A spokesperson for the Russian government clarified that it has rejected requests to interview Vladimir Putin from reputable media outlets

The Kremlin’s first public response to Tucker Carlson’s announcement that he’s landed an interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin was to fact-check the former Fox News host.

On Wednesday, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed that Carlson had indeed interviewed Putin, but took issue with Carlson’s claim that “not a single Western journalist has bothered” to interview Russia’s president throughout the nation’s war with Ukraine, which has raged for more than two years.

    I think he’s vying to up his VP cred. Would make him useful, but maybe less of an idiot. Immoral? Yes. Idiot… Not entirely.

    That’s why we gotta watch out for him. He gets VP and Trump dies? I think it could be worse than many imagine.

      I’m already on suicide watch if Trump is prez again. At that point you’d be foolish to hold on to hope. I don’t care if he picks Satan for his VP or even Satan’s boss MTG.
