Something has snapped—and Tucker Carlson isn’t holding back anymore.

In a fiery monologue that aired without warning, Carlson unleashed a stunning tirade, directly accusing a well-known Fox News reporter of being part of a hidden elite force he called “the deepest of the deep state.”

Without naming names at first, he described calculated deception, internal sabotage, and a years-long manipulation of viewers’ trust.

Then he turned the camera—and his wrath—toward a familiar face. What followed was a jaw-dropping moment of raw accusation and bitter fallout.

But was this just a personal vendetta, or has Carlson unearthed something far more sinister beneath the network’s polished surface?

The whispers have turned into roars behind the scenes, and the gloves are officially off.

In a rare and candid moment on his June 23, 2025 podcast, conservative firebrand Tucker Carlson didn’t hold back when calling out one of his former Fox News colleagues, Pentagon correspondent Jennifer Griffin.

Far from the loyal, trustworthy journalist many believe her to be, Carlson labeled Griffin a “shill” for the “deepest of deep states,” accusing her of pushing a liberal, anti-Trump agenda under the Fox News banner.

Tucker’s blunt assessment stunned many viewers and ignited a firestorm among conservatives who have long suspected that not everyone on the Fox payroll toes the MAGA line.

Speaking with guest Clayton Morris, Carlson described Griffin as “very liberal” and “a true Trump hater,” accusing her of routinely misleading Fox’s audience with biased reporting

.“I tried not to complain about other people at Fox because I don’t like office politics,” Carlson admitted, “but Jen Griffin was discrediting the channel. She’s a liar, but also very liberal. It was so obvious.”

Carlson went further, painting Griffin as more than just a critic of Trump—he called her a deep state operative masquerading as a journalist. “She’s like a parody of the deep state media,” he said. “Her internal memos were full of angry screeds—reading Politico Playbook, Mother Jones, all the left-wing nonsense.”

What’s more shocking, Carlson revealed, is that despite her clear bias, Griffin was untouchable at Fox. “I asked an executive, ‘What are we doing with Jennifer Griffin? She’s an idiot. She misleads our viewers and hates Trump.’ And I was told, ‘You can’t touch Jennifer.’ I don’t know why.”

This insider revelation suggests a troubling level of tolerance—or even protection—for those within Fox News who undermine the conservative base the network is supposed to serve.

Griffin’s defenders came quickly to her aid. After Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth publicly slammed her on June 26, calling her “the worst” and accusing her of intentionally misrepresenting President Biden’s statements about airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, some Fox veterans jumped in.

Brit Hume, a Fox News staple, praised Griffin’s “professionalism, knowledge, and experience at the Pentagon” and called the attacks against her “unfair.” But conservatives skeptical of the network’s internal politics see this as the usual establishment bandwagon rallying around one of their own, regardless of the damage done to the truth.

Carlson’s explosive critique exposes what many on the right have long suspected: Fox News, while a haven for conservative commentary, is not immune to deep state infiltration and internal conflicts. Jennifer Griffin’s role as a Pentagon correspondent gave her a platform to shape the narrative, but according to Carlson, she used it to sabotage the Trump movement and push the agenda of the “deepest of deep states.”

This controversy raises a bigger question for conservatives tuning into Fox News: Who is really controlling the narrative? And how many more “Jennifers” are there—trusted faces with hidden agendas—quietly undermining the cause?

For now, Tucker Carlson’s bold accusations have cracked open a door many conservatives hoped would never be forced. It’s a stark reminder that even within supposedly friendly media, the battle for truth and loyalty continues.
