Yes, Tucker Carlson did make the claim that President Trump would announce a war with Venezuela during his televised address on December 17, 2025.

The post satirizes Tucker Carlson's December 17, 2025, broadcast claiming a congressional source informed him President Trump would announce war with Venezuela at 9 PM ET, a prediction that failed as Trump's address focused on oil tanker blockades and demands for territorial concessions without declaring war.

Escalating U.S.-Venezuela tensions stem from Trump's renewed sanctions and a "total blockade" on Venezuelan oil exports, announced days prior, amid disputes over oil rights in the Essequibo region claimed by Guyana but controlled by Venezuela.

Author @LangmanVince, a vocal MAGA supporter, implies Carlson's error traces to anti-interventionist Republicans like Rep. Thomas Massie or Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, underscoring rifts within Trump-aligned circles over foreign policy hawkishness.

The post highlights a KELOLAND news article from December 17, 2025, which used a photo of a white man being arrested to illustrate the charging of Mohamed Manssarry, a 28-year-old Black man, with making a terrorist threat against a Sioux Falls building.

Manssarry's arrest followed a morning standoff where he allegedly threatened arson, leading to additional charges of controlled substance possession and obstructing law enforcement, as reported by local outlets like Dakota News Now.

Replies to the post reference historical media errors, such as a 2016 false narrative by Rep. Adam Schiff linking a white suspect to a Black church arson actually committed by a Black individual, underscoring recurring accusations of biased suspect portrayals.
