Conservative commentator and journalist Tucker Carlson took a break from interviewing world leaders and newsmakers to speak at a fundraiser for the Tarrant County Republican Party last week, focusing on the invasion at the southern border and firing shots at Gov. Greg Abbott in the process.
The former Fox News host's remarks also centered on a recent theme in his own reporting: the spiritual battle taking place in America.
