explains why. it is out tomorrow, i hope you buy it. it is great, i think. that is it tonight. we are live in new york tonight, sean hannity is live in our studio in washington. >> hannity: i meant your studio and you could to be a guest on my show coming up later tonight. give me time to breathe and that you can collect yourself. good show tonight. congrats on the book. >> tucker: thank you. >> hannity: welcome to "hannity." i'm not overstating you this. this is literally no a tipping point in american history. democrats and the media, they have no shame. zero restraint, zero concern for truth, zero concern for innocent lives. they are all too willing to destroy, all for political power. that is more important that is what is truth and justice. now we have one party in this country, it is about smears, slander, disgorgement, the media in this country they are the

accomplices. be of the evidence tonight. they're using every dirty trick in the book to write out the clock on judge kavanaugh's nomination. last week they got their wish. the fbi performing a background check into allegations against judge kavanaugh come his seventh background check. they have moved to the goalpost, almost instantaneously. want more investigations. longer investigations and guess what? there are no testing out a brand-new accusation from the mainstream media. what they are forgetting here is that this is a real man's life. a real family, real kids. for them it is just a political game, a quest for power and attempt to wait it out for 36 days until the all important midterm elections. we'll break all of this down with all the information you need including a report from the independent prosecutor who questioned both of them. she is calling the allegations we could come on cooperated, we also been message from dianne feinstein. as per usual, the former fbi

director, he is trying to win from the sidelines and once again fighting with all of his friendly democratic party and a brand-new nbc interview. a disaster on so many levels. said tight, buckle up, it is time for our opening monologue. ♪ if you are the average american that works hard, plays by the rules and paces to pays their . good americans need to step back tonight. this is about republican, democrat, or liberal with no due process, zero cooperating evidence. the left in america is now smearing an individual and they been doing it now for 15 consecutive days. calling him evil, accusing him of being a serial, a predator, a liar, a perjurer, much more.

a man who has served his country and has been in the spotlight now for almost 40 years without a single lift of misconduct until 15 days ago. as we americans, we better get this as a country right. the rog to judgment, getting rid of all presumption of innocence and due process, it is a clear present danger to all of you, to every american. tonight at a huge rally in johnson city, tennessee, resident trump talking about the supreme court nominee and the pillar of what is americans a justice system. the presumption of innocence, let's watch the president. >> democrats are willing to do anything and to hurt anyone to get their way. just like they are doing with george brett kavanaugh. [boos] they been trying to destroy him since the very first second he was announced because they know that george brett kavanaugh will follow the constitution as written. he is a good man.

a great student, great intellect, he has never had a problem and all the sudden, let's go back to high school. maybe they should go before high school and then they want to take a lot longer with the fbi. no, the fbi -- if we took ten years, they would want more time. >> hannity: here we are on day 15, judge kavanaugh. edit wild press conference earlier today the president let loose and had this to say about the important process that the media and democrats are trying to know a band. this is dangerous. he took it on, take a look. >> i want the fbi -- this is another seventh investigation. it is not they are just starting. i want them to do a very comprehensive investigation. whatever that means according to the senators and the republicans on the republican majority.

i want them to do that. the reason i would like them to go quickly, to so simple. because it is unfair to him at this point. what his wife is going through, what his beautiful children are going through is not describable. it is not describable. it is not fair. >> hannity: of course his boat was once again delayed last week because the left successfully coerced a flaky republican, to go along with their demands. a new background check into the allegations made by professor christine blasey ford. only a week, senator jeff flake sat down with one of his democratic colleagues on "60 minutes" to pat himself on the back for his heroic moments. he did admit in the interview that he was seeking reelection, he would never would have done this. ever. he came to the democratic demands, he is no other hero. take a look. >> you have announce that you

are not running for reelection, could he have done this? >> no. [laughs] not a chance. >> not a chance. >> because politics have become too sharp, too partisan? >> there is no value to reaching across the aisle, there is no courtesy, there is no incentive. >> hannity: tonight the fbi's background check into christine blasey ford, these are all important facts you have to remember. it is well underway. rachel mitchell, to remember her? the question both professor ford and judge kavanaugh, she has already released her report to the senate committee and these findings. they are devastated. this is what she said, a he said, she said case is incredibly difficult to prove but this case is even weaker than that. dr. ford identified other witnesses to the event at those witnesses either refuted her allegations were failed to cooperate them. for the reasons discussed below

i do not think any reasonable prosecutor would bring this case based on the evidence before the committee. the prosecutor went on to list multiple issues were professor ford's allegations including no consistent account and when the alleged assault actually happened, a failure to progress identify judge kavanaugh as he is salient. a failure to member key details including who remembered him to the party, how she got to the party and where the party even took place. how she got home from the party. she does however remember unrelated details like the consumption of exactly one beer and that she took no medication that day. another issue listed by prosecutors, it surrounds the fact that her allegations have been cooperated by nobody. including a lifelong friend. dr. ford also struggled to recall recent events related to her allegations including the date of a polygraph test.

also inconsistencies with her psychological trauma claims including her fear of flying and the fact that she flies frequently in many of her hobbies include flying all over the world. rachel mitchell reporting activities of democrats and her attorneys likely affected her account. it is important to remember that senator feinstein, this is where we get into facts matter. cooperation matters, she mentioned these four people. none of them cooperated her story including an alleged eyewitness to the incident. dianne feinstein played politics with professor ford's very serious claims from the very beginning. she knew about this in july. last week senate democrats demanding an fbi investigation, feinstein and her colleagues have known about this as i said since july. this calls for investigation into keith ellison? for that matter, one at bill clinton? why didn't senator feinstein ask brett kavanaugh when they met

personally? why at the very same time that she is advising professor ford on what attorney to hire, instead of contacting her with a qualified and experienced nonpartisan lawyer? feinstein suggested a partisan left winger. big-time democratic donor. once be claimed on national tv, she would resist president trump. she dismissed paula jones. it was only ten, to 12 minutes. excuse me, he exposed himself. bill clinton at the time comes that was the allegation. she defended al franken. according to a report from the washington beacon, one of her close friends is now searching for anyone willing to come forward against brett kavanaugh. they are sending out emails to people. literally soliciting people as late as last week. feinstein cared about getting to the truth, why a democratic hack events consist on what is a serious issue?

meanwhile even though professor ford requested her name remain private, it was leaked. the congressional democrats are the only officials with access to her story and senate republicans are now bowing rightly so to investigate dianne feinstein the democratic handling of this case. she is denying any responsibility for the leak but earlier today president trump called out the senator for her shameless political practice and they were shameless. take a look. >> dianne feinstein knew about this two months earlier. if she wanted a really thorough investigation, we had all the time in the world. she didn't have to wait till after the hearing was closed. essentially. she should have said listen, i have a problem. i have this report. i would like the fbi to look at it while we are doing the hearing. we had two months. for the democrats to be talking about, we want more time for the fbi, if you wanted more time

with the fbi, why didn't diane feinstein bring this up? >> hannity: why didn't she? america deserves an answer to that question. why did she tell her republican colleague, we need time, we can't rush this. we have plenty of time democrats have continued their political stall tactics. last week it was a narrow investigation, limited to only a week and i despite president trump's ordering the fbi to investigate any and all legitimate claims, it is still not enough for the left. they want fbi investigations and every single claim made against brett kavanaugh no matter how unsubstantiated and some are even calling for an investigation into whether or not he lied about how much you drink in high school. he said sometimes he drank a lot. like a lot of kids in high school and college. that is called moving the goal post, that is called moving the game. they want to stall the nomination, they want the midterm elections, these facts all matter. 36 days, you, we come with the people, do you want to put these

people in power? they were to impeach the president, they want their crimes back and they want to open the borders and they want to keep obamacare. if the fbi does extend the investigation into the second accuser than the third accuser we arty know about the second accuser we find again, on such educated claims from a woman who claims that brett kavanaugh may have exposed himself to her in a drunken college party when he was a freshman. she doesn't really remember in factories that she wasn't fully sure if he was the perpetrator. she called around according to "the new york times" to see if they remembered the incident whether it was him. they did not. she even acknowledges that she has significant memory gaps from that evening. "new york times" refuses to write the story. in this case the fbi is likely to find a lot of inconsistencies from her while delegations paid remember, she is claiming that brett kavanaugh was involved in a serial drugging and gang rape

that happened almost every weekend in the 80s. she went to ten of these parties, today she is represented by the all fame seeking attorney michael nava lottie, the new face party sat down with nbc news. by the end of the day it will be a disaster. take a look. >> in that statement she said she became aware of efforts by brett kavanaugh and his friend to spiked punch at parties. in her interview she said she saw them near the punch but did not specifically she saw either man man to spike it. did you see brett kavanaugh spiking the punch? >> i saw him giving red solo cups to quite a few girls' night time. i saw him around the punch. the container. i don't know what he did. i saw him buy them. >> are their friends who member these parties to? >> i think everyone in the county of these parties. >> we haven't heard from those

friends. i am asking, are the people alive today? >> yes, there are people who know about those parties. >> this morning she provided four names of friends who went to those parties with her, one of them says she does not recall that. another friend is deceased. we have reach out to the other two and haven't heard back. >> hannity: still come as your cooperation, the same nbc news that set on that interview when she was making allegations about bill clinton. they refused to air that for over a month all because they said it couldn't be cooperated. they needed time to vent it. nbc, this is a disgrace. this is not news. this is them letting an individual make on cooperated claims and then just airing it. here they are running totally unverified claims against judge kavanaugh and multiple inconsistencies yet again. are there any news standards

over there? should we all be surprised? this is now a disaster for nbc news. by the way, tom brokaw if you're watching and if somebody calls you in 3 minutes, will you err this? you need to speak out publicly. he spent her whole leg trying to build that brand. all three of these stories, they have one thing in common, zero cooperating evidence. outright denials of so-called witnesses and many inconsistencies. after all, this is how your mainstream media is now treating the ongoing supreme court battle. this week and a cartoonist drew this file depiction of judge kavanaugh's young daughter, praying for her angry, lying, alcoholic father for assaulting dr. ford. and never made into a newspaper. there cartoonist publish it online on his own. he didn't return our request for commenting, shocking. james comey, he of course is calling for an unlimited time

frame for fbi investigations and bashing anybody, he won't sit down with investigators "most people will speak to the fbi refusal to do so is its own kind of statement." i am thinking, really? ask a general flint about speaking to the fbi. that worked out perfect for them. in the case of even general flint, they didn't think he lied. he was charged with lying. when you see all of these brett kavanaugh off beds come asking for more information and use the media rushing to judgment. when you see democrats demanding more and more investigation, you have to remember this one clear point and this is what matters tonight, this is all about politics. it is not about power. it is not about the truth. democrats have been against brett kavanaugh publicly from they did that he was announced. no matter what this investigation finds, they will

never vote for them anyway. they never were. it is likely every single report and event in modern history. this is a matter that we better get right. if you don't have evidence and you are going to rush to judgment and you will have zero presumption of innocence, by the way this is not the first time. ferguson, missouri, richard jewell, the baltimore, maryland, the cambridge police, duke lacrosse, now judge kavanaugh. clarence thomas. we have a party of smears, slander, lies and no due process. non! they should be political. all the left-wing friends in the mainstream media, the deep state are backing them up. there is no light they're not willing to destroy for power. no reputation. there is no process. no issue they want to politicize. that means there is no shame, their actions are literally as

we speak reprehensible. we have a lot to get to tonight. he's been in the forefront of all this, lindsey graham. welcome, it is good to be back. to me this is serious. what was the deal on friday? >> here's the deal. senator flake voted yes on the committee with the understanding that she would like the fbi to interview the 340 witnesses that were interviewed by the republican on the committee. pj, mrs. leland, and mark judge. lisa murkowski set out that the fbi to try to check the committee's homework and be also agreed to interview mrs. ramirez with the allegations. >> hannity: that was the new yorker? >> right.

if they won't further interview, they will sit down with senator mcconnell and see what they can work out. they had a deal for a week, we limited the interviews two, three people named by dr. ford. we will see with the fbi finds. >> hannity: it is now been expanded out? the president said. >> no it is not. this is a request out of signage. nobody asked to do this. nobody asked for that. not one democrat asked the question. the senators english and did not feel that was necessary. it makes no sense let me go over it again. the doctor ford witnesses, mark judge, leland, and pj. and mrs. ramirez. that said, do it within a week, report back to the senate and will move forward. nbc news just ran this interview. >> hannity: not only was one

person to headset, she changed the story. she was saying that it was systematically -- every weekend. >> we can take care of this in about 30 seconds. what reasonable person would go to a party, witness drugging of women, gang rape and go back. i never tell anybody. >> hannity: and now she is saying, said that he put it in the punch. he was near the punch. what is nbc run this? >> there was an anonymous letter received by cory gardner, the senator from colorado with no return address, just a letter. it accused brett kavanaugh of assaulting somebody in a restaurant in 1998 in colorado. cory handed to the committee and somebody on the democratic side leaked that a letter. i got on the nbc nightly news.

the fourth allegation. >> hannity: the fifth and rhode island. >> to think nbc would have done that if it was a democratic male nominee? all i can say is that the journalist integrity has been destroyed over this case. >> hannity: all right. it is a very tight margin in the senate. >> any of jeff flake. >> hannity: who knows what jeff flake is saying. who knows. let me ask you this, you fall one vote short. >> number one, i don't think we will. i will tell you why, i don't think we will find anything new from the supplement on the fbi investigation to take jeff from yes, to know. i think the two senators want to make sure that the fbi did their homework, they checked the committee's work. but her work was good. i think that is what this is all about.

we're not expanding at all this crazy stuff. now, what would happen if something really weird did occur. we are one vote short. here's what i would do, i would appeal the verdict to the ballot box. this good man should not be destroyed if you legitimize this process by one vote short. we will be on to the next person. i would hate to be the next person nominated. i would feel horrible that we destroyed brett kavanaugh. what would i do? i would renominate him and i would take this case to the american people and voters in indiana and missouri and north dakota and other places where trump one saying who he would nominate if he got president and see if voters want to appeal the verdict. >> hannity: you are saying if you fall one vote short, you are saying that i would appeal the case. for this election? >> the president should renomin?

>> one you would be legitimizing destruction of a horrible person, i mean a horrible process at a good prop mike person. >> hannity: this would be a referendum? >> this would be an appeal from a political body to the people who put us here and see if these trump states that elected president trump would do exactly what he is doing on cutting taxes. if they are okay with the decision of their senator, i don't think we will get there. i think we will get 50 plus but if we fell one vote short for the good of the nation, i would appeal this to the people of the country and let them have a say. >> hannity: senator, thank you for being with us. newt gingrich, a lot more straight ahead from d.c. ♪

we have read all of the inconsistencies of professor ford's story and no cooperation there. we getting rid of due process and presumption of innocence no? >> obviously this isn't a criminal proceeding. as jonathan starley said, it is a tradition that people who are accused of these kinds of activities should get a presumption of innocence. the accuser should have two produce evidence or credible evidence. i don't deny this sincerity of dr. ford. it seems like this has traveled and there are some inconsistencies in her testimony. my quarrel isn't with dr. ford who i believe is in good faith. my quarrels with the democrats were lying in wait to ambush any nominee who is a

constitutionalist because they want judges on the supreme court, justices, who would legislate their political liberal agenda. it is horrendous. my real thrust here is for feckless conservatives, feckless republicans to realize why president trump is so popular and it is because a feckless conservatism isn't . we are in a struggle for the future of this country and the democrats are relentlessly pursuing their agenda. they will do anything they can to thwart president trump's appointments. this idea that they are doing this to find the facts is just ridiculous. >> hannity: let me bring in michelle. the problem here is guilt by accusation. i've been very critical, michelle eubank of the republican party. they took this with the proper

seriousness that this topic deserves. they were very professional as they should have been with professor ford. if she identifies an eye witness and eyewitness contradicts what she says, that is just problematic. without saying anything about her personally at all. we cannot assume that people are guilty knowing that this is a tactic that is used in supreme court nominations and in political campaigns, often by people who don't care about the truth. >> the radical and extreme left, particularly radical feminists exploit the fact that republicans act in good faith. we have to stop tiptoeing around this. timing, matter, motive and manner all are important in judging the credibility and the strength of these kinds of accusations. every day in america, innocence men of all races, backgrounds,

socioeconomic status are falsely accused of rape and they can never get their names back. it takes five, ten, 15 years. whatever civil sediment that they can finally win after losing their freedom and losing their lives and reputations, it can never compensate for the loss, the devastating loss that they and their family software. is why, rape is a serious crime but so is long about it. until there is criminal liability for it this will keep happening over and over again. >> hannity: in every case there are inconsistencies. every case there is no cooperation. the people that they say where there which happened on nbc news tonight. let me ask you both this, lindsey graham had a pretty good idea. i think he was suggesting tonight that if the democrats if republicans fall short here.

and if they go with the democrats, he is basically saying, let the american people vote on this very topic and basically let president trump renominate if you will judge brett kavanaugh. david, do you like that idea? >> i do like that idea. it depends on what the prolonged investigation ensues. what if he appoint someone else. if he gets taken down and he appoint someone else, it is like blood to a shark. it will be a feeding frenzy, they will be encouraged by this ambush. they will do it again. like michelle said. >> this is an ex-potential crisis and every time that voters have a chance to weigh in on it at the ballot box they absolutely should do that. it could happen to you next and we don't draw the line right now, it is going to go to a

social justice mob, not just to go after high nominees but your father, your grandfather, your uncle, your son. >> hannity: no cooperation, inconsistencies, very troubling. no due process, this is scary. thank you both for being with us. david, tomorrow i will put your article on fox news. it is amazing, that is one short word. we come back in with the latest on the fbi investigation. newt gingrich joins us from our nations capitals be continued. we are right here in the middle of the sewer where it is all happening. we are so happy you are joining us. ♪ i think we can do better. change is hard. try to keep an open mind. come on, dad. this is for me, son?

president trump is pushing back on what he essentially is: fake news. the idea that there are various reports that he has restricted the fbi probe of judge kavanaugh. he said absolutely not. that the fbi is moving quickly and intensively and that he is staying out of the way. they started their work friday after the senate compromised in the presence how they work through the weekend. in fact lender short time ago that brett kavanaugh has her talk to the fbi, his lawyer said the vets completed that. he is already said he doesn't member anything about dr. ford's obligations. the senate deal by jeff flake and chris led to a one-week pause. sticky focus on what is called current and credible allegations like the charge from dr. ford. not nuance with a deadline for the fbi this upcoming friday. he cracked the door open to expanding missing he did not control new allegations. sure enough other unverified charges have been popping up. a story quoting a former yelp classmates and that he was a violent drunk. the white house releasing long

statements from two of his classmates and that it is grossly untrue. republican mitch mcconnell trying to go to the goalpost be on friday as can keep investigating brett kavanaugh. blumenthal suggests they should go on longer. he falsely charged the white house say they are micromanaging the white fbi. he said that is not true. he was with his head wants in terms of this playing out. enough that he lied about his service and vietnam. >> hannity: ed henry joining us now with a reaction, the author of "the new york times" best seller, trumps america, the truth about our nation. former speaker of the house, newt gingrich. and every case, tonight was glaring in this client of his. no cooperation from the very people that they said would cooperate. >> yes. i will take you up from 30

seconds away from this. all of us should recognize the last 24 hours president trump is the one with an enormous victory with canada and mexico. in the middle of all this noise. big things are happening to create a lot of new jobs, to keep the economy going. the president is delivering and he is getting results. >> hannity: it is not insignificant. this to me as a real threat. one of the foundational principles we share, all of us. this is why i say does not republican or democrat. >> here's what i don't understand come i haven't had this in a long time. they talk about this deal that he made company give up nothing. republican sometimes have this passion for being stupid. flake got nothing out of that, nothing. plays this game. let me see i can rip you off again. didn't he says, would you please rip me off a little bit more? there is a reason people get fed up with the stuff.

lindsey graham we had an a while ago is the most effective guy on the judiciary committee. he told the truth. i think we as the american people have to stand up and say they don't want a country that is dominated by these kinds of people. i think it has a really serious threat. >> hannity: what did you think of his idea that if they fall short, the should be a election again question work on this issue? >> i think it is a good idea. >> hannity: and the president would renominate? >> tucker: i think it is a good idea. the alabama senator who supposedly not a liberal does come out to work with the left, jo donnelly represented the vice president's home state, who will vote with the left. you have high camp in the state which republicans have carried a 16 out of the last 17 presidential campaigns. they will probably wood for the left. we have 15 out of 17. i think imagine is going to vote for brett kavanaugh. i tell you what, if he doesn't

vote for brett kavanaugh, they are definitely should bring brett kavanaugh back up because after the election, mansion will have disappeared. >> hannity: one of the problems we have gotten to use to, i warn my audience every two or three years. racist, sexist, homophobes, islam hopes, killed children and killed grandma. i watched you go through this. i was there. i saw it all. there is a certain embracing of slander now. it doesn't matter. it doesn't matter whose family is hearing this. it doesn't matter what they are saying. >> they score points with their crazed french that is people are saying. this election is fall is about two americas. in america that thinks bullying you at a restaurant, pulling you in an elevator, harassing you,

destroying you, smearing you, shaming you in front of your children is fine because they are morally impure. >> hannity: i never hear a single positive agenda item that is going to benefit the american people from the democrats. this is what i hear, they want to impeach trump they want and bliss investigations, they want to keep obamacare which is been a disaster. they want to get rid of i.c.e and open borders. they want the crumbs back. they want the tax cuts back. they want them back. how do republicans defeat history and they said that it is only happen through tabs in the last 100 years. the party gets the power of the white house. and then hold onto power and the midterms. >> the same way we wanted 2016. we get more votes where it matters. the fact is, i will go out on a limb, i think election night this year will be worse than

2016. i think there's going to be a shock. the democratic party for example, can reduce the candidate for california wants to have government run health care to pay for health care for illegal immigrants. >> hannity: 10 million. >> that is this year. when workers go to california, and every person get sick on the planet will be told to go to california appear they want to take care of you. i think those kinds of policies are so unsustainable. >> hannity: by the way, the most indicator is that we want a seat in south texas. we have not had it 139 years, 53% hispanic in in a moment to limit the democrats favor tax. abortions, they just left. they said we are not with you. >> hannity: if this doesn't awaken the pace of the conservative movement for the
