Conservative podcasting titan Tucker Carlson said he and his staff were detained in Israel on Wednesday following an interview with Donald Trump's ambassador to the country. Carlson, who also frequently criticizes Israel for its military actions in Gaza, took Huckabee up on his offer.

'It is not accurate that Israel only was going to let Tucker into the country for the interview,' the representative added.
