FILE - Tucker Carlson, left, and former President Donald Trump, right, react during the final round of the Bedminster Invitational LIV Golf tournament in Bedminster, N.J., July 31, 2022. A defamation lawsuit against Fox News is revealing blunt behind-the-scenes opinions by its top figures about Donald Trump, including a Tucker Carlson text message where he said “I hate him passionately.” Carlson's private conversation was revealed in court papers at virtually the same time as the former president was hailing the Fox News host on social media for a “great job” for using U.S. Capitol security video to produce a false narrative of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection.

A group called Daughters Defend Democracy has put together a fun little reminder for the folks down at Mar-a-Lago in Florida. Tucker Carlson hates Donald Trump “passionately.” At least that’s one of the ways Tucker explained his distaste for the leader of the Republican Party in texts that were released during the Dominion Voting Systems defamation lawsuit against Fox News.

The group put together a billboard truck that has been circling Trump’s Florida resort all day, with Carlson’s face and pull quotes from his many mean texts about Trump. Things like “I hate him passionately,” and “We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” emblazon the truck on screens.

It is not known whether or not Trump has heard about Tucker’s comments yet.

Enjoy.

Sign if you agree: No one is above the law

You know about the DSCC and DCCC, but have you heard of DASS? You'll want to! We're talking with Kim Rogers, the executive director of the not-especially-well-known but crucially important Democratic Association of Secretaries of State on this edition of The Downballot.

Rogers explains how her organization helps recruit candidates, deploy resources, and win races for secretary of state across the country—and why these elections operate so differently from many others. She also tells us about what Democratic secretaries are doing to fight disinformation and expand voting rights, and the most bonkers thing she heard come out of the mouth of a 2022 election denier.
