Tucker Carlson regularly has on Jeffrey Sachs, a UN official funded by George Soros, and he recently made headlines by inviting on Nick Fuentes, a Nazi wannabe troll who had called for training all his “firepower” on Charlie Kirk, but this story is actually worse.
When President Trump warned Nigeria’s regime that the genocide of Christians by Muslims would no longer be tolerated, Tucker scrambled to bring on a guest to deny that any such thing was happening.
Joel Mowbray, who became famous when he exposed how the 9/11 hijackers got their visas, had a flash scoop on who Tucker’s guest is.
And it’s really unbelievable. I was disgusted when Tucker dismissed Christian genocide in Nigeria and claimed it was really “weird” that Sen. Ted Cruz was talking about it. But this is a whole other level of corruption and just plain evil.
The Tucker Carlson guest on Friday who declared that there is no campaign of targeted killings of Christians in Nigeria, lobbyist and PR flack Robert Amsterdam, had for years represented a leading Nigerian official closely associated with Fulani Islamists — including the very militias that have been slaughtering Christians in Nigeria.
Robert Amsterdam, feted by Carlson as “defending Christians around the world,” represented Nasir El-Rufai, who from 2015 to 2023 was the governor of the northern Nigerian state of Kaduna, home to the bulk of Fulani Islamist militias that have slaughtered thousands of Christians. While serving as Kaduna’s governor, El-Rufai directed substantial payments to those very same Fulani Islamists (by his own admission), and he ordered numerous crackdowns that reportedly resulted in the murders of more than 100 Christians. El-Rufai has also contributed to the ongoing vilification and demonization of Nigeria’s Christians, such as claiming in 2014 that Christians “sponsor[ed]” Boko Haram with the “motive of… tarnish[ing] the name of Islam.”
In 2012, three years before becoming governor of Kaduna, El-Rufai tweeted a veiled threat to Nigerian soldiers attempting to thwart the murderous campaigns carried out by Fulani Islamists, “Anyone, soldier or not that kills the Fulani takes a loan repayable one day no matter how long it takes.”
Three years later, El-Rufai touted his endorsement from Fulani Islamists (a broader Muslim ethnic group in Nigeria whose leaders have supported implementation of Sharia law) when he successfully ran for governor. El-Rufai also reinstated the Religious Preaching Edict, which meant that all Christian pastors required prior approval from the Kaduna government before each sermon, otherwise they “will be liable to pay a fine, and may even be imprisoned,” in El-Rufai’s own words.
To make this whole thing even more corrupt, Tucker Carlson (who regularly has on Glenn Greenwald, a very gay socialist) claimed that the only reason that Trump wanted to stop the cartels smuggling drugs through the Venezuelan government was for “globohomo”.
It turns out Robert Amsterdam is apparently representing Venezuela’s government.
Amsterdam earned $4M+ in just the first four months of the engagement from the Maduro regime, starting in January 2020.
According to the relevant FARA filing, Amsterdam was engaged to persuade the U.S. to “mitigate or remove sanctions” on Maduro’s Venezuela. (His contract was officially signed by the Attorney General of Venezuela since the U.S. at that time did not recognize Maduro as legitimate.)
Tucker did not discuss Venezuela with Amsterdam, but during that Friday show, Tucker said that his guest was “one of the people that I talk to most off camera about what is happening to the Christian population of the world.”
Nothing says advocating for Christians like… working for an Islamist who killed Christians and for a Marxist drug smuggling regime. Amsterdam is a Jewish Marxist, his ‘advocacy for Christians’ mostly consists of attacks on Ukraine’s government.
Here’s some background on Amsterdam.
In his Toronto high school (Amsterdam moved from New York to Canada at 12 with his mother and stepfather), he landed in trouble for writing an admiring article about the radical Jewish 1960s youth leader Howard “Abbie” Hoffman for the student newspaper under the title “Seven Ways to [expletive] the Principal.” Suspended from school, he began traveling around Sub- Saharan Africa, the Soviet Union, and countries behind the Iron Curtain while accompanying his asthmatic mother seeking treatment at Eastern European spas.
Back then he was a committed Marxist, devouring books on dialectical materialism. At college in Ottawa, he chose Marxist studies as a major before opting to study law at Queen’s University in Kingston.
Can’t think of a better advocate for Christians.
Washington D.C. is a swamp and there are no shortage of lobbyists who will take cash to represent anyone. What’s really slimy here is that Tucker Carlson repeatedly invites on people like Sachs or Amsterdam, who represent foreign and enemy interests, without disclosing who they are, while assuring his audience that they’re just “decent folks” and experts on whatever agenda he wants to promote. This behavior is as bad or worse as anything the mainstream media does.
It goes without saying that Tucker Carlson, who now praises Islam, Sharia law and Muslim leaders, no longer cares about Christians unless he can use them to attack one of his favorite non-Muslim targets. He also has no regard for honesty or integrity. This is the behavior of a man who has contempt for his audience and for America.
