In this episode of his notebook, Beinart speaks about Tucker Carlson and other right-wing commentators and their unabashed anti-Black and anti-immigrant bigotry as well as their Jew hatred. Carlson is the well-known former Fox News commentator who since 2023 hosts the right-wing talk shows “Tucker on X” and “The Tucker Carlson Show.”

This discussion is timely. Carlson and other ultra-rightists have recently broken with U.S. president Donald Trump over the Iran war, claiming that Israel forced Washington into attacking Tehran. In a recent podcast, for example, Carlson proffered “remorse” for his previous exaltations of Trump and for vigorously campaigning for Trump’s re-election in 2024.

In the transcript below, Beinart presents convincing evidence that confirms Carlson’s bigotry and Jew hatred.

I think Carlson is a bit worse than a bigot; he is willing to conform to any style of thought.

Today it’s bigotry, and climate skepticism. In twenty years, probably will be a famous proponent of climate saving. Then a bit later a champion of human rights, then later promoting genocide for a white ethnostate.

A normal bigot will vomit out nonsense. He will use hatred whenever possible for his own power, coldly and logically.
