Tucker Carlson does not represent ‘any significant portion' of the MAGA base
US Republican Senator Ted Cruz and conservative commentator Tucker Carlson have gone head-to-head in a heated debate over the conflict in the Middle East.
This comes as United States President Donald Trump weighs up the potential for involvement in the conflict.
'The idea that there is a significant part of the Republican Party that is pacifist or isolationist or anti-Israel, is a fiction,' Mr Hinderaker told Sky News host Rita Panahi.

Restoration of biological definitions under Sex Discrimination Act blocked by Labor
Women's Forum Australia Chief Executive Rachael Wong discusses Labor's blocking of debate concerning the restoration of biological definitions under the Sex Discrimination Act. 'The fact that Australia's Minister for Women labelled as harmful, a bill which would have restored women's sex-based rights across Australia … is absolutely disgraceful,' Ms Wong told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. 'How has she not given a second thought to the harm being done to women and girls, who have been forced to share spaces and sports with men who claim to be women. 'Labor and the Greens love to share platitudes.'

TRANSCRIPT: A woman stabbed to death in rural Victoria; Donald Trump's name removed from an impeachment exhibit at a museum in the US; Australia's Sarah Gigante keeping pace with the leaders of the Tour de France Femmes. A man is being interviewed by police after the stabbing death of a woman in regional Victoria. Police say the man they arrested was known to the woman. Officers had been called to a home in Coleraine, in regional Victoria, about 340 kilometres west of Melbourne just after 1am this morning following reports a woman had been attacked. A worker has been killed and five others remain trapped underground after a collapse at a copper mine in Chile. The collapse is understood to be the result of an earthquake that trapped the miners as they worked on the Andesita project, a new 25 kilometre tunnel complex extending from the El Teniente mine on the western slopes of the Andes Mountains. The US Geological Survey reported a magnitude 5.0 earthquake in an area of central Chile where the mine is located. But authorities are yet to determine if it was a naturally occurring earthquake or whether it was caused by mining activity. A US museum has removed Donald Trump's name from an impeachment exhibit in Washington DC. The Washington Post says the exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History now has a label that notes that only three presidents have seriously faced removal: Andrew Johnson in 1868; Bill Clinton in 1998, and Richard Nixon, who would have faced impeachment had he not resigned in 1974. Trump was impeached twice in his first term in office. New South Wales Police say they will respect a court decision to allow a pro Palestinian protest to take place on the Harbour Bridge on Sunday. The Force had previously argued that the rally would cause disruption on the bridge, an argument rejected by Supreme Court Justice Belinda Rigg who ruled those arguments were not sufficient to bar the demonstration. Acting deputy commissioner Peter McKenna says they will be working with the protest organisers to ensure it goes ahead smoothly. "Nothing changes for us in the fact that people who come in to do the right thing and have a safe protest, then we will facilitate that. We will work with them. But if people come in to commit any type of offences, anti-social behaviour or anything else that puts the public safety at risk, then we will have no hesitation to take action. So nothing has changed in that space." A handful of Labor Party members have staged a silent protest at the Victorian party's conference. They've held up images of Palestinian flags on their devices as Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles delivered a speech to the group, which centred largely around thanking Labor members for their efforts to secure the party's thumping federal election win. "This is the largest number of seats that we have ever won at a federal election. (claps) Proportionally, it is the single biggest defeat of Australia's conservative movement ever." While passed motions do not bind governments or the federal party, votes by rank-and-file members are set for this afternoon on the AUKUS defence agreement and Middle East. Labor's official platform backs Palestinian statehood but Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has not set a timeline for implementing the policy and recently declared it not imminent. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has unveiled a new economic partnership between the federal government and Indigenous organisation the Coalition of Peaks at the Garma festival in north-east Arnhem land. The PM has called the Partnership an example of the government's commitment to the Priority Reforms of the National Agreement on Closing the Gap. "We must end the stalemate that arises when native title organisations with little in the way back of us, or legal or commercial expertise, are expected to negotiate with multinational companies. This is why the first priority for our economic partnership will be to reform the funding model for prescribed body corporate. So that it delivers meaningful participation for communities and timely decision making for investors." Data released on Thursday revealed just four of 19 targets are on track to be met. Another four goals are going backwards - namely adult incarceration, children in out-of-home care, suicide rates and child development. Australia's Sarah Gigante has kept pace with the Tour de France Femmes leaders, despite France's Maeva Squiban claiming a solo victory in the seventh stage. Gigante has come home in 16th place for the second day running, 1 minute and 11 seconds behind the winner. The result means the AG Insurance-Soudal rider has slipped a place to eighth in the general classification, 1 min 14 sec behind yellow jersey wearer Kimberley Le Court Pienaar. But she says she has a game plan and is sticking to it. "I know they're going to put me under pressure on purpose. So it's hard but yeah, I know what's coming."
