Tucker Carlson expresses fear that he may face federal charges for talking to Iranians

AI Summary

medium article 3 min

Tucker Carlson has publicly stated his fear of potential federal charges for allegedly "acting as an agent of a foreign power" by communicating with individuals in Iran. Carlson claims the CIA is preparing a criminal referral to the Justice Department based on these communications, which he says occurred before the recent conflict. He denies any disloyalty to the United States and suggests government agencies have been reading his texts. This claim comes amid Carlson's questioning of US support for Israel, a stance that has distanced him from some within the conservative movement. The Justice Department has been contacted for comment.
