Tucker’s latest rant is a textbook example of scapegoating. He asks why we “talk about Israel” instead of why kids can’t afford homes — as if Jewish people or support for Israel somehow caused America’s housing crisis. That’s not analysis. That’s an old dog whistle dressed up as populism....

Tucker: "Neocons" like Ben Shapiro only care about money for Israel. Fuentes: Jews like Shapiro are only "here" to... get money for Israel. Tucker didn't just interview Fuentes; he has adopted his language and framing, but with "neocons" instead of Jews. In the clips below, both use ad hominem attacks to escape engaging any actual argument over the efficacy of U.S. support for Israel. Of course, Fuentes and Tucker utilize the oldest of anti-Semitic tropes, the notion of Jews (or "neocons") having dual loyalties, which has been weaponized for thousands of years to sow distrust and eventually hatred for thousands of years. Opposing financial support of Israel is an entirely legitimate position that can easily be justified using conservative principles. Plenty of conservatives have been opposed to the U.S. annual military aid to Israel, including figures as diverse as Rand Paul and, yes, Ben Shapiro. Maybe that's why the primary defense of Tucker by Megyn Kelly and others has been that he's somehow just "criticizing Israel." But when Fuentes said in 2023 that Shapiro, Dennis Prager, Mark Levin, and Joel Pollak "are running American media" and are "here (apparently living in the U.S.) to make sure Americans support the country they really care about," what possible argument is he making about policy? The same holds true when Tucker Carlson just this month said that "Shapiro and all of these guys" don't "care" about their own audiences "at all" (or, by implication, America at large) because their supposed tactic is "give us money for our preferred little country, or we're going to denounce you!" Put another way, what could Fuentes or Tucker possibly be trying to advance besides the notion that the views of Shapiro/Jews/"neocons" should not be trusted on any issue, even those having nothing to do with Israel?

BREAKING: Tucker Carlson just unleashed one of the dumbest rants I’ve ever seen about Bill Ackman . First, he hinted Ackman was some kind of “sex creep.” Then, he mocked him for becoming wealthy by being “well connected and aggressive.” What the hell is Tucker even talking about? That’s literally how capitalism works. Nobody gets rich by hiding in their basement. You build wealth by hustling, being aggressive, and building connections. That’s how you raise money, find investors, and actually get businesses off the ground. The craziest part is Tucker pretends he’s defending the free market while bashing the very qualities that make the free market function. Total contradiction. And whatever you think of Bill Ackman, the guy has actually contributed. Through Pershing Square he’s backed some of America’s biggest companies, helping them grow and employ thousands. He’s donated hundreds of millions through his foundation to education, health, and research. And unlike most billionaires who stay quiet, he’s been willing to speak up publicly, even when it costs him. Meanwhile Tucker has reduced his entire platform to smearing Israel day after day. He isn’t building anything, he isn’t offering solutions, he’s just recycling the same tired talking points to rile people up. That’s his whole brand now. The irony is he only made it himself by being well connected and aggressive. He grew up wealthy, had doors opened for him, and clawed his way into media by being loud. Exactly what he’s mocking Ackman for….

How Inflation Forces People to Use Houses as a Savings Vehicle Saifedean Ammous explains how inflation (which is caused by governments / banks increasing the money supply by interest credit expansion) which leads to the loss of fiat money’s value, has changed the way people think about housing. In the past, under a scarce money standard money held its value better, so people could save for the future by simply saving in gold. For example, a gold coin could sit under a mattress for years and still hold its value. You can't do that today with easily created fiat government money. Today, with inflation causing money to lose value people need to find other ways to store their wealth / purchasing power. Holding fiat cash or government interest bearing bonds means losing purchasing power in the long term, so many turn to real estate. Ammous argues that this has led people to treat houses as savings accounts, even though houses are consumer goods, not true investments. A house doesn’t produce anything; it’s something you use, like a car or a washing machine, it just lasts longer. This change is a direct result of inflation. Since money no longer holds its value, people feel forced to buy houses to protect their savings which they spent time and energy to work for and save. Instead of keeping cash in the bank, they buy a house. As inflation drives the value of money down, house prices go up in fiat terms. This creates the illusion of making money, but in reality it's an indication that the money we are forced to use by nation states is losing value every year. Ammous highlights the impact this has on young people. When someone in their 20s or 30s tries to buy a home, they’re not just competing with others their age. They’re also up against older people or investors who see houses as better options than holding cash. These investors might be dentists, architects,doctors ,or other professionals who don’t actually want to be landlords but buy homes and rent them out because it’s a way to escape inflation. This pushes house prices even higher, making it harder for young people to afford homes. Ammous also points out that treating houses as financial assets affects how they’re built. Developers prioritize profit over quality or beauty, leading to homes that lack character or durability. Houses are no longer designed as places to live and enjoy but as tools for storing wealth and beating inflation. This is a HUGE problem.

🚨DEBT CRISIS: Why Are We Funding Israel While Drowning in $34 Trillion Ourselves? Let this sink in: The United States has spent over $30 BILLION defending Israel in just the last 2 years alone. And over the last 75+ years? 👉 $300 BILLION+ of YOUR taxpayer money has gone to support one foreign country. That’s not a typo. $300 billion. Israel is the single largest recipient of U.S. aid in history — no one else even comes close. So next time someone tells you, “It’s just a drop in the bucket,” they’re either lying to your face or completely ignorant of the numbers. Meanwhile here at home: 🇺🇸 We’re $34 TRILLION in debt 🚨 Our border is a disaster 🏚️ Cities are collapsing under crime & homelessness 🧓 Veterans are sleeping on the street 💰 Inflation is crushing working families 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Americans are taxed to the bone just to get by And yet... politicians from BOTH parties are writing blank checks for endless foreign conflicts — while ignoring the crisis in our own country. Why is Israel’s security more important than yours? Why are American troops protecting their skies while ours are invaded daily? Why are we sacrificing our future for a country that’s not even in our hemisphere? This isn’t about left vs. right. It’s about AMERICA FIRST — and waking up before there’s nothing left to defend at home. Our money. Our soldiers. Our future. 🇺🇸 Not for sale. Not anymore.

THE PATHETIC MYTH OF KENYA’S SO-CALLED “OLD MONEY” Let’s get one thing straight: there’s no such thing as “old money” in Kenya, or most of East Africa for that matter. What we have instead is a grotesque parade of self-styled elites, strutting around with bloated egos and ill-gotten wealth, pretending their stolen fortunes qualify them for some aristocratic badge of honor. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t. If your grandfather didn’t build an industry, invent something groundbreaking, or at least run a legitimate factory, you’re not old money. You’re just the lucky spawn of a corrupt hustler who hit the jackpot in the cesspool of Kenyan politics. Let’s talk about these so-called “old money” families. Their wealth didn’t come from ingenuity or hard work. No, no. Their fortunes were cobbled together through land theft, shady tenderpreneurship, and the kind of brazen corruption that leaves entire communities homeless and destitute. These are the people who’ve been fleecing Kenya for decades, snatching public resources like vultures and leaving nothing but misery in their wake. And yet, they have the audacity to parade their stolen riches as some kind of legacy? Please. For instance, will our children refer to an idiot like George Ruo old money in the years to come? Don’t make me laugh. His money is as old as the last bribe they pocketed or the last plot of land they grabbed from a vulnerable community. These are the architects of Kenya’s suffering, the ones who’ve built empires on the backs of the poor, all while cloaking themselves in the shiny veneer of “success.” If we had a functional government, one that actually cared about justice - these crooks would be stripped of their loot faster than you can say “offshore account.” Their so-called wealth would vanish, and they’d be left with nothing but their tattered reputations. Compare that to real old money, the kind you see in places like the U.S. Take the Cadillacs, for instance, who started a grain processing plant back in the 1800s and turned it into one of the world’s largest agricultural empires. Or Ford, whose name is synonymous with innovation and industry. Those families built something. They created jobs, drove progress, and left a legacy that’s actually worth celebrating. Their wealth is rooted in effort, ideas, and tangible contributions to society - not in looting public coffers or swindling land from defenseless communities like the Kenyatta Family Criminal Enterprise (KFCE). But in Kenya? The “old money” crowd is a different breed. Their great-granddaddy didn’t have a brilliant idea that changed the world. No, their daddy was probably an MP who siphoned off the entire constituency budget, stashed it in some shady offshore account, or “invested” it in a string of dubious businesses. That’s not wealth; that’s theft dressed up in a fancy suit. Trace their money, and you’ll find a trail of tears - stolen land, rigged tenders, and a legacy of greed that’s left Kenya poorer for it. So, let’s stop pretending. There’s no old money in Kenya, just old corruption. These people aren’t tycoons; they’re thieves who belong behind bars, not on pedestals. The next time someone tries to flex their “old money” credentials, remind them: real wealth builds, creates, and uplifts. Theirs just destroys. And if a truly transformative government ever takes charge, one that puts Kenyans first, these frauds will be exposed for what they are - nothing more than glorified looters hiding behind a myth.

Dick Carlson, Tucker's dad, loved Israel. I should know. I was with him in Israel for 10 straight days. Every bus ride, every tour, every meal. At Yad Vashem, I'll never forget what he said: "Thank God the Jews have Israel." Dick Carlson knew that Jews have faced unique threats throughout history, and that Israel was necessary to protect Jews everywhere. I know that because he told me that. Not long after we returned from Israel, I started working for FDD, where he was already. We would have lunch every month or two for years. I can say without reservation that when it comes to Israel and the Jews, Tucker Carlson is no Dick Carlson. Dick Carlson supported Israel. Dick Carlson hated Hamas. Dick Carlson called "Radical Islam" an "enemy of the United States and of the West." Dick Carlson didn't question the patriotism of Jews who supported Israel. Dick Carlson didn't hate Christians who supported Israel, not least because he was one of them. Dick Carlson didn't insist that Jews needed to take DNA tests to prove that they're actually Jews. Dick Carlson never slandered "Zionists" by saying that they "don't care about America" or accused them of having "not much of a soul." Dick Carlson, in fact, rarely used the word "Zionist," even though he worked with many of them. And, of course, he was a Zionist himself. How did Dick Carlson describe the Jewish state? "Israel is a country under siege. And it's a democracy in a part of the world where there are no democracies." If you're looking for a north star to help you understand Israel and the Muslim world, you could do a lot worse than the late, great Dick Carlson. Like, for instance, his son Tucker.

Israel And Its Supporters Are Causing Attacks On Jewish Institutions Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt gave a bizarre appearance on CNN in response to an attempted car bombing of a Michigan synagogue by a man whose Lebanese family members were killed by Israeli forces. “We are seeing Jewish people, the Jewish state, blamed for the war in the Middle East,” Greenblatt said. “That is wrong. It is wrong to scapegoat, it is wrong to hold Jewish people accountable for something you don’t like on the other side of the planet. And we really need leaders on all sides in politics, running for office, podcasters, to stop with the conspiracies, to stop with the accusations, and then tell us ‘but we oppose antisemitism’. You don’t get to say you’re opposed to hate if you’re trafficking in hateful conspiracy theories.” Now, at first glance it this might read like Greenblatt is taking the entirely reasonable position that it is wrong to blame Jewish Americans for the actions of the Israeli government. But take a closer look at his use of the phrase “the Jewish state”. What Greenblatt is actually doing here is claiming it’s an antisemitic conspiracy theory to blame the state of Israel for its war crimes, while simultaneously lumping all Jewish people in with the actions of that state. That’s what he’s doing when he says “Jewish people, the Jewish state” in the same breath while talking about Israeli acts of mass military violence. It’s so obnoxious how genocide apologists like Greenblatt make a living actively telling everyone that Jews and Judaism are inseparable from the acts of the Israeli government, but whenever there’s an extremist attack by someone who doesn’t distinguish between western Jews and the state of Israel it gets blamed on the pro-Palestine left. Pro-Palestine leftists perform endless verbal gymnastics to avoid conflating Jewish people with the state of Israel, while Israel and its supporters conflate them constantly. Yet we’re always the ones who get blamed whenever there’s a terror attack on a Jewish institution by someone enraged by Israel’s actions. Zionists are the ones doing everything they can to make sure people see the state of Israel as synonymous with Jews and Judaism. That is what they are doing every time they claim a criticism of Israel’s actions is hate speech against Jews. They are claiming that the nation and its government are one and the same as the entirety of the Jewish faith and its adherents. Pro-Palestine leftists have been doing the exact opposite. We go to great pains to make sure all our arguments are carefully worded to avoid being interpreted as an attack on the Jewish faith, making it clear that our grievance is with the state of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism which supports that state’s abusive nature. And then Israel apologists come in and smear those meticulously crafted arguments as a hateful attack on all Jews everywhere. Zionists are therefore responsible for the growing perception that our Jewish neighbors and countrymen are culpable for the abuses of the Israeli government. When more attacks on Jewish institutions occur (and they will), it is Israel and its supporters who will hold the blame for this, not the pro-Palestine left. I am not saying attacks on Jewish institutions should happen. I am not saying it will be good when they do happen. I’m saying it will happen, and when it happens it will be a terrible thing. And it will be the fault of Israel and its supporters. We’ve been running around like crazy trying to stop this, falling all over ourselves to thwart the Zionist efforts to conflate Jews with Israel, but our voices aren’t strong enough. We’re not the ones getting loudly amplified by every mass media outlet, they are. It’s not people like me getting invited to appear on CNN to talk to Wolf Blitzer, it’s people like Jonathan Greenblatt. So when we lose the narrative war on this front and the next extremist attack occurs, it won’t be our fault. It will be theirs. It will be the fault of Israel and its apologists. We fought them as hard as we could to prevent this, but they won. And the consequences of this will therefore rest squarely on their shoulders.

A grant of $500,000 toward a housing deposit may sound attractive, but if there are no houses available to purchase, all it does is drive up prices, making housing even more unaffordable for everyone. Good policy must go beyond political appeal; it must address the root of the problem. While financial support like grants and mortgage subsidies may help individuals in the short term, they do nothing to resolve the underlying shortage of housing stock. That’s why this Government has focused on the supply side of the housing equation. We are building more homes. 2,064 new housing units are being added to the national stock. These are opportunities for young professionals, retirees, low-income earners, and persons living with disabilities to access decent, affordable shelter. A sound housing policy must be rooted in equity and efficiency. It must ensure that at least one person is made better off, without making anyone else worse off. This is the standard of good governance. When policies are not carefully structured, they can unintentionally deepen inequalities, even when they sound generous. We must also think about fairness. Should we offer grants only to the young, while ignoring those who have worked hard for decades but still do not own a home? Housing policy must reflect the diversity of need in our society, not just age, but income, location, and circumstance. Ultimately, our priority must be to build more houses, particularly affordable homes, because only then can we meet growing demand without distorting the market. Once supply increases, targeted assistance becomes more effective and less inflationary. This is the approach we are taking: build more houses, ensure equitable access, and manage support wisely. That is how we secure Jamaica’s housing future.

🚨DENNIS KUCINICH: US🇺🇸 MUST STOP SENDING MONEY TO ISRAEL, ISRAELI ‘SETTLERS’ ARE THIEVES ‘Public opinion in the United States should be shifting against what Israel is doing in Gaza, that it is genocide, and that every Israeli official who’s involved in it must be held to an account. But it has to stop. You know that and we have to stop fueling it. The US must stop sending any money at all to Israel. And we have to use our influence, if we have any influence, with Israel to stop the genocide and to come up with a way to secure the future for all Palestinians, Gaza or the West Bank. A looming problem is this settlers. I don’t know why you call them settlers because actually if somebody goes into somebody’s house with a gun and just steals their home, that’s called a thief, it’s not called a settler. And we really need the United States to change our relationship with Israel. And this is the people in the United States are ready for that. When they see these settlers getting healthcare and support for housing. What? There’s people in the United States that can’t afford their rent. They’re having trouble making ends meet. Their mortgage payments are ballooning. People can’t send their kids to the college that they were hoping to. The young people can’t get jobs.’ -Former Congressman and former Mayor of Cleveland, Ohio Dennis Kucinich on the latest episode of Going Underground FULL INTERVIEW BELOW IN THE REPLIES👇 Dennis Kucinich
