Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) went on a rant against former Fox News host Tucker Carlson during an interview with Piers Morgan released Wednesday, firing another salvo in the public feud between the two.
"Why don't we try and end where you both agree on something, all right?" asked the host of "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on YouTube. He steered the conversation away from fellow guest and former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan demanding Crenshaw answer for the pardons President Donald Trump issued to January 6 insurrectionists. "Dan's ongoing spat with Tucker Carlson. Now this began when you were caught, you thought you were off camera, still on mic, saying he was the worst person, you've talked a lot on Twitter about your beef, you've said, I'm going to f'ing kill him."
Morgan noted that Crenshaw clarified this was hyperbole and he had no intention of harming Carlson, and then played a clip of Carlson on a podcast blasting Crenshaw as "out of control" and a "freak and a warmonger" with an unstable personal life.
"Dan, your response to being a freak, a warmonger, and a weirdo?" asked Morgan.

"Well, this is typical for Tucker," said Crenshaw. "Tucker has no actual substance, right? He's been attacking me since 2022 when he became obsessed with me. I live rent-free in that little mongrel's head." He went on to add that Carlson can't even articulate why he hates him.
"See, I can tell you why Mehdi disagrees with me, I can tell you why he doesn't like me," added Crenshaw, nodding to his fellow guest. "At least he has things that he disagrees with me on. Tucker never actually says anything. It's just insults, you know, he'll use my war wounds to insult me, he's a weird, bad guy. I mean, people should not be tricked by his supposed stance against the D.C. insider elites, right? Because he literally is that."
"I mean, you know what's on the Hunter Biden laptops? Know what's funny?" he continued. "Emails from Tucker Carlson to Hunter Biden, asking Hunter Biden for help getting Tucker's son into Georgetown. You know, Tucker's a silver spoon fed trust fund baby, went to boarding school guy, the epitome of D.C. elites, who pretends to fight against it in order to corner a market in the media. You know, he's begged us to go on our show ... we've said, look, how about you do a moderated debate, and he said, no, no, we're not going to do that. So, you know, I don't think he's a very serious person. Maybe he used to be, I don't see that anymore. I'm out of control on Twitter because once in a while I respond harshly to lies told about me? Yeah, I just don't take it lying down. Yeah, that's me. I apologize to no one for it."
