During an interview with Steve Krakauer on ‘The Fourth Watch Podcast,’ Tucker Carlson said his son in the Capitol building during the January 6th riot. Carlson’s son Buckley Carlson, is employed as an aide for Indiana Republican Rep. Jim Banks.
“I hated what happened on January 6, you know.” the Fox News host said.. “One of my kids was actually in the building when it happened. I was on the phone in real time. I’m from Washington. I hate disorder. I hate breaking windows above all else. I just don’t like when people break windows or litter. I’m about order and my house is clean, I really believe in that.”

“So if people covering January 6th had been willing to just roughly tell the truth,” Carlson added. “[…] but not use it as a partisan instrument to suspend civil liberties, I kinda would’ve just let it lie. Okay, people got all wound up, I get it. Some of them misbehaved, I’m not gonna defend that, but it has been used like so many events throughout history as a pretext for something else. So they lie about what actually happened, they repeat the lie with maximum aggression, and over time, that lie solidifies into the common understanding of what happened.”
