Former Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake implored former Fox News host Tucker Carlson to not let the network pay him millions to remain silent and to break his contractual ties with them so he can speak up and help save the country over the next year and a half.

Lake excoriated Fox News for crawling into bed with the left and silencing the most prominent conservative voice out there when they fired Carlson.

The now-former Fox News star was shockingly fired on Monday morning with no warning. The network claimed that they agreed to part ways but the scuttlebutt is that they fired their biggest draw for reasons that are not entirely clear at this point. Conservatives were stunned by the move and Carlson has yet to speak out on what happened.

His termination came after Fox News settled with Dominion Voting Systems for almost $800 million while facing a lawsuit from a former Carlson producer who is conveniently alleging sexual harassment and discrimination at the network. Then there is the fact that Carlson was reportedly prepping a show on Jan. 6 instigator Ray Epps and the fact that he was still exposing footage from that protest.

Lake appeared on Newsmax’s Tuesday edition of “The Balance” hosted by Eric Bolling. The former Fox News host tore into Fox News, accusing the network of pushing “globalism.”

Can’t wait to see the bidding war for his content.

“It’s very obvious right now that Fox News has become the establishment GOP, which is really uni-party Republicans,” she pointed out. “They’re the ones who are really in bed with the left.”

Lake went on to claim that Fox News “cannot afford to have hosts who are pushing Americanism” like Tucker Carlson.

“It’s the Democrats and the Republicans and the uni-party who are pushing a globalist agenda, and they can’t afford to have hosts who are pushing Americanism, who are America-first and love this country. They can’t afford to have a Tucker Carlson speaking out over the next year and a half because it will ruin their push towards globalism,” she charged, making reference to the time between now and the next presidential election.

It is likely that Carlson is still under contract with Fox News even though he has been terminated. He was reportedly making almost $20 million a year and they may try and use that to silence him and keep the conservative icon from speaking out. Lake is begging him to not let that happen. She is asking him to break any contractual ties with the network and find a way to resurface, come back, and speak for Americans to help them defeat the Left before it is too late.

“I worry,” Lake remarked, “I don’t know what Tucker’s deal is, but I worry that he might still be under contract and they’re literally going to be paying him 10, 20, $30 million a year to just sit there and be quiet. We can’t afford to have Tucker Carlson’s voice silenced for a year and a half.”

She then made her appeal to Carlson, one that millions of Americans hope and pray he will heed.

“I don’t know if Tucker’s listening to this, but if he happens to hear it, I beg you, Tucker Carlson, to speak out,” she implored. “Break the terms of that contract. We need your voice over the next year and a half to save our country. And if you get sued by your former employer, we will help create a defense fund to help you fight that lawsuit. We need your voice. We need every American’s voice who cares about this country in the next year and a half to save our Constitution and to save our country.”

And the people will follow you to support you and hear what you have to say, Tucker—just as we freely follow Kari!

Lake advised other hosts at Fox News as well to not be used by a network that no longer embraces conservative values.

“What I say to every host that is left on Fox News, which is the establishment news channel: Do not let them use your voice, your reputation, your heart, and your soul to push propaganda about establishment politics that are going to destroy our country,” she urged. “Step away. Don’t let those golden handcuffs handcuff you to an agenda and narrative and propaganda that you don’t support.”

“This is your time to stand up with a year and a half to save our country,” Lake asserted.
