TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): The point of this is to suppress political dissent, to hobble an entire political party and to keep these people from ever participating in American politics again. And, by the way, the cost to each one of these individuals or to any person whose house the FBI showed up at is enormous. Ask anybody if the FBI showed up at their home with guns what that's like.

A state judge in New Mexico just removed an elected county commissioner from office, overturning the will of the voters. Why? Because he had dared to exercise his constitutional rights by participating in the election justice protest on January 6th. So, this is full-blown a political purge. This is not a talking point. It is not in any sense a conspiracy theory, it's completely real.
