• Tucker Carlson announced in May that he would relaunch his program on Twitter, and Tuesday released his first episode, with a segment about the destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam in the Ukrainian city of Kherson.
• “As of today, we have come to Twitter, which we hope will be the shortwave radio under the blankets,” said Carlson at the end of the 10-minute episode. “We’re told there are no gatekeepers here. If that turns out to be false, we’ll leave, but in the meantime, we are grateful to be here.”
• Carlson, who until his firing was the top-rated cable TV news host with more than 3 million nightly viewers, did not address his departure from Fox in the video.
