Tucker Carlson has claimed the CIA read his text messages leading up to the war with Iran in an effort to frame him as a foreign agent.
The conservative pundit, 56, said the Department of Justice is preparing to charge him with being an unregistered foreign agent for the Iranian regime on the CIA's recommendation, during a video posted on X Saturday night.
"The CIA is preparing some kind of criminal referral against me, a crime report to the Department of Justice, on the basis of a supposed crime I committed," the former Fox News host said in the video released Saturday.
