Tucker Carlson Amplifies Paid Russian Stooge and Iranian Regime Shill!
Quotes below!
John Kiriakou is a convicted felon. He is a propagandist shill for the Iranian regime and a paid Russian TV personality.
It cannot be any clearer by now that Carlson is promoting our adversaries for the soul purpose of destroying the “America First” Trump legacy.
In today’s episode, Kiriakou dogs Israel implying they control our elected leaders—this has been a consistent theme, by most if not all, of the guests on the Tucker Carlson podcast.
The crackpot convicted felon speaker in the below Tucker Carlson episode is John Kiriakou, a former CIA officer who leaked covert classified information to a journalist.
John was/is a paid cohost on Russian state media as well. In today’s episode on TCN, he continues to shill for Iran and Russia:
* On American deaths from Iranian-linked terrorism: “we’re talking single digits over the last several decades.”
* “Hamas has never carried out an anti-American terrorist attack.” (He notes the same for the Muslim Brotherhood.)
* “I feel like sometimes we act in Israel’s best interests rather than in our own best interests. I think this is one of those cases.”
* “Iran… is actually one of the most liberal countries in the entire region.” (He and Tucker both note this is something “the only ones who haven’t been… we’re the only people who know that.”)
“And I also don’t know why Russia’s our enemy, but big picture.”
Key quotes regarding Israel:
“I feel like sometimes we act in Israel’s best interests rather than in our own best interests. I think this is one of those cases.”
“AIPAC, if you are not 100% pro-Israel in your voting record, they will primary you and they will spend millions of dollars to defeat you. That scares most members of Congress.”
“The manipulation is so ubiquitous, you almost just don’t even know it’s happening because everyone’s singing from the same hymnal.”
On AIPAC’s daily presence and pressure in Congress “They practically had offices up there… ‘Remember Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel, remember.’”
John Kiriakou was charged in 2012 with multiple felonies under the Intelligence Identities Protection Act and Espionage Act for leaking classified information to journalists, including the identity of a covert CIA officer. One leak reportedly reached Guantánamo defense teams, who used it to identify and photograph the officer and show images to detainees, endangering operations and lives. He pleaded guilty to disclosing the covert officer’s identity; all other charges were dropped in a plea deal. He was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison (served roughly 23-28 months).
After his release, he began working as a host and contributor for Russian government-funded outlets Sputnik Radio and RT, drawing accusations that he is a reckless leaker and Russian propagandist. Critics label him a traitor who endangered national security and colleagues.
