Alex Epstein knows what he is talking about.
Thanks for five free minutes on video.
Alex Epstein is worthy of much better venues than Tucker.
It is a start.
He testified in your Congress. I suppose that’s not as worthy as Tucker.
His book “Fossil Future” is a must read.
Please let us know when he’s invited to appear on CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, PBS, NPR, etc. Also when he’s invited to appear on state media in the UK, Australia, Canada, etc.
This ^
And that would be… never. None of them could stand the mental strain of having to think.
You mean like one of these Fake News clowns, where you get a free order
of lies with every interview?
I’m sure Alex Epstein was complaining why I’m here on the highest rating cable news program is history when I could be over at CNN.
Tucker is not news. Let’s not forget his out clause for a slander lawsuit was for his lawyers to claim….
The “‘general tenor’ of the show should then inform a viewer that [Carlson] is not ‘stating actual facts’ about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in ‘exaggeration’ and ‘non-literal commentary.’ “
She wrote: “Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson’s reputation, any reasonable viewer ‘arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism’ about the statement he makes.”
And it worked, so it must be true.
So he is hardly the show you want to get on if you want credibility. On the other hand if ratings are what you are after and you want viewers who enjoy light weight entertainment… go for it.
That was about some strumpet claiming she was defamed by Tucker Carlson’s comment about her being paid for sex by Trump.
Not a serious topic methinks.
Well then silly Tucker for letting his reputation be lowered to a humiliating level so Fox could save a few bucks. What a man.
The odds are very high you’re as clueless as Rob
Reiner & these two wannabe hosts for “The View”!
https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2022/08/28/rob-reiner-plays-dumb-about-media-burying-hunter-laptop-revelations-before-election-i-dont-know-what-they-did/
I was once accused of being you because of our common name. Seriously that’s an embarrassment, because you are a idiot.
“So he is hardly the show you want to get on if you want credibility.”
Tucker Carlson is the antidote to this kind of smug, pompous group think, that’s exactly why he’s so popular.
The same reason your opinions are universally disliked on WUWT.
I think the Tucker show is first class, although I often get too depressed after 30 minutes to watch the second half. The first 30 minutes of Tucker is the only news I watch on TV. He is reliable and accurate.
Gutfeld! and The Five are worth your time. Gutfeld said he visits WUWT.
Got to agree with you RG, Tucker’s opening monologues are incredible. I also don’t watch much other news, it is so depressing to see the deep state do the bidding of the US oligarchs and their handmaidens, the Democrat party.
I also agree with TonyF. Gutfeld is incredible and funny and the Five covers enough different topics, and usually has Gutfeld, so I will watch those shows often.
I watch Tucker for his opinions, since he usually has a slant on some facts that I have not previously considered. Any viewer who can’t separate opinion from fact should just not watch any news since that is the main fare.
Tucker’s show is the perfect venue. His monologues have become must-watch TV. He moves issue after issue to the front burners (from some obscure, simmering, back-burner where it’s been for years) each and every week. If you think otherwise, you prefer to remain uninformed, or worse, misled.
What is more worthy than appearing on the Top Rated show, pray tell?
Read this and weep, Nate.

Very little good has come of Biden’s stolen election. The one dark cloud with a silver lining is the energy mess created by him implementing the Green New Deal. Cancel KXL day one, cancel GOM leases already issued, cancel ANWAR lease process (guaranteeing the Alaska Pipeline will eventually freeze up and become useless), cancel federal land O&G leases. Result in just 18 months sky high gas and natgas prices, and diesel plus heating oil shortages.
Now we have nitwit SoE Granholm begging refiners not to export fuel, 50-60% shortages in New England, and winter coming.
There is one thing Obama got right at the end of his maladministration of endless Afghan war, Unaffordable Care Act, Paris, and Iran. Paraphrasing, “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to mess things up.”
If a president were to set out to destroy the United States, he would do just what Biden has, and is, doing.
Good news is, we in US can stop most of his stuff in the November midterm elections. Vote as if your life depends on it—because it does.
I think a high priority when this whole climate curtain fronting a new world order finishes collapsing before our very eyes in the coming monrhs, is a lot of legislation protecting life giving reliable affordable fuel and electric power, agriculture, interference in investment and markets, boiler plate added to the Constitution, property rights, interference in family, delisting the billionaire ‘charities’ and taxt the hell out of them to recover I’ll gotten gains, investigate and charge those practicing sedition and check out possible treason and crimes against humanity when the damage to the peoples of the world is tallied, defund universities and incestigate for most of those crimes, make scientisrlt have to adhere to a code of ethics in order to be able to practice, fund both sides of unsettled science, turn over education K-PhD and straighten all this out.
Only if the Democrats don’t do the same things in the 2022 midterm elections that they did in 2020. I’m very afraid that is their plan and we know the Gov. LE agencies will assist in covering it up and, it goes without saying, social media and the MSM will be all in to help cover it up and claim everyone who questions the results are idiots and traitors.
“If a president were to set out to destroy the United States, he would do just what Biden has, and is, doing.”
Or steal top secret documents (including nuclear secrets) and leave them laying round at his holiday house.
“Or steal top secret documents (including nuclear secrets) and leave them laying round at his holiday house.”
Have you seen the documents referred to, Simon? Of course, you haven’t. This is all pure speculation on your part. You can’t even wait for the facts to come in before you jump on Trump. Kind of like Merrick Garland and the Leftwing Media.
If Republicans gain the majority, Mr. Garland is gone, along with Mr. Mayorkas, and after an extended investigation, perhaps Mr. Biden.
Well Tom we know they took numerous boxes and that they contained highly classified stuff. OK I too am suspicious at the reports of the nuclear thing, but the rest….
I think you will find the Trump appointed judge who approved the legal search would have needed a lot of convincing. That would imply this is serious.
And let’s not forget he was asked twice to hand the docs over and he refused. Then got his lawyers to sign a document to say there was nothing left, all the time knowing there was. You have to admit it doesn’t look good.
More rumors, sly innuendo, and obvious lies on top of all the other rumors, innuendo, and lies slopping around disguised as ‘news’ for the last 7 years – but you’re convinced that THIS TIME it’s the real deal and THIS TIME it’s all true, the hammer is coming down on Trump, and his arrest is imminent. I can’t imagine being so naïve and continually fooled by the same things, over and over and over again. Good grief!
That Judge was NOT appointed by Trump.
Who appointed Bruce Reinhart, the Florida magistrate judge who signed off on the controversial raid of former President Trump’s private home?
On Twitter, some people have falsely stated that Reinhart was appointed by Trump. But that’s not true. Magistrate judges in Florida are appointed through a different process.
According to Politico, Trump lawyer Christina Bobb revealed that Reinhart, a magistrate judge, was the official who signed off on the warrant. She also told the news site that agents “removed about a dozen boxes of materials from the property.”
Here’s what you need to know:
Reinhart Was Appointed by Other District Judges
2014-08-20T14:27:14Z
According to Ballotpedia, Reinhart “is a magistrate judge on the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. He was appointed to the court on March 19, 2018, and his current term will expire on March 18, 2026.”
He is a graduate of Princeton University. He received a law degree from University of Pennsylvania Law School in 1987, according to Ballotpedia, which said he was an attorney in private practice before becoming a judge.
A press release issued by the U.S. District Court in Florida when Reinhart was appointed to be a magistrate judge gives a lengthy professional biography for him.
It says he was appointed to the position by the court’s “district judges.”

Simon, what about Trump having a TS/SCI personal clearance and Mar-a-largo having a TS/SCI facility clearance do you understand? NOTHING!
Complete nonsense. No one except Trump and Patel are telling that story. If he did have clearance then where is the paper work? And no he can’t just wave his hand.
There are certain benefits and privileges that come automatically with being president. He doesn’t even have to “wave his hand.”
I think you are tied with Griff on the number of things you can get wrong in one sentence. Congratulations, maybe.
You think he didn’t take state secrets he wasn’t entitled to take? I say you are wrong….

Yes Simon, Trump was making an atomic bomb in his basement in Mar Lago, we all know that. But frankly, you deserve troll credits for diverting the commentary away from the subject-
Is this the reincarnation of Grigg? You are too stupid to debate.

Yes, self-inflicted.
I believe Germany will capitulate by mid October and authorize the opening of NordStream2.
It is not a question of Germany capitulating. The question is even if they do, will Putin sell them any gas. That looks most unlikely. Biden could not have done a better job of screwing Germany and Europe with his idiotic sanctions if he worked for Putin.

Report Reveals Russia Is Behind Green Energy Propaganda – “Russian Dark Money Funded Green Groups in the West”

Report Reveals Russia Is Behind Green Energy Propaganda – “Russian Dark Money Funded Green Groups in the West”
Russia is behind much of the propaganda in the West that supports ‘green energy’ and banning fracking. This enables Russia’s dominance in the energy sector.
It is not difficult to see that certain countries would be happy to see the US and European countries step away from fracking and energy independence. Saudi Arabia, Russia, Venezuela and other oil producers are happy to see the US energy-dependent as they are now. This allows these countries to capitalize and provide the oil and gas necessary to keep the US and European economies going. The producers become rich and Americans and Europeans suffer…
_____
Putin is playing chess while Biden is playing Tiddly Winks. He could not be happier than to have had dumb Joe impose his idiotic sanctions. Joe played right into his hands. Europe is screwed thanks to Biden and this isn’t going to be so hot for the US, either, since Joe’s been so busy destroying US energy.
I swear, if Biden were working for Putin, what would he possibly have done any different than exactly what he has done?
And democrats are making noises about reneging on Manchin’s fossil fuel deal with the democrats for his ‘yea’ vote on the IRA absurdity.
As he deserves. WV will replace him but it will be too late for the damage he has done.
BTW, direct election of Senators in the US did not provide for a way to recall a Senator. A very bad constitutional amendment that must be repealed.
One thing Manchin could do to “even the score” is switch to the Republican Party and that would flip the Senate to a Republican majority. That’d be fun to watch even if it’s only till January.
He will never do that, he is bought and paid for. One of our oligarchs, Bill Gates “lobbied” hi to vote for the crap.
In the US, usually lobbied = bought off.
Agree. We have the best Government money can buy.
The bill has already been passed. How are they going to renege on it?
Let’s Go Brandon!
That picture needs a thousand up votes.
The question was him or Trump, who do you want? Impossible when there is no good answer.
The correct answer was Trump – obviously.
Guess you forgot this, huh, Simon?

The Germans aren’t laughing anymore.
Rud, I’m a little disappointed at your pile-on assertion about a ‘stolen election’, quite out of character.
Not that I agree with most of this administration’s policies, but come on, really?
If the Dems/dumbs are smart enough to ‘steal’ an election without leaving left a yuuuge trail of evidence, don’t you think they should ‘have a go’ (in a democracy kinda way)?
Democracy is fragile … you’re certainly not helping.
They did leave a huge trail of evidence.
Yes, there is lots of evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election.
All the news media, including Fox News ignore this evidence. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
Enough voter fraud went on in the battleground States to swing the election one way or the other. What we don’t know is for whom the fraudulent votes were cast. If the fraudulent votes were cast for Biden, then Trump actually won that election.
Trump supporters think most of the fraudulent votes were cast for Joe Biden. That’s what I think. We can’t prove it, but we can think it, and this will cause us to pay close attention to the next election.
Tom, numerous enquiries and recounts, even by Trump loyalists found nothing. Not a thing. His own daughter says there was no fraud.Bill Barr says there was no fraud. The guy in charge of the election said it was the most secure in history (or something like that). Most of the fraud that was found was by Trump voters(even then it was next to nothing… every year there is some).
Simon, simply not true. You give no references. I do, below. Your factual response?
Got references for it all. Which part do you want?
“most secure in history” is your clue that it was anything but. They used Covid as an excuse to paper the country with mail-in ballots which was unprecedented and unconstitutional. They broke elections laws in most of the states in the name of the Covid Crisis. Under those conditions, what kind of moron would ever believe the election was even remotely secure, let alone “most secure in history?” These people think we are all stupid!
“ These people think we are all stupid!” Given the behaviour of Trump apostles in the last 18 months, I don’t think they “think” it.
Oh, my. So witty.
Not sure what you mean by “apostle.” But it can’t be as bad as having Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Couldn’t agree more. Trump certainly is deranged.
Lose the thread?
He does often. Hell, he doesn’t even know which nuclear codes he stole.
To quote yourself .. “I too am suspicious at the reports of the nuclear thing”
Dude, even you can’t be that dumb. The nuclear codes are changed frequently. What would he do with them anyway? You’re just being absurd .. as usual.
The notion he had nuclear codes is a newspaper report, NYTs, I think it was, no doubt fed to them by the FBI. No name. No proof. Gossip, really. Just like all the other reports fed to the media by them which proved false. Good grief, will you never learn?
Not, this has a lot more substance to it.
Ah, you don’t care for Geezer’s facts, so are trying to change the subject, eh, Simon? Naughty boy!

jkp,
Agree 100% on the stolen election crapola.
If you want to believe that bs, go ahead and delude yourself because you want it to be true.
But for your credibility’s sake, keep it to yourself.
I believe that Biden is the worst president in history with the worst agenda in history by a wide margin.
However, Biden won fair and square by every authentic measure and those that are unable to see that because of wishful thinking or political bias, can’t be expected to consistently apply the principles of the scientific method.
The scientific method requires us to seriously question our own views, not believe them because we want it to be true.
Most of us WANT a different president than BIden. However, he got the most electoral votes fair and square based on all the authentic facts/empirical data and indisputable evidence.
Biden won fair and square by every authentic measure
Now that the Hunter laptop story is finally out, you know the laptop the FBI had for more than a year before the election, 8 in 10 people surveyed think if that had been widely known, the election would have gone to TRUMP!
Yep, there was no thumb on the scale.
And don’t bring up Comey and Hillbillary and the 2016 election. There was more than enough evidence of obstruction of justice with the deletion of 30,000 plus emails, but the DOJ brought all of her coconspirators in and gave them immunity from prosecution. That is why she was never charged during the TRUMP! term.
Yep, there is no bias in the DOJ or FBI, Republicans can get a fair trial in 95% Democrat DC, and the election was fair and square.
Add to that the “thumb” of Zuckerberg’s “Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL)”
“fair and square”
Pure speculation.
In addition to the existing evidence of vote harvesting, why are you ignoring the vote process changes made due to the Covid mandates?
Vote process changes coupled with vote harvesting led to the increased voter turnout. How many of them were actually valid using prior to Covid-required process changes?
Yes you are tell me Biden got 20 million votes more than Obama. That the 900 pound gorilla that is in the room.
jkp,
Governors made wholesale changes to voting without the approval of the state legislators in many states including Penn and WI. The US constitution, an agreement made among the states was violated, but when Texas and other states filed suit to stop those illegal changes, the corrupt federal courts dismissed the cases stating Texas didn’t have standing to sue, only the federal government could do so.
Add the fact that the collection of ballots and delivery by someone other than the voter greatly increased the democrat vote. The privacy of the voting booth has been eliminated by the ability of ballot ‘HARVESTORS” to take ballots to people’s houses and “help” them complete the voting process.
I hope you will think a coupe of minutes on these issues.
BTW, in Alaska, the next great scam, ranked choice voting, has allowed Murkowski to again make it on the final ballot, even though she would never have won a Republican primary. A truly conservative state that may well be again represented by a RINO.
Real conservatives in Alaska better get out and vote.
Trump will probably be giving Alaska a visit in the near future.
The trail doesn’t seem to want to go away.
See recent posts at The Air Vent – https://noconsensus.wordpress.com/
It is not an assertion. It is my conviction supported by 4 separate lines of evidence.
You forgot the 2 AM step function in votes for Obiden after shutting down counting and expelling Republican poll watchers in several states.
Excluded only because cannot easily prove was only a systemic reporting glitch. I can absolutely prove all else. Including Fulton County Georgia, and Detroit in MI, and Maricopa CountyAZ. Just chose the simplest two states as examples.
We are now down to semantics.
It is one thing to assert there was no proven FRAUD. We have secret ballots for a good reason but as a consequence, actual fraud is much more difficult to prove.
However. there is now no denying the “cabal”, as Mollie Ball termed it in her TIME article was a clear instance of a VERY heavy “thumb” on the scales of what should have been a free and fair election.
There were a lot of things put in place under the cloak of a “COVID Emergency” that may (and possibly were not) legal – but should have been illegal.
Add to that the PROBABLE but not provable evidence of irregularities; statistical impossibilities, the stoppage of vote counting simultaneously in the swing states and then the subsequent after midnight dump of ballots for a single candidate.
Then tell the republicans to stop with the insane abortion crap, they are going to create an emotional tidal wave.
Simply state that Kansas got it right, legal abortion up to 15 weeks and allow it to be available.
Or it’s going to be tight.
So you don’t think babies are worth protecting?
Another eugenics supporter? You want to make sure Planned Parenthood can keep k!lling a disproportionate number of black babies?
Nice
What Kansas approved was keeping a State Supreme Court opinion in place stating that there is a constitutional right to abortion in the state. Efforts to limit that have been declared unconstitutional and any limits still on the books will be struck down soon. I don’t know if we got it right or wrong, but we have become the regional haven for late-term abortions for any reason.
It’s tempting to let the ‘no fossil fuel’ states suffer the results of their policies, as long as the policy-makers suffer along with everyone else. Which I doubt would happen.
How long would it take to get back to the pre-Biden situation as regards fossil fuel independence?
That is a good question. Probably longer than one might think, given the ease with which Biden reversed Trump energy independence. Old saying, once burned, twice shy.
KXL is never coming back. Enbridge is left with a $15 billion lawsuit against Biden for arbitrary cancellation and a lot of now useless rusting steel pipe.
The US has not been energy independent since the 1940s. That is a myth. We import energy products, so do rely on other nations. Being a net exporter of oil is not independence. No imports is independence.
If you are exporting more than you are importing, then you are energy independent. And we were.
What RG is missing is the fact that the Democrats have been so successful in stopping the construction of new refineries, that we may import finished products while exporting other products due to that bottleneck.
Crude oil imports of about 6.11 million b/d accounted for about 72% of U.S. total gross petroleum imports in 2021, and non-crude oil petroleum accounted for about 28% of U.S. total gross petroleum imports.
They are two different measures
If there is a supplier that can disrupt your economy by reducing or ending their exports, then your nation is not independent. Canada and Mexico may be friendly, I assume, but they do supply oil that our refineries are using. Please look up the definition of “independent”
That is a terrifying question. It takes energy to produce energy. The developed world’s economy is structured heavily on inexpensive, reliable energy. By damaging just a small part of the system’s ability to produce creates massive disruptions. Disruptions creates scarcity, scarcity begets rationing – a profoundly political process that rewards the Party and punishes all others starting with ideological enemies and burning a path of destruction through the poor and other forms of collateral damage.
People then stop paying their bills and dropping out of any form of valuable productivity, yet demand for goods and services, now politically rationed and even that form of rationing accelerating as reduced productivity creates even more scarcity into critical foundational systems.
Soon the engine stop. I fear that once the engine stops it can’t be restarted because who is going to sacrifice themselves in the form of money and effort to essentially enrich and reward a feckless, corrupt system that views life as expendable and worthless?
