with martha maccallum starts this monday night at seven. we hope that you will make as part of your evening, and make as part of your story as well. thank you, everybody, good night, we'll see you monday. ♪ ♪ >> tucker: welcome to tucker carlson tonight, north korea just lost another missile and will have a live report on what happened and what it means. also, hollywood is taking over tonight after richard dreyfuss sent us an email offering to provide a televised civics lesson on the show, he joins us in just a minute. will talk to father leo who says antipolice aptitudes in california are wrecking that state. attorney general jeff sessions went to suffolk county new york out in long island where he vowed to bring the full force of federal law enforcement down on the gang ms-13. >> ms-13 is killed,, and
5:01 pm
control. we've seen more drugs, more deaths. this is an assault on law and safety and were not going to let it happen. they enrich themselves by peddling poison in our communities, trafficking children for prostitution, inflicting horrific violence in our neighborhoods, they recruit in our hospitals and our middle schools and even our elementary schools we have proof of that. our nation is suffering from an unprecedented academic of heroin and opioid abuse, often traffic by the cartels. i have a message for the gangs that target our young people. we are targeting you. >> tucker: you might think that stopping a murderous gang is a goal that can unite people but apparently not. dozens of people protested to jeff sessions visit today attacking him for linking ms-13's rise to illegal immigration.
5:02 pm
patrick young was one of the protesters into, he's an immigration attorney a program director at the central american refugee center. thanks for coming on. the attorney general goes to long island today and says were going to crack down on ms-13 which nobody disagrees is a scourge. this is the press release you guys sent out in response. long islanders need to resist the rhetoric of criminalization coming down from washington. why is it bad to criminalize ms-13? >> you don't need to lecture me on the dangers of ms-13, 15 years ago i was offered police protection because i'm an outspoken opponent of them. the way that you go after them is to work with the police to have the police and the community work together. that equation doesn't work if you bring ice into it. when you bring ice and you just divide the community and you drive the people who are really the eyes and ears of the police underground. you turn them into antagonists, that's not something it's safe for any of us. two doors down from me a few
5:03 pm
months ago a house was tagged with ms-13. i don't know if they were looking for me or if they were going after my neighbors. we need to be able to find them and if we can only do it if the community trust the police. >> tucker: let me state this obvious there is no data to back up that claim which is universal. let me also applaud you big against ms-13. here's what i don't understand. pretending that immigration has nothing to do with the rise of the gang is false. it does. a foia suit recently brought federal numbers to light 4,000 ms-13 members arrest in this country, 92% had been here illegally, 16% had been caught coming in at least two times. if there is a direct connection between cut people coming in illegally in the rise of the skin, why not admit that? >> the people targeted by ms are largely from the same communities and what you don't want to do is don't want to blame the victim and
5:04 pm
re-victimize them. when we want immigrants to come forward and speak to police. if they are hearing from political leaders that they themselves have been suspected of being involved in ms, they're not going to come forward. >> tucker: again, we don't know that. that's a political point that you're making. >> we do know that. you don't have immigrants on your program but. >> tucker: your about the eighth person on this show to make that claim. criminology is a variety of social scientist, there's not one study that proves what you just said. it sounds like it may be right commit serves your political purpose so you don't know that. >> we work closely with the police department around ms, we had to police officers intern with us to learn about the community. we know what the best policing practices are. nassau county has ms but they also have an extremely low crime rates because they have two decades of history under democrats and republicans.
5:05 pm
>> tucker: obviously we don't know the best way to fight ms-13 or it wouldn't be growing across the country and it is. i'm just making an obvious point i'm not pretending to be a cop here, . >> i'm not pretending to be a talk as somebody who listens to the immigrant community and also talks to the police. it >> tucker: that there's many constituencies here at the immigrant community is not the only one there's also the rest of us. if 92% of the people arrested are here illegally, you can't pretend it's got nothing to do with illegal immigration. >> it's safer if we have the immigrant community listed in the struggle against ms-13. >> tucker: i'm not saying that you don't want people affected by ms-13 to come forward. i'm merely saying that these guys are here in the first place, 92% of them because we didn't enforce our immigration laws. you don't want to admit that because you disagree with our immigration laws, that doesn't help anybody if we don't tell the truth. >> i disagree with that because it's not the truth.
5:06 pm
if you go and take one characteristic of ms-13 and then ignore the fact that we have many nativeborn people in the united states involved in a particular group. we don't blame all fox news host for a sins of a few. it >> tucker: ludicrous point. i'm not blaming all immigrants. i'm merely saying we wouldn't have this problem in the first place if these people weren't here. they don't have a right to be here, they are here illegally and in this case in the case of ms-13 they're murdering people. >> the victims of ms-13 who brought this to the attention of so many people, the killings two weeks ago, for people, they were all immigrants. >> tucker: i'm not doing that, i'm not blinded by by ideology to the point where i can't admit obvious truths. the most obvious is this is an immigrant ambition based proble
5:07 pm
problem. >> it's not an immigration based problem because otherwise we wouldn't have the bloods and crips there are plenty of american-born people who didn't take -- >> tucker: you didn't take logic at school. >> i got an a. >> tucker: i don't want to debate your college transcript here. this guy claims to want to help immigrants. ms-13 praise upon immigrants. >> it does pray primarily on immigrants which is why it's important to enlist their help in the struggle against them and not to marginalize them and not to sew divisions. a >> tucker: let me ask you an obvious fact based question. the obama administration has been in power for the last eight years, trump has been for 99 days. ms-13 during that eight year period group. the obama administration didn't stigmatized illegal immigrants,
5:08 pm
they welcomed illegal immigrant immigrants. why under obama did ms-13 continue to grow? if your theory is correct. >> why under obama? you can talk to obama about tha that. i'm a local person who lives in a community who is mixed with immigrants and nonimmigrants. >> tucker: you're not tracking the logic here. it's not about obama. the point is we haven't been that stigmatizing illegal immigrants from washington for eight years. and yet during that time ms-13 has continued to grow. by your logic, the opposite would be true. >> by my logic, we need to work together in order to work against ms-13 and we don't make progress against ms-13 if communities are divided. >> tucker: i wonder and this is my final question because i feel like i'm hitting my head against a brick wall. >> don't hurt yourself. >> tucker: it is hurting me actually. when you're so committed to a particular worldview that you
5:09 pm
become impervious to facts. in >> that's what i'm seeing right here, that's what you're in love with right now. >> tucker: what you made in love with what to i'm giving you a number. >> we know the cause of gangs is not immigration because there are plenty of nonimmigrants who are in gangs. it happens to be one gang. >> tucker: i'm never going to convince you but i appreciate you coming on anyway. so what's the next step, simply talking about ms-13 won't beat them. tim cini is police commissioner for long island and he joins us tonight. thanks a lot for coming on. why has ms-13 grown so much in the last ten years? >> it's likely a variety of factors there's no question that ms-13 praise on the immigrant cy particular prey on unaccompanied children who come
5:10 pm
to this country illegally and placed in our communities and the suffolk amount he police department work in collaboration with our federal partners is dedicated to decimating this gang. >> tucker: are the feds could help you? >> absolutely. >> tucker: you're confident that the attorney general means progress. >> whenever you have the top law-enforcement official come to your community and committed to eradicating a dangerous gang such as ms-13 and ask local officials how can we help, that's a good help for your community. we had a very productive discussion today about law enforcement issues about how the federal government can further assist us in our message missif eradicating ms-13, several specific topics were discussed. it was a great meeting we had the heads of all of the local departments in the room, we had our federal partners there and of course the attorney general and his team. >> tucker: i don't know how free you are to be totally
5:11 pm
candid since you are on tv but it seems like politics is playing a pretty ugly role in all this. when you have protest by the side of the road accusing the federal government of cracking down on all immigrants when they're going after one of the most dangerous criminal gangs in the country, does that distort your ability to be able to address this as a criminal matter? >> there's no question that politics creeps into the discussion of law enforcement and i benefit from the position of being police commissioner, i don't have to deal in politics. that's a good thing for me, i just have to focus on the mission, get the job done. many of those protesters out there were people who i work with on a daily basis, we have different perspectives about certain things obviously, but these are people who we work with and the message i sent to them is this is the attorney general of the united states, he's coming to our community to ask how the federal government can assist in eradicating ms-13 from our community. we had a very productive session today with all of our law
5:12 pm
enforcement partners and i really do believe that something good is good to come out of that meeting. >> tucker: does the government of el salvador play any role in this? i think about half of the arrested ms-13 members come from that country, it started there apparently, it's controlled at least in part from el salvador. what's the government's role in that question to mike? >> this is an important piece and this is why local law enforcement officials need to be working with their federal law enforcement partners. we need to fight this battle on all fronts good dominic. were going to be working with assets throughout the world to tackle this issue and to deal with it both outside his country and inside this country and it's going to take all hands on deck, it's going to take a multifaceted approach it's going to take a lot of resources which is why today's meeting was so promising. we talked very specifically about what types of resources
5:13 pm
and a lot of folks had good suggestions and we had a good discussion. >> tucker: when 92% arrested are from a foreign country are foreign citizens, it's a foreign threat i would say. thanks for coming on. this is a fox news alert, just a short time ago, north korea testfired another ballistic missile, for more on this increasingly tense and in some ways confusing situation, we go to trace gallagher. >> this was another cayenne 17 scud, north korea's newest missile. no one knows how far it will go because there has never been a successful launch. it's the third time this month north korea has fired one, the farthest one traveled about 22 miles into the sea of japan. today's never made it all off the peninsula. minutes ago, president trump tweeted north korea disrespected the wishes of china and its
5:14 pm
highly respected president when it launched unsuccessfully a missile come out bad. the white house is continuing to consult with china which is an ally of north korea and many experts say china is the key to getting kim jong kim jong un tp provoking the west. at the pentagon is concerted north korea will build a long-range missile able to hit the u.s. coastline. at the immediate concern is that kim the younger will attack south korea or japan. secretary of state rex tiller's and told the security council that time is running out and he called the global community to g sanctions against the north and to add a stricter new sanctions against the north. tucker. >> tucker: trace gallagher, thanks a lot. up next, after our debate on tuesday with the santa clara city councilman, actor richard dreyfuss sent us an email offering to aeschylus on civics, could you refuse that offer? we couldn't.
5:15 pm
5:17 pm
5:18 pm
♪ >> tucker: last tuesday we had on santa clara county councilman david cortez he too did the mike the legality of president trump's order. >> tucker: i'd like you to answer the question, there's a precedent being sent here by a federal judge that states do not have to comply for a federal law, and cannot be punished from doing so that is a major departure where we've been for my whole lifetime. do you think the obama administration was right to withhold federal funds from states to didn't comply with the
5:19 pm
trends of your bathroom a really simple question. >> i'm telling you this is the first president of the united states that threatened to withhold in our case up to $1.7 billion from us, it's unconstitutional for him to try to wield that kind of power. the federal court agreed with us today. it >> tucker: not true. you never quite sure who is watching, in that case one person was richard dreyfuss the oscar winner from discourse of other movies i was in bed doing email and i got one from him, it can't be richard dreyfuss but it actually was pretty i want to come on and he wrote this. i would be happy to come on your show and explain this rudimentary illustration of the basic checks and balances to you and your audience. that sounded great, we are always happy to promote civic knowledge on this show, were happy to have richard dreyfuss with estimates. thanks for joining us. i know you spent time at oxford is studying this, i know you know a lot about the constitution. i don't doubt that i know you're
5:20 pm
smart. where in the constitution does it say states can do whatever they want in contravention of a federal law and the rest of us have to be quiet and pay for it anyway? >> it doesn't say that. it simply says the monies attached to things the executive might want are the province of the congress and what was said in the judge's ruling was that. the executive didn't have the power to withhold the finances because that's the province of the congress. that's all i wanted to clarify because it is as you say a very rudimentary thing and we should all know a lot more than that. i want to mention because i know i'm limited to 6 minutes bridge i want to mention one thing. the next night, you were talking about the speakers on university campuses. i am totally, incontrovertibly
5:21 pm
on your side about this. i think any intrusion into freedom of speech is an intrusion into freedom of speec speech. when one of the presidents of one of the colleges said this is a school, not the battlefield, i said, know it, it a battlefield of ideas and we must have dissog opinions on campuses and i think it's political correctness taken to a nightmarish point of view. >> tucker: i agree with you and may be because were both over 30. most people under 30 don't cede to agree with us at all and they believe in something called hate speech was to somehow band because i don't want the constitution says. i want to get back to the first point really quick. this is a legal debate and this is probably not the best form for it. let me ask you a political question. i know for certain that this kind of thing has been threatened by many presidents before because i've seen it. administrations often get states to do what they wanted to do by threatening to withhold money.
5:22 pm
this happened less than a year ago in may of 2016 when the obama administration threaten to withhold federal funds from north carolina over the famous bathroom controversy. i do remember any federal judge saying you're not allowed to do that, why? >> i have to beg off part of this discussion because i have withdrawn from partisan politic politics. i am a constitutionalist to be who believes that the constitution and the bill of rights must be central in the parties must be peripheral. what's most important for me is what you just mentioned haphazardly, we are over 30. civics has not been taught in the american public school system since 1970. that means everyone in congress never studied the constitution and the bill of rights as you and i might have. that is a critical flaw because it's why we were admired and respected for so long, it gives
5:23 pm
us our national identity, it tells the world who we are and why we are who we are, and without a frame that gives us values that stand by the bill of rights, were just floating in the air. our sectors of society are not connected, that's why teaching civics and i'm so glad you said that. what's really important is that the assumptions of the left and the right are always cute wrong. we have defined areas of agreement and that we share. we do share the notion that education accomplishes certain things. one, it turns students into citizens. two it teaches students how to run the country before it's their turn to run the country. three, it teaches the values of this nation.
5:24 pm
people come from all over the world or are born into this nation without the values that we have here. that's why they came here, to get them. what are they? you can put them an opportunity, rise by merit, mobility, and freedom. that's what we sell. if you don't want that, you've chosen the wrong place. you don't get a pass by being born here, you have to learn it. even the ten commandments are not known at birth. you must learn them. we must learn our values and if we don't, we are fatally, fatally wounding ourselves. we will not have any way to really combat the ideas behind isis because we won't know our own. and we have to. >> tucker: typically i interrupt our guest and i expected to debate you but i agree with every single word of that and i just want to say
5:25 pm
thank you very much for emailing me late night and for coming on to say that because i think it's important. >> can i give you one idea? this is for everybody. everyone knows the preamble to the constitution or should, and the preamble is in fact the mandate of the -- of america. i say if every parent and teacher and school superintendent and public political commentator signed the preamble as a gesture of support for the demand to bring civics back to the grades below high school graduation, i'll call a civic strike. and we will get the attention of all the people who deserve to pay attention. >> tucker: if you do that, i hope you come onto to tell us. >> people can go to my website which is the richard dreyfuss
5:26 pm
edition.org. ask for coming out tonight. >> at long last florida congresswoman dorian brown is being put on trial facing a massive corruption involving a bogus charity group. she rinsed almost a billion dollars, 800,000, called one door for education. according to prosecutors, the beneficiaries were not needy students but congressman brown herself. she was accused of skimming off the mass majority of $800,000 for her own use and then going out on preposterous luxuries. a private box at a washington redskins football game, shopping sprees in beverly hills, a golf tournament in her honor, even a party that featured a $750 birthday cake and a decadence cocktail she called queen karine. it was all a good deal for her,
5:27 pm
if convicted, then democrat misses a maximum of 350 years in prison prison. i do scientific studies as breastfeeding should be considered natural because doing so would encourage gender roles. bobbio says his adopted state of california has become a mess thanks to liberal policies, he'll be here to tell us how that happened.

5:30 pm
>> tucker: today marks president trump's 99th day in office, tomorrow will be the end of his first 100 days, what is he up to show for its? he spoke with martha maccallum earlier and he defended his early presidential record, take a look. >> martha: you'll see everywhere that there was no major legislation passed in the first 100 days. >> president trump: that's
5:31 pm
wrong. we had 28 bills. >> martha: understood. >> president trump: i was with a reporter the other day who said you didn't pass anything, no we passed 28 bills. >> martha: you are right and we have looked at the list. -- health care, tax reform. >> tucker: what did we learn about the president from that interview? ed henry joins us now. >> the start of this presidency can be summed up by one thing the president uttered today. he said 100 days is a totally false standard but nobody has been better at it than me. what is more champion than that? at the sheer leadership and brawn of the present declaring most of the media is against him, the democrats are comically against everything he opposes and are not being called out for it. to be fair, his fellow republicans can't seem to get their act together on health care and basically any other legislation. they have passed bills but they haven't gotten to his desk to signed into law. the president has ushered out what he calls the weak foreign policy of barack obama that said
5:32 pm
don't cross that redline and said never mind. gone is the you didn't build that approach to the economy, this president has wiped out a flurry of regulations and has gotten his hands dirty on carrier and a ford and general motors. he has relied far too much on the early days on executive action just like barack obama and the republicans in the days ahead, he's going to have to prove he can govern. >> tucker: what are the measures? all this stuff coming at people watching television and reading newspapers and magazines, how do you keep the score? >> there are several keys, it's good to help determine how his presidency turns out. smarter people than me say there are seasonal odysseys to that, the markets are bullish on this president and so is every measure of consumer and corporate confidence. those numbers are trending good but what he really needs is tax reform. he has supporters wondering where's that tax cut he promised, that's big in the days ahead. national security, he's taken a
5:33 pm
much more aggressive posture on syria, north korea, the mother of all bombs against isis. he's talking tough but he has to be careful about intervention because that america first platform and finally i mentioned executive action. one thing that backfired on barack obama, he covered by executive fiat and this president comes to power and is ripping apart much of the obama agenda. the way to codify this agenda is to work together with congress and he has an advantage you would think because you have republicans running the house and descendants. if they don't get together in the days ahead, they're going to be in for a rough 2015. >> tucker: it could be an ephemeral legacy when it's written that way. the new study in the journal pediatrics describes it as unethical to call breastfeeding natural because doing so might undermine feminism. the study it says coupling nature with motherhood can inadvertently support biologically deterministic arguments about the roles of men and women in the family.
5:34 pm
publisher of catalina magazine, she joins us now. this is kind of a baffling stor story, i would think it would be off-limits for for politics. why it would be controversial to call breastfeeding natural? >> breastfeeding doesn't come naturally it's not exactly easy, there are lactation specialists out there that the whole industry out there. breastfeeding isn't exactly natural, it doesn't come naturally to women. what they are saying is i'm so happy there's a study out there and finally letting women not have this guilt trip that it's okay to handle the formula over to dad, to the men, it's a natural for a man to feed a bab baby. they're saying only a woman able to feed a child is inappropriate. it's unethical and inappropriate and i'm so glad that women are left off the hook. >> tucker: is not unethical or inappropriate, whatever those words mean. it's the opinion of some
5:35 pm
physicians at breast milk is superior to formula and other people disagree, it's a debate. that has raged for quite some time. what you seem to be saying is it's bad to because it suggests that women have a different role in motherhood than men do, they do because women are the only people biologically capable of bearing children, is that now controversial observation? >> the study is saying that women are not the only ones who could feed the children. that's what they're trying to say. it is natural for others to be able to feed the children. the whole burden is not on the mother, that's what they're trying to say. true. i don't think women are stupid. >> i interviewed a pediatrician that had a child is starving for two weeks, she was not able to lactate, she was not able to produce breastmilk for two weeks, the baby had lost weight and she refused to give that
5:36 pm
baby formula for fear that her baby was not going to get the perfect breastmilk and would have to turn to formula. >> tucker: that's a totally fair point and that's a shame when people feel like there is no alternative, perhaps there are some. that's not what really going on here. this is gender politics intruding on the personal decisions that the parents make. it's also blurring the lines, it's suggesting that men can breast-feed which i don't think they can. >> it's suggesting -- -- >> tucker: can they? >> i don't know. >> tucker: i have four children. >> i don't know your secrets, breast milk is not the only way to go, there are other ways. >> tucker: you're dodging what i'm saying. strictly speaking i don't disagree with you. but the debate is whether
5:37 pm
breastmilk is better or worse than a formula. that is a scientific base that nutritionists and physicians can have. this is feminist group saying how dare you suggest that it's better for women to feed babies because that somehow ties them biologically to the act of procreation. my only point is feminist as usual are helping to obscure biological realities because they don't like them. that's an attack on science and i'm against that. >> it's a study that's just saying it's inappropriate to say breastmilk is the only natural way to feed a child. a man can naturally feed a child in other ways. >> tucker: a man can naturally feed a child. >> he can naturally give it formula it's natural. loving is natural. >> tucker: can you just take three steps back. >> no. >> tucker: and acknowledge there's something pretty awful about inserting gender politics into something as beautiful and
5:38 pm
intimate as the first dative of the child life? >> breastfeeding is not beautiful, breastfeeding because so many headaches and it can be so horrible as a pediatrician told me it doesn't come naturally for so many women. this study i think is wonderful because women can finally step back and say wow, it's okay to hand the bottle and the baby over to dad or my girlfriend. >> tucker: half of that sentence is correct of course, it is actually okay to do that. final question for you because this is giving me a little bit of a headache. the whole subject is so crazy. it's not natural to breast-feed, how did the species get to where it is now? why don't we die out several millennia ago? >> i think we found other ways like formula to feed the babies. >> tucker: during the medieval period, where did you get the access? >> i'm not quite sure, the
5:39 pm
breastfeeding phenomena has been going on for the last ten years, but for that our mothers weren't all exactly into breastfeeding you had the revolution of the 70s, women did not breast-feed like they do nowadays. breastfeeding has not always been the answer. >> tucker: i'm glad my kids are old enough to weigh into this stuff, thanks for joining us tonight. up next, the model and actor fabio says california has become an un-livable mess because people support criminals more than the police. he joins us a minute plus the ceo of united airlines says as united mishandled the passage or because they forgot they were transporting human beings. it might not be the worst story of the day, will have a debate over what is in top of that, stay tuned. la quinta presents "how to win at business." step one: point decisively with the arm of your glasses. abracadabra. the stage is yours. step two: choose la quinta.

5:43 pm
>> tucker: time for news abuse, to make talking heads regularly complain about how dumb the american population is, untrue. but if it were the case you could think the media for it, at least some of the spread of dumbness, consider the host of cnn's united states of america, defended the cancellation of an coulters speech at uc berkeley and dropped this remarkable statement. "if you're free speech leads to hate speech, that universities have the right to protect people on campus but that's not about free speech, that's about safety." bell is completely wrong, supreme court precedents are very clear on the scope of free speech, there is no hate speech exemption to free speech, sorry, kids, there isn't and it never has existed.
5:44 pm
in snyder versus phelps to the court made it clear that public speech can never be punished simply for being offensive. in many other cases, the court has ruled that government entities cannot treat speakers differently at big simply because of their viewpoints. so if berkeley is willing to host left-wing speakers without any problems that must allow conservative speakers as well regardless of what threats are made by violent agitators against those speakers. this is completely unambiguous, it is not a matter of opinion, it is settled law. it is precedent set by the supreme court again and again. instead of teaching these facts, outlets like cnn are foisting a false story line on the public and endangering ironically the very rights they owe their existence to and they ought to stop. for decades california has been the promised land for europeans hoping to make it big in many have.

5:46 pm
it costs a million dollars to keep these people in jail. the only problem, he lied to people. he sold people on lies, he told people this criminal got arrested for a bag of marijuana, no big deal. if there is much more to the story. if you check prop 57, the majority of criminals, they are sex offenders, child molesters, human trafficking, with minors, assault with a deadly weapon. the crème de la creme. he is releasing all these people back in society. today, i'm telling you it's an epidemic. everybody is getting burglarized, robbed, everywhere. >> tucker: were to a victim recently? >> one of the many people, a lot of my friends, about 40 people got burglarized, robbed, broke into their car it's an epidemic.

now the police is getting people, they've been arresting 13 times. i'm telling you all this burglary going around los angeles, these people make so much money, they can bail out neck states the next day they can be back in business. the police are demoralized, governor brown put the police in a really, really bad spots. number one because he's the boss and he turned his back on them. even the das, they brought a lawsuit against prop 57. i have a quote from jerry brown. he said it's perplexing why the das would deny the people of california the right to vote on this important public safety measure. >> tucker: letting criminals out of prison.

5:56 pm
they get a free tuition from a ivy league education. apparently that's not a enough. and the protesters say if they get really hungry, they are still going to eat. this isn't even a hunger strike. this is the most hilarious and pathetic thing i've ever seen. they must be the most entitled snowflakes in america. >> tucker: it is a not hungry strike. at least bobby sands took it seriously, whatever you think of the ira. >> they just don't want to be uncomfortable while doing their protests. >> tucker: they are saying this out loud? >> yeah. this is all just about feeling self-important. it should be an honor and privilege to be a grad student at a place like yale. not a permanent career choice that requires unionization. there are some deep irony watching yale deal with the situation. these ivy league schools love pumping out social justice warriors and now yale is paying for it. >> tucker: on unbelievable.

5:58 pm
trendy positions to make sure they can fit in on campus? someone decided to test that question. campus reform, there's a new video and if it's any indication -- it's an awful lot of the latter. they asked at george mason university, students had really hated what trump had done but they were being told about president obama's first 100 day days. not trump's watch this. >> trump recently went on what was called an apology tour to countries like egypt and saudi arabia. saying there is a new sheriff in town. at this stuff is not going to fly. >> him apologizing stuff that you would like to see him stop doing? >> for sure. i really think he overstepped his bounds. >> i think he is trying to put band-aids on at this point and i think it's a bad thing for him. >> the people he is apologizing
