For ex-Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who once used his nightly show to broadcast white nationalist talking points to millions of viewers, his latest episode of Tucker on X marked a return to form. Carlson used his show to fearmonger about an immigrant “invasion” and suggest that a violent response may be necessary to repel it.

Carlson started the show with a white supremacist monologue about the differences between other countries and their populations:

Nations are defined by the people who live in them. That is the most basic of observations about the world. China is different from Barbados, and not just because of geography. Austria and Zimbabwe are both land-locked countries in the middle of large continents. But they are not the same. That’s because their populations are different.

If you have a country brimming with people who work hard, believe in Christianity, and Western standards of fairness, and are willing, therefore, to settle their differences without violence, you will likely have a peaceful, prosperous nation. You’ll have Sweden 50 years ago before millions of non-Swedes arrived.

If, by contrast, you have a nation full of people, however friendly and cheerful they may be, who don’t believe in any of that, who embrace tribalism rather than universal principles of justice, who think 40 hours a week is too much for a man to work, and who for whatever reason have low impulse control, then you will get a place like Congo — a country that has remained in a state of perpetual civil war since before most Americans were born.

It’s that simple. There’s a reason the German sections of southern Brazil are affluent and orderly, while Amazonia is not. It’s because of the people. This is obvious. No honest person denies it or has ever denied it. But in this moment of national madness that has gripped the United States, our leaders are pretending that none of it is true. Although, of course, they know perfectly well that it is true.

Carlson went on to lament that the U.S. is “changing faster than it ever has” due to “waves of mass immigration that not a single American voted for.” He called this a “crime” and “election rigging on a mass scale” that is “fueled by anti-white racial hostility.”

“That is not a guess,” he continued. “The people doing it say so out loud. They brag about it. They are criminals. They must be punished for what they have done.” After playing footage, purportedly of migrants at the border in El Paso, TX, Carlson said, “That’s your country being invaded. It will never be the same.”

He then cut to an interview with Todd Bensman, whom he neglected to mention is a Senior National Security Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies. CIS was founded by John Tanton, a white nationalist and eugenicist who once said that “for European-American society and culture to persist requires a European-American majority, and a clear one at that.”

CIS is listed as an anti-immigrant hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center which, it states, “has a decades-long history of circulating racist writers, while also associating with white nationalists.”

Bensman told Carlson that “Honduran villages are emptying out, population transfers are happening right now from places like Cuba, Guatemala, African countries.” He said that they’re “emptying out of their countries and coming through” to the U.S. “because there’s a return on that smuggling investment to get here because we are letting them in.”

Carlson wondered aloud why U.S. citizens haven’t resorted to violence to stop what he characterized as an “invasion.”

“But most people are totally opposed to this. It’s supposed to be our country, we’re supposed to be it’s owners, we’re paying for this,” he groused. “And I wonder, in an earlier age you’d of course see American men with their own rifles standing on the border, stopping it. Does there come a point where people just say this is a criminal government, and we’re going to stop the invasion of our country?”

Later in the interview Carlson asked Bensman about the “tragedy in Israel” when Hamas militants attacked, killing 1,300 people. Carlson said that the attack was “tied to borders, immigration, the nature of the population, etc. etc.” and asked if anyone in the Biden administration was “concerned about combatants” entering the country.

However he left out that while the Israelis built a heavily fortified, high-tech barrier to separate itself from the Gaza Strip, Hamas still overcame their defenses.

Bensman recounted testimony he gave about terrorists crossing the southern border, telling Carlson that “we’ve had a record-breaking number of immigrants apprehended who are on the FBI’s terrorism watch list already.” He claimed that Democrats, during his testimony, would instead look at their phones, and behaved “like the Israelis before this incredible, devastating attack by Hamas.”

At the end of the interview Carlson endorsed extrajudicial violence a second time, remarking that, “Well if there was ever a reason to have a citizens’ militia, this is it I would say.”
