On Tuesday, Sen. Chuck Schumer put forth an urgent call to action – that Fox News prevent Tucker Carlson from airing more revealing recordings related to the Jan 6 insurrection. With conviction and clarity in his voice, he asserted: “Our democracy depends on it.”
“These lies continue tonight. Rupert Murdoch, who was admitted they were lies, and said he regretted it has a special obligation to stop Tucker Carlson from going on tonight. Now that he’s seen how he has perverted and slimed the truth and from letting him go on again and again and again. Not because their views deserve such a proprium, but because our democracy depends on it,” he said.

Schumer doubled down on his tweet on Wednesday and stated:
“Speaker McCarthy has held the gavel for less than three months.”
“But by sharing the January 6th security footage with Fox News, he has already done more than any party leader in Congress to enable the spread of Donald Trump’s Big Lie.”
Charles Schumer was prompted by Elon Musk on Twitter with the query, “Do you want us to remove this video??,” in response to an unconfirmed glance at footage from January 6th that showed hundreds of nonviolent demonstrators entering Congress. This sparked a heated backlash. Contrary to common belief, is it feasible that Sen. Schumer may be seen as a danger to democracy?
