Ben Shapiro: “Tucker [Carlson] has his conspiracy theory and he's sticking to it. And the idea is that the United States government is controlled by the Jews.”

Shapiro: “Megyn Kelly has also jumped on this bandwagon apparently for the clicks and giggles of it”

BEN SHAPIRO (HOST): So, one of the things that's fascinating about Tucker's show yesterday is he barely mentioned the man who is in charge of the war and declared it, the president of the United States, because Tucker is a coward. He is a coward. Let me express again, the president of the United States is the one who commands the armed services of The United States.

If Tucker wants to claim that Donald J Trump is a tool of the Jews, which is clearly what he wants to say, he should just say it, but he's a coward. Not only is he a coward, he's a disseminator of absolute lies. Lies so bad that his Qatari handlers could not even justify the lies. So yesterday on his show, Tucker put out the bizarre theory that Mossad agents had been arrested in Qatar and Saudi Arabia trying to bomb targets, which, of course, makes zero sense since Qatar, Saudi, and Israel are on the same side of this war. But here he was yesterday making a claim so overtly false that the government of Qatar -- again, he's best friends with those people. He's got a nice house in Qatar apparently. Even they had to say they didn't know what the hell he was talking about.

...

SHAPIRO: You might wanna slow down on those Alp pouches, bud. I mean, seriously. Because what the actual f are you talking about? Now, we know what he's trying to do there. Tucker is trying to suggest that pretty much all attacks on everyone outside of Israel is a false flag operation. That's what he's clearly trying to suggest there. And I find it strangely suspicious that just a few hours later, the US embassy in Riyadh was attacked by drones according to the Saudi defense forces. OK — so just a few hours after Tucker suggested that a false flag would basically occur in Saudi, there was a drone attack in Saudi from the Iranians according to the Saudis. Strange. Very — very strange.

But let's be real. Tucker has his conspiracy theory and he's sticking to it. And the idea is that the United States government is controlled by the Jews. That is essentially the claim that he is making. Megyn Kelly has also jumped on this bandwagon apparently for the clicks and giggles of it.
