With eyebrows suspiciously furrowed, Tucker Carlson sat down tonight with NYU Professor of Russian Studies and contributor to The Nation, Stephen Cohen, to discuss the 35 page #FakeNews dossier which has gripped the nation with nightmares of golden showers and other perverted conduct which was to be used by Russia to keep Trump on a leash.
The left leaning Cohen, who holds a Ph.D. in government and Russian studies from Columbia, taught at Princeton for 30 years before moving to NYU. He has spent a lifetime deeply immersed in US-Russian relations, having been both a long standing friend of Mikhail Gorbachev and an advisor to President George H.W. Bush. His wife is also the editor of uber liberal "The Nation," so it's safe to assume he's not shilling for Trump - and Tucker was right to go in with eyebrows guarded against such a heavyweight.
Cohen, who has been quite vocal against the Russophobic witch hunt gripping the nation, believes that this falsified 35 page report is part of an "endgame" to mortally wound Trump before he even sets foot in the White House, by grasping at straws to paint him as a puppet of the Kremlin. The purpose of these overt attempts to cripple Trump, which have relied on ham-handed intelligence reports that, according to Cohen "even the New York Times referred to as lacking any evidence whatsoever," is to stop any kind of détente or cooperation with Russia.
Cohen believes that these dangerous accusations attempting to brand a US President as a puppet of a foreign government constitute a "grave American national security threat."
At the very end of the interview, Tucker's very un-furrowed eyebrows agreed.

The Democrat-Media Complex has gone all in on the propaganda campaign to convince Americans that Donald Trumps election is illegitimate because Russia hacked the election.
Even if a majority of voters reject the unconvincing case being made, Team Hillary and Team Obama both know that they must keep their own supporters engaged in outrage against the victorious party. Because they believe they are the only legitimate custodians of power in America, any Republican who wins must have gained victory through illegitimate means.
But they may have made a fatal overstep with the release of the top-secret report on Russian influence to NBC News.
It is a crime to share top-secret information with people who do not have the requisite security clearance. (Excerpt) Read more at americanthinker.com ...
It would be a shame if the supply semis stopped rolling into those 60 counties...
Why does the Democrat Party like protecting satanic child rapists - their own, and the Islamic ones?
I like hearing his insights on Batchelor's show but after 10 minutes I think he loves to hear himself talk and veers off into 5 different directions in the same sentence.
Also - I believe he is Katrina Van Den Heuvel's husband - you gotta be a a hard core commie to marry that bitch - although I will say she did look good in her younger days....
As near as I can gather, they're all a bunch of weirdo's.
As much as we should not trust the Russians. We also cannot allow them to be used as scape goats by the DNC and Clintons
No doubt they have the goods on both. They have that information, Snowden and probably much more. What can we trade them? Soros ;-)
Scratch off the cheap "tolerant and compassionate" veneer of these antediluvian types and you get raging haters, salivating to overthrow the US govt, to install a govt of their choosing.
The deluded inbred diversity types act like the safety and security of Americans is inconsequential. These issues didnt make the A-list of Things To Do To Make Us look Good In Our Own Eyes.
As one savvy Freeper noted: "civilized people cannot live side by side with liberals. To put it bluntly, liberals are demented and dangerous."
There is something so intrinsically troubling about the self-absorbed mindset of these people. Their concerns are limited by I, my, me, mine. They cant see past their own prejudices, needs and desires.
A truly fruity bunch. They are a ruinous gaggle of overpaid, entitled, smarmy, elitist, know-it-alls. Their entire world revolves around themselves.
They loll around munching on kale chips, contributing nothing to the culture, except intermittent reports about the number of brown people---foreign and domestic---cashing US govt paychecks.
There is something really sinister going on and I hesitate to guess what it is for fear of sounding paranoid. But, powerful people want war with Russia. They are insane.
I doubt if very many of us will lose much sleep when the Sanctuary cities/counties become complete hell holes with illegals flocking in. Then, the established gangs in those cities stake out their "country" and kill anyone who is not one of them. Black against brown, Asia against Black and Brown, South America Gangs versus all of the above.
Those of us living close to these sanctuary hell holes will exercise our 2nd Amendment rights to protect our families and our homes.
Dr. Stephen Cohen was a pro-Soviet USSR specialist during the 80s and 90s. He continues to defend Putin and sees a return to Soviet style government in Russia as a ‘good thing.’ About a month ago John Bachelor had Cohen on his radio program talking about Putin and it was the pro-Soviet Cohen I ‘knew’ from the past where he put the USSR in the most favorable light possible. Although I don’t actually know him in person, in my past life doing Soviet/Warsaw Pact intel for the Army, I was very familiar with his positions and writing. He sounds like he laments the passing of the hammer and sickle red flag.
Additionally, I think the entire ‘Russian’ connection with the ‘golden showers’ story is NOT Russian. Based upon the stories debunking the ‘dossier’ the source being anti-Trump inspired in this nation by either Hillary or, yes, Jeb. but NOT Russian. It doesn’t match the KGB MO.
Tank, comb & me were talking not too long ago about the impending Cloward-Pivening of the rats to THEMSELVES in/on those blue islands. I think we should hasten that: it’s what they planned for us.
I agree, and the Deep State is up to it’s eyeballs in complicity, and notice that once again we have a salacious story overshadowing what should be the real story:
Hillary Clinton’s crimes as revealed by WikiLeaks, Guccifer, DCLeaks, and most recently a quiet FBI dump showing she sent Emails to Blumenthal that contained confidential info, and he was hacked by China, Russia, and Israel.
Also being ignored is the 4Chan prank that duped Wilson, McCain, CNN, Buzzfeed, and the CIA, and was part of this 35 pages.
Back in the day I remember him as being pro Soviet.
Perhaps he's changed, I don't know. It got to the point where I wouldn't watch him.
Remember what Obama did for muslims?
That.
Thanks for the info. Do you happen to know if he was on the original or the recent version of this group?—his Wikipedia bio says “is a member of” it which makes me think they mean the current one; it’s relevant because I see a fellow traveler I’m familiar with on the original one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Committee_for_East-West_Accord
“...Hillary Clintons crimes as revealed by WikiLeaks, Guccifer, DCLeaks, and most recently a quiet FBI dump showing she sent Emails to Blumenthal that contained confidential info, and he was hacked by China, Russia, and Israel....”
