You dashed my hopes of a Mike Pence interview with Carlson! I want to hear him explain the latest “findings” of the FBI that the CCP was involved in printing fake mail in ballots in 2020. So was Mike Lindell right about voting machines too?

Better still, I'd like to see Patel interviewed about how he's going to hold to account every single individual involved!

I agree with Ruth H. above that Tucker was rude and condescending. But I also was very shocked and disturbed that Sen. Cruz seemed so uninformed and often illogical and inarticulate. Alan Dershowitz had always described Cruz as one of his all-time most brilliant students at Harvard Law. (https://theweek.com/speedreads/618098/alan-dershowitz-doubles-down-ted-cruz-being-most-brilliant-law-students). And Cruz has argued many cases before the Supreme Court. Tucker completely dominated the interview!!

I think Tucker’s interview attack caught Cruz in a surprisingly awkward position trying to respond, especially when Tucker rudely responded and laughed. It was not a good interview for either, but Tucker deserves no praise for how he conducted this interview.

I agree with Ruth H and others here. Tucker has morphed into some kind of tool for who knows what. But it CERTAINLY isn't genuine America First. I have been done with him for a while now. I called Senator Cruz and left a message of support for him, scorn for Tucker and support for taking out Iran's Nuke capabilities.

Stealing land: bad

Dropping 70,000 tonnes (as of April 2024) of explosives on a tiny strip of land full of civilians: bad

The murder of at least 70,000 people (The Lancet - the analysis estimated that 59.1% were women, children and the elderly): Bad

Islamic terrorists are after US, Israel is just in the way. Notice how quick Kook Tucker is to belittle Cruz's faith while not confronting the motivating faith of the terrorist industrial complex.

Cruz was polite, respectful.

Carlson was rude, condescending, laughed in Ted's face while mocked his faith (remaining silent on faith of terrorists plotting US demise of course)

Tucker questionable motive not surprising considering his background

So you don't see a distinction between rogue Islamists and the nation of Iran, and its nuclear ambitions? They're one and the same? That's the idea?

I'm supposed to believe that border crossers have a nuke stashed away somewhere and they're waiting on an order from Iran to detonate? Feel free to share your evidence, since you apparently believe it's okay to conflate random border crossers with Iranian mullahs. I'll wait.

I like Tucker Carlson, but in this video, I thought he was rude, unlistening, and condescending. Nor did he ever give Cruz a chance to finish his responses. Tucker stating he was defensive is a misnomer, he was simply trying to respond while Tucker did not give him the courtesy of letting him respond. Cruz has access to a hell of a lot more information than Tucker could ever hope to have and Cruz has to be careful not to divulge classified data.

David Baltz's avatar

Why is it when Neocons want to take us into another endless war, we can't argue against it because of "classified data" we don't have access to? Are we just supposed to trust the Deep State? Just show me the pics of the nuclear weapon they supposedly are "weeks away" from and I might support intervention. Until then, America First!

Tricia's avatar

I am not in favor of engagement by the US as well because I do not trust the deep state which includes the CIA. There is much discussion in both camps. Sacks says that the Iranians do not want a nuclear weapon, but he does not go any further to say who it is that he was talking to. Also the numbers keep changing as to when Iran may be able to produce a nuclear bomb. I am sure at this point that China has removed all fiscial material and taken it out of the country. Not to mention that China has been delivering weaponry to Iran as well, which "could include nuclear warheads" as well. In any event I feel the downsides are too risky. With respect to the Carlson attack on Cruz, I just didn't like his aggressive behavior and not allowing Cruz to finish a point.

I disagree with Roger Stone and Tucker Carlson, regarding Ted Cruz…Senator Cruz proved completely right about Israel being God’s Earthly Chosen People regathered, according to Bible Prophecy; Tucker Carlson proved to be the ignorant snob many of us suspected he was, especially regarding Israel.

I’m proud of Senator Cruz for the way he handled this ambush Tucker Carlson called an interview. Tucker Carlson should be ashamed of himself for the way he conducted the interview, but he (Tucker Carlson) isn’t man enough to ever be ashamed of the way he conducts himself and Tucker Carlson’s wife can attest to this.

ministers-Motrich is a Jewish supremist, who has vowed that all gentiles who try to move to Israel should be shot, etc and he was called out for this during his recent visit to NYC. Do I take Motrich seriously? No…He’s too much the laughable idiot for me to care what he thinks and I don’t fear him; he’s a fat-grossly out of shape-well fed Jewish male who grossly overrates his own importance, just like his gentile FBI counter part, James Comey. But I’m required, by NKJV Bible command of God, to defend Israel, because they are God’s Earthly Chosen People and they have been regathered to the Holy Land-through the Balfour Declaration of 1947-as Bible Prophecy dictates, no matter who calls me a traitor, stupid, etc for it. Enjoy making fun of me, threatening me or calling me a traitor, for it; you won’t change my mind! GO ISRAEL🇮🇱GO TRUMP🇺🇸GO HUCKABEE🇺🇸

While Israel are God’s chosen people and God did say :“and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

‭‭Genesis‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Cruz really stepped in it by trying to use this to promote starting a nuclear war. To avoid cursing the nation . First off , when one uses the Bible to justify a political position you must know where it comes from in context. Cruz recited a portion of the passage out of context. Carlson immediately picked up on it and called him on it. Cruz was just repeating something that someone had said.The passage nowhere says that everyone has to honor Israel’s commands just because they need your use , as a tool to be used as they see fit. Yes we should bless Israel and we should avoid cursing Israel. ,but we aren’t called to serve as they see fit upon demand. We aren’t slaves to Israel. Therefore we aren’t required to risk our nation becoming entangled in a world nuclear war just because it suits their idea of what should be done at the moment. And this goes double for those that wish for us to attack another country using the Bible as evidence.

Does voting for or against an Israeli PM candidate or re-electing an Israeli PM make Israel any less God’s Earthly Chosen People?

Taking into account the now obvious, unfortunate reality of 9/11, the OKC bombing and similar events, it should now be clear that the CIA, working with various unsavory groups around the world such as Al-Qaeda & ISIS, is the primary terrorist threat to the US, as opposed to the religious fanatics in charge of a third-world country 7000 miles away.

What little I could stand of this interchange was Carlson again revealing himself as the petulant, rude, teenager that he is.

Really now. Does one need to know the exact population figure of Iran in order to discuss its politics? Cruz should have walked off at that point.

The only parts of Carlson's interviews I have found enlightening is when he shuts the heck up and lets the other person talk.

His commentary is generally ill informed and childish particularly when it comes to the Christian faith and Islam. Weak.

I am not pleased with Tucker apparently leading a crusade regarding the Iranian situation that our President is faced with right now. He knows he shouldn’t have as evidenced by his apology to President Trump. Perhaps he is a little too full of himself at this point. Regarding Ted Cruz- I only know what I read here but I believe you can hold a guest on point and accountable but obvious disdain is inappropriate while that person is your guest.

Tucker sliced and diced Cruz like a Christmas turkey. I was rolling on the floor after a couple of Tuckers comebacks.

I have been told by a few others that he was rude or arrogant (not by Cruz supporters) but some people just deserve ridicule. When his other interviewees tell a whopper, Tucker usually just raises his eyebrows. He gave no quarter to Cruz but just laughed hysterically. It was delicious!
