Tucker Carlson's Feud with Trump Intensifies as He Challenges Neoconservative Policies

Tucker Carlson has made headlines this week after escalating a major feud with President Donald Trump, as reported by AOL, following Carlson’s sharp criticism of Trump’s recent support for Israeli military actions in Iran. In his latest newsletter, Carlson accused Trump of being “complicit” in the deadly strikes, arguing that years of arming Israel placed the former president at the center of those events. Trump quickly fired back to reporters, dismissing Carlson’s influence and saying, “no one is paying attention to the former Fox News host or his concerns about Israel’s military action in Iran.” Trump challenged Carlson to get his own television network if he wants to be heard by a wider audience. Carlson’s newsletters and social media channels continue to drive conversation on the American right, especially on foreign policy, where he positions himself in direct opposition to the neoconservative establishment. Responsible Statecraft highlights how Carlson has openly feuded with conservative commentator Mark Levin over Iran, accusing Levin of trying to push the U.S. into another Middle East conflict. Carlson’s opposition to foreign military interventions has become a defining feature of his messaging, and his posts about Levin’s lobbying against Iran have reached millions online, underscoring his continued ability to shape debate in Republican and populist circles. In terms of his current ventures, The Rebooting reports that Carlson has leaned fully into alternative media, bypassing institutional news outlets to build a parallel media infrastructure online. He’s been using his highly followed platforms to promote not only his political commentary but also a lineup of sponsor-driven content, ranging from tobacco alternatives to prepper kits and various direct-to-consumer products, reflecting a business model increasingly common among right-leaning independent media figures. Carlson is also known for both interviewing and being interviewed by influencers from across the political spectrum, further cementing his role as a central figure in the new populist information landscape. Reactions to Carlson remain polarized. Supporters praise his anti-establishment stances and willingness to challenge Republican orthodoxy, while critics, including traditional conservatives and Trump loyalists, view his attacks on neoconservatives and on Trump’s foreign policy as divisive. The ongoing public debate between Carlson, Trump, and right-wing figures like Mark Levin illustrates how deep the internal divisions have become within conservative media and politics. No significant legal actions or new professional troubles involving Carlson have surfaced in the past few days. However, the broader implications of his feud with Trump and his increasing isolation from both the mainstream right and his former Fox News colleagues suggest that Carlson’s influence—while substantial in certain online communities—may be growing more niche, even as it remains fiery and impactful.
