Jim Acosta's weekly monologue on his weekend shows are epic, but Saturday's really hit on all cylinders. I could hardly keep up with the zigs and zags, the uppercuts and the knockout blows. But let me try to highlight some of the best parts of the above clip, in order.
Opening with the new pro-Russia stance many in the GOP and right wing media are taking, repeating literal Kremlin talking points. Going back a few decades, Acosta points out Ronald Reagan's role in ending the Cold War and ending with Hawley and Tucker questing why the US is supporting Ukraine, stating that "Hawley appears to be aligning himself with a pro-Russia movement inside the GOP, led by former President Donald Trump and FOX's Kremlin comrade, Tucker Carlson." Then he ran a brutal and very short clip of Tucker saying: "Why is it disloyal to side with Russia but loyal to side with Ukraine? They're both foreign countries that don't care anything about the United States. Kind of strange."
VOMIT.
Then back to Tucker and a guest, literally ADMITTING he is a sexist pig for hating women in power. I am not joking. Here is the back and forth:
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Why are you pretending that Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams that they can save us? They can save this world. This is lunacy. Out of her role completely.
And I'm sorry if that paints me as a sexist pig, but it's what I believe.
