If you watch the full interview, it’s pretty clear the conversation was far from “intense.” There are a few moments of mild, respectful pushback, but it’s largely a cordial, friendly, and agreeable exchange. There is a reason the New York Times constantly runs polished, quasi-glamorous profiles of figures like Carlson, Nick Fuentes, Marjorie Taylor Greene, James Fishback, etc.—but hardly ever does the same for senior Trump administration officials or right-of-center media/political figures in good standing with the president and his team. It is because Tucker and his ilk represent everything MAGA conservatives aren’t—but what New York Times readers want to believe them to be: cartoonishly bigoted and far too fringe, conspiratorial, and bizarre to win national elections—yet nevertheless, substantively much closer to the far-left on foreign and economic policy questions.

Correct. Tim Pool has discussed this on his show multiple times, but politics doesn't bring in numbers anymore and right-wing pundits are pivoting to culture and lifestyle commentary to expand their audiences.

Not that this stuff doesn't contain some elements of truth, but I notice that conservatives have gotten unhealthily obsessed with various efforts to pathologize and psychoanalyze why people disagree with them — all this "luxury beliefs" stuff blah blah. It's loser shit.

Here’s Mayor Pete announcing the Biden administration’s decision to fight the Jet Blue and Spirit merger so they could protect consumers and ensure low fares. Now the airline doesn’t exist and passengers are stranded across the country.

It's astonishing that anyone still listens to the antitrust populists given their track record.

The Big Four airlines (American, Delta, Southwest, United) control 75% of the U.S. market. Fewer choices = higher prices for you.

Most people aren't paying attention anymore, but Venezuela has worked out. 1) More political prisoners released than ever before 2) Delcy is purging Maduro loyalists 3) Supporters of Machado can now organize 4) More oil flowing Trump did a heroic thing by removing Maduro.

Given the news today that Spirit Airlines is shuttering and thousands of people are losing their jobs, I think we should honestly assess whether the Garland DoJ stopping the JetBlue merger with Spirit Airlines was the right call. Perhaps it was but any analysis must consider as part of the equation the loss to so many families ro decide.
