Former conservative turned Democrat butt-kisser and Israel-hater Tucker Carlson is now going to bat for veritable left-wing Nazi Graham Platner.<\/p>\n

Appearing on the \u201cCan\u2019t Be Censored\u201d podcast on Thursday, Carlson defended Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner\u2019s infamous Nazi tattoo that Democrats have jumped through hoops to try to excuse.<\/p>\n

\u201cLook at Graham Platner, this guy who\u2019s running in the state of Maine where I live,\u201d he said. \u201cHe\u2019s a Democrat, he\u2019s liberal. I don\u2019t have strong feelings about it. But rather than respond to what the guy\u2019s positions are, they\u2019ve just called him a Nazi for the last month because he had a tattoo that was not a swastika, but apparently was connected to the German military at some point.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not even clear he knew that. But they\u2019ve attacked the guy in his personal life. It\u2019s like they don\u2019t like him because he\u2019s not sufficiently supportive of Israel<\/strong>,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

And there it was \u2026<\/p>\n

As expected, Tucker Carlson has rushed to Graham Platner\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n

He claims Platner didn\u2019t even know about his Nazi tattoo, and insists the real reason people are attacking him is because he\u2019s \u201cnot sufficiently supportive of Israel.\u201d pic.twitter.com\/R30ZKXdtSv<\/a><\/p>\n

FYI, CNN has already debunked the claim that Platner didn\u2019t realize his tattoo was a Nazi tattoo when he got it years ago.<\/p>\n

\u201c[A] woman who spoke to CNN anonymously last year is now going public to the New York Times and CNN, and directly challenging Graham Platner\u2019s explanation about the tattoo,\u201d CNN\u2019s Andrew Kaczynski reported earlier this month.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe says Platner referred to the image as \u2018My Totenkopf\u2019 \u2014 that\u2019s a reference to the skull and crossbones emblem used by Nazi SS units \u2014 years before the controversy became public,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Carlson\u2019s defense of Platner was no surprise, given his recent diatribes about Israel. Whereas he used to be a reliable voice for conservatism, many have noticed that he\u2019s become as obsessed with Israel as notorious antisemites like Nick Fuentes and rapper Kanye West.<\/p>\n

Indeed, earlier in Friday\u2019s \u201cCan\u2019t Be Censored\u201d episode, Carlson blamed Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk\u2019s death on his views on Israel. Never mind all the copious evidence that points to Kirk being killed by a gay furry who resented his views on homosexuals and transgender people.<\/p>\n

\u201cCharlie Kirk was murdered, and he was not murdered for his opinions on transgenderism, obviously,\u201d Carlson alleged. \u201cHe was, I believe \u2014 and most people who knew him well as I did and was friends with him as I was \u2014 believe he was most likely murdered for his evolving views on Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carlson then defended his perspective by lamenting how, at least, he was being sincere and honest with his diabolical views.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom my perspective, I have a duty to say what I think is true,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m often wrong. And I always say that because it\u2019s a fact. I have been wrong a lot and I may be wrong now, but I am sincere. I\u2019m saying what I believe is true, and I\u2019m going to continue doing that no matter what.\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlie Kirk was not murdered for his opinions on transgenderism. Obviously.<\/p>\n

Those of us who knew him best and called him a friend believe he was most likely murdered for his evolving views on Israel. \"\ud83d\udc40\"<\/p>\n

But critics say that while he might be an honest man, though many think he\u2019s a liar, he\u2019s also a borderline antisemite who appears to be losing his mind.<\/p>\n

\u201cHey Antisemite @TuckerCarlson, have some shame,\u201d one critic tweeted<\/a>. \u201cCharlie was murdered by a Transgender Furry loving crackpot Tyler Robinson, who hated Charlie for his View on Transgenderism. That furry moron doesn\u2019t give 2 cents about Charlie\u2019s view on Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat a POS,\u201d another critic wrote<\/a>. \u201cIt was the unit tattoo of the SS soldiers that ran and murdered Jews in concentration camps. It\u2019s the ultimate evil Nazi tattoo. Platner knew this \u2013 it\u2019s well documented \u2013 and Tucker does too.\u201d<\/p>\n
