Marjorie Taylor Greene took a moment on Monday night to defend Tucker Carlson after Donald Trump called the former Fox News host “kooky” for criticizing the president’s support of Israel’s attacks on Iran. Greene’s defense of Carlson came one day after she declared that “everyone is finding out who are real America First/MAGA and who were fake,” and that “anyone slobbering for the U.S. to become fully involved in the Israel/Iran war is not America First/MAGA,” a claim appearing to suggest that Donald Trump is not a real MAGA guy given his current take on the situation. We have propaganda news on our side just like the left does, and the American people have been brainwashed into believing that America has to engage in these foreign wars in order for us to survive, and it’s absolutely not true.” Carlson had similarly harsh words for his former longtime employer, telling Steve Bannon: “What they’re doing is what they always do, which is just turning up the propaganda hose to full blast and just trying to, you know, knock elderly Fox viewers off their feet and make them submit.” (He did not say if he engaged in spreading propaganda during his 14 years at the network, but it seems he might have!)
