If past performance is any indication of future success, this new Lincoln Project initiative to get Fox News banned on U.S. military bases will lead to a new multi-year exclusive agreement, but it sure is adorable to watch them try:
So #BanFoxFromBases is trending.
Time for @DeptofDefense to take notice.

You see, Fox News is a Russian propaganda outfit. Or something:
Fox News has been piping Russian propaganda directly into the minds of U.S. soldiers as one of the default stations on our own military bases. We need to #BanFoxFromBases

It *is* a bad look:
The newest grift from the pedos at The Lincoln project is #BanFoxFromBases. Because that is what our nation is about. banning people from hearing ideas you disagree with. https://t.co/eQraFylO7G

And it’s not even true. Here’s what Tucker Carlson actually said at the start of the segment that has them so riled up:
Again for folks trying to claim Tucker is pro Putin
Exact quote from Tucker: "Vladimir Putin started this war. So, whatever the context of the decision that he made, he did it. He fired the first shots. He is to blame for what we are seeing tonight in Ukraine." https://t.co/6fx0J6jcIt

Maybe the military should ban our troops from having internet and email access, too? Maybe even listen in on calls soldiers and sailors make home? Where should this end?
The ilk coming out of FoxNews is far reaching.
Unfortunately, our military isn’t immune to the dangerous propaganda being spewed by Fox News from pro-Putin shilling to Jan 6th whitewashing & more extremist rhetoric. #BanFoxFromBaseshttps://t.co/s7iuETLjCG https://t.co/IfdLXQCh2Z
