As a Christian Jew, I was appalled by what Nick Fuentes said! Tucker Carlson has made himself a problem for me. My subscription to him is up next month and I won’t be subscribing again. I’m not about cancel culture nor do I want to advocate for it but we all have the right to choose who and what we listen to.
Hello Caroline! Thank you for your question. Trust me, your question is not the only time I’ve been asked about my faith.
A "Christian Jew" is someone like me—ethnically Jewish but embracing Jesus as the Messiah. While the term is often used, many opt for phrases like "Messianic Jew" or "Jewish follower of Jesus" to highlight that they preserve their Jewish heritage and traditions, rather than fully transitioning into mainstream Christianity. Historically, the phrase also traces back to early Jewish-origin believers in Jesus, used in academic circles to describe those foundational roots. I was raised Jewish but inside I knew there was something missing.
This is incredible and very much appreciated. At first I wasn’t sure where you headed and I was nervous. However I think you balanced it perfectly at then end with the big tent philosophy. We are stronger together with standards and let’s REALLY practice debate again. We only make our own arguments stronger when we can accept constructive criticism/feedback. How we receive and GIVE that feedback is what matters. Liberty must prevail.
Your distinction between challenging Fuentes on smaller platforms versus platforming him unchallenged to millions is exactly right. The Ted Cruz interview proved Tucker knows how to press hard when he wants to, which makes the Fuentes softballs even more damning. Free speech requires friction, not just amplification. Roberts' pledge to never distance from Tucker, right after claiming his only loyalty is to Christ and America, exposed the contradiction perfectly. That's not principl, that's brand management disguised as conviction.
I think…Tucker Carlson has the right to bring whoever onto his little show and treat them however he wants. Nick and Tucker (and Candace, and Ben Shapiro…) have been quite vicious to each other at times. This was not one of those times.
I actually enjoyed the interview. Yes, I’ve listened to Nick Fuentes for several years. I dislike Tucker Carlson, who for all his insistence on being “sincere” comes across as manufactured and false. Ultimately, I don’t care about it much.
I do know this: you cannot serve two masters at the same time.
Wow...I can't agree more with your view! Excellent article which needs to be published and read by everyone. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Please excuse my ignorance. What is a Christian Jew?
Jewish ethnicity, ancestry, or cultural heritage but follows Christianity as their religion..
