Tucker Carlson: CIA Spied on Texts, Threatens Charges

0:00On April 3, Tucker Carlson dropped a bombshell on March 14, claiming the CIA spied on his text messages with Iranian officials right before. The U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran. Now he's saying the agency wants to hit him with criminal charges for breaking the Foreign Agents Registration Act by lobbying for foreign power. Without registering with the Justice Department, this all ties back to Carlson's fierce opposition to Donald Trump's war plans. He met with the President three times just before the February 28 attacks, calling the whole operation disgusting and a betrayal of Trump's. No new war's promise. Trump fired back on March 5, basically kicking Carlson out of the Macka Circle by saying he'd lost his way. Carlson hit back hard, insisting he's never taken a dime from any foreign government, and his loyalty is to America first. He's accusing CIA elements of targeting him because he criticized Israel's Gaza war, using spying and referrals to humiliate critics. This isn't new.

1:00His Putin interview already had folks whispering he's too cozy with America's foes. Sources close to DC say Trump himself might have greenlit the text check after Carlson's anti-war stance, raising big questions about what those. Messages really contained. It's a wild clash exposing deep riffs and conservative ranks. Pop culture, powered by AI, this is entertainment and celebrity news today. I'm Corey with the story.
