Thirty years ago, the world was a much different place and journalists used to be brave. Back then, Tucker Carlson built an impressive career writing for some of the biggest names in American journalism. But now, it would take a miracle for any of these politicized papers to feature his work again. The acclaimed Fox News host joins Glenn to discuss just how much has changed — as he's documented in his new book, "The Long Slide: Thirty Years in American Journalism." Tucker sets the record straight on his true opinions about the latest topics the corporate media is trying to skewer him with: Afghanistan, Hungary, fascism, and more. And he and Glenn break down how our leaders' newfound love for conformity has played out in the COVID-19 era as the government has fueled division and, Tucker believes, even spied on people like him who don't fear being bullied for disagreeing.

Glenn was recently invited to Mar-a-Lago to give a speech in front of Donald Trump at a PragerU event. But he admits he wasn't really thinking when he decided to bring 2 weird weapons to use as props: William Wallace's sword from "Braveheart" and a World War II-era rat with a bomb in its butt. Glenn tells the hilariously true story of how he got the items past Secret Service and, in the process, became a Secret Service legend that agents may talk about for generations.
EVIDENCE China MIGHT Take Taiwan Before Trump's Inauguration
We are entering a "wildly dangerous" time, Glenn warns. China's economy is collapsing, social unrest is on the rise, and the government appears to be reverting to Mao-era practices. So, will the Chinese Communist Party attack Taiwan to boost its national morale while America is still weak? This could be China's last chance before 4 more years of Trump or even 8-12 more years of America First policies. So, will the world look very different by New Year's day or, at the latest, January 20th? And how would America respond? Would we destroy Taiwan's superchip factories before China can take them? Glenn and Stu give their thoughts ...
