The most important voice on the right just left the biggest media company on the right.
Whatever @TuckerCarlson does next, he'll succeed.
If that something is running for president, the entire game just changed.

Most conservatives I know stopped watching Fox News besides @TuckerCarlson after the 2020 election bullshit and them turning on Trump.
But now Tucker is also gone.
The globalist Murdochs have ruined FOX!

Wow. Disastrous moment for Fox News. Tucker was by far the most important and relevant figure at the network, and in all of cable news. https://t.co/Do3cbHwGYh
