Why is Tucker Carlson out at Fox?

First: Fox makes a stunning announcement: It's severed ties with its highest-rated anchor, Tucker Carlson. This will no doubt raise eyebrows as it happens one week or so after a nearly $800 million settlement for election lies. 

Plus: The president's team rushes to lock in key pieces of a would-be 2024 campaign, videotaping an official announcement and choosing a campaign manager. But still no word on when Joe Biden will greenlight his re-election bid. 

And: Ron DeSantis visits Japan, trying to look the part of Commander-in-Chief. But he's still playing coy about if or when he'll challenge Donald Trump.
