FOX News blowhard Tucker Carlson triggered a firestorm — again — with outrageous remarks over the Buffalo shooting massacre, leaving friends worried he’s headed for a career catastrophe. “He may be acting cool as a cucumber but behind the scenes all the drama is starting to get to him,” tattles an insider. “He’s a nervous wreck and could be headed for a breakdown, which many believe would serve him right!” The 53-year-old TV pundit has been accused of pushing the white supremacist “Great Replacement theory” — that America’s white majority is deliberately being replaced by liberals who are encouraging more people of color to immigrate to the U.S. That unfounded claim was supported in a manifesto written by the 18-year-old white male accused of killing ten people and wounding three…
