Tucker Carlson called out Amazon CEO and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos for his hypocrisy on mail in voting when it comes to his employees voting to approve unionization.

On Jan. 22, reports circulated about Amazon's push for in-person voting for their employees to vote to unionize, and their appeal of a decision to for employees to hold mail-in voting to establish a union in the company's Bessemer facility in Alabama. The company called on the National Labor Relations Board to pause the vote, citing "serious and systemic flaws" with the board process for conducting the vote by mail.

Carlson called mail in voting "suicidal for a democracy." Carlson and other conservatives have been railing against the expansion of mail-in voting since it was proposed by House Democrats like Speaker Nancy Pelosi at the beginning of the pandemic.

"No other free country would tolerate it. France and Canada don't tolerate it. They have banned mail-in ballots. They don't want fraud by the way," Carlson said.

"Now there's Amazon.com. It's a real company, Jeff Bezos, who owns it, is strongly for mail-in voting when mail-in voting allows his parties to take control of everything," Carlson continued.

Bezos also owns The Washington Post, which had repeatedly argued through the 2020 election cycle that mail-in ballots are safe and secure.

So aligned is Twitter to this narrative that the social media platform censored a tweet from journalist and conservative influencer Jack Posobiec in which he repeated Amazon's claim that mail-in ballot elections "have serious and systemic flaws." Amazon's tweet was not censored.

"You're a bigot, if you oppose that," Carlson said mocking the claims from Democrats that opposing the expansion of mail-in balloting is racist.

He continued, "But when it comes to union elections in his own company elections that might require Jeff Bezos to pay his long suffering workers, decent wages and benefits. Jeff Bezos is totally opposed to it. Amazon is fighting mail-in balloting in its union election in Alabama."

Carlson concluded the segment by saying, "Right now, at Amazon.com his position is that an election decided by mail-in ballots. Wouldn't be, and we're quoting valid or fair. Huh?"
