Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson released the first episode of his new show on Twitter on June 6, delving into the mysterious destruction of a dam in Ukraine.
“As of today, we have come to Twitter, which we hope will be the short wave radio under the blankets,” Carlson stated toward the end of the video. “We’re told there are no gatekeepers here. If that turns out to be false, we’ll leave. But in the meantime, we’re grateful to be here.”
Carlson signed off the show, dubbed “Tucker on Twitter,” saying that he will be back on the platform with “much more, very soon.”
The former Fox News host, who exited the network more than a month ago under unclear circumstances, spoke of the damage to the Kakhovka dam in Ukraine this week.
“The Kakhovka dam was effectively Russian,” Carlson said. “It was built by the Russian government. It currently sits in Russian-controlled territory. The dam’s reservoir supplies water to Crimea, which has been for the last 240 years home of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.
“Blowing up the dam may be bad for Ukraine, but it hurts Russia more, and for precisely that reason, the Ukrainian government has considered destroying it.
“So really, once the facts start coming in, it becomes much less of a mystery what might have happened to the dam, and a fair person would conclude that the Ukrainians probably blew it up, just as you would assume they blew up Nord Stream, the Russian natural gas pipeline last fall. And, in fact, the Ukrainians did do that, as we now know.”
Later, he commented on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who has been almost universally feted by Western governments and praised in the corporate press. “Ukraine, as you may have heard, is led by a man called Zelenskyy. We can say for a dead certain fact that he was not involved. He couldn’t have been; Zelenskyy is too decent for terrorism,” he said.
