Tucker Carlson’s Dark Turn
National Review ^ | 7/24/2025 | JAMES KIRCHICK

Posted on 07/27/2025 10:17:09 PM PDT by marcusmaximus

He can’t stop talking about the Jews.

-snip-

A survey of Carlson’s programming and rhetoric over the past several years, however, makes abundantly clear that he is indeed very much “obsessed” with Israel and the Jews. Carlson has devoted more time and attention to the Jewish state, which he portrays in a uniformly negative light, than to any other country in the world. He has suggested that Israel and its agents have been behind everything from the assassination of President John F. Kennedy to the promotion of “white genocide” to the deceased financier Jeffrey Epstein’s supposed entrapment of the world’s most powerful men via the trafficking of underage girls. To listen to Carlson’s show is to come away with the impression that Adolf Hitler was misunderstood, that Israel is a country systematically murdering Christians, and that American Jews compose a bloodthirsty fifth column bent on conscripting their Gentile countrymen to fight Israel’s wars.

-snip-

Since Israel’s attack on Iran’s nuclear sites, Carlson has become even more brazen in questioning the ethics and loyalty of American Jews. “How did Bill Ackman get so rich?” he asked attendees during an hour-long harangue at a Turning Point USA conference in July, before invoking one of the hoariest of antisemitic defamations. “If you’re getting rich by loaning money to people at incredibly high interest rates, that’s something you’re going to have to talk to God about.” (Ackman is an investor, not a banker.) In an agitated appearance on Steve Bannon’s podcast five days before Trump bombed Iran, Carlson rhetorically asked a Jewish-American commentator, “Are you even from here?,” described two Jewish-American media personalities as Israel’s “proxies in the United States,” and raged that Israel “blew up a church in Gaza with my money,” adding, “I’m a Christian, like, no, how about no?”

We have allowed it to happen.

Whites are so into tolerance, inclusion, diversity, and full of white guilt, afraid of being called a “racist,” that many are essentially self loathing idiots.

Yeah, it’s that bad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y8AxjJJOuQ

If I soon hear that Tucker Carlson will be spending 3 hours interviewing Candace Owen, I will know he has re-invented himself - again, but this time in a very negative way

A survey of Carlson’s programming and rhetoric over the past several years, however, makes abundantly clear that he is indeed very much “obsessed” with Israel and the Jews.

The late Joseph Sobran once wrote an insightful article about the accusation of his being "obsessed" with Israel and the Jews.

An excerpt:

"Now and then I get letters and e-mail messages asking why I am so "obsessed" with Jews and Israel. The question amuses me. It would be one thing if I often wrote about Mali, or Honduras, or Borneo, or any other nation or country most people remember only as a name from geography class.

"I should think it's obvious that I'm responding to an obsession -- an obsession of contemporary culture, politics, the media, the arts. We have been getting 24/7 coverage of Jews, the Holocaust, and Israel for years now.

"The front pages, the evening news, the magazine covers devote so much attention to Israel -- a country the size of New Jersey on the other side of the world -- that you could get the impression that it spans several time zones and includes much of the world's population (plus a few gentiles).

"Many columnists write about it more often than I do: Charles Krauthammer, William Safire, Cal Thomas, Paul Greenberg, Mona Charen, and George Will, to name a few. Of course they write uncritically about Israel, so they aren't considered obsessed; Eric Alterman of THE NATON has compiled a list of more than 60 well-known pundits who "reflexively" support Israel, while finding only 6 who are frequently critical.

"Every American president has to spend a disproportionate amount of his time coddling Israel and denouncing or actively fighting Israel's enemies. It's become part of the job description, as much as if it were written into the Constitution -- or more so, since constitutional obligations have become optional and this obligation is definitely not."

Qatar may be sponsoring his podcast.

If they gave him a script, he has to read it.

Superficial observation of Tucker Carlson's recent works, interviews and speeches suggest that he has undergone some sort of personal epiphany. An epiphany in the traditional sense of the word, a religious experience leading to a renewed and very compelling Christian faith.

This is rank speculation but, if true, it would explain much of Carlson's political positions. It would suggest that he's not become anti-Semitic but rather Pro Christian. It is possible to see his criticism of Israel as part of his peace and love prospective generated by a conversion experience.

Similarly, his harsh criticism and borderline conspiratorial understanding of the American system might also be the product of a spiritual view of the world that does not tolerate corruption.

It is possible that he is not so much Pro Russian and anti-American or anti-Israel as might appear, rather he simply supports Russia's policies because he sees Russia as a defender of Christianity.

I would add further speculate that his abstinence from alcohol may well be tied into his new worldview and connected to a Christian conversion.

Again this is pure speculation but I note that the complaint of anti-Semitism being brought against Carlson his essentially a collection of innuendo and inference against which Carlson has issued vehement denials. In other words one set of speculations vs. another and confronted by denial.

But when accusing someone of anti-Semitism, like racism, the duty of proof is very heavy indeed because the damage is likewise very heavy.

To refine my previous comment:

A conversion experience actually converts the way one sees the world. An Islamicist does not see the world the way you and I do; he filters it through the closed loop of his faith. So it is not so much that he rejects Western culture, he simply does not have room for it because he is invested in sharia.

It is possible that a Christian convert now sees the incessant, often grubby, squabbles within the Beltway as something utterly irrelevant to a new reality. The daily stuff that occupies us here on Free Republic is all beside the point.

The new reality is not strictly anti-Semitism or anti-Americanism or pro-Russian bias, but a judgment of the world according to a new paradigm.

Tucker Carlson is an antisemitic, neo groyper type. If he is the future of Conservatism, then I want no part of it.

Contrary to Tucker and his guest, I do not think that Hitler was misunderstood and just a fumbler with regards to the Russian prisoners and the holocaust. I also don't think that Churchill was the main villain of World War II.

And if the antisemites on this board talk about Jews being pedophiles, I shall have to remind them of the Catholic Church and hits history of pederasty.

Instead of saying Christ is king, maybe Candace and company should say Christ is Uncle Ernie given the Catholic Church's sordid history.

One more thing, antisemitism is a quick way to get money. The demand for Jew hating nonsense far exceeds the supply. James Allsupp was able to make a good living spewing antisemitic nonsense until he was banned from you tube.

Tucker Carlson is merely doing the same thing Elmo is doing.

United States spends most of their time telling Israel how to fight a war.

“An Islamicist does not see the world the way you and I do; he filters it through the closed loop of his faith. So it is not so much that he rejects Western culture, he simply does not have room for it because he is invested in sharia.”

A racist does not see the world the way you and I do; he filters it through the closed loop of his race. So it is not so much that he rejects Western culture, he simply does not have room for it because he is invested in racism.
Narrow mindedness comes in many flavors.

NR author James Kirchick revealed his globalist fellow traveler inclinations —and late-stage TDS — near the end of his column w this spew that was a passive-aggressive smear of Tulsi Gabbard:

“Carlson’s hostility to ‘warmongers’ (a term of derision favored throughout history by fascists, communists, and Tulsi Gabbard) isn’t limited to Jews.”

He brings up solid points about Tucker then promptly proceeds to self destruct w an unwarranted attack on Tulsi.

Ok.

The question is, which one applies in this case?
