Hours after Donald Trump was arrested and arraigned in a Miami courthouse Tuesday on charges relating to his alleged mishandling of classified documents, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson came to his defense in his latest Tucker on Twitter video series.
Despite an escalating dispute with Fox News over the Twitter videos, Carlson returned to the social media platform, expressing support for the former president and criticizing the very concept of classified documents, asserting casually that in Washington, D.C. “everything is classified.”
Trump’s indictment on 37 counts—31 of which relate to his alleged willful and unauthorized retention of national defense information in violation of the Espionage Act—is “transparently political,” whined Carlson, who spent one of his final days at Fox sitting dutifully in front of Trump during an interview a week after the former president was arrested and arraigned in New York on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
