John Oliver was back at it again with Last Week Tonight on Max and threw some darts at frequent target Tucker Carlson. The former Fox News host caught some strays from the comedian amid a discussion on homeschooling.While exposing the varied reasons people have to homeschool, the show aired an interview from Today where a fifteen-year-old asked to be taken out of the school system after suffering from bullying.“I felt more confident. It was kind of like a sunshine — the clouds opened…,” Victoria said after starting to get homeschooled.Oliver then said, “That’s great. That is very nice. And I know that’s not something you usually hear me say after a clip on this show.”“It’s usually a variation of ‘That’s horrible’ or ‘That’s heartbreaking,'” Oliver continued before an image of Carlson appeared on screen and quipped saying, “Or shut the f**k up you baby bi**h lawn dart.”During his time on Fox News, Carlson was a frequent target for Oliver. Carlson was fired from the cable channel back in April and would reappear on X, known at the time as Twitter, days later sharing a cryptic video message.A little over a month later, Carlson started broadcasting his show on the Elon Musk-owned social media platform. His former timeslot at FNC went to Jesse Watters with a lead-in from Laura Ingraham.Back in July, Carlson claimed he didn’t know the exact reason he was ousted from Fox News.
