I agree with a lot of what you were saying. But the truth remains that people like the Owens & Carlson are in fact, pushing and promoting lies about Trump, America & Israel. You can't distinguish on many occasions their words from the words of the Iranian or Hamas PR team.
You might be correct. I was mostly just pointing out a logical fallacy.
I almost never listen to crazy Candace's show.
Depending on the guest, I'll listen to Tucker's podcast maybe once per week. I disagree with Tucker 85%-to-90% of the time. Tucker was a pro-Putin pro-Russia guy, and perhaps he still is. I never understood that. And it is true Tucker pushes numerous lies and insane conspiracy narratives. But when he has a good guest, Tucker can be interesting and intellectually thought provoking. Steve Bannon is another pro-Russia pro-Putin pro-Trump guy who is corrupt, dishonest, and evil to the core -- yet like Tucker, Bannon can be intellectually intelligent, well read, and interesting depending on the show's guest.
I can't say that about Ben Shapiro, Mark Levin, Dan Bongino, Glen Beck, Megyn Kelly, Sean Hannity, Jesse Waters, Megyn Kelly, Benny Johnson, Jack Posobiec, and many other mindnumbing rightwing partisan liars, daily outrage purveyors, and one-trick pony propagandists.
Regarding Iran, I hope we decide to exit soon. If we're not going to do a land war / boots on the ground / militarily-forced regime change / nation-building project, then there is no point in staying in the vicinity much longer, afaik. We have thumped the mullah - IRG regime hard. Much, much harder, more punitively, and more severely than they ever thought the "be nice and kind to everyone" post-WW2 U.S.A. would ever proactively and preemptively do. If this experience doesn't cause the regime to change their thinking and Iran's direction, nothing will.
