Tucker Carlson blasts Trump for being complicit in backing Israel’s attacks against Iran

Tucker Carlson has turned on President Donald Trump by accusing him of being “complicit” in Israel’s attacks on Iran.

The former Fox News host and MAGA figurehead rebuked Trump and the administration in his newsletter titled: “This Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War.”

“Despite being complicit in the act of war, the president hopes last night’s events will help his ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran,” Carlson wrote.

“While the American military may not have physically perpetrated the assault, years of funding and sending weapons to Israel, which Donald Trump just bragged about on Truth Social, undeniably place the U.S. at the center of last night’s events,” the right-wing pundit added.

Trump boasted on Truth Social that Israel was using military equipment made in the U.S., which he described as “the best and most lethal military equipment anywhere in the World, BY FAR.”

Carlson’s newsletter went on to say that the U.S. is now “in deep.”

“Washington knew these attacks would happen. They aided Israel in carrying them out,” Carlson continued. “Politicians purporting to be America First can’t now credibly turn around and say they had nothing to do with it.”

Deepening Divide Within the MAGA Movement

The conflict is already splitting MAGA down the middle, leading figures of the movement have said publicly.

“A direct strike on Iran right now would disastrously split the Trump coalition,” podcaster Jack Posobiec wrote on X. “Trump smartly ran against starting new wars, this is what the swing states voted for.” He added that it could cost the Republicans the midterms.
