Few members of the media have been as sober as Tucker Carlson when it comes to assessing the coronavirus.
The Fake News Media started a wild fire with the news in an attempt to attack President Trump.
But now Tucker Carlson just exposed one shocking reality about the coronavirus.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson has taken time to acknowledge that certain things should be in place to help deal with an outbreak like coronavirus.
He took the opportunity to acknowledge “there should be a plan to respond rapidly in ways that assure the public that the people in charge know what they’re doing.” He continued, “Going forward, our leaders ought to be certain we have enough medicine and tests and hospital beds, at least in case something awful happens unexpectedly – because it will.”
But after acknowledging the obvious, Carlson turned his attention to a few things that many Americans may be forgetting while the Fake News Media attempts to drown out everything else in their attempt to fear monger and weaponize the outbreak against President Trump and his campaign.
Carlson began, “First, borders matter. It turns out that immigration isn’t some boutique political issue that only activists need to care about.” He continued to say, “Immediately after the coronavirus began to spread globally, sane countries started to secure their borders.”
Upon news of the virus many countries were able to deter the immediate spread across their borders to better prepare for a potential outbreak. For example, Israel implemented aggressive border control measures successfully to prevent an immediate and aggressive outbreak.
Tucker digressed, “Unfortunately, nothing like that could ever happen here in the U.S. Democrats would denounce it instantly as racist and xenophobic. So maybe Nancy Pelosi will give us a stern lecture about how immoral Israel is.”
Carlson was taking time to not incite fear, but to encourage his audience to think and to remember how fragile our society really is.
It is unfortunate that it took a global outbreak to wake people up to the reality.
Carlson closed in saying, “If one of your kids had a bad infection, you would do anything for antibiotics. But our leaders don’t control those drugs. China does. The Chinese manufacture our entire supply of antibiotics, not to mention countless other goods your family literally could not live without.
And here’s the worst news: The Chinese hate us and have threatened to withhold life-saving medicine from us. Our most powerful enemy in the world has the power of life and death over our country.”
Carlson closed with a cold reality and encouraging his audience that we should fix this.
For many Americans the coronavirus outbreak has stirred up a storm.
Maybe we were not as prepared as we could have been, but the good news is that we don’t have to panic and go into a tailspin.
We will fix this and moving forward it’s important to remember who our leaders are and the decisions they make that can either protect us, or destroy us.
The Democrats have been pushing for open borders and “playing ball” with China.
Now look at where that has got us.
Pants on Fire News will keep you up-to-date on any further developments.

and all this plain, obvious logic is exactly why the left hates Tucker Carlson so much. Calling a spade, a spade – and that is a referral to the deck of cards, so don’t go looking for some racial slur!

That has to be one of the most stupid articles I have ever read. It is full of half-truths and some outright lies. Really Tucker, you must have your eyes closed to the whole world now!!!

Our American society has become largely un-civilized.
For that we can thank the dem and rino left-wing fake-libs.

THERE IS ALWAYS THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE DEMOCRATS EMBRACE THE IDEAL THAT CHINA RELEASE THE BIOCHEMICAL VIRUS TO RUIN PRESIDENT TRUMP & PROMISE CHINA A NEW TRADE DEAL TO SUPPORT THEIR POWER OVER AMERICA.

I believe President Trump made mention of the fact that we needed bring drug making back to America when he ran for President but of course the dims down played that. We cannot depend on any one country for anything, we proved that with oil and Saudi Arabia.

Our government cannot make medicine and they cannot force USA companies to make it.
But tariffs on the medicines can make it profitable to be made in the USA.

Somebody tell Tucker-
On the basis of 30 years bench experience with VSV, Sendai virus, measles virus, HIV-1/AIDS and HHV-6, I offer this simple home remedy to ease the disease course in people already seriously infected with the new Coronavirus COVID-19
Take one teaspoonful of CsCl (cesium chloride) mixed in a glass of water (or better, in a glass of orange juice or tomato juice to hide the saltiness), wait 4-6 hours, then take a half-teaspoonful of KCl (potassium chloride) in juice, or eat a banana. The CsCl “bends” the viral polymerase and slows the viral rate of replication allowing the immune system to catch up. CsCl is currently FDA approved for clinical use (to reduce cachexia in late stage cancer patients), but has a serious side effect: it causes hypokalemia (low blood potassium, with attendant cardiac problems) when taken on a chronic basis. Therefore, patients should not take more than 3 doses of CsCl. The KCl and the banana (which is full of potassium) are taken to rebalance the electrolytes. CsCl and KCL are not prescription items, but are hard to find in pharmacies. They can be ordered online from e.g. Amazon.com. One teaspoonful of CsCl weighs about 19 grams; a half-teaspoonful of KCl weighs about 8 grams. To further boost the immune system, take multiple doses of AirBorne, which can be found in most pharmacies.
This recipe won’t prevent catching COVID-19, it won’t kill the virus, but it might save your life.

Hell, they own us. Past and current leadership has sold us to the enemy so that they could play “Big Dog” and send money to all those foreign nations and pay illegals and refugees more welfare than they ever gave to American citizens – free housing, food, medicare and even “cash”. Our elected Representatives have taken advantage of us and haven’t even bothered to kill us.

Let me pose THIS shocking reality.
Test or no test…won’t stop people from catching this. Having a clean test might just give the misguided notion they won’t catch it. If you are able to stay away from others, in particular those for whom the disease would likely be serious or fatal, do that. That is the sum total of all you can do. Personally, if I were not one of the group who seriously hopes not to get the disease, I’d get it and go on. Symptoms are mild for healthy people. And it’s not any more serious than the flu…..except for people like me (72, COPD, on oxygen).

For a long, long time we are dealing with our main enemy, thanks to our politicians
and their plan for the globalization. In the past many good american leaders
and patriotic public figures are warning us about this to happen
but nobody pay attention and laughed of them.
Now every body is concern and in panic. This is a proof and the moment for
our leaders to take care of our the destiny. God protects us all and
God protects America

Sorry Tucker, but for someone with just a high school education you are truly stupidest guy on the news today. No one in the DEM has gone against Trump. He has done that to himself by first taking six months to inform the people of virus. Yes six months, then he tried to blame Obama for not doing any with the H1 flu. Which was began on April 24 and by April 26 Obama was on TV informing the public. Another thing that Trump did is tell the public that when the come April and it go warmer the virus would be gone. How stupid can Trump be to make such a statement. That and much more on live TV.

“Going forward, our leaders ought to be certain we have enough medicine and tests and hospital beds, at least in case something awful happens unexpectedly – because it will.”
How does Carlson propose such a thing might happen. Turn out produce and distribute more doctors, hospitals, hospital beds, millions of tests, and respirators, OVERNIGHT! Demanding the IMPOSSIBLE is simply HYSTERICAL. Carlson has been among the worst at creating panic!

@Carmen and Nancy! Your stupidity is very apparent. You should try running for a N.Y. political office like a certain bartender. You’d be shoo-ins.

In response to Dr. Blumberg, there is a much simpler was to deal with any virus or other potential infections. A teaspoon of ordinary Baking Soda in an 8 to 10 oz glass of water teo to three times a day will adjust you body’s pH above 7.0. Ideally you want it to be 7.25 to 7.35. Virus’ cannot live in an alkaline environment. Additionally; take large doses of vitamin C (2000 – 3000mg and Echinacea (3 or 4 caplets) two or three times per day for a few days. Even if you are already feeling flu like symptoms, they will quickly fade. The Vitamin C and Echinacea will greatly increase your immune response.

Call a Spade a Spade x Where did this Virus Originate and Who is Responsible – Sim Question that needs a Simple Answer

Hey Carmen, Why don’t you have a wild discovery and actually find FACTS before you start spewing highly misinformed BS. NO ONE knew about this virus until the Doctor who was trying to warn people about it became sick with it. Then it was discovered that Chinese leadership had admonished the doctor and accused him of false reports. After the doctor became sick and the communist leadership could not hide it anymore, it was released to the west, as a NEW virus. Actually by that time it had been an active virus in China for weeks. The doctor died though so no one will get the truth from China. Now the fools on the left in America are doing everything they can think of to put the blame on President Trump. Anyone with eyes can clearly see that.

Hey Jay, Yes the doctor in China died but before he died there were many people in this country who knew about the virus and knew that viruses can travel. This president and his administration had at least three months to prepare but they did nothing. The clueless president told one of his hate rallies in South Carolina that the virus was a Democratic hoax. Later he told people that they should go to work and go shopping.
In the time that he and his administration wasted we could have had enough testing kits to test everyone who needed one. We could have had more ventilators. But he didn’T do anything.
The president lied when he said that if someone needs a test they can get one. Not true. There are many people in this country with the symptoms of the virus who cannot get the test because there aren’t enough tests.
He lied when he said that the virus will end in April.
There is only one person in this administration to trust and that is Dr. Anthony Fauci who has often contradicted this clueless president who to my knowledge has not exhibited any sense of compassion or empathy for the people who have contracted the virus, who have died and whose lives have been turned upside down by the virus. However, he hasn’t lost his talent for lying and insulting people. He does have a gift for that.
