Tucker Carlson has announced the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has been monitoring his contacts with people within Iran and is potentially referring the issue to Dept of Justice (DOJ) officials for criminal review.
According to his previous self-admissions, Carlson was strongly against the Trump administration taking military action toward Iran and had travelled to the White House to express that opinion to President Trump. If the CIA was monitoring his contact with officials within Iran, this should NOT come as a surprise.
Given the nature of the conflict both before (during negotiations) and after the military hostilities began (operation epic fury), it would be negligent if the Intelligence Community was not monitoring that communication. Obviously, Tucker should know that; it’s a simple DUH issue.
You don’t get private time with President Trump about an issue of national security without the IC monitoring your behavior with foreign contacts. That said, the part about a potential criminal referral would depend on the nature of the communication itself.
As an example: a quid-pro-quo toward an interview with a high-level Iranian official in exchange for specific dialogue pushed through a widely followed social media platform could present legal issues (FARA etc.). Given the specific part of the video where Mr. Carlson strongly emphasizes he was never paid; it seems to me the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) is source of the issue.
Here’s the risk. According to the DOJ regulations, a person does not need to get paid by the foreign entity in order to violate FARA. However, on the other side of the issue, journalists -news or press services engaged in bona fide news or journalistic activities- are exempt from having to register under FARA guidelines. Tucker Carlson knows what his contacts were about, states his innocence and claims he is being targeted. WATCH:
.
If Tucker is communicating with Iranian leadership …
And the US military has vowed to remove Iranian leadership via targeted bombing…
And the CIA is tasked with foreign intelligence, specifically to wiretap communications which can be used to determine individuals’ physical locations…
Then tapping Tucker’s calls to geolocate the Iranian leadership will help the military remove said leadership. I encourage all new self-declared Iranian leadership to continue to try to contact Tucker for more interviews.
That being said, it’s all on Tucker to provide journalistic integrity. If he is sharing data back, such as positions of US warships, or our strategies to break the blockades, he is exposing himself to a lot of trouble and the DoJ (if not JAG ) should get involved.
Hahahaha. Well played.
i strongly believe that Tucker would never share such data. Ever. I believe he is a good man, even an incorruptible journalist, who just seems to remember that our president did not want to engage in foreign wars. Perhaps Tucker even feared it might also be a big mistake, as we may be seeing now. Things appear to me to be way out of control.
The lobsters are on the loose.
Lobsters on the loose, as in using a child’s imagination?
it is genuinely amazing to watch the devolution. not of tucker, but of the incredibly shrinking trump base. now we are advocating FISA 702 – literally the situation described above. thats maga, now. just like warmongering and printing trillions a year and gleefully cheering on death and destruction.
amazing.
No one is advocating FISA 702. You made that up as you are inclined to do.
Sundance is pointing out that under current law, if one has a private conversation with the POTUS, about National Security issues then has a conversation with a foreign government with whom our govt has a hostile relationship, that conversation is going to be recorded by NSA. That is a fact, not a defense or promotion of FISA.
A fact you would know that if you paid any attention whatsoever to the things Sundance researches and posts here for free, rather than spend all your capital bitching about President Trump not meeting your personal demands, while insisting that MAGA is failing, as if you are some national spokesperson for a movement of millions.
It is tiresome.
Thank you AC. Great rebuttle.
“It is tiresome” and troll-like.
Awesome response because its the truth.👍
Hammer, meet nail!
We’re dooooooooooomed!!!
Bwahahahah.
You way over simplify….think a little more, plus you are too literal….
So because you disagree with someone on this forum, they have other faults too – they “oversimplify” and are too “literal.” It’s quite a chore to keep up with what we are not allowed to think and believe here anymore.
Debrief by the CIA or other government agencies of people who travel to abroad – especially those having high level meetings with people who threaten the US – has been the norm for decades. Ever been through customs? Now imagine you met with high level religious zealots who proclaim “death to America”, continue text messaging and publicly proclaim that you “hate” people like Ambassador Huckabee and any Christians who believe that Israelis deserve to live in peace free from invasion, rape and murder by terrorist neighbors.
Then you meet with the US President.
Do you really think those communications shouldn’t be monitored? Why?
Please tell us who the “high level” people are who threaten the U.S. I have never heard Tucker say he “hated” Huckabee and Christians who believe that Israelis deserve to live in peace. I don’t recall him EVER saying that about anyone. You minimize your case when you exaggerate.
Re “the incredibly shrinking trump base.”
Just because someone is not 100% in agreement with 100% of Trump’s thoughts, words, and actions, does not mean they do not approve overall and will not continue to support him.
On the other hand, rats will often foolishly abandon ship in the middle of the ocean during the slightest onset of thunder showers; even though, they have nowhere else to be safe.
It sure seems that way. Now we are FOR foreign wars, not against. Trump must have quite a time trying to keep up with what his base believes – at the moment.
Thank you for bringing that up!! Whether we agree with Tucker or not, he is being caught in the snare that is FISA 702. And without a warrant, the Ci@ violated his 4th amendment rights.
Pattern recognition. Psyops to split America continues.
15 min Clip of Brett Weinstein & Tucker interview that touches on this point.
“Bret Weinstein’s Thoughts on Charlie Kirk and Iran”
the robert barnes interview on friday is another sobering one. yet another of the true maga crowd that is left wondering wtf happened, and persona non grata as the enemies list grows and no one seems to notice the only common denominator in it all.
imo, trumps only ally in battling the deep state, tulsi… is going to be the next shoe to drop.
Barnes has not been MAGA consistently – he has gone back and forth several times since 2016.
Robert is not now and has not been MAGA. He used to support RFK. He has gone cold on him too.
Frankly, based on the 80+ “Likes” of Alleycats rebuttal of your comment, I’m not sure the majority of Treepers care what your opinion is.
Conspiracy abounds, couldn’t watch it past 5mins. There wondering if Biibi had anything to do with Kirk’s murder, slip that thought to listeners. Than they assume Trump would have listened to Kirk about not going to Iran. Yes Kirk was an amazing man but I’m pretty sure Trump’s his own man.
Perhaps this video where James Lindsay discusses what is happening with Tucker might disabuse you.
Thanks, QR. Always good to have more info. Tucker has become deranged as far as I’m concerned. He’s disgusting. I greatly worry that he’s still influencing so many.
Never liked him and now can’t stand him, he reeks of narcissism and elitism.
I agree. I used to watch him on Fox. I don’t waste my time following him now. Tucker has lost his freaking mind.
His bigotry has way outpaced his talent!
Agree w/ you and all like-minded repliers on this thread. Also, I stopped watching Tucker when I saw a recurring theme developing in his newly minted podcast episodes: namely his animosity for MAGA.
Pure spec of course, but it seems like he blames MAGA for his Fox News termination.
Regardless of the “why”, it’s clear that what’s driving him is driving him mad.
“he blames MAGA for his Fox News termination”
I put the blame on his intent on calling out big Pharma for people taking Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRI) drugs being responsible for ~90-95% of mass shootings here in the USA. The termination happened about 10-14 days after that.
IIRC about 10% of people taking them do not metabolize them the same way as most others, leading to the severe side effects.

Time will tell.
Haha. A quick google search shows Tucker’s dad was a BMOC in the CIA . Tucker applied for the CIA but decided to become a “journalist”. Yeah, cause journalism would pay better and be more fun starting out at the county courthouse.
I have no idea if Tucker is a good man or not, but the bow tie always seemed a bit over the top … like a costume he put on.
The bow tie was there because the “National Review” conservative was a good money maker back then. Then he was more of a McLaughlin Group conservative. Next was libertarian, than FOX News “truth teller,” then he decided he would flirt with MAGA, now he’s the “alt-right” alternative media adjacent man of the people.
I still want to know what Putin meant by his comments to Tucker about the CIA.
“National Review” conservative
I had forgotten fake conservative George Will and his bowties, never made the Tucker connection as an homage.

Putin Appears to Mock Tucker
His dad also ran radio free America for a while.
Tucker was given 32 million to start his network by a Quarti Muslim.
Clowns typically wear a costume……… just saying!
This thread is becoming ridiculous.
I hope I don’t have to deal with people who are willing to trash me for having my own opinion.
“Things appear to me to be way out of control.” Are you speaking for the CCP? My opinion is that the CCP is thinking that things are way out of control, and I think that it is fantastic.
What I see going on in Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, etc. is very different from the Bushies going into Iraq and Afghanistan for a 20 year grifting operation.
What do you propose? We ignore that bunch of Neanderthals that want to kill every Jew and Christian on the planet and that also have killed hundreds of our service people with roadside bombs over the last 20 plus years in Afghanistan and Iraq? It’s idiots who think like you that have put us in this position? People that would run out the back door if a maniac with an axe came in the front door and leave their families to be slaughtered!
We played footsie with those Bastards long enough? 47 years of putting up with a bunch of old wrinkled cloisterd clowns with rags on their heads threatening the world with nuclear weapons is enough! We got em by the balls now and soon the heart and mind will follow.
As for Carlson, I used to like him one time but he’s gotten light in the loafers since he was at FOX News? This fool must be smoking his old shite stained BVDs?
I think they prepose watch Iran go nuclear snd bring back the super mullah.. or maybe get vaporized. Some people like to wstch the world burn
Wow – my opinion of people posting on this site just took a huge dive. As we used to say back in the 50’s ” See you later alligator, after while crocodile.”
Its all about the money. Always has been and always is since the beginning of time.
Dad was CIA so there is that.
Remember he attacked the integeity of our military and our leadership.
Unconditional surrender is not a license to American soldier to rape women and chldren and kick puppies. Where does this media clown get off. Perhaps his CIA brothers think thats okay. But uniformed military will put a bullet through the head of anyone that would dishonor the brother hood that way.
Hes a douche and perhaps a paid douche or hust a deepstate xontrolled opperations Douche. Lota of limited hangouts.in this guys history.
It does tend to make the targeted nation fight harder, however.
I agree with your comment. It takes strength for someone to stand up and say what they believe. Just because Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham says it does not make it true. In fact, if they made a statement, I would not believe a single word they said – they have ZERO credibility. I commend Tucker for expressing his doubt about Netenyahu is saying.
Thank you. I believe the same thing about Tucker. It’s almost as if we here at the Treehouse are dealing with people who have been brainwashed. We all thought the president felt the same way we do about war and the need to stay out of one or get out of one as quickly as we can. But this war feels forced on we the people from out of nowhere. I certainly hope it’s not because Netenyahu talked him into it – I would be extremely disappointed if that is the case. But one needs to ask the question (uncomfortable at it is) why is Trump (who made it clear he was against regime change wars) now all of a sudden in a regime change war? The regime is the same as it has been for years. What happened to change his mind about that? And why should any of us have to lose our children or grandchildren because of this all of a sudden war? It breaks my heart to see the coffins coming home. I too believe this was a huge mistake and could have been handled differently. The question is “why wasn’t it?”
Was this the only alternative? Surely, not. Trump bragged that he put a stop to seven or was it eight wars at the beginning of his term. Why was he not able to stop this one? It seems as if it came out of nowhere and we had no choice. But we always have a choice.
Something is off here but I don’t know what it is. And to accuse Tucker of being a traitor to his country is a bridge too far.
What’s a lobster?
How would any private citizen know the positions of US warships, etc? I doubt President Trump would share any of that with Tucker.
It could be that Tucker has gone off the deep end as many like to say. Or maybe his criticism of Israeli government tactics really is the root of the problem.
I think you are right. It’s more about the criticism of the Israeli government.
As a Christian I believe what the Bible says that Jews are God’s chosen people but no where in the Bible does it say the I have to support the actions of the Israeli government.
I have long believed that their government spied on politicians and blackmail people. I still do.
I did not want us to join with Netanyahu in this operation but we did.
Now that we have I pray for a successful outcome and the safety of our troops.
Just my opinion but everyone who didn’t want to see any of young men and women die in this conflict doesn’t make them crazy or a Trump hater.
I love President Trump but I did not want to go to war again.
Chosen, but not specially protected. Still subject to Divine Wrath and Judgment. See Bible for details.
Yes we all are. Amen
I unferstand not wanting to what was the alternative
He is not just criticizing the Israeli government. He is propping up islamic groups and pretending not to know things in his effort to attack Israel and frankly the Jews.
Pretending Christians are well treated in muslim countries is disgusting. Tens of thousands of non-muslims are slaughtered every year worldwide by muslims and Tucker pretends not to know that while criticizing Israel for persecuting Christians.
If Israel is doing so, they should be called out. But lying about how muslims and muslim countries treat Christians given the hundreds of millions of Christians that have been murdered, enslaved, raped by muslims is morally reprehensible.
And I 100% agree with you on that point. When he says I think it makes you look crazy because Islam is not our friend.
But he is not always wrong, so I listen.
Sorry I meant when he says Islam is not our enemy.
What a shame that all of those secular nationalist strongmen in the middle east who used to keep the imams down and the Christians protected are no longer around…
Re “I did not want us to join with Netanyahu in this operation but we did.”
Not true. Trump’s reasoning for hitting Iran’s leadership was formed well before Netanyahu became Israel’s prime minister. It was Trump who initiated taking those leaders down and he would have done so with or without Israel.
Re “Just my opinion but everyone who didn’t want to see any of young men and women die in this conflict doesn’t make them crazy or a Trump hater. I love President Trump but I did not want to go to war again.”
No, but it does make people with such opinions less than enlightened. The truth is that Trump is saving lives that would be lost over the coming decades, or as long as Iran’s immediate previous leaders might have remained in power.
The number of lives lost during the last 47 years far exceed those lost during this war. So does the number of future lost lives if our brave president failed to keep them from happening.
That you cannot or refuse to see that and be accepting of it… well, perhaps you’re more blind than your screen name indicates you believe you are.
“As a Christian I believe what the Bible says that Jews are God’s chosen people”
They are not in this dispensation. Please see Romans 11:25-6 & Ephesians 3:1-10
Israel fell at the stoning of Stephan in Acts 7. They are now counted as one of the nations without their exalted status. They will regain it in the future when this age ends with Christ returning in the air (before he comes back to set foot on the earth. Romans 9-11.)
Galatians
3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Oh boy…
Thank you for the scripture! I’m sharing that with others.

its not actually difficult at all. to be clear. combat vessels are required to transmit AIS (although that can be and almost always is turned off when in combat or covert operations. But the areas they are operating a heavily trafficked, so you can’t just assume that by killing AIS you can not be seen. These are very large vessels. The entire network of ships do communicate whether for or not any specific motive. It’s normal to communicate traffic, and specifically when you come upon a combat vessel that IS NOT TRANSMITTING AIS. In that case, you tell everyone you know in the area to be careful because it’s likely for the sh$t go down.
also noting: combat vessels will often transmit to the area a broadcast message to clear out if there is a operation underway that requires a empty sea range.
also noting: there are now several commercial and private satellites that for just a few hundred bucks, a person, anyone really, can gain access to an area. these satellites fly over essentially the same region about every 90 minutes. That is just long enough to accurately view any vessel in that particular part of the world and produce a near real time track that can give you pretty good estimates about heading and mission type. (it’s one of the most surveilled areas of the world, outside of maybe DC itself, I can’t think of anything more important to have a view on that the straits of H.

kind of like Sean Penn when he spoke with a high level drug cartel kingpin many years ago….?
funny how Sean Penn doesn’t like to talk about that anymore.
fact is, whether he cares to admit it or not, his contact with that drug kingpin was collected and in near real time an arrest was made. Sean “don’t go full retard” Penn doesn’t like to talk about that anymore. wonder why?
it’s analogous to this exact situation.
and besides, I highly doubt that it would be tucker, nor was it sean penn, they were focused on. It was the foreign target who might be inclined to speak more openly to “a friend”…an advocate.
back to the analogy/parallels. its known Sean penn advocated decriminalization of hard drugs and has for decades had various interesting associations with several high level cartel members.. likewise, its alleged that tucker is directly funded by Qatar.
the point here is that there are probably TWO reasons for the surveillance. 1. Iran obviously would be targeted for all of their comms. 2. Tucker would have been targeted long ago, for the reasons that he has a dodgy shadowy association with some very powerful foreign nations and is likely representing those foreign actors in his not so carefully veiled theater he calls journalism.
God Bless America

Right the F on
I, for one, do not believe Tucker is a traitor. He is entitled to his opinion on any matter, especially this one – JUST AS WE ARE ENTITLED to our opinions. Period – end of story.
If he were REALLY doing that he would have been arrested already. How about everyone calm down and let the CIA do its work? If Tucker is really a traitor, the CIA will handle it.
Tucker has become a mental case along with Candace,Me-Again, Gen. Flynn etc.. They all take the word “influencer” to a level out of their wheelhouse. When they lose that needed “influence fix” they create bizarre stories. I think the world is experiencing a true Romans 1: 28-30 moment.
“ 28 And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper,
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips,
30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,
31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful;
32 and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them. (Romans 1:28, NASB)
I don’t know if that is actually Tucker’s motivation – I think he may be motivated by money or lifelong ties with the IC.
Candace and Me-Again are totally doing it for fix – they have both been attention whores for a long time. Me-Again covers the Megan and Harry crap and other ridiculous celebrity gossip regularly. And Candace is like a tabloid podcast with her talk of Kanye, the Kardashians, Taylor. Candace like Me-Again has been chasing the latest trend/ money making opportunity for years.
Candace has made millions off her non-stop attacks on Eric Kirk and Charlie Kirk conspiracies. Candace is vile – she has basically accused a widow with young children of being involved in her husbands death without any evidence just gossip, innuendo, and lies. The cruelty of that is off the charts.
Way off the charts.
That’s a pretty big list of sins you are quoting Paul on. I wonder if you could use Jesus’s words
Mathew 7:3-5
3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.
Jesus had many more observations about our sin to mention here.
I would rather like think that Tucker might be somewhat misguided. But either way he like you is a child of God and without Jesus’s forgiveness we are all filthy sinners.
Tucker has become a mental issue,
He’s always been a mental case, from those early days as a bow-tie wearing CNN shill. He is grandiose and his laugh borders on hebephrenic.
Hebephrenic. Had to look that one up!
hebephrenia
[hee-buh–free-nee-uh]

nounPsychiatry.
a type of schizophrenia characterized by emotionless, incongruous, or silly behavior, intellectual deterioration, and hallucinations, frequently beginning insidiously during adolescence.
Good grief – this describes the Libbys!!!
Man, that’s a good word.
Wordman put that in your pocket for later use ☝️
He still brings on credible guests like Catherine Fitts; I will not write him off yet.
I think it’s getting worse. The laugh was once an affectation now it’s a tick.
Tucker always had the better than the proles attitude inculcated in wealthy kids that spend their formative years in expensive private schools with other rich kids. He’s unfortunately now determined that he has a moral authority behind his opinions.
Tucker thinks very highly of himself. I suspect most if not all of us would dislike him greatly if we were forced to work or socialize with him.
Tucker Carlson has become the P.T. Barnum of the internet. He is a master at self-promotion. He knows what buttons to push to stir up the self-styled “America Firsters”, as evidenced by at least one comment already posted. For the life of me, I am at a loss to understand the thought process, if it can be called such of these people. They know nothing of history and either fail to know or simply disregard Iran’s clearly stated goal to destroy the “Big Satan,” namely the USA as well as the unremitting efforts Iran has made at doing so, resulting in hundreds of dead and maimed Americans. Meanwhile, I would dearly love to know how Carlson “knows” the CIA is listening to him as well as why he would be conversing with Iranians. Perhaps he is looking to expand his real estate holding in the Middle East beyond his house in Qatar.
Is this the same Tucker who recently claimed harassment at the hands of Israeli security after his interview with Ambassador Huckabee?
did you watch the interview? Huckabee did not come off well. Huckabee is a shill for Israel.
I think it depends on your frame of reference when viewing.
I saw Tucker doing a lot of the innuendo or outright lies that he then has to scale back or pretends not to know what he was saying. I saw Huckabee being a diplomat while giving an interview in his role as Ambassador to Israel.
Tucker said that the president of Israel had been on Epstein Island – a topic he introduced to slander Israel and feed red meat to the Epstein obsessed internet idiots. Now he’s backtracking like a mofo because Herzog is saying he’s going to sue for the lies.
Tucker said Christians were treated better in muslim countries than Israel – which is a lie from hell on the backs of hundreds of millions of dead, raped, enslaved Christians. He specifically cited Qatar (where he has a house). Qatar has lots of Christian migrant workers because Qatar needs them to do all the work while the muslim Arabs get paid oil revenues. As for being treated well they are monitored at all times and are “allowed” to attend church in building designated, monitored, and fully controlled by the Qatari government. They have no rights or freedoms are low paid wage slaves like our migrant fruit pickers in the US.
The most disgusting thing was Tucker saying he wouldn’t kill 14 year olds – about Israel and Gaza to get back Israeli women and children or even his own daughters. So, Tucker thinks it’s ok to kidnap and kill or rape women and children. And he’s such a pacifist that’s he’d rather his three daughters be held and raped daily by Palestinians than kill teenagers in Gaza that are armed and fighting. Or he’s a disgusting filthy liar that has no soul.
Funny thing is I never liked Huckabee, don’t give a crap about Israel generally, and was meh on Tucker. But boy were we watching different interviews.
Carlson is a phoney, and a liar, you point that out well.
I was referring to Carlson claiming to be held and interrogated in Israel after that interview. Which was revealed as not what Carlson said it was.
As to Mike Huckabee being a shill for Israel, ridiculous on many levels. But thank you for showing me who you are.
Let’s just admit it. Tucker is the guy we all wanted to beat the crap out of in High School
All communication is monitored.
Tucker is a puppet, now playing a part in another Limited Hangout theater.
Oh Tucker would have a fit if they got him that way. 🤣
Wonder if locating the mullahs and clerics of the Iran regime that are fleeing to Canada would pay the same.
Tucker’s January 4th text messages – 2 days before Trump was set-up for January 6th is all I need to know about Tucker.
“We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,”
“I truly can’t wait.”
“I hate him passionately”
“That’s the last four years. We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There isn’t really an upside to Trump.”
And supposed MAGAs are up in arms that an anti-MAGA, who pretended to be MAGA, is now a questionable MAGA? (Looking at you, Tucker)
Lots of dirty never Trumpers hiding all over the place, pretending to support President Trump — while stabbing the United States in the back — for a buck.
Funny how all the MAGA people forget how much Tucker loathed him. It was never hidden and visceral for Tucker.
Remember most “journalists” hated Trump because of their partisan politics. Tucker hated Trump because he saw him as a low class upstart moving into the realm of his betters. People from Tucker’s background/neighborhoods view Donald Trump as trashy.
Tucker was also all in on saying Biden really won until it became more profitable or gave him more access to the MAGA wing of the right by changing what he believed.
He was Never MAGA. And Megain was never forgiven for her presumption that she could take out Trump during that debate. Candass? Was never a Christian and never MAGA as well. Her fruit is rotten.
Yet they squealing about America First as if they themselves started the movement.
Tucker?
Who Cares?
Must be desperate not to become
Tucker Who?
They monitored Tucker when he interviewed Putin and tried to stop that interview.
yes but NOW its a war for israel. the final trump base pivots and ignores the cognitive dissonance. thus playing out a long-understood principle: israel support is the achilles heel of the right.
“Yabbbut”
Even more tiresome is trying to somehow tie President Trump’s decision to end a 47 year long war on the world by a hostile regime.; a regime that used those years driving the cost of energy movement to artificially high levels through a constant threat of closing the Straight of Hormuz whenever they felt froggy; a regime that spent that artificially high revenue terrorizing its neighbors and western nations, to that of Israel’s bidding.
You’re right… except you’re missing the part about Trump pushing for a negotiated, long-term, Obama-free, U.S.-heavy agreement… and jumped right to the bombing part.
I seem to recall President Trump pushed very hard during his first term in office for a “negotiated, long-term, Obama-free, U.S.-heavy agreement” and peace in the Middle East, and went so far as to get the Abraham Accords in place.
President Trump hardly jumped right into bombing; he has been working for peace in the region throughout his Presidency, and is now dealing with those who want nothing more than to see all Americans and all Israelis dead.

“President Trump hardly jumped right into bombing”
I didn’t say Trump jumped right into bombing… I’m saying Alleycats’ comment jumped right into bombing, totally ignoring Trump’s earnest efforts not only over his many years in office, but (most importantly) over the past year-plus.
It’s an uncomfortable fact that Israel dragged the U.S. into the 12-day war last summer… that’s according to the United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Not my opinion, that was his opinion. And he’s no light-weight when it comes to publicly-stated opinions on World Affairs.
Now… lessee… what are the odds that happened again? Only once? Just a special case? A weird coincidental one-off? It was inevitable anyway, so who cares?
You see, if you just ignore the years of intense diplomacy with, about, and against Iran, not to mention Trump’s innate ability to push the rhetorical envelope on such matters… and you just ignore all that and jump to the bombing part… then there are a bunch of uncomfortable realities one doesn’t have to confront.
While I think Tucker should’ve assumed after the Putin/NSA incident, that his communications were always being tapped & would continue to be…
It is not ok to take a move straight out of the OBiden Admin playbook– & threaten him with FARA violations for trying to set up an interview.
You don’t have to agree with his beliefs or opinions on every topic to see this.
We also should leave this crap of totally condemning outspoken conservative voices we disagree with– on one topic or another, to emotionally reactive Leftists/Democrats.
“condemning outspoken conservative voices we disagree with– on one topic or another, to emotionally reactive Leftists/Democrats”
That ship has sailed, my friend… or was it ever in port to begin with?… one has to wonder…
“You’re either with us. Or you’re against us.”
I totally agree with you.
Everyone was against the censorship when Putin was the enemy.
I can see your point and I reflect on this issue myself.
here is how I consider the issue.
an example: Kelly can try to be cute and suggest *(unauthentically) that he was merely trying to remind military members that it was there own responsibility to refuse unlawful orders.
but we really know what that was about. it was developed along with slotkin (is there such a thing as “former” CIA), as a psychology salvo directed at the military to create discord, mistrust, and suspicions about the Command in Chief. The fact is this is a crime in the USMJ. One, whether retired or not, is prohibited from making such false claims and then attempt to describe them as merely informing the captain obvious bozo the clown narrative. We know exactly why he and those other intelligence types made the video and sent it aimed perfectly at disrupting good order and discipline and it was not to remind about some moral duty.
when you step back, the military has this regulation to prohibit such insubordination because it creates unnecessary and deleterious effects on the military, and its leadership. It is perfectly normal to have doubts and suspicions, but when you launch these personal views as a weapon based on zero evidence that the President or Hegseth have issued ANY SUCH UNLAWFUL orders, that is not acceptable. It is in fact a crime.
now lets take that example and move it to another yet somewhat different circumstance
a. a journalist…not a military member
b. a US citizen
c. has contacts with a US adversary, that is specifically calling for the complete destruction of the US and Israel and has the means to do so.
d. receives (allegedly) quite a sum of money from foreign state actors that promote anti US, anti Israel “news” and distortions of facts.
e. has refused to reveal whether or not he is paid to interview certain people.
f. repeatedly stated he hates President Trump and the entire MAGA movement.
g. suddenly (money from foreign actors?) reverses his profile and now supports President Trump and MAGA.
the effects are similar, but from a “civilian” tangent. Not insignificant at all.
so yes, I am not in favor of criminalizing a journalist who would want to report facts from “the other side”.
but is the motive to do so, funded to move a narrative that supports directly foreign states and actors who would want the US to fail, this President to fail, and the MAGA movement to divide itself so that the regular good ole boys of the republican party can go back to business as usual ?
Kelly and Tucker have that in common. Both have a motive that is not to be trusted. It’s not journalism. It’s paid media on issues that impact hearts and minds from within. there is a very fine line between that and reporting inconvenient and embarrassing facts. Done well, it’s impossible to distinguish.
but neither Kelly or Tucker are doing well at making the distinctions …
we see them for who they are and the why is becoming increasingly obvious.
God Bless America
As usual your ability to use words to cast a perfect photo cut into 1000 puzzle pieces come into full view.
What an amazing talent R.
I have considered Tucker, Kelly and Owens were all removed from their former positions for reasons of a strategic narrative. They were placed outside the wire to allow an operational freedom using guerrilla style tactic not available inside established corporate structures.
Their current special operations style journalism provides a plausible deniability avoiding confrontations with advertisers and political allies. Just thinking out loud.
What has happened with Carlson? I’ve read multiple times about supposed large amounts of $$$ he gets from Qatar. Why? And why would anyone want to establish comms with Iran’s death cult ghouls (assuming those comms are with regime figures)???
What happened to him? Two others manifesting weirdness are Candace Olson and Megyn Kelly.
Who gets what from Qatar?
Did he receive a Qatar 747 as a gift?
No bias, only one question following your query and the assumption of receiving large payments from Qatar…
No doubt Mr. Carlson is bothering AIPAC, not FARA.
Oh will you oppositional jerks just stop, we know you are infiltrating to cause grief, we have your number, we’re not stupid, just stop and go away
The country is the recipient, doo-doo.
PDJT already has his own – complete with gold plated faucets, etc. He’s already well accustomed to luxury. Libbys, on the other hand, are the grifters, the wannabees, envious, covetous.
Anonymous sources say the Qatari 747 has been appriased at $479.95 by totally independent aircraft appraisers from TEMU.
Worth noting: I am open to accept a totally string-free gift from Qatar and I promise not to do anything in return. I am a man of my word. You can take my word for it.
Tucker hated Trump. His text messages about Trump in January 2021 say another about his views. Megain tried to take Trump out during rhe 2016 debates. Candass was never one of us. Just said the right things to grift.
They were anti Trump till they figured out they needed to try and stay relevant.
Tucker Carlson has always been part of the deep state. His father was in the CIA. Tucker praises Islamists and Tucker insults President Trump and said that ‘Unconditional Surrender’ means that OUR troops can rape Iranian women. Our troops are the best people in the world! Tucker Carlson is a SICK B*stard!
Yes, the IC does spy on Americans and it’s ILLEGAL.
Tucker Carlson is lying to destroy President Trump so we lose the midterms.
Frankly, I’m shocked that Sundance doesn’t mention how disgusting Tucker Carlson is.
Pseudo conservatives and Communists that are intentionally trying to break MAGA:
Tucker Carlson
MeAgain Kelly
Ben Shapiro
Candy ‘wacko’ Owens
Steve Bannon
The Murdoch’s
Mark Levin
Demoncrats
CAIR inc.
Israeli politicians
China the CCP
The EU
UK
Canadian politicians
…and MSM plus commie liberal podcasters and Pseudo conservative podcasts that call themselves ‘influencers’ (another words to brainwash Americans).
I am voting Republican in the midterms because that’s what the uniparty DOESN’T want.
I don’t want war but I will ALWAYS support and pray for our troops to be safe and that they succeed in their mission and crush the Iranian regime. Our troops are the reason we can sleep at night. President Trump needs to deport all Islamists terrorists out of our country.
President Trump has the weight of the world on his shoulders. He is fixing the rot that ALL modern day Presidents , the uniparty and the IC created.
God Bless our troops, President Donald J Trump and the United States of America.
All of the names above, and you can add Nick Fuentes, are GOPe shills trying to destroy MAGA so the Sea Island crew can be back in charge. It’s 2010 – destroy the Tea Party – all over again.
Thune
Exactly.
Add in Massie, R Paul, Fmr Rep MTG, Mike Flynn, Liz Cokin, Emerald Whatever (Robinson?), and Jack Posobiec.
Everyone should vote Republican no matter how disgusting so many are. When the Democrats get the Whitehouse, House, and Senate again they will pack Scotus and eliminate most our rights and persecute the opposition.
A full-on communist putsch has always been the plan and they are very close to getting it.
First the Dems, then the RINOs
I’ve never been one to “follow” any breed of pundit. They either are serving their own cloaked agendas, or are the (knowing or unknowing) instrument of other forces. This goes for both reputable and disreputable journalists.
For this reason, the only sort of public commentary I ve utilized is what used to be called “opinion journalism”. The commenter puts out their own views and the reader or viewer weighs credibility.
I assumed Tucker was at least a somewhat sane “opinion journalist”. But this guy has so much going on, both from a personal mental state, to the many hidden agendas he has been shilling for.
I can only assume Tucker has some deeply ingrained personal, probably family humiliation, that he blames on American leadership. I suspect, that as a WASP elitist, he is getting back at those who, he believes, betrayed his class and humiliated his family. The particulars are unknown to me.
Historically, the person he most resembles is the British master spy Kim Philby. Philby believed the Brit ruling class wronged and humiliated his father. Kim spent his professional intelligence life as a secret mole for the Soviet GRU and KGB, within MI6. And when not in top intelligence roles he was an accomplished journalist.
Yes poor Tucker is all over the place in his incoherent commentary.
“Like” “Like” does he really believe that Amalek some obscure passage in the Bible is responsible for what’s going on in Iran today?
I haven’t been able to listen to Tucker since he became fully deranged. Every time he mentions Israel, his voice gets higher and faster as he spews absolute venom. I don’t mind him being anti Israel or anti anything, really. I’m open to hearing different opinions, but he just goes off his rocker every time. He really has a mental problem now. He can’t even carry on a normal conversation anymore.
They always do. It’s weird. There is much to criticize Israel for, but every time a public figure starts to criticize them they spiral into nuttiness and eventually see a Jew behind every bad thing in the world. Got athlete’s foot at the gym – it’s the Jews!
The current manifestation on the right in America is especially egregious because they have spiraled into supporting islam in many cases while islam is currently taking over Africa and Europe and trying to take power in North America.
I could almost take them seriously if they weren’t simping for islam to call out the Jews!
I do not understand why Tucker has chosen to step in it, bigly.
He creates chaos and drama now, which is why I do not listen to even a word he says.
It’s very disappointing, because he is in a position of influence that could be used for good.
He may be a “good man”, father, husband, but it appears all he is doing is sowing discord everywhere.
It’s not helpful.
I’m not saying one should just go along to get along. No. That would be folly. But, one should look at an issue objectively, from all sides, and we are free to state our opinions. He appears to have a narrow view of the conflict, but states his opinions as if gospel. Not interested.
Tc is trying to portray himself as having the same relevance as Julian Assange and Edward Snowden – even throwing in the non-chalant chuckle. Sorry Tucker, you’re just a media hack.
Recall that in 1997 CNN sent journalists Peter Arnett and Peter Bergen to interview Osama bin Laden in an Afghanistan cave. That was the first time that bin Laden declared war on the US on prime time TV. Did the CIA monitor them closely?
Somewhat ironically… or perhaps not “somewhat”… nor “ironic”… the CIA created and nurtured both CNN and Osama bin Laden.
Ice Cream Headache yet?
I’m guessing there’s zero chance of Tucker getting charged with FARA violations. Not because our incompetent DOJ wouldn’t attempt it but no charges will stick.
I have completely eliminated Tucker from my news feed/emails and have shut down any interest in his podcasts. Once he went to the side of pro Islam, that was it for me. Tucker didn’t just go anti Israel/Jew but he went pro Islam. I don’t know what perverted version of Christianity Tucker practices but it’s not a Christianity I believe exists.
Between Tucker/Candice/MTG – they’ve lost their minds for fame, fortune? I don’t know but they have turned into demons.
The Islam is not your enemy and support for the Gaza guys is a WTH do you mean moment.
Sharia Law and the Nation of Islam sure as hell is the enemy of a constitutional republic.
As the massive fraud in America’s domestic welfare programs shows, the Federal government is a cash cow for crooks (and probably politicians who get nice campaign contributions from some (many) of these organizations.
This is not a new problem, but it is a growing problem.
Where are the reviewers, auditors, investigators, and others charged with managing and overseeing these programs?
What does this have to do with Tucker? Not much, but I have started to question which side he’s playing for.
IMO, at a minimum, Tucker has gone off the rails.
I’m more inclined to think that TC is actually a CIA asset and part of what is clearly a concerted effort to inject anti-Semitism into the Conservative movement to split PDJT’s base and Carlson’s claims of being monitored by that Agency now is merely an attempt at CYA.
Note how Conservatives reject shun and ostrasuze their anti-Semites, whereas the Left encourage, embrace and absorb theirs.
Exactly. And there is no bigger act of treason against the US or anti-Christian action than to support islam.
The best meme of the day.
Every body knows living on the edge is dangerous, when it’s politics…. mob mentally rules 9 out of 10 times….
Tucker you are no Bruce Lee… .
Here we go again. First Russia, Qatar now Iran?
Tucker IS America First, he’s not a spy OR a traitor.
Come on now!
Tucker: “there are some people who are mad at me for my views about Israel.”
It really is as simple as that. But even Tucker, in his own analysis, falls into the language trap that has been set.
It is not his views on Israel that got him into trouble, but his views on political zionism. Political zionism, Israel, and Judaism are conflated into a single monolith that political zionism then hides behind. Disagree with political zionism and you are automatically labeled an anti-Semite and anti-Israel. Yes, I know, but I refuse to capitalize it.
At any rate, whether the City of London is controlled by zionist elements, or whether London simply uses the zionists like they use everyone else for London’s own financial benefit, voicing any view that could disrupt the cogs in the machine will get you targeted.
I’m personally disgusted with Tucker because he is promoting lies about islam which is a political death cult of 2 billion people hellbent on killing or enslaving every non-muslim on the planet.
I’m my opinion, we need dissent in our media. Tucker Carlson provides some of that dissent. It’s important. There is no misinformation, mal-formation or dis-information, there is only information that needs to presented and logical reasoning to assimilate or dismiss and form an opinion.
I understand the CIA and NSA have a mission. Neither of their mission are Law Enforcement related.
I get Trump’s geopolitical reasoning behind the Iranian adventure. I also understand that Israel benefits more than the United States does in this adventure. I also get that China is the biggest loser here.
All that said, I agree, we should not be engaged in this war/non war.
With that said, we should finish it ASAP and move on. I don’t need or want another war. I have seen my fair share of it and don’t want my kids to see it for the sake of Israel.
“we should finish it ASAP and move on”
There are three primary players here: Iran, Israel, and the U.S… guess who doesn’t want this war to end? (Hint: it’s the first two)
When Tucker said Iran’s surrender would be permission for our troops to rape the Iranian women, he sunk to a low there is no coming back from IMO.
Seems that Carlson painted a target on his back and am now complaining he was shot at because of it.
Wouldn’t be the first time the CIA was on his back. I believe it was after his interview with Putin in Moscow a few years back when somebody on the inside informed him he was being monitored.
His daddy was CIA and Putin implied something interesting about Tucker and the CIA in their interview. How do we know Tucker isn’t CIA like Anderson Cooper?
Tucker’s even beginning to look like Greta:
“How dare you, Israel!”
Wouldn’t surprise me that the DOJ who couldn’t find a way to prosecute anyone from the Russiagate folks to the FISAgate folks to the numerous fraud cases totaling trillions will now find a way to prosecute someone who helped President Trump get elected twice but has suddenly fallen out of favor. Go figure.
Carlson has seriously lost his way … or maybe this was his way and the previous Carlson was a fraud.
I’m guessing if anyone of us were in contact with Iranian leadership, we’d all be under surveillance immediately – if not worse. Tucker is as always disingenuous.
If I were Tucker, I’d be concerned with how the courts and governments have treated “independent” or non-MSM affiliated “journalists.” Many in alternative media have been targeted and found out they aren’t going to be protected under press freedoms.
Tucker has been playing fast and loose with the truth and then does his cackling “me, I’m just saying” affectation to cover for it.
See his walking back Epstein slander when threatened with a lawsuit, Qatar – who he is funded by and where he bought a house – coming out and saying his reports about the mossad operative in Qatar had no basis in fact, his videos several months apart where he first said Israel is beautiful and then said Israel is ugly and has produced nothing of beauty.
He’s a grifter and has always been a grifter. He has played a different role throughout his 30 years in media. He shifts his persona with where the money is.
forget it.
Tucker is catching hell over a number of issues he has involved himself in. Agreeing with Candace Owens, interviewing Putin, criticizing Israel, criticizing Democrat and Republican congressmen/women. Honestly he isn’t wrong about most of the most controversial issues but he has been sucked into a couple of conspiracy theories that may backfire on him. But for the most part Tucker is certainly doing what a news person should be doing and he is honest and a patriotic American. Having said all that he crossed some lines and criticized “he who may not be criticized” and it wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up in a political legal battle.
According to Nick Fuentes 🤮 Tucker IS cia. I would laugh but he learned the craft from his father who took him to foreign lands while doing ops…Carlson made me sick when he started blaming Israel for everything. Thus I turned him off.
I suggest everyone read this and pull yourselves together. Socrates has never once been wrong in the 15 years I’ve followed it and more than 50 years since Martin Armstrong created it. I really don’t care what your opinions might be because you will be wrong!

One of the first sentences says “Israel’s Iron Dome has failed” Wrong.
https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2023/10/23/israel-not-publishing-iron-dome-performance-data/
Since Israel isn’t publishing the data, which many wouldn’t believe anyway, the published numbers are just estimates. A quick internet search seems to center on 90%. Even Wikedpedia estimates 59-75% and some say 99%. If most opinions are saying the majority of incoming are intercepted, how is that failure?
Another factor is that the Iron Dome is designed to ignore rockets on a course to strike uninhabited areas, so logically those get through, skewing any analysis. If VIAO thinks anything less than 100% is failure, then every single person on this planet and every single product or weapon ever produced is a failure.
Iron Beam – the new laser interceptor – isn’t working well yet. Needs more work to be ready for the nexr go-round.
“Carlson was strongly against the Trump administration taking military action toward Iran and had travelled to the White House to express that opinion to President Trump.”
So after making an overseas call with an Iranian official or connected agent (which the US can legally intercept and use in court), Tucker Carlson contrived to meet/lobby the President, to oppose military action against Iran.
My guess: Carlson had zero intent to “represent” Iran in the sense governed by FARA, and saw himself as helping Trump, or maybe even opening a back door for communicating with Iran, by sharing his brilliant opinions. He thinks he is an important player, obligated to save the world when he thinks he can. After the fact, he became aware that his actions gave the appearance — perhaps the reality — of violating FARA substantively. So he launched a preventative public defense. Some might say this reflects a guilty conscience. I think it reflects an ego with a reach longer than its grasp.
Two other voices strongly opposed to military engagement with Iran… both within Trump’s immediate policy and political inner circle…
1.) Charlie Kirk — powerful and influential conservative political figure
2.) JD Vance — Vice President of the United States of America
One of those persons is dead.
Presumably the feds should also be tracking Tucker’s financial transactions from overseas. See if there are unexplained large money flows. He does seem to have become unduly sympathetic to Qatar and hostile to the countries Qatar opposes.
Tucker is another guy who never shuts up, hopefully he doesnt go into some kind of mental overload and has to get hauled off to a mental hospital as a babbling medicated mess
Every high level business person or media person who travels outside the US – is monitored and quizzed by the CIA about anything that may be of a national security concern to the US. That has been the case for decades. It is especially the case when the individual meets with high level people in a country with adversarial positions.
Tucker pretending he didn’t know this (his father was CIA and a newsman) is disingenuous.
Further, any US citizen loyal to the US would volunteer information concerning their perception of the friendliness of foreign contacts.
” it would be negligent if the Intelligence Community was not monitoring that communication.”
This is a non-issue designed to generate smoke and nothing else. Either Tucker is trying to garner attention to himself for some upcoming “scoop”, or he’s dog-paddling to remain somewhat relevant in the bigger picture. This is now at least three in a row where he’s screaming “look at me”. (Israel’s TSA is persecuting me, someone stole all the tobacco, the IC is doing IC things).
I don’t know. He seems to be pretty effective at maintaining visibility, though I don’t know how much “there” is there.
Tucker Carlson Suggests President Trump and Top Officials Behind U.S.-Israel Iran Strike Decision Be Thrown in Jail
by Jim Hᴏft Mar. 15, 2026 8:15 am

I’ve always liked Tucker Carlson‘s commentary, but then he certainly gets consumed by his own self-righteousness.
Why does anyone listen to someone who claims they were physically attacked by demons in the middle of the night? Why is anyone trying to analyze the words of someone who desperately needs mental health help.
Although I guess there are many who also believe in aliens, bigfoot, wolfmen, ghosts, and vampires.
Shrinks are trained and paid for it.
Otherwise, I don’t get it…
Is there any doubt who Tucker Al-Qatarlson is working for?
Tucker Carlson is a bigot who takes pride. In his ignorance
Tucker Carlson is a bigot whose public statements aim to spread his bigotry under the guiseof political commentary.
“The louder he talked of his honor the faster we counted the spoons.”
Oh boy…..
