Earlier, we told you about tough-guy Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer sending a letter to Fox News brass telling them to “immediately cease the reckless amplification of the so-called ‘Great Replacement’ theory.” Schumer was also careful to cc: Tucker Carlson, who, despite being “almost irrelevant,” apparently was a huge influence on the Buffalo shooter (despite the fact that the Buffalo shooter said he hates Fox News and never mentioned Tucker Carlson in his manifesto).
Oliver Darcy (@oliverdarcy) ~ In a letter to Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch, Fox CEO Suzanne Scott, and Fox president Jay Wallace, Chuck Schumer says he urges Fox News to "immediately cease the reckless amplification of the so-called 'Great Replacement’ theory ..."
Well, fast-forward a few hours, and according to Schumer, Carlson invited him to be a guest on his Fox News show tonight to further discuss and debate the content of Schumer’s letter.
And, to his credit, Schumer is willing to put his money where his mouth is.
Just kidding! He’s chosen to take a stand against Carlson’s purported “Great Replacement Theory” advancement by bravely running away:
Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) ~ @TuckerCarlson invited me on his show tonight to debate the letter I sent to @FoxNews.
I'm declining. Tucker Carlson needs to stop promoting the racist, dangerous ‘Replacement Theory.’
If Tucker Carlson is promoting such egregiously racist narratives, then isn’t it incumbent upon Chuck Schumer to confront him about it? Isn’t it his moral imperative? Isn’t the best way to get Carlson to stop is to face him and explain why what he’s doing is racist and dangerous and wrong?
Or is Chuck Schumer just a partisan blowhard who goes looking for a fight knowing full well that he has no intention of ever following through?
Kate Hyde (@KateHydeNY) ~ I said publicly that I could beat up Floyd Mayweather. He called and challenged me to a fight. I’m declining. Floyd Mayweather needs to stop resorting to violence.
Karol Markowicz (@karol) ~ If you can't say it to a man's face, you can't say it.
Christian Conservative (@1689Winnipeger) ~ This man is afraid of defending his own public positions and he's the leader of the senate.
Chuckie is the "leader" of the U.S. Senate in name only.
Some leader. Have fun with him, Senate Dems. You deserve him.
GregGutfeld (@greggutfeld) ~ Coward.
Chuck Schumer is the worst kind of coward: he’s the kind of coward who pretends he’s not a coward.
