“Tucker doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He likes to visit Moscow and talk about how great the grocery stores are—I don’t take his advice seriously,” Crenshaw said.
Crenshaw, once seen as a rising conservative star, has fallen out of favor with many on the right due to his support for red flag laws, surveillance measures, and his unwavering commitment to funding Ukraine’s war effort. His critics have nicknamed him “Eyepatch McCain” for his hawkish foreign policy, a label popularized by Carlson.
After news of his violent comments spread, Crenshaw attempted to downplay the situation. When Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene asked if he had really threatened her friend, Crenshaw simply responded, “lol. No.”
However, X’s community notes fact-checked him, revealing that his words were indeed caught on a hot mic. “Dan Crenshaw did threaten Tucker Carlson’s life. His comment was caught on ‘hot mic’ A/V recording,” the note read.
Elon Musk also chimed in, questioning Crenshaw’s state of mind. “Why is Crenshaw homicidal regarding Tucker?” Musk asked.
Carlson himself addressed the controversy by extending an invitation to Crenshaw for a sit-down interview. “Why don’t you come sit for an interview and we’ll see how you do? I’ll send you my address, @DanCrenshawTX,” Carlson posted.

The incident has further damaged Crenshaw’s standing with conservatives, many of whom already viewed him as a warmonger out of touch with the America First movement. His refusal to support Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign, his attacks on grassroots Republicans, and his obsession with funding foreign wars have only fueled the backlash.
While Crenshaw may try to spin this as a joke gone wrong, the footage tells a different story. With the comment caught on camera and now going viral, questions are swirling about his judgment—and whether there will be any consequences for his threat.
For now, Carlson remains unfazed, daring Crenshaw to back up his words in an open discussion. Whether the Congressman accepts remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: this scandal isn’t going away anytime soon.
