Tucker Carlson Columbus

When talking about Indigenous Peoples Day, Tucker Carlson sounds just like a white supremacist

Written by John Kerr

Published 10/14/19 10:32 AM EDT

As more people realize Christopher Columbus' legacy of genocide and slavery, a growing number of municipalities are moving away from Columbus Day and celebrating Indigenous Peoples Day instead.

Furious at this evolution, Fox host Tucker Carlson has railed against Indigenous Peoples Day and in favor of Columbus Day. In doing so, his racist arguments are ripped from white supremacist Jared Taylor.

This is not the first time Carlson has echoed white supremacists. In fact, the Fox prime-time host has fully embraced white nationalism over the years.
