Have there been threats?

Have there been?

Yeah, of course there have been.

Are you kidding?

Aren't you used to that?

Like, you're outspoken on a lot of stuff, right?

Like, for many, many, many years, this can't be new to you.

Well, you're never going to hear me whine about threats ever to me because I got on this voluntarily.

I know what the, I mean, I got fired after 15 years, the highest rated show in American cable television.

And I got fired for my opinion.

So I, and I'm not whining at all.

I'm so grateful that I got fired.

I'm just saying you it's not like I didn't know what the price is.

I do know what the price is.

Charlie Kirk was murdered.

Yeah.

And he was not murdered for his opinions on transgenderism.

Obviously, he was, I believe, and most people who knew him well, as I did and was friends with him,

as I was, believe he was most likely murdered for his evolving views on Israel.

So I get it.

And a lot's at stake.

The world is at stake.

But from my perspective, I have a duty to say what I think is true.

I'm often wrong.

And I always say that because it's a fact.

I have been wrong a lot and I may be wrong now, but I am sincere.

I'm saying what I believe is true and I'm going to continue doing that no matter what.

Does it give you pause ever being so forthright with your opinions when it comes to your family?

Yeah, I mean, this is a conversation that, you know, we've been having internal.

I have a very large family internally in my family for, you know, more than a decade.

And, you know, obviously we've had, you know, small and in some, a few cases, very large, you know, problems because of this,

but, you know, we've made our peace with it, I think.

And I'm very close family.

So that's, I'm grateful for that above all things.

And I'm really, really grateful for it.

Close to all my children, all my extended family, very close.

So yeah, no, I mean, I'm not, I just want to be clear, I'm not complaining and I'm unlike the people who are calling me an anti-Semite or a racist or whatever.

I don't see myself as a victim.

I don't think victimhood is inherently virtuous i find

that whole way of communicating

and of covering up crimes disgusting i don't respect it at all i think it's feline

and um and really kind of beneath contempt oh you're you know someone will attack you

or threaten you literally up to threatening your life and as he's doing that claim that he's the victim of bias.

And, you know, I just reject that.

That's not the culture that I come from.

I think that's dishonorable.

That's not the American way to do things at all.

That's not the way I was raised.

I will never act like that.

And I look down on anyone else who does act like that.

In terms of a read from the American people off if they feel the same way as you do, and maybe some of the others that have have moved away from the Republican Party

and moved away from President Trump because of the war and these issues.

Do you think

that the midterms are going to be like the the first

chance for us to get a temperature read of how the American people are feeling towards Trump

and some of these issues that you're talking about?

Well, the poll numbers now tell a pretty clear story about it.

I would not support the Republican Party.

There's no chance I would support the Republican Party.

I'm not going to support the Democratic Party.

I don't know what I'm going to do.

But at this point, how could you support, how could I or any American voter support a political party that's not loyal to the United States

that puts the interests of a foreign country above those of its own citizens.

Like that's, you know, it's not possible to vote for people like that.

And I'm not going to.

And I think I voted Republican my entire life.

I worked at Fox News, CNN, MSNBC.

I've been a consistent defender for 35 years of the Republican Party.

I mean, very consistent defender, but there's no defending this because it's immoral.

And it's exactly the opposite of what a political party in a democracy is charged with doing, which is representing its own voters,

its own citizens, its own nation.

And they're not doing that.

So, no, I'm out.

And if I'm out, then I think a lot of other people are out.

Well, I mean, you know, Marjorie Taylor Greene, who I know that you're close with, is also out.

I was working at a not the CBC, another network, and I covered the 2016 campaign and we went all across the United States.

And by the end, when I was in New York City, I thought to myself, OK, Donald Trump is going to win.

I had an understanding at that point in time of what the MAGA movement was.

What is your definition today of what MAGA now means?

I never understood it.

I mean, I think there was a strong latent desire in the hearts of a lot of Americans to improve the country, make America great again.

So on a literal level, you know, people wanted that.

They still want it.

I still want it.

But it was imprecise by design design.

So the phrase America first, however, which has kind of been retired, you don't hear that very often, is precise.

Just put your own country first as you make decisions as a leader of your country.

And that's very obvious.

It's hard to imagine that any leader would use any other standard to make decisions.

Of course, just like a father makes decisions, what's best for my family?

A leader has to make decisions on the same basis, but they don't use that anymore because, of course they're making decisions on the basis of other criteria.

What's best for this company?

What's best for Israel?

What's best for our donors?

I mean, you know, that's, I just want to say again, that's unacceptable.

That's not just like they're off in the wrong direction.

Like that is unacceptable.

That's treasonous.

It's immoral.

100

It can't continue.

101

You can't have a government that calls itself democratic, a democratic republic in our case, that is representing interests outside the country.

102

Like, that's just insane.

103

When folks say, OK, well, all of this stuff, if you take this and what Tucker Carlson has been saying on this issue, it amounts to anti-Semitism.

104

You have said you're not anti-Semitic, that you oppose what the state of Israel is doing right now, and you have a problem where the U.S government stands.

105

I just wonder, though, if you feel any kind of responsibility in terms of how your audience takes this away, and if they interpret this as anti-Semitic and that perpetuates it.

106

I mean, I couldn't have been clearer.

107

I have been, almost every single time I address this, I say I'm a Christian.

108

I don't think, I think it is immoral.

109

It's against my religion to judge people on the basis of their blood, the story of the New Testament,

110

the gospel is the story of each individual's relationship with God, not a group, but an individual.

111

So that's the essence of my worldview and of my religious faith.

112

So yeah, I oppose antisemitism as I oppose all forms of racism.

113

But I don't really think the onus is on me to apologize for a crime I didn't commit.

114

The onus is on the policymakers and advocates

115

and members of the media in the United States who are

116

more loyal to a foreign country than they are to the country

117

that I live in and that my children were born and that my ancestors helped build.

118

And those are the betrayers.

119

And so it is the claim that it's racist or anti-Semitic or whatever, the lie, the slander is designed to change the conversation,

120

the guilt trajectory from the guilty to the innocent.

121

And I'm just, I'm over it.

122

I'm not intimidated in the slightest.

123

I'm not an anti-Semite.

124

I don't work for anybody.

125

I don't have any personal debt.

126

I'm not beholden to anybody on this earth.

127

And so I'm going to continue to say what I think is true.

128

And what I think the overwhelming majority of Americans know in their hearts is true, which is this is disgusting.

129

And it's just a classic, it's a classic maneuver where I get caught doing something rather than admit what I'm doing or apologize for it.

130

I attack you.

131

I have children.

132

I know how this works.

133

Kids do this, but I'm not fooled by it and I'm not afraid of it.

134

And I'm certainly not going to be intimidated into shutting up because of it ever.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
