From the July 9, 2020, edition of Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight:

TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): Democrats want to abolish the suburbs, they are too clean and nice, and therefore by definition they are racist. The Biden campaign has highly specific plans on how to do this. It's called affirmatively furthering fair housing. It's a H.U.D. regulation, it was written during the Obama administration. Biden's advisors plan to enforce it. They will cut off critical federal funds for municipalities unless those municipalities submit to federal control of urban planning. Towns will be ordered to abolish zoning for single-family housing because single-family homes, needless to say, are racist. Low-income federally subsidized apartments will go up in the suburbs. It's a good bet you won't see any of this, you won't see projects being built in Aspen or Martha's Vineyard or anywhere else Eric Holder vacations, but in your neighborhood? Oh, yeah.
