JTA — Jewish figures on the far right are increasingly expressing concerns about President Donald Trump’s handling of a rift over antisemitism in the Republican party, after Tucker Carlson reportedly visited the White House for the third time in weeks on Monday.

Of late, Carlson has increasingly used his show to criticize Israel and lean into friendly interviews with conspiracy theorists and white nationalists, including Nick Fuentes. This week’s White House visit, reported by Punchbowl News, came days after Carlson’s combative interview with Trump’s ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, which ignited antisemitism allegations and a diplomatic row with Arab leaders.

After the Huckabee interview, Carlson also appeared on Saudi state-owned TV, in an appearance where he called the Gaza war a “land grab” for Israel, and repeated his past claims that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is “evil and destructive.” Carlson has ties with both Saudi Arabia and Qatar, where he has said he intends to buy property and has hosted high-profile events.

Laura Loomer, a far-right Jewish activist, has staked out a warpath against Carlson’s continued access to the Trump administration.

“It seems like a suicide mission for any Christian or Jew who doesn’t idolize Hitler to keep donating to the GOP,” Loomer posted on X late Monday. In a follow-up, she wrote, “It’s like I woke up one day and 90% of the people I’ve come to know on the right over the last 10 years have morphed into different people.”

Loomer’s explosion of anger and angst is significant because she has boasted of close ties to Trump and has appeared to hold some sway over White House hiring. In the past, when she has targeted administration staffers or potential hires, many have been spiked quickly. Now, as she raises alarms about Carlson and antisemitism on the right, the White House has remained silent.

“It’s shocking that I have to say this, but the GOP has a major identity crisis right now, the GOP has a growing Jew hate and foreign influence problem, and the party seems to be in a struggle session with Neo Nazis who they aren’t explicitly rejecting,” Loomer posted on X. “My advice is for people to not donate at this time till we get clarity from the party on what the party’s position is on these issues.”

Other Jewish figures on the far right, including radio host Mark Levin and pro-Israel activist Sloan Rachmuth, sided with Loomer against Carlson.

“He should be condemned by the White House, not invited to it,” Levin posted on X.

Carlson’s reported White House visit was one of several he has made recently. Seen as a bellwether........
