Commentary: 1,500 Rabbis Come To Tucker Carlson’s Defense as ADL Calls for His Firing

Last week, the Anti-Defamation League suggested that Fox News host Tucker Carlson should be yanked from the air for supporting what it called a “white supremacist tenet.”

Now, 1,500 rabbis have defended Carlson and criticized the ADL.

On the April 8 episode of “Fox News Primetime,” Carlson raised the possibility that Democrats are allowing mass immigration in order to win more votes. He made clear that he was not suggesting there was a race problem, saying instead it was a voting rights problem.

“I know that the left and all the little gatekeepers on Twitter become literally hysterical if you use the term ‘replacement,’ if you suggest that the Democratic Party is trying to replace the current electorate, the voters now casting ballots, with new people, more obedient voters from the Third World,” Carlson said.

“But they become hysterical because that’s what’s happening, actually. Let’s just say it: That’s true.”

He concluded that while critics want to make it a racial issue, the fact that people who refuse to follow our laws are being let into the country and given special privileges is “a voting rights question.”

Carlson happens to be correct that importing noncitizens and allowing them to vote dilutes the voting power of American citizens. He never mentioned anything about the race of the voters in America, and he never implied that only white people should have power.

Instead, Carlson suggested that American citizens of all races should have voting power in the United States, and noncitizens of all races should not. That seems like a pretty fair conclusion.
