Tucker Carlson is confused — he said so much himself.
The Fox News host spent a recent segment of his show attacking out bisexual Oregon Governor Kate Brown. And while Carlson was predictably upset about Brown’s new statewide mask mandate to combat the spread of the Delta variant, he also spent time belittling Brown’s sexuality.
At the top of his broadcast, Carlson asked: “Why is [her sexuality] relevant?”
“Well, the media didn’t explain,” he continued. “They told us without exactly explaining what it meant, that this fact was historic and it was highly thrilling. Kate Brown’s sex life was shattering ceilings. Woo-hoo.”
How about we take this to the next level?

Then Carlson got to the real meat of his ‘argument,’ calling it both “weird” and “confusing” that Brown identifies as bisexual yet is married to…wait for it…a MAN.
“Actually Kate Brown was married to a man. Yes, he had a different last name, but he was still, as they say on TikTok, binary. He was a dude. That’s fine, of course, but it was also a little confusing. How does having a groom at her wedding make Kate Brown an official member of the LGBTQ community? No one bothered to ask,” Carlson said.
Putting aside the bizarre concession he made about Brown not taking her husband’s last name, did no one on Carlson’s staff think to pull him aside for a quick sidebar to explain the definition of bisexuality?
That job was deftly taken up by Brown herself via Twitter, who concisely informed Carlson: “That’s what bisexual means.”
.@TuckerCarlson, that's what bisexual means.
To every bisexual person out there struggling to explain to your friends and family who you are and who you love: you are not alone. Don't let the bullies stop you from being true to yourself. You might even be a governor someday. https://t.co/pUaqJICsld

She had more to say to the bisexual community, many of whom experience the same bullying.
“To every bisexual person out there struggling to explain to your friends and family who you are and who you love: you are not alone. Don’t let the bullies stop you from being true to yourself. You might even be a governor someday,” Brown encouraged.
Last week, Oregon hit its highest daily COVID-19 infection count since the beginning of the pandemic.

Tucker is an idiot

Tucker rhymes with sucker, *ucker, pucker, etc. This just proves it!

Racist fascist Tucker is as smart as a Swanson frozen food container–an empty one, that is!
BigJohnSF
I bet Tucker enjoys some hot girl-on-girl action every now and then.
Openminded
Am I the only one who finds it odd that a state openminded enough to elect a bisexual female to the Governor’s office is closed minded enough not to freely wear masks?

Oregon can be a bit confounding. Portland and its suburbs, as well as Eugene and the cities along the eastern corridor (Bend, Medford, etc.) constitute the overwhelming majority of Oregon’s population, I believe. Large swaths of it are very conservative, however, and parts of eastern Oregon want to secede and become part of Idaho. So I assume Gov. Kate Brown is trying to balance those competing interests, which probably include anti-mask, anti-vax voices in the liberal-progressive Portland metro area.

Washington and Oregon are very liberal in their big cities but on the eastern side of both states are very conservative and even more than a few white militias making them bi themselves

Just another example of why I don’t watch his show, but I’m glad someone is monitoring him.

Why would anyone watch anything on the entire network? If he is their best that speaks volumes about the other shows they offer.
I do enjoy when Queerty does articles on him though because of the photos they dig up! Queerty (or the gay media in general) always tends to find photos of him that look as though he was just told his penis size would not increase by using “mystery growth cream” that he purchased online. Ohhh it’s just delicious! Look at the photo they used for this article! Looks like he was asked to do long division!

TUCKER is confused by everything—it’s an innate condition of his. I’m amazed he has the wit to tie his bow tie. Annnd, he self owns at the drop of a hat…even that picture of him making that Beavis face at the top of the article—“Ship of Fools”—is poignant and ironic
Fname Optional Lname
LOL! You know damn well moma paid his cousin to take him to prom because the local kids were not having it!

He’s just another total loser RepubliC**T with ongoing ignorant statements.

I don’t know what it is with right-wingnuts, but they are absolutely fascinated with sex… The founder of the ‘Proud Boys’, Gavin McGinnis taped a live show where he stuffed a dildo up his behind… ‘To Own The Libs’?????? WOW!~ You can check it out by going to Google Images and typing in ‘Gavin McGinnis dildo’… Weird…
radiooutmike
Jeez, he must have practiced a lot.

Tucker Carlson is a complete idiot. I’ll admit I hate Fox News, but he is the very worst of it. You would think his family owns it or something, because he is so ridiculous and downright stupid in so many of his ideas and stances—- yet they keep the babbling idiot.
Fah tay pantz
Tucker is one of the stupidest people i have ever seen on a tv screen and that includes the casts of the bachelor and bachelorett, scary thing though is the number of Dunces who hang on his every word …. US you have a problem we need to sit down and have a talk.

Luckily there is hope for half of us who do not engage in the nonsense that is Fox news! We do try to help those who have lost their way but unfortunately they are so concerned with sending the mighty orange one money and how the government should not dare attempt to make them get an injection even though public / private schools and universities have required mandatory immunizations against ailments like polio, mumps, measles, diphtheria and rubella for decades now. Don’t know why it surprises us, they’re the one’s who also believed Trump would magically return to office during the month of August for some Q inspired reason.

Probably has a 1″ penis and loves didloes shoved up his butt…

Getting a dildoe shoved up your but is a Yale thing!

Remember that Fox News lawyers said during the defamation lawsuit that the content of Fox pundits should not be taken seriously because they are not news, but opinion commentary. What’s funny about this is he also mentioned that the viewers “know and understand this.” Of course they do.
