A jury says “no you can’t slowly murder black people in the street in front of us all, come on” prompting a maniacal break down from America’s top rated white supremacist.
Edit: oh and it should go without saying, America isn’t boarded up but it Feels True™ to the Tucker audience which is good enough for him. I suspect a good 40% of his Joker laugh was delight in the lie.

The problem with Tucker is that he’s not a real reporter, he a television personality. Silencing people is the tell-tell sign.
