“I think the most disturbing moment a year and a half later, looking back, is when Lindsey Graham turned to the Capitol police and said, ‘You have guns. “Use them,” said Carlson. The Washington Post reported last October that Graham was angry when he and other senators had to be transported by wire to the Hart Senate building as Trump supporters roamed the halls. “What are you doing? Take back the Senate! You have guns. Use them,” he shouted to the Senate sergeant. “We are giving you guns for a reason.” Carlson, who had already reported how a Capitol officer shot and killed troublemaker Ashli ​​Babbitt – who “posed no threat to anyone,” claimed – returned to the subject. “They had just shot to death an unarmed veteran. It was about 5 feet high. “And I guess what bothers me the most is that no one cared,” Carlson told guest Tulsi Gabbard. Fox’s host then falsely claimed that Babbitt’s death had not been investigated. “The police are taking his life. is often justified. We defended it on this show. “But not investigating or explaining it means that the life that was taken away was not worth anything,” Carlson said. “And this is the message they are sending: that this woman’s life meant nothing. We just killed her and threw her away. “How can members of Congress sit there and allow it?” In fact, Lt. Michael Byrd was acquitted by U.S. Capitol police, with its Home Affairs Unit finding that “his conduct was lawful and within State Department policy.” Byrd’s identity has been kept anonymous for months due to death threats he received for his actions. Carlson’s show did not specifically include advertisements, but rather a steady stream of guests who came to discredit the work of the January 6 committee, just as Carlson himself usually did. Fox News did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding this change in normal programming. The network had said on Monday that the Fox News Channel would not broadcast the auditions on primetime and would only cover them “as required by the news”. During Carlson’s broadcast, a live stream of the auditorium did not appear to show videos of the Jan. 6 violence played by the panel. Meanwhile, viewers of Fox’s uninterrupted program said, through chyron, to “stay with Tucker for the truth on January 6.”
