Tucker Carlson Condemns Netanyahu’s Response to Charlie Kirk’s Death; Kirk ‘Did Not Like Bibi Netanyahu’

Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson has strongly criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for what he described as a “ghoulish” and self-serving reaction to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. In a recent episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, the former Fox News host condemned the exploitation of Kirk’s death for political gain — particularly by foreign leaders.

Carlson, who was close to Kirk, said he was “shocked and sickened” by Netanyahu’s public statement following the young conservative activist’s assassination. According to Carlson, the prime minister attempted to reframe Kirk’s death in support of Israel’s ongoing military operations — a move Carlson called “disgusting.”

“Basically [Netanyahu] made it all about him and all about his country,” Carlson said. “Immediately trying to take the energy, the sadness, the grief that people felt over Charlie’s murder and redirect it towards support for whatever project he’s involved in.”

Carlson emphasized that Kirk had long expressed deep reservations about Netanyahu and his policies, especially the conduct of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.

“He loved the state of Israel. He loved going there,” Carlson said. “But he did not like Bibi Netanyahu. He felt that Netanyahu was a very destructive force. He was appalled by what was happening in Gaza.”

According to Carlson, Kirk was particularly frustrated by what he saw as Netanyahu’s willingness to use American political and financial support to further Israel’s military objectives — at the expense of U.S. interests.

“He believed Netanyahu was using the United States to prosecute his wars… and that it was shameful, embarrassing, and bad for the United States,” Carlson said. “He resented it.”

Carlson acknowledged that some Netanyahu allies and defenders would likely attack him for speaking out, but he insisted that Kirk’s views on the matter were well known and could be corroborated.

“There are enough text messages that I think it can probably be verified in pretty short order — not that it needs to be, because that is true.”

Carlson also revealed that Kirk had come under heavy pressure from donors and political insiders for inviting Carlson to speak at a recent Turning Point USA conference. According to Carlson, Kirk lost a $2 million donation just two days before his death due to that decision.

“Donors tormented Charlie Kirk until the day he died,” Carlson said. “I hated seeing how much he was suffering, the hassle he was getting from people.”

He described the pushback as intense and driven in large part by individuals aligned with Netanyahu, who viewed Carlson’s criticisms of Israeli policy as a threat to their influence.

Carlson’s remarks sparked immediate discussion across the conservative political landscape. Former Republican congressman Matt Gaetz came to Carlson’s defense, writing, “I have personal knowledge as to many of the claims Tucker is making here. They are 100 percent true.”

For Carlson, the issue is not merely political — it’s personal. His remarks were rooted in what he described as a genuine concern for preserving the truth about who Charlie Kirk was and what he believed.

“There are many liars out there — Bibi Netanyahu number one among them, shamefully — who are trying to distort the truth,” Carlson concluded. “A truth that I know and can prove.”

WATCH: Rep. Thomas Massie Confronts FBI Director Kash Patel Over Epstein Trafficking Claim

In a fiery exchange on Capitol Hill Wednesday, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) directly challenged FBI Director Kash Patel over his recent claim that no “credible information” exists tying Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation to any individuals beyond Epstein himself.

Massie, a vocal proponent of government transparency and a longstanding advocate for the release of the Epstein files, pressed Patel over his testimony before the Senate earlier this week — and used the opportunity to read out a partial list of prominent figures who, according to victims, were allegedly involved in Epstein’s trafficking network.

“Director Patel, I watched some of your Senate hearing yesterday,” Massie began. “You said there’s no credible information that Epstein trafficked these women to anyone else. But that doesn’t match the evidence the FBI already has.”

Massie then cited FBI Form 302s — official records of witness interviews — which, he said, contain testimony from victims naming at least 20 men, including Jes Staley, the former CEO of Barclays Bank. Other unnamed individuals, according to Massie, include a Hollywood producer worth hundreds of millions, a royal prince, a government official, several billionaires, and even a magician.

“We know these people exist in the FBI files, the files that you control,” Massie said. “I don’t know exactly who they are, but the FBI does.”

He then asked Patel directly: “Have you launched any investigations into any of these people, and have you seen these 302 documents?”

Patel responded that while he had tasked FBI agents with reviewing all Epstein-related material, no new indictments had been brought forward, and no new credible evidence had been presented to him personally.

“We’re working with Congress to divulge that information and produce it to you,” Patel said. “But there have been no new materials brought to me.”

Massie didn’t hold back.

“So is the loophole here that you’re saying these victims aren’t credible? That the 302s maybe didn’t produce credible statements that rise to probable cause?” he pressed.

Patel denied making that assertion, attributing the lack of prosecution to the judgment of two separate U.S. Attorneys’ Offices under three different presidential administrations — none of which pursued further charges based on the documents.

The congressman, however, refused to let the matter drop.

“Are the 302 documents in the FBI’s possession?” Massie asked.

“They reviewed all that, yes, sir,” Patel replied.

“And have you reviewed them — the ones where the victims name the people who victimized them?”

“If I personally—no. But the FBI has,” Patel admitted.

That prompted a pointed response from Massie:

“So how can you sit here and in front of the Senate and say there are no names? I named one today.”

Patel responded that the FBI doesn’t typically release names of either victims or individuals tied to unproven allegations, especially when the agency has determined that the information does not meet a threshold of credibility or probable cause.

“We are not in the habit of releasing incredible information,” Patel said. “Multiple authorities have looked at the entirety of what we have.”

But Massie wasn’t satisfied.

He underscored that the limitations of prior investigations — particularly the controversial 2007 non-prosecution agreement signed in Florida — did not apply to the 2019 Epstein indictment in the Southern District of New York, which, he noted, generated a fresh wave of interviews and supporting documentation.

That distinction, he argued, invalidates Patel’s claim that earlier constraints hampered the FBI’s ability to follow through on victim allegations.

As outrage continues to build across the political spectrum over the lack of public accountability in the Epstein case, Massie’s interrogation marks one of the most direct public challenges to the FBI’s current handling of the matter — and raises fresh questions about why the names of alleged accomplices remain sealed, even years after Epstein’s death.

“We owe the American people the truth,” Massie said. “And I intend to keep asking.”

Newsmax Host Asks Netanyahu If Israel Is Behind The Killing Of Charlie Kirk

A Newsmax host asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reply to fringetheories that Israel was behind the killing of Charlie Kirk ― and got an earful from the leader on the “ridiculous,” “insane” and “stupid” rumors.

Greta Van Susteren prefaced the question Thursday by noting the “absurdity” of the claims.

“Before I let you go, I want you to address one thing, and it’s just the absurdity of it,” Van Susteren said. “Some of the internet rumors that somehow Israel is behind the Charlie Kirk murder, and you know, I don’t believe it for one second, but I want you to, you know, make a statement. It’s so absurd.”

Netanyahu laughed ruefully before proceeding.

“That’s insane,” he said. “Israel also changes the orbit of the moon. Israel pushes the sun. I mean, the whole thing is not only insane, I think it’s so absurd, so stupid, and so ridiculous. You can’t believe that people are saying that.”

U.S. Congressman Demands New Investigation After Speaker’s ‘FBI Informant’ Assertion in Trump‑Epstein Case

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D‑Fla.) is calling for a renewed congressional investigation into President Donald Trump’s alleged cooperation with law enforcement in connection with Jeffrey Epstein, following a surprising claim from House Speaker Mike Johnson (R‑La.) that Trump acted as an FBI informant during his past interactions with Epstein.

On September 5, Speaker Johnson told reporters that Trump “was an FBI informant to try to take this stuff down,” referring to the Epstein case. The statement sparked confusion, backlash, and urgent questions about what exactly Johnson meant.

Within days, Johnson’s office attempted to clarify the remarks. He said he may have used the wrong terminology and that he meant Trump cooperated to some extent—not that he held the classic role of an informant. Johnson emphasized that Trump had never impeded the Epstein investigations and had, in fact, expelled Epstein from his Mar‑a‑Lago property when rumors of wrongdoing emerged.

Rep. Jared Moskowitz described the Speaker’s claim as a “significant event” and argued that it falls squarely within the House Judiciary Committee’s jurisdiction. He questioned whether the FBI, under Director Kash Patel, has verified any such informant status.

Moskowitz also raised the possibility that Trump’s alleged informant status could have come about if Trump was “turned” — i.e. that he may have been compelled to cooperate in order to avoid repercussions for complicity or for knowledge of wrongdoing.

With Epstein’s case involving high‑profile individuals, the public is demanding clarity. If the Speaker of the House makes such a claim, many believe Congress has a responsibility to verify it. Moskowitz has emphasized this point.

The claim — and the backtracking — have added fuel to already heated debates over Trump’s relationship with Epstein, the release of Epstein‑related files, and accusations from both sides about cover‑ups and political exploitation of the case.

This issue remains fluid. As more evidence emerges — whether in public documents, DOJ statements, or Congressional testimony — key questions are likely to stay in the spotlight: What did Trump actually do?

Conservative Activist Charlie Kirk Fatally Shot at Utah University; No Arrests Made (VIDEO)

Charlie Kirk, the prominent conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, was shot and killed Wednesday during a speaking event at Utah Valley University (UVU). He was 31 years old.

The fatal incident occurred during the opening stop of Kirk’s “American Comeback Tour.” The event, held under a white tent on the UVU campus, was open to the public and had drawn both supporters and critics. According to witnesses and video footage, a single gunshot rang out as Kirk addressed the crowd. He was seen reaching for his neck before collapsing, as panicked attendees fled the scene.

Kirk was transported to a local hospital in critical condition but later succumbed to his injuries. Officials have not yet confirmed the shooter’s identity, and no suspect is currently in custody—despite initial reports from the university suggesting an arrest had been made.

Former President Donald Trump confirmed Kirk’s death on Truth Social, calling him a “great” and “legendary” figure.

“No one understood or had the heart of the youth in the United States of America better than Charlie,” Trump wrote. “He was loved and admired by ALL, especially me… Melania and my sympathies go out to his beautiful wife Erika and family. Charlie, we love you!”

Kirk had long been a close ally of Trump, championing his policies on college campuses and becoming one of the most recognizable faces in conservative youth politics.

The FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) have launched a joint investigation. UVU campus security is working in coordination with federal authorities.

According to law enforcement sources, the shot may have come from a distance, possibly from a nearby building. No weapon has been recovered as of Thursday morning.

Kirk’s appearance on campus had stirred tension in the days leading up to the event. The UVU Review, the university’s student-run newspaper, reported student opposition to his presence. Despite those protests, the event proceeded with an open invitation to the public.

In the hours following the attack, lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle issued statements condemning political violence and calling for unity.

“We may not agree with one another, but violence is never the answer,” said Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN). “This was a cowardly act against a young man exercising his right to free speech.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) called the shooting “a tragedy and a threat to civil discourse in America.”

Charlie Kirk rose to national prominence after founding Turning Point USA in 2012 at just 18 years old. The organization aimed to promote conservative values among young Americans, particularly on high school and college campuses. He later became a vocal supporter of Donald Trump and was known for hosting high-energy campus events, debates, and podcast appearances.

Over the past decade, Kirk became a polarizing figure in American politics. Supporters praised him as a bold defender of conservative values.

Kirk is survived by his wife, Erika Frantzve — a podcaster and entrepreneur — and their two young children.

New video reveals what angry Phillies fan yelled at father before demanding ball from young son in viral outburst

New video showed what an enraged Phillies fan said to a father she berated to hand over a home run ball he had just given to his son.

The father corralled a home run ball that Harrison Bader hit into the left field stands during the Phillies-Marlins game Friday night at loanDepot park and then gave it to his son, Lincoln, a few seats away, before the two shared a heartwarming hug.

But the woman subsequently charged at the father, grabbed his shoulders and demanded the ball back, seemingly under the belief she was entitled to it since it was closer to her seat.

Still, the father gave the ball to her before shooing her away back to her seat.

A Marlins representative later came to the section, apologized to Lincoln — who was celebrating his birthday — and gave him a “goodie bag” with various gifts.

“That was not OK,” the Marlins rep said to Lincoln. “So we brought you a cool little goodie bag. …I’m so sorry.”

Top DOJ Official Spills Epstein Cover-Up in Shocking Honeypot Sting; DOJ Posts “Embarrassing Apology”

The Justice Department is facing intensified scrutiny following the release of a clandestine video in which DOJ Acting Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt reportedly admitted plans to politically shape disclosures tied to the Jeffrey Epstein case.

In the video released by political activist James O’Keefe of O’Keefe Media Group, Schnitt is seen telling an undercover operative—who he met through the dating app Hinge—that Epstein-related documents would be “redact[ed] every Republican or conservative person in those files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people in those files” to deliver a decidedly one-sided narrative. He further alleged that Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to a minimum-security facility violated Bureau of Prisons policy—suggesting it was a “benefit … to keep her mouth shut.”

Schnitt also claimed internal conflict within the DOJ, describing Attorney General Pam Bondi as a “yes person” aligned with former President Trump, while FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino pushed for broader file release.

The department swiftly denied the claims, calling them baseless and unrelated to its internal process. A DOJ spokesperson stated Schnitt’s comments “have absolutely zero bearing with reality and reflect a total lack of knowledge of the DOJ’s review process.”

The video emerges amidst mounting political pressure for full disclosure of Epstein-related documents. House Oversight Committee members recently made 33,000 pages available publicly—though Democrats argue that only ~3% of those pages contained new information.

Republicans and Democrats alike are pushing for further transparency. Figures such as Rep. Thomas Massie (R) and Rep. Ro Khanna (D) are spearheading bipartisan efforts to compel a full release of all unclassified DOJ materials.

Meanwhile, former President Trump dismissed the controversy as a partisan “Democrat Epstein Hoax,” calling for it to end while some GOP lawmakers continue to call for more disclosures.

Questions remain: Was Schnitt’s off-the-record admission a true reflection of internal DOJ intent—or merely personal conjecture? How many truly new documents remain unreleased?

Mysterious Objects Thrown from White House Window Spark Viral Speculation

A strange scene at the White House over the weekend has ignited online buzz after a video surfaced showing unidentified objects being tossed from a top-floor window of the historic building.

The video, which quickly gained traction on social media, shows a person repeatedly hurling items from what many believe to be the Lincoln Bedroom, located on the upper floor of the executive residence. The objects fall to the ground below, though it remains unclear exactly what was being thrown or why.

According to a White House official, the individual seen in the footage is a contractor performing routine maintenance. The incident occurred while President Donald Trump was away, and there is no indication of any security breach or unusual activity beyond the video itself.

Online speculation quickly filled the gap left by the official silence, with some internet sleuths suggesting the objects could be debris from an ongoing renovation. President Trump has previously criticized the design of the Lincoln Bedroom’s adjoining bathroom, describing it as “terribly” remodeled in the Art Deco style. He confirmed last month that a makeover of the space was underway.

“We’ll be doing the Lincoln bathroom, which was Art Deco,” Trump said at the time. “We’re making it actually incredible.”

The video comes amid broader renovation plans at the White House, including the construction of a $200 million, privately funded State Ballroom. The 90,000-square-foot venue is slated to be built in the East Wing and will accommodate up to 650 guests. The project is expected to be completed before the end of Trump’s current term in early 2029.

Officials: Illegal Alien Trucker from India Received CDL from California Before Killing 3 Americans

The driver of a semi-truck involved in the deaths of three Americans has been identified as Harjinder Singh, an illegal alien from India who illegally entered the U.S. in 2018 across the U.S. border with Mexico.

The accident occurred near Fort Pierce, Florida, on August 12, when a northbound semi-truck allegedly crossed over all lanes as the driver tried to use an “official use only” turn opening on the Florida Turnpike so he could head south.

The abrupt crossing of all lanes gave other drivers little time to slow down, resulting in a Chrysler Town & Country slamming head-on into the trailer. All three of the car’s occupants died as a result of the collision, two at the scene and a third at a hospital, according to WPTV-TV.

The fatal crash shut the turnpike down both ways for hours.

Officials initially noted that the men in the cab of the semi were from California, and video of the drivers’ dashcam was released. A statement from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FHSMV) said Singh obtained a commercial driver’s license (CDL) in California.

Wild Video Shows Dems’ Pick for SC Gov’s Race Being Arrested in His Underwear While Calling Himself God and Superman

Wild, newly released dashcam footage shows the Democrats’ choice to run for governor in South Carolina getting arrested recently in just his underwear — while swearing, using the n-word and referring to himself as both God and Superman.

Married father of four William “Mullins” McLeod, 53, is facing calls from his own party to step down from the gubernatorial race that he only formally entered Monday after video emerged a day later of his bizarre arrest just months earlier in May, according to WCBD.

The prominent attorney was stopped in downtown Charleston while “yelling at the top of his lungs” and wearing only underwear and shoes, according to a police report — which suggested he showed signs “typical of an individual under the influence of a stimulant narcotic.”

The Dem referred to his upcoming election race — even threatening to kick an opponent’s “f–king teeth in” — while refusing to tell cops his name, instead referring to himself as God and Superman, the hour-long video released through a Freedom of Information Act request shows.

“It doesn’t matter, my friend, trust me,” he told one officer when asked his name. “I’m one of the most just humans to ever walk this soil,” he said. (Read more from “Wild Video Shows Dems’ Pick for SC Gov’s Race Being Arrested in His Underwear While Calling Himself God and Superman” HERE)
