Tucker Carlson has claimed he is facing potential criminal charges stemming from his conversations with people in Iran after U.S. government agencies "read my texts."
Posting on X, the former Fox News host said the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was preparing "a crime report" to the Department of Justice (DOJ) on the basis that he was "acting as an agent of a foreign power" by conversing with individuals from Iran. Carlson denied these alleged claims.
