Newsmax host Eric Bolling has gone after former Fox News colleague Tucker Carlson over his remarks on the conflict in Ukraine, claiming that the prime-time host is an “ally” to the Russian cause.
“A couple weeks ago, we talked about some voices out there, voice of those who we believe are taking the wrong tack when it comes to talking about that war in Ukraine,” he opened the “Eric Bolling The Balance” segment, going on to note that he is “anti-war” and firmly believes in “securing American interests first.” This is a common refrain among conservatives and is deeply unpopular with those among the globalist cohort.
“But right now it’s clearer than ever that the atrocities we are witnessing day in and day out around this show and everywhere, the blatant, horrifying war crimes committed by Russians committed against Ukrainian civilians made it clear that, yes, in fact, this war is more black and white now, than ever,” Bolling explained. “And what’s worse, we are now seeing those war crimes being rewarded by a madman with the highest honor in the Russian military.”
“Make no mistake, Russia is on the wrong side of history,” Bolling declared as he continued. “And what’s more, if we say anything otherwise, then we are on the wrong side of history too.”
“So right now, my compadre [Carlson] continues to push falsehoods that Putin and his propagandists are exploiting to show that, yes, some Americans do indeed side with Russia in this war,” he said, throwing up a clip of one such video, which featured a segment between Carlson and Tulsi Gabbard, captioned with Russian writing.
“Yes, Tucker, as you say, [Russian President Vladimir] Putin did not invade our own border, but Putin did invade a sovereign state, spouting his historical lies,” Bolling mentioned, asking, “Why can’t we secure our own borders, but also support Ukraine?”
Bolling made sure to mention that the threat of Russian action doesn’t just stop at Ukraine, but explained that Putin is threatening the United States as well as its NATO allies, which translates to a direct threat to our sovereignty and national security.
Wrapping up, he solemnly declared that he believes Carlson has gone too far this time and needs to reel it in.
“Last night, Tucker, you said, our leaders always go too far, and I agree. But now I fear you’ve gone too far, too.”

I feel sad for Eric. His son, an only child, died of a drug overdose during his first college semester. I think he’s completely wrong on this issue. I wonder if he’s compromised in anyway.
Who is Eric Bolling?
Maybe Eric and his son could enlist and volunteer to fight.
Eric should hook up with Chris Wallace, another globalist hack.
i make $1000 a second you must be doing something wrong……….sarc
Poor Eric ..Fox News Loser, he had potential, he could have been a contenda, but instead he chose ‘dick pix’. Now he’s with a half baked newser that has that toe suckin pervert Dick Morris.
who needs to see hear a war mongering neocon that should devote his life to mentoring drug abusers and saving their lives and keep his beak or dick out of camera range
Here’s a thought Bolling…………..GFY !
Well said!
While these daggers are flying, I’d like to point out how Russia DID expose the criminality of our leadership in creating Bio-Labs in Ukraine. How would the world have ever known otherwise? It’s a violation of international law!
I see a parallel to the Cuban Missile Crisis. The US couldn’t allow enemy missiles within 75 miles of our border. Understandable. So, Russia couldn’t allow Bio-Weapons in proximity either! Same deal?
I think if the US Propaganda Machine could be silenced, we might understand how Putin is defending his border and people, just as JFK did. We praised Kennedy.
In my current state of distrust of everything, I can’t be sure our translations of Putin’s words are correct! Can you? After “Safe & Effective,” I know how our government devises “stories” to accomplish things that would horrify us, if we knew the truth.
Now, is no exception. We are being driven, herded, into a future we won’t like a bit!
Why would I NOT DISTRUST THIS GOVMINT? War with a nuclear super-power is suicide, yet that’s the road we’re on!
Agreed the dims blamed Putin for what they did to Trump.
WHERE WAS THIS IDIOT BOLLING WHEN THE DEMENTED ONE WAS RUNNING HIS MOUTH ABOUT PUTIN AND RUSSIA SO AS TO GET THIS WAR STARTED ?? F.J.B. AND PHUCKALL YOU LIBTURD AHOLES WHO THINK BEING INVOLVED ANYWAY AT ALL WITH THIS WAR IS RIGHT FOR OUR COUNTRY MORE !
Now, if Eric had made those comments his quick answer is that he does not have any control about what Russia does with what he said
I like both of these gentlemen, but Bolling is looking thru tunnel vision. Carlson is taking a much broader perspective in pointing out the left’s hypocrisy in seemingly caring about Ukraine’s borders while helping ours go to hell in a handbasket, caring about Ukraine’s sovereignty while destroying our own, pointing out our government’s lies about bio-labs in Ukraine and our involvement, pointing out the Nio-Nazis in Ukraine, the new world order global elite’s boots on the ground soldiers and related to Antifa here. Carlson is pointing out the left’s caring about democracy in Ukraine while destroying it here.
Ukraine is not a true democracy as we think democracy. The government owns Barisma Oil. The officials are more selected rather than truly elected. They are a democracy of the nature of Venezuela, Iran and yes even Russia where they have elections but controlled outcomes. It’s a corrupt strong hold of the world globalist elites where they were doing their money laundering. The war mongering left has never cared that much about common people if they can’t benefit from them so maybe there is mre reason they care more about Ukraine’s border than ours.
None of this means that Carson or anyone doesn’t care and feel for the true Ukrainian people that are getting the short end of the stick or support Russia. Carlson is pointing out the fact that the left is using the war as a distraction to further their agenda here.
Why would any of us care what Bolling has to say ?
Too bad this site has removed the ability to respond to individual comments. Bad move but I doubt they really care what it’s users think. However, I will say this- like most conservatives, Bolling included, I don’t believe American troops should be involved in the war. But the commenters below would have been t like the Americans who turned away the Jewish refugee ship that had arrived in NY harbor seeking escape from Nazi extermination. It was denied, and eventually many of those aboard died in the concentration camps.
How anyone, especially Americans who grew up with the American principles of helping not only this country but also those suffering from genocide ( and don’t tell me this isn’t a Russian attempt at destroying the Ukrainian people who have defied Putin’s goal
of total subjugation of that nation) and blatant war crimes can say it’s not concerning OUR borders so we should stand aside.
We have always been a compassionate people, more so than any a nation ever on earth and we should continue that principle by aiding a suffering people who wanted more than to be free from totalitarian control and to build their own form of free government.
As for Ukrainian corruption. Yes, it has been bad, going back to its Soviet Union days. But change doesn’t come easily, and if you go by those standards, the US government has become every bit as corrupt as that in Ukraine. I could spend pages listing just the corrupt actions taken in the last four years but every honest person with open eyes knows what I’m referring to.
As for Zelenskyy, I don’t know any details about his background, character attacks are as widespread there as they are here. But history has shown great leaders rising from lesser backgrounds – Lincoln was ambivalent about the fate of slavery yet rose to be a leader who both saved our Union by his determination and faith in our foundings and brought about the total freedom of an enslaved people even in the face of strong opposition in many areas. Winston Churchill was not that universally popular among the British people yet he over came personal difficulties to rise up as a staunch anti-fascist leader who kept his country together in the most disastrous of times.
All this is to say that the war instigated by Putin against an innocent, non- threatening Ukraine is more than a regional fight. It’s over the universal principles of people fighting for their freedom against a totalitarian invader, and the attempt to wipe out another people through extermination, torture, killing of innocent civilians including women and children. Do we turn our heads away from this abominable criminal behavior the way the nations did in the 1915 genocide by Turkey against the Armenian people? Or the 1930s attempt by Stalin to starve to death the Ukrainian people because they wouldn’t go along with his dictatorial desires against them? Or ignoring what we knew of the Nazi concentration camps set up to exterminate the Jews of Europe?
What’s happening in Ukraine today is the same genocidal activity as those just mentioned. Do we do nothing? As those commenters below are advocating? I believe the US, as a moral nation, has an obligation to give all assistance possible ( short of our own military involvement) to end this inhumane treatment of an innocent people.
What are YOU talking about? I just replied to YOUR comment.
Bolling is going to reduce the viewership of Newsmax if he keeps criticizing Tucker in this fashion. Bolling needs to rethink his apparent “boots on the ground” approach. I’m having enough trouble trying to bring OANN back into my home. If need be, I can do without Newsmax if I have to!
They are trying to jab as many people as possible so that their great reset aka depopulation plan work. If I get sick I will take my Ivermectin that I stashed just in case and leave rest to God. When i searched where I can get ivm on google I couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for. Every search query was censored. If I can save 1 person that will use this product instead of going to icu and plugged into ventilators that will burst her/his lungs. that is enough for me. I feel good when I put a spoke in big pharma’s wheel. If you want to get Ivermectin you can visit ivmcures.com
Sorry, Eric, but many of us have actually LISTENED to both Carlson and Gabbard on this issue.
As horrifying as what’s going on in Ukraine is, Bolling is grossly off base on this one…. He says he’s America first, but follows that with “Why can’t we secure our own borders, but also support Ukraine?”
We can support Ukraine with $$$ and equipment, but Bolling seems to be suggesting we can also involve our young men and women and that is NOT putting America first! We simply cannot solve every sovereign state issue on earth with our people dying…I will add that if we really want to solve some issues of war crimes, etc., we should look first at the continent of Africa.
It seems to me that the Ukrainian Government, Zelenskyy esp., is corrupt and very much in league with the WEF and Globalists. They are corrupt in the same way our Government, (esp. the Biden/Obama admin), is corrupt and for the same reasons. Who is suffering and will continue to suffer? The regular people of both countries. The innocents being bombed and executed, sometimes under very clouded circumstances. Tucker is correct in not wanting to get dragged into this conflict. It does not make him a Putin supporter. In my view, it makes him a supporter of the American people.
I agree. Zelensky is a tyrant and a Nazi, Putin is a power-hungry madman, Beijing Biden is a criminal and a fool. The three amigos.
Carlson simply sees the reality of the Military Industrial Complex that Eisenhower warned us against reeling in the American public in another military disaster for this country. Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Isn’t enough enough? LockheedMartin up big on the market again.
F*** you, Bolling! The only thing that should matter to real Americans is the complete and utter destruction of the dem party and woke liberals – period!
The fact that you’ve allowed yourself to get distracted from that goal means that you either have your priorities jacked up, or it was never your goal to begin with and you’re a f’ing fraud RINO.
So, which is it?
Bolling and “Sick Dick” Morris wish they could get 1/10th of the audience that Tucker has. And between the two of them, they don’t even have a fraction of the intelligence and brain-power of Tucker. They are globalists and war-mongers, and want to drag the US into a war with Russia. Bolling and Morris are dead wrong; Tucker is right. It seems like Newsmax picks up all of the trash that Fox throws out.
I
ve suspected for quite awhile that Tucker is a Pat Buchanan neo-isolationist, as, Tuckers comments about not only Russia, but, most of the world, are almost exactly the same as Buchanans. Whether one agrees with this PoV, one must note that Buchanan is a long time Jew/Israel hater, which I find very distasteful. Its interesting that Tucker not only never discusses Israel, but, regularly brings on so called “experts”, such as Lt. Colonel McGregor, who is obviously an Israel hater, to bolster Tuckers neo-isolationist takes on world issues.s show, and, often agree with him on many topics, but, in this matter, I`m not in accord with him.I enjoy Tucker
No mention of the war crimes committed by the Ukrainian soldiers, of course. No mention of the missiles launches into civilian parts of Russia by Ukraine. No mention of the deeply-fascist Azov battalion (literal modern-day Nazis). No mention of the broken relationship of Russia/NATO. No mention of NATO being the aggressor on Russia’s doorstep. No mention of the deep corruption in the Ukrainian leadership. No mention of the fact that Zelensky is a paid actor, a puppet shill installed by the US who will retire an extraordinarily rich man after he puts his countrymen into the meat grinder.
I am sorry for the people of Ukraine but we have neocons and neolibs who are chafing at the bit to go to war. Tucker is spot on when he says these same people are immune from the negative impact this will have on our country. The mere fact that members of our ruling class, the same people making these decisions, have made serious mistakes in the past that led to disastrous outcomes and were never held accountable for their blunders. In fact they were rewarded and promoted.
Well Bolling you had me for a while until you started to sound like Dick freaking Morris…
And so it begins…First Levin(Without mentioning Tucker by name) and now Bolling.
Told ya’ so!
Eric Bolling’s Comment–“Yes, Tucker, as you say, [Russian President Vladimir] Putin did not invade our own border, but Putin did invade a sovereign state, spouting his historical lies,” Bolling mentioned, asking, “Why can’t we secure our own borders, but also support Ukraine?” Eric, why don’t you answer that question as I think Tucker’s point was just that we are not doing anything about our border but you seem so concerned about another countries border that just maybe you did not notice this. I have never got the impression that Tucker or any of his guest are for Putin but only that they want to remind people in our country that we need to be concerned about our country and the real problems we are having.
