Tucker: Trump Capitol Protest Is Already Being Used as Pretext For Crackdown of Civil Liberties

RUSH EXCERPT:

CARLSON: “The Trump protest of the capital yesterday is already being used as a pretext for an unprecedented crackdown on civil liberties. In the last several hours, we have heard people in positions of power and authority demand those that support Donald Trump should no longer be allowed to publish books or use the Internet or fly on airplanes. Driving cars, holding jobs, those will be next, we are barely exaggerating, to justify mind-bending, terrifying demands like these, they are relying on lies and hysteria. What happened yesterday wasn’t simply that a political protest got out of hand after the president recklessly encouraged it — that is in fact what happened but it’s not what they are saying. Instead they are calling it domestic terrorism. CNN describes it as an insurrection, Chuck Schumer likened it to pearl harbor, it was our generations 9/11 and needless to say it was “White supremacy.” To name a small example, the Berkshire cool in Massachusetts, a boarding school that costs $64,000 a year to attend a sent a letter describing what happened as “These acts of violence and racism.” If you are a literal person tied to outdated western notions of linear thought and facts, that might confuse you — racism?”
