Description

During a recent interview between Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz, the host questioned Cruz about U.S. policy toward Iran, pressing him on his lack of basic knowledge about the country while accusing him of advocating reckless military intervention. Cruz awkwardly admits he doesn’t know Iran’s population, despite calling for regime change, and the exchange becomes increasingly combative as Carlson challenged the Texas senator’s credibility. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence show note that Carlson gets Cruz to reveal that the U.S. is already backing Israeli strikes against Iran—contradicting official government statements. The hosts argue the push for war is being driven by pro-Israel influence and propaganda, echoing the prelude to the Iraq War. They also urge viewers, especially Trump supporters, to withhold all political support if Trump endorses military action, emphasizing the catastrophic consequences of war with Iran.

I still remember the video of Cruz saying they had to destroy the nordstream pipeline. He,s a disgrace to humanity.

Tucker just challenged a narrative that’s been relatively unchallenged since 1948, and there’s no turning back.

That interview was an instant classic. Never, at least in the last 50 years, was a politician ever seriously questioned about American's involvement with Israel.

I’m a pretty conservative dude who loves Jimmy’s open mind and fair criticism. And this interview with Cruz was an eye opener. Tucker annihilated him and it was refreshing.

🌍: Why are you attacking Iran? 🇺🇸: Because they have nuclear weapons! 🌍: Why don’t you attack Russia? 🇺🇸: Are you crazy? They have nuclear weapons!

I laughed out loud at a few points in this interview. Cruz embarrassed himself.

Trump saying he is "America First" is similar to Fauci saying "I'm the science".

Tucker nailed it when he called Cruz a "Sleezy Feline." Insulting to cats, though.
