Tucker Carlson’s Conspiracy Theory Falls Apart In The Weirdest Way Possible

Fox News host   Tucker Carlson   told his viewers that he had some very important papers related to his conspiracy theory surrounding   Hunter Biden , son of Democratic presidential candidate   Joe Biden .

But the papers were lost ― and so Carlson concocted yet another conspiracy theory to explain their disappearance.

Carlson claimed a “source” gave the Fox News show “damning” documents about Biden on Monday. Carlson’s producer shipped the documents across the country via a “brand-name company,” but they never arrived.

Instead, the shipping company said the package had been opened and the documents were missing.

The shipping company launched a search and called in security to interview everyone who touched the documents, Carlson said.

“They went far and beyond, but they found nothing,” he said. “Those documents had vanished.”

He said the unnamed company’s executives are “baffled and deeply bothered by this, and so are we.”

Carlson did not explain why they shipped the only copy of “damning” documents.

Who doesn't make an electronic backup of any important document before shipping it? I mean - even if you're in the back country of Alaska - it takes literally five minutes with an i-phone.

I would never ship any important document I hadn't backed up. 

Equally as likely - whoever said they were shipping the documents to Carlson was full of shit and sent him an empty envelope.

Now UPS is claiming fault, they found the package open and empty - likely it was empty in the first place.

I wouldn't ship important documents unless I had a chain of custody.

And what is so hard about emailing documents across a secure line?

And who the hell doesn't make copies of copies of copies for important documents????

Hey wait up here a sec...

U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil's opinion , The "'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that [Carlson] is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.' "

He's an entertainer not a serious journalist. Shame, too, because I understand when he was the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette he was a pretty good reporter

Did Tucker's dog eat Hunter's emails? I cannot wait for the postmortem on this Fox Fiasco. You would think Fox knew better than to become pawns of Putin's Russian State Intelligence Services for Trump, again!256

Heads Should Roll At Fox and especially Tucker's...

Now UPS claims to have located the "contents" of the open package addressed to Tucker Carlson and will ensure he gets them post haste.

Should we consider the chain of custody somewhat tainted now?

Or could he actually be in a real Waggnal?

(Is that even possible? Could it be true-- but grammatically incorrect?)

Or is the opposite the real truth?

So he won't say what these supposed papers were..

Funny that he wouldn't send it first class through the USPS. Or even certified or tracked.

Also could do it old school and fax it.  Haha
