Fox News host Tucker Carlson declared Friday that President Joe Biden’s weakness led to a “humiliating defeat” in Ukraine and continues to harm the United States’ reputation around the globe; “You’re a joke.”

Carlson reminded viewers at the beginning of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” that he had aimed to provide a measured analysis of the ongoing invasion Thursday, calling it, “wrong to use the deaths of people on the ground as a partisan cudgel,” before tearing into Biden and his “allies in the media” for doing exactly that.

“War is horrifying, of course, but it’s also a grave and profound thing,” Carlson stated. “You have to stand back and offer a moment before you start drawing convenient conclusions for the suffering you see.”
