When a commentator with millions of listeners claims that a global Jewish religious movement is quietly pushing the world toward war in order to rebuild a temple in Jerusalem, that claim deserves scrutiny. Unfortunately for Tucker Carlson, the facts collapse his narrative almost immediately.
Tucker Carlson’s latest commentary about Chabad should not be dismissed as a minor theological misunderstanding.
