In the interview this week, Carlson was critical of Fuentes’s anti-Semitism. “It’s against my Christian faith,” he said, referring to Fuentes’s history of blaming Jewish people for political problems. “I just don’t believe that, and I never will, period.” Otherwise, the episode was notably friendly. Carlson largely focused on their shared beliefs—among them, opposing foreign intervention and racial diversity—and only lightly probed Fuentes at other points in their discussion. (Fuentes and Carlson did not respond to my requests for comment.)
