Tucker Carlson Says Congressmen ‘Terrified' Intel Agencies Will Frame Them With ‘Kiddie Porn'
2024-04-22
[Daily Caller] Tucker Carlson said congressmen are "terrified" that intelligence agencies will frame them with "kiddie porn" if they openly oppose "warrantless spying" on an episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience" released Friday.

Carlson told podcast host Joe Rogan that U.S. lawmakers "told" him that they are "worried" about being punished by intelligence agencies if they oppose reauthorizing Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).

"People don’t say that because they’re worried about being punished. They’re worried about someone putting kiddie porn on their computer. Members of Congress are terrified of the intel agencies. I’m not guessing at that. They’ve told me that — including people on the intel committee, including people who run the intel committee," Carlson said.

"The people whose job it is to oversee and keep in line these enormous, secretive agencies whose budgets we can’t even know — their ’black budgets,’" Carlson continued, raising his hands into air-quotes. "They’re the parents, the agencies are the children. They’re afraid of the agencies. That’s not compatible with democracy."

#7  I'm always reminded that when people talk about the Herculean Task of Flushing the Augean Stables, no one mentions how much horse-crap will need to be cleaned up!

#6  What's the cyber equivalent of a throw-down bag of weed?

A binary attachment to an otherwise innocent-looking email message.

#5  Perhaps the lingering question of.... "who's in charge" in Washington has finally been answered ?

"Lingering question" for some possibly.

#3  This is the second or third report of IC blackmailing Congress this year. One report was directly from an active congressman.

#2  Best comment from today's "Thinker" entitled "King Deep State Sits on a Stolen Throne." Lydia fok'n nails it hands down.

The Deep State King is a many-headed Hydra, with tentacles everywhere. Like the Greek myth, when one head is cut off, two more sprout in its place. It became one of Hercules' 12 Labors to sever the Hydra's heads as his nephew cauterized the wounds so that no fresh heads would emerge. That is the labor that must be taken on to free the people of this country.

Yesterday, O'Keefe Media Group announced they will be publishing undercover video of Intel officials. This was announced after the Tucker Carlson interview with Joe Rogan where Tucker noted the fear Congress has of the IC and their ability to plant porn on their computers for blackmail purposes. O'Keefe posted, "Do not run for office unless you're willing to lay down your life for your country. Do not run if fear is in your vocabulary."

Ridding the country of the Hydra will be a Herculean effort. Many in Congress are legitimately compromised, but it really doesn't matter. As we have seen, "crimes" can be manufactured. If Congress had any honor or integrity they would stand together as one body to call out the Deep State IC and condemn the tyranny. Let the chips fall where they may. But it won't happen because they are all cowards and charlatans who are rewarded for compliance. Watching some of the rats flee the sinking ship may indicate that exposure is imminent. They also know that the Hydra is immortal and will take vengeance against anyone that tries to slay it.

The American people must have the backs of those trying to expose and slay the beast, but like our "representatives," we have become weak, docile, and cowardly. We seal our own fate if we let the beast devour our champions.

#1  Perhaps the "fear" is justified.
