The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I put is down to seeing the shift in public perception and continued pandering for $. I can only hope he does NOT have political aspirations, though after Trump, it is true, anyone can be president.

I respectfully ask you to just contemplate:

Isn't Tuckers ratings and income WAY DOWN now - versus when he was doing the FOX thing?

And in general: IF you wanted to maintain high standing in American Political Media - seriously - would you advise yourself "Let's piss in Israel's eye......that will really catapult your career to great places"

I'm not holding up Tucker as a paragon of virtue. I'm saying -- -when we see a unicorn - let's not appoint a committee on Unicorn Motivations. I say, embrace it, feed it, clothe it, and house it. Doesn't mean we have to agree with Tucker on this or that, just means---I' love Tucker to maybe open some otherwise closed ears and eyes and also, maaaaaybe show that there is life in the media or politics if you dont bend the knee for AIPAC.

Otherwise, Israel and AIPAC know full well that they can rely on our tribal differences - and divide and defeat us meaning we continue to kill our soldier, kill civilians, for conflicts that seem to be eternal-----often involving one entity - since the beginning of time, in all corners of the world in all eras of time.

If you are a politician or a media figure and you start asking questions about "why" and AIPAC----I am a Democrat. I'm a Republican. I'm MAGA, I'm The Squad. I'm a pinko. I'm a flag waver. I'm a Whole Foods Shopper. I'm a WalMart customer. Doesn't matter.
