Tucker Carlson in Fort Worth to troll establishment, who will be ‘losing their minds’
Conservative firebrand Tucker Carlson will be in Fort Worth as one of the stops in a 15-city arena tour this fall where he will interview a guest at each town.
Each stop on his tour is sure to troll those with opposing viewpoints, but he will be praised by the political warriors that have hung on his every word while a commentator on Fox News and after his ignominious exit from the conservative network.
“I can’t wait to take our show on the road in cities across America,” Carslon said in a press release. “We’re going to be talking about real issues with real people. You’d better believe the establishment will be losing their minds.”
Carlson’s Fort Worth interview subject is comedian, actor and political provocateur Roseanne Barr. The former Fox News host is embarking on a national tour this fall and is appearing at Dickies Arena on Sept. 24.
Tickets go on sale via Ticketmaster at 10 a.m. Friday. Tickets can also be purchased early from 10 a.m. Wednesday to 10 p.m. Thursday by using the unlock code, DICKIES.
Carlson is going on tour this fall to react and discuss the latest news from the upcoming presidential election. He will be joined by a special guest at each of the scheduled 15 shows.
Carlson’s guests in other cities include Russell Brand (Phoenix, Sept. 4), Megyn Kelly (Sept. 12, Kansas City), Alex Jones (Sept. 16, Milwaukee), Roseanne Barr (Sept. 24, Fort Worth) and Donald Trump Jr. (Sept. 28, Jacksonville).
Carlson began his cable news career at CNN in 2000 and later joined Fox News in 2009.
His show “Tucker Carlson Tonight” was among the most popular for the network during its run from 2016 to 2023. Last year, Carlson and Fox News parted ways less than a week after settling a lawsuit over the network’s 2020 election reporting.
Just a few months ago in March, Carlson spoke at a Tarrant County Republican Party event with sheriff Bill Waybourn, Rep. Tony Tinderholt, Rep. Nate Schatzline and county judge Tim O’Hare.
Roeanne Barr is no stranger to controversy
Barr, who is joining Carlson in Fort Worth, is no stranger to controversy — the BBC even compiled the comedian’s top five most deplorable moments. It includes the incident over three decades ago at a professional baseball game in San Diego where she butchered The Star-Spangled Banner to vociferous boos. Barr then responded by grabbing her groin then spat.
“Disgraceful,” then-President George H.W. Bush said.
In 2018, ABC abruptly pulled the plug on the actor and comedian’s show, “Roseanne,” after she posted a racist message on Twitter, now called X, about one of President Barack Obama’s most influential aids, Valerie Jarrett. Barr wrote if the “muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj.”
She later apologized, but it was too late.
