Definitely not.

I don't have any updates that I can share on that.

But I know that there are a lot of efforts inside the Justice Department, the CIA, to try and depict him as some kind of almost like treasonous agent.

But if you look at what a journalist does, which you can think whatever you want about Tucker.

I mean, Tucker has been a journalist his whole life.

He's done nothing but work for media outlets and was paid for reporting and for punditry and analyzing.

I mean, that is what Tucker does at the end of the day.

Obviously, talking to foreign governments, including ones with whom your nation might go to war, is absolutely fundamental to the job.

You cannot reasonably inform people about a potential military conflict if you don't understand the perspective of the other side.

But

Tucker is a huge threat to the same people that I just described Charlie Kirk as being a threat to.

And, you know, if you don't believe that those people, A, have a lot of power and B, will wield it without limits in order to guard themselves against whatever perceived threats they think exist, then you just don't understand how they work.

And I, for that reason, I mean, it was always very credible to me what Tucker was saying.

And the more I've learned about it, the more credible I know it to be.

Yeah, you know, it's interesting.

I think it's a really important point.

I've seen this with whistleblowers before.

You know, one of the big the big leak that WikiLeaks got, one of the big ones was leaked by, as we now know, the army private Chelsea Manning, who was in Iraq and and discover all these files that showed all sorts of government lies and war crimes and send it to WikiLeaks.

And they they caught her and they put her into this prison.

And then they started really treating her abusively, you know, like way beyond the way a normal prisoner would would be treated.
