'War is coming': MAGA provocateur uncorks ominous prediction for Trump's mystery speech

President Donald Trump will announce "a war is coming" between the U.S. and Venezuela in his Wednesday night speech, according to right-wing broadcaster Tucker Carlson.

Carlson made the remarks on Wednesday during an interview with former Judge Andrew Napolitano. Both men are former Fox News employees.

"Is Trump going to start a war in Venezuela?" Napolitano wondered.

"I don't know," Carlson replied. "I don't know the answer. I've certainly been on the phone a lot about it. I have no power. I'm a podcaster, but I'm very interested. And so here's what I know so far, which is that members of Congress were briefed yesterday, that a war is coming, and it'll be announced in the address to the nation tonight at 9 o'clock by the president."

"Who knows, by the way, if that will actually happen. I don't know. And I never want to overstate what I know, which is pretty limited in general. But a member of Congress told me that this morning."
