In today’s Vatnik Soup REBREW, I’ll reintroduce an American political commentator and pro-Kremlin propagandist, Tucker Carlson (@TuckerCarlson). He’s best known for his promotion of crazy conspiracy theories and for his support of authoritarian regimes around the world. 1/24

All posts by FBI Director Kashyap Pramod "K$H" Patel are filled with comments about the Epstein files. I don't think this scandal is going away any time soon.

Two years ago today, a Hamas terrorist attack in Israel killed over 1,000 civilians. Russia has been a strong ally of the terrorist group, even negotiating with its leaders — read more here: https://t.co/15wzbE8mda
In today's #vatniksoup, I'm going to talk about Russia's involvement in the Middle East politics. Countries like Iran have been assisting Russia in their genocidal war in Ukraine, and the Kremlin has also meddled with various extremist groups in the region. 1/18

Accurate statistics on Russian casualties, very interesting read:
The Ukrainian project @hochuzhit_com has published a photo of a document with Russian losses over 8 months, from January to September 2025. According to it, total KIA numbers 86,744, roughly 10,843 per month, which is very close to our earlier estimates. Total losses are 281,550

Throughout his career, Tucker has shed skins like a snake, from bow-tied political pundit to far-right crusader to full-blown anti-American conspiracy theorist. Every reinvention serves one purpose: keeping himself rich, relevant and at the center of the outrage machine. 24/24

Tucker has even started praising Sharia Law and feudalism, and had Dave Cullum on saying America should have sided with Hitler. He also claims he was mauled by a demon and spreads rhetoric about “Antichrist’s Newest Manifestation” and how to avoid the “Mark of the Beast”. 23/24

Tucker referred to Bashar al-Assad, the mass-murdering former Syrian dictator, as “some ophthalmologist from London”, whitewashing his war crimes such as using chemical weapons against civilians, torturing political prisoners and bombing Palestinian refugees in Yarmouk. 22/24

… on plotting to silence him. Even his usual audience has started questioning his sanity and choices of guests. Jeffrey Sachs in particular has been a regular, and together they’ve been downplaying Assad’s mass murders while accusing Israel of “causing 53 million deaths”. 21/24

Of course nothing good could be expected from someone like that. A lot of what Tucker says also has an antisemitic undertone: using words like “rat-like” to describe Jewish Zelenskyy, comparing Charlie Kirk’s killing to the crucifixion of Jesus, blaming “hummus eaters”… 20/24

These narratives serve only one purpose: to weaken Western support for Ukraine, and Tucker’s coverage has actually mirrored Russian state media so closely that RT could air it unedited. Due to this, Tucker has become one of Moscow’s most useful Western mouthpieces. 19/24

Tucker has also interviewed the grandmaster of Russian red fascism and genocidal imperialism, Aleksandr Dugin. While still working for Fox, he questioned why Dugin’s books were not on Amazon—and later went on to interview the madman on his own show. 18/24 https://t.co/YFHxOM1KK5
In today’s Vatnik Soup REBREW, I’ll introduce a Russian ultra-nationalist propagandist and “philosopher”, Aleksandr Dugin. He’s best-known for his blueprint on Russia’s geopolitical strategy and for his genocidal rhetoric towards Ukrainians. 1/17

The accusation of Ukraine persecuting Christians allegedly originates from US-based lawyer, Robert Amsterdam receiving the story, and a big pile of money, from Russian oligarch/Orthodox priest Vadym Novynskyi. More here: 17/24 https://t.co/9V0vrvwPkh
In today's #vatniksoup, I'll talk about the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP) and how pro-Kremlin propagandists, oligarchs and lawyers are using its "persecution" as a tool to reduce support for Ukraine and its government. 1/20

He’s accused Ukraine of persecuting Christians, banning opposition parties & selling Western weapons to cartels — all baseless or distorted claims debunked by multiple investigations. 16/24 https://t.co/9pmLZIGLD8
In this first soup, we’ll examine religious persecution in Russia and Ukraine, how the KGB/FSB has used religion as a tool of espionage and propaganda, and how Russia is erasing Ukrainian culture by destroying the country’s churches. 2/22

For example, in the midst of the war in Ukraine, he said about Zelenskyy that “He is a dictator. He is a dangerous authoritarian who has used a hundred billion in U.S. tax dollars to erect a one-party police state in Ukraine”. He’s also called him “sweaty and rat-like”. 15/24

Possibly due to his love for a certain Russian dictator, Tucker’s been spreading the most unhinged & extreme anti-Ukraine narratives out there. Most of these narratives are of course bullshit — but that hasn’t stopped anti-Ukraine propagandists from rallying around them. 14/24

… pathological liar Douglas Macgregor, crooked lawyer paid by Russian oligarchs Robert Amsterdam, neo-Nazi Darryl Cooper, Kremlintarian Dave Smith, fellow conspiracy theorist and alleged rapist Russell Brand, Soviet Union fan Sergey Lavrov & pathetic manchild Andrew Tate. 13/24

In May 2024, Tucker launched a new weekly commentary podcast, The Tucker Carlson Show. It quickly became one of the most popular podcasts on Spotify in the US, and is today the #1 hotspot for anything conspiracy-theory-related. He’s hosted many vatniks, including… 12/24

During his trip to Russia, Tucker also produced some of the most overt & ridiculous pro-Russian propaganda, visiting the French supermarket chain Auchan & praising basic food products like bread. According to Carlson, “Moscow is so much nicer than any city in my country.” 11/24
