So naturally, Fox News and the pro-Putin wing of the Republican Party were all in favor of the intelligence hack and immediately set out to defend the traitor who leaked the documents. Even Donald Trump weighed in with his inane theory that President Biden was the leaker&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=56702\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Floats the Stupidest Lie About Biden and Intel Documents: \u2018Maybe He Was the Leaker\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Leading the parade of anti-Americans cheering on the illegal breach of national security, was Fox News Senior Putin Propagandist, Tucker Carlson. On his Thursday night episode, Carlson &#8211; who has explicitly declared that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=52171\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">he&#8217;s rooting for Russia in its criminal war against Ukraine<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; embarked on a wholly fictitious account of what was in the leaked documents. And, of course, his fabricated version made the U.S. out to be the villains&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Briefing slides had begun to show up, among other places, on Twitter. And the slides show that this is not Ukraine&#8217;s war. It&#8217;s our war. The United States is a direct combatant in a war against Russia. As we speak, American soldiers are fighting Russian soldiers. So this is not a regional conflict in Eastern Europe. [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The second thing we learned from these slides is that despite direct U.S. involvement, Ukraine is, in fact, losing the war. Seven Ukrainians are being killed for every Russian. Ukrainian air defenses have been utterly degraded. Ukraine is losing. The Biden administration is perfectly aware of this. They&#8217;re panicked about it. But they have lied about this fact to the public.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fox&#39;s own correspondent reported that the US Special Forces stationed in Ukraine are part of an embassy attache, not combat troops. But Tucker Carlson is on air claiming their presence is an act of war.  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TNzJSDxNgV\">https:\/\/t.co\/TNzJSDxNgV<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/OZtJDDr14m\">pic.twitter.com\/OZtJDDr14m<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; nikki mccann ram\u00edrez (@NikkiMcR) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NikkiMcR\/status\/1646667535318646784?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 14, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>First of all, There are exactly zero American soldiers fighting in Ukraine. Carlson is likely cooking up this lie from reports that there are some military personnel stationed at the U.S. embassy, a customary assignment for all foreign ministries. They are not combatants. But Carlson&#8217;s lie could give Putin an excuse to target Americans and American assets in Ukraine and around the world. And notice that his own colleague, Fox News White House correspondent, Jacqui Heinrich, debunked him, reporting that <em>&#8220;there is a small military presence at the Embassy.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Secondly, Carlson&#8217;s assertion that Ukraine is losing the war is completely made up. His numbers were pulled straight out of his asinine prejudices against Ukraine and America. Every military analyst &#8211; with the exception of those beholden to Putin &#8211; agree that Russia has been getting beaten by almost every measure. The only thing that Russia has succeeded in is slaughtering civilians and committing war crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Carlson went on to call for the arrest of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, who he baselessly accused of lying to the Senate. He also introduced his own conspiracy theory that the Washington Post and the New York Times colluded with the Biden administration, using <em>&#8220;illegal surveillance techniques to identify&#8221;<\/em> the leaker. Actually, it was <em>&#8220;billing records of an Internet social media platform and interviews with another user&#8221;<\/em> that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour\/nation\/billing-records-from-discord-server-helped-fbi-identify-suspect-in-military-docs-leak\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">helped the FBI identify the suspect<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, at his arraignment <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/jack-douglass-teixeira-charged-leaks-investigation\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Teixeira was charged<\/a><\/strong> with <em>&#8220;unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents.&#8221;<\/em> Which is essentially <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=56604\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the same crime that Trump committed when he stole documents from the White House<\/a><\/strong> and hoarded them at Mar-a-Lago.<\/p>\n<p>All of Carlson&#8217;s raving in this extended and tedious harangue was in defense of Russia and the suspect now in custody who stole classified information and published it online. But worse, it is pure unadulterated propaganda on behalf of Carlson&#8217;s masters in the Kremlin. It is emblematic of the anti-American stance taken by Carlson, Fox News, and the GOP. It is aiding and abetting America&#8217;s enemies. And it borders on treason.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=56537\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Should ICC\u2019s War Crimes Arrest Warrant for Putin Include His American PR Flack, Tucker Carlson?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/newscorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/newsie.social\/@NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mastodon<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week it was discovered that highly sensitive, classified, United States military documents had been illegally published online.
