Ben Shapiro Shreds Tucker Carlson's Extremely Dubious' CIA Spying Claim: He Enjoys Playing the Victim'
"Maybe this is yet another stupid cycle of Jussie Smollett victimhood from the same grievance party that always traffics in such faux-victimhood. The same grievance party that plays host to Candace Owens, who claims the French were trying to kill her."
"He said there's a decent chance Carlson was incidentally caught up in a sweep, where the CIA is monitoring the communications of foreign adversaries like Iran. But Shapiro said it was unlikely President Donald Trump who Carlson routinely meets with at the White House is leading a Nixonian conspiracy to silence the pundit."
"So why would Carlson lie about being spied on? Shapiro said it is because Carlson loves playing the victim and has a history of lying. He pointed to Carlson's 2021 claim that the NSA was spying on him and aiming to take his show off the air."
Ben Shapiro criticized Tucker Carlson's assertion that the CIA spied on his text messages regarding Iran, calling the claim dubious and typical of Carlson's pattern of playing the victim. Shapiro suggested Carlson may have been incidentally caught in surveillance sweeps targeting foreign adversaries, but dismissed the notion that the Trump administration deliberately targeted him, noting Carlson's son works in the administration. Shapiro pointed to Carlson's 2021 NSA spying claim that proved unfounded as evidence of a pattern. He cited administration officials and reporter Marc Caputo's reporting that contradicted Carlson's narrative. Shapiro argued Carlson fabricated the story to control the narrative and gain support from allies like Candace Owens and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
