Tucker Carlson's father was CIA propaganda agent. Tucker applied to CIA

I didn't know Tucker's origin story until now.

Cliffs:

- Tucker's father Dick Carlson was longest serving director of CIA propaganda network (Voice of America)
- Tucker applied to CIA and was 'rejected'
- Tucker appointed to primetime slot of Fox News right when President who deep state arguably feared (at first) is elected/inaugurated

Interesting.

Thoughts?

Voice of America

In the summer of 1986, President Reagan announced his intention to nominate Carlson as an associate director of the United States Information Agency to succeed Ernest Eugene Pell.

Carlson became director of Voice of America, a U.S. government-funded, state-owned multimedia agency which serves as the United States federal government's official institution for non-military, external broadcasting.[14] It broadcasts 24 hours a day in nearly 50 languages to more than 130 million people around the world, with a full-time staff of 3,000 and a part-time staff of 1,200. Carlson was the longest-serving director in VOA's 50-year history.

Tucker Carlson applied to the CIA, but his application was denied, so he turned to journalism. “You should consider journalism,” his father told him. “They’ll take anybody.”

Why was he rejected? That might indicate something good actually. When the CIA, or Mossad and MI6, reject someone it is either because they are considered too stupid and not manipulatable or too smart and not manipulatable or too honest and not manipulatable (usually a combo of the aforementioned).

Devil's Advocate: Just because he says he was rejected doesn't mean he in fact was. Some would be skeptical the son of a lead CIA propaganda officer was actually rejected. And conveniently becomes a prime time journalist at a major channel.

Tucker is a blue blood, he's part of the Swanson family.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

He was rejected because he holds antiwar and anti-imperialist views. He's more of a libertarian and never trusted the security state. It's why he and Tulsi get along very well.

What is wrong with working for the cia at some point in your career? Or your father?

haven't looked into Tucker situation, but I see no problem with that.

Many young patriots choose to work for the CIA at some point.

Gross dude. The CIA has undermined American interests more often than it has helped them.

You don't at least find it an interesting coincidence the son of one of the most senior CIA propaganda officers becomes a top news anchor after applying and getting 'rejected' from the CIA?

And he is promoted right when Trump wins, and it's recently been revealed that Tucker hated Trump for all 4 years and thought Trump was destroying everything?

It's at least worth thinking about.

But Tucker has never supported CIA interests. Like ever. He has, if anything, repeatedly undermined the security state, like Tulsi Gabbard. Fuk Tucker himself ran the story on the CIA connections to Kennedy's shooter. It's not uncommon for a child to rebel. Maybe he doesn't like his father.

That Tucker thought Trump was a destructive assclown only reinforces my impression that deep down he was trying to do the right thing.

Going to have to agree with Wincel here. Almost everything Tucker did when he was with Fox went against the uniparty grain.

Since we are already going down the CIA rabbit hole then what the CIA is good at is coordinated psyops that usually revolve around personal attacks and character assassination. The goal is to create uncertainty/doubt and we are seeing this with the mass distributed leaked texts in the media.

Can you expand a little bit? As far as the CIA's potential role in the Tucker texts that he hates Trump. You're saying you think the texts are fake?

I am saying that the texts were likely out of context. Probably more of Tucker being frustrated he couldn't talk about the bigger issues facing America and being forced to talk about Trump as a direct result of the TDS meltdowns dominating the news cycle.

The texts were mass distributed in a coordinated way to create animosity towards Tucker, whose reporting had caused headaches to uniparty messaging. It's similar to character assassinations on Trump where he is both literally Hitler and zion-don at the same time. No matter what your opinions on Judaism it is designed to make you not like him. When both sides dislike someone it usually indicative they are probably the person you should support.

Very good point. That is something an intelligence agency would do.

CIA is huge and there are a lot of people that join and serve long careers and think they were doing good for their country. The reality is far more disturbing. I come to this conclusion after a few years of research into espionage with a focus on the CIA, Mossad, and MI6, and their connections to big business/banking/finance and their own personal agendas (drugs, weapons, etc.). The really disturbing aspect of the intelligence apparatus is their usage of psychological warfare on their own populations and foreign ones through the use of drugs/psychedelics, technology, and "gang stalking." Sick people who do sick things and a lot of people that work for the CIA either just do bureaucratic stuff and never see the truth or in many cases they never put 2 and 2 together, some keep their head in the sand, others don't care for patriotic or pragmatic reasons. The sick fuks get away with it because it is long established and no one can stop them for the most part. When you have high finance backing you and you control organized crime, there is no real threat to your position, especially if you also control the flow of information (or a significant amount of it).

There are many books I can recommend that are full of footnotes that can be researched independently. These few are not only easy to read for non-academics, they absolutely mog any academic book on the actual fact of the matter. Well worth the read. I can also suggest some actual academic books that I have used in the past for term papers:

https://www.amazon.com/One-Nation-Un...2641059&sr=8-1

https://www.amazon.com/One-Nation-Un...2641059&sr=8-2

https://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Tom-O-N...s%2C293&sr=8-1

https://www.amazon.com/Search-Manchu...s%2C366&sr=8-1



Not great, but not bad either:

https://www.amazon.com/Poisoner-Chie...s%2C294&sr=8-1


Academic but not bad:

Those are real texts from Tucker, who has Trump Derangement Syndrome. Said Trump has only destroyed things for 4 years of his Presidency and called Trump a demonic force.

Not a meme created by me.

So why on earth, if Tucker really hated Trump, would Murdoch get rid of him? Seems to me, if you want to continue working at Fox now, you will get in line behind the Anti-Trumpers or you will be shown the door...
