Joe Kent Says He Was Told ‘You Need to Stop’ Investigating Charlie Kirk Assassination (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Washington Examiner. Former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent said he and his team were blocked from continuing to investigate possible leads tied to the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, alleging federal agencies told them to halt their work despite unsolved questions.

Speaking on the Tucker Carlson Show following his resignation from the NCC, Kent said his office initially pursued leads related to possible foreign connections in the case, which fell within its mandate. But he said those efforts were curtailed.

“We were then told that, ‘Hey, you guys need to stop. You can’t work on this anymore,” Kent said.

Kirk, a prominent conservative figure and ally of President Donald Trump, was killed last September in a high-profile assassination that authorities have described as the act of a lone gunman on Utah Valley University’s campus. Kent said investigators were told to defer to state authorities in Utah and that federal agencies limited further inquiry.

“The FBI will say that they stopped that because they wanted to … turn everything over to the Utah State authorities,” Kent said, adding that officials characterized the case as a “slam dunk case.” (Read more from “Joe Kent Says He Was Told ‘You Need to Stop’ Investigating Charlie Kirk Assassination (VIDEO)” HERE)

Trump’s former counterterrorism chief Joe Kent under FBI investigation for sharing classified information: reports

By The Independent. The FBI has opened an investigation into Joe Kent, President Donald Trump’s former counterterrorism chief, who resigned from his post over opposition to the war in Iran, according to multiple news reports.

The bureau’s probe into Kent, who served as director of the National Counterterrorism Center, pertains to allegations that he mishandled classified information, four unnamed sources familiar with the matter told Semafor on Wednesday.

The investigation began before he left the administration, sources said, with one characterizing it as having gone on for months.

It’s being handled by the bureau’s Criminal Division, a source told CBS News.

Taylor Budowich, a former deputy White House chief of staff, appeared to allude to the investigation shortly after Kent stepped down. He wrote on X that the ex-counterterrorism chief was “often at the center of national security leaks.” (Read more from “Trump’s former counterterrorism chief Joe Kent under FBI investigation for sharing classified information: reports” HERE)

Tucker Carlson Claims Trump’s Push For ‘UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER’ From Iran Means Troops Can ‘Rape Your Wife and Daughter’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Tucker Carlson argued President Donald Trump’s call for Iran’s “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” will require significant military force because historically that has meant troops get to rape the women and children of the conquered nation.

He said the U.S. would “presumably” have to use nuclear weapons to achieve that goal, since the Iranians will likely fight like hell to make sure they are not vulnerable to mass sexual assaults. Carlson made his claim during an interview with Breaking Points co-host Saagar Enjeti on Friday.

“Unconditional surrender means foreign troops get to rape your wife and daughter if they want. And everyone knows that,” Carlson said.

He continued, “If there is one consistent lesson of history it means unconditional surrender means foreign troops get to rape your wife and daughter. Everyone can feel that. That’s like the most atavistic instinct there is. And so to avoid that, people will do anything.”

Carlson continued his argument by saying:

So that’s why it requires that level of force, to get a population subdued to the point of unconditional surrender. That’s why. And so in this case, of course we don’t have the ground force necessary — I don’t think Americans would voluntarily participate in it, I just don’t think we can do that. It would require weapons of mass destruction. It would require, presumably, nuclear weapons. And let’s not lie to ourselves, we’re moving toward that.

Heritage Foundation Antisemitism Task Force Board Member Quits Over Tucker Carlson Defense — as Think Tank Prez Admits He ‘Made the Mess’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A board member of the Heritage Foundation’s antisemitism task force resigned Wednesday, as the think tank’s president Kevin Roberts apologized for his defense of Tucker Carlson following the right-wing podcaster’s “softball” interview with white supremacist Nick Fuentes.

Laurie Cardoza-Moore announced she was withdrawing from the board of the National Task Force to Combat Antisemitism, also known as Project Esther, due to Roberts’ embrace of Carlson days after the Fuentes sitdown was released.

“I proudly accepted the invitation to serve on the Heritage Foundation’s Task Force as a tool to fight Jew Hatred, but I am being forced to stand down — unless they draw a clear line in the sand,” said Cardoza-Moore.

“Kevin Robert’s recent statement following Tucker Carlson’s interview with Nick Fuentes was extremely concerning,” she added. “If the Heritage Foundation wants to stand on the right side of history, they must cut all ties with antisemites.”

Cardoza-Moore, who founded the Christian Zionist group Proclaiming Justice to the Nations, claimed that she had told Carlson “in person and publicly, he is a dangerous antisemite.”

Roberts in a private town hall with Heritage staff on Wednesday said he “made a mistake” by issuing a full-throated defense of the former Fox News host.

Democrats Seek Funding for Male Prostitute Cooking Classes, African Pride Parade, Nepali Transgenders, and More

/7 Comments/in , , /by

Thanks to DOGE, Americans spent the beginning of this year learning the obscene ways the government wastes their tax dollars. Many of the examples were jaw-dropping. More emerged last week.

John Kennedy highlighted a series of Democrats’ proposed foreign aid initiatives during a speech on the Senate floor on Friday, including using millions of dollars for circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia, transgender programs in Nepal, LGBTQ activities in the Western Balkans and Uganda, cooking classes and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti, electric buses in Rwanda, and a pride parade in Lesotho. We promise each of those is real.

Republicans cut funding for the above programs after Donald Trump reclaimed the presidency. Democrats’ current proposal to end the government shutdown would bring it back. We think we speak for this newsletter’s readers when we say the GOP should not let that happen. If coastal liberals want to cut checks for Zambian foreskin removal, then good for them. They shouldn’t force the rest of the country to do the same. (Read more from “Democrats Seek Funding for Male Prostitute Cooking Classes, African Pride Parade, Nepali Transgenders, and More” HERE)

‘This Is Amazing!’: Tucker Carlson Stunned As Wikipedia Co-Founder Walks Him Through Site’s Blacklist

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Daily Caller News Foundation co-founder Tucker Carlson expressed amazement on “The Tucker Carlson Show” Monday as Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger guided him through the site’s blacklist.

Wikipedia has a “perennial sources” page that categorizes sources based on how reliable they supposedly are, using “public discussion and consensus.” Sanger told Carlson on his show how to find the list and informed him as he searched for it that The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, The Nation, Mother Jones and GLAAD were among those with approval from Wikipedia.

“Come on!” Carlson exclaimed, laughing.

“These are all green lit, fully green lit,” Sanger said. The Wikipedia co-founder then read some of the “blacklisted” sources, including Breitbart News, the Daily Caller, The Epoch Times, Fox News, the New York Post and The Federalist.

“So, you can’t use those as sources on Wikipedia,” Sanger said.

“Oh, wow,” Carlson said as he looked at the list on his phone. Sanger explained the color coding. (Read more from “‘This Is Amazing!’: Tucker Carlson Stunned As Wikipedia Co-Founder Walks Him Through Site’s Blacklist” HERE)

Tucker Carlson Says Netanyahu Claims He ‘Controls Trump,’ Slams U.S. Loyalty to Israel as ‘Humiliating’

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a fiery appearance on Glenn Greenwald’s System Update podcast this week, Tucker Carlson issued one of his strongest critiques yet of the U.S.-Israel relationship—specifically accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of bragging about controlling former President Donald Trump, and calling the influence of Israeli leaders over American policy “humiliating.”

“I’m not guessing about this,” Carlson told Greenwald. “I talked to people he [Netanyahu] said it to. Bibi’s running around the Middle East saying, point blank, ‘I control the United States. I control Donald Trump.’”

The former Fox News host and longtime conservative commentator framed his critique not as anti-Israel, but as pro-American—focusing his ire on U.S. political leaders who, he argued, are failing to represent the interests of the American people by putting Israel’s priorities first.

Carlson, a vocal Trump supporter who publicly endorsed and campaigned for him in 2016, said Netanyahu’s alleged comments about controlling Trump struck a personal chord.

“Even if I didn’t vote for Trump, which I did—I campaigned for Trump—but even if I hadn’t, I’m still an American. You can’t treat us like this. It’s too humiliating,” Carlson said. “I can’t handle that, and I shouldn’t have to put up with it.”

He continued, “There’s an ongoing humiliation ritual designed to make us all crazy—designed to turn us into haters.”

Carlson made clear that his primary criticism wasn’t of Israel itself, but of American politicians—on both sides of the aisle—who he says have allowed a foreign government to steer U.S. policy, often to the detriment of American citizens.

“I’m attacking my leaders who are allowing my nation of 350 million people to be forced into doing things that are bad for me and my children because of some other country,” he said. “That is a violation of the most basic arrangement we have with our leaders, which is: represent us, please—at least most of the time.”

Carlson’s comments come as U.S. support for Israel continues unabated during its war with Hamas, with billions in military aid and unconditional diplomatic backing. He has become one of the few prominent voices on the political right to break from the bipartisan consensus surrounding Israel, especially amid rising civilian deaths in Gaza and increasing global concern over the scope of Israel’s military campaign.

Carlson also addressed critics who have accused him of antisemitism or bigotry for his stance, saying these accusations are used to silence meaningful criticism and distract from uncomfortable truths.

“They just scream at you and call you names,” Carlson said. “But calling me a bigot doesn’t [hurt me], because I know that I’m not. I’m not going to give them the satisfaction of becoming what they call me.”

He added, “I’m not a hater, and I’m never going to become one. But I will never accept this.”

Tucker Carlson Sparks Outcry Over “Antisemitic” Comments at Charlie Kirk Memorial as New Video Casts Doubt on FBI Narrative

/52 Comments/in , , /by

Tucker Carlson has come under fire following remarks made during a memorial service for conservative activist Charlie Kirk, whose recent assassination has stirred political tensions and rampant speculation.

Speaking to a packed crowd at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, Carlson appeared to compare Kirk’s death to the crucifixion of Jesus, suggesting both were targeted for speaking uncomfortable truths to power.

“So it’s about 2,000 years ago in Jerusalem, and Jesus shows up and he starts talking about the people in power… and they just go bonkers,” Carlson said. “They become obsessed with making him stop: ‘This guy’s got to stop talking. We’ve got to shut this guy up.’”

Carlson then added: “I can just sort of picture the scene in a lamp-lit room with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus, thinking about — ‘What do we do about this guy telling the truth about us? We must make him stop talking.’ And there’s always one guy with the bright idea, and I can just hear him say, ‘I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we just kill him?’”

Carlson’s remarks sparked immediate backlash from several Jewish groups and Israeli media outlets, who accused him of promoting antisemitic conspiracy theories. Critics pointed to his reference to hummus—despite it not being historically accurate to ancient Judea—as a possible allusion to modern Israel:

Carlson has not responded to the allegations, and he did not explicitly name any individual or group in his speech. While the FBI has maintained that the shooting appears politically motivated and was likely carried out by a lone actor, many remain unconvinced.

Online discourse has increasingly centered around the possibility of foreign involvement, with some voices suggesting Israeli interests could have had a motive—though no hard evidence has emerged to support these claims. Nonetheless, the topic has gained traction in certain corners of the media.

Adding to the uncertainty, a new video that began circulating today appears to contradict the FBI’s official timeline and trajectory of the shooting. The footage seems to show that Kirk was shot from a direction inconsistent with the agency’s claims. See below:

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

/1 Comment/in , , /by

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.”

Tucker Carlson Calls for Stripping Citizenship from Americans Who Served in the Israeli Army; Carlson Claims Jeffrey Epstein Worked for Israel to Blackmail U.S. Officials

/3 Comments/in , , /by

By The Forward. Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News host and a leader in the Republican Party’s isolationist wing, said that Americans who previously served in the Israeli Defense Forces should have their U.S. citizenship revoked over concerns of dual loyalty. At the same time, he also criticized the Trump administration for trying to deport pro-Palestinian students who engaged in anti-Israel activity on campus.

“There are a lot of Americans who’ve served in the IDF — they should lose their citizenship,” Carlson said in a 45-minute speech on Saturday at the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit in Tampa, Florida. “You can’t fight for another country and remain an American, period.” . . .

Carlson also devoted nearly half of his speech to a government memo, released last week, related to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal that has embroiled the administration and caused divisions within Trump’s base in recent days. Carlson claimed that Epstein, a disgraced Jewish financier accused of sex trafficking, was working for the Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service.

“It’s extremely obvious to anyone who watches that this guy had direct connections to a foreign government,” Carlson said. “No one is allowed to say that that foreign government is Israel, because we have been somehow cowed into thinking that that’s naughty. There is nothing wrong with saying that. There is nothing hateful about saying that. There’s nothing antisemitic about saying. There’s nothing even anti-Israel about saying that.” (Read more from “Tucker Carlson Calls for Stripping Citizenship from Americans Who Served in the Israeli Army” HERE)

Tucker Carlson claims Jeffrey Epstein worked for Israel to blackmail US officials: ‘Every single person in DC thinks that’

By Independent UK. Tucker Carlson has claimed that deceased child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was working for the Israeli government and that “every single person in Washington D.C.” thinks the same.

“I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t think that. I don’t know any of them that hate Israel. But no one feels they can say that,” the former Fox News host told an audience in Florida on Friday.

Carlson also suggested that the disgraced financier may have been running “a blackmail operation” as he discussed new information recently released by the Department of Justice. . .

Speaking about the development at a Turning Point USA summit in Tampa, Carlson slammed the findings of the administration.“The real question is, why was he doing this, on whose behalf, and where did the money come from?” he said.

“I think the real answer is Jeffrey Epstein was working on behalf of intel services, probably not American. And we have every right to ask, on whose behalf was he working?

Tucker Just Dropped a Bombshell About His Final Days at Fox News

/3 Comments/in , , /by

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.
    Sounds crazy, right?

    If true, that’s not “business as usual.” That’s backstabbing sabotage, plain and simple. And it would show just how deep Fox News’s disdain for Trump runs and how desperate they were to stop him.
