The highest-rated host on the highest-rated cable news channel in the country again attempted to smear a double amputee US Army veteran as an anti-American fanatic on Tuesday. In a reprehensible monologue, Tucker Carlson claimed from his Fox News perch that Democratic Sen. Tammy Duckworth actually"despise[s]" America. Carlson shamelessly called Duckworth a"coward," a"fraud," and a"callous hack," among other things.
oliverdarcy lol 😂 your just jealous of Tucker’s ratings lol u
oliverdarcy She’s a liar, legs or not. CNN is FAKE NEWS! CNNFakeNews
oliverdarcy Disgusting
oliverdarcy Some of the comments defending TuckerCarlson have as many likes as the original article. Comments attacking TuckerCarlson likes can be counted on one hand🤔
oliverdarcy No one is above criticism
oliverdarcy CNNs attempt to smear Benedict Arnold who was wounded in action crosses the line.
oliverdarcy By Oliver Darcy. Hahahahaha!
oliverdarcy This guy is a jerk!
oliverdarcy So, she can never be criticized? She gets a free “ I lost my legs in the service of my country” pass for the rest of her life?
oliverdarcy Tell the truth
oliverdarcy Trump puppet
oliverdarcy This is the most ClickbaitOpera that I’ve seen out of CNN in a long time oliverdarcy, but it’s what I’ve come to expect. If you can’t argue on the merits, be as subjective as possible. Y’all are getting worse. Your sponsors, and the lack there of, should get a discount.
oliverdarcy How low can TuckerCarlson go? So much hate!
oliverdarcy Smear? He was asking her for a policy stance as a constituent. Disagreeing with her politics or her lack of a candid answer isnt “smearing.” Fake “journalism”. Stop calling yourself media and call yourself a political platform. That’s all you are.
oliverdarcy Did he make fun of her disability or just call her an imbecile? No one is above reproach especially an elected official and btw she is an imbecile.
oliverdarcy Duckworth was asked to come on and defend her imbecilic position? She bailed like ALL Democrats do
oliverdarcy No, it does not. Anyone who works for our country, is paid by our country, and trashes our country, deserves to be hit and hit hard.
oliverdarcy He should be in jail.
oliverdarcy She chose public life in politics. She is not immune to any criticism. I’m sure your contributors have never been critical of Dan Crenshaw have they?
oliverdarcy 'Analysis'
oliverdarcy AND I am sure that’s exactly what happened... CNN is FakeNews
oliverdarcy Smear? Really Truth hurts sometimes.
Jali_Cat oliverdarcy How dare anyone question a Democrat. They are sensitive and should be handled accordingly FYI. Duckworth is useless
oliverdarcy He’s a sick puppy.
oliverdarcy ; ( twucker cwason is meen
oliverdarcy CNN: CHINESE NEWS NETWORK!
oliverdarcy He should be fired. Whose running that place. And that bitch Ingram can go too
oliverdarcy He outed her.
oliverdarcy Ppl are sick of hearing about how bad the Founding Father’s were. George Washington fought for our country in 2 wars. He pledged his Life, His Fortune & His Sacred Honor. He deserves Respect! if America is so racist Why wld Duckworth want to be V.P.? MAGA
oliverdarcy Ummmm no it doesn't - we hear her words, see her actions. It is clear that she in not a friend of our country. DemocratsHateAmerica CorruptMedia would acknowledge this if you weren't in bed with the CorruptDNC
oliverdarcy FakeNews
oliverdarcy Tucker like trump is a sniveling coward who can’t stand to be around hero’s because they know they don’t measure up
oliverdarcy StandUpAmerica NoMasks NoMask standwithtuckercarlson Tucker was very right. Sen. Duckworth is wrong on all levels. She needs to apologize for being so DUMB.
oliverdarcy WWG1WGA
oliverdarcy Just because you have handicaps doesn’t mean your going to be a saint the rest of your life.
oliverdarcy Tucker Carlson is the best reporter by far today. CNN should have thinking reporters who research before slapping their jaws.
Jali_Cat oliverdarcy Hey
Jali_Cat oliverdarcy I support Tucker
oliverdarcy Legs have nothing to do with what came out of her mouth.
oliverdarcy Dont fuck with the Tuck
oliverdarcy 😆'Crosses the line.'🤣 Guess Cucker had a leg up on the competition.
oliverdarcy I would love to let my dog piss in his water
oliverdarcy Tucker Carlson is justified in criticizing Tammy Duckworth. her history does not eliminate her from being criticized.
oliverdarcy So, she’s immune to criticism?
oliverdarcy Thank you to Senator for her service to our beloved Country. Tucker is correct. Not every hero is always correct.
oliverdarcy To be fair, Tucker endured countless atomic wedgies in high school
oliverdarcy It’s what’s in her brain that counts. Not what’s below her waist.
oliverdarcy Lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lieslies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies such liars.
oliverdarcy He didn’t make fun of her because she has no legs, he criticized her stupid comments. Any senator with or without legs or a military service record is not immune from public critique
oliverdarcy Truth sucks
oliverdarcy Nope. It doesn't cross any line. It was very well in line. Who is she to be saying George Washington's cancellation should be considered?
oliverdarcy Fake news
oliverdarcy So because Senator Duckworth lost her legs she is never to be questioned on her policy or her commentary? What an idiotic assertion. She is above criticism? oliverdarcy you have reached peak buffoon with this one.
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy This leftist with weeping and teeth gnashing - -Tucker’s over the target.
oliverdarcy TuckerCarlson and bigotry 👉👉👉
oliverdarcy Do you remember SNL and others mocking RepDanCrenshaw and his eye patch. Which he lost eye serving this country. Where are your articles about that 'SMEAR'
oliverdarcy The line he crossed is the Democrat Party line that you unfailingly espouse. Tool.
oliverdarcy That's right, these responses are the intolerant left trying to cancel out anything they don't like..... If SenDuckworth doesnt like the heat, get out of the kitchen..... For you leftys that means stop bitching if you can't handle dissent from your narrative. Got it?
oliverdarcy Again her service does not make her immune from criticism. This is a dumb take.
oliverdarcy keep crying
oliverdarcy CNN sucks
oliverdarcy The fact you were injured fighting for your country it doesn't give you the right to encourage looting, rioting, hatred towards a group of people. It doesn't nullify the hatred towards Christians, whites, conservatives.
oliverdarcy Was it okay for her to smear George Washington? He was a vet. She must have 'crossed the line' also.
oliverdarcy you constantly smear realDonaldTrump and lie to the public even if it's dangerous like the time your network said don't take HCQ but then 2 months later the same author said it works. you cross the line more than any fake news station today.
oliverdarcy So criticizing a senator for lying is now a smear? That’s interesting Seems like you smear people all the time and don’t care
oliverdarcy What part of what he said is not true? It is not a smear if it is factual based, correct? Silly me, what am I doing asking cnn about facts. They would not know one if it hit them in their swastika
oliverdarcy Dan Crenshaw would like a word
oliverdarcy Bullshit. Tucker was spot on. CNN doesn't get to pick and choose which military veterans can be criticized.
oliverdarcy Of course this is your take... nobody expected otherwise. At this point CNN is soooooo predictable.
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy SPEAK TRUTH
oliverdarcy She is the one disrespecting our heroes.
oliverdarcy Gotta add those lost legs in so that you can try and make him look worse, too bad you can't add her lost legs back to her
oliverdarcy That senator gave her legs for America. What have you sacrificed
oliverdarcy Being a vet doesn’t make you exempt from being a political moron.
oliverdarcy I didn't ask Oliver Darcy a goddamn thing.
oliverdarcy Remember when you defended Pete Davidson for actually mocking a veteran for being disabled? I remember.
oliverdarcy No it doesn't you do no get immunity from criticism for stuff you do and say today because of stuff you did 20 years ago. That is not how work.
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy This coming from CNN. Hahahahaha. 👍
oliverdarcy CNN, you are not low in ratings because you are left leaning, it’s because you don’t provide news at all! Some people, maybe most, sometimes just want to hear what happened in the world and not how they should feel.
oliverdarcy He is not smearing her service and sacrifice- he challenged her remarks about the Trump speech. It was almost as if she didn’t hear it and used CNN talking points. If service and sacrifice to the country frees you from criticism, then you can’t criticize me for my comments DAV
oliverdarcy Just because someone doesn’t have legs doesn’t mean they’re free from ridicule or scrutiny. Quit crying
oliverdarcy CNN is part of the problem! Senator Duckworth is a hero. Senator Duckworth should not be immune from receiving questions or criticisms from individuals who do not agree with her political point of views. Those who try to silence people are part of the problem. FreedomOfSpeech
oliverdarcy She smeared others too and so does every single day not even Baron Trump is spared in the mouth of liberals
oliverdarcy Carlson is a sorry p.o.s. like trump both are cowards .the senator did her part as a volunteer trump ran with his tail between his legs like a dog .
oliverdarcy Carlson and Hannity are Trump toadies.
oliverdarcy No he didn’t. And what he did say was right on.
oliverdarcy He did not smear SenDuckworth , she disgraced her service to this country and her loss of her limbs by politicizing it by saying 'Tucker should walk a mile in my legs', knowing full well the saying is 'walk a mile in my shoes'. I am disabled, so bring on the hate tweets. F HER
oliverdarcy Did you actually watch the segment? I hadn’t, but all your ranting along with history of lies made me watch the segment. He didn’t smear Duckworth. In his context she and many like her were rightfully included as hating our foundation and trying to erase it, the good and bad
oliverdarcy Which line?
oliverdarcy What did he say about her that was untrue?
oliverdarcy As usual, CNN has twisted the real story. He was discussing her wrong and ill informed points of view. You bring in her disability as a defense. One has nothing to do with the other however CNN deploys their usual tactics. Tired of always losing to Tucker in the ratings?
oliverdarcy Sorry, injuries don't preclude anyone from being criticized or wrong... Not how it works.. You put yourself out there, be prepared for discourse.
oliverdarcy You smeared Gen. Flynn for 3 years.
oliverdarcy How?
oliverdarcy TuckerCarlson speaks the truth. No wonder isn't a fan.
oliverdarcy I hope he looses more sponsors it's what he deserved. What has he sacrificed for This country. What a despicable man.
oliverdarcy I know a few Special Forces colleagues who would love to have a little word in your ear. Hey TuckerCarlson any free time this week?
oliverdarcy Benedict Arnold was wounded in battle fighting for the Patriots under General Washington. His valor in one moment didn't excuse his treason at a later time.
oliverdarcy Bahaha.
oliverdarcy CNN’s attempt to smear anyone others Trump crosses the line
oliverdarcy Great pillow by the way.
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy And what line would that be? Dare tell the truth line? A line many in media are afraid of ?
oliverdarcy Hb you guys apologize to GenFlynn
oliverdarcy 😂
oliverdarcy She’s OK with erasing George Washington from history. She’s a left wing extremist kook.
oliverdarcy Here's me guessing that's exactly the opposite of what he did...
oliverdarcy He has invited her on his show to explain why she hates America. I hope she excepts. My husband is a 60% disabled Veteran and has the exact opposite view that she has. Both her and Omar should explain their distain for the US.
oliverdarcy So now CNN is defending our soldiers. Gimme a break.
oliverdarcy Don Lemon shoved his hands down his shorts and rubbed his penis. He then forced a gay white man to sniff his contaminated fingers. Was it a hate crime? A sexual assault? Or both? The fact that Lemon (who claimed we have to “believe the accusers”) is still on CNN crosses the line.
oliverdarcy Again fake news hes talking about her words and actions not about her legs. Try and stay focused.
oliverdarcy It is the duty of journalists to question politicians. SenDuckworth entered the political fray, she must be asked why her positions have changed. The Purple Heart does not absolve her of poor judgement.
oliverdarcy Legs or not, people can be criticized...
oliverdarcy What line is there to cross that CNN didn't cross already?
oliverdarcy Did defend DanCrenshawTX from Pete Davidson?
oliverdarcy CNN started labeling their opinion pieces 'analysis' a little while back to attempt to give their shill articles more credence. Labeling it analysis and not opinion is FakeNews
oliverdarcy Being a combat veteran doesn't make you right. Losing your legs in combat doesn't either.
oliverdarcy Lose limbs become immune to criticism? Swinging for the fences now.
oliverdarcy Tucker Carlson was 100% correct
oliverdarcy This child...in constant need of attention
oliverdarcy Nope. She’s not above criticism.
oliverdarcy There’s a reason why TuckerCarlson consistently smashes CNN into oblivion in the ratings. He tells the truth.
oliverdarcy Because she lost her legs her record & comments are not touchable?
oliverdarcy Why, because it's true?
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy Wrong.
oliverdarcy And FoxNews won’t do anything about that. They support realDonaldTrump spreading his hate around on their network and TuckerCarlson sucks on that presidential teet like the rest of the anchors and Republicans across this country because they are ALL pussies who can’t stand up.
oliverdarcy Wrong.
oliverdarcy GFY
oliverdarcy How many times has Oliver and CNN gone after Republicans Brian Mast (Lost both legs) or Dan Crenshaw (lost an eye)? Oh right, that's because it's perfectly acceptable if you have an R next to your name. CNNEnemyOfThePeople
oliverdarcy Duckworth used her disability to get elected and now she will use it to defend her ignorance. It won't work and you are fake news.
oliverdarcy Tucker=Truth CNN=Lie till Death
oliverdarcy But CNN’s nonstop propaganda on Russia didn’t cross the line?
oliverdarcy God, you guys really suck. Its hard imagine sucking worse but you seem to find new lows of suckness everyday.
oliverdarcy Tucker is right on this one. CNN is almost always wrong...
oliverdarcy Because she's a wamen.
oliverdarcy If I lost both of my legs, would that mean I can make any measure of dumb and dangerous policy with full immunity from scrutiny?
oliverdarcy So are you saying we should treat a handicap Senator differently bc she's handicapped? I'm fairly certain handicapped ppl all over this country have fought hard and long to NOT be treated differently but ok. 🙄
oliverdarcy Rubbish. She's a politician and therefore fair game for criticism.
oliverdarcy He criticized her political views and called her a coward for not wanting to defend those views on his record breaking show, literally the highest rated cable news show ever. It has nothing to do with her service in Iraq
oliverdarcy I here we go after tucker now we read your currupt network like a book
oliverdarcy When I heard of her answer to veteran abuse in a system she was in charge of...that was beyond the pale. You don’t get to use your service as a shield to cover for abhorrent behavior.
oliverdarcy CNN going after the ratings leader. They might be better in the ratings if they weren't shit suckers.
oliverdarcy Does being an injured war veteran exempt one from criticism?
oliverdarcy No it doesn't
oliverdarcy Tucker2024
oliverdarcy The same dumb people that say you cannot criticise Greta Thunbergs opinions....it doesn't work like that
oliverdarcy Ummmm...the truth is painful I know. You are allowed to criticize Injured veterans who decide to work in politics afterwards. This has nothing to do with her injury. It has everything to do with her politics.
oliverdarcy It’s clear Duckworth didn’t watch the speech or flat out lied about Trump’s speech.
oliverdarcy I like how you throw in there 'who lost both legs' like that makes her immune from criticism.🤡
oliverdarcy Lmao.. she can be criticized
oliverdarcy Absolutely not. She was elected to office. She needs to answer questions about things she has said. Period.
oliverdarcy This reads like it was written by a high schooler I happened to see Tucker segment live (never watch the show, was in waiting room); this 'analysis' is misleading. Also it isn't an 'analysis', it is an opinion He was criticizing Duckwoth's unwillingness to appear to discuss
oliverdarcy Yeah, Tucker. She’s a coward. Where was she when you were bravely defending america’s freedom. Oh, wait...
oliverdarcy Bullshit. Duck worth is as vulnerable to criticism as any politician. You can appreciate her sacrifice for this country while being disgusted by her politics. She should be able to defend her positions...
oliverdarcy Nope.
oliverdarcy Lol CNN can suck balls
oliverdarcy Duck Worth is a traitor and should be treated as such. Spare me your false victimhood...
oliverdarcy Tucker no 1. CNN dead last. I guess the people have spoken. They prefer truth over your lies.
oliverdarcy Unless her brain is located in her legs, she is fair game.
oliverdarcy Only stupid people believe this
oliverdarcy I guess telling those vets who asked her for help and she told them to get bent didn’t cross the line huh CNN?
oliverdarcy Yeah who didn’t see this pandering self serving “analysis”? Politicians don’t get to say things like all the past presidents Trump talked about were traitors and get a pass for it, regardless of if you got injured serving your country.
oliverdarcy Tucker was correct. Now, let's talk about how CNN potentially killed over 60,000 by lying about Hydroxychloroquine. Drug is not only proven safe & readily available, but saved 50% patients for pennies. CNN LIED ABOUT IT - as CNN always does.
oliverdarcy Holding her accountable for her hate isn’t crossing a line. It’s just telling the truth
oliverdarcy LIAR CNN. TuckerCarlson has the highest rating & viewers ever but fake news leftists cant take it so they resort to smear tactic. Not gonna work buddy. This guy is clean as a whistle.
oliverdarcy But it was fine for you to smear GenFlynn?
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy I am grateful for her service and her sacrifice. But her injuries and her service do not excuse her idiocy. TuckerCarlson was spot on.
oliverdarcy No it didn't
oliverdarcy Benedict Arnold hurt his leg in Saratoga
oliverdarcy Oh shut up, ! As if lyou care about that this man has lost both legs. Save your crocodile tears. Nobody's going to take that from you anyway.
oliverdarcy She’s a liar. Prove she’s not or move on.
oliverdarcy TuckerCarlson is RIGHT CorruptDemocrats TheGreatAwaking SheepNoMore CNNHypocrisy
oliverdarcy Darcy’s analysis is, as usual, wrong. They actually pay you for this bilge?
oliverdarcy What the hell is she doing? She is trashing her own country. No patriot here!!!!😡😡
oliverdarcy What do her legs have to do with the fact that she is willing to see statues of Washington and Jefferson taken down? That is not right.
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy No one is above rebuke. No one!
oliverdarcy Lol. Tucker is the real deal he calls out both parties. When has CNN done that. Like NEVER. CNN is the most biased fake news. They promote violent looters and terrorist like BLM and ANTIFA
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy Fortunately Tucker Carlson is a big stain of himself… A real loser and orange man will find that out in a short time
oliverdarcy Advertise on his show and you lose my business forever!
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy Tucker did nothing wrong, Marxist Dems are allowed to be questioned it doesn’t matter who they are, keep up the good work TuckerCarlson
oliverdarcy Look at how the focus of his eyes is inward, not outward. He is 'looking into his own mind', fabricating stuff, self-hypnotizing, to make it possible for him to spout fabricated **** without his own mind running amok.
oliverdarcy No lying fascist CNN! Duckworth is trying to destroy the country that she gave an oath to defend!
oliverdarcy Just like with McCain, your previous service doesn’t give you a hall pass for life. People can disagree with any politician.
oliverdarcy TuckerCarlson is awesome. Commies hate him.
oliverdarcy Lol. Tucker calls it like he sees it. No sugar coating. Only difference between him and your network is he tells the truth.
oliverdarcy FoxNews how much longer will you tolerate this idiot?
oliverdarcy Every time I think trump or his base can't possibly go any lower, they do. What he did is despicable. The irony of the people who support a 5 time draft dodger attacking Vets who gave life and limb in service to their country. This is so appalling seeing people say he was right.
oliverdarcy Tucker has lost the plot...bigly!
oliverdarcy One reality this cruelty brings to fore is the reality of the dead conscience and the ease with which worse cruelty is metted out at foreigners.
oliverdarcy Jealous CNN? He is the highest rated news show... why are you spinning lies .. it is very unbecoming.
oliverdarcy CHINA'S NEWS NETWORK MUST PUNISH FREEDOM LOVING AMERICANS AND ALL THERE DEMOCRATIC VALUES.
oliverdarcy Not really. She hates America.
oliverdarcy The spoiled rich brat who is obsessed with projecting his racism onto others went too far? Eek. 🤦♂️ Say it ain’t so!
oliverdarcy Truth hurts. IStandWithTucker
oliverdarcy So you can't criticize her because she served in the military? Wow. I don't remember that being the standard when you trashed General Flynn GenFlynn 🙄🤔
oliverdarcy Any smear campaign against any veteran simply for disagreeing on a viewpoint is disgusting. Such people get my label PoS or piece of shit!
oliverdarcy Just because she is disabled does NOT make her a caring American!
oliverdarcy
oliverdarcy What ”line”? You do not get to draw the line. EVER.
oliverdarcy Tucker Sucker Carlson is a Confederate sympathizer... his ancestors were beaten by the Unionists...they are still suffering the pain of defeat...US Constitution needs to be rewritten by an inclusive Constituent Assembly of Native Americans, Blacks, Latinos, Asians, LGBTQ & Whites
