What timeline is this?

Presidential candidate and Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has been steadily rising in the polls, with many Americans drawn to the specificity of her plans as well as her tireless resolve.

It turns out she's even appealing to some in Fox News's rogues gallery of hosts, including the notorious Tucker Carlson.


Watch the entire segment below:

Carlson opened the segment by describing Warren's job creation plan, which stresses the importance of "economic patriotism." Carlson—without revealing that the plan was Senator Warren's—then asked viewers if they could find anything wrong with the plan to forge an “aggressive intervention on behalf of American workers.”

He continued:

“Was there a single word that seemed wrong to you? Probably not. Here’s the depressing part: Nobody you voted for said that or would ever say. Republicans in Congress can’t promise to protect American industry.”

Then came the clencher:

"The words you just heard are from—and brace yourself here—Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, it's true. Yesterday, Warren released what she’s calling her plan for economic patriotism. Amazingly, that’s pretty much exactly what it is: Economic patriotism.”

Carlson went on to say that Warren's proposals made "obvious sense." People were confused, considering Carlson has frequently used Native American slurs to describe Warren, as well as being in diametric opposition to social justice and public access, principles hailed by Senator Warren.

Carlson isn't the first Fox News personality to find himself agreeing with Warren. Fox personality Jesse Watters accidentally proposed a near-exact version of Warren's student loan policy on the air.

As for Warren, it's unlikely she'll find herself warming up to the network. The Senator was unequivocal in her reasoning for refusing to appear in a town hall by Fox News.

Warren recently tweeted in a lengthy thread:

"Fox News is a hate-for-profit racket that gives a megaphone to racists and conspiracists—it’s designed to turn us against each other, risking life and death consequences, to provide cover for the corruption that’s rotting our government and hollowing out our middle class."

This Senator may have just broken Fox News.

Trump Roasted After Sharing Quote Praising Him For Winning 'His First Nobel Prize'—And Yeah, Nope

President Donald Trump was widely mocked after he published a Truth Social post in which he quoted Energy Secretary Chris Wright, who claimed this year's Nobel Prize in physics is by an extension a win for the Trump administration.

The Nobel Foundation awarded this year's physics prize to John Clarke (UC Berkeley), Michel H. Devoret (Yale and UC Santa Barbara), and John M. Martinis (UC Santa Barbara and Qolab) for “the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunneling and energy quantization in an electric circuit."

CEO predicts society accepts robot death

In 2009, Waymo introduced its first fleet of driverless cars, sleek pods equipped with sensors, AI, and a “Sense, Solve, Go” system designed to navigate roads autonomously without human input. According to the company, its robotaxis now experience 91 percent fewer crashes and 91 percent fewer serious injuries than human drivers over the same distances.

But even as Waymo brags about its spotless stats, co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana is already bracing for the inevitable: the first fatality caused by one of its cars, and she thinks society will accept it.

Prince Harry Had The Perfect Response When Asked If He Can Do An American Accent—And It Was Actually Pretty Good

Americans are fascinated by hearing people from other countries "drop" their accents and emulate an American one.

For example, it's always interesting to see a British or Australian actor in a movie where they're portraying an American character, but while they might veil their natural accent, they sometimes emulate an American accent from a different part of the country than what would make sense for their character.

Democratic Senate Candidate Blasts Trump Administration With Reality Check Over Their Withholding Of SNAP Funding

If you ask pretty much any conservative, they will tell you that the government shutdown and all its blowback is entirely the Democrats' fault.

This includes the cancellation of SNAP benefits, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program previously known as "food stamps," beginning in November, which will cut off access to food to millions of people.
