>> n/a shirtless on a horse? >> martha: no, no. nice trip back to the 80s. we'll see you back here tomorrow night at 7:00, tucker is up nex next. ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." just when you thought hillary clinton lost the last presidential election you realize nobody told her that. this afternoon, she weighed in on the brett kavanaugh hearings, here's part of what she said. >> brett kavanaugh said that the political hit job directed at him was being done on behalf of the clintons among other people. your response? [laughs] >> tucker: that laugh, it haunts your dreams. we'll have more on that and what it means because it is
5:01 pm
revealing. i do investigation reveals who exactly is funding many of the protesters you've seen scream at republicans in public. you probably won't be surprised but we have confirmation tonigh tonight. when the senate decided to delay brett kavanaugh's confirmation vote for a week in order to enable an fbi investigation, everyone who was not jeff flake understood the point of it. the investigation itself was irrelevant. for democrats the only purpose was to buy time so that new people, some of this anonymously could make allegations against kavanaugh. that's exactly what happened and we've been the first to scoff at some of these claims because of some of them frivolous, some of them absurd. tonight we must tell you a new and troubling story has emerged that could alter the trajectory of not simply the kavanaugh nomination but the history of this country. it's a story of a young man outwardly respectable but so morally distorted within, so addled by chronic dependency on draft beer, the witnesses say he
5:02 pm
committed a particularly heinous form of assault in a public place. this man, this monster in human form once taught that ice cube at someone in a bar. an ice cube, the perfect weapon. in solid form, deadly. and then within hours it melts and evaporates into the air, all physical evidence turns to vapo vapor. there are no fingerprints, it is diabolical, there perfect crime. from a constitutional standpoint, it is disqualifying. we'll concede we missed the significance of this story at first but the other networks were on a too long before we were, watch their coverage. >> documents show that brett kavanaugh through ice in someone's face >> through ice in someone's face. >> accused him of throwing ice. >> the nominee through ice on him. >> accused him of throwing ice on him for some unknown reason. >> tucker: ice gate. the founders and framers of the
5:03 pm
constitution anticipated this very moment. article three, in words well known to every first-year law student, unequivocal on the subject. whoever shall throw ice in a tavern is disqualified from service in the federal judiciary." a former year el student who overlapped with brett kavanaugh in school, has contacted the fbi with a new outrage. one time at a frat party, some fraternity brothers hired a to put on some kind of show. what does this have to do with brett kavanaugh? as he concedes, nothing. i can't say for certain that he was present in the frat house. and yet, this is the critical part of this story. brett kavanaugh may have been in the state of connecticut when this happened. the very same state at the very
5:04 pm
same time that people in a fraternity house were doing things that he didn't like. need we say more? totally and utterly disqualifying. still confused? watch cnn they will explain. julie swetnick claims that 37 years ago for some reason she went to ten gang rate parties in a row and that brett kavanaugh may have been at some of them. what did he do at these parties? julie swetnick signed a sworn statement that brett kavanaugh and friends added drugs and alcohol to the punch. that's a serious charge but as swetnick explained in a televised interview, she didn't mean it. >> i saw him around the punch -- i don't know what he did. i saw him buy them. spay what you've heard democrats talk a lot recently about how he
5:05 pm
may have lied under oath. there is now quite a bit of evidence that julie swetnick just did. democrats don't care, they aren't interested in finding out because whatever works, power is the point. they should care, sexual assault is a horrifying crime no matter who commits it, all decent people understand that. false claims trivialize the offense and there have been a number of widely publicized false claims over the past 15 years. they undermined the many assault victims who are telling the truth. they make the search for justice seemed political and worst of all, they are making the rest of us nearly as cynical as professional democrats already are. mollie hemingway is a senior editor of the federalist and she joins us tonight. ice cube gate, is this one of those moments looking back on it 15 years from now we are going to cringe in embarrassment that adults with college degrees could have taken something like
5:06 pm
this seriously? >> i will hope we look back on this and cringe but i'm worried this is the direction things were going and this type of attack will be used to discredit any one the media feels is a political enemy. ice gate is a ridiculous story and i want to clarify the claim is that he may or may not have thrown ice which is even more ridiculous. to make this be a big explosive expose is ridiculous but all of them have been increasingly ridiculous. none of them have had supporting evidence. this is a very dangerous path to go down and i'm worried unless people take a strong stand against this kind of reporting end of this type of media campaign where you throw as many stories out there as possible, never mind that they are uncorroborated, unsubstantiated or patently ridiculous that they will continue in the future. >> tucker: this is an asymmetrical event. on one side you have people who are willing to do anything and
5:07 pm
lie about it. "the washington post" a purely political operation writes stories for their political effect, that's the point. republicans are blank by a set of rules devised in the 18th century and a very literal. there's a story we must take it seriously. at what point do republicans say this is a lie, i'm not playing along. >> there's a difference between joining with them and attack people based on what they did but also, you don't have to put up with it or go along with it or treat these things as sane. a lot of these allegations should never have been promulgated by the media. people are saying we put this person on air so we can all see she is ridiculous. you can see some of these allegations are ridiculous when you show light on them but there should be a basic standard. this is a human being torn apart through this process.
5:08 pm
at the same time they are putting forth stories that are ridiculous on their own. there are a lot of problems overall. >> tucker: final question, why does it fall to lindsey graham of all people to be the only member of the united states senate to say that out loud? are there no other members who feel an obligation to protect their voters and protect the country from falling into a kind of mob rule situation? >> i think it's a frustrated moment, they see what's going on, they know it's wrong. so many people they expect to be leaders in washington, d.c., are behaving as if what's going on is completely acceptable. more people than lindsey graham should be standing up and saying halt the madness, this is a real family, this is a real man and this is a real country that has a standards and we are not living up to them. >> tucker: normal people would like to be protected from this stuff. thank you very much. senator jeff flake said he was going to vote one way than he was screamed out in an elevator
5:09 pm
by a protester and immediately changed his opinion. that works and that's why other lawmakers are now being targeted by protesters. guess who's funding them? the president is speaking today in mississippi, will monitor that speech and if news breaks will be there immediately. >> president trump: a person that everybody thought at the highest level on both sides, someday he will be a supreme court judge. ♪ make-overs. then at your next meeting, set your seat height to its maximum level.

5:14 pm
>> the left has gone completely crazy. they tried to destroy judge kavanaugh, that's the modern-day left. i said this the other day to a group i was addressing, they applaud colin kaepernick when he disrespects the flag and they cheer on maxine waters when nature on people to harass republicans like what happened to senator flake. this is just the left. i think americans see through this and that's why so many folks across our district want judge kavanaugh to be on the court and know he deserves to be on the court. >> tucker: it's weird to see this from a nonprofit in washington. you think of them as producing backgrounder and helping formulate policy it's impossible to imagine the heritage foundation saying to employees go to national airport and scream at mazie hirono, is that a legitimate use of a nonprofit?
5:15 pm
>> that's the left today. two days after maxine waters said go harass people, we got the treatment. you and i would never do that to someone at a restaurant or some public event but the left now thinks that's appropriate because they applaud cap her con kaepernick. here's the left and all of their craziness and look at the record under president trump's leadership in the last 20 months. frame it up like that. if we do that i think we can win. lowest unemployment in 20 years, taxes have been cut regulation, gore such already there. the embassy is in jerusalem the hostages have been returned from north korea. i think we can win particularly when you demonstrate here is what the radical left is up to in this country. that is what this election is about. >> tucker: for those of us who
5:16 pm
are worried if this is accelerating into a scary place has anyone thought about going over to maxine waters office i get we disagree but please don't encourage a physical confrontation or violence because that's dangerous. >> i don't know if that has been done but i appreciate liberals who come from a different perspective. i was good friends with dennis kucinich, a friend of mine and we agreed on so many first amendment issues, fourth amendment, civil liberties, we can work together. they don't seem to be where he was. that is a scary thing for this country and i know you know that and it's so important you keep talking about this. >> tucker: jim jordan of ohio. we want to understand the political ramifications of all of this, obviously she hosts the daily briefing every day at 2:00 and she's a star of the five. what is the political effect of the kavanaugh saga?
5:17 pm
>> we'll see what happens. it is high-stakes and everyone is super engaged. what would be the october surprise? i think kavanaugh is it. for republicans, they can benefit in certain places in states like north dakota, it's going to be hard for her to come back from that. missouri, indiana, west virgini west virginia, they can help democrats in house seats and it might help they are racing really tight in senate races like new jersey and florida, may be nevada and arizona. i think from that perspective we don't know. there are three sets of parties -- call it the kavanaugh blast zone. they aren't happy about it. the first ones would be red state democrats who face voters in five weeks, people like heidi heitkamp, joe manchin, joe
5:18 pm
donnelly. all of them are in states where polling shows that republicans strongly support the president, strongly support judge kavanaugh and one of the number one reasons they went to vote was the supreme court. the second one would be the democratic senators who want to run for president but aren't on the judiciary committee. right now kamala harris and cory booker are having all the fun. elizabeth warren has to figure out a way to stay in the news. this past weekend she said i might run for president after three weeks ago saying of course i can't run for president. the biggest loser probably will be joe biden who actually could be one of their best candidates against donald trump in 2020 but because of this and if you go back to the anita hill hearings he is going to have such a heel to overcome that they might have just shot him in the foot. >> tucker: if you think if it hadn't been for this he would've been a legitimate contender. >> time i guess everything.
5:19 pm
name i.d. is super important and he has the highest name i.d. of any democrat. he's one of those democrats that might be able to bring back blue-collar workers that you write about in your great new book. that you want to blog on your own show. >> tucker: i thought he had a shot in 1988. >> that's why president trump calls him 1% joe. >> tucker: great to see you. the aclu use to stand up for civil liberties, due process is the most important thing. not anymore, they say kavanaugh is guilty without trial. if news occurs at the president's speech we will be there in a flash.

because as you know the revolution always consumes the people who started it. senate challenger beto o'rourke is running against ted cruz in texas is now apologizing, groveling in a craven way for what the misdeed to? and it turns out he wrote a musical review for the columbia student newspaper, he was known as robert. he was fresh out of boarding school. in that piece he says that the will rogers folly had actresses who were chosen for their phenomenally large and tight. he's obviously evil. we would ignore this as dumb and irrelevant but it says somewhere in the constitution i think at msnbc that dumb college essays categorically disqualify you from serving in the u.s. senate. at the very minimum we ought to have an fbi investigation to see if he ever admitted to not liking toni morrison novels.
5:25 pm
maybe two fbi investigations because we need to know. the aclu has been around a long time and it's built its reputation defending free speech and especially due process especially for the politically unpopular. it saved the lives at the beginning of its existence, that's the whole point of the aclu. those principles are being washed away in the tide of derangement in the aclu has decided to join that tide. they are running an ad declaring him guilty without the need for a trial or any evidence, watch. >> we seen this before, denials from powerful men. >> i did not have relations with that woman. >> i've never seen anything like this. >> i categorically and unequivocally denied the allegation against me. >> america is watching and as we choose a lifetime seat on our highest court, integrity matters and we cannot have any doubt.
5:26 pm
senator gardner, oppose the confirmation of judge kavanaugh. >> tucker: chris hahn is a radio show host, probably a donor to the aclu when he joins us tonight, it's great to see you. you are pushing late middle age, you've been around long enough to know what the aclu has been doing. >> late? >> tucker: whatever. you're probably over 30. you've watched the aclu over time and you know they were founded to defend free speech and due process, a man is guilty on the basis of no evidence, he shares some resemblance to two other guys who are probably guilty. it's the opposite of due process, why is the aclu doing this? >> they're not declaring him guilty, what we are trying to do
5:27 pm
and guilt or innocence is really not the issue. he's not on trial for his life he's applying for a job. we've got to ask the question, has he been truthful in that inquiry in the answer is no. i don't know for sure about the sexual assault allegation all that away i do believe dr. ford. >> tucker: before we get to what you think he specifically lied about i want to rewind second. you're saying that without finding someone guilty of anything it's okay to destroy his reputation to the point where he can't get a paying work and can't get the job that he was nominated for by the president of the united states. he just has to withdraw as a lecturer at harvard because his reputation has been so sullied. he hasn't been found guilty of anything, but that's okay with you because we aren't in a trial is that what you're saying? is that the new standard? >> what i'm saying is you have to ask the question is this man
5:28 pm
fit for a lifetime appointment that will never, ever face the voters, never face congress again. if you feel he hasn't been truthful to that committee, i will tell you, i don't think he was truthful. >> tucker: he's lied, but that's unprovable. if you feel in your heart -- if i feel in my heart that you're a child molester, can i say that on tv and see how it affects her family? >> i'm not trying to get a lifetime appointment on the bench of no one is accusing me of anything who did not come forward credibly. >> tucker: he's been accused of a lot of things, credibly is a subjective term. is it okay if you feel in your hearts that someone is guilty to
5:29 pm
systematically destroy him and his family and you're saying yes, it's so important. >> did you find dr. ford credible? >> tucker: i'm not sure, she wasn't asked real questions. for example when did you recall this. did you tell your therapist about of? that's a basic question nobody asked. >> you're smart enough to know that traumatic experience -- >> tucker: i don't know what i know, that's why i asked real questions on my show. >> i found her credible and i think you found her credible to too. he lied about what the club was, he lied to congress >> tucker: you're saying he lied about the ralph club? you lie about the ralph club and you're done, i feel that in my

remark but part of this larger dynamic that we've faced, i consider an extremist alt-left insurgency in america that is trying to topple this government with any means necessary and we see it from this bird docking strategy that they've got cornering senators and congressmen in elevators, this has been two years in the making. i didn't get to hear your earlier segments but all of the players here are the same ones that marched the day after president trump's inauguration, they are all funded by the open society foundation as you mentioned by billionaire george soros. unfortunately couldn't get to hear the mcclinton in office. for the last two years they have been empowered time and again at to help topple our government by any means necessary and this is disturbing.

i know the democrats think they are winning but sometimes falling feels like you're flying for a little while. i predict brett kavanaugh will be confirmed. they think he's a smoked turkey. i think you'll be confirmed and i think he'll be confirmed in the next week. >> tucker: are you alone and thinking that? >> i think there's some who doubt that we are winning, i'm not one of them. i also think the american people despite the fact that many in washington, d.c., believe they are much smarter than americans -- i think the american people most mainstream americans see right through thi this. and i hope they are motivated enough to go vote. you can't fix stupid but you can vote it out. >> tucker: this is a complex topic but i want to hear estimation because i think it's important.

you've introduced a new bill that targets banks that infringed on rights, can you sum that up? >> my bill would say general services administration cannot do business on behalf of the american taxpayer with any bank that decides to discriminate on awful business on the basis of social policy. citigroup and bank of america don't believe in the second amendment and they decided they won't do business with any businesses that sell automatic weapons, semiautomatic weapons, or handguns. their copy of the bill of rights goes from 1 to 3. my copy includes the second amendment and when they almost went broke in 2008 at the american taxpayer had to give citigroup $475 billion in bank of america $336 billion, i

don't recall citigroup or bank of america saying which of you believes in the second amendment? i don't want your money. they took everybody's money. we don't need to read banks or blue banks, we need safe banks and i have a feeling that -- if they think they have too much time on their hands so they need to make social policy instead of congress, maybe they ought to look at their balance sheets. >> tucker: it's hard to state how wonderful i think that is. thanks so much, we are going to be watching that for sure. we've got a little bit of news right after the break we hope you will stick with us. until then, we'll be right back. ♪ are you okay? even when i was there, i never knew when my symptoms would keep us apart.

within a few days i went from knowing almost nothing to holy crow, i'm related to george washington. this is my cousin george. discover your story. start searching for free now at ancestry.com but let's be honest, nobody likes dealing with insurance. which is why esurance hired me, dennis quaid, as their spokesperson because apparently, i'm highly likable. see, they know it's confusing. i literally have no idea what i'm getting, dennis quaid. that's why they're making it simple, man in cafe. and more affordable. thank you, dennis quaid. you're welcome. that's a prop apple. i'd tell you more, but i only have 30 seconds. so here's a dramatic shot of their tagline so you'll remember it. esurance. it's surprisingly painless. >> tucker: we told you a lot about amazon this program, in particular how jeff bezos, the world's richest man has kept many of his workers in poverty.

>> nearly one in three amazon employees in arizona for example was on food stamps last year. taxpayers shouldn't be making up the difference for the employees of the single richest man in the world. i find it disgusting and wrong and actually incomprehensible that he would have people working for him that are so poor i'm paying for their food stamp stamps. >> tucker: it is disgusting and wrong and income principle, so much so that amazon didn't even defend itself because there was no doing that. they instead responded today to our surprise. they announced that all its employees, whether full-time or part-time or seasonal will now receive a minimum wage of $15 an hour, double the federal minimum wage. in a statement he said we listened to our critics, thought hard about what we wanted to do and then decided we wanted to lead. amazon still constitutes one of the most dangerous concentrations of power in the world. we are still concerned about that, but they did the right thing here for whatever reason. at the very least they still care about public relations.

♪ >> tucker: what you do about the craziness in developing your world? you can vote but you can also understand why it's happening. my book out today explained the whole story. pick it up. we will see you tomorrow. >> sean: congrats on the book, welcome to "hannity," we are in washington, d.c. this is a fox news alert. breaking right now, fox news has now learned that the fbi supplemental report about judge kavanaugh could be delivered to the white house as soon as tomorrow. this couldn't come at a more important time. dems announcing they don't want to make public. that's interesting. now everything we hold dear as americans now weighs in the balance as desperate democrats, people on the left, are trying to unload even more insanity tonight on brett kavanaugh, zero consideration of his family. the looming confirmation of judge brett kavanaugh represents so much more than just one seat on the u.s. supreme court. where we end up as
