Former Daily Caller Employee Shares DAMNING Story of Finding Emails Tucker Carlson Sent Hunter Biden

Investigative reporter Chuck Ross just dropped a behind-the-scenes story from the early days of the Hunter Biden laptop saga that puts Tucker Carlson in a rather uncomfortable light.

Ok, to be honest, Tucker has done a very good job all on his own of putting himself in a rather uncomfortable light, but we digress.

Back when the media was still insisting the laptop was Russian disinformation, Daily Caller staffers (at the outlet Tucker co-founded) uncovered emails showing Carlson had personally asked Hunter for a college recommendation letter for his own son. They thought asking Tucker to simply confirm the emails’ authenticity would help torpedo the “fake” narrative — and assumed he’d be eager to help.

Instead, according to Ross, Tucker reacted with fury and shut the idea down cold.

Take a gander:

Funny story: In 2020, after the Hunter laptop came out, journos at Daily Caller, the site Tucker Carlosn-founded site where I worked, came across emails that showed Tucker asking Hunter Biden to write a letter of recommendation for his son to get into Georgetown.

Post continues:

... reporters thought this would be a great way to refute Bidenworld's claims at that time that the laptop emails were fake or illegitimate.
Someone who emailed with Hunter could verify their authenticity! We thought Tucker would be more than happy to help, and no ill will was intended.
But no. Tucker lashed out at the Daily Caller employee who was tasked with contacting him about this, saying that a story on that would be an "attack on my family," or something along those lines.
