Blake Neff, the head writer at “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” was responsible for many of the words that came out of Carlson’s mouth. As he once boasted to Dartmouth’s alumni magazine, “Anything he’s reading off the teleprompter, the first draft was written by me.” The anti-immigrant and racist sentiments that dominated the show came naturally to Neff. At the same time that Neff was writing for Carlson—first as a reporter at the Daily Caller and then as a staffer on “Tucker Carlson Tonight”—he was also writing posts on a racist and sexist message board called AutoAdmit. Posting under the username CharlesXII, the eighteenth-century Swedish warrior king who later became an icon for Swedish neo-Nazis, Neff joked about “foodie faggots” and proposed an “Urban business idea: He Didn’t Do Muffin!,” which would sell “Sandra Bland’s Sugar-free Shortbreads!”—a reference to the twenty-eight-year-old Black woman who, in 2015, was taken into custody by a Texas state trooper after a traffic stop and was later found dead in her jail cell, becoming an early symbol of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Neff agreed with other AutoAdmit commenters who argued that Michael Brown deserved to be killed by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, complaining that “the violent criminals are even MORE heroic to Black people.” He claimed that the four liberal congresswomen known as the Squad—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib—want to “MAKE YOUR COUNTRY A DUMPING GROUND FOR PEOPLE FROM THIRD WORLD SHITHOLES.” In another post, Neff warned that “once Democrats have the majorities to go full F**K WHITEY, things are going to get really wacky really quickly” and lamented that “there’s a suicidal impulse to Western peoples that honestly feels almost biological in origin.”

In July, 2020, after a CNN reporter discovered Neff’s AutoAdmit posts, Neff resigned from Fox News. (Years later, Neff, who went on to work as a producer on Charlie Kirk’s podcast, would maintain that he was “the least racist person on AutoAdmit,” noting that, unlike many of the site’s users, “I never posted the N-word.”) Carlson, for his part, said that he was unaware of the posts. “We don’t endorse those words,” he said. “They have no connection to this show.” But Neff’s AutoAdmit habit was not a secret to some people he worked with. At the Daily Caller, Neff bragged about his posts to at least one colleague. “He was really proud of his AutoAdmit persona,” a former Caller staffer remembered. And Neff’s connection to Carlson was not a secret on AutoAdmit, either. In 2017, when Scott Greer, who had been a colleague of Carlson’s and Neff’s at the Daily Caller, appeared on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” to promote his book “No Campus for White Men,” Neff dropped a favorite AutoAdmit catchphrase—“the sweet treats of scholarship”—into Carlson’s script introducing Greer. Neff’s fellow AutoAdmit members didn’t miss the Easter egg. “We maed [sic] it,” one wrote.

This is just patently false. Of course this faggot would throw his brothers under the bus to protect himself.

Is it any wonder that he is now on the Jewish payroll?

Carlson rebuilt, pursuing fractured dreams.

A nationalist crusade, a voice taking hold,

Stories amplified, both new and old.

But whispers linger, a shadowed side,

Of currents lurking, where darkness does reside.

A writer's hand, shaping the fray,

Blake Neff's hidden world, leading words astray.

On AutoAdmit, a venomous stream,

Racist pronouncements, a hateful scheme.

“Sweet treats of scholarship,” a coded call,

While building narratives destined to fall.

He fed the monster, fueled the fiery brand,

Igniting prejudice across the land.

Carlson, unaware, or choosing not to see,

The architect of rhetoric, dangerously free.

The Daily Stormer hailed the broadcast's grace,

Mirroring hatred in a familiar space.

From vile comments to segments on the air,

A complicity woven, a burden to bear.

Neff departed, the secret exposed,

But the damage lingered, the seeds he’d sowed.

A system enabling the darkness within,

Where ambition masked a far greater sin.

So listen closely to the words that flow,

Beyond the talking head, the polished show.

For static and shadows, a hidden design,

And the ghost of a writer, crossing the line.

The nationalist broadcast, a perilous art,

Built on foundations tearing worlds apart.

And somewhere within, a dark secret sleeps,

In the words of Blake Neff, and the silence he keeps.
