He appears on Piers Morgan's TV show to JAQ off.

He says numerous things that sound as though he is not really very familiar with 9/11 conspiracy theories, warming over old tosh, such as the idea that 9/11 was "never investigated" assuming that the 9/11 Commission report was the investigation as opposed to the FBI and CIA investigations.

He says that there has been no investigation of Building 7's collapse, ignoring the entire NIST investigation and report, claims he has no idea what happened to it and there is no reason why he should have any answers, but did you know that "explosives experts" found explosives in the rubble, and did you know some structural engineers have raised questions, etc....?

Probably sit this one out if you have high blood pressure....

 
It's a shame he decided to go down the rabbit hole of WTC7, "explosive residue" and "insider trading" bunk, because it seems the main focus of his documentary is asking the CIA and other foreign intel services why they have continued to cover up the information they knew about the hijacker activities leading up to the attacks.

His short intro included an interview with Mark Rossini, who is one of the big names pushing for the CIA to finally release the information pertaining to their activities leading up to 9/11.

I'm by no means a Tucker fan, but I am interesting what information is contained within this.

Whenever an influencer does something like this it's a sign that they are losing attention.
Tucker is trying to establish himself as the OG in a Post-Trump world, the person the next Right Wing Autocrat will need on his side.

It's rather pathetic, actually .
 
There are a couple of Republicans who are getting a little Truthy; Ron Johnson of Wisconsin is involved in a Richard Gage event this weekend. 9-11 Troof would have been much more virulent if Al Gore had been president that day. Conservatives are prone to believe elaborate conspiracies involving the government, while liberals tend to buy into CTs involving large corporations. I think that's why the liberal contingent of the Troofers had grey ponytails; they were the old paranoid left from "the CIA killed Kennedy, because he would have ended the war in Vietnam, man" days.
 
YouTube sent me a video clip of Senator Ron Johnson on Tucker Carlson's show a few months ago, in which the two of them were talking about the 9/11 attacks like teenage boys who had just discovered girls. Carlson isn't actually new to the topic, though he is trying to act like he is. Twenty years ago, Tucker Carlson was a harsh opponent (a so-so critic) of 9/11 Truthers. He knows very well what all the talking points are. I don't know why he decided to go this route. My initial impression is he was trying to create a friendly environment for his guest, Senator Johnson, but now it turns out that his approach is much broader than that. He definitely has an anti-government and anti-authority stance on 9/11, completely the opposite of his earlier position but without any acknowledgement of his earlier position. Some explanations that have crossed my mind:

1) Tucker Carlson is trying to race to the head of the Republican parade by championing a popular cause, though he doesn't believe in that cause.
2) Tucker Carlson is trying to get on or remain in good terms with the Trump Administration by setting aside his own opinions.
3) Tucker Carlson is trying to appeal to the anti-Israel or pro-Nazi faction.

Tucker Carlson lining up alongside Candace Owens on general extremist positions, but I think that Owens sincerely believes what she is saying, whereas Carlson is masking his own opinions to fit in. I find the whole thing disturbing. I used to like these people. Now, I'm furious with them. I'm furious with whatever forces in the world led these two to go down this path.

The grift. Carlson's griftiness always lead him to certain conspiracy theories. Now he's grifting other ones because other conspiracy theories are what his intended audience are currently Jonesing.
