So that "major victories" thing Trump just attributed to Fox is actually the headline of a FoxNews.com op-ed by Trump White House trade adviser Peter Navarro.
Outside of that, looks like some live-tweeting happening on a ~2 hour delay.

It's true that Tucker Carlson is saying something different from the rest of Fox on Iran, but it's important to review exactly what he is saying before arguing that he's on your side -- and to assess the possible downstream consequences.
The argument that Trump is being betrayed by advisers who want to distract his attention from the "invasion" and undocumented immigrants in the U.S. is well-crafted for Trump, a paranoid racist who responds to direct criticism with hyperaggression.
Problems include: 1) What happens if Trump does turn his attention back to vulnerable populations at the border/in this country? 2) How does the rest of the audience respond to the virulent "invasion" talk? mediamatters.org/immigration/ye…

How the Fox News Cabinet is responding to Soleimani's killing: They're going to shape Trump's worldview and response to a complex situation, and they're providing jingoistic cheerleading married to claims that critics are siding with the Iranian regime. mediamatters.org/fox-news/how-f…
One of the few strike opponents is Tucker Carlson, who is basically arguing that Trump himself is “wary” of war, but may have been “outmaneuvered” by his advisers into one in spite of his own convictions. It's a plea for Trump to listen to him more.
Also, it's Tucker Carlson, so the argument against killing Soleimani involves more-or-less explicitly bigotry. "The people demanding action against Iran tonight... are the very same ones demanding that you ignore the invasion of America now in progress from the south."

Asked if he's worried about prices going up because of Trump's trade war, White House trade adviser Peter Navarro describes the relatively low prices Americans are used to paying for goods as "the creation of unfair trade practices," urges people to "trust in Trump." 👀
