Tucker Carlson reads Ted Cruz for filth

Not surprising. Tucker is a Russian asset and Putin is not happy.

It was never a question of if they would turn on each other, only when.

However, I am surprised it's already happening. I assumed the honeymoon period would last at least a year before the major cracks showed.

Tucker Carlson is a Russian cutout.

Ted Cruz is an empty suit.

Both are douchebags.

Carlson is right for calling him out.

All these things can be correct simultaneously.

I can't yet wrap my head around all the right wing fissuring over Iran.

It's so weird to see them not act like an evil monolith.

Only because of Russia tho

Even though Carlson is a Russian patsy, he is correct in pointing out something most people don’t think of.

If Iran’s Revolutionary government were to topple, they would not have a Velvet Revolution. They would have a civil war. The collapse of the Iranian regime would be the most significant geopolitical event since the fall of the Soviet Union.

Per ChatGPT:

An Iranian civil war would be one of the most destabilizing geopolitical events in the world—not just for the Middle East, but globally. Here’s how it could affect the region:

⸻

1. Collapse of a Regional Power

Iran is not just a country—it’s a cornerstone of regional power politics:

• Military reach: Iran backs powerful proxy forces in Lebanon (Hezbollah), Iraq (Shiite militias), Syria (Assad regime), Yemen (Houthis), and Gaza (Hamas/PIJ ties).

• Strategic geography: It sits on the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of global oil supply flows.

If Iran fractures, it could either:

• Severely weaken these groups (if funding and leadership dissolve), or

• Radicalize them further, as factions vie for power, funding, and ideology.

⸻

2. Proxy War Explosion

Like Syria, a civil war in Iran would invite regional and global powers to intervene:

• Saudi Arabia & Gulf States might back Sunni or secular opposition forces.

• Israel might exploit the chaos to weaken Hezbollah and eliminate nuclear capabilities.

• Turkey could involve itself to secure borders or Kurdish regions.

• Russia and China may support the Iranian state or a preferred faction to maintain influence.

• U.S. would be pressured to intervene (directly or indirectly), especially if oil markets spiral.

⸻

3. Ethnic Fragmentation and Secession Movements

Iran is multiethnic:

• Kurds in the northwest (linked to Kurdish populations in Iraq, Turkey, Syria).

• Baluchis in the southeast (with ties to Pakistan).

• Azeris, Arabs, and Turkmens across various provinces.

Civil war could spur:

• Separatist uprisings.

• Cross-border ethnic unrest, especially in Turkey and Pakistan.

• Potential new microstates or autonomous zones, which could be unstable or extremist-run.

⸻

4. Economic Shock and Energy Crisis

• Oil prices could skyrocket amid fears of disruption in Iranian exports or closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

• Global energy markets, already volatile, would feel immediate shockwaves—fueling inflation worldwide.

⸻

5. Nuclear Weapons Risk

• If Iran is close to building a nuclear bomb (as many believe), civil war raises:

• Risk of weapons or materials falling into extremist hands.

• Preemptive strikes by Israel or the U.S. to prevent nuclear proliferation.

⸻

6. Refugee Crisis

Millions could flee:

• To Turkey, Iraq, Armenia, Pakistan, creating an enormous humanitarian burden.

• Potential for extremist elements to travel with refugee flows, as seen in Syria.

⸻

7. End of the “Axis of Resistance”

The so-called “axis” linking Iran–Syria–Hezbollah–Hamas could fracture:

• This could benefit Israel strategically.

• Or result in localized wars as groups fight over power vacuums (e.g., in Lebanon or Iraq).

⸻

8. Impact on Internal Stability of Neighbors

• Iraq’s Shiite population could be drawn into Iran’s internal conflict.

• Pakistan, already unstable, could see violence spill over from Baluchistan.

• Afghanistan might become a conduit or sanctuary for fighters and arms.

• Gulf states might fear uprisings among Shiite populations in Bahrain and eastern Saudi Arabia.

⸻

Summary:

An Iranian civil war would:

• Shatter existing power structures across the region.

• Inflame sectarian conflict (Sunni vs. Shia).

• Disrupt energy supplies and global markets.

• Invite foreign intervention and escalate into a multi-nation conflict.

In short, it would be a Syria-level disaster magnified tenfold, with far broader geopolitical implications.

Girls, girls, you’re both pretty!

Uhhhhh….

That was actually hilarious. Ted Cruz was squirming.

"How could you not know that?"

Withering.

Uh-huh, aaany day now.

And fuck the Krassenstein grifters, they were MAGA-adjacent years leading up to the election. They turn into "The Resistance" to whomever is in the White House at the time, pure engagement whores.

Has Miss Jenner weighed in on this yet?

I'm the Mary you're the Rhoda!

Eldergay republicans— is this high performance art? Those of you are real and not MAGAs. It is ALWAYS suspect when you are on the intellectually sympathetic side to Tucker Carlson.

Ted will need another trip to Cancun to lick his wounds.

Today they’re at loggerheads about Iran but tomorrow they’ll be licking each others shitters again, applauding as the Supreme Court takes up a case to overturn gay marriage.

I did not expect to find myself liking Tucker Carlson. He really DID eviscerate Cancun Ted on this one. I don't follow Tucker. I suspect I'd still find 99% of what he says disgusting, but I guess we both loathe neocons and their thirst for war.

Tucker Carlson is pulling a Bill Maher.

I love that Cruz's hail mary was invoking the name "Donald Trump." It is the MAGA cult's safeword.

They're both disgusting and need to join Rush Limbaugh in hell.

It's funny how Rush disappeared from everything after he died. Nobody is mourning him or posting his quotes as memes. He's just gone. Ted Cruz's Cancun trip robbed us of a lot of good memes

The first thing that struck me about the clip is how fat they're both getting. Especially in their faces.

[Quote]The Republican Party is self-destructing

Indeed! Their budget "negotiations" will be pure hell. HA! HA!

Idiots, this is called dissent, which is allowed in a healthy society.

The radical woke left does not allow difference of opinion and those who disagree are ostracized/canceled.

Like on DL, for example.

R21 a lot of that neck bloat is from heavy beer drinking.

Quick, someone tell Chat GPT that Assad is living in Moscow now.

lying ted

It’s too bad Tucker can’t have a come to Jesus moment and stop being a prick. He can be really funny sometimes
