In this episode of his notebook, Beinart speaks about Tucker Carlson and other right-wing commentators and their unabashed anti-Black and anti-immigrant bigotry as well as their Jew hatred. Carlson is the well-known former Fox News commentator who since 2023 hosts the right-wing talk shows “Tucker on X” and “The Tucker Carlson Show.”
This discussion is timely. Carlson and other ultra-rightists have recently broken with U.S. president Donald Trump over the Iran war, claiming that Israel forced Washington into attacking Tehran. In a recent podcast, for example, Carlson proffered “remorse” for his previous exaltations of Trump and for vigorously campaigning for Trump’s re-election in 2024.
In the transcript below, Beinart presents convincing evidence that confirms Carlson’s bigotry and Jew hatred.



Tucker Carlson is, and always will be a cunt.
But the world doesn’t buy
Against Zionism equals Antisemitism
and, the last vestiges of that grift are dying as a direct result of Israeli Crimes against Humanity in their quest for Lebensraum.
Tucker Carlson’s sin here, was not complaining much louder, and much sooner.
