Previously, Carlson said he had planned to sit-down with the Russia president while at Fox News but then called it off claiming the U.S. government was monitoring him.

“I tried to interview Vladimir Putin, and the U.S. government stopped me,” Carlson told the Swiss publication, Die Weltwoche back in September. “By the way, nobody defended me. I don’t think there was anybody in the news media who said, ‘Wait a second. I may not like this guy, but he has a right to interview anyone he wants, and we have a right to hear what Putin says.'”

    Really makes you wonder what money is getting passed around on the back end to make these sniveling traitors kiss the ring of America’s biggest enemy since WWII.

        What’s " komrompat"? Did you mean “kompromat”, short for “compromising materials”?

          No, just got the first two syllables out of order. “Rom Com” Pat, a genre-specific movie critic who moonlights as an assassin for SMERSH.

        Did Russia finally realize you can just buy these assholes for a trifling amount of money?

        It’s only like 50k or 100k each in Lobby bribes and these fuckers will vote (or not vote) how you want.

        Given like 20 million, you’ve basically bought half of the US government for a few years.
