Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer 83 percent of Chicago voters for rejecting a second term for Mayor Lori Lightfoot following four years of skyrocketing murders and other violence. They also wade into the divide on the right over what level of aid the U.S. ought to be providing to Ukraine and what impact Fox News host Tucker Carlson is having on the debate due to his intense criticism of Ukraine and NATO. Finally, they discuss a bill making its way through the House of Representatives that would ban TikTok on all devices in the U.S. TikTok is Chinese spyware and having it on any device is a horrible idea. But should the government or individual citizens make that decision.

I used to record the Tucker Carlson show and listen to it faithfully. Until I got disgusted with his credulous and irresponsible coverage of UFOs.
But his credulous and irresponsible coverage of the war in Ukraine is a far more serious matter.
Weak-minded, Tucker likes feeling like the head of a movement, even if it is a movement of idiots. (“Why should we care if this Hilter guy wants to take over Kretcho—, Kzetcho—, whatever the hell the name is!”)
