In this powerhouse episode, 1819 News CEO Bryan Dawson sits down with Tucker Carlson for the most explosive and candid conversation ever featured on the podcast. Sparked by a seven-year-old viral clip of Carlson debating Ben Shapiro over driverless trucks, Dawson lays out how that single moment shattered the spell of neoliberal economics and exposed the human cost of deindustrialization, mass immigration, and endless foreign wars. What began as a discussion about jobs and GDP quickly became a full-scale autopsy of the conservative movement's decades-long betrayal of the American working class. Carlson pulls no punches: he traces his own journey from a Weekly Standard neoconservative to the leading voice of America First nationalism, recounting the exact moment in Baghdad in 2003 when he realized he'd been “used” to sell a disastrous war. With unflinching honesty, he admits his past mistakes, explains why he now rejects both libertarian economics and neoconservative foreign policy as “false religions,” and declares that any government not putting its own citizens first has no legitimacy. The conversation then dives into the ongoing civil war inside conservatism—paleocons vs. neocons, Buchanan vs. Buckley 2.0—and why the old gatekeepers are finally losing control thanks to Elon Musk's X. Carlson defends “America First” against decades of deliberate slander, dismantles the weaponized charge of antisemitism used to silence dissent, and warns that unchecked demographic replacement and anti-white discrimination are destroying the country his children will inherit. From the collapse of Kevin Roberts at Heritage to the rise of Nick Fuentes among a generation of angry young men, Carlson and Dawson confront the uncomfortable truths the establishment refuses to face: the American people have been lied to, sold out, and humiliated—and they've finally had enough. A raw, unfiltered, and deeply Christian case for putting America—and Americans—first. If you care about the future of this nation, this is the one episode you cannot miss.

SHOW 11-12-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1930 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT CHINA'S LEADERSHIP. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Allied AI Competition and Submarine Requests. Scott Harold examines the crucial role of allies Japan and South Korea in the AI competition against China. Japan is developing locally tailored AI models built on US technology for use in Southeast Asia. South Korea aims to become the third-largest AI power, offering reliable models to counter China's untrustworthy technology. Harold also discusses South Korea's surprising request for nuclear-powered, conventionally armed submarines to track Chinese and North Korean vessels, signaling a greater public willingness to contribute to China deterrence. 915-930 Rare Earths Monopoly and US Strategy. General Blaine Holt discusses China's challenge to the US and its allies regarding rare earths, noting that China previously threatened to cut off supply. The US is securing deals with partners like Australia and is on track to replace China entirely, despite initial processing reliance on Chinese predatory practices. Holt suggests a two-year recovery is conservative, as technology for domestic processing exists. He also notes China's leadership is in turmoil, trying to buy time through trade deals. 930-945 Russian Economic Stagnation and War Finance. Michael Bernstam confirms that the Russian economy is stagnating, expecting no growth for years due to exhausted resources and reliance on military production. Oil and gas revenues are down significantly due to Western sanctions and high discounts, widening the budget deficit. Russia is increasing taxes, including the VAT, which drives inflation in staples. This economic pain damages the popularity of the war by hurting the low-income population—the primary source of military recruitment. 945-1000 Buckley, Fusionism, and Conservative Integrity. Peter Berkowitz explores William F. Buckley's consolidation of the conservative movement through "fusionism"—blending limited government and social conservatism. Buckley purged the movement of anti-Semites based on core principles. Berkowitz uses this historical context to analyze the controversy surrounding Tucker Carlson giving a platform to Nick Fuentes, who openly celebrates Stalin and Hitler. This incident caused division after the Heritage Foundation's president, Kevin Roberts, defended Carlson, prompting Roberts to issue an apology. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Commodity Markets and UK Political Instability. Simon Constable analyzes rare earth markets, noting China's dominance is achieved through undercutting prices and buying out competitors. Prices for key industrial commodities like copper and aluminum are up, indicating high demand. Constable also discusses UK political instability, noting that Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer lacks natural leadership and confidence. The major political driver for a potential leadership change is the party's broken promise regarding income taxes, which severely undermines public trust before the next election, 1015-1030 Commodity Markets and UK Political Instability.

Carola Binder discusses the Austrian School of Economics, highlighting its focus on free markets and Ludwig von Mises's opposition to government "interventionism," including rent and price controls. Mises argued these policies distort markets, leading to shortages and inefficiency. Binder emphasizes Mises's belief that economic literacy is a primary civic duty necessary for citizens to reject socialism and interventionist panaceas, especially as new generations are exposed to such ideas. 1045-1100 Austrian Economics, Von Mises, and the Fight Against Interventionism.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Philippine Missile Deployment to Deter China. Captain Jim Fanell reports that the Philippines unveiled its first operational BrahMos anti-ship cruise missile battery in western Luzon to deter Chinese aggression. This supersonic missile system, part of the $7.2 billion Reorizon 3 modernization program, gives the Philippines "skin in the game" near disputed waters like Scarborough Shoal. The deployment signifies a strategy to turn the Philippines into a "porcupine," focusing defense on the West Philippine Sea. The systems are road-mobile, making them difficult to target. 1115-1130 AI, Cyber Attacks, and Nuclear Deterrence. Peter Huessy discusses the challenges to nuclear deterrence posed by AI and cyber intrusions. General Flynn highlighted that attacks on satellites, the backbone of deterrence, could prevent the US from confirming where a launch originated. Huessy emphasizes the need to improve deterrence, noting that the US likely requires presidential authorization for retaliation, unlike potential Russian "dead hand" systems. The biggest risk is misinformation delivered by cyber attacks, although the US maintains stringent protocols and would never launch based solely on a computer warning. 1130-1145 Sudan Civil War, Global Proxies, and Nigerian Violence. Caleb Weiss and Bill Roggio analyze the civil war in Sudan between the SAF and the RSF, noting both factions commit atrocities, including massacres after the capture of El Fasher. The conflict is fueled by opposing global coalitions: the UAE and Russia support the RSF, while Iran, Egypt, and Turkey back the SAF. The Islamic State has called for foreign jihadis to mobilize. Weiss also addresses the complicated violence in Nigeria, differentiating jihadist attacks on Christians from communal farmer-herder conflict. 1145-1200 Sudan Civil War, Global Proxies, and Nigerian Violence.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Corruption, Chinese Influence, and Protests in Serbia. Ivana Stradner discusses protests in Serbia demanding accountability one year after a canopy collapse killed 16 people, with investigations linking the accident to high-level corruption involving a Chinese company. Leader Vučić suppresses discontent by alleging the West is plotting a "color revolution." Although Vučić aligns his heart with Russia and China, he needs EU money for political survival, prompting him to offer weapons to the West and claim Serbia is on the EU path. 1215-1230 The Muslim Brotherhood and Its Global Network. Cliff May discusses the Muslim Brotherhood (MB), the progenitor of Hamas, founded in 1928 after the Ottoman Caliphate's abolition. The MB's goal is to establish a new Islamic empire. Qatar is highly supportive, hosting Hamas leaders, while the UAE and Saudi Arabia have banned the MB. Turkish President Erdoğan is considered MB-adjacent and sympathetic, supporting Hamas and potentially viewing himself as a future Caliph, despite Turkey being a NATO member. 1230-1245 Commercial Space Records and Political Impacts on NASA. Bob Zimmerman covers new records in commercial space: SpaceX achieved 147 launches this year, and one booster tied the Space Shuttle Columbia for 28 reuses. China also set a record with 70 launches but had a failure. Commercial space faced temporary impacts, such as an FAA launch curfew due to a government shutdown and air traffic controller shortages. Zimmerman speculates that Jared Isaacman's conservative-leaning public appearance at Turning Point USA might have convinced Trump to renominate him for NASA Administrator. 1245-100 AM Commercial Space Records and Political Impacts on NASA.

Tucker Carlson remains at the center of conservative media attention following a series of high-profile interviews and controversies in recent days. Most notably, Carlson has continued to grow his independent media platform, “The Tucker Carlson Show,” which now reaches millions on YouTube, Facebook, and X. Last week, he aired an in-depth interview focusing on the Armenian political crisis, featuring Narek Karapetyan—the nephew of imprisoned Armenian philanthropist Samvel Karapetyan—and Karapetyan's attorney, Bob Amsterdam. During the 80-minute segment, Carlson strongly criticized Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, alleging an assault on the Armenian Apostolic Church and accusing Pashinyan of authoritarian tactics. The interview rapidly spread across social media, with millions of views on X and significant engagement on other platforms. Pashinyan's allies attempted to discredit Carlson by suggesting that the interview was paid for, though these claims have not been substantiated and were dismissed by those involved.Simultaneously, Carlson has generated major backlash for broadcasting a lengthy, friendly interview with Nick Fuentes, a figure widely recognized for white nationalist, antisemitic, and extremist views. Fuentes used Carlson's platform to amplify several controversial positions, including antisemitic stereotypes about “organized Jewry in America” and expressing admiration for Joseph Stalin, who orchestrated deaths of millions, including many Jews. The episode sparked immediate and significant condemnation, even from within conservative ranks. Prominent Republicans, such as Senator Lindsey Graham at the Republican Jewish Coalition meeting, publicly distanced themselves from the ideologies expressed, with Graham joking that he belongs to the “Hitler-sucks wing of the Republican Party.” Jewish advocacy groups and numerous commentators warned that Carlson's interview represented a normalization of antisemitism and extremist rhetoric.The controversy has caused turmoil at the influential Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank behind Project 2025. Heritage's president, Kevin Roberts, initially defended Tucker Carlson, calling him a close friend and decrying efforts to “cancel” him. This defense attributed criticism of Carlson to “slander” and a “venomous coalition,” but was met with internal dissent and public criticism. Some Heritage Foundation staff, prominent donors, and allies objected to Roberts' statements, arguing that defending Carlson overlooked the seriousness of providing a platform to extremist voices. Senior research fellow Robert Rector and other members stated that such figures must be actively pushed out for the movement's credibility. The backlash led to the disaffiliation of leaders from the Foundation's antisemitism task force and prompted Roberts to release an apology asserting he did not know much about Fuentes and recognizing his handling of the situation as a mistake, but refusing to step down as president.In response to criticisms about the Fuentes interview and his approach to controversial guests, Tucker Carlson sat for an interview with Megyn Kelly. When Kelly challenged him on why he hadn't confronted Fuentes on his history of hateful statements, Carlson responded dismissively, telling Kelly to “buzz off” and suggesting that those who disagreed with his editorial choices could interview Fuentes themselves. This exchange was widely discussed, highlighting Carlson's refusal to adopt a more conventional broadcast approach of pressing extremist guests on their past comments.Beyond these immediate controversies, Carlson remains a vocal critic of perceived surveillance state tendencies, with commentary on platforms like X involving the Trump administration's technology partnerships—such as with Palantir—drawing attention from supporters across the right and further tying him to debates around privacy, civil liberties, and state power.Carlson's current influence on the broader media and political landscape remains substantial. His willingness to engage fringe or inflammatory figures has escalated calls within conservative circles to more clearly define their boundaries regarding extremism and antisemitism. At the same time, some supporters frame ongoing criticism of Carlson as an attack on free speech and an attempt by establishment forces to constrain grassroots conservative discourse.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast and don't forget to subscribe.

Did you know illegal immigrants are included in the U.S. Census? Since the 1960's, the Left has been abusing the Constitution by counting illegal immigrants in the data that impacts our congressional maps and even presidential elections. Kevin Roberts and Larry O'Connor break down why exactly this is a problem and how it affects everything from power […]

On a quiet April morning in 2023, the Heritage Foundation released a staggering 900-page document titled Project 2025, a blueprint that would soon pulse through think tanks and campaign war rooms. Billed as a “Mandate for Leadership,” Project 2025 lays out an unprecedented roadmap for transforming the federal government in the event of a Republican administration, leaving no department untouched and no norm unquestioned.At its center is a bold vision: bring the entire executive branch under direct presidential command. Quoting the Heritage Foundation's Kevin Roberts, “all federal employees should answer to the president.” To achieve this, Project 2025 proposes to overhaul the doctrine of separation between agencies like the Department of Justice, the FBI, and the Federal Communications Commission. Kiron Skinner, who co-authored parts of the plan, argues that leadership at the State Department should be swept clean and restaffed with more loyal, ideologically vetted officials, sidestepping Senate confirmation when possible. She told CNN last June that seasoned diplomats were simply “too left-wing” to implement conservative policy, though she struggled to name examples of open resistance.One of Project 2025's most controversial elements is Schedule F, a personnel mechanism designed to undo decades-old civil service protections. The idea is simple and dramatic: reclassify key federal positions to allow political firing and hiring at will. Without these protections, career staff could be ousted en masse and replaced by partisan loyalists. According to a recent Office of Personnel Management memo, every agency has been instructed to draft plans for a “significant reduction in the number of full-time positions” and to “consolidate management layers where unnecessary layers exist.” The Department of Government Efficiency—led by Elon Musk in collaboration with President Trump—has already executed some of these plans in chaotic fashion, abolishing entire agencies such as the Consumer Financial Protection Board and Voice of America before court rulings temporarily reinstated their staff.The impact stretches far beyond personnel charts. Project 2025 recommends dissolving the federal Education Department, closing or consolidating Agriculture field offices, and stripping the IRS's Office of Civil Rights and Compliance to a skeletal staff. These moves are justified, according to the project's authors, by the goal of eliminating inefficiency and rooting out what they see as a pervasive liberal bias. Former Trump Justice Department official Gene Hamilton, who helped pen Project 2025's justice chapter, contends that the DOJ has “forfeited the trust” of the American people, pledging to prosecute any state or private employer with “DEI or affirmative action programs.” He calls it a fight against “anti-white racism,” intentionally invoking the language of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.There has been vocal opposition. The American Federation of Government Employees warns the plan could terminate up to one million federal jobs, with ripple effects on community services nationwide. The ACLU and other civil rights groups have sounded alarms, describing the project as a threat to democratic norms and checks on executive power. Nonetheless, Project 2025's architects remain steadfast. In a statement to Politico, a Heritage Foundation spokesperson declared, “Simply put: we are seeking to mainstream the most transformational conservative policies in half a century.”Central to the project is a “Day One playbook,” a stack of ready-to-sign executive orders meant to kickstart reforms within hours of a new administration. Experts tracking these developments for the Center for Progressive Reform note that this approach risks not just instability but also legal battles, as rapid agency closures have already prompted emergency court injunctions and union pushback.With the presidential inauguration looming and deadlines set for agency downsizing plans, the coming weeks will be decisive. Supporters claim that Project 2025 is the turning point America needs to reclaim government from entrenched interests. Critics believe it is an existential gamble with the nation's institutions at stake.Project 2025 is no ordinary policy document; it is a living plan, already reshaping Washington's corridors and inspiring fierce debate across the country. As the nation braces for its next chapter, the fate of these sweeping reforms will hinge on upcoming court decisions, agency reckonings, and, ultimately, the will of the American people.Thank you for tuning in, and be sure to come back next week for more.Some great Deals https://amzn.to/49SJ3QsFor more check out http://www.quietplease.aiThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

"2025 has been a pretty interesting year for the auto industry," says Kevin Roberts with CarGurus. He has a particular interest in the used car market, noticing a rise in vehicle sales under $30,000 and/or with cars seven years or older. Kevin sees similar trends in the EV space after the Trump administration axed the EV tax credits. With interest rates remaining high and new vehicle prices increasing, he says it's critical a middle ground forms to draw prospective car buyers toward new vehicles.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

After 40 days in the wilderness, eight Senate Democrats see the light and take steps to bring the longest government shutdown in history to an end … President Trump pardons 77 allies involved in various aspects of the Alternate Electors episode … President Trump keeps pushing for Senate Republicans to nuke the filibuster, but they keep pushing back, just as hard … what is up with Tucker Carlson, Kevin Roberts, and Nick Fuentes? … all this and more.

Tucker Carlson has been at the center of controversy after his recent podcast interview with Nick Fuentes, a figure known for neo-Nazi views and Holocaust denial. That episode, which aired last week and has drawn millions of views on Carlson's independent platform, has sparked intense backlash from across the political spectrum. Jewish organizations, Republican officials, and even MAGA activists have condemned Carlson for giving Fuentes airtime and failing to challenge his antisemitic and extremist rhetoric. Matt Brooks, head of the Republican Jewish Coalition, stated bluntly that Carlson has “lost his mind.” The episode also generated heated criticism from Congressman Jamie Raskin, who called Carlson's segments with Holocaust deniers a grotesque attempt to whitewash genocide.Carlson responded publicly to the uproar on Megyn Kelly's show, brushing aside the criticism and saying he's uninterested in what people think of his editorial choices. He told Kelly that if anyone wants to challenge Fuentes themselves, he will gladly give them Fuentes' number, emphasizing that his show will not be controlled by outside critics.This controversy has had ripple effects among conservative institutions. The Heritage Foundation, historically allied with Carlson, faced internal turmoil when its president, Kevin Roberts, defended him. That defense led to resignations among Heritage staff, especially those working on its antisemitism task force. The debate at Heritage reflects a wider split within the conservative movement regarding Carlson's growing association with fringe voices, pushing some to call for leadership changes at the Foundation.Meanwhile, Carlson's media platform continues to grow in reach. His podcast, the Tucker Carlson Show, regularly attracts over a million views per episode, and his YouTube channel has nearly five million subscribers. Carlson is still a featured speaker at high-profile events, including Turning Point USA's AmericaFest in December. This has prompted some donors to threaten withdrawal, signaling how divisive he has become, even within core MAGA circles.In addition to the Fuentes episode, Carlson recently released a lengthy documentary and podcast focused on Armenia's Christian identity, the Armenian Genocide, and alleged religious persecution in modern Armenia. He called attention to what he views as a global war on Christianity, linking current events in Armenia to larger trends in religious repression worldwide. This episode was praised in some quarters for raising awareness about a largely overlooked crisis, though critics argue that Carlson's message amplifies sectarian conflict.Carlson's influence remains significant, particularly among young conservatives and online audiences. His voice shapes debates around nationalism, immigration, and foreign policy, and he continues to challenge conventional conservative positions, including support for Israel and interventionism. At the same time, his willingness to provide a platform for extremist views has provoked concern about the normalization of hate speech and conspiracy theories, with progressive leaders arguing that Carlson's rhetoric constitutes a threat to democratic norms.There have been no major legal updates regarding Carlson himself, and he maintains an active role in media and public debate. Prominent media figures, such as Ben Shapiro, have publicly criticized Carlson for what they see as irresponsible journalism and platforming harmful ideologies, while others within the conservative movement debate his lasting political impact and future direction.Thank you for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

Andrew Day, Sumantra Maitra, and Joseph Addington discuss the election night "blue-bath" and whether the GOP must transform to survive. Then, they discuss Kevin Roberts' defense of Tucker Carlson from attacks over an interview with Nick Fuentes. Recorded November 5, 2025.

Last week, the Holocaust-denying, white nationalist influencer Nick Fuentes sat down with former Fox News host turned podcaster Tucker Carlson on The Tucker Carlson Show, where the two discussed Fuentes's trajectory, the evolution of his “America First” ideology, and the ways his rejection of the neoconservative common sense on Israel put him at odds with parts of the right-wing establishment. For many, Carlson's seeming embrace of Fuentes on his popular show signaled a shift, a recognition that what was once taboo on the right has arrived in the mainstream. Cementing the sense of a sea change, Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, the right-wing think tank that has crafted many of Donald Trump's most destructive policies, refused to disavow or scold Carlson, saying in a video that criticism of Israel is not antisemitism. He asserted that Americans should support Israel as long as Israel's action are in American interests—and that there is no obligation to support Israel if they are not. (Since this taping, he has had to walk back this statement, particularly the use of the phrase “venomous coalition” to describe those trying to “cancel” Carlson over the interview with Fuentes.) That same week, far-right talk show host Candace Owens, dismissed from her Daily Wire post over antisemitism, sat down with left-wing former academic and Palestine advocate Norman Finkelstein. In a conversation laced with Owens's many antisemitic conspiracy theories, they attempted to find common ground. In this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents editor-in-chief Arielle Angel and publisher Daniel May are joined by Ben Lorber, researcher of antisemitism and white nationalism, and Andrew Marantz, a New Yorker writer who profiled Carlson last year. They discussed the uncomfortable resonances between right and left anti-Zionism in this moment, and the even more disturbing antisemitic, white and Christian nationalist divergences.

This week, Scott sat down with co-hosts emeritus Benjamin Wittes and Alan Rozenshtein, and Senior Editor Kate Klonick, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Cracks in the Foundation.” The conservative Heritage Foundation—and the broader conservative movement it plays a central role in—has been going through a very public crisis over the past week after its president, Kevin Roberts, came to the defense of right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson after Carlson chose to host white nationalist Nick Fuentes on his podcast. This has led to resignations at the Heritage Foundation, condemnation by certain figures on the right, and a pseudo apology by Roberts. It has also led to a little bit of a reckoning over how some on the right, and to some extent Americans more broadly, have dealt with accusations of anti-Semitism, its relationship to various policy questions, as well as hate speech and other political perspectives. What should we be making of this crisis and what does it tell us about the different policy aspects that intersect with this question of anti-Semitism?“Turning Back the Clock.” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent promised that President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping would “consummate” a TikTok deal at their face-to-face last week. But no details have emerged to date. What should we make of this apparent hold-up—and of the TikTok saga altogether? “A Foe By Any Other Name.” As the Trump administration has continued its military campaign against narcotics traffickers in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, U.S. officials have continued to draw parallels between current policies and the Global War on Terrorism, calling detainees “unlawful enemy combatants” and the groups being targeted “designated terrorist organizations.” “If you are a narco-terrorist…,” Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth recently tweeted in relation to one of the strikes, “we will treat you like we treat Al-Qaeda.” But how accurate are these parallels, and why is the Trump administration deploying them in this way?In object lessons, Ben brings you a little announcement that is shorter than this sentence—you're just going to have to listen to find out. Alan, hungry for more genre fiction, is diving into The Divine Cities trilogy, starting with “City of Stairs,” by Robert Jackson Bennett. Scott is going out of this world with what he calls “the nerdiest object lesson” he's ever brought to RatSec: Pioneer, a tabletop role-playing game that has “launched” on Kickstarter.

Tucker Carlson remains at the center of national controversy following his recent podcast interview with Nick Fuentes, a far-right activist known for antisemitic commentary and praise of Adolf Hitler. The interview drew immediate backlash, with critics highlighting Carlson's decision not to challenge or push back on several of Fuentes's inflammatory statements. Notably, Carlson himself made his own critical remarks about Christian Zionists during their discussion, calling Christian Zionism a “brain virus” and labeling it a heresy. This has deepened debates about shifting attitudes toward Israel and Jewish Americans within the conservative movement, fueling a growing rift in Republican circles, as reported by the Associated Press and The Economic Times.The fallout extended to the Heritage Foundation, a major conservative think tank long associated with Carlson, when its president Kevin Roberts released a video defending Carlson's decision to platform Fuentes. Roberts emphasized the need for open debate, saying efforts to “cancel” Carlson would not succeed, but his stance triggered outrage from within Heritage, as well as from Republican senators and Jewish leaders from both parties. The leadership of a right-wing antisemitism task force attached to Heritage reported that Roberts had since apologized for how he handled the issue, but organizations like the Young Jewish Conservatives resigned in protest. A Jewish Insider report noted that this has complicated Republican attempts to cast Democrats as the sole party with antisemitism problems.Conservatives across the spectrum remain divided on how to approach Carlson's evolving role. Some voices, like Hoover Institution's Victor Davis Hanson on Newsmax, said Carlson failed in his journalistic duty by not pushing back against misinformation or hate speech from guests like Fuentes. Christian and pro-Israel activists have criticized what they see as Carlson providing an unchecked platform for conspiracy theories and revisionist history, especially since the launch of the Tucker Carlson Network and his podcast, now an influential but polarizing media presence.Despite the backlash, Carlson continues to be an in-demand commentator, speaking at Turning Point USA events and engaging in high-profile interviews. In breaking news, Armenian and Russian media report that Carlson is set to interview Narek Karapetyan, a leader of the “Our Way” (Mer Dzevov) movement and nephew of political prisoner Samvel Karapetyan. The upcoming interview focuses on Armenia's ongoing “national liberation struggle” and is drawing attention internationally, especially after rumors circulated that the Karapetyan family might have paid for the appearance. Both Carlson and Armenian movement spokespersons deny any payment, attributing the interview to mutual interest.Financial reports have also emerged, claiming that the Heritage Foundation had previously spent over $1 million sponsoring Carlson's show, highlighting his continued connections to influential institutions. Throughout all this, Carlson has not publicly commented on the current wave of criticism, nor has he responded to reports about whether lobbying or financial considerations influenced his programming choices.The debates swirling around Carlson's recent actions continue to spark broader discussions about the direction of American conservatism, the boundaries of free speech in media, and the ongoing intersections of antisemitism, politics, and partisan identity. Some see him as exposing divisions within the right on foreign policy and social issues, while others warn that his platforming of figures like Fuentes legitimizes extreme voices and erodes longstanding conservative alliances.Thanks for tuning in and be sure to subscribe to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast to stay updated on these fast-moving stories.

Noah Rothman joins Scot Bertram for a conversation about the state of the conservative movement. Rothman takes aim at Kevin Roberts's arguments, labeling them “bad faith” because they distract from serious policy and principle. At the same time, he argues that Donald Trump's continued dominance is not helping the right cohere or move forward, his rhetoric and influence may be undermining conservative credibility just when it matters most.

Jen and Noam discuss the Great Reckoning taking place in conservative circles due to the Carlson-Fuentes interview, the fallout from that, Heritage Foundation president (for now) Kevin Roberts' defense of Carlson, and the fallout from that.  Also, is acknowledging antisemitism the new land acknowledgement? Are all opinions equally valid and worthy of debate? Is MAGA speedrunning its own version of wokeness? 

Tucker Carlson is at the center of intense national controversy after his recent high-profile interview with white nationalist Nick Fuentes. The interview, which aired on Carlson's independently run streaming show, has ignited a firestorm within conservative circles as well as broader political and media communities. Florida Republican Congressman Randy Fine became the most outspoken critic at the Republican Jewish Coalition's annual leadership conference, publicly labeling Carlson as “the most dangerous antisemite in America” and accusing him of promoting Holocaust denial, supporting those who “celebrate the Nazis,” and defending Hamas. During his remarks, Fine said he was canceling a scheduled Heritage Foundation event in protest and called on other Republicans to do the same, vowing to block Heritage staffers from his office and urging colleagues to follow suit.The Heritage Foundation's response has only deepened divisions. Its president, Kevin Roberts, released a video refusing to distance the influential think tank from Carlson. Roberts dismissed critics as a “venomous coalition” and insisted their efforts to cancel Carlson would fail, even though he and the foundation officially condemned Fuentes's antisemitic ideology. This stance drew significant backlash, including criticism from Heritage staff, Republican senators, and Jewish leaders in both parties. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the Heritage statement “deeply disturbing,” and Mitch McConnell pointedly stated that “conservatives should feel no obligation to carry water for antisemites and apologists for America-hating autocrats.” Heritage has since reassigned its chief of staff in reaction to the controversy, signaling ongoing internal turmoil.This latest uproar follows a series of recent interviews where Carlson has platformed figures who espouse Holocaust denial and anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. Just weeks prior, Carlson's discussion with amateur historian Darryl Cooper provoked similar condemnation, after Cooper denied Nazi intent in the Holocaust and blamed Churchill for World War II atrocities, all with no pushback from Carlson. These editorial choices not only drew public rebuke from the White House and bipartisan groups of legislators but also stoked debates over rising antisemitism within the Republican Party and the broader conservative movement.In parallel to these controversies, Carlson's media ventures continue to attract attention. His new startup, Last Country, co-founded with Neil Patel, recently received a $15 million seed investment from Omeed Malik's 1789 Capital, according to the Wall Street Journal. Carlson is leveraging this funding to grow his audience through video content, mostly hosted on X (formerly Twitter), and has already produced episodes featuring major political figures including Donald Trump. Since departing Fox News, Carlson has focused on building a subscription-based media company and has regained significant popularity in the podcast space. By this summer, “The Tucker Carlson Show” was ranked the number one political podcast on Spotify.These developments have made Carlson a polarizing figure, amplifying debates over free speech, the mainstreaming of extremist rhetoric, and the responsibilities of leading media personalities. While Carlson retains a substantial following and influential allies in conservative media and think tanks, his critics warn of the dangers posed by granting a platform to extremist voices and normalizing language previously confined to the political fringes.Thanks for tuning in and don't forget to subscribe to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

The 3WHH is a man down this week as John was unavailable, so Steve and Lucretia soldiered on without his ritual abuse of their superior taste in political philosophy, prudence, and natural law. And in the best fashion of Helen Andrews, Steve ran the episode even though it was Lucretia's turn on the host rotation calendar. We could have called this episode "Revenge of the Manosphere."Steve and Lucretia consider a few news headlines, and some major stories conspicuously not making headlines* (such as the Houise investigation of the White House conspiracy to cover up Joe Biden's senility), who Bill Kristol supports in the NY City mayor's race (you'll never guess), whether the climate cult is over, and alarm bells about rising anti-Israel sentiment among young conservatives. (We recorded before the Kevin Roberts video went live, however.)And then we arrive at the main topic of the day: Lucretia defending herself against charges of "lookism." Steve enlists an expert witness: the great Taki Theodoracopulos, who wrote way back in 1981 that American women were the ugliest in the world. Seems like the perfect topic for the week when the world discovered the Jennifer Welch, the Democrats' newest It-Girl. (And naturally, the exit music this week is "Ugly Women," by country musician Grant Langston.)* Yes, that sentence is a sly reference to a light bulb joke: How many Straussians does it take to change a light bulb? None: the light is made conspicuous by its absence. (IYKYK, otherwise you don't get Plato.)

Since his election in 2010, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has transformed Hungary from a democracy into a quasi-authoritarian country. In Hungary today, elections, economic policies, and the media are warped to benefit Orbán and his conservative Fidesz Party. Orbán's government, with its consolidation of executive power, Christian nationalist and anit-LGBTQ policies served as inspiration for Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's plan for Donald Trump's second term. Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts has called modern Hungary “not just a model for conservative statecraft but the model.”A new documentary film, Democracy Noir, shows how Orbán changed Hungarian politics. In the words of Budapest-based journalist Babbett Oroszi, Orbán has “hacked democracy” – quietly using the levers of democracy, rather than a violent revolution, to accomplish his aims.  The film tells the story of modern Hungary through the eyes of three three female members of Hungary's resistance – reporter Oroszi, nurse and activist Niko Antal, and Tímea Szabó, an opposition leader in Hungary's parliament. Our guest, director Connie Field, has followed Hungarian politics since the country's first years as a democracy in the early 1990s. An American progressive and award-winning documentarian, she has a shrewd eye on how Orban's actions are being mirrored in the United States. The episode also includes discussion of a new leader who observers think has a real chance of upending Orbán's hold on power in the 2026 election.LEARN MORE:Watch a trailer for the film, find out where it's being screened, or request a screeningDownload the discussion guide.Connie Field bio ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

Story #1: As the media warps their coverage of Charlie Kirk's assassination, from ABC describing it as a “love story” to CNN refusing to acknowledge the motive, Will argues that America is in a spiritual war of good vs. evil. A culture celebrating violence has lost its moral compass. Story #2: Heritage Foundation President Dr. Kevin Roberts joins Will to discuss what Charlie Kirk's assassination reveals about the Left's march through America's institutions. Roberts says tolerance has morphed into totalitarianism, and that it's time for courage, truth-telling, and cultural accountability to reclaim the country. Story #3: Gary Myers, Author of 'Brady vs. Belichick: The Dynasty Debate,' helps Will settle one of sports' greatest arguments: Was it Tom Brady or Bill Belichick who deserves more credit for the Patriots dynasty? Myers shares behind-the-scenes stories, insight from legends like Joe Montana, and why this debate is about more than just football, it's about leadership and legacy.

If you go to its site and become a supporter, you can watch the entire video archive. A classic I recommend: “Be it resolved, religion is a force for good in the world” with Tony Blair debating Christopher Hitchens.Note: This recording has not been fact-checked by our team.
