Tucker Carlson Claims It's 'Probably Illegal' For Biden To Consider Only Black Women For His VP

Tucker Carlson Claims It's 'Probably Illegal' For Biden To Consider Only Black Women For His VP

America's most visible racist to lose Dancing with the Stars, Tucker Carlson, reminded the millions of viewers Monday night on his primetime Fox News show that he doesn't have a law degree.

Carlson was adding his voice to the growing speculation of whom Democratic nominee Joe Biden will select as his running mate to face off with him against President Donald Trump in November.


Biden, whose announcement is expected this week, has pledged to choose a woman as his running mate. Amidst expanded national outcry against the brutalization of Black people by police, many Democrats are encouraging Biden to pick one of the many Black women lawmakers fit for the job. Among the possible candidates are Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA), Congresswoman Karen Bass (D-CA), and Congresswoman Val Demings (D-FL).

That didn't sit well with the Fox News host and heir to a frozen chicken fortune.

Watch below.

Carlson said:

"For what could very well be the most important job on Earth, Biden has decided to hire exclusively on the basis of qualities that are both immutable and completely irrelevant—race and gender, and that's it. But wait a second, you ask, isn't that insulting? Isn't it wrong? Isn't it probably illegal? Yes, it is all three of those things."

Being a political candidate is not, in itself, an hourly or salaried job.

It is not, in fact, illegal.




People immediately began roasting Carlson.





Carlson was recently forced to fire his head writer, who was found to be anonymously posting virulently racist and sexist ideations online.

CNN Asked A Kid Why He Was At The Artemis II Launch—And His Hilarious Response Is Everything

As crowds gathered for the Artemis II launch on Wednesday, one young attendee managed to steal the spotlight from the rocket itself with a response no one saw coming. The boy was at Kennedy Space Center in Florida with a GoPro strapped to his black NASA cap, having traveled to witness the first human-crewed mission to the Moon in more than 50 years.

As he waited, a CNN reporter approached him with a question whose answer usually involves some variation of “inspiration,” “history,” or “science.”
