Countdown with Keith Olbermann, Episode 139: Capitol Police Go After McCarthy For Tucker TV Scandal [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.', 'Backgroundurl Avatar_Large', 'Nickname', 'Joined', 'Created_At', 'Story Count', 'N_Stories', 'Comment Count', 'N_Comments', 'Popular Tags'] Date: 2023-02-21 Episode #139 of the Countdown podcast is up at iHeart Radio. OnMy.FM link (which also links to his previous podcasts) ivoox also carries his podcast. Like they said about Chickenman, “He’s everywhere! He’s everywhere!” Preview: A-Block (1:42) SPECIAL COMMENT: The Kevin McCarthy/Tucker Carlson scandal has blown wide open as The Capitol Police Board meets to vote on whether or not to stop the Speaker from giving the Fox News [sic] Liar what Rep. Zoe Lofgren calls “a blueprint for bad guys on how to more successfully attack the Capitol.” House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries convenes his caucus this afternoon to take what action it can as Jeffries calls the collusion between McCarthy and Carlson “an egregious security breach”. In essence, Kevin McCarthy has STOLEN the January 6th video and handed it to Tucker Carlson, and Tucker Carlson and Fox News have already done more damage to this country than Al-Qaeda or ISIS or Atomwaffen or any other terrorist group could dream of. We’re approaching the 20th anniversary of the day Geraldo Rivera, live on Fox News [sic] Channel, gave away the position and movements of the 101st Airborne Division, and was literally escorted out of Iraq by the U.S. military. This underscores the reality that Fox News [sic] has NEVER cared about the troops, about freedoms, about America. It sells a product. The product is phony patriotism. The product is a distorted picture of America. The product is hate. The product is lies. It’s time to put the manufacturers of the product, Fox “News”, out of business. B-Block (22:18) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Trump Georgia Grand Jury presents Hint Number 32,753; Barney Rubble’s Body Double doubles down on the Red State/Blue State divorce but adds taking away voting rights for Democrats. x Marjorie Taylor Greene: "If Democrat voters choose to flee these Blue states...Well, once they move to a Red state, guess what? Maybe you don't get to vote for five years" pic.twitter.com/AcAPwmYXcu — Jason Campbell (@JasonSCampbell) February 21, 2023 Since Georgia is now a Blue State, does that mean Republicans are the one that wouldn’t be allowed to vote? Democrats make criminal referral on Ohio Train Disaster while Republicans hesitate to offend their corporate masters. (26:08) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: an unfortunate Washington Post headline (“Fatal Police Shootings Are Still Going Up, And Nobody Knows Why”), the really dumb Oklahoma congressman Kevin Hern: x Rep. Kevin Hern on Fox Business suggests President Biden went to Ukraine because of Hunter Biden's business dealings pic.twitter.com/CB8k8TM2hC — Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) February 21, 2023 and the really disturbing Alaska state legislator David Eastman who believes if an abused child is killed, “it’s actually a benefit to society.” C-Block (34:40) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: When I talk about Fox and its core value — evil — I’m not just repeating what I’ve heard. I was once fired, personally, by Rupert Murdoch, for telling the truth, and my bosses got dragged for it as well. That’s all the damage for now. Good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck.
