“Perry is behind bars tonight, but the governor has instructed the pardons board to work on an expedited review. That’s required by law in Texas in order for a pardon to occur. But he is pardoning this man. That is obviously the right thing to do. George Soros can’t pay for people to put his political opponents in jail and then have a Republican governor ignore it. As he was driving for Uber. I mean, the least powerful person in our society attacked by one of the worst people in our society, who’s out there rioting.” – Tucker Carlson, speaking with Kyle Rittenhouse.
“Abbott’s pardon announcement came after he was goaded to do so by figures on the right – from Fox News host Tucker Carlson to the chairman of the Texas Republican Party to Kyle Rittenhouse,” writes @DeanObeidallahhttps://t.co/hTJi2aNw4O
