TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): If the government can ban discussion of the drug they are making you take, what can't they do? And, by the way, it's worth wondering, why are they doing this now? Why are they expanding censorship of conversation about the pandemic as the pandemic recedes? The COVID vaccines have been around for more than seven months, pretty much everyone who wants one has had one. You can get the shot very easily, they're free. According to the administration, this vaccine works perfectly and that means that vaccinated people are protected from COVID, they're bulletproof, they can't get sick. That's why they took the vaccine in the first place.

So why is official Washington so angry at the people who won't get vaccinated? How precisely do they pose a threat? It makes you think, once you think about it, that maybe none of this is really about COVID. Maybe it's about social control.
