Where is Mark Levin on Epstein?” influential MAGA commentator Tucker Carlson asked last week. “I notice that all these very voluble people who do not hesitate before imposing their opinions on the rest of us suddenly don’t have very strong opinions about Epstein,” he continued. “What is that?” Carlson’s questions came in the wake of the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation’s releasing a memo on the late Jeffrey Epstein. The memo closed the case on the notorious sex trafficker and made the surprising claim that there was no evidence he kept an “incriminating ‘client list,’” something that...

NOW - Tucker Carlson says Epstein was "working on behalf" of Israel and Israel was "committing crimes" on American soil.

Tucker Carlson took aim at the major sports betting companies for their “predatory” behavior that has led to massive gambling debt on Tuesday. In a new episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, Carlson and guest Saagar Enjeti drew parallels between the issues of gambling debt and credit card debt. The conversation first began with Enjeti giving a brief history lesson detailing how sports betting became so popular in the last few years. Then, Carlson compared the sports betting giants to credit card lenders and explained why, in his opinion, Americans simply shouldn’t pay the debts he deemed predatory: CARLSON: Why...

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told interviewer Tucker Carlson that people shouldn't take his country's 'death to America' slogans literally – claiming the phrase is more about calling for a 'death to bullying.' Pezeshkian made the comment to the podcaster and former Fox News host, who wanted to know if Americans should fear the phrase calling for their country's annihilation or having the U.S. referred to as the 'great Satan.' The Iranian president called it a 'very wrong impression.' 'When they say death to the United States ... they don't mean death for the people of the United States or even...

Tucker Carlson began releasing preview clips from his interview with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Monday, including one in which he asked Pezeshkian about Iranians chanting “Death to America.” “Many Americans are afraid of Iran. You say you’re not afraid, but Americans are afraid of Iran. And they believe that Iran would like to strike the United States with a nuclear weapon. They see video of Iranians saying death to America, describing our country as the great Satan. What is your opinion of that? Should we be afraid?” Carlson asked. “I believe that this is a very wrong impression that...

Tucker Carlson and Scott Horton talk about the background to the current Iran conflict. Interesting. Not for everyone. Imho worth the listen.

Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson announced that he has conducted an interview with Masoud Pezeshkian, the newly elected president of Iran, just days after the United States and Iran engaged in a brief military conflict. In a video statement, Carlson said the American public has a right to hear directly from foreign leaders — even adversaries — when their government engages in military actions. “We just finished up an interview with Masoud Pezeshkian, who is the president of Iran… We know we’ll be criticized for doing this interview. Why did we do it anyway? Well, we did it because we...

When Fox News abruptly fired Tucker Carlson in April 2023, the timing wasn’t just suspicious; it was glaring. Red flags were waving everywhere. It all started around the time he was airing never-before-seen footage from January 6th, exposing cracks in the official narrative. At the time, many suspected Tucker’s termination wasn’t just about ratings or contracts; it was about control. Now, thanks to Tucker himself, we know those suspicions were dead on. Maybe more so than you ever realized. ... According to Tucker, right after he was fired, Rupert Murdoch approached him and asked him to run against President Trump....

Tucker Carlson’s podcast surged up the YouTube and Spotify charts last week, buoyed by his confrontational interview with Senator Ted Cruz and his feud with fellow MAGA media stars over the Israel-Iran conflict. According to the latest available data, “The Tucker Carlson Show” jumped to No. 5 on YouTube’s weekly podcast rankings — a significant leap from his No. 18 ranking upon YouTube’s chart launch last month, and No. 14 just a few weeks ago. Carlson’s program also landed at No. 2 on Spotify’s podcast chart and No. 14 on Apple’s Top Shows for last week.

In April 2025, Tucker Carlson invited Matt Walsh onto his podcast. The conversation covered everything from same-sex adoption and surrogacy to foreign policy isolationism. It is well worth listening to. But beyond the substance of the conversation, there was simply something powerful about a discussion between two men with such influence on the American Right—each man has an audience of several million subscribers on YouTube alone. In the age of digital media, each man far surpasses the reach of any legacy-news media personality. Matt Walsh and Tucker Carlson could be fairly described as two of the most influential men in...
