EXCLUSIVE: Former Tucker Carlson producer Abby Grossberg tells Rolling Stone how the host threatened to “destroy” Republicans who refused to do his bidding.
A rep for McCaul declined to comment.
When not wielding his time slot against Republican politicians who defied his ideology, Carlson was trying to set himself up as a kingmaker amid Kevin McCarthy’s drawn-out fight to win the speaker’s gavel in the House, according to Grossberg.
“They would speak about what McCarthy wanted and his bid to be Speaker,” Grossberg says. “From there they would bring Matt Gaetz into the conversation and Matt Gaetz would lay out his demands, and Tucker would also send his demands for McCarthy that he felt needed to be included and concessions he should make to be Speaker.
