President Trump dismissed concerns about Tucker Carlson's interview with far-right activist Nick Fuentes and declined to criticize Carlson or Fuentes. Trump highlighted Carlson's past favorable comments about him and said media figures cannot be told whom to interview, urging that people must decide for themselves. Fuentes publicly thanked Trump after Trump's remarks. The Carlson-Fuentes interview prompted controversy among conservatives, spurring internal backlash at the Heritage Foundation and later denunciation of Fuentes' views by the foundation's president. Trump previously hosted Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago, saying at the time he had "knew nothing about" him.
