Fox’s Tucker Carlson: Democrats Using Pelosi Attack to Argue for Censorship


Fox News host Tucker Carlson, on Monday, made a very interesting observation about where the progressive Democratic movement may do next. He drew attention to their aggressive whining over the Twitter takeover by Elon Musk. Now, Musk is no conservative beacon, but he is committed to freedom of the press, especially as it relates to social media. And he has made it clear that he will run content on that platform that runs counter to the narrative the Democrats would like displayed. 

But why the histrionics from Democrats about “the end of democracy in America” with Twitter becoming one of their examples? There’s got to be something more causing terror within the Left’s ranks.

You can also see their fear over CNN’s ongoing overhaul by their new captain Chris Licht. Are the Democrats thinking that they are losing control of the media and social media?

Some are saying that Democrats are “terrified of the truth,” so they will try to suppress it before it reveals who and what they are. 

Tucker Carlson suggested that Democrats and the liberal media are exploiting the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi because they want to call for censorship across all media and social media outlets. It will be their last-ditch effort to control the narrative.

Carlson said that without censorship, Democrats will have to fight to keep their control and their power. 

Carlson said on his show: “We’ve been watching this story all weekend with growing bewilderment. Last Friday morning, as you know, around 2:00 AM, police arrived at the home of the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. It’s in the Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. Inside the home, they found Pelosi’s 82- year-old husband, Paul, and another man, 40 years younger, called David DePape. Nancy Pelosi was out of town at the time.”

He went on to describe how in full view of the police, DePape hit Pelosi in the head two times with a hammer. Both men were taken by the police to the hospital, Pelosi for his head injuries, but it is unknown why DePape was taken there. 

DePape has since been charged with assault, attempted kidnapping, and just recently, attempted murder. 

DePape admitted in police custody that he assaulted Pelosi with a hammer, but the motivation is still unclear. 

Carlson described the depth of unclarity around this case. He talked about the questions being raised about why Pelosi’s home was not protected by their security that night like usual. He also wondered with his viewers why the mainstream media is not pursuing more of the incongruence in this case and why they so quickly are rushing to easy conclusions without facts to back up their politically charged declarations. 

Tucker Carlson played audio clips that illustrate his point. A CNN anchor asked John Miller, the CNN chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst if this was political violence. He said that it was clear because of the content of his DePape’s social media and statements that he made about Nancy pointed in that direction.

MSNBC’s Mike Brzezinski said, “Deranged right-wing fanatics, Trump Media allies and some of the most powerful people in the world were feverishly trying to stir up conspiracy theories that distracted from the central political headline of this story that years of Republican propaganda and Trump-fueled fascism led 42-year-old David DePape to break into Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco home.”

But if you look at DePape’s social media, it is clear that he is not a MAGA Republican. Instead, what drove DePape to violence was drug-induced paranoid psychosis.

Carlson went on to share more facts about the incident and then actual statements made by the left trying the whole story to MAGA Republicans driven by right-wing conspiracies. 

He uses this case to expose their attempt to hide the real truth and portray their storyline. If they can no longer do this, Carlson said the Democratic Party will “cease to exist.”
