Tucker Carlson recently spoke at the Saudi Real Estate Future Forum in Riyadh, where he shared the stage with Hillary Clinton and John Kerry, finding common ground on at least one topic amid discussions on regional development, as reported by The New York Times. This appearance highlights his ongoing international platform despite domestic controversies.

Mike Huckabee, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, sharply criticized Carlson this week, accusing him of a political shift driven by profit motives, particularly over Carlson's claims linking Epstein to Mossad. The Economic Times quoted Huckabee saying Carlson's current approach is more lucrative than his Fox News days, tying it to rising antisemitism concerns on the political right.

The New Yorker magazine's latest February 2, 2026, issue features a major profile by Jason Zengerle on Carlson's political evolution, exploring his post-Fox trajectory and rightward move, with Jewish Insider also spotlighting the piece alongside surging Saudi antisemitism trends. Meanwhile, Fox Corp. acquired Red Seat Ventures to expand into podcasts, potentially reuniting the network with Carlson and Megyn Kelly, according to AOL reports.

In a recent interview covered by MEXC, Carlson debated economist Peter Schiff on cryptocurrency, suggesting Bitcoin or Tether could replace the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency amid its weakening, though Schiff dismissed it as speculative waste without real utility.

These developments underscore debates about Carlson's influence, with critics like Huckabee questioning his motives and media watchers analyzing his role in conservative media shifts and global discourse.
