Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tore into Tucker Carlson for calling him a “dictator,” accusing him of repeating Vladimir Putin’s propaganda.

In an interview with Piers Morgan, Zelensky dismissed claims of suppressing opposition and defended Ukraine’s paused elections as necessary under martial law.

Criticizing Carlson’s pro-Kremlin rhetoric, he fumed, “It seems to me he needs to more deeply understand what’s happening in Ukraine, to stop working for Putin, to stop licking his ass.”

Zelensky insisted Ukraine is fighting to preserve democracy, not undermine it.

    He was a comedian before he became president. One of his bits was playing the piano with his dick. My hope is that after the catastrophic collapse of Russia and the complete withdrawal of the Russian Army from Ukraine, he’ll perform this for the UN security council.

      Oooohh that was way more obvious in hindsight, don’t know how I didn’t register that it’s a piano. I knew he was a comedian, I just really couldn’t tell what the bit was supposed to be.
