Omg anybody who doubted Tucker’s story because Tucker is a sensationalist talking head and because he hadn’t been backed publicly by Fox must be SO embarrassed right now. I feel so sorry for them. Sorry, guys.

Retractions, anyone?

I will absolutely retract if and when the NSA is found to have done something inappropriate. Per the link they denied.

IIRC, you were quite vocal about Carlson's employer, Fox News, being silent on the issue.

Seems that, today, they're not.

"misleading denial"
"egregious"
"serious questions"
"entirely unacceptable"

I was indeed. So I suppose Fox met criteria and I will partially retract. If it is found that the NSA is lying about their denial, then I will be equally vocal.

I think I am on record of being supportive of Tucker in many cases. When he made a huge claim and Fox wouldn’t back him up I thought he had jumped the shark, and not for the first time.

Carlson also said that the goal of the unmasking was to have him lose his job.

I've not seen any evidence of that.

I have always believed everything Tucker says

And that may be wrong. Probably is wrong.

But what is very interesting us whether it was a mistake made with a routine intercept or something more nefarious?
