In Episode Three of ‘Tucker on Twitter,’ Carlson Pinpoints the Date the Deep State Began Targeting Trump

Former Fox News primetime host Tucker Carlson released on Tuesday the third episode of his newest production, “Tucker on Twitter.”

The episode, titled “America’s principles are at stake,” is a 13-minute video podcast where Carlson discusses the indictment of former President Donald Trump.

On Tuesday in a Miami courthouse, Trump was arraigned on 37 federal charges stemming from special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into the former president’s handling of sensitive U.S. government documents. Trump pleaded not guilty to all 37 charges.

During his monologue, Carlson said Tuesday’s arraignment of Trump was “inevitable.”

“The Biden administration arrested Donald Trump this afternoon,” Carlson began. “They had him arraigned and fingerprinted him in a Miami courthouse, like the accused felon he now is. These were the first steps in a process that is designed to put Donald Trump behind bars for the rest of his life. Cable news carried every moment of it live. ‘It’s unprecedented!’ they told us, with what looked like shock. But they weren’t shocked. They knew this was coming. Everyone who has paid attention knew it was. What just happened was always going to happen.”

Carlson then linked Trump’s opposition to wars in the Middle East during his 2016 campaign with Tuesday’s arraignment, saying that the former president’s prosecution is both “political” and “ideological.”

“It’s been inevitable since February 16th, 2016. That’s the day Donald Trump made a blood enemy of the largest and most powerful organization in human history, which would be the federal government,” Carlson said.

He explained, “Nobody with Trump’s views is allowed to have power in this country… Whatever else you say about him, Trump is the one guy with an actual shot of being president who dissents from Washington’s long standing pointless war agenda. And for that, that one fact, they are trying to take Trump out before you can vote for him. And that should upset you more than anything that’s happened in American politics in your lifetime.”

The former Fox News host concluded, “Yes, Donald Trump is a flawed man. But his sins are minor compared to those of his persecutors. In this life, we don’t get to choose our martyrs. We can only choose our principles, and America’s are at stake.”

As of press time, the latest installment of Tucker Carlson’s unique video podcast, posted at 7:30pm CT, had 4.9 million views. In all, the three episodes have been seen 177.1 million times on Twitter.
