Carlson has the right to demonize migrants – and advertisers have the right to not want to associate their products with his poison. He will be fine financially – big money in hate these days. He beats Hannity sometimes thanks to his ratcheting up the rancor https://t.co/HUzBpL2qjU

After saying that immigrants are making the country “dirtier"—and after losing advertisers—Tucker Carlson doubles down on his comments: “The truth is unregulated mass immigration has badly hurt this country's natural landscape.” https://t.co/8YrfuVIzFz

And people ask me why I’m mad all the time. Please spare me the “this is not America” BS. As bigot Tucker Carlson rages against immigrants, and the President’s bigotry is constantly in view—there are real people injured by this hateful rhetoric. https://t.co/Xd8TwsTUZf

Dear Tucker Carlson (@TuckerCarlson): I'm an immigrant. Irish Spring soap cleans my skin the same way it cleans your skin. My parents were poor. They worked hard and started a successful business. Now their son is in Congress.
So take your hatred of immigrants and shove it. https://t.co/I2cOv4nlLi
