It’s so weird that when a white cop killed a black man, George Floyd, Tucker backed the cop.

And when a black cop killed a white woman, a Trump supporter, Tucker accuses the cop of ‘executing’ her.

Who Is Backing the Blue?

Police who defended the Capitol on January 6 are now left to fend for themselves.

“Back the Blue!” from Republicans has always been and continues to be pure bullshit. This just drives that point home.
