Tucker Carlson Explains World War 2

As a Korean, I want to explain what’s really happening in our country right now. Our current president, Lee Jae-myung, is a fake president who won through a rigged election with help from the Chinese Communist Party. Our real president, Yoon Suk-yeol — the one who actually loves the Korean people and believes in freedom and democracy — is locked up in a tiny prison cell. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party, which has been infiltrated by Chinese spies, and President Lee are pushing policies that are destroying South Korea. This year alone, the stock market has crashed several times, and many young Koreans have taken their own lives. Like most of our cabinet ministers, the Defense Minister is also a Chinese spy. Under this spy-controlled Defense Ministry, South Korean soldiers standing face-to-face with North Korean troops have not been given live ammunition. Koreans only recently found out that our soldiers have been confronting the North Korean military with empty guns for months. Now they’re even talking about taking the guns away completely and making our soldiers stand guard with sticks instead. North Korea has repeatedly crossed the border and spent up to 10 hours a day planting landmines, yet the government — now controlled by the Chinese Communist Party — says nothing and tells us not to provoke North Korea. On top of that, the Korean government allowed visa-free entry for Chinese nationals, and a huge number of Chinese people have flooded into the country. This has caused a sharp rise in human trafficking, kidnapping, and murder. Disappearances linked to organ harvesting have also increased dramatically. They’re even planning to bring in 100 million Chinese people visa-free over the next 10 years — in a country of only 50 million people. In short, Lee Jae-myung and the Democratic Party are trying to dismantle the Republic of Korea, pull it away from freedom and democracy, and hand it over to China. That’s also why they’re aggressively pushing multicultural immigration policies. If you don’t want South Korea to fall into the hands of the Chinese Communist Party and radical Islamists, please share our voices. We’ve been trying for years to get the world to see what’s happening, but the global media almost never reports the truth about our country. South Korea is now 99% under the control of the Chinese Communist Party. The last 1% is being held together only by the U.S. troops still stationed here and by ordinary Korean citizens who have been protesting in the streets nonstop, day and night. Yet Lee Jae-myung and the Democratic Party are doing everything they can to force the U.S. military out and take back wartime operational control, so they can open the door wide for China and North Korea. Also, since July 7, 2026, a revised version of the Information and Communications Network Act (what Koreans call the “mouth-shutting law”) has been in effect. Under this law, people can actually be sent to prison for criticizing the government or criticizing China. Because of this, many Koreans who tried to speak out on social media or at protests have been investigated and jailed. Freedom of religion has become a luxury in South Korea. Pastors who speak out about what’s happening are being thrown in prison. The government is now saying that if churches get involved in politics, they will be shut down and all their assets will be seized by the state. Is this North Korea? No. This is South Korea in October 2026. Please, share this as widely as you can.

@IT_unhinged This is fake. Any company this incompetent deserves to die

Bernie Sanders says the top 1% owns more than the bottom 93%, that fewer than a thousand billionaires got $2.2 trillion richer last year, and that it's "obscene." It's the most seductive and most wrong economic argument of our time. Let me explain why. First, wealth distribution follows a power law. Always. Everywhere. Books, music, startups, followers on X, goals in soccer. A small minority captures most of the value. That's not a bug of capitalism. It's the mathematical signature of every system where value gets created. So the only question that matters isn't "how big is the rich's slice?" It's "is the cake growing, and is the slice of the poorest growing with it?" And the answer is yes. In 1990, more than one human in three lived in extreme poverty. Today it's about one in ten. During exactly the period when billionaires multiplied. Bernie shows you the slice. He never shows you the cake. Second thing he won't tell you: past a certain level, wealth stops being consumption. It becomes capital allocation. Elon Musk isn't sleeping on a pile of cash. He owns stakes in Tesla, SpaceX, xAI. Jeff Bezos owns Amazon stock. That "$2.2 trillion" isn't sitting in a checking account. It's factories, rockets, data centers, millions of jobs. Nobody can eat $100 billion. You can only decide where to invest it. Once you understand that, the whole debate changes. The real question becomes: who allocates capital better? The people who built Amazon, SpaceX and Nvidia? Or politicians? A 5% wealth tax isn't "taking money from the rich." It's taking investment decisions away from people who proved they can create value and handing them to people who proved the opposite. Because the fundamental difference between an entrepreneur and a politician is consequences. The entrepreneur invests his own money. If he allocates badly, he loses everything. The market corrects him brutally, no appeal. That's why most startups die: the system kills bad decisions. The politician invests other people's money. If he allocates badly, nothing happens. Worse, he gets a bigger budget to "fix the problem." Milton Friedman put it better than anyone. There are four ways to spend money. Your money on yourself: you care about price and quality. Your money on others: you care about price. Others' money on yourself: you care about quality. Others' money on others: you care about nothing. Government is the fourth box. By design. Perfect example: California high-speed rail. Approved in 2008 for about $33 billion. Current estimated cost: over $100 billion. Passengers carried: zero. No entrepreneur would have survived that. The politicians who pushed it built careers on it. And when allocation has no consequences, it eventually finds a buyer. A politician who controls billions without accountability becomes the most profitable target in the world for anyone who wants to steer that money. The irony is that the left that rails against billionaires is itself funded by billionaires. George Soros is one of the biggest Democratic donors in history. The Gates Foundation shapes public health policy across the planet. Politicians don't fight billionaires. They pick their own. The ones who fund the state over the ones who compete with it. So if we actually want fewer poor people, we have to stop judging ideas by their intentions and start judging them by their results. And the results are brutally clear. China, 1978: Deng Xiaoping opens the economy to markets. More than 800 million people escape extreme poverty. The largest retreat of misery in human history. Not through redistribution. Through the freedom to build. India, 1991: liberalization. Same movie. South Korea and North Korea: same people, same language, same starting point in 1953. One became one of the most advanced economies on earth. The other has famines. Poland and Ukraine: comparable living standards in 1990. Today the average Pole is more than three times richer than the average Ukrainian. Argentina: a year and a half of liberalization, and the poverty rate falls from over 50% to around 30%. No country in history escaped poverty by punishing the people who build. Every single one did it by letting them build. And if you want to see what Bernie's program looks like in real life, you don't have to imagine it. It exists. It's called France. We've been running it for 45 years. Mass nationalizations in 1981. Two years later, Socialist president Mitterrand has to reverse course into austerity. Retirement at 60. The 35-hour workweek. A wealth tax for 35 years. Hundreds of wealthy households left every year for Belgium, Switzerland, London, taking their capital, their companies and their future taxes with them. Macron finally scrapped it in 2018. Hollande's 75% tax: raised a few hundred million, drove talent out, abandoned after two years. One of the highest tax burdens in the OECD. Public spending around 57% of GDP, a record in the developed world. Last balanced budget: 1974. Public debt: over €3.4 trillion. Mass unemployment for four decades. If taxing the rich and growing the state made people prosperous, France would be the richest country on the planet. It isn't. GDP per capita in France is barely more than half of America's. It's lower than Mississippi, the poorest state in the US. Not a single global tech giant. Our best engineers build Silicon Valley instead. I've been going back and forth between Paris and San Francisco for years. I see it every week. And California is about to replay the movie. Prop 40, on the ballot November 3rd, would take 5% of billionaires' net worth. Even Gavin Newsom, a Democratic governor, opposes it. The state's own nonpartisan budget analyst warns that income tax revenue could drop every year if the wealthy leave. Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Peter Thiel have reportedly already started moving their assets out. You don't fight poverty by shrinking the top. You fight it by growing the cake. Bernie wants a society where nobody has too much. I want a society where nobody has too little. The first has been tried everywhere and produces equality in stagnation. The second lifted a billion people out of misery. Choose.

The top 1% owns more wealth than the bottom 93%. 1 man owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of households. Less than a thousand billionaires got $2.2 trillion richer in the last year. Obscene. Yes. We need a 5% billionaire wealth tax in California and throughout America.

@sometherapist Like every idiotic meme, we will never be free of it. Fucking horoscopes won't die, why would this?

I’m French. I want to talk to Americans who are about to vote Democrat. Not to insult you. To warn you. I come from your future. In France we did everything your progressive politicians promise. Free healthcare, free college, generous welfare, strong unions, heavy regulation, high taxes on the rich, a state that takes care of everything. Public spending close to 57% of GDP, one of the highest on the planet. On paper, it’s the dream. Here’s what it looks like from the inside. France hasn’t passed a balanced budget since 1974. Our debt is above 3,300 billion euros. Interest on that debt is becoming one of the biggest items in the national budget. Our hospitals are collapsing despite record funding. Our schools rank lower every year. Young people with degrees can’t afford an apartment in the city they were born in. Our best engineers leave for London, Zurich and San Francisco. And the rich you wanted to tax? They left too, and took the jobs with them. The promise was protection. The result is stagnation. The worst part is that nobody in France voted for decline. Every single step sounded generous, compassionate, reasonable. One more program. One more regulation. One more tax to fund it. Each step alone makes sense. Fifty years of them, and you wake up in a country that can no longer build a nuclear plant on time or keep its streets safe. I love America because it’s the one place on earth where people still believe they can build something from nothing. I came to Silicon Valley as a self-taught kid and it changed my life. That spirit is the most precious thing your country has. Before you vote, ask yourself one question: is the program you’re voting for making America more like America, or more like France? Trust me. You don’t want to be France.

Yes, 5 percent of what America's 989 billionaires own is real money. About $420 billion. To reach Khanna's $4 trillion, you take it again every year for a decade. But don't worry, it's only the billionaires. And they pay in stock, true. Tesla, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, the same companies sitting in your 401(k). Every year, billions in shares get sold to pay the bill, right on top of the stocks you're retiring on. You can watch your balance drop while they make the rich pay. Take 5 percent a year for ten years and, with no growth, 40 percent of the base is gone. Not one dollar goes to the $40 trillion Washington already owes. All of it goes to new promises, free college, free childcare, a government fund for factories, that cost money forever. When the billionaire money runs thin, the bill moves down to the next bracket, and the next, while the old debt keeps growing. But feel the warmth of collectivism: everyone's retirement shrinking together, equal at last. The billionaires pay 5 percent. That was the promise, and your 401(k) pays the rest.

Prop 40 is the most important ballot initiative in America. A 5% tax on the 989 billionaires in our country would raise $4 trillion. We have to ask a basic question: Are we going to be New Deal Democrats or donor class Democrats?

Tragic scenes in France. Israel condemns the violence from BOTH SIDES, and calls for immediately starting negotiations for a two-state solution in France, which is the only way to end the conflict.

Hi X: my first real post here. I've been largely silent (researching, writing, and brewing) for 3 years since October 7. Watching the West implode in a calculated subversion operation that uses my people - Israelis and Jews - as a political football to destroy American coalitions from within. That "antizionism" operation has been entirely too successful. It's embarrassing. It has managed to elevate the most extreme, ignorant voices and convince "normies" that there is something toxic about Israel when nothing could be further from the truth. I'm finally ready to respond with my new book: Seeds of Subversion: the modern weaponization of ancient Jew hatred. Seeds of Subversion. Out today. seedsofsubversionbook.com amazon.com/dp/1067850805?… @ConceptualJames @SpencerGuard @MaxAbrahms @MaxNordau @kylieoralobell @BillAckman @shaunmmaguire @benshapiro @bdomenech @ShabbosK @SethDillon @Mr_Andrew_Fox @mdubowitz @HilzFuld @jconricus @AmitSegal @EinatWilf @LekhtNaya @pianozack @adam_louis52328

@walterkirn Amazing! Yet another baseless claim from third hand hearsay. The level of evidence is totally commensurate with the wild unsupported claims.

@walterkirn 100% in that case hard evidence would leak. There is more gravity for that than anything else ever in the history of humanity. The complete lack of real evidence proves we remain unvisited.

Hey @grok, is it true that more Palestinian women in the West Bank have been killed by other Palestinians in "honor killings" than by Israeli security forces? Start with yes or no.

Three years ago, on 7 October, my worldview changed—not so much because of the atrocities committed by Hamas (what else would you expect from a genocidal terrorist group?), but because of the shocking response to those atrocities from many of my “progressive” friends: from apologetics and denial to outright jubilation. That day, I was jolted out of my complacency and woke up to the poisonous ideology that had quietly taken hold across large swathes of the Left and academia. My forthcoming book, The Betrayal of the Enlightenment (@PitchstoneBooks), reconstructs how self-proclaimed progressives, of all people, could have arrived at this point.

It really is wild watching people who managed to resist the moral panics of Trump derangement, woke, metoo, BLM, covid, vaccines...fall prey to Israel derangement, fall for obvious anti-west propaganda, and side with a barbaric death cult.

Would I get arrested for posting this in the UK? Orwell wrote 1984 as a warning. Britain read it as an instruction manual. 62,000+ arrests for "communications offences" in five years (~34 a day). So I made a music video about it.

No woman can be a trans woman. The defining characteristic of a trans women is being a man. No study has proven that trans women don't commit sexual offences against women at the same, or higher, rate as other men. There are proportionally more trans-identified men in jail for sex offences in the UK than there are among male prisoners as a whole. 98% of sex criminals are men. 88% of victims of sexual crimes are women and girls. That's why you don't belong in spaces where women and girls are undressed or otherwise vulnerable. We are not your validation props. Campaign for third spaces if you want. Women's spaces are taken.

If you're curious why the media is spreading so much false information about the riots, consider: — The French Culture Ministry paid €204.7 million in direct aid to the news media in 2023, of which Le Monde received €8.3 million, L’Humanité €6.5 million and Libération €6.3 million — The @AFPfr runs "fact-checks" in 26 languages, received €120 million from the French state in 2025, against €200.3 million in commercial revenue. @AFP is French government propaganda and disinformation — European governments are committed through a UN agreement to spread pro-mass migration propaganda by funding it directly. The “migration compact,” which 152 governments voted for in the UN General Assembly in 2018, commits them to “stopping allocation of public funding... to media outlets that systematically promote intolerance, xenophobia, racism and other forms of discrimination towards migrants," which is broadly interpreted to cover criticism of mass migration policies — To maintain control over news media, the European Commission funds a network of 15 fact-checking hubs with tens of millions of euros, and its rules require platforms to give priority to notices from “trusted flaggers.” — Governments fund think tanks to produce reports, including ones demanding censorship, that the news media cover sympathetically and editorialize in support of. — The @ISDglobal in London — which demands censorship of people it disagrees with on climate change, gender, and migration, refuses to speak with journalists, and lists a phony address — lists among its funders the British Foreign Office, the U.S. Departments of Homeland Security and Justice, the German Foreign Office and the European Commission, along with Google and Microsoft. isdglobal.org/partnerships-a… — Public reported in 2024 that ISD and the German fact-checker Correctiv, both government-funded, had spread false claims about German farmers and opposition politicians.

The media have spent the last decade demanding online censorship of right-wing populists to avoid "real-world harm." Now, they're promoting left-wing disinformation — including that migrant students are "deprived" — that's driving street violence.
