Duckworth, a decorated combat veteran who lost both her legs in Iraq when the helicopter she was piloting was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade in 2004.

Youre not supposed to criticize Tammy Duckworth in any way because she once served in the military, Carlson said

I never understood this "elected official actually hates America" rhetoric, especially applying it across a broad number of people. Why would someone devote their life and career working for something they hate? It's not like public service is the most lucrative career

the republican game plan is to scare the hell out of their voters, and claiming that the other side only got elected because they hate the country (and specifically republican voters) so much that they want to see it all burn does that.

No idea who she is, but it's true that some people seem to think they're immune from criticism due to having served. Though Tucker seems to have had more and more shit takes as of recent, so he probably on the wrong side of things.

Duckworth's family has served in the military since the revolutionary war. She was a helicopter pilot who lost her legs in Iraq. She was the director of the Illinois Department of Veteran Affairs. She was the Assistant Secretary in the US Dept. of Veterans Affairs. Congresswoman. Senator.

Meanwhile Cucker Carlson tried to join the CIA but his application was denied, then he went into journalism and became the frat bro clueless right wing pundit.

Doesn't matter. She doesn't worship Trump, thus she hates America.

He's right that having served does not make you immune to criticism. He's just wrong about everything else.

Which you could glean from context, but tried to be disingenuous about. That was transparent, so you got told to shut the fuck up.

You can say someone who sacrificed both legs in a war for the United States hates the very country she made that sacrifice for simply because she doesnt subscribe to your political ideology?

Typical right wing mentality. Shut the fuck up.

p.s. John McCain was a fucking hero, too.

Just read about this, it's really disgusting to see shit like this. It's extremely disturbing to see just how commonplace it's become for people of one political viewpoint to criticize and harass people of other political viewpoints and try to claim that they're anti-American.

You can critize the military. When they do something worth critizing.

Also this is about pointing out hyprocracy.

tucker knows exactly what he's doing

https://www.sltrib.com/artsliving/2020/06/21/scott-d-pierce-fox/

The Fox News legal team is defending against a slander lawsuit by claiming that (a) what Carlson says isnt news; (b) he doesnt necessarily do any research; and (c) what he says isnt necessarily true.
Would a reasonable viewer be coming here [to Tucker Carlson Tonight] and thinking, This is where Im going to be hearing the news of the day? Fox News attorney Erin Murphy asked in a hearing-via-telephone on Wednesday

Fox News contends that it doesnt matter if Carlson accused her of a crime and got his facts wrong because Tucker Carlson Tonight isnt about facts. When the judge asked Foxs attorneys, Does somebody in Mr. Carlsons position have a duty of inquiry? the answer was no.

carlson has admitted as much himself:

They aren't working for the country, they are working for themselves. It's all about power, and influence.

If you play the game right, it's very lucrative.

I don't like him doing this, but so? You can shit on someone for hypothetically having bad views. So what if they suffered? That doesn't necessarily mean their view is good. However, he is kind of a dick for doing this and I don't agree with him.
