- ‘That Laugh is Just Awful!’ SNL Cast Member Wrecks Tucker Carlson With Spot-...
Saturday Night Live pilloried Tucker Carlson — with cast member Jeremy Culhane delivering an uncanny sendup of the commentator’s frequent pitch changes and trademark cackle. The premise of Carlson’s three-minute commentary — which came during Weekend Update — was a political rant roasting the 2026 OSCAR nominees. “Let’s all go to the movies!” Culhane’s Carlson said. “Huh? Really? Yes, why don’t we grab some popcorn and watch American culture collapse? What are we doing? What’s going on?” One by one, Carlson took on the Best Picture nominees — trashing them as “leftist woke America’s” favorite fare. “Why don’t we talk about Sinners?” Carlson said. “That’s right, Sinners. Because of course, leftist woke America’s favorite movie this year is about sinning. Ha! Why does that not surprise me?! No, sorry kids, we don’t go to church anymore. We go to Sinners. That’s the rule, that’s the goal now.” Next up was Hamnet. “Because we’re not allowed to say Hamlet anymore,” Carlson said. “They took the L and gave it to the GBTQ. What are we doing?!” At one point, Weekend Update’s Colin Jost called attention to the high-pitched squeals from Culhane’s version of Carlson. “Dude, I gotta tell you, that laugh is just awful,” Jost said. “That’s not my laugh, that’s the soul of an 18th century mental patient trying to escape from this locket,” Carlson said — holding up a locket for the camera. The sketch did not incorporate the news that broke just hour before showtime on Saturday — that Carlson said he believes the Justice Department could be preparing to charge him for being an unregistered foreign agent.

(Tucker Carlson on X) Tucker Carlson on Saturday night said the Justice Department is preparing to charge him for being an unregistered foreign agent, which Carlson said the CIA recommended after reading his text messages leading up to the war on Iran. He suggested “some” CIA workers could be targeting him because of his “views about Israel.” Carlson explained the situation from his view in a 5 minute video posted to X. “The CIA is preparing some kind of criminal referral against me, a crime report to the Department of Justice, on the basis of a supposed crime I committed,” Carlson said. “What’s that crime? Well, talking to people in Iran before the war. They read my texts.” Carlson said he is “apparently” being charged under the “Foreign Agent Act” – likely referring to the Foreign Agents Registration Act; the 1938 legislation requires people who are paid by foreign governments for lobbying or political advocacy to register with the Justice Department. The ex-Fox News star said he does not “expect this to go anywhere” for several reasons. “I’m not an agent of a foreign power,” Carlson said was the first reason. “Unlike a lot of people commenting on U.S. politics and global affairs, I have only one loyalty and that’s the United States and have never acted against it.” He said another reason he is not worried is because he has “never taken money” from a foreign power. “Don’t need it, don’t want it,” he said. Carlson also said he is an American and can speak to anyone he wants — which is yet another reason he believes the potential charges are bogus. “Legally, I think, the case is ludicrous, and I doubt it’ll even become a case,” Carlson said.

The first is because he argued all countries become “more authoritarian” during war time. Countries show “much less tolerance for any kind of dissent” when there is a war — even the USA — he argued. He then said his criticism of Israel in recent years could have put a target on his back inside the CIA. “[There are] some people who are mad at me for… [TheTopNews] Read More.13 hours ago - Trump Withholds Endorsement in Tight Texas Senate Race — Says the SAVE Act Is ...
(AP Photo/Luis M. Alvarez) President Donald Trump told NBC News on Saturday he is holding off on endorsing a Republican candidate for Senate in Texas for the time being. One big reason? He wants to see if Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) and other Republicans can get the SAVE America Act passed. “A lot has to do with the SAVE America Act. A lot is going to determine — Republicans have to get that passed, because that will secure voting in this country,” Trump said. The president has been pushing hard for the legislation — which would require identification to vote in federal elections — in recent weeks. If Cornyn can help get it through the Senate, that could be enough to win Trump’s backing against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who will be facing the incumbent in a May 26 runoff. “I’ll let you know that over the next week or so,” Trump said when asked if he would endorse Cornyn. “I like him. I always liked him.” The senator appears to be working hard to get Trump’s support, with Cornyn last week announcing he had changed his mind on the Senate filibuster rule. He said he has felt for years the rule, which requires 60 votes to end debates on legislation, was important — but not as important as the SAVE Act, which he cosponsored. Cornyn said Democrats are now “weaponizing” the filibuster to block legislation most Americans want. “When the reality on the ground changes, leaders must take stock and adapt,” Cornyn wrote in a New York Post op-ed. His op-ed was published on the Wednesday — the same morning Trump prodded Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) to get the SAVE Act passed, after Thune has complained he does not have enough votes to make it happen. CNN data guru Harry Enten recently reported most Americans support voter ID laws. Enten highlighted a Pew poll that found 71% of Dems and 95% of Republicans support the legislation. “Normally, you might expect hey, there’d be a big divide by party, with Republicans really for it and Democrats really against it,” Enten said. “But not really here.” Paxton is vying for Cornyn’s Senate seat, while Sen. Ted Cruz is not up for reelection until 2030. Trump told NBC News that Cornyn being in favor of nixing the filibuster was something he appreciated “very much.” But it was not enough to get his endorsement, for now at least.The… [TheTopNews] Read More.14 hours ago - ‘He Doesn’t Really Care What Happens Next’: Tim Dillon Argues Trump Will T...Tim Dillon suggested on his latest podcast that President Donald Trump really doesn’t care what happens next in Iran and that average Americans should tell the highly-suggestible president exactly what he wants to hear so we can get out of that country and move on. “I think we’ve won and we’re done,” Dillon said. “And I think people should communicate to Donald Trump how much we’ve won. How glorious this victory has been for all of us. How exciting it’s been to see this. How grateful we are for this. And that we should all just go home and think about it as a great glorious memory of the past.” Dillon said his plan will be all messed up by the liberals if Trump claims, “I’ve won, we’re done!” but they answer, “You didn’t win anything! You actually lost.” “And [Trump] will go, ‘You’re right’ — and then nuke everyone.” “So, whatever this man needs to hear,” Dillon emphasized. “Really — Whatever this guy needs to hear. He’s at the end of his life. He’s endorsing Jake Paul for president. He doesn’t care what happens next. That’s the thing with Donald Trump. He doesn’t really care what happens next.” Dillon continued: So, whatever this guy needs to hear to get him out of this war, tell him. Tell him that. Whatever this dude needs to hear, so that he can get us the f*ck out of there, Because this is — and obviously we all support the U.S. Military, that’s why we don’t want them dying for literally no reason in Iran, unfortunately. Now, I know people will attack me for saying that. They will say, “Well you’re dishonoring their sacrifice.” “What I’m saying is, if we get an even crazier leader than the one we had before — I don’t get it,” Dillon said of Iran’s new supreme leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei. Earlier in the show, Dillon explained that Mojtaba Khamenei is going to be even more dedicated to getting a nuke than his father was because the U.S. killed his whole family. “But Trump is just kind of on a farewell tour,” Dillon continued. Dillon’s sentiment echoed that of fellow podcaster Joe Rogan who said he was “spooked” by Trump getting ready to become an octogenarian. “Right, he’s 80, he doesn’t have much to lose,” Rogan said this week. “That’s the scary thing about old leaders —… [TheTopNews] Read More.15 hours ago
- MS NOW Host Rips Trump and Hegseth for Unleashing a ‘Bit of Racism’ on Iran ...MS NOW star Antonia Hylton said it is “disturbing” how the Trump Administration talks about Iran’s theocratic regime, with Hylton saying there is a “bit of racism” in how President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth discuss the country. Hylton went off on the Trump administration’s “messaging” around Operation Epic Fury on the Saturday episode of The Weekend: Primetime. She said the way Trump and other officials talk about Iran — which has killed more than 1,000 Americans since 1979 via its terrorist proxies — is unsettling, considering the country is simply an “opponent.” And in particular, Hylton was upset with Hegseth saying Iran is run by “savages” earlier this week. Here is what she told Ayman Mohyeldin and her other co-hosts: The other piece of this that I found really disturbing in the messaging around the war recently — and Ayman, I really want your thoughts on this in particular — is some of the language in the description of their opponent. Sort of the way they seem to create this image of the Iranians and all of their sort of proxies or allies, the sort of imagery that they conjure up. And I think that it takes a certain amount of arrogance and I’m also going to say it, a bit of racism, to constantly talk about people like they are savages. That is a word that we have heard Hegseth use. [They] talk about people as though the are subhuman, too stupid to engage in a war with the United States, incapable of possibly out-maneuvering us, and then find ourselves in the exact position in which it appears they are consistently out-maneuvering us. The MS NOW crew then rolled a clip of Hegseth on Tuesday saying “For 47 years, these barbaric savages in the Iranian regime have murdered our brothers in arms. My guys, your guys, our guys.” Primetime:Weekend then played a clip of Trump telling Fox News host Brian Kilmeade that the alleged culprits in multiple attacks this week do not have “exactly your genetics. It’s one of those problems.” Those comments were made on Thursday, days after a man shouted “Allahu Akbar!” and hurled an explosive device at a protest in New York City; that man and another suspect both told investigators they were inspired by ISIS, according to the criminal complaint. Trump’s comments were also made the same day a Lebanese-born U.S. citizen… [TheTopNews] Read More.15 hours ago
- Fox Business Host Urges Trump to Give State of the Union-Style Speech to America...Business mogul and Fox Business host Marcus Lemonis told The Big Weekend Show on Saturday that President Donald Trump needs to deliver a “clear message” to the American people about the state of the economy. “What I want President Trump to do, and if I was advising him — to acknowledge the fact that the economy is not in as great shape as we want it to be, and it’s a lot of hangover from the Biden administration. And rather than pointing fingers, I think people want solutions,” Lemonis said. Lemonis noted mortgage rates now around 6.3%, saying, “You will see housing gridlock, people looking for liquidity and they will not find it. So, when you put these things together between job losses happening from A.I. and rising prices on fuel that trickle all the way through, I think that the Republican party — our party — needs to get very serious about delivering a clear message — not pointing fingers — but a solution-oriented message and not exaggerate — not exaggerate — that things are wonderful. Things are not wonderful.” Lemonis continued: If I was advising Trump, I would say, I feel like another State of the Union or State of the Nation or some sort of address that said to folks, “Listen, this increase in costs that is what I would call temporary, it’s painful. But there are decisions that have to be made, and there are short-term consequences to that. And I need you to trust me. I need you to know that I acknowledge that these things are happening.” I don’t think that going after [Jerome] Powell right is the answer, because even if they set an emergency discount on the rates, that trickle down does not happen nearly as the increase on oil. He added, “I think what the American population wants right now is, ‘How long is this going to last, and are we gonna put boots on the ground, and if that happens, is this another Iraq?'” Lemonis is the CEO of Bed Bath & Beyond and the host of The Fixer on Fox Business.
