mm. yeah, they say if you blanch it it's better, but that seems like a lot of work. no hidden fees. no platform fees. no trade minimums. and yes, it's all at one low price. td ameritrade. ♪ "the story" is tomorrow night. tucker is next. ♪ >> tucker: good evening. welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." hurricane michael is on shore pounding parts of florida and georgia. it hit the panhandle as a strong category 4 hurricane. only 1 mile peran hour shy of a category 5. it's a dangerous storm. more dangerous than we realized. camera crews getting a close look at the damage it has done. we'll show that to you in just a minute. first, to the political and media news. there's a lot of it. you may have noticed the remarkable similarities between the democratic party's daily talking points and a lot of the political coverage that you see from news outlets.

often these two things are identical. even the fabled rockettes at radio city music hall are not as in sync. everyone in this media political chorusal line is putting on precisely the same performance. consider the question of angry left-wing mobs. they seem to be everywhere all of a sudden. they're yelling at republicans in restaurants and airports, pounding on the front doors of the supreme court. they're blocking intersections, threatening passersby on the street. this is the youth wing of the democratic party. yet the democratic party's position is they do not exist, there's no mobs. ignore your lying eyes. not surprisingly, the media is saying exactly the same thing. watch this orwellian exchange from cnn yesterday. >> when you see people like ted cruz getting chased out of restaurants by a mob -- >> oh, you're not going to use the mob word here. >> it's totally a mob. it's without a doubt. there's no other word for it.

>> mad. a mob? stop, stop. >> tucker: so a mob is not a mob because the word mob is not allowed on television anymore. but wait. aren't journalists supposed to be the champions of clear language? not when euphemism better serves their political goals. if banning words helps the democratic party, they're doing it. cnn did the same segment later in the day, repetition beingic e heart of propaganda. watch it again. >> is it mob behavior? no. >> thank you. i >> it's people upset and angryno with the way the country is going and the policy. in the constitution, you can protest whenever and wherever you want. doesn't tell you you can't do i, in a restaurant or on a football field or doesn't tell you you can't do it on a cable news show. you can do it wherever you want. to call people mobs is beyond d

the pale. >> tucker: did you hear that? what happened to ted cruz is not mob behavior. by the way, it's beyond the pale for you to suggest otherwise. what happened to cruz is not so different from the love-ins thap you seen in the documentaries about the 1960s. doe-eyed women in indian print dresses passing out flowers to soldiers. we have the cruz tape. watch. >> tucker: okay. it wasn't quite as restrained or calm as we remembered. so let's pause for a second and consider how this story could be told differently. same facts, different spin. a senator named rafael cruz is having dinner with his wife in washington. a group of screaming predominantly white political activists surround the couple and yell at them until they leave the building. that actually happened. let's say this hypothetical

rafael cruz was a liberal t democrat and not a republican from texas. you think don lemon and his cnn anchors would call it a protest? or could the word mob come up and white supremacy and nazi? let you think about that. this is not the first time we've seen this variety of dishonesty. it was don lemon that just last august came rushing to the defense of the emerging democratic constituency, antifa. >> it says it in the name, anti-fascism. no organization is perfect. there was some violence and no one condones the violence but there were different reasons for antifa and these neo-nazis to be there. one, racist fascists, the other group fighting racist fascists. there's a distinction there. >> tucker: yeah, dumbo. anti-fascist. it's in the name.

there's a distinction there. just as there was a distinction with ferguson, baltimore and other cities that have gone up in flames. a riot wasn't a riot. it was a protest. what you're hearing on cable news isn't news. it's lying. at least eric holder is brave enough to speak the truth without euphemism. holder isn't some dopey cnn anchor taking orders from his superiors. he's the former attorney general of the united states.or the country's chief law enforcement officer. holder doesn't need to pretend a mob isn't a mob. he's running for president as a democrat. his job is to assemble mobs and send them out on the democratic party. that's what he did today. watch this. t >> michelle says when they go low, we go high. no. no. when they go low, we kick them. >> tucker: kick them! yeah. why not shoot them or burn them? good question. why not?

the former attorney general has given his permission to get physical. don't be surprised when they obey. rob is an attorney. he joins us on the set. thanks for coming on. >> thanks for having me, tucker. >> tucker: so kick them, says the former chief law enforcement officer of the united states. >> he's a desperate person running for president in 2020 that doesn't have a good chance of winning. instead of concentrating of the radical statements on the far fringes of political society, let's look at the 90% of people in the middle that are not interested in antifa, mobbing or rioting or looting and want better health care and education and who want a political system that works, this is the response for trump where democrats need to fight back. get muscular. t they want a boxer in there to erx with trump. what we need is somebody, as george bush said a uniter, not a divider. >> tucker: i couldn't agree with you more. the 90% that thinks this is a distraction is the people we're trying to appeal to.st

i agree with you completely. i disagree when you describe eric holder, the former attorney general, as a fringe political character. he's at the center of our establishment. he lived in my neighborhood. he's the former attorney general. this is not some cortez woman from brooklyn. this is eric holder. >> what we saw in the senate hearings were senators wanting to make a name for themselves. eric holder trying to get in the 2020 race. michael avenatti running around to get into the 2020 race. instead of fringel candidates, let's look at people that have actual plans, that have actual policy proposals that will help middle class people. t >> tucker: i agree. >> you live in a neighborhood of eric holder. i live in georgia where we don't have the farhe -- people, you grow up together, you watch sec football, you go hunting and fishing and drink beer and you end up on different sides of the political aisle but you have places in the middle where you agree. the problem is we take the more fast left person and the mostt

far right person and say they represent most of america. >> tucker: i literally couldn't -- i'm surprised i'm saying this. i couldn't agree with you more. my concern is that we're entering a vortex where you do have people encouraging violence. the former attorney general just did on camera. once that begins, it's almost impossible for people to think clearly. people are getting radical. surrounding people, making them leave restaurants -- i've never seen anything like that in 49pe years here. >> you have to have i conversations across enemy lines. >> tucker: of course, i couldn't agree more. but shouldn't someone who has moral authority in the eyes of people to pay attention to politics, how about barack obama who employed this guy for years stand up and say kick people? what? no. stop that talk. what is this?

>> he even quoted michelle who said when you go low, you go high. >> tucker: it's a fair question. where are the obamas? >> that is where the majority of voters are at. i most voters don't want to be out here fighting random nazis -- >> i agree completely. >> you have to have president trump giving leadership, not saying drag the sob off the field. knock them in the head or whatever. let's have a civil conversation on both sides. >> tucker: i couldn't agree more. and i hate that talk no matter where it comes from. but right now, you had the clearest possible example of it and you have a clear solution. so i didn't care for president obama's policies at all. i thought they hurt the country. personally he's revered by a lot of americans to this day. so is his wife. they could stand up and say we like eric holder but we want to be totally clear that violence is never an acceptable option in the united states as a way to express political differences. that might prevent what i see coming and you see coming that is being spurred on by people like that. >> if you look at the history of 19th century europe, you saw the same political rhetoric.

ethnicism, nationalism. people retreating to their corners, demonizing the people on the other side. instead of doing that, the former president and the former first lady do not want to put their finger on the scale. you'll see that from the voters in the early primary states. >> tucker: and i hope you're right.ma i think the democrats are really hurting themselves. if they made a middle class economic argument, they would rule forever. anybody who does that wins. that hasn't occurred. why not, let's stop this from going to crazy town. >> like i said, what people have to do is go to the outside of the echo chamber. don'tde just campaign to people who like you. tucker, let's take this show and do it at an hbcu. a in the middle of chicago. >> tucker: this is the only show i'm aware of that invites people to make a counter case. i believe in that as a core belief. and i mean it.

obviously i mean it. i'm worried that we're moving towards violence. that is the worst thing always. >> we have to have these conversations where people can agree on things and handle that first.e >> tucker: i agree with you. thanks very much. >> thank you. >> tucker: dana loesch joins us tonight. are you as worried as i am about where this is going? >> tucker, good to be with you. i am. i share the same concerns that you do. i agreed with your guest as well. it does seem that common ground is really difficult to be found lately. any attempt to find any common ground is immediately attacked by those fringes. the thing that i keep hearing so much so often from individuals who are on the left is a way to justify this, they position their defense of antifa or some of these mobs and that's what they were, mobs chasing the cruzes out of a restaurant andnd mobs that are doxxing republican senators and their families.

mobs chasing people like senator mcconnell and airportt. they say trump says this orab trump says that, which we all agree, we need to be able to have civil conversation. to think this started with the administration is a silly argument. i can remember in the tea party rallies where we would be anywhere with people bringing portable coolers full of juice boxes and lawn chairs. we were all completely derided. we were called every name in the book. this didn't start with the trump administration. >> tucker: no, it didn't. and yet we're at a new place, a place that i don't think we've been in 50 years anyway at least. >> i agree. >> tucker: we're on the cusp of something horrible.y there's widely respected people in this country. i don't see my job as ginning up partisan rage. getting people to act out in violence. that's a totally irresponsible thing topa do.

where are the people on the left making that -- there are responsible people on the left. why are they cowardly and can't speak up now? >> true. heidi heitkamp is one of them. she condemned hillary clinton when hillary clinton said that they're not going to be civil so long as they don't have power. there needs to be more like heidi heitkamp. s i wonder if it's not too late. i sincerely hope it's not. i hope we can get back to a place where we can exchangely ideas. i feel like, you know, you called them the other night these individuals out there, the antifa and what we saw in portland, shock troops. that's a great way to put it. normally it's always been the party establishment, the leadership that has jerkeded on the leash of the shock troops. they use them to get voter turnout. it's a tactic. we see it every election. don't you think it's going the other way now? the shock troops are jerking the leash of -- i >> tucker: totally, this is way it happens. you think you're using the energy of the crazies to achieve your goals. you wake up and the crazies are defining your agenda for you.

they're in charge. it's always the same. dana, thank you for that. >> thank you. good to see you, tucker. >> tucker: wanted to tell you about hurricane michael, which turned out to be a little bigger than many predicted. it's on shore and it's ravaging northwest florida. will nundley is in panama city. what is it like, will? >> even though the hurricane has long made landfall, we have a relentless wind. as we have begun to survey damage, this by and large is h what we'rent seeing. panama city beach has escape add lot of major damage. there's still damage to speak of. we've seen roofs off of buildings and siding and facade damage. cell service very spotty. a lot of damage to cell towers a and communication towers. power is out for us on the front beach road. there is a strict curfew in

place. have seen bay county authorities making patrols. if anyone is caught outside past dark, right now they're going to be arrested on site. they are trying to curb looting before it becomes a problem. we have a sustained wind. the rain has backed off the past couple hours but there is a tedious process of going street by street in panama city beach make sure the debris is out of the road and crews can access with a need to reach and that everyone is okay. back to you. >> tucker: thanks, will. the storm came out of nowhere. stay with fox for more coverage of hurricane michael and what it's doing to the southeastern united states. we'll check in on other areas later in the hour. democrats have tried a new tact attacking people for the color of their skin. now they're attacking u.s. institutions as bigoted too. why are they doing that? dana perino joins us to explain after the break.

some moments can change everything. you can't always predict them, but you can game plan for them. for 150 years, generations of families have chosen pacific life for retirement and life insurance solutions to help them reach their goals. being ready for wherever life leads. that's the power of pacific. ask a financial advisor about pacific life. i get it all the time.

>> tucker: well, there's a new talking point on the left. we specialize in keeping track of >> tucker: well, there's a newyb talking point on the left. we specialize in keeping track of those. maybe you heard it. instead of calling people racist for voting for trump or supporting brett kavanaugh, that's still happening, people are calling the entireis electol college as itself racist somehow.ll alexandria ocasio-cortez called it "a shadow of slavery's power." it was the electoral college that got abraham lincoln elected.ct he didn't win the majority of the popular vote. he became president and ended slavery.

that doesn't make sense. you're hearing it anyway. why? what is the point of this? dana perino pays very close attention in between hosting "the daily briefing" and appearing on "the five" every day, and she joins us tonight. dana, what is this -- this comes to come out of nowhere. all of a sudden, everybody is against the electoral college. why? >> it comes in cycles. the last time i really remember hearing a lot about it was after the election of 2000, with democrats very bitter. look, some ways understandably, right? >> tucker: yeah, i agree. >> it comes down to the recount. the supreme court makes thatnd decision. you started to hear the drum beat, the democrats saying this is not fair to us. we win the popular vote. therefore, we should win the presidency. doesn't that just make sense? that's the way it should be. >> tucker: but wait a second. i didn't -- i'm not that old. i covered both of bill clinton's campaigns. he never won the popular vote. became president thanks to the electoral college twice. >> you could blame ross perot for that, if you were -- >> tucker: for sure.e.

no, that's true. that's what happened, of course. ross perot, third-party candidate. but still you had a guy that didn't win the majority and considered my most people, certainly me, as a legitimate president. why did that change? >> what you're seeing, president trump won the electoral college. didn't win the popular vote. hillary clinton repeats. she won the popular vote. that's not the contest. that's not the game. you have to win the electoral college. president trump went to states like wisconsin, michigan -- wisconsin being the biggest. had hillary clinton played the game a different way, if she had maybe tried to win the electoral college and the popular vote -- the thing is the founders really wanted our country to be a federalist system. they wanted the states to be diverse. they did give slightly more power to the smaller states, but they generally favored the mores populous states. what democrats did going forward, california, new york, florida, all of these big states

making the decisions that they want, like medicare for all. when some states like wyoming, north dakota, montana, kansas, south dakota stamp their feet and say no, the democrats think that that is unfair. so they want to change the rules of the game.e. the idea that it's racist is preposterous. you bring up the great point about abraham lincoln. i also just feel that it's democrats squawking because h they're struggling to find a message, they're struggling to find unity. they just want to blame the system. they give the appearance of one, not understanding our history, number 1. that's a problem. but number 2, not appreciating our country and how our founders set it up.m. >> tucker: that's right. they could just run on middle class economics.s. that always works. >> this is a big waste of time. in our lifetime, the electoral college is not going to change. in your grandchildren's lifetime, they might take another run at it. >> tucker: yeah. i pray for that. dana, thank you. great to see you tonight. >> thanks for having me.

>> tucker: just a few decades ago,o, california was the greatt state in the union. it wasn't close. everyone knew that. nobody makes that argument anymore. what happened there and does have it any lessons for the other states today? that's next. victor davis hanson on the set. of course, most people in washington would like the entire country to copy california. that's explained in "ship of fools." why? they're incompetent. they're in charge. that book reached number 1 on the best seller list. it bumped bob woodward out of the spot. thank you for that. you did that. we appreciate it. we'll be right back.k. excuse me... winner! that's a win. but it's not the only reason i switched. hi! geico has licensed agents who i can reach 24/7.

his family has been there for six generations in the same house. he joins us tonight. victor davis hanson, it's an honor to have you on the set after all these years of talking to you by by remote. so i just -- let's stand back t really quickly and ask the obvious question. how did the greatest state go to what it is now? >> it was a perfect storm. we had $3 trillion come in for capitalization of facebook google and apple and it convinced millions of people in that area where the money was concentrated -- hollywood, the big universities along the coast, that they were not subject to the ramifications of their own ideology. they could afford the dream and have all of these restrictions, greater regulations, green utopian ideas and it was always going to affect other peopleri mostly in the interior, but not always. housing went up because of the regulations. small businesses fled. taxes. we had the highest basket of gasoline sales and income taxes in the nine states. >> tucker: that doesn't make

sense. the taxes in saudi arabia are low because they have, like thee bay area -- >> there's other elements to this disaster. we had 10 to 15 million people who came across the southern border without legality, without english, without a high school diploma and not on a meritocratic basis.. so all of a sudden, california became a medieval society. it's like a keep. the coastal strip is the castle keep where the elite live, and everybody else serves them. the middle class has fled. we have one third of all welfarw recipients in the united states. 20% of the state lives below the poverty line. yet we have the most billionaires. so it's a premodern and it's a postmodern society when you pay taxes and you get schools 46th in the nation and infrastructure that forbes rated 49th. thank god for mississippi. >> tucker: arkansas used to say that. now it's california. so the rest of us and our viewers that don't live in california must be thinking okay, but what does that have to do with us? should we be worried about thisf

>> i think so.n' california gave us deukmejian, reagan, pete wilson, and it was sudden. it flipped suddenly toto a one-party state. that was this weird new combination of the democratic party. it's a pyramidal society. america's wealthy people are left wing now. they're very ultra wealthy and they have a subsidized poor on the bottom. that was the paradigm that overregulated, overtaxed and sent people out of the state. >> tucker: there's a question that i don't understand. let's say you're the 41-year-old multibillionaire who owns twitter. ten minutes away, people are dying of ods on the sidewalk. why don't you do something? carnegie would have. rockefeller would have. >> because you feel guilty about your wealth. so in the abstract, you can afford to be left wing and help the "poor" while your kids go to menlo park, sacred heart. walls don't work on the southern border but they sure work in atherton and hillsborough around your estate. so you have ways, with yourn power, wealth and influence, to navigate around the

ramifications of your own ideology. and that's what they do. >> tucker: you'd think they would want to help the people right outside their door. >> you would think so. you go to redwood city, the service area for silicon valley. poor mexican american people are living six and seven families to a house right under the noses of these people. so i don't think they're very liberal at all. >> tucker: no, they're not. they're not liberal at all. >> they ruined the state. >> tucker: it's so depressing. i'm so glad you're here with us. >> glad to be here. >> tucker: our viewers love you. >> thanks for having me. >> tucker: we have a fox news alert. we're continuing to follow hurricane michael ravaging the gulf coast of florida. phil keating is on the scene. what does it looks like, phil? >> looks like a muddy mess right now. this is apalachicola. we were 30 miles east of the eye, the dirty side of the storm. so the winds, the rains and the storm surge here this morning and afternoon, many hours of it, was an onslaught, a pummeling. it was hellacious.s.

the rain is gone. the system has moved up to georgia. the storm surge here was anywhere from 5 to 4 feet deep, maybe 6 feet deep. it subsided since 4:00?p.m. dramatically and a few inches, maybe a foot further down the street deep. but it's leaving a lot of mud left behind. you can see the buildings behind me that were damaged. this dumpster was picked up by the storm surge after thete hurricane went northbound and then the winds shifted, blew it over here, floating it into that building. probably destroying that building. so as soon as sunrise happens tomorrow, the curfew will be lifted for residents if theyso want to venture out.e the sheriff's department in franklin county has held off so far giving the green light for people to get out there becausei search and rescue teams will deploy in mass tomorrow morning on high profile vehicles as well as boats to try to assess the damage, see how catastrophic it

is, how many roads with impassible from downed power lines and trees and roads that are inaccessible. you cannot get out of this town right now. two ways out and both are closed off. everybody has to wait and see first how many people were o injured and perhaps killed. we have one confirmed fatality outside tallahassee where a tree fell on a house. >> tucker: thanks, phil. fell on a house. >> tucker: thanks, phil. we got more evidence that google represents a risk to americanho national security and to a very democratic institutions. we'll explain what we found after the break. minimums and fees. they seem to be the very foundation of your typical bank. capital one is anything but typical. that's why we designed capital one cafes.

you can get savings and checking accounts with no fees or minimums. and one of america's best savings rates. to top it off, you can open one from anywhere in 5 minutes. this isn't a typical bank. this is banking reimagined. what's in your wallet?

>> tucker: we've repeatedly

>> tucker: we've repeatedly sounded the alarm about google in a multifaceted threat, the threat that it poses to this country and our democracy. as part of our ongoing investigation, we want to bring you this.th google said they won't compete for a $10 billion pentagon project because it will conflict with corporate values. even as it abandons the u.s. military in a country that made it possible, google continues to help fascist china. apparently thats does not violae their corporate values to do things like working on the censored search engine that china's authoritarian regimesu continues to monitor and suppress the dissent from its own population. it also doesn't violate their corporate values to expand artificial intelligence research in china even though the chinese military is working hard to overtake the united states in artificial t intelligence. but there's more. google hoards more data than any other company in the world and

cannot be relied open to keep that data secure. your data. it emerged that google discovered a security hole in g its google plus platform but did not bother to inform users about it. and then the overriding matter of censorship, political censorship. in an 85-page internal memo, obtained by this show, google executives the discussed a european tradition of policing and censoring online speech for the sake of increasing revenues and furthering global expansion. when google decides to censor views it doesn't like, they will empower dave hogue, the design leader. after brett kavanaugh was confirmed, hogue tweeted "you are finished, g.o.p. you polished the final nail forr your own coffins. f you all to hell." google gave a typical

disingenuous statement saying not one of those words is true. not one of those words is true. and we prove that consistently. harmeet dillon is an attorney she joins us. thanks for coming on. tell me what your reaction is knowing all that you do about how google operates when you hear a statement like that, self-righteously lecturing us s about freedom of expression and openness. >> i'm glad that the public's attention is now being drawn toa what james and several other of my clients have known for some time that google talks out of both sides of its mouth. internally they crushes conservatives and punishes

dissent and also skews its search engines againstt conservatives and publicly it tells lawmakers, tells the public, tells regulators that they're not doing any of those things. that document that you talked about has been caught red-handed that yeah, of course we censor and it's good censorship and beneficially to do that as a business and for society as a whole. they are going to need to be held accountable and reconcile these irreconcilable positions. >> tucker: doesn't google have an exemption granted by congress where it pledges to knocked noa news organization. not edit content but be a pipeline through which information flows? they're clearly violating that agreement and congress is doing nothing about it because why? >> yeah, bingo. tucker, under communications decency act section 230, all of these big social media companies, twitter and others

have immunity. fox news can't label me or someone else dangerous and intense rest. it would be defamatory. google, twitter, facebook and others can and they do every day.y now they're acknowledging it privately, not publicly. they spread buckets of cash around capitol hill. it's effective. everybody looks the other way. it's protection money. >> tucker: they're lying.. i don't understand. it's simple. they have this exemption. we don't have it. news organizations don't have it. they have it. they're lying. nobody in congress does anything? i why is that not infuriating? >> it's outrageous. we need to hold them accountable. this is on both sides of the aisle. this could be a bilateral problem. the issue is they're relying on an outdated concept, the early stages of the internet that this protection was needed. that is long gone. >> tucker: exactly. >> the public needs protection from them. >> tucker: nicely put. >> the tables are turned. that's one thing that they're

concerned about losing that. the other is antitrust regulation. >> tucker: we're on that. we'll see you again, harmeet. nikki haley's departure from the trump administration was a surprise. who should replace her? details in a new book on your screen. ite's exclusive res, you get a strong repair that you can trust. plus, with most insurance a safelite repair is no cost to you. >> customer: really?! >> singers: safelite repair, safelite replace.

>> tucker: u.n. ambassador nikki haley surprised everybody in washington yesterday by announcing her resignation. she can keep a secret. we learned that.

ever since, a lot of talk about who ought to replace here. one of the names we heard most is dina powell. she was a white house adviser. she seems like a nice person. lots of people like her. is she the right person or the. the job? that's the question. she's worked on behalf of virtually every idea that president trump ran against inin his 2016 campaign. trump, you'll remember, said it was time for america to act on its own behalf and to avoid countless and counter productive wars. are those dina powell's views? they're not. she was a partner at goldman sachs.ll she was president of the foundation. she worked with the clinton foundation. they worked together on various goals most trump voters would find repugnant. the clinton global initiative event, powell shared the stage with bill clinton. they discussed howow to meet global challenges with corporate

solutions. powell is a close friend of valerie jarrett and arianna huffington. it's not guilt by association but you should know that. president trump is fighting to restrict immigration from dangerous countries but while working for the bush of administration, powell boasted 90% of student visas were being granted within a week even from students from countries that hated the united states. a major flaw in american diplomacy to the islamic world is that "we talk too much. we need to listen more." doesn't make her a bad person. makes are the kind of person george w. bush might appoint to u.n. ambassador. maybe she'll get the job anyway. you never know. the confirmation hearings ought to be interesting. we'll get to hear a lot more in greater detail about how goldman sachs actually works. that will be an education. we'll keep you posted. this is a fox news alert. hurricane michael slamming into the panhandle of florida right now. rick leventhal is in panama city, florida.

what do you see, rick? >> conditions have improved when we were in hurricane force winds for a lengthy amount of time. horrific downpours. the hurricane was 155 miles per hour when it hit the coast about 20 miles to our east. this is the kind of stuff that was flying through the air while were out here, recording live this afternoon and we saw quite a bit of damage around us, can probably see one of the utility poles behind us that snapped in half. there is a transformer down on the ground in some kind of emrinkler system. it's water spraying on ther. transformer. the lines are dead. this whole area as you can see is in the dark.hw this highway leads to the gulf coast, and the beach is about 2 miles down. there are a number of other utility poles down with power lines down on the street. it's one of the reasons why authorities put in a mandatory curfew to keep people off the streets and try to assess the

damage and try to get the power back on. we have one confirmed death in florida so far but the authorities are concerned that number could go up because about half the people were told to evacuate didn't. there've been some rescues. more could be ahead. >> tucker: rick leventhal live for us in panama city. thanks, rick. fox's coverage of hurricane michael will continue throughout the night. and when fewer people getgh married, more people are poor and unhappy. far fewer people in america aree getting married. why is that exactly? can anything be done about it? that's next. no matter who rides point, there are over 10,000 allstate agents riding sweep. call one today. are you in good hands?

when you rent from national... it's kind of like playing your own version of best ball. because here, you can choose any car in the aisle, even if it's a better car class than the one you reserved. so no matter what, you're guaranteed to have a perfect drive. [laughter] (vo) go national. go like a pro. see what i did there? >> tucker: why are so many young people so angry? it's mostly >> wire so, because so many young people so angry? a young breadwinner needs to be able to buy a reasonably priced

home in a town with many opportunities and provide a second. opportunity to stay home and raise young children. get them to agree that when a nation cannot provide sufficient opportunities for young folks to couple, become stakeholders and tend to the raising of healthy kids, we have problems. we certainly do. we talked to brad wilcox of the national marriage project about this. >> tucker: thank you for coming on. as i watch the perennial popularity of socialism come back, you have to ask yourself, what seo appeal of socialism?pe and then i see numbers like these and i think, if we don't fix them, we are going to get socialism. >> a lot of younger adults are concerned about things like health care, employment, debt and they see the government as sort of a good place to see greater security given the broader context we are seeing in

america. >> tucker: i want to zero in on marriage. marriage is among many other things an indicator and a cause of prosperity. married people with kids tend to be more economically stable. what can we do to reverse the trend that is causing young people to delay or avoid marriage entirely? >> i think there are a couple things we can do. one thing we can do is get rid of the marriage penalty is that face the younger adults, and things like medicaid, ei tcn food stamps. i think we can also do more to think about things like doing more subsidized working-class wages, and we also have to sort of think about the cultural context that we are living in. and think about how to make marriage more appealing in pop culture and also to think about ways that we can do more to

spendd time in person, and less time online. it looks like only culture is playing a pretty big role in both the retreat from marriage and the retreat from fertility in the u.s. >> i think all of us unmarried people have an interest in this. married people with kids are not joining antifa and smashing store windows and calling for 95% tax rates and burning things down. they just are not. a country with a lot of unmarried young people is a volatile country. so i don't our policymakers take this seriously? >> i think a lot of people think of marriage as a private issue and that the government should not and cannot do anything about near the mic marriage or fertility-esque topics. we kind of see what's happening in our families that has to do with is happening in our community more generally. >> that such an obvious point, why do we ignore this as a cause of social volatility?

volatility left wrecking the country, why does nobody say that? >> i think it's obviously, things related to divorce and a single and that's very sensitive to a lot of us. people have been in difficult situations and there is reluctance to engage on these issues but the science is very clear. that indicates one of the best predictors of mobility, and these things really matter for the health of the american dream here inal the u.s. >> sean: i think you for saying that. brad wilcox, we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me anna, tucker. last friday we told you about the chance to knock bob woodward off the top of the best seller charts ande tonight we are happy to report that it worked. "the new york times" has announced the best-selling books in the last week and a ship of

fools displaced woodward's book and it is now number one. thank you for that. you have our heartfelt gratitude, for supporting the show so consistently. that's it for us, we will be back tomorrow. we are the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness and groupthink on the show. in the meantime, sean hannity, live from new york, right now. >> sean: great show tonight tucker and lots of breaking new news. georgia and alabama, this is now the strongest storm to hit the mainland u.s. since 1969. coming up we have full hurricane coverage but first, 27 days to go until the all important midterm elections, the most important in our lifetime. we will break down exactly what is at stake tonight. it is a mob in many
