Dunce Cap Award: Tabloid Carlson

With three stories dominating the headlines during the week, including the idiot blockade in Canada, and Russia's pending invasion of Ukraine, you'd think Fox Shmooze's Tabloid Carlson would have plenty to talk about on his Friday garbage hour.

Instead, he made the same mistake most right wingers tend to do these days. Pick a fight with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.


Carlson went on the air and tried to claim that AOC is a "privileged white lady", when it's pretty obvious she is a Latina. Of course, his low-information, intentionally ignorant viewer base will eat it up like chocolate.

Unsurprisingly, AOC fired back, and threw some subtle shade at Carlson, making reference to the Spanish word for a-hole, pendejo. If all Carlson wanted to do was what comes naturally, being a spineless jackass, he certainly accomplished that goal. You'd think he'd have taken the hint after AOC had previously spanked Texas Senator Ted Cruz on Twitter. You do not pick fights with Alex From The Block.

That said, you know what Tabloid gets for this foot-in-mouth stupidity.....


Appropriate, don't you think?

Right wingers don't realize that AOC comes prepared for confrontations. Much more than her opponents.she doesn't make off the cuff nonsense statements, but makes deliberate careful measured responses to opponents.

True dat. AOC is everything about New York that Donald Trump is not. She's a fighter. Trump only pretends to be one as part of his con.

Fox Shmooze better start posting disclaimers before Tabloid's show, before they lose him to libel suits and jail.
