Tucker Carlson’s interview with Joe Kent, fmr director of National Counterterrorism Center, was dubbed in Persian & broadcast live on the Islamic regime’s propaganda channel. The broadcast is shown alongside footage of the IRGC targeting a U.S. fighter jet & pro-regime rallies.

Sixteen years ago, one man stood alone on a grassy hill at a music festival in Washington State, USA, and started dancing by himself. People glanced over and looked away. Some laughed. His roommate leaned in and warned him people were filming him. He did not stop. Then one stranger got up and joined him. Then another. Then the hillside tipped. Within minutes, hundreds of people were sprinting from across the field to be part of something that, thirty seconds earlier, had been one man being laughed at in a field. Someone filming from higher up the hill said quietly: "See what one man can do. One man can change the world." The clip spread across the internet in 2009. Entrepreneur Derek Sivers played it at a TED conference to explain how movements actually begin. Not with the first person brave enough to start, he argued, but with the first person willing to join them. Collin Wynter, the man dancing alone, later said he had no idea he had done anything special. He was just tired of watching everyone sit still.



“The US is not going to defend and cannot defend Taiwan.” @TuckerCarlson tells @zannymb that America has reached the limits of its power and has to now share it with China. Watch the full Insider interview: econ.st/4dDjBlU

Has Donald Trump betrayed America First? @TuckerCarlson thinks so. In an interview with @zannymb, Mr Carlson argues the war on Iran was launched on Israel's timetable, not America’s. Watch the full interview on The Insider at 6pm London time: econ.st/4rCV3gj

This kind of stuff happens during war. We should be on guard.
