Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) is in hot water after he blatantly threatened to “kill” Tucker Carlson on a hot mic during an interview with Great Britain News. Carlson has since responded with a surprisingly cordial offer.
The threat came as warmonger globalist congressman was asked by host Steven Edgington whether he had ever met Carlson, a former Fox News host and current independent podcaster.
Crenshaw was heard responding: “If I ever meet him I’d f—king kill him… I’m not joking.”
He could then be heard saying something along the lines of “he’s the worst person ever,” according to The Post Millennial.

The context of the exchange was later confirmed by Edgington in a separate post on X, writing: “After our interview I asked Dan Crenshaw if he had ever met @TuckerCarlson. He said: ‘I would kill him if I saw him’ I laughed it off. He said: ‘No seriously, I would kill him.’”

The shocking threat prompted outrage on social media and questions from X owner Elon Musk, who asked why Crenshaw was “homicidal regarding Tucker Carlson?”
Commentator Nick Sortor provided a succinct explanation, writing: “Tucker rightly called out Eyepatch McCain for being a neoliberal warmonger who prioritizes Ukraine over America. He’s one of the most vocal proponents of continuing to spend in Ukraine on EITHER side.”
Sortor then quoted Carlson as saying: “Crenshaw is hawkish on Ukraine’s border but indifferent to ours.”

Meanwhile, Carlson actually responded to the news, replying to Musk’s question, but addressing Crenshaw.
“Why don’t you come sit for an interview and we’ll see how you do? I’ll send you my address,” Carlson wrote, tagging Crenshaw’s official X account.
Why don’t you come sit for an interview and we’ll see how you do? I’ll send you my address, @DanCrenshawTX.

Crenshaw has since attempted to deny that he ever made those comments after his colleague, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) called him out, asking Crenshaw: “did you threaten to kill my friend @TuckerCarlson?”
Instead of admitting the truth, Crenshaw simply replied: “lol, no.”

Of course, Crenshaw’s lie only served to increase the calls for him to step down from Congress, as people were especially outraged that not only did he threaten to murder an American citizen, but he tried to lie to the American people’s faces about doing so despite there being video evidence and witness corroboration.
