Musk shares video of pro-Russian Tucker Carlson blaming Ukraine for Kakhovka dam blast

Carlson, recently fired from Fox News, has now launched his show on Twitter. His first episode accused Ukraine of destroying the Kakhovka dam. Carlson argued Russia, occupying the east Dnipro bank, gained nothing as it would flood that very area.

Carlson's openly manipulative video ignores the benefits Russia's army and leadership gain from the attack.

He also remains silent on objective evidence of Russia's involvement, like Russian military mining of the hydroelectric station’s turbine hall.

Carlson also insulted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during his show on Twitter, saying the Ukrainian leader was “sweaty and rat-like”, “a persecutor of Christians”, and in bed with U.S. investment bankers,” UK newspaper the Independent reported.

The right-winger also questioned the official story about the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York, and claimed definitively that aliens are visiting Earth, the Independent said.

Musk significantly increased the video's reach by sharing it. Before the retweet, Carlson's video had 57 million views; Musk added another 29 million already.

The Twitter owner shared the host's video with the following comment: "Would be great to have shows from all parts of the political spectrum on this platform!"

Several politicians have reacted, including pro-Russian Republicans Matt Gaetz and Anna Paulina Luna, both from Florida, who also shared the video.
