Former Fox News host and one-time Trump booster Tucker Carlson declared Friday that President Donald Trump should be removed from office “immediately” over nuclear policy in the Iran conflict.
Carlson made the explosive declaration Friday during a lengthy interview with Joe Kent, the former director of the National Counterterrorism Center, who resigned from the Trump administration in protest of the war with Iran.
The episode was ominously titled, “LEAKED: Pentagon Nuclear Plans Prove the US Is Out of Options,” with an entire chapter labeled, “Should Trump Be Impeached?”
Carlson said he had been “strongly opposed” to both of Trump’s first-term impeachments and called those efforts “absurd.” Then he drew a new line.
“The second any president actively considers first use of nuclear weapons, that person should be removed from office immediately, because that’s got to be the red line, destroying all of humanity with a nuclear strike,” Carlson said. “So why isn’t there an attempt to remove him from office, like, immediately?”
He added that “any leader of any country who suggests first use of nuclear weapons has forfeited his right to lead” and that “anyone who would even tolerate that kind of talk from any of his subordinates or employees is by definition unfit.”

Does somebody have some really bad dirt on Tucker?
Traitor Tucker aka Chatsworth Osborne Jr. (RIP Rush).
Joe Kent had zero qualifications to run the Cyber security bureau. But Trump felt sorry for him after he lost a House election, and gave him the job. Kent’s leaks to Candace Owens and treachery is how he paid Trump back for his kindness. Many such examples of this with Trump, unfortunately.
Today’s version of the person Dana Andrews punched out in the movie The Best Years of Our Lives.
LOL! Interview with Joe Kent.
The validity of what Carlson said aside, he sure does like to take Iran’s side.
I wonder how much he was paid to make this latest comment.
Disclaimer: Of course it’s possible that no money changed hands, and Carlson is just an attention-seeking pig.
Islamic converts have a tendency towards sedition
And,,? Who cares what he says?
I avoid all those people, and what little I saw about him always made me uncomfortable and distrusting, there are a lot of political wackos in modern America with cable, podcasts, the internet, personalities who can attract a profitable audience from our pool of 340 million people as performers using emotional hooks, politics, health, the supernatural, UFOs, religion.
Tucker isn’t a serious person so there isn’t much reason to take him seriously when he says something stupid.
Remember, during their interview, when Putin told us Tucker Carlson had applied to work in the CIA out of college?
I think he was giving us all a hint about Carlson.
Tucker Carlson and Joe Kent together. What a brain trust. 😆
Sure doubt if Carlson will be headlining any conservative get-togethers any time soon.
Supposedly his new wife has close ties to the Soros funding of all the non-profit organizations, basically she’s tied into very left-wing organizations.
Rejection stress syndrome?
Didn’t Tucker just interview his buddy, Hunter Biden? Tells ya all you need to know.
Well, Kent presented himself as very MAGA and courted Trump and his voters. Seems like a phony to me.
