It's been coming for a while, but this week, the once-conservative firebrand Tucker Carlson has doubled down on a version of reality that would make Iran's mullahs blush. Carlson used an appearance on the East Meets West with Olga and Tara podcast to unload on a provision in the fiscal year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act that would expand defense-technology cooperation between the United States and Israel. His verdict? Lawmakers who back the measure are acting against America's own interests, effectively merging our nations’ militaries.
Carlson didn't stop at policy disagreement. He accused the Republican Party of handing the country's sovereignty to a foreign government, sparing only two members from his contempt.
"The Republican Party has decided that the interest of Israel is more important than the interest of the United States," Carlson said on the podcast. "There are a couple of exceptions Marjorie Taylor Greene, Thomas Massie, and they were driven out of the Republican Party. So it tells you what the priority is. The priority is serving Israel."
Coming from a man who has spent years cozying up to authoritarian regimes and excusing Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, that's rich. But consistency has never been Carlson's strong suit.
He then accused Israel's Mossad of feeding American policymakers fabricated intelligence for decades.
"Mossad has fed, repeatedly, disinformation lies to American policymakers over decades, including the lie that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction," Carlson said. "That fundamentally came from Israel. There's no dispute about that."
There's plenty of dispute about that, because it's false.
British intelligence, French intelligence, German intelligence, and Spanish intelligence all concluded Iraq likely possessed chemical and biological weapons and was in defiance of the United Nations.

Who?
His anti defense positions turned me off to Tucker long ago.
Here’s how Tucker closed out his rant -— He accused anyone who defends Israel of defending genocide.

“We’re against genocide, we’re against book burning, that’s what we learned from the Nazi period,” Carlson said. “And all of a sudden you wake up and we’re like, ‘No, no, genocide’s totally fine, as long as Israel’s doing it.’ In fact, if you call it genocide, you’re the bad person.”

He’s nuts, Jim.
He said the Devil, or a Demon was living in his barn, and it attacked him in his sleep, and he has scars from it.
I saw him say it on a live YouTube Video.
He implied something was trying to stop him.
100%. He has a large viewership at that time.
Tuck the “[your character here]”uck has been over the edge BS Crazy for a couple of months now.
I totally eschew him now.
He’s of no Furthur [sic] use.
Brain tumor? Drugs?
Wonder who’s pushing his buttons?
It’s his new act, all meant for clicks.
He’s also on Video saying that before Biden won in 2020, the Biden family told him that Joe Biden had full blown dementia and his life was strong, overpowering drugs and Jill ran everything.
Tucker said he didn’t report it because he seemed like a nice, old man. That’s what he said. He remained silent while Biden went on to win.
He should be checked for a brain tumor seriously.
Tucker, I have your IQ score in hand. And it’s not what you always thought it was. Not by a long shot.
To save you the embarrassment, I’ll keep it confidential.
Once he lost his steady paycheck he needed a way to keep the money flowing. The only way to do that is to go batshit crazy and cultivate a fervent following of lunatics who will pay over and over again to see you spew nonsense. Same thing happened to Candace and Lemon and Megyn Kelly and Joy Reid. But Tucker is the worst of the worst.
Tucker Carlson’s mention of Donald Trump was phrased as an offhand comment about a hypothetical veto, rather than a direct, formal legal accusation.
This is extreme connecting the dots taking place here.
All pro-Russians want Trump tried.
Whoever thinks merging the the Israeli military with the US military is in the best interest of the United States is bat poop crazy. Have all the Americans been runoff this forum?
How about when Tucker openly asked if Trump is the anti-Christ? Was that an offhand comment?
