mccarthyism enthusiastically. watch. speak out this is nothing short of treasonous because it is the betrayal of the reason stomach region. >> i think donald trump is a fascist and i think everything is stands for is disgusting. >> that is pure racism. the government is cynically using that racism to appeal to his base. speak out that is not what you see in a democracy, that's exactly what you cnn authoritarian regime. >> they dare me to say impeachment, and today i say, impeach 45. >> maxine waters did not stop there, she urged her followers towe hunt down and harass anyboy tied to the trump administration. >> if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you push back on them. if you tell them they are not welcome. >> and they obeyed it. as a result, this happened.

>> you are deporting and impressing tens of thousands of people are seeking asylum in the united states. shame! shame! >> tucker: says all rage by proxy of course. they would like to hurt trump himself but he's not around so they attack his employees and supporters. in the absence of any of those, a star on the sidewalk with his name on it. watch this. that's how it started. but smashing the star did not cool the emotions of the star smashers. now the star is a venue for street fights. >> i don't give a [bleep]. >> get out of my face.

[shouting] >> tucker: hear that? what you haven't heard our democratic leaders appealing for calm. theen democratic party at this point has become totally unmoored from whatever principles want to find it. franklin roosevelt who organized labor couldn't do that today. too many union members were middle-aged white guys. instead their only remaining principal is hatred of the president. if trump supports something, they are against it. if he's against it, they are huge fans. considered for the past fews. months, ms-13, a deadly street gang that preys on poor people, mostly immigrants. the president called them animals, because they are.nt within hours the left produce a wave of speeches and all beds extolling the basic human

dignity of gang members with face tattoos whose motto is killed, and control. the law enforcement agency was charged with arresting ms-13 must be bad hence the now common demand that ice be abolished so that immigration laws can once again be and forests. then there is stormy daniels. even on the far left hard-core pornography was not considered an ideal career for your daughter. now daniels is touted on the left of some sort of civil rights hero. when rudy giuliani doubted her credibility he was blasted for impugning the respectability who have on cameras for pay. for years the left was even more antivenom than the right for demanding free speech for americans, and good for them. then came trump. free speech allowed donald trumr and the supporters to be heard so now the left is against free speech. they are baking facebook and twitter to suppress the opinions they dislike and since the news

outlets don't toe the democratic 'tparty line, the line that has existed for about 15 minutes. the left also used to worry about the unchecked power of the sectors of our government, the cia and fbi. they worry that those bureaucrats might violate civil libertieste at will and might sy on americans. they might hide all that beneath a black cloak of the word classified. now those agencies have used their power to spy on trump's associates. suddenly, the left considers them these unaccountable members of the deep state heroes. how about this one?p for decades the left accuse the rich of not paying their fair share of taxes. okay, last year's tax reform bill roll back the amount of state and local taxes that rich people can deduct. now that the wealthy forms thee core of the democratic party's constituency, liberals are outraged by this. new york and new jersey are suing the trump administration t to get the rich their tax deductions back. we could go on and on.

the left hated george w. bush, for embroiling with war. the left use to fear corporate controlled major news outlets and they should but after president trump attacked "the washington post" as i mouthpiece for jeff bezos, they said those critiques were attacks on the first amendment. president trump tweeted threats at kim jong un so his sister was praised at the winter olympics for stealing the spotlight from vice president pence. president trump wants better relations with russia and peace and serious and naturally all the geniuses in washington tell us that we have to prepare for war from both countries. to anyone who remember the democrats of the 1960s, the 1 90s or even three years ago, it's all very confusing. that party is dead and has been read replaced by a new one whose entire platform could be, say n. to trump. it is in politics anymore, it's a world dumbest religion. tammy bruce joins us tonight. how easy it is the to control

the president, whatever the left says he opposed. >> great to be on set with you. it is in a way it's kind of strange and funny. we accuse the left of having trump derangement syndrome as a mocking example of the fact that they just simply need to grow up, but this is something thatt is the inability of people to acknowledge and to deal with a real life he adult event that they lost an election and now there is an effort to normalizes being so damaged if you will buy an external event that some u.s. psychiatrists now are saying they have more patients with trumpe anxiety disorder. of course, none of that is really true or genuine. it is about people needing to go up and deal with reality properly but in the process as you note, they as liberals are giving the president an enormous amount of control. they are lives and every moment

of how they react is based on what he says, what hey does. they have a seat at a completeet control to him. if they step back for a moment, and realize that they could have some influence, that they could work in the dynamic to get their policy is narratives, their preferences past, maybe they would have some success. but now, you have leadership as you have played in the opening encouraging this refusal to deal with reality, this dynamic that plays on effectively. almost any abuse of dynamic. it comes down to individual americans deciding that there are going to be children at this point. >> it's literally reactionary, and they were reacting purely to him. but i'm not sure i even really understand that. they find trump the most fascinating person that has ever lived. it is nothing that trump says or

does that they don't obsess over. like stalkers. >> especially since the things that he does has improved everyone's lives, there was no doubt about that. isis is dead, ms-13 is being dealt with and everyone has mort money in their pockets. the job economy is at historic lows, and there is no one who hasn't benefited from this, except of course isis and ms-13. what is it about him? he's everything that they thought couldn't exist. they had this idea and they were told certain things by their leadership of how it was going to be, and as a result since everyone thought it was going to be a certain way and they were promised certain things, donald trump represents the facp that the future maybe isn't controlled by them, that there is a different thing that can happen in that can be encouraged by democratic leadership to see this in a personal way, exclusively in an emotional way and in the most extreme fashion appealing to the french. i can tell you, and i've said

this before, maybe we are not as divided as they say we are. the majority of democrats also agree with the benefit that the president is bringing us. democrats are walking away from the party, and there is a shift in what's happening. democrat leadership simply was not prepared for this and they feel that harassment of people who don't think like them is the easiest and best thing to do. >> tucker: so they are failing, and they are hysterical. it's an amazing moment. tammy bruce, great to see you. richard goodstein is a lawyer and he advised hillary clinton'. richard, i never see a moment where democrats are angry because taxes have been raised on the rich. if there is a sort of poor idea of the democratic party it is that the rich don't pay enough. i democratic tax bill make them pay more and, they are sitting them for it.

>> i think the core democratic value is social and economic justice. it's unpopular, the tax bill that passed and, b, it's not working. for most people the wages are flat. so andrew cuomo who you would think is one of the founders of the democratic nomination, he is suing because trump signed a bill that raises taxes on the rich. it doesn't allow the deductions from the federal tax form on state taxes and that only affects rich people and he's outraged by that. did you think that you would live to be old enough to see that? a standard-bearer of progressive values angry that the rich are getting settled. >> the truth is again, and,

that's what i did invariably. and, states with high property taxes. the fact remains, the rich pay too much in taxes. i can see that wisdom in that argument but it suggests that whatever trump is for, they are against and that's not really a good way to chart your course as a political party. >> and, middle class and most wage owners, probably would either increase or kept current the rates for wealthy people. that's what democrats would have done. >> so trump rates taxes on the rich. i'm not criticizing you for that, i get it. you are just not acknowledging how we are at this moment is. >> overall, talk to your friends, you are in new york. go up and down wall street and asked them if they are paying higher or lower taxes.

notwithstanding the local state deduction issue, most of them got a huge tax benefit. >> did you ever think you would see a moment or the democratic party defended the dignity of hard-core pornography? whenrd rudy rudy giuliani impud stormy daniels, the left side there's nothing wrong with that, but did you ever think that we would get to that point? is there a huge consistency of pornography workers or what is that about? >> i never thought we'd see the president on air force one deny something when it talked about stormy daniels or karen mcdougall, and his lawyer admitted he was lying.ho i never saw that coming. >> tucker: i see that too but it didn't speak to the principle of an entire party. is there a big constituency that thinks that pornographic actors don't get the respect that they are due? or what about ms-13, is there a big ms-13's constituency and they are like, you know what, we have to shore up the base with

the ms-13 constituents. >> if there is no constituency about tearing babies from others. i will guarantee you that we agree on that. it's been babies from others? that happens to american citizens every single day but nobody cares. every american with children, half of all federal prisoners are separated from their kids. but nobody cares because they are not illegal aliens. where's the outrage for that, and i idea? >> plus people are traumatized in central america. >> what about utica, one about youngstown? they are separated from their kids by forests and men with guns separated from their children and nobody cares because they are americans. >> i think people who go to jail, they have made choices and they are different from the person. they didn't make a choice by violating immigration law, that was mandatory?

>> i think we are talking about two different things. >> while i'm talking about people who have -- the u.s. needs to be sympathetic to people like this and we are not anymore. >> president trump promised to build a wall on the border and carried the republican party to victory two years ago on that promise. remember that? elections are supposed to have consequences but this election didn't have a consequence for congressional republicans. they are still refusing to pay forr the wall, why is that? lou dobbs may have an answer for us, he joins us from new york, next. ♪ m by...

how does this help the american citizens of philadelphia? >> to talk about democracy that the people of philadelphia elected the mirror, people who are either born here or are u.s. citizens support the mayor and still support the mayor's decision, the ability to cut that time between ice. >> so by that you are saying that any elected official because he was elected by definition, all of his decisions have the support of the people. so donald trump, and hisos position on immigration is the will of the people of the united states so how dare you question them. >> there is a difference. donald trump one bike technicality. >> hold on. as an american, let me explain our system to you. we know you are here illegally. as an american i will tell you that he won under the rules that

department of homeland security tmngerprints. so criminals will still be going through a system and will still go back and i.c.e. has this information. i.c.e. will not target a foolish teenager. >> so they won't enforce federal law in philadelphia. so that's federal law, by the way, voted on the system that you lauded. you are now saying it's immoral to enforce them so i guess i'm the one who believes in democracy, not you. the state of new york has an assault weapons ban and lots of towns are against that. should local serifs say, i'm not for the band? would that be okay with you? >> we already have some counties in the upstate or across the country who are pushing against ogun laws. >> tucker: now, we don't have -- >> it's a democracy.n

universal, universal medicaid. this country is tens of trillions in debt. should we extend those benefits to illegal aliens and if so, why? >> i think it goes to the concept of citizenship. as a nation we have matured from only free land owner white people to -- >> don't hit me with the race. don't lecture me about that. >> i believe that we should open the franchise, because the unique -- >> to you, you are here illegally. >> it's a unique experiment and we are all equal. >> tucker: i don't know what hot spot is in spanish but for you, you are here illegally. >> that's the american way but that's a different segment.

they would be responsible for getting that fisa application release. i'm glad that you filed that, and it doesn't give us a full picture. what do you think has been redacted and then why? >> i think more corruption has been redacted. and it thinks that obama administration andly frankly soe of the trump administration does not want us to see, and, these spies fisa warrants were used in the obama administration and signed as recently as june of 2017 by rod rosenstein. and there are a lot of people who don't want to see this full information.

and there is classified here. and the president's declassification earlier this year frankly led to this release of this material through the foia process. , this should override their concerns again. >> tucker: i agree completely. but here's another question, there is are valid reasons to reject information in a document? >> frankly it ought to require the disclosure. the justice department and the fbi need to stop the cover-up. and using these exemptions and

reductions to protect a public disclosure and appropriate use of those materials were those privileges, the president needs to step in. this is why president trump should act. >> they ought to be fired immediately for that. that's totally indefensible. most americans are horrified but california.ning in bill de blasio see is it as a model for new york. we will discuss what's happening comingto up next. ♪motorcycle revving ♪ motorcycle revving ♪ no matter who rides point, ♪ there are over 10,000 allstate agents riding sweep. ♪♪ and just like tyrone taylor,

it's reality bites. do we want to believe that. that is why i am going thermo nuclear on you. the bone-in ribeye, this is the catalog, the bentley of steaks. a man orders that at dinner, and he doesn't go upne in your estimation? >> i don't find him more attractive. >> tucker: purely scientific. let's just say a man orders this, and part of you is like, i was on the fence, i like this guy. >> you are speaking traditional roles? >> tucker: no, i'm telling you, what isal your heart to tel you, would you see this estate, a man who has the courage, do you say, talk of masculinity or do you say that as a man for me? >> toxic masculinity, if you are hurting people without estate, becoming toxic -- >> tucker: i think -- >> there is nothing more masculine then holding a carrot that way. i would find it just as masculine as male. >> tucker: i think our experiment has produced a pretty

clear answer. cathy areu, great to see you tonight. >> good to see you. and/or meat. tune in every night at eight to the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugnessmu and especially groupthink which is in evidence everywhere but we will continue to resist it. sean hannity is up next. >> sean: great to see you tonight. i know where you got that stake. from del frisco. >> tucker: yes, i did. [laughter] >> sean: goodd to see you. welcome to "hannity." we are 439 days into the trump-russia collusion which meant, and still, nothing, zero evidence that donald trump or his campaign did anything wrong. the president rightfully isn calling out to mueller and his extreme conflict of interest and has blatant political bias in a huge way. rodents attorney rudy giuliani will set the record tonight with a very latest. also, if robert mueller is really concerned with russia collision, well, i'll be happily be glad to point them in the right direction. all the evidence he needs..
