Fox is trying to divide Dems by pushing the "rigged" storyline with Tulsi Gabbard

It’s Tucker Carlson, but he wouldn’t be on Fox if the Murdochs didnt want him there.

So, take this as:

“Lachlan and Rupert Murdoch are trying to divide Dems by pushing that storyline with Tulsi Gabbard”






I’m not saying much about Gabbard one way or the other here (though she should disavow this and disavow Tucker Carlson). Not in every case should we think Fox’s words are strategy designed to hurt Democrats and working people. But here they are.

A key thing Democrats should be doing today is unifying.

It’s important to know your enemies. See how Fox tries to damage us: by spreading this narrative. Fight against it - don’t talk about this narrative.

attempts to use her against Democrats and correct whatever behaviors they find useful, as should any others being used. We all have a nation to save, and they have a special duty.

like we did in 2016. Hillary won because black people voted for her instead of Bernie. Bernie didn't like that so we heard tales of a fixed race. Now it is happening again. We shouldn't be surprised.
