Videos showing crowds walking out on Tucker Carlson during a speech at Turning Point USA have gone viral, alongside reports that hundreds of attendees left the venue during what many described as an anti-Semitic rant. Speaking from the podium, Carlson claimed that “everyone in Washington” believes Jeffrey Epstein was working for the Mossad to blackmail U.S. government officials.
The mass walkout adds to Carlson’s growing unpopularity, fueled by his increasingly sympathetic posture toward Russia, Qatar, and Iran.
Ironically, while Carlson continues to promote unfounded claims about Israel wielding disproportionate influence in Washington, documents published by the U.S. Department of Justice reveal that Carlson received funding from Qatar’s embassy in Washington, D.C., for an interview covering the topic of Iran.
Carlson has also been widely mocked for his March 2025 prediction that:
“A strike on the Iranian nuclear sites will almost certainly result in thousands of American deaths at bases throughout the Middle East, and cost the United States tens of billions of dollars. The cost of future acts of terrorism on American soil may be even higher. Those aren’t guesses. Those are the Pentagon’s own estimates. A bombing campaign against Iran will set off a war, and it will be America’s war. Don’t let the propagandists lie to you.”
None of these dire predictions materialized when the United States launched B-2 bomber strikes on Iran’s nuclear facility in Fordow.

“None of these dire predictions materialized”…YET!
There should still be concern for a retaliatory terror attack by Iran in America.
America and Israel currently control Iranian airspace. The Islamic Republic was a nation that put too much store in its proxies and nuclear capabilities. Both are crippled beyond repair. Iran may talk a big talk, but the only thing they’ll do, or even can do now, is take it out on their own citizens, which they have been doing, by the way. Iran doesn’t have the capability to strike us.
