In a recent interview at the World Government Summit in Dubai, Tucker Carlson laid into the Biden administration like a hungry man at a buffet. He had a bone to pick with U.S. intelligence agencies, accusing them of actively working against him in his efforts to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin. “The US government prevented me from doing it by spying on my text messages and leaking them to the New York Times,” Carlson claimed. “My country’s intel services were working against me illegally, and that enraged me.” Oh boy, sounds like someone’s got some serious beef with the Big Brother!
But Tucker didn’t stop there. He went on to give a scathing critique of the current administration, asserting that the president is senile. “I think that the current administration is very obviously incompetent and the president is senile. That’s not an attack. Everyone knows it,” he declared. Well, that’s one way to put it, Tucker.
Tucker Carlson: “I think that the current Administration is very obviously incompetent and that the President is senile… Everyone knows it. It has now been confirmed this week.”

His comments came on the heels of a comprehensive report released last Thursday by Robert Hur, detailing instances of mismanagement of sensitive information by the president. The report suggests that Biden’s memory appears to be suffering from “significant limitations.” Carlson, ever the provocateur, used this as fodder for his critique.

Tucker also shared his motivation for wanting to interview Putin, emphasizing his desire to challenge the constraints imposed on him by his own government. In the highly anticipated interview, Putin made several noteworthy claims, including the assertion that the CIA was responsible for the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline.
Carlson ended his speech with a dire warning about the alignment of media with government, saying, “Media information in a free country is a counterbalance against entrenched power… So if sources of information, media outlets align with entrenched power, then you have a powerless population and it’s totalitarian.”
