Who is Tucker Carlson? Even among the modern breed of American far-Right pundits, competing to be the loudest and most extreme voice on an oversaturated digital scene, he stands out as an oddity. Whatever you think of him, he isn’t predictable. He opposes abortion and immigration; his views on race have included describing Iraqis as “primitive monkeys”. Yet he has repeatedly given airtime to anti-Semitic guests, and seemed to implicate Israel in the murder of Charlie Kirk – hardly normal for even hardline conservatives. Nor is his decrying of the destruction of Gaza. Watching Carlson, or listening to his ultra-popular...

On June 8, 1967, the Israeli military machine-gunned, bombed and torpedoed the U.S.S. Liberty, an American vessel floating off the Sinai Peninsula, killing 34 service members. Those facts are not in dispute. But almost everything else about the attack is driving a wedge through the MAGA movement. On one side are prominent voices like the podcaster Ben Shapiro, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and Rich Lowry, editor in chief of The National Review. They insist the attack on the Liberty was a tragic case of mistaken identity amid the chaos of the Six-Day War, a conclusion shared by a U.S....

"Amazon fired 16,000 employees last week. At first glance, the terminations appeared standard. Online retail demand fluctuates with the seasons, and orders always decrease following the holidays. Factor in a few extra weeks of busyness due to post-Christmas returns, and late January makes sense as a time for layoffs. The gift-giving rush is over, so warehouses no longer need as many people. That is not a defense of a multi-trillion-dollar company pulling the plug on $15-per-hour workers, but if you’re a shrewd capitalist, the justification checks out. But there’s more to the story. It turns out the 16,000 fired Amazonians,...

Tucker on What the Violent ICE Protests Are Really About and What It Means for White America The Replacement is here and front and center. I know there are people here who dislike him. However there is a lot of truth here about the upcoming White genocide. I recommend that you listen and have others listen. We are in a war that our side is not fighting.

Tucker Carlson met with Donald Trump at the White House - and his appearance in the Oval Office has sparked another chapter in the growing MAGA civil war. The former Fox News anchor was seen beaming in images shared by his Tucker Carlson Network to social media on Friday, including engaging in a friendly conversation with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles was also seen at the meeting. The Anti-Defamation League, a nonprofit organization with a mission to combat antisemitism, issued a scathing response to the meeting on X, writing: 'Tucker Carlson should have...

Video Transcript Russia, and prepare yourselves because this is the global headline, Russia is actively considering the use of nuclear weapons against Europe. Not against Kiev, against Europe. Specifically, the UK and Germany. Just taking out the UK and Germany with nuclear weapons. That's a fact. Now, we're going to explain why we know that that's true in a moment. And at the end of this open, we're going to play an interview we did a few hours ago with a man called Sergei Karnagov, who is a longtime political advisor to Vladimir Putin and one of the most famous...

Speaking during an hour-long conversation with 22-year-old evangelist Bryce Crawford on the "Bryce Crawford Podcast," Carlson argued that the political debates in the U.S. often distract from deeper spiritual problems. "To make it Republican versus Democrat is completely false, and it also ignores the deeper truth, which is our problems start within us," he said. "And I honestly think that one of the biggest problems — sorry to shock your viewers — is pornography on the internet." Carlson went on to suggest self-destructive sexual depravity is a result of "the last 80 years of prosperity," which he said "has driven...

U.S. — With the fall of the Ayatollah regime appearing to be imminent, prominent Democrats expressed fear that the dangerous Iranian desire for freedom could potentially spread to the United States. Leaders of the Democratic Party stressed that the desire to be free from oppression could pose a serious threat to the American way of life and urged everyone to ignore what has been happening in Iran to prevent it from happening here. "This type of thinking is contagious," said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. "I wept when I turned on the news and saw what was happening in Tehran....

Haaretz analyst ‘took Qatari cash’ in expanding Qatargate scandal. Allegations centre on claims that Netanyahu’s aides accepted Qatari money to promote favourable coverage of Doha while Qatar led negotiations between Israel and Hamas By Jewish News Reporter. 12 January 2026. JNews Avishai Grinzaig @avishaigrinzaig:The editor of Haaretz found out about this back on April 25, and whitewashed it.

BROKEN ARROW, OKLA (KTUL) — The Broken Arrow City Council has denied a rezoning request and conditional use permit for a proposed mosque near Olive Avenue after a contentious meeting that lasted four hours. The decision came after the planning commission had approved the request last month. The meeting drew strong opinions both for and against the project, with several speakers opposing it due to concerns about traffic on the two-lane road, stormwater and floodplain issues, and whether the development aligns with the city's comprehensive plan. Rick Gates, a Wagoner County resident, expressed concerns about the financial implications, saying, "Maybe...

The conservative commentator wrote the 37-year-old mother likely has different immigration views from him, “But that shouldn’t matter. Her death is a tragedy, regardless of her partisan affiliations, ideological beliefs, or who pulled the trigger. A woman got shot in the face.” He compared the conservatives’ response to the left-wing reaction to Charlie Kirk’s killing, arguing Americans have become desensitized to home-turf violence because American leaders are “normalizing bloodshed.”

It was bad enough that ostensibly conservative political commentators Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens both have been the main drivers of a growing divide in the MAGA movement, through their obsession with demonizing Israel and the Jews. Now they have also become leading Western apologists for Islam. Are they even conservative? Were they ever? (Owens in particular has never been committed to anything but her own grift, not a political philosophy.) Conservatives are defenders; we preserve. Our mission, in large part, is to defend and preserve the liberties our forefathers earned for us. It is to defend and preserve the...

Far-right podcaster and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has taken aim at Israel again, accusing the Israeli government and its supporters of engaging in a campaign to promote fear of Islamic extremism and terrorism, while he downplayed the threat of violence by radical Islamic groups. On Friday, Carlson spoke by phone with Harrison Berger in an interview published by The American Conservative magazine. The magazine was established by former Republican strategist and presidential hopeful Pat Buchanan to promote his isolationist brand of paleoconservatism after he split with the Republican party. Berger, a correspondent for The American Conservative, is also...

Members of the MAGA faithful gathered here Thursday to kick off Turning Point USA’s America Fest, the largest meeting for the organization since its founder, Charlie Kirk, was shot to death on a Utah college campus in September. Despite that somber backdrop, the event quickly devolved into a spectacle of MAGA infighting.

U.S. podcaster Tucker Carlson announced that he plans to buy a home in the Qatari capital of Doha during an interview with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani yesterday (Sunday). Carlson stated that the purchase is being made in response to accusations that he has been paid off by the Qatari government for his recent praise of Qatar, defense of Sharia law and Islamist terrorist organizations, and hatred for the State of Israel. “I’ve never taken anything from your country and don’t plan to,” Carlson said. “I’m an American and a free man, and I’ll...

Bounties as high as $100,000 are being offered to contract killers for the murder of dozens of Israeli researchers, including some in the US, on the website of a hateful anti-Zionist group. “The Punishment for Justice Movement” website offers between $50,000 for murdering one of the Jewish academics listed — and twice that amount for the killing of “special targets” — claiming the high-achieving researchers are complicit in child murder. Home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses and social media accounts were listed for at least 40 academics, according to The Jerusalem Post. The website offered a $2,000 USD as reward...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Sunday publicly questioned whether Israel or another country is pressuring President Trump to conceal the files on late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein. “I think it’s a question that many Americans are asking, especially when we saw information recently come out in these emails that the Oversight Committee that I serve on has released, and we saw Jeffrey Epstein with ties to Ehud Barak,” Greene told CNN of her X post. “…Was Jeffrey Epstein working for Israel? And I’m proud to say I don’t take money from AIPAC. I don’t take money from any special group...

Tucker Carlson mounted a full-throated defense of New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani (D) in Thursday morning’s edition of the former Fox News host’s newsletter. Under the sub-header, “Jews for Mamdani,” Carlson wrote the following: "You saw the campaign attacks against Zohran Mamdani. He’s a socialist! True. He’s a communist! Possibly true. He’s an antisemite! Wait, what? Is the incoming mayor a fan of Israel? Does he want America to fight its wars? Not particularly. But a Jew hater? That’s a different conversation. We’ve never seen anything to suggest he falls into that ugly camp. Because he doesn’t. He plainly...
