11:00 pm
thank you to all of you and your families and loved ones that gave their lives for our liberty and freedom. now, barbecue and drink beer. have a great weekend. i will see you t tucker carlson is next. >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." british authorities are continuing to investigate the suicide bombing in manchester on monday, the one that killed almost two dozen people. nothing they have found so far will surprise you. seven people have been arrested for possible involvement in that plot. police at our warning that bombers before had simply been the mule for a bundle by someone else on that person remains at large and could strike again. that is one concern but there are other facts in the case that ought to get policymakers thinking deeply about how and why this happened. this will all seem similar to you if you watch any of these before. the bomber was born in britain, not so do you far-off land but
11:01 pm
he grew to embrace islamic radicalism and declared war on the country that raised him and killed his neighbors and effect. there are many more like him. a new report released by the british government concludes there are about 3500 people being watched as potential terrorists. not a big country. after leaving to fight for isis, the very group that took response body for the manchester bombing. maybe there are lessons here, pattern say that lawmakers need to consider as they respond or we can go with the traditional choice, the one favored by our leaders which is to add british flags to our facebook profiles, pretend that terrorism somehow brings us together rather than drives us apart and dismisses anyone who asks real questions as a bigot and a nativist so we can maintain the illusion that terror bombings or just an unavoidable fact of life in the city. which is the better option? joining us now to help decide, nigel faraj, former leader of u.k. independence party, and mark stein the columnist and sometimes guest host for rush limbaugh.
11:02 pm
it's great to see you both. just a factual question first. there are brits who the authorities know have gone to fight for isis and they are walking free on your island. how can that be? >> i simply can't believe it. for the last few years, i've said that either we take away the passports of people we suspect are being linked to isis to stop them going or perhaps better still, when they go to syria on their attempt to return, we take the passports away and stop them coming back in. the remarkable thing is that we know of 400 that have been in syria that have returned, but we suspect the number may be a thousand or more. and that we've only taken action against 40. i'm frankly sick to death of seeing prime ministers and leaders standing up after attacks saying we are awful sorry, when nothing is being
11:03 pm
done to counter the bad guys. >> tucker: mark stein, if you're running a country and you to the people in your country have gone to fight with the most grotesque terror group ever created and you do nothing about it, you're really not trying to protect your population, are you? >> no. i'm old-fashioned enough to believe in treason. you described this killer as british. these 850 people i think who are known to have gone off to fight in syria and iraq, nigel has said it better than i do but for purposes of comparison, at the height of the iras campaign, estimated that there were no more than 100 active operatives. that involves just basically going 20 miles down the road. these guys traveled halfway around the planet to fight for the queens enemies. a definition of treason. i don't know why they're walking around in the street. were told that it would be very expensive to throw away hundred 50 people into prison.
11:04 pm
when germany estimates that for every one of these suspects there tracking, they need 60 pee tracking that guy. it was a lot cheaper to toss them into prison for going off and fighting your enemies abroad than it is to have 60 people monitoring them and then doing nothing until 48 hours after they've blown up a bunch of people. >> tucker: you've got to wonder nigel if the government can't even punish people who were at war with it and with its population, than what is the point of having a government? is that the most basic responsibility of the government? >> the primary aim of any government should be to protect its citizens and the integrity of the nation. i'm afraid this country is so hidebound by political correctness that we have allowed the mass sexual rate and abuse of thousands of underage girls and northern cities and we've done nothing about it, allowed
11:05 pm
people to go and be deeply radicalized, even brutalized in syria and done nothing about it. all because were scared of being thought perhaps if we target one particular community, those of islamic faith, we might be thought to be racist. what is interesting is that our prime minister, theresa may, was of course for six years the home secretary. she was the person in charge of all of this and frankly, all i can say is she failed dismally in any attempts to stop radicalization from within or to stop bad people from outside coming into our country. manchester was a shock. it was a new low. attacking young girls at a concert in, and are upset, people are angry, and i think we now, even us are slow to anger brits, now need some action from our government. >> tucker: you agree with that? to think it's a matter of leaders who would literally rather see children die than be?
11:06 pm
>> i was limping to the deputy e if i'm wrong, she is saying we have to have the college to call this what it is. and then she said its extremism. extremism is a weaselly and invasive term. and then she said we have to accept that muslim people are no more likely to commit these acts than white people are. and that in fact is not the case. not after brussels, not after nice, not after the berlin christmas market, not after the murder of the french priest last year. there is a particular problem, and as disgusting as what happened on monday night is -- wasn't -- equally concerning is the reaction of people like the deputy mayor and the prime minister and the chief constable of greater manchester who are basically asking the
11:07 pm
citizens of the united kingdom to live with the official lie when nothing can be said that is actually approximates to the reality of the situation here. that's soviet and totalitarian. they basically said this is an official lie. you know it's absurd, you know it doesn't match what you see, but this is it and you have to accept it. it's wicked to do that. >> tucker: you're required to believe it. they want to control your mind, not just your behavior. nigel, when you watch the american response, even a cultural response to an event like what happened in your country on monday, are you surprised by how few of the lessons americans are learning from this? >> i'm not sure actually. there is optimism here. yesterday, who of course is dealing with counterterrorism and president trump in the white house and i think there is a new mood in the american government, a desire to cast aside political correctness, a
11:08 pm
genuine desire to stop radicalization from happening i in. had hillary one, she couldn't even bring herself to use the phrase islamic terrorism. i think with trump, you have got somebody who has the moral courage to deal with this and can i say, i thought his speech in riyadh to 50 of the world's biggest muslim leaders, when he said to them "drive out from your own places of worship those that spread extremism," i think america is at a much better place than we are here. though i have to say, you mentioned already there are 3,500 terror suspects living united kingdom. belgian with a population of 12 million, there are 18,000 suspected terrorists. there are some countries even worse than us. >> tucker: i'm feeling better about america already. nigel and mark, thank you very much for that. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: a small story out of u.k. this morning, but
11:09 pm
not terror related but one that says a lot. a new survey found that british university students were so overwhelmed by student loan debt that a third of them would consider prostitution in order to pay off their loans. before you judge that, consider that the situation here in the u.s. may be no better. student loan debt is higher here, more than 1 million college kids have enrolled in one prostitution web site, just one, and maybe others hoping to sell themselves for cash. these are normal kids working to get an education. people you might know, might live on your street, were willing to become to pay the bills. visit the america you are a member? is a rich country? for some, it's richer than ever, take a trip outside of the city sometime. like the recovery never happen because in a lot of places, it didn't happen. more than half of the people here in the u.s. can't come up with 400 bucks on a days notice. that's a pair of tires for your truck, not even all four. yet it still too expensive perhaps, not even likely for your neighbors.
11:10 pm
since 1990, the percentage of working is emergence classified as quote disabled has doubled. a lot of them, the disability they face is a total lack of jobs near where they live. none of these people shows up in the fake unemployment numbers. washington shamelessly peddles to the rest of us. it's not surprising that heroin use has exploded in rural american. drug abuse has killed 50,000 people year in this country. in a lot of ways, things are bad and parts of america, that's why so many voters roll the dice on donald trump in the last election. it's also why it is vital to the people in charge addressed the underlying problems that put them there in the first place. if they're not addressing those problems, in case you haven't notice. latest comes from a new blow to a back poll released by politico. as of this morning, 60% of democrats say that trump should be impeached and removed from office. nearly half of democrats, this is amazing, believe that congress is top priority ought to be investigating the ministrations ties to russia.
11:11 pm
not fixing health care or unemployment, the opioid crisis are finding out why college kids are selling their bodies to pay student loans, but the russia conspiracy. that's the most important thing to half of all democrats. as we've noted times, this is crazy. worse than that, is negligent. the real story is not donald trump, whatever you think of him, it's the real people who voted for him. they voted for him for a reason in some cases even though they didn't really care to vote for him. a lot of them are actually democrats abandoned by their party. democrats could probably win a lot of these people back at home and they cared about their lives. but instead, the party has been treated further into the cul-de-sac of identity politics. open borders, transgender bathrooms, and a number of esoteric and poorly thought out ideas pushed by its component interest groups. i know russia, the grandest conspiracy of all, the one that explains everything in the universe very much including the failures of the democratic party. trump didn't win, pugin installed him. it's a lie, but it feels good.
11:12 pm
what a relief from sulfur flexion then. so are public and stick hit after hit until one day they're hopelessly addicted to this lif life. they're looking for their fix on cnn. it's amusing in its appointment, it's sad, but in the meantime, the middle class is still dying. former senior advisor to the dnc, he ran the terms war room and he joins us tonight. half of all democrats believe investigating the ties between trump and russia is the single most important agenda item for the congress to pursue in face of every thing that's happening this country. that tells you everything. >> i think what it tells you is a very serious issue that congress needs to take serious and the white house and start taking it seriously which assuming that we haven't been seeing from them. in fact, what was seen as they have spent their capital trying to undermine the special counsel, throwing out these arcane rules from the department of justice trying to limit the scope of what they can investigate so they can't investigate jared kushner.
11:13 pm
i think this is a reaction to the fact that people in washington don't seem to be taking this seriously, certainly not from this white house. what i don't know what washington you're living in. >> how about the washington where paul ryan and kevin mccarthy, the leader of the party joked about the act that he believed donald trump and another member of congress being paid by the russians. >> tucker: he might be part of the conspiracy two. we just had a political revolution in november, something none of us expected. list all the democrats. it happen for a reason, a reason that parties refused to pay attention to. they exist to respond to anxieties and hopes and the needs of their constituents and rather than doing that and thinking how the hill up with this happen, what did we do wrong, went right to russia. meanwhile the middle-class is still dying. >> we can walk into their any time. >> tucker: was the evidence? stick others a vigorous opposition to the republic and
11:14 pm
health which is they said 23 million fewer people are going to have health care. what are you joking? >> you know thing that matters to people? >> tucker: i think it does matter. >> 850% increase. >> tucker: you're kind of missing the point, democrats just lost last election on obamacare. obamacare was in place, the same program all of us live under right now was in place on election day and it failed the middle class. that's why michigan and a bunch of other unexpected states went for trump rather than hilary. my only point is where is the reflection here? wears a concern about actual issues, the unemployment number numbers? carter pages russia ties bring a single job to a single american? >> what is he campaigning on right now? is he campaigning on russia? what he's talking about is health care.
11:15 pm
he's talking about fixing obamacare and is talking about campaigning. >> tucker: you're making my point for me. >> you can walk and chew gum at the same time. we are focusing and make sure that a our republic is secured. >> tucker: you're selling to your voters and you know that. you're telling them all their problems can be explained by vladimir putin's intervention. it sat and they believe you because i trust you but you're lying to them. >> were going out there and campaigning every day on health care. that's where candidates are going out there and talking to people about. they're spending a lot of the time focusing on. if you turn on the tv. >> tucker: i host a cable show in the city and i can promise you that every person i talked to on the left is totally absorbed in the russia story and this poll on which this whole segment is predicated proves that it's true. >> russia is an extraordinarily important issue because there is a potential active obstruction of justice peace that's going on right now. it's very, very important. however, we are talking in a
11:16 pm
very focused way on health care, which is all the evidence you needed. to going to georgia. >> tucker: i'm agreeing with you that when democrats address middle-class economics, they have a shot and by the way, the country deserves someone to focus on that. bernie sanders almost got your nomination and he did not by talking about russia or these weird social issues that really serve nobody except your stupid little interest groups. he talked about bread-and-butter things like student loans. these are real things. and you guys have a bed and that completely. >> if you go onto the floor of the house of representatives, what are they talking about? they're talking about health care, they're talking about jobs. the first thing that senate democrats did, what did they do? they sent an infrastructure job bill to the white house. where has that been? >> tucker: so really they're going to impeach trump because he is not responding to the opioid crisis or unemployment or the rise in health care costs. no, they're trying to impeach him because they think he is
11:17 pm
vladimir putin's very net. >> the democratic leadership is not talking about this. it's talking about an awful health care bill that is a 23 million people. >> tucker: maybe would be good for the democratic party to leave weather then letting its interest groups set the agenda and it's spun up net roots who watch the cable show racked on the sun that, but to articulate what the messages. the middle-class news representation and they're ignoring it. >> if you want to know what we are talking about on a daily basis, go to your candidates were talking about health care, or talking creation. >> tucker: one guy in montana. >> and georgia and other candidates that are going around. >> tucker: it's great to see you, thanks. president trump is trying to cope with the special prosecutor and the white house staff that has sprung a million weeks. too small in number, more than a million. is it time to bring back one of his political allies from the campaign, corey lewandowski doing this in a minute, transformer campaign manager. is he going back to the white house? published reports say aspirate
11:18 pm
11:21 pm
i need the phone that's where i happen to be... to be the one that rings. i need not to be missed phone calls... to not be missed. i need seamless handoff... canyon software. from reception, to landline, to mobile. i need one number... not two. i'm always moving forward... because i can't afford to get stuck in the past. comcast business. built for business. >> tucker: president trump may be going back to his political roots in january 2015 when his campaign was still such a joke to pretty much everybody. corey lewandowski agreed to be his campaign manager. he didn't get trump to the finish line, he got them to the nomination though. now rumors are swirling that he
11:22 pm
wants to bring him back to the white house as part of a special crisis management team. are the rumors true? corey lewandowski joins us tonight to confirm or deny. cory, are you going back to the white house? >> tucker, the only time i go to the white house is as a guest. you know that. just as a visitor. i like to bring my family sometimes, that's about it. >> tucker: you wouldn't consider going back to work as a crisis manager in this investigation proceeds? >> let me be very clear, and i think everyone knows this, my loyalty is to the president and to make sure that his agenda which he ran on witches jobs, homeland security, building a wall, making sure people are back to work, cutting taxes of the american middle class is moving forward. and if that means i can help the president by doing that, of course, it would be a privilege. let me be clear, of what a great life. i love doing what i'm doing. if i can help the president from the outside, i can be very, very helpful from the outside may be much more so than even on the inside. >> tucker: if he went inside, what would you do? what is crisis management meaning of situation like this?
11:23 pm
>> honestly i don't know when to be clear, i haven't had any conversations about this what's amazing is, there's one media outlet which would like to qualify as fake news, it's called politico, they read a story and suddenly everyone picks up on it and says while matt, it's factual. that was on an airplane coming back from miami on friday, the story breaks and all of a sudden i get a bunch of phone calls and says i heard you have a job at the white house. nobody told me or anyone else i had been associated with. don't believe everything you read in the fakeness. >> tucker: i would never defend politico. it's a ridiculous web site but a lot of people in the white house talk to politico. that is real. they're getting a lot of calls from staff, both career people and appointees from within the building. let's kind of the larger question, while these leaks, have never seen as many leaks in the administration since i've been here. >> is very clear to me and what was seen as we saw a report and i don't know if it's actually accurate enough, but we saw there's three staffers who have been identified by news outlets who have leaked
11:24 pm
classified information. if that has happened, those people should be held at the highest standards of the law accountable which is a felony. there are additional leaks that are taking place, i would recommend that the staff in the white house digging as hard as i can to find out who those leaks are and immediately remove those people not just from the white house but from any government agency that they are working for and move them out as quickly as possible. there is a deep state that once the seed the president not accomplish his agenda. they did not support him when he ran, they do not support him as a present and they should not be working in a administration. >> tucker: and their working day and night to undermine the president, so two and half hours ago, "the new york times" put a story on its web site saying that intelligence servicp conversations between russian intelligence officials talking about how to influence the trump campaign. just yesterday and the peace the trump campaign cooperated with us or became agents of russia, but this is clearly an attempt by career and tell officers to
11:25 pm
hurt the white house. that's a big deal. that doesn't happen a lot and normally ministrations so what is being done to stop this? this is will paralyze the in administration if it goes on. because that's right. i don't think the intelligence community, they have >> that's right. traditionally been nonpartisan but let me be clear. we see time and time and time again now that the president is having private conversations that very few people have access to and in many cases are classified. had a story today that classified information was leaked again by a presidents conversation with another world leader. that is being done from the intelligence community solely to discredit this president. they don't want to see him be successful. they are doing so not just to the detriment of the president but at the detriment of the entire country. these people need to be held accountable, need to find out who they are, be removed immediately and if they have committed a crime, they need to be prosecuted that crime. >> tucker: there is going to be or already is in fact a criminal investigation underway, and we are not exact leisure huda targets are but presumably everyone who works over there.
11:26 pm
>> what's going to happen is that people conducting that investigation start leaking with a fine during the course of it? >> you completely erode the public trust. no matter what takes place, there are things that should be brought up to the public in the interest of full disclosure and things that should be done behind things to make sure that they aren't a link to it and what we've seen in this administration unlike in the obama administration, the bush n administration beforehand, if there's a leak within the organization, i think what has to be done is they have about 4,000 presidential appointments. the staff needs to work its due diligence as quickly as possible to make sure his appointees are being put in place. we have seen time and time again of the holdovers. without the department of education just yesterday, a holdover quit as opposed to testifying before the committee. we saw that sally yates refused to implement a direct order of the president and was removed from her job. these people who served under the obama administration doing everything they can to destroy this president. they need to be removed and the need to be brought in who are
11:27 pm
loyal to the president and loyal to the country. >> tucker: like yesterday. we don't have time to ask what hasn't been done, but it is the question that hangs in the air. corey lewandowski, thanks a lot for joining us tonight. >> thank you. >> tucker: oscar lopez rivera was a leader and a terror group that committed hundreds of bombings and killed five in new york. he was in prison for a long time, now he's out. obama got him out. now new york city is honoring him as a great man. up next, we'll talk to a city councilman who compares him to nelson mandela. find out

endorsed by aarp. don't wait. call now. >> tucker: new york was holding puerto rico day upcoming two weeks, and this will make national news. organizers have announced they're going to honor a man called oscar lopez rivera during the parade. who is he? a terrorist, literally. lopez was a leader of the puerto rican nonmilitary group that was committing all kinds of attacks throughout the united states in the 70s and 80s and attempt to make puerto rico communist. they murdered five people in new york during a series of bombings. lopez rivera would still be imprisoned for his many crimes, but president obama commuted his sentence just before leaving office with very little fanfare as to the press didn't really bother to cover it and he went free. jermaine williams is on the city council here in new york city and he wrote a letter praising lopez rivera claiming solidarity with him.
11:32 pm
i'm not even sure what to say about this. you represent new york city, a city you think would be sensitive to terror. and yet you're endorsing an admitted terrorist. there is no debate about what the guy did. he admitted it. so why would you do that? >> one, i'm going to be marching in the puerto rican data celebrate the heritage and the culture there. two, mr. lopez hasn't said that he committed any violent crime and has been associated with violent crimes. and lastly, a lot of these things depend on the vantage point that were looking at. so nelson mandela was a terrorist until 2008, five years before his death. by the united states government. so a lot of times, people are conflating the use of violence as they say as the separation, but what they're trying to say. as to what i don't even know. you didn't even do your research. what do you mean he didn't admit it? he did admit it. he was convicted. i actually read contemporary
11:33 pm
news reports today. in 1981, he went on trial pretty was convicted of armed robbery and bomb making and a bunch of other things. he admitted that he did it. then president clinton tried to offer him clemency if only he would renounce violence wouldn't. there's no debate that the guy committed acts of violence but he admitted to armed robbery. >> because he didn't recognize the united states, they didn't put up a defense. the united states just went ahead and did their own case. but he has been renounced. >> tucker: he admitted that he committed for armed robbery. >> that aside, we should get to the real point. many people conflate saying i don't believe in the tools of the cause when they really just don't believe in the cause to be going west. so i submit to you, what strategy should be used to fight for one's freedom, justice, and equity? >> tucker: how about the system they use in puerto rico where they have referenda where they vote on whether they want to be an independent country or a state or a terrorist country, which they regularly do? they do that all the time.
11:34 pm
you always say don't follow this in any detail. it is also a terrorist. >> again, the nelson mandela was viewed as a terrorist until 2008. >> tucker: are you really comparing him to nelson mandela? viggo the most dangerous man in america by the fbi. he was shot and killed violently. what we're saying, we did is very often. >> tucker: did martin luther king commit armed robbery? what are you saying? >> what we're saying is we conflate a lot of issues. >> tucker: your conflating issue spread i'm not even attacking the cause. i'm merely saying armed robbery and making bombs are not legitimate forms of political expression. >> the united states has supported people who have done violent acts in the course of getting their freedom across the world. what we tend to do is -- >> tucker: i'm not for that. are you for that? >> what i'm saying is we should be consistent.
11:35 pm
the st. patrick's day celebrated the ira by having them in their parade, the ny pd didn't participate because there was a lot of irish and the nypd pretty i'm against that too. you can say the same thing about timothy mcveigh. he thought he was committing an act of war against the united states but how would you have felt if present bush had committed his sentence and he was honored in a parade? >> you're comparing different things. we have a colony that has no representation and can't vote for president, can't vote in congress and either they want statehood or they want independence. >> tucker: i'm trying to be patient. you don't know anything about this. they get to vote on whether they want. that are you aware that they get to vote popular vote on whether they want to be their own country, and they don't. i think they should, by the way, they don't because i get so much in aid from the united states pretty >> people who actually do and have been fighting it for some time. the question is, what do we do when people are fighting for
11:36 pm
their freedom and justice? so often -- >> tucker: so it's okay to commit armed robbery. >> i don't condone it. i'm what i'm saying is even when we do nonviolent resistance, whether it's sitting down for the pledge of allegiance, sibley people saying black lives matter, people get explored with the same link which pretty >> tucker: so you're a demagogue violence. making excuses for development shape to enact behavior and you should be ashamed of yourself. >> they prefer one strategy over another when they don't refer any strategy at all. >> tucker: it's pretty simple and you're in a position of responsibility. people voted for you, they look to you. you should say unequivocally nobody. you're supporting a guy who admitted to armed robbery. >> people who became the taliban, this country has supported saddam hussein. we are saying one thing for a group of people and another for another. >> tucker: of people like you who will be responsible for the them. >> people like you actually try
11:37 pm
to conflate issues, but i'm saying to you, whatever it is that is brought up when it comes to strategies for freedom and justice, the people who are privileged usually trying to dictate what should be done and what we should celebrate. >> tucker: up all of us of all colors and all incomes can agree that armed robbery is not legitimate. >> tell me -- >> tucker: i'm out of time, councilman. insane. colleges across america claim to be becoming safer and savor for dire consequences with anyone for a controversial idea. after the break, we'll talk to adam corolla, the most popular podcast host in the world and the great dennis prager about their upcoming documentary on campus faith. melania end of ivanka's clothing choices. our panel will decide if that's merely silly or the silly story of the ♪ ♪ ♪

when you show up at these college campuses or you deal with college students, do they understand and that things are very different now from the way they were when you were in college? today sort of know that they are in the middle of this moment? or did they think it was always this way? >> i wasn't in college, but thank you. i was on the road picking up garbage. >> tucker: is my favorite thing about you. i love that. >> alighted was a gourd full of my own tears. they remind me that kids from the twilight zone which anyone into the cornfield who disagrees with them and were so scared to be in a cornfield by these snotty nosed brats that we just follow suit. we are making this movie and it's no safe spaces.com. we're making this movie, but the truth is, it's impossible to parody what actually takes place. harvard and, i want all your viewers to look this up because what i'm about to say will sound
11:45 pm
like we made it up or certainly like adam made it up. at harvard, they announced last week that no longer will there be fines on your overdue library book, which is $0.50 a day, by the way. $0.50 a day because we understand how much pressure the harvard student already has on him or her. you don't have to pay your overdue book fine. >> tucker: the obvious question, final question to you adam, since you didn't go to college and did just fine, what did you send your kids to college? >> great question. i would like you to come and speak to my wife, tucker. i've been saying this for a million years. we're just sending them to be poisoned. it's like that nike commercial. they're out in the audience wearing gray jumpsuits and being indoctrinated into these horrible ideologies. to be fair, some of them should be scared when the giant jewish guy comes in and yells at them. but other than that, they have no excuse.
11:46 pm
>> i'm very scary. i do scare them. >> tucker: no safe spaces as the movie, and every person on the show is going to watch that. thank you guys. >> think you tucker. >> tucker: don't mess our entire hour of stories like this on monday, memorial day. bringing you a special edition of the show, campus craziness. it will be this time slot, eight eastern on monday. grab a beer and enjoy yourself. in the wake of the manchester bombings on monday, katy perry says she's got an easy solution for stopping all terrorism. she's figured it out. is this the weirdest story of the day? top that, the weird story time, is next.
11:51 pm
>> tucker: time now for top that. the nobel peace prize for state the next range news. president trump has caused massive inflation in the musical committee. a single segment is not enough credit we crated the segment to decide the weirdest thing that has happened today in the news. here to decide for us, gillian turner, former white house national security council employee, probably the best one, and lisa boothe start the "washington examiner" and they join us tonight on the set. great to see you. what do you have? blow my mind. >> tucker, there's been a lot of talk about how to stop terrorism and i think we finally found the answer. >> i think the greatest thing that we can do now is just unite as people who, as a bases, all of it. i think that the greatest thing that we can do is just unite and love on each other and no barriers, no borders. we all need to just coexist.
11:52 pm
>> there's actually been reports. >> tucker: who was that? >> that's katy. pretty >> my god, really? >> tucker: truly. >> there's been reports that isis were so moved by the statements that they've decided to lay down their arms. >> tucker: i'm not surprised because they're coexist bumper sticker has been surprisingly effective against the war against terror. with all the religious symbols on it, visualize world peace and all the stuff, just stops them in their tracks. >> the irony in all this is she was in a $20 million gated community, she's got a security detail, so clearly she's the last person to have to worry about any sort of danger around her. if it's just ridiculous. >> and i are just trying to make tucker jealous. >> nikki haley might have to watch her back now because we might have found a new u.n. ambassador. we went they love on each other and think about that. can you beat that? >> i think so. you've known me for a while. it takes a lot to offend me. a lot at this point.
11:53 pm
>> tucker: you're remarkably even-tempered. >> i am, exactly, working for a few administrations, everyone hates me, that's fine. but this week, i got offended. i wanted to bring the story to you. as you know, the president traveled to the middle east and most in the news cycle has been focused on that for good reason. the send signals all around the world, everything is up for grabs in. when it comes to this trip, how long he is away for, what countries he visits, what order he visits the men, how long he stays, who he lives with, who goes with him, all fair game. but there was an inordinate amount of attention this year and analysis on what the first lady and of anke trump were on their heads. and my issue with this, the main commentary was the fact that they wore veils in vatican city when they visited the pope and they do wear head coverings in saudi arabia. which is all very -- that's fine. but the focus on this and have a complete lack of any discussion
11:54 pm
about what the men around them who are actually the stars of the show are wearing was sort of sexist at its most insidious. to me, the most dangerous kind of sexism is that which is so omnipresent and accepted that nobody even notices it. >> tucker: i would diagnosis differently. i would say it's multiculturalism. the argument is a have to sew the same to the saudi families as you with the pope. >> there's an easy answer to that, which is the reason that these decisions get made is by state department protocol office. they set the tone and the guidelines for the trip. it's not personal decisions they made. that quells a little bit of your criticism i think pretty >> it's good to know that julian doesn't get offended easily. >> by the way, you win because i can't watch that katie parikh live again. you do, but you get this compilation trophy because you get to them. thank you both. thank you both. we'll be right i was wondering if an electric toothbrush really cleans...
11:55 pm
...better than a manual, and my hygienist says it does. but... ...they're not all the same. turns out, they're really... ...different. who knew? i had no idea. so, she said look for... ...one that's shaped like a dental tool with a round... ...brush head. go pro with oral-b. oral-b's rounded brush head surrounds each tooth to... ...gently remove more plaque and... ...oral-b crossaction is clinically proven to... ...remove more plaque than sonicare diamondclean. my mouth feels so clean. i'll only use an oral-b! the #1 brand used by dentists worldwide. oral-b. brush like a pro. you won't see these folks they have businesses to run. they have passions to pursue. how do they avoid trips to the post office? stamps.com mail letters, ship packages, all the services of the post office right on your computer. get a 4 week trial, plus $100 in extras including postage and a digital scale. go to stamps.com/tv and never go to the post office again.

>> tucker: the insatiable left has says president trump is a part of an obstruction of justice. let's see from congresswoman of florida. a massive security breach. they are investigating it and as part of that, they seized a laptop. it wasn't taken from the congressman's office but now she's claiming she owns it. since she happens to sit on the house appropriations committee, she called and they're cheap and threatened him with punishment if his officers when pull back. here's part of it. >> my understanding, they have not been able to compensate members equipment when the member is not under investigation. i don't think you should conduct business that way. there will be consequences.
12:00 am
>> tucker: there will be consequences. threatening the cops if the don't ignore evidence. we were backrororororororororor. we hope you join us then. "the five" starts right now. ♪ >> greg: hi, i am greg gutfeld with kimberly guilfoyle, jesse watters, dana perino, juan williams. it is "the five" ." the terror attack in manchester. still hunting down the bomb maker before the jihad can strike again. it details ahead. but first. expecting wisdom from a pop star is like expecting sonnets from a gerbil. but bono said this of terrorist terrorists. >> they hate music, they hate women. they even hate little girls. they hate everything that we
