TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): The key question is how does Lloyd Austin define a racist or an extremist? The definition matters. 

...

What you are seeing is a political purge of the military. Consider what has been happening during the military's training on, quote, extremism. A lot of enlisted soldiers have asked a pretty basic question -- Hey, wait a minute, weren't the BLM and antifa rioters this summer extremists? Seems like they were. 

They murdered people. They murdered a lot more people than died at the Capitol on January 6th. A lot more. They burned businesses, they wrecked cities. In some places it took the National Guard to stop them.=

So, why aren't these people extremists? Good question.
