Tucker Carlson is standing up for America once again. The popular conservative host recently challenged Senator Ted Cruz about his push for war with Iran. Cruz couldn’t even answer how many people live in the country he wants to attack.

This showdown comes at a critical time for our nation. Israel just hit Iran’s military leaders and nuclear sites. President Trump is now helping our great ally by controlling the skies over Iran.

Ted Cruz has been pushing for America to get more involved in yet another Middle East conflict. He talks tough about Iran but doesn’t know basic facts. This is exactly why regular Americans don’t trust politicians who send our brave troops into danger.

President Trump posted on Truth Social that we have “complete and total control of the skies over Iran.” Trump is showing real leadership by supporting Israel while keeping America’s interests first. He’s keeping his promise to avoid endless wars.

The GOP is now split between war hawks like Cruz and America First patriots like Carlson. Tucker is right to question these warmongers who know nothing about the countries they want to invade. We’ve seen this movie before in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Carlson was fired from Fox News last year but that hasn’t stopped him from speaking truth to power. He continues to be a voice for working-class Americans who are tired of our blood and treasure being wasted overseas.

Every conservative should applaud Tucker for holding Cruz accountable. If our leaders want to send American boys to die in foreign lands, they should at least know something about those places. Iran has a population of 86 million people and a military ready to fight.

This is why we need more journalists like Tucker Carlson and fewer politicians like Ted Cruz. Real conservatives care about protecting American lives and American interests. No more forever wars that only help the globalists and military contractors.
