Conservative journalist Tucker Carlson has issued a stark warning that the world is on the brink of a global conflict potentially ending in nuclear warfare, according to an interview with Afshin Rattansi.
Carlson asserted that the United States is already engaged in active war against Russia through Ukraine and cautioned that further escalation could trigger a nuclear exchange. “The CIA is running the war,” he stated. “The US intelligence services are running the war out of Ukraine against Russia. The United States is at war with Russia, and the only kind of conceivable end stage if this continues is a nuclear exchange in which everyone is killed.”
He further argued that the Ukraine conflict and the U.S.-Israel conflict over Iran have merged into a single global war, one that threatens the very existence of the United States. Carlson also criticized the Trump administration for abandoning its campaign promises, claiming President Donald Trump and his advisers have “almost systematically betrayed the people who voted for him in 2024.” He labeled this as “the greatest betrayal I’m aware of in the history of American politics.”
The interview additionally covered political censorship in the United States, the rise of BRICS nations, China’s expanding global influence, and shifting international power dynamics.
