They have an urgent message for protecting America’s future.
Comedian Rob Schneider and political commentator Tucker Carlson recently ended an interview with a prayer, discussing Schneider’s conversion to Catholicism and his complicated relationship with his daughter, Elle King. The interview began with Carlson addressing King’s public criticisms of Schneider, where she had accused him of body-shaming her during her childhood and focusing more on his acting career than on her well-being. Carlson expressed concern, describing the situation as a family tragedy.
In response, Schneider offered a sincere apology to King, expressing regret for not being the father she needed and hoping she could forgive his past shortcomings. He conveyed his deep love and best wishes for her and her child, emphasizing that he did not take her criticisms personally.
The conversation then shifted to Schneider’s spiritual journey. He shared his experience of converting to Catholicism, a decision he announced on social media last October. Schneider recounted how witnessing the transformation of a friend and experiencing the kindness of Christians had a profound impact on him, leading him to embrace the faith.
Schneider described his faith as a source of great comfort and healing, despite periods of doubt. He felt a persistent sense that Jesus would support him in times of need. At the interview’s end, Schneider read a reflection on forgiveness and letting go of past grievances, before concluding with a prayer for his daughter, the country, and all those facing difficulties. Carlson responded with an “Amen,” bringing their conversation to a close.
