I'm only here to report the news.

Here's the context:

Tucker Carlson interviewed vocal white supremacist Nick Fuentes last week, which raised plenty of eyebrows. There was a rumor that began circulating that the Heritage Foundation (of Project 2025 fame), where Carlson got his start, had condemned him because of said interview.

This video was made in response to say that the Heritage Foundation respects Carlson's right to free speech and that it would not target or "cancel" one of its own.

We will always defend truth, we will always defend America, and we will always defend our friends against the slander of bad actors who serve someone else's agenda -- that includes Tucker Carlson, who remains and, as I have said before, always will be a close friend of the Heritage Foundation.

The venomous coalition attacking him are sowing division. Their attempt to cancel him will fail.

People's responses ranged from this:

To this:

To ... this.

I'll let you all have a (hopefully civil) conversation in the comment section about how we respond to friends and allies who "platform" unsavory characters, the nature of bad company spoiling good character (1 Corinthians 15:33), the value and importance of friendship and unity in Christ (Ephesians 4:3), and how our cultural biases influence how and when we break fellowship.

Or, as Thomas Jefferson put it, when does it become "necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another"?
