Jeremy Boreing Claims Tucker Carlson Admitted He Would Lie for Power

What was said

"He sat in my office and said something to me, and then he went on Ben's show and said the same, some version of the same thing, which was essentially that he would be willing to lie for power. And it, it really shocked me."

In a 2018 meeting, Jeremy Boreing alleges Tucker Carlson explicitly stated he would falsely claim safety concerns to ban autonomous vehicles, even if safety wasn't the real issue, simply to prevent job losses and achieve his policy goals. Boreing says Carlson told him directly he would lie to exercise executive power, a claim Boreing says was repeated on Ben Shapiro's show and fundamentally changed his view of Carlson as a dangerous actor in conservative politics.
