Russian state TV is using clips of Fox News host Tucker Carlson to promote the country's war against Ukraine amid protests against Vladimir Putin's partial mobilization.

Clips of Carlson chastising the U.S. over its continued backing of Kyiv were broadcast to millions of Russians this week as the Russian president ramped up the country's war effort, according to Russian Media Monitor creator Julia Davis.

Protests against the mobilization in Russia continued on Saturday with at least 745 people detained, according to OVD-Info, a human rights watchdog that monitors police activity.

1. tucker is a Russian dupe, as they used to say.

[speak easy]

3. Tucker is a nihilist enemy of democracy

... birds of a feather

[calimary]

12. Sure looks like it.

[Grokenstein]

13. The useful idiot.

In political jargon, a useful idiot is a term for a person perceived as propagandizing for a cause without fully comprehending the cause's goals, and who is cynically used by the cause's leaders. The term was originally used during the Cold War to describe non-communists regarded as susceptible to communist propaganda and manipulation. -- Wikipedia

One might argue that tucklefuck does, in fact, fully comprehend the goals of "the cause," but that just reclassifies him as "traitor."

[Grins]

18. He's not a dupe.

As vile as he is, he's not that stupid.

Simply paying attention to the news in Ukraine and Russia, even Fox News, should inform you what's going on.

That Tucker ignores ALL that, brings on guests to enforce that ignorance with PROVABLE lies, makes Tucker a traitor.

Too harsh? Tell me your term.

[Evolve Dammit]

23. At least a seditionist. Perhaps a co-conspirator. Let's see the $ trail, but sure looks like treason

[cstanleytech]

20. Dupe? No, I suspect he actually knows. Why does he continue?

Well, there are a number of possibilities including but not limited to him being paid by Russia.

[truthisfreedom]

2. Effin' traitor to his nation.

Lock him up.

[IronLionZion]

4. Traitor Carlson

Tuckyo Rose supports America's enemies

[Ray Bruns]

5. I know that would make me run to the recruiting office. Seeing someone who is not even from your

country and never served a day in uniform telling me to lay down my life for this useless war.

[keithbvadu2]

8. Tucker recommends enlisting.

Tucker recommends enlisting.

[rpannier]

6. Tuckyo Rose Carlson still carrying Russian water

Lord Haw Haw would be proud

[KS Toronado]

11. Best play I've seen on his name! "Tuckyo Rose Carlson"

[ThoughtCriminal]

7. A country that manufactures propaganda on an industrial scale

Still finds it hard to match Fox News pundits for over-the-top audacity.

[DBoon]

9. Tucker, our very own Lord Haw Haw

The WWII version was hanged for treason after the war by the British.

15. Thanks for the History Lesson

I copied the pertinent info from his Wikipedia page. Carlson is the leader of the propaganda assault on America from Russia.

The problem with Americans is that aren’t very politically useful, but some sure are idiots.

The worst are as dangerous as an abandoned land mine—they explode indiscriminately and are designed to cripple anyone in the vicinity.

10. Tucker Must Really Feel Proud Of Russia Using Him Like That....nt

[mwb970]

14. Another damn MAGA traitor.

[SouthernDem4ever]

16. Tucker is certainly a traitor to the US and democracy abroad

Now he has blood on his hands even if it is because of his fat ugly mouth.

[The Wizard]

17. Tucker is just another

Republican for Putin. He just has a bigger microphone than the others.

[ck4829]

19. Life must suck for the non-Moscow Russian: Drafted for some stupid war AND Tucker is on your TV

Russia is a state sponsor of terror

[Marcuse]

21. Russian People: Tucker defiantly insults his President on TV and lives???? What a country!

[FailureToCommunicate]

22. Tucker the Traitor, Russia's & Putin's stooge, should stay away from high windows...

Oh, wait. We don't do that to "traitors" in this country.

How does he live with himself?
How does his family stand him?
How do his neighbors put up with this traitor?

[prodigitalson]

24. while I strongly support Ukraine's fight for freedom. I also feel sorry for the Russians

who have to listen to that shithead.
