Tucker Carlson attacks Biden with same words found in 'manifesto' of accused El Paso mass shooter

Tucker Carlson is the face of Fox News. 3.3 million Americans tune in nightly to his top-rated show – the number one cable "news" show in the month of August – including among the key demographic advertisers love: viewers 25-54 years old, according to Forbes.

Wednesday night Carlson ramped up his white nationalist and white supremacist attacks on President Joe Biden, which is a regular theme on his Fox News show, "Tucker Carlson Tonight," using the same words that the white 21-year old suspected mass murderer in El Paso, Texas did in his "manifesto," right before he allegedly gunned down 23 innocent Americans in August of 2019. (He has pleaded not guilty. Two years later, his case has yet to go to trial.)

Carlson and the suspected shooter talked about the "great replacement," a conspiracy theory that claims white people are being "replaced" by people of color and minorities. (Remember the neo-Nazis marching in Charlotte, chanting, "you will not replace us"?)

And he talked about "eugenics," a grotesque term tied to the Nazis, as if it were a guiding principle of the Biden administration.

In "What is the Great Replacement?" The New York Times published this about the alleged El Paso mass murderer:

"Echoing the man accused of fatally shooting dozens of people at two mosques in New Zealand in March, the El Paso gunman's manifesto mentioned the 'great replacement,' a conspiracy theory that warns of white genocide."

Tucker Carlson's racist rhetoric reached fevered heights back in April, eliciting headlines like "Tucker Carlson's latest white supremacist tirade might be his most dangerous yet (MSNBC)," "White Supremacy Has Its Coming Out Party, and Tucker Carlson Is There," (Daily Beast), and an Associated Press report that reads: "The Anti-Defamation League has called for Fox News to fire prime-time opinion host Tucker Carlson because he defended a white-supremacist theory that says whites are being 'replaced' by people of color."

Fox News did not fire Tucker Carlson, and if anything it appears they support his white supremacist words.

Carlson this week has not disappointed his superiors, which include Fox Corporation board members Rupert Murdoch, Lachlan Murdoch, and Republican former U.S. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.

On Wednesday, Carlson told his millions of Fox News viewers that President Biden has intentionally orchestrated an "unrelenting stream of immigration," as Media Matters reported (video below).

"Promising the poorest people on the planet that they can have endless free taxpayer funded services if they show up and break your laws? That's not just stupid, it's suicidal," Carlson said.

"For generations, middle-class Americans have had access to the best healthcare in the world, but not anymore. That's over for good. Our system cannot handle this many destitute newcomers, period. Imagine what hospitals are going to look like a year from now. How about schools?"

In 2019 The Washington Post reported the El Paso mass shooting suspect's manifesto "mentioned a 'Hispanic invasion' of Texas and expressed worries that the United States was in the process of a 'cultural and ethnic replacement.' It cited fears that immigrants would swamp taxpayers with free health care and other benefits, take over jobs and intensify the strain on environmental resources."

"But why?" Carlson continued Wednesday. "Well, Joe Biden just said it, to change the racial mix of the country," he claimed, having quoted Biden from 2015, only seconds later twisting his words. "That's the reason, to reduce the political power of people whose ancestors lived here, and dramatically increase the proportion of Americans newly-arrived from the third world."

"And then Biden went further," Carlson continued, "he said that non-white DNA is the quote, 'the source of our strength.' Imagine saying that. This is the language of eugenics, it's horrifying. But there's a reason Biden said it."

Biden did not say "non-white DNA," as Carlson implied.

In 2015, Tucker Carlson's own far right wing website, Daily Caller (which he sold last year) reported on then-Vice President Biden's "introductory remarks at a three-day summit to address violent extremism:

"I'm proud of the American record on culture and economic integration of not only our Muslim communities but African communities, Asian communities, Hispanic communities," Biden said. "And the wave still continues. It's not going to stop. Nor should we want it to stop. As a matter of fact, it's one of the things I think we can be most proud of."

Embracing immigration was part of the theme of the summit — stated numerous times by Biden — that "inclusion counts."

…

"We are a melting pot," Biden said of the U.S. "It is the ultimate source of our strength. It is the source of who we are."

After falsely accusing Biden of using "the language of eugenics," Carlson Wednesday went on to say: "In political terms, this policy is called 'the great replacement,' the replacement of legacy Americans with more obedient people from far-away countries. They brag about it all the time, but if you dare to say it's happening they will scream at you with maximum hysteria."

The "great replacement" is not a "political term." It's a white supremacist conspiracy theory.
