The news that Tucker Carlson had been fired from Fox News was met with delight and glee from the senior ranking officials within Joe Biden’s Department of Defense. This is not surprising given that Carlson had been a vocal critic of the “woke” U.S. military and its personnel policies. Carlson had warned that if the “woke brain virus” began to infect the U.S. military, it would be a “legitimate disaster”.

It appears that the deep state is celebrating Carlson’s departure, as senior Defense Department officials anonymously told Politico that they were “better off” without him “bagging on our military every night in front of hundreds of thousands of people”. Ohio Senator J.D. Vance accused these officials of being cowards for “hiding behind anonymity”, and he is right.

Every “senior Pentagon official” who commented on this story while hiding behind anonymity is a coward. https://t.co/WIxQr2GhPO

The Biden administration’s joy over Carlson’s firing is indicative of their desire to silence conservative voices and to push their own agenda. The Biden administration has been pushing for a more “woke” military, and it appears that they are willing to go to any lengths to ensure that their vision is realized.
It is also worth noting that Fox News’ stock plummeted to as much as 5.1 percent following the news of Carlson’s firing. This is a clear sign that the network is losing its audience, as many viewers have grown tired of the network’s increasingly liberal bias.
The Biden administration’s joy over Carlson’s firing is a troubling sign for those who value free speech and independent thought. It is clear that the Biden administration is willing to go to any lengths to silence conservative voices and push their own agenda, even if it means sacrificing one of the most popular conservative voices in media. This should be a wake-up call for all Americans who value freedom of speech and independent thought, as it is clear that the Biden administration will not hesitate to silence those who oppose them.
