Carlson is a supporter of Trump's agenda to fix America's problems and disengage the country from foreign conflicts, which helped him secure a second presidential term earlier this month.
"Permanent Washington doesn't care about domestic policy," the former Fox News host told the Redacted political talk show on Monday. "What they care about is exercising power abroad: killing people, because it makes them feel like God, and making money. And that's where the money is, trillions of dollars."
The group "is basically everyone in DC in both parties," he added. Carlson claimed they want Trump "to take the country to war either against Russia, or, far more likely, Iran." The pro-war clique in the US capital perceives this scenario as "the only way to stop Trump and the disclosure that a Trump administration will bring," he said.
An attack on Iran would result in a world war just as certainly as an escalation of tensions with Russia, Carlson added.
"This is not 2002. Iran is now part of a coalition that includes the biggest economies in the world and the largest militaries in the world," he pointed out, naming Russia, China and Türkiye as likely backers of Tehran.
Anyone supporting the continuation of the Ukraine conflict lacks "the requisite wisdom to lead my country," Carlson said.
"Anybody who would even consider having a war with Russia or Iran should not be in any position of power at all, in this administration or any other administration," he added, describing the test as "super simple."
Trump claimed during his campaign that he could end the Ukraine conflict in 24 hours. After his electoral victory, outgoing President Joe Biden authorized strikes with long-range Western missiles deep inside Russia, which Moscow warned in advance would cross a red line.
Moscow reacted by firing a new hypersonic missile at a military plant in Ukraine. The Oreshnik is understood to be nuclear-capable and have sufficient range to strike any target in Europe. President Vladimir Putin has claimed that Western anti-ballistic missile systems cannot intercept it.

I still expect a false flag involving some kind of dirty nuclear explosion, probably on USA territory for the "optics". This will be blamed on Russia or Iran. This would give the pretext to establish martial law in the USA and prevent Trump from coming to power. I expect the FEMA camps to be used to imprison someone. Only 2 months left.
He is of the same kind of ignorant American supremacists who still believe the US is strong and can call the shots. Just hours ago, Trump's picks for foreign policy matters declared their agreement with the recent Biden/Blinken/Sullivan actions, and tried to insult Putin personally.
Nothing is going to change from the US side, Trump or not.
Until the Russians publicly demonstrate their impotence.
Until recently I saw a chance, although it was clear to me from the beginning that Trump has no knowledge of strategic military matters, nor real diplomatic skills. On the bright side, he was usually ready to talk, and understood the idea of a compromise.
He himself, his nominees and his elitist backers need to realize their weak position in military, economic and financial matters. The times of bullying others into complience is over.
And they don't need to, they can achieve the same devastation with conventional means.
The other problem is the ignorance of Western leaders. They understand nothing, not even the danger involved, and the consequences of a nuclear exchange.
Instead of playing the ankle chomper on SOTT ?
Nothing else I can do, everyone must come to grips with himself.

Tramp is riding pillion and steered by greater forces, Calslug will know this, therefore, he's either dumb or a dupe - am sure his Banker and CIA propagandist father knows which it is, as it he who fostered his rise.

When one knows better one does better, and we all are gifted in one way or another intended for order and/or contribution, POSITIVELY. I celebrate intelligence, and have respect for it here, in you, and everywhere, believe it or not. SOTT ROCKS but not toxicity. Your lies suppositions opinions are selfish trashy, validation seeking & boredom-busters; self-agrandizement & grandstanding obvious to the emotionally intelligent. Like I said, we all have our gifts to use, and shit to work on, FOR HUMANITY'S SAKE aka our responsibility and our ENVIRONMENTTTT.
Only unresolved overdue issues make us resist to betterment which is blatantly obvious in the clique here in the last couple of years. Be dense, it's your freewill, as is your karma.
Some people point it out regularly, and I am not alone. Stick together and sink, not my problem... I dont live on the side-lines nor with my head stuck up my arse.
