Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” aired a conspiracy theory suggesting Taylor Swift is a Pentagon psy-op asset using her fan base to support President Joe Biden.
Watters admits it’s speculation, linking Swift’s success to alleged Pentagon involvement.
He misattributed a clip to a Pentagon employee and tied it to a former Trump official. (Trending: Anthony Fauci Questioned About Evidence Behind COVID Restrictions)

“So is Swift a front for a covert political agenda?” Watters asked.
“‘Primetime’ obviously has no evidence — if we did, we’d share it. But we’re curious.”
“I like her music. She’s all right, but I mean, have you ever wondered how or why she blew up like this?” Watters said. “Well, around four years ago, the Pentagon psychological operations unit floated turning Taylor Swift into an asset during a NATO meeting. What kind of asset? A psy-op of combating online misinformation.”
Watters then questioned whether she was “a front for a covert political agenda.”
“Because when she posted a link to the Vote.org, hundreds of thousands of young Taylor Swift fans all of a sudden registered to vote,” he said. “I wonder who got to her from the White House, or from wherever.”
Despite refutations from Defense Department and Vote.org, the theory gained airtime due to Watters’ “just asking questions” approach, similar to Tucker Carlson’s, catering to an audience hungry for sensational claims.
