Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) revealed on Tuesday he had been invited to appear on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” so the host can interview Schumer about the letter he sent to Fox News blaming Carlson for the mass shooting in Buffalo, New York.
Despite the self-proclaimed white supremacist shooter not naming Carlson as an inspiration and expressing his hatred for Fox News, Schumer wrote to the head bosses at Fox News and News Corp to tell them to censor Carlson.
.@TuckerCarlson invited me on his show tonight to debate the letter I sent to @FoxNews.
I'm declining. Tucker Carlson needs to stop promoting the racist, dangerous ‘Replacement Theory’.

Tucker Carlson and Fox News promote dangerous, racist, white supremacist lies and conspiracy theories.
That's cowardly.
Amplifying racist lies and propaganda is simply not debatable.
It should have no place in America.
