Tucker Carlson says he’s launching his own paid streaming service

Tucker Carlson is debuting his own subscription streaming service called the Tucker Carlson Network, with the former Fox News host charging $9 a month for interviews, documentaries and "access to Tucker's personal inbox to ask him anything that's on your mind."In a video clip posted to his website on Monday, Carlson said the show was prompted by a sense that "something big is coming," including the 2024 presidential election and "entire populations" that are migrating to new locations. He also downplayed his former employer Fox News and its rivals, saying that "big media companies won't help" his fans understand current trends."Suddenly everything seems at stake — control of the world, and your soul," Tucker said. The move to offer pai...

Maggie Haberman Dishes On ‘Tucker Carlson As Vice President’ Rumor

New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman said she believes there’s at least some substance to the rumor that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson may be in contention to become Donald Trump’s running mate, should the former president become the GOP’s 2024 nominee.During a podcast interview with The Dispatch’s Jamie Weinstein released on Monday, Weinstein asked Haberman if “Tucker Carlson as vice president” is “a real thing that you’re hearing as a possibility or is that floated by maybe people around Tucker?”“It’s a real thing that I am hearing as a possibility,” Haberman replied. “The likelihood of it, I don’t know.”“I think there will be a pretty professionalized vetting process, honestly,” she continued. “I know that that might sound unbelievable based on what we’ve seen from Trump histo...

Tucker Carlson and Glenn Beck Discuss Stopping the Deep State, Laugh at Asa Hutchinson – RedState

The Family Leadership Summit in Iowa was an interesting test for the Republican presidential candidates who appeared. They all had to go through the Tucker Carlson gauntlet, and he was not easy on them. Some did better than others. Some, like former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and former Vice President Mike Pence, imploded with their answers and were getting blasted on social media — Hutchinson for his comments about child gender transitions and Pence for his comments about Ukraine and Jan. 6. You could also tell that Pence was mad at Carlson which also didn’t help him. The one who seemed to come out on top was Tucker Carlson. Except for the implosions, I’m not sure that any of the candidates truly helped themselves, or would have their appearances give them a breakout move, except per...

Four Months After His Ukraine Stumble, DeSantis Offers Tucker Carlson Word Salad Instead

DES MOINES, Iowa ― Four months after getting tripped up in a Tucker Carlson questionnaire about Ukraine that forced a quick backtrack, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) on Friday at the 2023 Family Leadership Summit dealt with the same topic by the same inquisitor with seven minutes of non-answer.DeSantis talked about his time spent in Iraq as a Navy lawyer, about the Mexican border and how many migrants are crossing illegally, about how fentanyl traffickers would end up “stone cold dead” if he were in office, how it’s humiliating that the United States is running low on ammunition, how the real threat was China, and how in Florida they have banned the purchase of land by the Chinese communist party.“I think the goal should be to have sustainable peace in Europe. OK, we don’t want there to be...

Looks Like Tucker Carlson Wants to Make Some Actual Money Off His Twitter Show

Just over a month after kicking off his new Twitter show, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson is already working to raise hundreds of millions of dollars for a media company of his own, according to a Friday report from The Wall Street Journal. The new venture would allow Carlson—who lost his Fox show in April but remains under contract with the network through December of next year—to build upon his independently produced online show, per the Journal, by offering longer videos for paying subscribers.Presumably, this could involve the use of Twitter’s relatively new subscription product, which allows creators to host subscriber-only content and cash in on membership fees. While members of Carlson’s team recently met with Twitter representatives to discuss the pending project, they are als...

Asa Hutchinson’s Interview With Tucker Carlson in Iowa Turns Into an Absolute Disaster, Glenn Beck Gives Hilarious Reaction – RedState

While Ron DeSantis stands to be the most anticipated participant at Iowa’s Family Leadership Summit on Friday, Asa Hutchinson may have already produced the most viral exchanges. In what can only be described as an abject disaster, the 2024 hopeful sparred with Tucker Carlson, the on-stage interviewer at the forum. The main point of contention came from a discussion on the transitioning of children under the guise of “gender-affirming care.” The history behind this is that Hutchinson vetoed a bill in 2021 that would have prevented the mutilation of children through surgical and chemical means, including things like hormone and puberty blockers. That set off a firestorm on the right, who saw it as a surrender to those in the transgender lobby. Hutchinson then ruffled feathers further by ...
