"Carlson referenced accusations he and his media company, the Tucker Carlson Network, have accepted big bucks from Qatari investors, while interviewing Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani. He then announced his new purchase. I have been criticized as being a tool of Qatar, and I just want to say, which you already know, which is I have never taken anything from your country and don't plan to, Carlson said. I am, however, tomorrow buying a place in Qatar."
"He, earlier in the interview, asked Al Thani about critics like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) calling Qatar a terror state, based on its close ties to Hamas. Al Thani said Qatar was asked by the U.S. and Israel more than a decade ago to connect with Hamas, and that its communication with Hamas leaders and allowing some of them to live in Qatar helped end the War in Gaza."
Tucker Carlson announced plans to buy real estate in Doha and denied ever taking money from Qatar. He said he likes the city and framed the purchase as a statement of being an American free to go wherever he wants. The crowd gave a small round of applause. The Doha Forum featured speakers including Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump Jr., and Bill Gates. Carlson questioned Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani about U.S. critics calling Qatar a terror state. Al Thani said Qatar was asked by the U.S. and Israel to connect with Hamas, that hosting and communicating with Hamas leaders helped end the War in Gaza, and that Qatar will not contribute funds to rebuild Gaza.
