Former FOX News host Tucker Carlson teased an interview with Larry Sinclair on social media on Tuesday.

In the interview, Sinclair, who is a convicted con artist, claims to have encountered the former president outside a bar in 1999.

Sinclair's claims

Carlson posted a teaser clip from the interview on his X account on Tuesday saying he will post the full interview on Wednesday.

This is not the first time that Sinclair, who has a long criminal history including forgery, fraud and larceny charges, had previously disclosed the same story.

In 2008 during the presidential election, he revealed his story through several channels, including a press conference, but his claims were dismissed since he couldn't prove the interaction took place. It is also worth noting that he got arrested after said press conference due to an outstanding warrant.

In the teaser clip from the recent interview, Sinclair recounts how in 1999 he gave Obama $250 dollars for cocaine which he snorted and Obama smoked before the two engaged in two separate sex encounters, one in the back of a limo and the second in a hotel room in Gurnee, Illinois.

Obama was the Illinois state senator at the time.

Carlson called Sinclair's claims as "credible information that he's smoking crack and having sex with dudes".

Carlson reviving old story

Tucker Carlson decided to revive the long-defunct controversial story during his participation on Adam Carolla's podcast last week saying "in 2008, it became really clear that Barack Obama had been having sex with men and smoking crack...A guy came forward, Larry Sinclair, and said 'I'll sign an affidavit' and he did, 'I'll do a lie detector' and he did".

What Carlson seems to forget is that Sinclair failed the lie detector test back in 2008 and then went on to accuse David Axelrod (one of Obama's advisors) of having bribed the examiners.

Carlson, who is now producing his own political commentary show on X, was fired by FOX News in April.
