Tucker Carlson Exposes the DARK SIDE of the Israel-First Identity Politics

Added: 2026-05-22

[00:00:00]You have the most aggressive and the most threatening outbreak of identity politics maybe in this country's history.

[00:00:08]You have the Justice Department endorsing the idea that criticism of foreign nation is potentially a crime.

[00:00:13]And you have certain states banning it like Florida. They're mad at Massie.

[00:00:17]Why?

[00:00:19]One Republican out of 217 who hasn't taken money from the Israeli lobby. Why are they so mad at him? Why was it so important for the Israeli lobby to spend tens of millions of dollars to crush this guy?

[00:00:34]Tucker Carlson just revealed the darkest side of the Israel lobby and identity politics. How these concepts are linked by the recent successful purging of Thomas Massie from his congressional seat and why this is the kind of identity politics that the Republican establishment has no problem accepting.

[00:00:54]and Tucker brings us the facts here.

[00:00:56]Let's take a look at them. Please like the video and subscribe to the channel.

[00:01:00]Hype it if you can and let's get going.

[00:01:03]>> He wasn't stopping really the status quo in any way. He did help get some of the Epstein files, some of the Epstein files released and God bless him for that. He tried his hardest, but one man against 216 other members of his party is not going to get very far by definition. So why just leave him alone? Why force the issue? Why are they so mad at this guy?

[00:01:21]Why is Trump so mad at him? Why is M.

[00:01:24]so mad and of course the answer is because Thomas Massie was willing to say out loud that there is an Israel lobby.

[00:01:31]There is a foreign country whose supporters in the United States in positions of prominence are making campaign contributions purely on the basis of what's good for a foreign country. Their loyalty is not to the United States. It's to a foreign country.

[00:01:49]Well, that's just true. It's just a fact. But you can't say that. Why can't you say it? Well, because it's true.

[00:01:55]That's why if it was a lie, if you were claiming the earth was flat, they'd ignore you. But be precisely because it is true. It's the truest thing. In fact, it's the it's the definitive fact in American politics. You're not allowed to say it. And he did. Now, why do we say that's true? Isn't that an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory?

[00:02:17]Well, I don't know. Let's go to the Israeli press, which for all its many faults is a little bit more honest. It's a little bit less constipated in its use of language. They can kind of say things out loud because who's watching? Herets, the traditionally liberal paper in Israel, publishes an English language edition. And here was its headline yesterday. Look at this.

[00:02:38]There it is. The most consequential Republican primary for Israel is happening in Kentucky. Now, why would the Republican primary in the fourth district of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, a place doubtless most Israelis had never visited or can locate? Why would that be so important for Israel?

[00:03:01]That's exactly right. Me and Dave Damp are just discussing this on our podcast yesterday. This was Herets's English sites top story that this is the most consequential race for Israel. But if you say that and you're a critic of Israel, you're just smeared as a Jew hater, an anti-semite, you're guilty of blood liel and all this nonsense. But that is what this was. Regular people can see it. And Tucker is right for the cardinal sin of actually speaking from within the political system and saying, "Hey, this is how it's run. This is all the pressure from the Israel lobby.

[00:03:36]Every American congressman has a handler dedicated to delivering Israel's objectives via the treasury of the United States, taken from the American people through coercion. That's where our money is being funneled into. For the cardinal sin of that, they decided to take him out. It wasn't even obstructing or opposing the big beautiful bill. I call it the big abominable bill because it adds 5 trillion to the debt when it's already 40 trillion in debt. Because Marjorie Taylor Green did vote for the big beautiful bill. They both fell under the same anger, hatred, and desire to displace them by Trump and his Israel first billionaire Zionist donor allies like Miriam Adlesen, but also Paul Singer, a diehard LGBT campaign activist. also another billionaire Zionist donor, also prioritizes Israel, but has no problem with some sort of obscure schism within the Republican party. He just prioritizes Israel as well. And along with them, John Pollson, a literal associate with of Epstein, of Jeffrey Epstein, decided to take Massie out.

[00:04:44]This wasn't a litmus test on Trump. This wasn't about grandstanding. This was about defying the Israel lobby. Well, because lots of things they tell you were not true are entirely true. First among them is Israel could not exist without the United States in its present form. Its ambitions would be at best vastly cretailed because everything outside its borders that Israel does is done with American tax dollars and with the backs stop of the lives of American servicemen.

[00:05:15]So without that, the Greater Israel project is done. Israel can exist in its 48 borders, maybe. It probably can't hold on to its 67 borders, which is to say Gaza, West Bank, it's going to be a slog because the United States makes that possible. Israel's expansion is paid for and guaranteed by the United States taxpayer. And anyone who says that out loud, that is absolutely true. There's nothing more true in global politics than that. But anyone who says it reveals the game and must be destroyed.

[00:05:47]And that's why even in Israel, they know that beating Thomas Massie is priority number one. But on its face, that sounds like an anti-semitic conspiracy theory.

[00:06:02]A Republican primary in a minor Republican state, not even a state, a Commonwealth, whatever that is, is being orchestrated from Israel with Israel's interests in mind, not America's interests. What are you, a Nazi?

[00:06:18]Not in Israel. You're not if you say that because it's true and they said it.

[00:06:23]So Massie says, "Well, it's Apac, the Republican Jewish Coalition. They're the ones opposing me. It's not a ground swell of support from within the district for my opponent, Ed, whatever his name is, Gaulin or Gal. No one even knows how to pronounce his name. He's not a I mean, is he a real person? I don't know." That's a great point. I don't even know how to pronounce his name. No one does. No one knows this guy. He's an empty suit for the Israel lobby and that's why they supported him. He might as well be a potato. He didn't agree to debate mass.

[00:06:53]He didn't even articulate many of his principles per se. The only big contribution to ideas he presented on the campaign trail was a dedication to restoring the draft. The draft to send people via slavery to the state into wars, including the ones fought right now in Iran for Israel's sake. enslaved to another foreign country under an American draft that accepts that we still have selective service. The framework is there to bring this back.

[00:07:23]Ed Gal Reign is saying this needs to happen and that's good enough for the Fox News watching boomer supporters of Ed Galain in Northern Kentucky with all this money flowing in to make that happen. That is the ultimate irony here.

[00:07:37]And Tucker's right. If you're a podcaster, you're in the independent media, you're not employed by these corporate politicallyowned mobsters, you can tell the truth about the Israel lobby and its influence in government.

[00:07:49]But because the American culture has accepted that, but if you're in the inner sanctum of their sacred temple, the Congress, and if you divulge the truth about this, you become regime target number one, public enemy number one of the Israel lobby. That's what Massie did, and that's why they targeted him. His only real meaningful campaign pledge is to bring back the draft. The draft, >> right?

[00:08:13]>> How many people are in support of a draft? How many people of draft age are in support of a draft? None.

[00:08:20]Why would you want a draft? Do the joint chiefs want a draft? Would it make the military better if we had a draft? Why would we have a draft?

[00:08:28]When entire wars are fought with drones, do we need a draft? Ed Galrin or Galrine or whatever this composite figure is calling himself wants a draft. Can you think of a more totalitarian and less popular position for any person running for office to take than I want a draft? Vote for me and I will take your child and send him to go die for Israel.

[00:08:51]Is that actually a campaign pledge? He made that pledge.

[00:08:56]So Massiey's point is this guy who refused to have a single debate with the incumbent, not one, who has no obvious support in the district, this guy only has a chance because Apac from whom I've never taken a dollar, the only Republican who's never taken money from Apac. Apac is on his side. That's Thomas Massiey's position to which CBS News and Mark Levvin and all the other dumb people and MAGA world that's anti-semitic.

[00:09:28]Yeah. Mark Leavvin's response to that was indistinguishable from Barry Weissled CBS News smearing Massie as an anti-semite, saying his biggest supporters were jihadis that support Hamas and Hezbollah, etc. It's so preposterous that these two sides of a supposedly ideological battle against each other, the left and the right, the corporate news versus right-wing extreme conservatism, Mark Levvin, are absolutely on the same page in this nonsense. That the constant money flow to Israel has to continue. That this the wars for Israel have to continue. that you can't talk truth about Israel's influence or control or domination over our government, over our interests, and how much of a slap to the face that that is to our sovereignty, to our country, to our communities. You can't point that out if you're within the system because then you become the enemy of the system.

[00:10:26]That's why they took him out. It's just the facts. Now, let's take a moment to thank our sponsor, Monetary Metals.

[00:10:32]monetaryheyenmetals.com/vault.

[00:10:36]Because lovers of liberty and sound money already know why gold matters.

[00:10:40]It's preserved purchasing power over thousands of years while governments debase paper currency. It's a hedge against inflation. But despite this, most people think of gold as something that just sits around and you forget about. But that just means it does nothing for you. It doesn't earn a yield. But that's where Monetary Metals steps in. They've created a system where you can earn yield on your gold paid in more gold and in fact depending on the opportunity up to 4%. So monetary medals gives gold owners a way to guard against inflation, earn a return and put their metal into productive use instead of relying on the fiat financial system, a corrupt one at that. So if you already own gold or are thinking of owning some, this is well worth looking into. Go to monetaryheyenmetals.com/vault to learn how you can start earning a return on your gold. Monetary Metals has my full enthusiastic endorsement because it's the ultimate way to protect yourself from the corrupt financial system. Now, let's get back into the conversation.

[00:11:44]Really, now let's see what Apac has to say about it. Minutes after Massie was declared the loser, Apac. Apac, the dreaded Apac whose name we're not allowed to say. Apac sent out this tweet in public on Twitter. Here's what they said. We're quoting, "ProIsrael Americans are proud to help defeat anti-Israeli candidates. Being pro-Israel is good policy and good politics and good politics." exclamation point. In other words, the second Massie loses, Apac announces, "We did it. We did it. We bumped this guy off. He criticized us. We're literally an unregistered foreign lobby who exists not to help the United States or its citizens, but a foreign country that couldn't exist without our aid anyway, whose aims are so far from ours that they are hurting us gravely, whose population may love Trump, but in a lot of ways hate Christian Americans.

[00:12:44]That's why they're spitting on nuns.

[00:12:46]That country doesn't like this member of Congress. Therefore, we're going to take him out. And by the way, we did.

[00:12:53]Oh.

[00:12:55]So, in other words, Apac is saying out loud something that if you said out loud might get you fired from your job or investigated by the Trump DOJ, which by the way has just announced a multi-ity anti-anti-semitism tour led by Leo Terrell, the chief of anti-semitism enforcement or something, a Fox News contributor with I think 11 IRS leans against him over more than 10 years. a guy who's sort of wonder like how'd you get into federal service if you have problem paying federal taxes? We'll leave that between him and the IRS. Maybe he'll get his own exemption from IRS audits. We'll see.

[00:13:32]But that guy is leading a tour of the United States to try and do something with the impromoder of the Department of Justice, which is to say people with guns about the most pressing problem in this nation, which is criticism of Israel. Because yes, criticism of Israel is now officially defined as anti-semitism.

[00:13:50]>> Yeah. Absolutely. And Bobby Kennedy, who many dissident supported for president, put anti-semitism as the supposed top public health crisis in the United States in several tweets. This is what it's about. It's allegiance to Israel.

[00:14:06]And that tweet from Apac wasn't even, I think, as necessarily gerine to the situation as this one. straight from the blood soaked horse's mouth when they talked about that Edgar Rain and Clay Fuller were replaced with pro-Israel voices. They're saying this in the open where we would be smeared as anti-semmites if you say that this was what that election was about. That's what the litmus test was about. Our community was proud to help pro-Israel candidates win these races. They say it right up close and personal, but if you or I say it, critics of Israel say it, we're smeared. That's a conspiracy theory. That's a blood liel. All this nonsense because it was never about Jew hatred to them. It was never about engaging in blood liel. They don't care about that. If you're part of the Israel lobby and pushing what they want and you say this, it's just fine because you're on the side of Israel. But if you say this and you're not part of the lobby, they smear you because again, it's only been about allegiance to Israel, that which Massie doesn't have. And that's why they took him out.

[00:15:11]So when they tell you you're committing anti-semitism, what they're saying is you're critical of a foreign nation. And that's now a crime.

[00:15:18]And rather than explain to you why it's so important and so good for you and the grandchildren you hope to have to support Israel, like you should get on board. There's a great deal. Israel's awesome. Here's how they help us. Here's why you should be all in in Israel.

[00:15:33]Here's why the thousands of children they've murdered in Gaza deserve to be killed. Cuz they were future terrorists.

[00:15:39]you know, make your case. If you have a case, make it. Tell us what you think.

[00:15:43]Instead of doing that, the Trump administration is taking the position that noticing is hate. Just noticing it. That's hate.

[00:15:53]It's anti-semitism. It's a crime.

[00:15:56]That's the official message from the Department of Justice, which is using your tax dollars to intimidate you into shutting up about something that Apac is bragging about publicly.

[00:16:07]>> Exactly. If you notice it, you're a criminal. But if they boast about it, they being Apac, they need to be supported at all costs. That's literally the message from the regime, from the corporate establishment, from the political establishment on both sides of the aisle. You notice, you're a deviant.

[00:16:24]If they notice and broadcast it and boast about it, they're heroes worth supporting. That's literally the message they're delivering.

[00:16:36]It's hard to know what this is. I mean, clearly it's not a sincere effort to reduce anti-semitism.

[00:16:43]If if you're going to jin up anti-semitism, if you're going to make people feel bitter, if you wanted people to blame their problems on Jews, whoever they are, this is exactly what you would do, of course. So, it's not an effort to reduce anti-semitism. And you wouldn't have Leo Terrell, the Fox News contributor with 11 IRS leans against him. That's your public servant. Really? You wouldn't have that guy leading a multi-ity tour to screech at you about how you're a bad person for not liking Israel. And by the way, possibly a criminal for not liking Israel. You wouldn't attack the only truly sacred right this country protects, which is the freedom of speech on behalf of a foreign country if you were trying to eliminate anti-semitism. Of course not.

[00:17:31]This is something else. This is a humiliation exercise. This is designed to let you know that there is now a cast system in place under which skepticism of one group is a lot more serious than skepticism of another group.

[00:17:46]>> Yeah, that's what this is. is and it's something that Max Blumenthal talks about a lot. It's actually that the Israel lobby actually likes anti-semitism and in some ways has gone about encouraging anti-semitism. Why?

[00:18:00]Because they harness propaganda that all critics of Israel are like these other guys that are smearing people on the basis of religion or ethnicity. and they harness that, take that in, and it actually works to convince many of the masses to get on board with this, to reject the proposals of anyone pointing out the truth. Even when it comes to things that Apac, Miriam Aden, Trump, and Netanyahu are boasting about. They harness that propaganda in ways that can direct the American public to supporting causes they want. So, it's actually that it's not that they oppose anti-semitism.

[00:18:35]Sometimes they pretend to in terms of the propaganda they actively encourage it to make this possible to bring their wars to fruition to bring their genocide against the Palestinians to fruition.

[00:18:48]This is what they do. This is who they are. This is what we're up against. This is what all dissidents on the left and the right are up against right now.

[00:18:55]Another word for this that was very common on Fox News and in fact it emerged many times from Donald Trump's mouth was identity politics. That's identity politics.

[00:19:03]We should instead have politics based on citizenship. If you're a citizen, you are equal to me under the law. There are no distinctions beyond that. God may make distinctions beyond that. But we're not God. We're a government. And in our government, the people own the country.

[00:19:19]They are shareholders in this enterprise. And you treat them all the same until proven otherwise. That's our justice system. You can criticize anyone you want equally. Every American citizen is allowed to use the same words regardless of what his parents look like because we don't have casts because we're not India.

[00:19:38]>> Yeah, I'm sorry to say this is where I diverge. And I know Tucker is speaking in the ideal here, but that's not our system. There is multi-t justice system. And on the top tier that has more rights and privileges than anyone else is associates of Jeffrey Epstein and those willing to cover up his crimes and his sex trafficking ring.

[00:19:58]That's our justice system. And it's not just that. It's in terms of war. The country, the government of the country, including the president, can unilaterally launch murder sprees in other parts of the world. That if we launched a murder spree, we would rightly go behind bars for life in many of these cases. We don't have all the same rights and abilities to do things that would apply to all people. It's just not what we have. I wish we had that. I wish there was real equality under the law. But the fact is that any government is just a monopoly on violence. They have a monopoly on force.

[00:20:36]The usage of force against people, whether it be through murder, fraud, embezzlement, they can extract wealth from everyday Americans. If we did that, it's theft. If they have an IRS badge, it's perfectly acceptable. That's the society under which we live. I wish it wasn't so. And again, Tucker, I know, is speaking in the ideal, but that's not what we have.

[00:20:59]We reject identity politics. That was the promise. That's why BLM was wrong.

[00:21:03]All of a sudden, you had to worship black people like gods rather than just treating them like friends or neighbors or citizens or just people cuz that's what they are. That's what every person is. It's just a person.

[00:21:13]Good on a good day, bad on a bad day, smarter, taller, richer, poorer, shorter, fatter, you know, different in some ways, but fundamentally all the same and equal under the law.

[00:21:25]Because this country is governed the same way heaven is governed by universal principles. If something is wrong, it is wrong for everyone. If something is okay, it's okay for everyone. We don't make those distinctions because when we do, it's called corruption.

[00:21:42]That's what corruption is. Different rules for me than for you. But all of a sudden, you have, led by this administration, the one that Charlie Kirk and I were so hopeful about in church that morning in January of last year, you have the most aggressive and the most threatening outbreak of identity politics maybe in this country's history.

[00:22:05]You have the Justice Department endorsing the idea that criticism of foreign nation is potentially a crime.

[00:22:10]And you have certain states banning it like Florida under Ronda Santis. No, that's a hate crime. You can't criticize that country or our relationship with it. At the very same time, the people encouraging you to go along with this and threatening you if you don't are bragging that everything you're not allowed to say is in fact true.

[00:22:29]That's all this is. It's a way to make it really clear.

[00:22:33]Yeah, I think that's right. This is a form of identity politics. Remember that concept that the American right was supposed to be so against? But when it comes to identity politics directed toward Zionist, toward the Israeli government, toward Jews on the basis of ethnicity or religion, those are the special carveouts that you're not only expected to endorse, but the DOJ is going to enforce laws on behalf of.

[00:22:59]That's what we have here. It is identity politics. It's the brand that's acceptable to the right, just as though there's a brand acceptable to the American left. then it's really liberals, not good leftists that see through all this absurd, odious nonsense. And there are right-wing dissident that see through this nonsense, too. But this is the type of toxic politics that just gets acceptable no matter who carries the torch within the federal government. No matter who is elected president, it's not someone that is keen to our desires. It's someone that's keen to the interests of the national lobbies that fill their coffers with money as they're campaigning. It's the Rathons and Loheed Martins. It's the JP Morgans and Bank of America. It's the Apex of the world. It's the Epstein class. It's Miriam Adlesen, Paul Singer, John Paulson, Ronald Lauder. It's the Federal Reserve Bank. These are the people that Trump and the political establishment want to satisfy. And they say Israel first. And Trump, no matter how much he bloiated about loving the idea of America first, that Americanism will be our credo, not globalism. That was one of his most famous statements in, I believe, his first campaign. You you can just betray that once you get in. You're not beholden to the people, their interests. You don't even have to pretend to adhere to their interests anymore, as Trump doesn't. Just asked a few days ago what he thinks about the financial situation of the average American. literally just says, "I don't care about it. I don't care about that at all. I have a war to manage. I'm going to manage that war." I don't think about their financial system and their financial well-being at all. And I just got to say, he's colluding with the Democrats. The Democrats just need to play that clip over and over and over in 2026. It's all they need to do. Play that clip over and over and over.

[00:24:52]They'll walk into power. It's literally Trump shaking the hand of AOC and Gavin Newsome and Gretchen Whitmer saying this is your office. This is your presidency now. This is your government now. That's what he's doing. And I wrote a biography on Thomas Payne and one of the things he writes about in common sense is how we aren't beholdened to kings on earth. The the the experiment of having a king has been bad since at least Saul in the Old Testament. God gave the Israelites what they were clamoring for, a king like other nations had. And he was full of avarice and ambition and corruption. And that was the ultimate indictment on the concept of a king. And in America, unlike the British, and this was one of the ways to justify the break from Britain and to have an independent America, independent American colonies, was to say in America, the law is king.

[00:25:47]and as such implying that we should be equal under the law. We don't have someone dictating our affairs like a king. But in the Washington establishment, they want the American king to be the prevailing government of Israel, especially when it comes to foreign policy, launching these wars, supporting these atrocities, making excuses for it back home, and if that's not enough, allowing it to spill over into domestic politics. You're going to send DOJ guntoing thugs to harass the citizenry for their critiques of Israel.

[00:26:18]It wouldn't be unlike what we see in Great Britain and other places. It's unacceptable. It's unamerican. It's in fact the most unamerican thing you can possibly think of. It's not America first. It's Israel first. But that's what's being delivered by this government that take out honest patriots like Joe Kent and Marjgery Taylor Green and Thomas Massie while standing align alongside blood soaked maniacs like Mark Leavvin, Ben Shapiro, Lindsey Graham, and Ted Cruz. That's what you have. I think Tucker mostly nails it here. I believe in the ideals he speaks about, but that's not the ideals we get through government and adhering to any faction of the current government. No matter whether you have one or two heroes or not, like Thomas Massie, it's a criminal government and it's that way for a reason because that's the nature of government. But what do you guys think?
