Fox News host Mark Levin went scorched earth on Tucker Carlson in a text exchange where Carlson invited him to debate at an upcoming Turning Point USA event, with Levin ripping his former colleague as a “little bastard” and a “Nazi promoter.”
Levin read the back-and-forth between him and Carlson on his radio program, The Mark Levin Show, on Friday. He said Carlson reached out to him earlier in the day about debating at a TP USA event in December; Levin said he was not interested, that he would rather “debate a skunk,” and blasted Carlson for having guests like Nick Fuentes on his show — a move he said TP USA founder Charlie Kirk would be sickened by.
“What would Charlie say? What would Rush [Limbaugh] say?” Levin started off by saying.
He then read his “verbatim” response to Carlson.
“My family and I want nothing to do with you [and] what you’ve become — your vile libels against my faith, millions of Christians, and in my view, what you seek do to our country,” Levin said. “There’s nothing to debate. You’re a Nazi promoter. You’re the modern day David Duke.”
Levin then said he was “disappointed” that TP USA “continues to platform” Carlson.
“It’s not about free speech. You could be heard by millions,” Levin told Carlson. “Regardless, some unsolicited advice: stop long enough to remember who you used to be and what you used to stand for.”
Carlson immediately responded, according to Levin:
“For the record, I’m strongly anti-Nazi… but that’s hardly the point. This seems like the perfect opportunity to rebut what you consider evil ideas, and to do it to my face like a man. I think you’d jump at the chance, assuming you believe your positions are defensible. I’m offering the marketplace of ideas you often talk about, is it possible you can’t really defend, for example, what Israel has done to civilians in Gaza?”
Levin responded by telling Carlson he was “despised,” not “feared.”
“Well, you’re a coward. If you change your mind, I’m here. Thanks,” Carlson replied, according to Levin.
Levin then ripped Carlson as a “little bastard” who had “attacked” his stepson, David Milstein, who is serving as a senior advisor to Mike Huckabee, the American Ambassador to Israel.
The two conservative pundits have gone at each other plenty of times in the past, including when Carlson asked why Levin was “covering” for sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein last summer.
Later on his Friday show, Levin said Carlson had committed an “unspeakable betrayal” against Kirk by interviewing his enemy Fuentes so soon after Kirk was murdered.
Carlson, Levin added, has “figured out, the more disgusting, heinous, racist, bigoted, antisemitic, anti-American things he can say,” the better it is for his video podcast, The Tucker Carlson Show.
