Carlson spent greater than 13 minutes attacking Jackson Lee with racial accusations that stopped simply in need of utilizing the n-word.
CARLSON: Racism, you see, is a nationwide safety menace. It is a nationwide safety menace. Actually, Sheila Jackson Lee? Inform us how racism is a nationwide safety menace. Communicate slowly. We have got loads of time, however in fact, she will not do this. She’s acquired no argument. She’s acquired no information. She would not actually have a honest perception in what she’s saying.

“So, what would qualify as a felony beneath this regulation? Properly, nearly all the pieces,” Carlson added. He means nearly all the pieces he espouses and for which the Murdochs pay him thousands and thousands yearly.
