"He told me, Ambassador, can you please take me off the list? And I was shocked. I told him, what are you talking about? He told me, I'm being attacked by the Jews. So maybe you have like a list. Can you take me off the list? So I waited for a minute and I told him, Mr. Carlson, we don't have a list. You are being attacked because you're spreading lies."
Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon revealed that Tucker Carlson personally called him asking to be removed from what Carlson believed was a coordinated Jewish attack list. The bizarre phone call illustrates how Carlson's criticism of Israel and platforming of antisemitic figures like Nick Fuentes has isolated him. Sommer suggests Carlson is positioning himself for a potential 2028 presidential run in an isolationist, populist lane.
