𝐌𝐈𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐀 𝐃𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐄: "𝐈 𝐃𝐎𝐍'𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐎𝐆𝐍𝐈𝐙𝐄 𝐇𝐈𝐌 𝐀𝐍𝐘𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄" Miranda Devine was close enough to Tucker Carlson that he asked her to write his biography. She was halfway through it when he left Fox. She was on his show constantly. She knows him. And she does not recognize what he has become. Her explanation is worth hearing — because it is charitable, honest, and ultimately more damning than any partisan attack could be. Tucker started in journalism working for Bill Kristol in the neoconservative world. He was young, charismatic, a gifted writer, great on air. And he believes Kristol used those gifts to prosecute the case for the Iraq War — a war Tucker later concluded was a catastrophic mistake. He had a friend die there. He beats himself up about it constantly. That guilt is real. That anti-war conviction that grew from it is genuine. And Devine is right that Tucker is not alone — a whole generation of conservatives, Pete Hegseth among them, came out of the Iraq era deeply skeptical of military intervention and the people who sold it to them. I've said as much. The skepticism itself is not the problem. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐞'𝐬 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. At Fox, Tucker had an exceptional team around him. Executive producer Justin Wells — described as first among equals in Fox behind-the-scenes talent. A retinue of genuinely gifted people who took Tucker's immense natural ability and turned it into the number one cable news show in America. You do not achieve that without excellent editorial judgment surrounding you, challenging you, sharpening you. When Tucker left Fox, he could not keep those people. And now, according to someone who knows him well and has no axe to grind, 𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝. That word matters. Isolation is how talented people go wrong. It removes the friction that produces good judgment. It removes the trusted voices that say — wait, think about this differently. It removes the editorial check that separates a genuinely great broadcaster from someone platforming whatever confirms his existing worldview. The Tucker Carlson who was brilliant on Fox was Tucker Carlson plus a world-class team that made him better. The Tucker Carlson who says he is rooting for Iran to win, who praises communist dictators, who questions whether H-m-s is a terrorist organization, who bought a home in Qatar and whose content is distributed by the Muslim Brotherhood — that Tucker Carlson is isolated, nursing a decades-old wound about Iraq, and apparently surrounded by people who tell him what he wants to hear rather than what he needs to hear. Devine's account does not excuse what Tucker has become. It explains it. And the explanation is in some ways sadder than the simpler version — because it suggests a genuinely talented man who once did great work has been undone not by malice but by isolation, guilt, and the absence of people willing to push back.

𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗙𝗔𝗟𝗦𝗘 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗜𝗠𝗦. 𝗙𝗜𝗙𝗧𝗬-𝗘𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗦𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗗𝗦. 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗦𝗛𝗥𝗘𝗗 𝗢𝗙 𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘. I'm going to try to be civil and fair about this. Just the facts. Let's go through them one by one because Candace Owens just set a personal record. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗢𝗻𝗲: Bill Ackman wants her imprisoned for suggesting Americans shouldn't be slaughtered for Israel. What Ackman actually objects to is her antisemitic conspiracy mongering. Criticizing Israel's policies is not what she is doing. Blaming Jews for running the U.S. military is what she is doing. Those are not the same thing. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗧𝘄𝗼: The entire war was engineered by Israel. No evidence. The strikes on Iran were ordered by Donald Trump, planned by U.S. Central Command, and executed by U.S. and Israeli forces. The decision architecture is documented and public. This is a conspiracy theory with Russian state media fingerprints all over it. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲: Trump betrayed the American people. Trump ordered the most successful destruction of an enemy military in modern history, ahead of schedule, with Iran begging to talk. Betrayal is not the word that fits. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗿: Trump is not the commander of the armed forces. He 𝗶𝘀 the Commander-in-Chief of the United States military under Article II of the Constitution. This is not a matter of opinion. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗙𝗶𝘃𝗲: Bibi Netanyahu is the commander of U.S. forces. Benjamin Netanyahu is the Prime Minister of Israel. He has zero command authority over a single American service member. Zero. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗦𝗶𝘅: Miriam Adelson is the commander of U.S. forces. Miriam Adelson is a private citizen and Republican donor. She commands nothing. This claim exists solely to put a Jewish name in the sentence. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗦𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻: Charlie Kirk was the first casualty of the Iran war. Charlie Kirk was ass*ssinated on September 10, 2025 at Utah Valley University by a 22-year-old named Tyler James Robinson — a politically motivated k!ller who has been charged with aggravated murder. The Iran operation began months later. The two events are connected only in Candace's imagination. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗘𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: Charlie was intentionally sacrificed by occult worshippers. A grieving widow's husband was murdered in front of 3,000 people and Candace is calling it a ritual sacrifice. No evidence. No source. No shame. 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗡𝗶𝗻𝗲: Erika Kirk always wanted to become president of Turning Point. Erika Kirk is a widow with two children who told Candace publicly to stop. That is the totality of what Erika has done to deserve this. The JCFA found that 45% of young Republicans now view Jews as a threat to America. Tucker platforms Nick Fuentes who says his mission is to combat global Jewry. Tucker compared himself to Jesus at Charlie's memorial, implying Jews k!lled him. And Candace just named two Jewish people as the secret commanders of the U.S. military in the same breath as calling her friend's murder an occult sacrifice. Ted Cruz called Tucker the single most dangerous demagogue in America. He was right. But Candace is running a close second. 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗲 𝗞𝗶𝗿𝗸 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀.

When 2 liars talk........

If he wants trust in vaccines he must first come clean on all the lies told about the covid vaxx. Only then should people give them the opportunity to earn trust again.

Newsomes leadership will cause long range disaster

You don’t have to speak ill of the dead, but you also don’t have to glorify them. Fact: This guy was a violent, impulsive communist who repeatedly put himself in danger to shield Venezuelan pedophiles from accountability. This was his choice, but I protect my daughters from that

Don lemon for prison

This reporter is awesome! Love that she is calling out that absolute rat Jamie Raskin for his bullshit January 6th lies. Also a big fan of that power move she pulled on the woman that was trying to block her. 💪

She is the instigator

Voter ID is essential to stop widespread fraud

You’re an actual idiot.

I swear, today's democrats would have called D-day an invasion of France if they thought it was politically expedient

Ilhan Omar mocks Charlie Kirk; says his legacy “should be in the Dustbin of History.” “We should hopefully move on and forget the hate he spewed every single day.”

They make the mistake of assuming we are all dumb. We make the mistake of underestimating their plan. You can’t complain about the results of work you did not do so let’s work together. I appreciate you.

As a career Air Force veteran, combat pilot, and former Air Force Military Aide to President Bill Clinton, my personal statement about Democrats and the Sedition Six.

Mark, enough with the martyr routine. You’re not being “targeted” because someone didn’t like your opinion. You made a public statement as a retired officer about ignoring orders, and that has real consequences under the UCMJ. You know that as well as anyone. Stop pretending this is some heroic stand against intimidation. No one is trying to silence you. No one is dragging up your past or your personal tragedies. This isn’t about your service record, your wife, or what you’ve survived. This is about what you said in this moment. And honestly, the nonstop media tour isn’t helping you. This isn’t a campaign rally and votes won’t shield you from a military investigation. Your constituents can cheer, clap, cry or defend you online and it won’t change a thing. You’re not under attack. You’re under scrutiny, and for a retired officer who knows the rules, you should understand exactly why.

The liar not only blames Republicans for his shutdown, now he's blaming them for obamacare?
