Tucker Carlson said the US government may bring criminal charges against him under a foreign agent law, claiming intelligence officials read his text messages before the war with Iran. In recent weeks, he has criticised the United States and Israel over strikes on Iran, including the military operation that killed Iran’s former supreme leader Ali Khamenei. “I’m not an agent of a foreign power,” Carlson said. “I have only one loyalty and that’s the United States and have never acted against it.”Carlson also said he had never accepted money from a foreign government. Carlson also suggested some intelligence officials may be targeting him because of his views on Israel and the war with Iran.
