Former President Donald Trump sharply criticized several well-known conservative media personalities in a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform, targeting figures who have at times diverged from him on foreign policy and political strategy.
In the post, Trump singled out commentators Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones, accusing them of opposing his stance on preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and questioning their influence within the broader MAGA movement.
Trump argued that the commentators’ views do not reflect the direction of his political base and suggested their platforms have lost influence compared with the support he says he continues to receive from supporters.
The remarks highlight an ongoing rift inside parts of conservative media, where some commentators who were once closely aligned with Trump have increasingly criticized aspects of his policy positions and campaign messaging.
Trump also used the post to reiterate his long-standing criticism of major news outlets such as CNN and The New York Times, accusing them of giving positive coverage to voices he described as outside the core MAGA movement.
The post comes amid continuing debates within conservative media circles about foreign policy, influence campaigns online and the role prominent commentators play in shaping political narratives across television, podcasts and social platforms.
