Reports say that Tucker Carlson is livid with Matt Gaetz after he gave Gaetz the opportunity to clear his name and all he did was drag Tucker down with him. Matt needs all the friends that he can get right now, and so far it looks like everyone is abandoning him. But what he did to Tucker warrants further explanation, and even if there was nothing criminal about it, the dinner date shows how cozy Republicans are with their media mouthpieces. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Tucker Carlson, as we discussed yesterday was a little bit dumbfounded when Matt Gaetz, uh, basically roped him into this investigation, that Gaetz is now under, uh, when he made the comment like Tucker, you're going to remember, right? We were at dinner, you had your wife. I brought this young woman with me and you know, you'll remember her. And Tucker's like, actually I have no idea. Uh, I do not recall this woman in question at all. And then of course he comes back from break and says, that was one of the weirdest interviews I've ever done. But folks that wasn't it, because after that segment aired, after the dust settled, uh, according to staffers at Fox who pho spoke to CNN, Tucker was quote, off. Now that is the actual words they use. They use the term off at Matt Gates for doing that.
And honestly, can you blame him? And it's not just that either. It's when Matt Gaetz was also like, Hey, you know, I know you're no stranger to allegations like this and Tucker's just like, dude it, um, so Tucker's. And again, as much as I hate Tucker Carlson, he has a right to be right now. He extended an invitation to Matt Gates to come on his program and spew, whatever lies and propaganda nonsense that he wanted. You know, Tucker, wasn't going to question any of it. He was just going to let him roll. I mean, he even admitted that he said, look, you know, we barely read the story. We didn't really prepare any questions for Matt Gates have at it buddy. And Kate's is like, well, Tucker, remember when I, when you and me were at dinner and it just totally went downhill from there.
Uh, Matt Gates is running out of friends and he's running out of friends very quickly. Uh, Fox news has made it clear yesterday as well that they have not ever entertained the idea of hiring Matt Gaetz. And considering the fact that Tucker Carlson is their most popular host. And Matt Gaetz may have implicated him in this DOJ investigation. I have to imagine the higher ups at Fox news. Aren't exactly looking at Matt Gaetz with, uh, you know, any kind of future plans for the guy. And again, here's the thing though, when you're in Matt Gaetz, the situation right now, you've got to stay ahead of the PR curve, right? This is a public relations nightmare for him. And he has to be able to go out there in the public and try to muddy the waters and shift the conversation. And he has to do it with conservatives because those are the ones that if they turn on him, he is done.
And the best way to do that obviously is to go on Fox news. But it's going to be a lot harder to go on Fox news. When you're sitting there implicating their hosts in this investigation saying that maybe Tucker Carlson's sends a witness. Cause he saw you bring this young woman to a dinner. You ate with them, you laughed with them, you joked with them.
