Tucker: Hunter Biden Conspiracy Proof Lost in the Mail

Fox News propagandist Tucker Carlson supposedly had an October surprise report on Hunter Biden’s overseas business dealings and he was ready to spill the beans on his show. Unfortunately, the supposed smoking gun for the story got lost in the mail on its way to Fox News, according to Carlson. On his show last night, Tucker explained that the Hunter Biden documents were sent through a popular mail carrier. At some point during the shipment, the contents of the package containing the documents were removed and they can’t be found anywhere. No one had backups or pictures of the content so they appear to be lost forever.

This is humiliating news for Tucker Carlson but it’s just an added layer of absurdity on top of this entire Hunter Biden story. This is one of those scenarios where evidence against the conspiracy theory can be warped to serve as evidence for the conspiracy theory. The Fox News viewer will see this and think a Biden operative is working on the inside to prevent a smoking gun from getting out. If the Trump team was counting on these findings to be the October surprise that would propel them to victory, then they must be disappointed, With 80 million votes already cast, the time to release a story that could change the course of the election is running out.

Humiliating Trump Rally Goes Horribly Wrong

The Trump corona-rallies continue with only five days to go before the 2020 election. The President made stops yesterday in Arizona, which is a new battleground state this cycle and Joe Biden is currently leading there by an RCP average of 1.3%. Trump brought House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy with him to the rally, who promised the crowd that he wouldn’t bang Nancy Pelosi with the gavel if Republicans take back the House. Then Trump spoke and bragged about how he doesn’t need to use a teleprompter, even though he uses them all the time and fails to make any sense when he’s off of them. Trump also complained about the weather, which has become a fixture at these rallies. This time it was too windy for him.

Donald Trump emphasized the campaign message that coronavirus has been defeated in the United States, despite the speech happening on the same day the US again set a record for new coronavirus cases. Trump ridiculed mask-wearing, talking about how in California people have to eat through the mask, which is of course not true. Later in the speech, the microphone started giving Trump problems. He blamed the workers who set up the venue for the tech issue, saying maybe they shouldn’t be paid because they did such a poor job. It’s Trump who deserves to lose his job and we need to make that happen on November 3rd.

From yesterday’s show:

Yep, It's Time to Expand the Supreme Court

Senate Republicans this week pulled off a robbery of a Supreme Court seat with the confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett. Conservatives now have a six-to-three majority on the court despite losing the popular vote in six of the last seven presidential elections. Assuming Joe Biden wins the presidency and Democrats take back the Senate, it will be time to add seats to the Supreme Court. Adding seats is perfectly within the framework of the Constitution and it’s been done a number of times in US history, including by Presidents Adams, Jefferson, and Jackson. If Joe Biden chooses to add seats to the court, the public will be behind the decision as it’s the only way he’ll be able to have an effective administration.
