I am 88 yrs old and have been a political junkie for at least 70 of them I can't remember a time when the Republican party has sunk to the low that they are in now. It's becoming crystal clear that they realize that their only chance to win anything is to tell lies and to put up as many obstacles as the can to block the voters that they fear. Tucker Carlson is a disgrace and FOX is certainly not a "NEWS" station if they allow it to go on. ALL of us are immigrants if we actually look at our parentage ... and we should be proud of the diversity.
I’m really grateful you covered this on the Beat. It needs to be talked about more. I feel we are in the heat of things now. It frightens me to be honest. Thank you Ari. ✌️
Great reporting. Some scary stuff is happening. I am so thankful that my parents were openminded and that we discussed many issues over the dinner table. Racism and anti-semitism were perhaps the most important things we talked about. My husband and I have continued this tradition with our children and now our grandchild. I am so thankful for your reporting. You are a must see at our house.
Hi Ari, Thank you for covering issues such as this and so many others. I follow you from Queensland, Australia. I studied American foreign policy when I first went to university in the 1970s and have been interested in U.S politics ever since. Your show enabled me to get through the Trump era even at this great distance! I couldn't imagine living there and having to experience it and the aftermath first hand. The Australian political system is not perfect but there is a reasonable amount of separation of powers between the judiciary, parliament and the executive. However, so much of what occurs in the U.S. influences what subsequently spreads and trends in Australian politics such as the current lurch to the right and rise of racist 'theories'; even the jargon of the Trump era pervades our everyday speech. Although the problems of racism and the right are not new here, they have been imbued with renewed 'legitimacy' courtesy of the Trump era. I really appreciate your work, research and commentary - thanks.
Hi Ari! Thank you for this article, and it is so sad to me that so many people or being brain washed with this crap. Instead of the United States of America, we have now become the Divided States of America.Have a good night handsome!
I just read a comment suggesting you scale back on hip hop and rap, and I have to say, NEVER do that! It’s refreshing, contemporary, instructive, fun, and adventurous. Who doesn’t need those things in their life??
Your segment on Replacement Theory was amazing. How I wish the Fox viewers were given the same reporting integrity as The Beat. But that would hurt their long term plans. They gaslight their "base" to believe all the lies. Of course this only enrages them more, and they continue to spread the untruthful comments as fact. Thanks Ari!!!🙏
This reconstitution of an old racist diatribe is getting old, but more so sad and upsetting. I truly wish we all could live in each others skin (walk a mile in my shoes). Hate is a powerful emotion so I am not sure if even that would help. People, like Tucker, are playing with matches trying to start a fire they themselves will run from or cower behind the idiots they are stirring up. It is so easy for people to say they are not racists, however in my life time I have seen that ugly word rear it's head when their son or daughter decides to marry a person of color. That is when you see what is hidden deep within their souls.
I can not change the color of my skin but that is all some people see of me. I am more than my skin color. My ancestors didn't ask to come hear but the white man brought them and now they fear us? Its a comical twist that some white folks act like they are being relegated to second or third class citizens. That their privileged lifestyles are being stripped from them, even those that are in poverty themselves exude this same attitude.
I can't make you like me and I really don't care if you do, but don't blame your fear on me just living my life, getting my education, having my nice job, and attaining my successes in this world. Your fear is not caused by people of color, your fear is caused by greed, ignorance, and entitlement. Love your fellow humans hatred will destroy us all.
Thanks for this piece Ari and shining a light on the dark souls like Tucker!! Peace be with everyone.☮💖✌🏽🙏🏽 Stay safe stay well.🦋
Tucker Carlson is Donald Trumps social media platform. It’s frightening this is allowed and what is ever more frightening is the believers. We are an unstable and very fragile country slowly fracturing at the seams
I'm surprised that the anti-defamation league hasn't become more pro-active in this development. The vast majority of the public isn't sophisticated or versed enough in the history of anti-semitism and racism. Carlson and his minions are carefully structuring a racist platform that is cloaked in some perverted patriotism and tribalism.
I was shaken to the core after seeing your segment on Replacement Theory. So much so that I made decision to bring it up at dinner with friends, thinking it would help me process what is happening in this country. I was blindsided by the reaction of an intelligent, thoughtful, sensitive friend who has lived all over the world and was landing more on the side of Tucker Carlson. We all debated with him, it got heated, voices got louder, windows had to close. We hugged at the end of the night. I sent him a copy of Jarrett Adam's book (slightly off topic but a way in to further discuss). He is an attorney, and I was looking for any way in. Today he thanked me and is looking forward to the next discussion.
I guess this is one teeny way to address our worrisome civilization, one person at a time?

Great article Ari. I'm 74 yrs young and live in Ga. Heard these words many times growing up sadly.

I can't thank you enough for all you do.
A. I think of a world wherein the weatherman is constantly scaring the viewers about the changes that come day after day. That would suck.
Then I think of myself in that world, thinking of a world where the weatherman wasn't so scary. That would not suck.
Thank God for Ari......:) ( No sucking )
Fox? ( WTF )
Tucker needs to be replaced. Thank you for your hard work & keep up your hip hop it’s your style!👏👏
