      1/ Here’s the interview that @TuckerCarlson and Fox News didn’t want you to see. I chose to release it, because I think we should keep talking about the corrupting influence of money in politics. It also shows how angry elites can get if you do that.https://twitter.com/i/status/1098282209834950657 …

      2/ I stand behind what I said, but there’s one thing I should have done better. When Carlson asked me how he’s being influenced by Big Business and tax-avoiding billionaires, I should have quoted Noam Chomsky.

      3/ Years ago, when he was asked a similar question, Chomsky replied: ‘I’m sure you believe everything you’re saying. But what I’m saying is that if you believe something different, you wouldn’t be sitting where you’re sitting.’

          Exactly. I was a bit peeved when Bill Nye went on Tucker’s show and didn’t seem to know how to respond. There’s honest debate and then there’s monied interest in denial. Engaging a businessman with profit to be had in denial is a diff game then discussing scientific results.
