Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson paid a visit to President Donald Trump in the Oval Office on Friday, and several conservatives are outraged that he was allowed to do so.
Carlson has stunned and angered many conservatives in recent months over his escalating attacks on Christians and Jews, along with cozying up to Muslims, and even announcing he was buying property in Qatar.
This is at least Carlson’s second recent visit to the White House. He was seen in attendance when President Trump hosted a roundtable meeting with several top oil executives on Friday, January 9.

At the same time Tucker Carlson was being broadcast all over Iran by the regime, he was a guest at President Trump’s meeting in the White House East Room with oil company executives.

Daily Caller co-founder Neil Patel, who is a business associate of Carlson, posted two photos Friday, January 16 of Carlson and wrote “Look who was back in the Oval Office today.”

TeamDML founder and podcast host Dennis Michael Lynch commented on another photo of Carlson standing beside President Trump and warned, “And this photo is officially the start of a primary season for 2028. It is as horrible as the one he took with Mamdani.”

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) declared, “Tucker Carlson should have no place in the White House. He’s amplified and platformed antisemitic narratives for years.”

Journalist Laura Loomer wrote, “Every time Tucker Carlson visits the White House, JD Vance gets less support for 2028. Has he read the comments online? I have tried to convey this to the VP. Read the room. Tucker Carlson is very bad for @JDVance’s 2028 Presidential prospects. When will it sink in?”
it won’t sink in

Loomer added in another post, “Elevating Tucker Carlson is the quickest way to get @GavinNewsom as President in 2028. Tucker’s fanboys are all in business together with Muslims, so they will never tell you or @POTUS the truth. Of course people who make money together are defending each other. All roads lead to Doha.”

Loomer also speculated:
Notice how Tucker Carlson’s business partner took a photo of @marcorubio with @TuckerCarlson today, pretending like Marco wanted to meet with Tucker. This is being done on purpose because a lot of people are talking about Marco running for President in 2028, and Marco and President Trump are watching football together this weekend. Tucker is trying to sabotage Marco Rubio because his star is rising.
Everyone saw the negative press Tucker brought to JD Vance, so now Tucker’s staff are trying to dirty up Marco Rubio with Tucker’s hatred of Jews and his love of Sharia Law.
I doubt Marco Rubio agrees with Tucker’s nonsense. This photo was posted on purpose to try to damage Rubio. Rubio didn’t go out of his way to meet with Tucker. Rubio has also said Hamas is a terrorist organization. Tucker said Hamas isn’t a terrorist org. This is a dirty move by @NeilPatelTDC. Rubio should protect himself.
