Carlson highlighted the government’s stance on privacy and document classification before dropping the F-bomb over his views.
“With no privacy, there’s no freedom,” Carlson stated.

“F—k you, actually.”
He wants answers as to why he's branded a “criminal” for desiring privacy around his text messages and financial transactions, while the government conceals “key decisions from us.”

He then turned his fire on the deep state controlled federal government, accusing it of using a double standard in handling sensitive information.
He pointed out that the government has classified over a billion documents, showing how taxpayers’ money is being spent.
Carlson said the secrecy is unacceptable because “our government” is acting on behalf of the people.
The former Fox News host expressed frustration at being labeled a “criminal” for desiring privacy in his financial transactions and private messages.
“So to take a lecture from them about how I’m a criminal because I want privacy in my financial transactions or my phone calls or my text messages, really? F—k you, actually,” he said.
Carlson dropped this F-bomb to convey his anger, emphasizing the depth of his frustration with the current state of affairs.
To support his argument, he cited historical events t, such as the lack of transparency surrounding the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump and the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
After 61 years after Kennedy’s death, some files related to the incident remain classified, Carlson noted.
He added that the government’s failure to declassify these documents is “prima facie evidence of a crime.”
Carlson also referenced former intelligence contractor and whistleblower Edward Snowden, who leaked classified information about NSA surveillance programs.
He asserted that true freedom in the country would only be achieved when Snowden could return to the United States and receive a “ticker tape parade,” a gesture that would signal to Americans, “We live in a free country.”
