          Stewart pretty much destroyed his career the first time. He went from being a pretty well-respected CNN talking head to a corporate shill with a primetime slot on FOX to now being a blatant autocratic toadie and billionaires lapdog on a failed social media network.

          As someone who saw the episode of Crossfire when it aired, it’s been an interesting fall.

              His bank account isn’t hurting but he’s basically fellating authoritarians while billionaires sit in the corner and watch at this point.

              The bad part is Tuckypoo was born rich. His dad was the U.S. ambassador to the Seychelles and his stepmom is Caroline Swanson (the same Swanson TV dinner people) and the niece of Senator William J. Fulbright. He went to a private boarding school in Switzerland, he didn’t need to sell his soul to eat and shelter his family or anything. He just did it out of greed and soulessness.

                  I don’t know the guy personally but he really doesn’t seem to have any redeeming qualities. He’s a vile propagandist who’ll say and do anything to push the agenda of his master. If Tucker had his way the history books would mention him on the same page as Goebbels.
