Tucker Carlson's latest batch of merch is – to some's surprise – striking a chord with both political sides of the aisle.
The conversative talking head released a new line of merchandise on his Tucker Carlson Network website in early March, including t-shirts, hoodies, ballcaps and mugs. The merch takes ironic jabs at a more liberal-leaning audience, with an "NYC" beanie that depicts a hammer and sickle – the widespread symbol for communism – in place of the C, a T-shirt that bears "Sorry, I thought you were a Fed," and a coffee mug that reads, "Nation Building is Gay."
In a March 3 Instagram post, the network promoted a T-shirt that reads, "AIPAC. An offer you can't refuse," in reference to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, and a ballcap with "Neocons are Gay for War" across the front. Neoconservatism (neocon) is a political ideology associated with a strong government presence in foreign affairs, including a robust military.
"It’s time we show our disdain for the endless foreign wars destroying our country and expose those propagating them," the Tucker Carlson Network wrote in the Instagram post.
The merchandise ranges from $25 for mugs to $60 for zip-up hoodies. USA TODAY reached out to the Tucker Carlson Network for more information about the merchandise.
