NFL Legend Brett Favre Stands With Tucker, Calls for Fox News Boycott

By Dr. Derek Ellerman

Ever since President Donald Trump fatefully descended the escalator at Trump Tower on June 16, 2015, the world has grow to be a spot of seemingly limitless risk.

This story I’m about to relay to you is in that vein. You see, simply 48 or 72 hours in the past, it was universally believed that it was not possible for the NFL’s legendary Ironman Brett Favre to get any cooler.

That perception was mistaken. Favre can get even cooler, and extra badass in no matter timeline or multiverse we’ve ended up in.

The three-time MVP, who turned the primary NFL quarterback to throw 500 landing passes, is standing with Tucker Carlson and he desires you to learn about it.

Sadly, Favre turned off the replies on his tweet, so I can solely partially see how offended he made the liberals.

It’s arduous to inform in the event that they’re kind of offended than when Favre joined President Trump for a spherical of golf in 2020:

However again to Favre’s Tucker feedback. He was opining on a phase of Megyn Kelly’s podcast, by which she razes Fox Information for firing Tucker.

Talking about Tucker’s assumed noncompete contract with Fox, which runs by way of the top of 2024 – primarily “taking him out of the sport” if he’s not capable of work wherever else throughout the Presidential election – Kelly warned her listeners:

“They don’t have a deal. Why not? As a result of he [Tucker] must be silenced? Whereas Fox tries to rebuild that disappearing viewers? They’re banking on you coming again to them. They’ve acquired a debate in August. You may’t resist! You’ll go. You’ll forgive every little thing! They’re banking on it.”

For a lot of on the correct, I’ve little doubt in anyway that Kelly is appropriate. I personally haven’t seen information on an precise tv set since 2007, however you’ll be able to wager I do know Boomers who would sooner stuff themselves in a trash compactor earlier than lacking “The 5.”

Favre, whose document of 321 straight begins over 20 NFL seasons is by far essentially the most insane document in all of sports activities, agrees with Kelly – flip it off!

Primarily based Brett Favre

After he disarmed the weapon of mass destruction that’s his proper arm, Favre turned extra open about his conservative political opinions.

In 2014, he minimize an advert for then-Mississippi Republican Senator Thad Cochran. He adopted that up in 2018 with an ad for Republican Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith.

However what actually acquired him on the radar had been his two largest and greatest strikes.

After {golfing} with President Trump earlier within the yr, Favre dropped this majorly kickass endorsement of Donald Trump:

My Vote is for what makes this nation nice, freedom of speech & faith, 2nd Amnd, arduous working tax paying residents, police & navy. On this election, we’ve freedom of selection, which all ought to respect. For me & these ideas, my Vote is for @RealDonaldTrump. #Vote ☑️🇺🇸

However even that wasn’t Favre’s most gutsy transfer. No, that got here a few yr after endorsing Trump, when he torched Nationwide Anthem-kneeler Colin Kaepernick like so most of the NFL defenses from 1992-2010:

Talking of torching defenses, I suppose the one potential solution to wrap up a narrative concerning the awesomeness of World Champion Brett Favre is to depart you with the only best efficiency in trendy sports activities historical past.
