National Review’s Rich Lowry Ruthlessly Mocks Tucker Carlson for ‘Out-Tuckering Himself’ With Fresh Hitler Apologia
Isaac SchorrAug 25th, 2025, 3:21 pm



National Review editor-in-chief Rich Lowry ruthlessly mocked Tucker Carlson for “out-Tuckering himself in a new column.

Under the provocative headline, “Should We Have Allied with Hitler?” and scornful subheadline, “‘Just asking questions’ makes its dumbest query yet,” Lowry took Carlson to task over his recent interview with Cornell Professor Dave Collum.

During Carlson’s conversation with Collum, the latter stated, ” I think the story we got about World War II was all wrong,” causing Carlson to reply, “I think that’s right.”

“One can make the argument we should have sided with Hitler and fought Stalin. Patton said that,” continued Collum. “And maybe there wouldn’t have been a Holocaust, right? You know, but Stalin was awful by any metric and we weren’t his ally. The story is that there were a few missing American soldiers at the end of World War II in Russian territory. 15 to 20,000 were missing. And we left them there. And then you read about Pearl Harbor. We all sort of know the Pearl Harbor story is not what we were told, but I dug into that and you find out the Pearl Harbor. We knew to the morning that Pearl Harbor was going to get attacked. Stalin was going to be attacked.”

Lowry was unmoved by both Collum’s argument and Carlson’s passive acceptance of it.

“Carlson agrees with Collum’s contention that we have gotten World War II all wrong, and he lodges no objection when a guest to whom he’s very deferential says that we arguably should have allied with Hitler’s Germany in World War II to fight Stalin. In this, Tucker is really out-Tuckering himself,” he observed. “He has gone from nodding along with a guest who maintained that Hitler was misunderstood and killed millions of people as a function of unfortunate circumstances, to giving a fawning interview to someone who muses that we, literally, should have sided with the Nazis.”

The longtime conservative commentator went on to dissect Collum’s argument before facetiously asking, “Who can resist the emotional satisfaction of believing that malevolent forces are at work everywhere and that we, through doggedness, brilliant insight, and great personal courage, are onto them?”

“According to Carlson and his esteemed guests, those forces have misled us about the Nazis, who weren’t as bad as we’ve been told and shouldn’t have been resisted so strenuously — or, at all — by the West,” he concluded. “This is ignorance and perversity masquerading as brave truth-telling.”

Human Trafficker Says It’s Inhumane To Be Trafficked To Another Country

U.S.·Aug 26, 2025 · BabylonBee.com



BALTIMORE, MD — As the public debate continued to rage over the Trump administration's immigration policies, one human trafficker asked for the government to reconsider deporting him on the grounds that it is inhumane to be trafficked to another country.

The attorney representing criminal illegal alien Kilmar Abrego Garcia said that his client was hoping for intervention to prevent yet another deportation, as the accused human trafficker felt that being transported to another country against his will was a violation of his human rights.

"You can't just force a person to go to another country," Abrego Garcia's lawyer said. "That goes against even the most basic levels of human decency. My client just isn't ok with living in a world where he can be handcuffed and taken away to live in some foreign nation. It's not right. No one should be subjected to that type of treatment."

In a brief statement to the media, Abrego Garcia said through an interpreter that he expected better. "I don't know how you can do this to a human being," he said. "I don't want to go to Uganda. Restraining me and transporting me to another country without my consent is illegal, and nobody should stand for it. I just wish someone would defend me and my right to not be forcibly trafficked to another country."

At publishing time, a GoFundMe had been set up to help Abrego Garcia pay for his legal battle to keep from being callously taken from his family and trafficked to the other side of the world
