If the Tucker interview helps Congress block further weapons shipments to Ukraine and forces a peace process, is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Curious for the vibe check on FC.

It wasn’t a hard hitting interview, but it was interesting hearing Putin discuss things like scuppered peace talks and the Nordstream pipeline debacle.

I think anything that slows the perpetual war machine can only be helpful for humanity

It somehow felt to me like Tucker *thought* he was satisfying his responsibility to be hard hitting and ask the tough questions, and didn't realize that the actual bar is like 100x higher than what he was doing.

Felt like he was trying hard not to piss him off, which undermined his ability to ask difficult questions. There was some push back when it came to Evan Gershkovich, but he should have been asking about alleged war crimes.

I guess it’s a fine line between respecting your guest and not getting poisoned at the airport

Some of the questions were eye opening and good for the US population to see. Who blew up the Nordstream pipeline? Is peace an option? Does he have an expansionist agenda?

I do think the US and NATO have a lot to answer for. I’d prefer to see a live debate between heads of state, but that will never happen

Then the question becomes, why do the interview? Are you doing anyone a service interviewing him at that point, or is it journalistic malpractice?
