Davis, a Ukrainian-born columnist who founded the Russian Media Monitor YouTube channel to report on Russian state media, shared the clip on her social media along with a caption noting that the “propagandists did their best to cope with Ukraine’s daring operation and used Tucker Carlson’s clip to boost their morale, but their nerves still got the best of them.” Davis has repeatedly pointed out how Carlson, a former Fox News host, gets frequent and positive coverage in Russian media due to his commentary that is viewed as sympathetic or allied with the Kremlin. Carlson understood the reason for the “deep divide between Russia and the West” and “why the West lost its mind this way,” said Solovyov, as he cued up a clip of Carlson and his guest saying that the “reason” the U.S. hated Vladimir Putin was that he had “decapitate[d] the oligarchy,” made the Russian economy recover, and made it “a beautiful country.” “Vengeance, or rather just punishment, for those organizing this is also inevitable,” she said, adding that it would be similarly “inevitable” for them to negotiate “about how they prefer to stand in front of the wall, with a blindfold, or on their knees, facing the wall, or bravely looking down the barrel of a gun” — directly threatening that the planners of the drone strike should be executed by firing squad.
