican
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Luntz
The only thing obvious is that Carlson is nothing but a hired gun, and that you invest trust in him at your peril.
There’s a reason why a guy who spouts maga messages has a FOX platform. And it’s not because FOX sees any of us a desirable consumer of their disinformation.
Someone who really believes what Carlson says could never stand being a part of FOX.
so, it occurs to me, is Kevin McCarthy the only person paying rent in Washingtion, DC –
what is the situation on rent in DC . . . here in California, there have been rent moratoriums . . .
McCarthy is a Paul Ryan stooge – an air head from CA and not a Trump supporter – he sucks up to trump to stay alive. He’s the weak leader – it’s intentional – Paul Ryan knew this guy is a Ken doll. So Carlson doesn’t suffer fools and phonies well – Luntz and McCarthy are a twofer. I worked with Luntz and Joe Tripper (another swamp guy) when they ran Sen. William Cohen’s political op. They were both sleazy back then (19889-91) Luntz has made a fortune selling snake oil as research – the Republicans have been to stupid to realize he’s been selling them bs for years – Democrat talking points according to TC.
according to the biden laptop luntz worked for the bidens
Sounds like Frank has a stable of RINOs…
I’m wondering how “real” this spat in fact is…
With respect to Tucker as controlled opposition…. he is sure putting out a lot of objective DATA POINTS into public domain…
And if we know anything, the God of unintended consequences is a “jealous and avenging” one…
