Ezra Levant | October 31, 2025 | News Analysis
Antisemitism isn’t just about money or hatred. It’s a unique belief that Jews are a “cosmic barrier to heaven,” and their removal would solve all problems.
On The Ezra Levant Show, held on Halloween, Levant addressed the alarming rise of antisemitism within America’s “conservative” movement. He highlighted Nick Fuentes, an online figure prominent on TikTok, whose neo-Nazi provocations include support for Stalin, opposition to Trump, and blame directed at Jews and Black people. Fuentes also admires Hitler, denies the Holocaust’s extent, and boasted about sabotaging Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA before Kirk’s assassination.
Tucker Carlson, who has adopted anti-Christian Zionist views, recently conducted a surprisingly lenient interview with Fuentes, who celebrated Stalin’s birthday—a detail Carlson overlooked. This contrasts sharply with his harsh treatment of Ted Cruz. Levant questioned whether Carlson’s alliance with Fuentes signals an effort to normalize radical ideologies.
The collaboration between Carlson and Fuentes underscores the “woke right” phenomenon, raising concerns about conservative tolerance for extreme fringe elements. Will the right embrace figures like Fuentes, Carlson, and Candace Owens, adopting a “no enemies to the right” policy?
Levant also scrutinized J.D. Vance’s Q&A at a Turning Point USA event, where Vance’s remarks about his wife’s religious preferences were interpreted as appeasement to antisemitic factions. Levant challenged Vance with three direct questions: Does he believe Jews or Judaism persecute Christians? Is Israel a threat to Christianity in the Middle East? And does he think Israel controls U.S. presidents?
Levant expressed concern that Vance might be aligning with an “insatiable racist movement,” urging him to clarify his stance. Meanwhile, guest Lorne Gunter discussed Alberta’s political landscape amid potential labor strikes.
The discussion revealed deep divisions within conservative circles, with critics accusing figures like Fuentes of spreading dangerous ideologies and undermining traditional values. Levant emphasized the need for clarity and vigilance against radical influences infiltrating mainstream discourse.
