create the beloved community, there is no escaping martin luther king jr. >> i just had a feeling that something died within me. ♪ >> tucker: well, good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." a shootinger yesterday at youtube's headquarters in california wounded three people but left only the shooter dead. the killer was an iranian refugee named nasim aghdam. apparently, aghdam believe that youtube's content policies had somehowni sabotaged or efforts o become a digital video star. in a rage, she drove to the company's headquarters and open fire. that is what we know. let's pause and pretend this is not the apn show on fox news, let's pretend that it somewhere else my dial, cnn, msnbc, or anywhere else. if that were true, definition, would have to draw a hard and

fast conclusions from this tragedy using a limited fax asie available. we don't know much of the stage. sweeping generalizations are what we would do. we would need a very specific script in order to make ghostd normalizations. so what would we conclude from what happened yesterday? first off, the shooter was a woman, females, so clearly america has a problem with toxic and femininity, somebody alert the hr department. then there is the gun. we focus relentlessly on the gun because nothing is more pivotal in a shooting then the weapon that was used. it is always the gun's fault, always. the shooter in this case used a smith & wesson 9-millimeter handgun. those guns need to be banned tomorrow, alongho with all other assault pistols. if you disagree with that, you are evil. next, the shooter was a vegan and a supporter of peter. therefore, peter is now a terrorist organization. anyone who supports it, is a monster and has blood on its

hands. let's hope that cnn hosts a town hall meeting where youtube employees can scream at a peta spokesman. they deserve to be screamed at three days because this shooting. wait, media outlets aren't reaching any of those conclusions. why not? there is noo obvious way to use this shooting to advance the objectives of the democratic party. they won't stop talking about it soon. that is how corrupt they are. they are also incredibly stupid, especially on the subject of firearms. thems people yelling at you abot guns on television aren't sure what and the bullet comes out of. we can show you a million examples of that because they are everywhere. here's the most amusing one we've seen. it happened yesterday.th this is msnbc's resident genius nicole wallace mistaking the opening of a soda can for gunfire. watch. >> steve's met steve schmidt, o back to the horror of 9/11, and the complete reliance. we were in our tribes, our corners most of our lives. i think we just heard some

gunshots. can we listen to that for a second, control room? not gunshots, okay. >> tucker: [laughs] "not gunshots." pretty funny. but listen very carefully. she lectures you about the second amendment because she knows that. pete hegseth is "fox & friends" we canan host, a former member f the u.s. military, a decorated one, and he joins us tonight. it's pretty simple question. we know the script, the way these things unfold, how they are analyzed in the press, we draw sweeping conclusions from a pretty limited set of facts. you are not hearing that tonight. you are not hearing the other channels say tacos femininity is a threat to america. why is that? >> the wrong bad guy. female of a rhenium dissent, a fitness buff, vegan, a peta member. not an nra member, not a member of thesc nra, as a result, doest fit their very convenient narrative. as a result, it is silence, tucker.

nbc, cbs, negligent coverage. abc, glancing blow. nbc said she is apparently an animal rights activist. they are moving away from us as quickly as they can with almost -- imagine if it was in and i remember did this. is he apparently an nra member or actually? a mistake, possibly. no judgment or blood on the hands of a peta member, always the nra. it would be absurd to me to to find an entire population as violent because they believe in animal rights, just like it's absurd to believe an entire population of second amendment supporters believes they are violent because they support our rights. >> tucker: i'm a little confused. what you are suggesting, my producer said he is watching the other channels and none of them are covering this. the coverage of gun crimes really isn't an effort to reduce the number of gun crimes. it's an effort to make a series of partisan points? >> a an effort to impugn the

second amendment and those who support it, tucker. ultimately, it all depends on the labels that apply. you know this. identity politics are one-sided. if you, a white christian male who voted for donald trump and believe in a second amendment, who owns an ar-15, you must be -- have a proclivity to violence. if you are ath female of any otr shade who wants a handgun and supports animals, and you commit violence, nothing to see here, turn the channel, good morning america, as they did this morning, will not even cover this deal, this shooting, and won't draw a larger narrative as a result. apparently an animal rights activist. this is what the modern media has turned into,s cheerleading for a cause which is taking away our guns, exactly what they want to do, as opposed to reporting the news and moving on if it's not relevant. >> tucker: it doesn't sound like journalism. it does seem to me that it crosses a line when it moves from attacking the president personally -- they don't like trim, i get it. he doesn't like them, by the

way.tr for that, which we sort of understand, i get it, to moving over to advocating specific policies that affect millions of americans, as if there is only one side of this debate. it moves from childish annoyance to fall on propaganda, doesn't it? >> of course. i've heard journalists and other networks to say, is our obligation to continue to talk about the parkland shooting because we all went to the american people to get the conversation alive. if we don't talk about it, the conversation doesn't continue and policies don't change in washington, d.c. that doesn't sound like activism, i don't know what is. it is your job to report the news that is relevant and a mass shooting is of relevant. you cover it and move on as necessary. they are deciding with the coverage should dwell on. >> tucker: what is so striking is, if you pick a topic that the media would lobby on, maybe camera angles, lighting, they are our experts on that stuff. if there is any group in america

that knows less about firearms? nicole wallace mistook a soda or opening for a gunshot. >> i opened my diet mountain dew, which i happen to like, and no one around here jumped and thought it was an ar-15, let alone a 9-millimeter. i need diet mountain dew because i'm up at n 6:00 in the morning used to be, it keeps up awake, but i've never mistaken, nor anyone would mistake that is gunfire. they know nothing, tucker. how many members of the media are members of the nra, how many of them have fired an ar-15? they don't know a squad automatic weapon from a bb gun. yet, they will tell me what i can or cannot carry. of course it is political activism to help the democratic fight. they are in the take, they won't cover it. >> tucker: who put all the dumb people on tv? to see you. you are not one of them. several tech ceos responded to the youtube shooting by demanding that regular people be

deprived of of the right to cay firearms. ceo jack dorsey tweeted this... he endorsed it a vans issue by the march for our lives, those d include, banning high-capacity magazines, confiscating all weapons designated as assault rifles. what is interesting, and 2015, twitter, the company he runs, spent more than $60,000 provided, yes, personal security to jack dorsey. were those guards unarmed? they weren't. the former director of african-american advertising for hillary clinton's 2016 campaign joins us tonight. great to see you, joel. i appreciate you comingg on. it is hard to read this as anything else than an effort by the people in charge to bring

more power to themselves, peopls in charge, that is what they do instinctively. we get the guns, you don't, shut up and obey. why issh that not what is happening right now? >> tucker, i don't really think that is the right way to look at this issue. i really enjoyed listening to your conversation with your colleague a little bit earlier. i'm interested to hear that you guys think that it's funny that someone on tv in this environment thought about a soda can opening was a gunshot. you thought that was funny. >> tucker: i think it's idiotic. to clarify, i think it's idioti idiotic. >> people hear gunshots all the time and they don't think it's funny it's funny. >> tucker: theyc. had a soda opening. my point is, if you will advocate for positions, you have a moral obligation to learn something about the topic. most people who are doing that haven't bothered to learn. that is the problem. i am not in any way denigrating the fear people feel in the face of gunfire. ile am making fun of people mistaking a mountain dew can for gunfire. the point, is, ordinary people

are afraid. you are right. we agree on that.rg so why would the people in charge you are protected by armed security demand that no one be allowed to protect themselves? >>? i have some frustration towards what i heard from the twitter h ceo before for a different reason. i don't like the strength that we have of waiting for gun violence to come to your backyard before you get woke about it. i mean, just because it happened at a tech company yesterday, you've got to this letter with all these tech ceos who decided to sign on. listen, i was touched recently by gun violence. i had a very close friend that was impacted by what happened at the veterans home in california. guess what, i felt strongly about gun violence and about all of the concerns around patth before that. it didn't take that issue to peak my interest. by the way, i think it is very interesting, tucker, a lot of the people who watch the show and watch this network feel the same way i do. if you look at the poll -- >> tucker: i feel the same way you do.

>> tucker: hold on. let's be honest. one of the pieces of political rhetoric that's driving me crazy isis the idea that only a select few care about gun violence. i think most people, most normal people, or horrified by shootings. i know i am. the question is not, do you feel deeply about it, of course you are upset. the question is, what is the most effective response? what is the wise thing to do? that is with the debate is. is not about who cares. everyone cares. come on. >> i would turn that question to you and say, what should we do? >> tucker: i will give you an example. with the parkland shooting, we have a well-documented string of failures by people whose job it was to protect the kids in that school and they didn't. there were four armed cops outside. i never heard their names mentioned at the march for our lives. i doubt youou know their names. i never heard anybody mention that. we hired people to protect those kids, 17 were murdered because they didn't act but it's the

nra's fault? that it's insane.e. that is pure politics. you're not taking it seriously if you reach that conclusion. >> there were a lot of people who failed those children that day. some of them were the people who didn't run into the building. a number of them were people who were in the statehouse in tallahassee and at capitol hill in washington, d.c. those people also failed. you could have acted after sandy hooklk. >> tucker: you are defending the people in power, as almost everyone on the left does. the people in power are blameless, they didn't do anything wrong. it is you who have committed no crime whatsoever, the guns in my closet, if i have them, would be no threat to anybody but i have to disarm, for the cops whose job it a was to protect the kid, they are cool. we can't blame them. >> i b didn't say that. i agreed with you. i said they share some blame. i said the blame didn't end with them, though. it also extended to the people who were in tallahassee at their statehouse on capitol hill, state houses all across the country who failed to act.

>> tucker: what -- i take you seriously, so i wanted to talk to you tonight. in the minute and half we have left, give me a discrete step, specific step, that they could have taken to prevent the parkland shooting for example. >> let's look at a couple things. why hasn't the president acted on bump stocks? i thought he was hot to trot on that. >> tucker: what does that have to do with parkland? >> here's the problem -- >> tucker: you don't know anything about guns. >> here's the problem, though, tucker.ur your, answer is, well, it wouldn't stop this specific act. >> tucker: i am asking honest question! > it's the gun violence culture. >> tucker: you're blaming the state house in tallahassee for the culture? >> actually, i am. we have a culture that has accepted that gun violence is something we can't do anything about when we know we can. >> tucker: i feel it is something we can do something about and when armed guards neglect their duty to protect children, i think we should hold

them accountable. you and ted shifted the blame from the people actually had power to peoplepe whose other positions you don't like in the statehouse, republicans, and i asked ben, trying to be rational, what do they have done,e and you said, trump shoud band bump stocks, which had no -- >> i didn't finish. i was going to say more. the president can act on this. the way, the nra, they could be partners here. the nra is running scared. the reason why you see them turning john paul stevens and a bunch of 17-year-olds into bogeyman is because they know, public sentiment is at an all-time low for what they fight for, the right to gun manufacturers -- >> tucker: you are arguing rhetoric and bumper stickers. i want actual solutions because, like you, i care. i want to know what the new law is that would have prevented parkland. there are a lot of shootings, i ask for one specific answer to that one, and i got bump stocks and john paul stevens. >> i can give you more. you can restrict access to people who are mentally ill. >> tucker: we already have that. >> you can stop terrorists from

purchasing guns. congress wouldn't do that. >> tucker: we already have that. >> so many people have tried to but the entrenched system in washington -- >> tucker: that's a lie. go buy a gun, it screens people who are mentally ill. the a authorities, the actual authorities, failed to screen this good despite the fact that everyone knew he was mentally ill. they didn't don anything. >> the majority of americans and republicans disagree with you and theoc polling reflects that. >> tucker: okay. i don't know what to say. those are the facts. joel, thank you. i appreciate it. at the top of the show, one of our grass mentioned that gma did not cover the youtube shooting. in fact, they did spend time on the shooting, this morning over the course of a couple of hours. we wanted to correct that. washington -- excuse me, i have a frog at my throat -- washington elites or horrified that the president may want to send troops to guard out border but they are also horrified that those troops may

a company like google, they want access to all that data. they have said, they are standing up more research in china, and it is concerning for the united states. >> tucker: what i'm confusedha by it is, so, google describes itself as a multinational company, really a corporation of the world. it was incubated here and everything about google fundamentally is american. it would not have been possible to start google in china. yet, google doesn't seem to feel obligation whatsoever to the u.s. government or the american people. how does that work exactly? >> this is capitalism. these companies are responsible to shareholders. they are not accountable to the american people so they will dos within their businessde interest and if there is a business interest that google has overseas to offshore jobs, they will do that. >> tucker: so american taxpayers subsidize the education of the people who founded google and whohe work there, and we created the regulatory legal framework possible for it to start?

again, no other company like this has started in europe, not in asia. we make it possible and then they turn around and undermine the national security of the country. i know that people describe that as market capitalism but that seems immoralal to me. >> at the end of the day, we are in a technology race.'s it's not just china. it's other countries as well. vladimir putin has said whoever controls ai will lead to the world. france just released a new plan on artificial intelligence. we are going to have to compete. we are going to have to make u.s. an attractive place for people to come and invest and do research and found companies and grow them and we are going to have to win t this race by being faster than others. >> tucker: here's the thing that confuses me, companies like google are big on importing talent. they -- you and i understand why and they argue that we don't have enough engineers, we need to bring them in on visas. is there any thought from the billionaires who run these

countries, and say that we should invest in american education? this country isn't producing an adequate number of scientists. maybe we can help with that. because they feel no obligation to the country, only to their shareholders, they don't feel that?is >> some of them do. you see eric schmidt, the former chairman of alphabet, google's parent company, was part of the defense department's innovation advisory board. he is very active in talking to people at the pentagon about how the united states can maintain its leadership in artificial intelligence. some of these leaders care. >> tucker: really? andrew carnegie put a library in every town in america once he got rich. i don't see any of these guys giving back really in any way to the country. they seem to be taking from it. mainly left-wing. >> im think a lot of them could do more. philanthropy for billionaires would be great. >> tucker: it would be great. we should demand it because this country made their fortunes possible i think. thank you for coming on. i appreciate it.

>> ♪ >> ♪ ♪ >> tucker: it's been nearly 18 months, we've been keeping track, and hillary clinton's flame dream is not close to running out of fuel. t it is getting concerning. while speaking on tuesday night at the wing, a women only club in new york, because as women only, it's not sexist, clinton began blaming everybody, from the nra, to misogyny itself or heryn defeat in the 2016 electi. here's part of it.

>> before the james comey letter, i was ahead, i got more votes than anybody in history except one term of president obama. every day that goes by, more evidence, more proof about fake news and the russians, cambridge analytica, misogyny, sexism, the nra has spent more money against me than i ever spent against anybody. and now we know russians paid for some of it, paid for actors or russians agents, personnel, to dress up in those very attractive jail outfits and go around in a mock jail so people could yell "lock her up." >> tucker: we know who's on msnbc's website at midnight every night. [laughs] it's not a political speech. that was more like group therapy. honestly, the easy thing would be to make fun of hillary clinton. "she's so wrong."

but i'm past that. this is sad. will anybody help? she's calling out, where are her friends, her husband, the dnc? is like watching someone you fall apart. it's poignant and tragic and someone ought to help. tammy bruce isug a radio host energy joins us tonight. i'm only half-joking. whatever else this is, this is not empowering for women, as the father of three daughters, i can say that. >> look, there is a point where, you'd never think you'd say>> this, you do begin to feel sorry for her. b and as a political person, look, a part of what her complaint was is that fox news is trying to "impeach her." in other words, there was coverage on this network. there is interestingly, of course, the complaint that it come from other democrats across the network, people who work for her campaign. but she is in in a unique opportunity, unique position, since she is getting coverage and she is clearly searching for relevance, she could talk about policy. she could use this so that we would actually be discussing an

argument that she could be having --dash mike -- >> tucker: that's a smart point. >> she could be on the tucker carlson show. >> tucker: she's not stupid. she's been around a long time. her claim was "i read the policies."i there is some truth in that. she could be doing that but she's not. >> she's been in the white house, but in the senate, she's been a secretary of state, and yet this has devolved into a group therapy dynamic where she is going over the same complaints that people that have been in that group, they read the book, they know what her complaints are, but she's also been inserting news of the day, like now suddenly it is the cambridgee analytica, the nra, because that is what is happening now. at this point, it's almost as though she's on an episode of "intervention, where people should try to get here in the van to get her to the plan to get her to the place where she can find some peace. it does get to a point where it's almost an application of a responsibility she could have to

all of her fans and supporters and to really deal seriously with the issues. they come too, want solutions. she still, with this great attention internationally, is not using the platform she has 2% those solutions. it's sad and i think that there could be, even though i would disagree with her solutions, we at least then could move forward on these issues and try to make a difference. >> tucker: that's exactly right. we could add to the sum total of the conversation, which is important. by the a way, that is her speakg live. we actually don't have a huge desire to cover everything hillary clinton, despitete her claim. i think it is interesting. can i make one more point? the irony, which people are not proceeding, is that her party has moved very far from where she was. we were along for a time when hillary clinton was the most radical person in the democratic party. >> that's an interesting position. in arguing the things that she and her husband used to

represent, which was balanced budgets and getting people off of welfare and into work, and all of that, if she wanted to be serious, that is what she could be doing, arguments about how to improve the quality of women's lives. you could argue that she says nobody else was told to go away like she has been told to go away, but al gore and john mccain and john kerry actually continued to talk about policy. we can disagree with what they stood for, but as a woman, i think that there are so many other opportunities with the platform she has, and her own party is saying, enough is enough at this point. >> tucker: if one of my kids acted like that, i would be very upset. really quickly, a new category, a seminar at george washington university in washington, examining how christians get "unmerited perks and have built-in advantages over everyone else in america." we look to the numbers, christians are not --dash not thriving in this country.

this is all measured. but what do you off this? to say this out loud, it seems strange. >> i don't identify as a christian. i believe in god, i believe that jesus is the guy, it's a serious thing to identify as a christian. i'm taking it seriously and slowly. lookinghe from the outside, whai see is a political commentator and analyst is christians maybe have a privilege of being persecuted and attacked and martyred around the world. i mean, it is a remarkable attacked and i'm a given here at home. facebook had to apologize for refusing a catholic university ads that featured jesus on the cross because it was too violent. remember, the chick-fil-a controversy because of its owner being a christian man. even the attacks that billy graham went under because of his christian faith. there is no privilege there except to be mocked. >> tucker: there isn't. tammy bruce, great to see you. up next, some hard news.
