Carlson started by apologizing on behalf of the United States after US Ambassador David Pressman, a gay activist, lectured the Hungarian government over LGBTQ rights.
"The point of diplomacy is not to hector other nations for its own sake," said Carlson. "To show up in someone else's country and scream at them because they're different from you."
"I'm not in the habit of apologizing for the United States. In fact, I don't think I ever have, but the behavior of the American ambassador to Hungary makes me want to apologize,"
said Carlson. "It's disgusting and inexcusable. It's also so far from
the norms of diplomacy in my country that it's hard for me to believe
that David Pressman is actually doing what he's doing.
And so for a creep like David Pressman, who is not a diplomat - who's a political activist and Biden donor - to show up in your country and lecture you about your culture, and threaten you because you do things differently from the way they do things where he lives... hurts the United States and is a grave embarrassment to me as an American, and an outrage to me as someone who pays his salary. It's disgusting. Currently same-sex couples in Hungary aren't allowed to adopt children, and changing genders is also illegal. Pressman, meanwhile is a gay human rights lawyer
and California-born former aide to former US Secretary of State
Madeline Albright. Earlier this year, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter
Szijjarto slammed Pressman, saying he was way out of line." ZeroHedge
