Tucker Carlson Supports Asking Questions About How the THIRD World Trade Center Tower Collapsed

March 14, 2023

"Anything you’re not allowed to ask questions about is something you should be asking more questions about.”

In case you missed it, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson cited the fall of World Trade Center 7 on September 11 th as a topic that people in the media aren’t allowed to ask questions about, advocating that they should.

Carlson made the comments as a guest last week on Redacted News, hosted by Clayton Morris.

“So, it’s not a matter of falling for crazy…

Rasmussen Poll Shows 60% of Americans Believe “Climate Change” is a Religion that Has Nothing to do with Climate

A significant majority of Americans see right through the climate change garbage. It’s not about the climate – it’s about power.

A recent poll by Rasmussen shows that 60% of Americans don’t believe that climate change is about climate.

A majority of voters agree with a Republican presidential candidate’s criticism of climate change as a “religion” that isn’t really about the climate at all.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 60% of…

Tucker Carlson: “Jan. 6 I Think Is Probably Second Only to the 2020 Election as the Biggest Scam in My Lifetime”

“So how can people who do care make a difference for these – and I’m just gonna say it – these political prisoners?” Carlson asked Goodwyn as his lawyer also appeared on the show.

Goodwyn replied by touting a website where people can support Jan. 6 defendants. He also said cops who responded to the riot were too violent.

“There was a lot of police violence that happened that day,” Goodwyn alleged. “And yeah, that needs to be investigated.”

“Jan. 6 I think is probably…

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?

We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
