Updated | Today former Fox News host Tucker Carlson finally made good on his threat to bring his new show to Twitter, and the results were underwhelming. Filming from what appears to be his neighbor’s woodshed, Carlson put out a ten minute monologue in which he denounced Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and defended Vladimir Putin.

Carlson, whose Tucker Carlson Tonight show was beloved by the Russian government, blamed the destruction of Ukraine’s Nova Kakhovka dam on — who else — the Ukrainians, insisting that Russian president Vladimir Putin would do no such thing.

“No one who’s paid to cover these things seem to entertain even the possibility it could’ve been Ukrainians who did it. No chance of that,” Carlson said. After sarcastically suggesting that Volodymyr Zelenskyy would be “too decent” to destroy the dam, Carlson referred to the Ukrainian president — who is Jewish — as “rat-like,” a “persecutor of Christians,” and “shifty.”

The rest of his show was spent on castigating the mainstream media for ignoring his pet conspiracy theories that “they” don’t want you to question.

“The media lie. They do,” he insisted. “But mostly they just ignore the stories that matter. What’s happened to the hundreds of billions of U.S. dollars we’ve sent to Ukraine? No clue. Who organized those BLM riots three years ago? No one’s gotten to the bottom of that. What exactly happened on 9/11? Well it’s still classified. How did Jeffrey Epstein make all that money? How did he die? How about JFK?”

It’s a script we’ve all heard from Carlson before, delivered in his usual, hackneyed just-asking-questions style. The only difference is that Carlson was clearly phoning it in, giving viewers 10 minutes of weak monologuing from a haphazardly constructed set. Watching Tucker on Twitter gave the impression that the ex-Fox News star didn’t really want to be there.

I guess that made two of us.
