TUCKER CARLSON

​​

Validating Conspiracies Regarding Israel and the Assassination of Charlie Kirk. Carlson has used his massive platform to lend credibility to Candace Owens’ baseless theories regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk, framing her targeted harassment of the Kirk family as "just asking questions."

​​

• Defending Attacks on the Widow: In response to the outcry over Owens’ attacks on Erika Kirk (Charlie’s widow), Carlson stated on X: "The people telling you to shut up about Charlie’s death are the same people who told you to shut up about the vaccine. Why is Candace the villain for asking who actually benefits from this? If the official story is true, they shouldn't be afraid of a few questions. But they are terrified. That tells you everything." (October 2025)

• Implying Israeli Complicity: On his show, during a segment discussing the investigation, he remarked: "It’s interesting, isn’t it? The one group you are absolutely not allowed to suspect, the one country that has a track record of doing exactly this kind of thing, is the one country we are sending billions of dollars to. Candace pointed that out, and now they want to destroy her. It makes you wonder who is actually running this investigation." (November 2025)

Platforming Nick Fuentes and White Nationalists. Carlson has moved from dog-whistling to explicitly platforming avowed white supremacists and antisemites without pushback, treating their views as valid conservative critique.

​

• The "Cordial" Interview: In an interview with Nick Fuentes, Carlson laughed along with Fuentes’ claims about "Jewish control," stating: "I have to say, you’re much more reasonable than they told me you were. You’re just noticing things. And they hate you for noticing." (October 2025, Interview on TCN) 

• “I think he [Nick Fuentes] is primarily successful because of his talents, and because of the obvious truth behind some of what he is saying, which is true, right? The government of this country, or any country, should act on behalf of its own citizens, and ours doesn't, and that's an outrage. So, okay, that's just true” (All-In Podcast, YouTube, Dec 12, 2025). Who does Fuentes think the American government is really acting on behalf of? “Jewish power” and the Jewish State. In his circumspect but consistent way, Carlson again implies his endorsement of the conspiracy that Jews and Israel control America, which makes Carlson outraged.​

​​​

Accusations of Jewish Disloyalty and Private Ethnic Wars. Carlson consistently employs dual-loyalty tropes, suggesting that Jewish Americans and pro-Israel politicians are subverting American interests for a foreign state.

​​​

• The "Neocon" Equals "Jew" Equivalence: In a discussion regarding Mark Levin (who is Jewish) and war with Iran, Carlson posted: "Mark Levin was at the White House today, lobbying for war with Iran. To be clear, Levin has no plans to fight in this or any other war. He's demanding that American troops do it... They’ll say or do whatever it takes. They have no limits." (June 2025)

• Jewish Influence in DC: "You cannot actually divorce Israel and the neocons and all those things that you talk about from Jewishness: ethnicity, religion, identity... If you are a Jewish person in America, it's sort of rational self-interest... to say 'My ancestral home is in Israel'... They have this international community across borders, extremely organized, that is putting the interests of themselves before the interests of their home country." (October 2025, Conversation with Nick Fuentes)

​

Attributing the Ukraine War to a Jewish "Genetic" Vendetta. Carlson has repeatedly utilized his platform to reframe the geopolitical conflict in Ukraine as a private "holy war" waged by a specific clique of Jewish officials in Washington ("Neocons") against Russia, allegedly motivated by ancient ethnic grievances rather than American interests.

​​

• The "Genetic Hatred" Accusation: Carlson has provided a recurring platform to Colonel Douglas Macgregor, validating Macgregor's assertion that officials such as Victoria Nuland possess a "visceral" or "ancestral" hatred of Russia. This narrative explicitly suggests that American foreign policy is being hijacked by Jewish officials acting on "genetic" impulses to avenge historical grievances against the Russian Empire, rather than serving the United States.

• The "Neocon" Scapegoat: Carlson consistently isolates Jewish officials (e.g., Nuland, Blinken, Kagan) as the sole architects of the war, erasing Russian aggression. He frames them not as public servants, but as a distinct, alien power bloc within D.C. that is "at war with the Christian West" and willing to spend "American blood and treasure" to settle a private Jewish ethnic score.

• Inversion of Reality: By framing Russia as the defender of Christianity and the U.S. State Department (characterized by this "specific interest") as the aggressor against the faith, Carlson mainstreams the antisemitic trope that Jewish influence is structurally hostile to Christian civilization.

​

Mainstreaming Holocaust Revisionism:

​

• Carlson previously hosted Darryl Cooper, falsely introducing him as "the most important historian in the United States," while Cooper argued that Winston Churchill was the "chief villain" of WWII and that the Nazis were merely unprepared for the number of prisoners they had, framing the Holocaust as a logistical error rather than a genocide. (September 2024)

​

Declaring "Christian Zionism" a Heresy and "Brain Virus." Carlson has repeatedly attacked fellow Christians who support Israel, using language that pathologizes their faith and questions their allegiance to Christianity.

​​

• "Brain Virus" Accusation: "I look at people like Mike Huckabee or Ted Cruz... they are seized by this brain virus. They are acting on behalf of a foreign power. It is bizarre. It is a Christian heresy. It offends me as a Christian. Christian Zionism is not Christianity; it is a distortion that serves a political lobby." (November 2025, "This Is What Christian Zionism ACTUALLY Is")

• Denying Jewish Connection to the Holy Land: "The idea that 1948 was a fulfillment of prophecy... come on. That’s not in the Bible I read. That’s a Scofield reference note, not scripture. It’s a trick to get Americans to fight wars for people who don’t even like them." (December 2024, Tucker on X)

​​

Applying Double Standards to the Jewish State. Carlson consistently frames Israel as uniquely evil while ignoring or excusing the actions of its adversaries, often invoking antisemitic inversions.

​

• Accusing Israel of Persecuting Christians: "One of the reasons I'm mad about Gaza is because the Israeli position is, everyone who lives in Gaza is a terrorist... That's not a Western view. That's an Eastern view. That's non-Christian... They [Israel] are blowing up churches and killing Christians." (April 2024, Interview with Munther Isaac)

• Comparing Israel to Apartheid/Jim Crow: "We spent 50 years in this country saying Jim Crow was the ultimate evil. But then we send our tax dollars to a place that has separate roads for separate ethnicities. Why is that okay? Because they have a better lobby than you do." (August 2024, Tucker on X)

​

Carlson repeatedly lies and feigns ignorance in order to criticize the Jewish State.
 

1. On the U.S.-Israel Alliance

• The Past (Fox News Era, 2019): "I’m very pro-Israel, I’m an evangelical Christian, I’m a conservative, I’m a Trump supporter, and my whole life I have defended Israel... [It is] our great friend and the one true democracy in the Middle East." (Speech in Jerusalem, 2019)

• The Present (The Tucker Carlson Network, 2025): "I always thought it's great to criticize and question our relationship with Israel because it's insane and it hurts us. We get nothing out of it." (Interview with Nick Fuentes, October 2025). When pressed on the concept of Israel being a strategic "ally," Carlson employs feigned ignorance, “I don’t even know what those words mean. I’m just saying… I don’t know what that means, ‘To be an ally!’” “It’s a word people use to shut down conversation. If you look at the actual numbers, they take our money and we get a war. That’s not an ally; that’s a parasite." (Commentary on Tucker on X, November 2025). Meanwhile, he will state on his show, “Qatar is one of our closest allies in the world. … Very close ally of ours” (The Tucker Carlson Show 2025, cf. MilkBarTV on X).

2. On Hamas and Terrorism

• The Past (Standard Stance): Carlson routinely referred to Hamas as a "terrorist organization" and condemned their violence against civilians as "barbaric" during his tenure on cable news, aligning with the U.S. State Department designation.

• The Present (Legitimization): He validated the reframing of Hamas from terrorists to a political organization. "[They're] claiming that Hamas are a group of jihadis, [that] they’re Islamic extremists—which they also claim constantly, which—I don’t know if that’s true, by the way. It seems more like a political organization. But whatever. They’re telling us constantly they’re Al-Qaeda” (The Tucker Carlson Show).

3. On Christian Support for Israel

• The Past (Identification): "I am an evangelical Christian... I have defended Israel my whole life" (2019).

• The Present (Pathologizing the Faith): "I look at people like Mike Huckabee or Ted Cruz... they are seized by this brain virus. They are acting on behalf of a foreign power. It is bizarre. It is a Christian heresy... Christian Zionism is not Christianity" (November 2025).
