Deep dives
Tucker Carlson's strategy to drive a wedge between Russia and China
Tucker Carlson and his right-wing allies in the Republican Party, including Donald Trump, have been trying to drive a wedge between Russia and China. Their goal is to align with Russia against China, as they see China as the main threat to the United States. Tucker Carlson has been promoting war propaganda against China and advocating for an alliance with Russia to counter China's influence. However, Vladimir Putin recognizes Tucker Carlson's ulterior motives and pushes back against his anti-China rhetoric in an interview.
The US strategy of isolating China through alliance-building
The US strategy, supported by Tucker Carlson and the Trumpist faction of the Republican Party, aims to isolate China and prevent its alliance with Russia. They view China as a threat to so-called Western civilization due to its socialist, atheist, and non-white nature. Tucker Carlson and his allies advocate for aligning with Russia against China, similar to the Kissingerian triangular diplomacy of the past. However, their divisive tactics have failed to divide Russia and China, prompting the US to focus on dividing India and China instead.
Tucker Carlson's propaganda and warmongering against China
Tucker Carlson, a close ally of Donald Trump and a political operative, spreads war propaganda against China through his media platform. He falsely accuses China of fueling an invasion of America and conducting imperialism in Latin America. This warmongering serves to justify the US's hawkish anti-China policies, which could potentially escalate into a full-scale war. Tucker and his Republican allies seek to rally public support for war on China, as they perceive it as a threat to US global dominance.
Russian President Vladimir Putin condemned the "boogeyman" anti-China propaganda that Trump ally Tucker Carlson spewed in his interview in Moscow, while also mocking Tucker for applying to join the CIA. Ben Norton documents the former Fox News host's long history of pushing for war on China.
