Here's what the Capitol Police told me on this topic a couple of weeks ago: https://t.co/mx78h3cCSX

I would refer Mr. Sargent to the comments of Little Rock School Board Member Ali Nolan, to the Arkansas State Senate:

People like State Senator Jane English (R-AR) will be the demise of the Republican party. Students from Little Rock Central HS show up to try and participate in the process only to be interrupted and shutdown by her. Must watch!👇#wtpBlue #DemVoice1 #Fresh pic.twitter.com/6kEwz3acVf

“By talking to them and cutting them off in this way, believe me, you are giving them much more of a platform than you would have if you had just listened to their criticism of the amendment in the first place," Noland said. "They showed up after school on their own time to tell you these amendments do not satisfy their concerns.”

Tucker doesn't need the platform.  Tucker doesn't need the oxygen.  Even GOP Senators and FoxNews reporters denounced Tucker's BS.  The White House has joined in. 

“We agree with the chief of the Capitol Police and the wide range of bipartisan lawmakers who have condemned Tucker Carlson’s false depiction of the violent attack on our Constitution and the rule of law — which cost police officers their lives.” — The White House.

His attempt at proving there was "no violence" on January 6th was denounced by a lawyer defending a Proud Boy client, in open court!  It is universally agreed Tucker added to a long line of GOP flops. (I refer you to my link above.) Giving Democrats access to 41,000 hours of tape and saying "FIND SOMETHING!!!!" sounds more like the job of the anti-Rupert Murdoch than the sensible Democrats who are filleting the GOP in every stupid committee hearing (that has nothing to do with pursuing legislation) that the GOP calls.  

The State Senator from Arkansas made the mistake of disrespecting the people who came before her because of their age and their political opinions.  You would make the mistake of giving Tucker far more respect than he deserves. And you want to give Tucker more opportunities to "rebut" the rebuttal that would come from picking more videos in a "cherry-picking war"?

Rep. McGovern: "January 6 was an attack on our democracy, and now Tucker Carlson has chosen to side with the enemies of democracy. But what's most alarming about all this was that he was aided and abetted by Republican Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy ... this is a new low." pic.twitter.com/E1U0tb9O7X

So let's get hold of some snippets of video to further make our point? Quick question: how many people watch Tucker Carlson, ever? And how many watched some or all of the J6 Committee hearings, or saw the extensive coverage of them? Who is giving Carlson as much attention? Bueller? Ferris Bueller?

Do you miss the days of "Dems in disarray," or something?
