From The Gateway Pundit:
A video has just been released showing a 35-yr-old man by the name of Vasiliev Pyotr Alexeieovich, who claims he was ordered by the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ukraine Ministry of Defense in November 2023 to take an explosive device to the parking garage of the Four Seasons Hotel in Moscow and place it under the vehicle used to transport Tucker Carlson.
Mr. Alexeievich claims he was going to be paid $4,000 for completing the task of attaching the explosive device to Carlson’s vehicle, but he was detained in the planning process.
Near the end of the videotaped confession, the stone-faced alleged criminal admits his target was “American journalist Tucker Carlson” and says, “I’m sorry for what I did.”
And from Simon Ateba, chief White House Correspondent at Today News Africa in Washington:

SEE IT: Someone added a community note to my post on the attempted assassination of Tucker Carlson, saying it's fabricated propaganda from the Kremlin, and added a link from the Carnegie org in the US that says Russia and the Kremlin lie all the time.
