Tucker the f#cker just had a "DEA agent" admit to carrying weapon on the capitol grounds.

Is that world class stupid or what. But seriously he just copped to a felony live on TV.

He said he had to carry in case he witnessed an injustice. And he was only there to protect people. Then blamed his friend who he claimed to be an FBI informant for inviting him there.


Schoolyard grade logic is completely valid to them I kid you not the viewers swallow it all whole.

Watching so you don't have to-thank me later.

EDIT:
Not into but on Capitol grounds.

Here’s the segment:

I don’t have the stomach for it, but I would bet the OP is not accurate about “into the Capitol”.

So they are going with the Billy told me to do it defense. And the well known nation wide carry rule for officers not on duty(?).

Hope it fails as bad as I imagine.

I suppose his retainer was: I'll take a third of the book deal and movie rights.

If his lawyer is there I am stunned he or she allowed that factoid to be broadcast.

Just in DC carrying a handgun is at least a misdemeanor, if I am not mistaken.

on Capitol grounds or in the Capitol itself would be a a way to spend several unpleasant years.
