Tucker Carlson's son, Buckley Carlson, will join J.D. Vance's vice presidential staff as a deputy press secretary. Tucker, a far-right media personality and ally to Donald Trump, has long been a controversial figure in conservative politics
I’m sure it is just a coincidence that 27 year old Buckley is Tucker’s son. I am certain he got to the White House based on his long and successful career.
The former Fox News personality’s only son has worked on Capitol Hill since 2019 — as a staff assistant, communications director, and deputy chief of staff to Indiana Republican Jim Banks.
It’s not nothing, but I doubt he held these jobs due to experience, given that this was ages 22-28.
He’s a household name around here! I can’t go to the supermarket without hearing someone prattling on about Buckley’s latest achievements. I mean i get it, the dude is an overachiever and a household name already–but can we please stop pretending he’s the second coming? Yes, i subscribe to his weekly newsletters, yes i host a podcast about his ascent to greatness, yes i have been banned from his fanclub on Facebook (they’ll never show him the love that I can), but please for fucks sake can we just talk about anybody else for like 2 minutes please?!?

Nepo baby for sure
Ugh. Jim Banks is such a piece of shit. That doesn’t surprise me at all.
