When I started watching Tucker Carlson, one of the things that made him enjoyable was that he always kept a little bit of an ironic distance from what he was covering. In recent months, though, that has changed. Tucker’s angry and righteously so. Monday night’s monologue may have been his most fiery yet because he focused on something we’ve all seen from the moment Biden swore an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”: As all totalitarian regimes do, Biden is using the instruments of government to persecute his political opponents.
We saw it when Biden and his armed bureaucrats characterized a large protest and an accompanying small riot at the United States Capitol (especially compared to past Democrat and BLM riots) as an “insurrection.”
We saw it when they imprisoned those people who had entered the Capitol (many under the impression that they were allowed to be there) and proceeded to hold them without bail, charges, or trial. When Democrats engaged in violent protests across America from January 2016 forward, Biden and his cohorts characterized those protests as “mostly peaceful” and righteous First Amendment actions aimed at challenging a fake president. Remember “The Resistance”?

Before 2020, of course, when Democrats did it, it was patriots exercising their First Amendment rights. According to constitutionalists, using the police state to intimidate and harass one’s political opposition is the real semi-fascist, anti-democracy thing to do.
