tips. >> martha: i was a waiter but handing over the counter? >> i'm a sucker i guess. >> martha: that is the story on friday night. have a great weekend, everybody. see you here monday night at 7:00. tucker carlson is up next. ♪ >> tucker: good evening. welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." we want to start with a fox news alert. saudi arabia confirmed this evening the death of "washington post" columnist jamal khashoggi. the state run media says khashoggi was killed and said it happened in a fistfight at the consulate in turkey. we will try to explain what it means in a minute from now but first update on the facts of the case. benjamin hall is in istanbul with those. ben? >> hi, tucker. 17 long days we waited for the explanation. now we get it today.

only a few days since pompeo flew to demand answers. what they are telling us and releasing publicly they arrested 18 individuals connected to the murder of jamal khashoggi. majority of the people were the same ones caught on c.c.t.v. entering the consulate and leaving afterwards. what they say happened inside was a fight. the discussion between khashoggi and the people who met him at the consulate led to a fight and a clash with hands led to the death. that line "with hands" is important because the leaks from turkey said dismemberment and pulling off a finger. so saudi arabia trying to distance itself from the gruesome nature of the story we have been hearing. among 18 arrested. among them is a man called general al-assiri who trained

in the u.s. and the u.k. he was the former spokesman for the saudi-led war in yemen. a major figure in the saudi intelligence. alongside him is a senior aide to crown prince mohammed bin salman. but that is as far as it goes. the royal family deny involvement saying they are pushing back on this and restructured the intelligence service in light of this. so coming a line of total deniability. and the king reached out to president erdogan a few hours before the news broke and he wants to smooth over relationship with the country. the last two weeks are torturous. we are waiting for a statement from the white house. with have heard from senators and we heard from lindsey graham who does not believe

it. a few days ago he came out against salman. he says to say i'm skeptical is an understatement. we don't know if this is a lasting issue in the u.s. we get breaking news constantly and i speak to the saudi sources. this is the story we expected. the intense is interrogation gone wrong and sanctioned by someone high level but not the royal family. that is what we are getting and we have to see how it is playing out. is will lasting damage done? we have to wait to see. where is the body? who sanctioned it? why did 15 go to consulate to interrogate one man? that is unanswered today. we will try to bring it to you as we get answers from here. >> tucker: where is the body? great question. ben, thank you very much. so there you have it. khashoggi is in fact dead as we have been told and saudis

did it. they admit. what do we make of it? the head nodders on tv are stunned by the gnaws and hardly believe a bloodthirsty medieval theocracy would do this. really? the saudis? the same people that cut off the hands of thieves and behead adulters in public parks? the regime prosecuting one of the world's cruelest wars in one of the poorest countries, yemen. you are telling me those people murdered a political opponent? it doesn't sound like the saudis we know. c'mon. of course they did. i we knew they did it. their only concern is they got caught. they probably regret the whole thing now they have been caught. but what is confusing is the wave of the false posturing from the mindless ruling class. khashoggi's death they are telling us is somehow the most important story in the world. far more important than the political murders china commits each year. far more than saudi arabia. or countless children the saudis bombed and starved to death in yemen.

more than that, they are telling us this is a moral litmus test. the latest of a long series of the moral litmus tests delivered to us by fiat on cable news. support this. don't support that. otherwise you are bad person. share my beliefs or you are damned. in this case this is confusing because these are the same people, the ones commanding you to hate the saudis who just months ago were uncritically repeating saudi talking points right from the embassy. remember we bombed syria last spring? and bombed tilt year before? saudi pushed that and everyone knew that. it might have been nice to hear it on television to use medca skepticism at the time. but no. only this show brought it up. the rest of the press loved it. they love all wars. the more distant and the more pointless the better. okay. but spare us the theatrics

now. this is a stunt. international incident for domestic political goals. here are the goals. watch this. >> the president is completely in the pocket of any other dictators of the world because he admires their ability to basically kill or tactically allow the death of anybody who criticizes them. >> when donald trump calls the press the enemy of the people -- it's not implausible that the saudis heard and that thought no one will care. these people are the enemy of the people. >> you see it with his complicity and it is complicity in the murder of a "washington post" columnist by a middle eastern thug. >> tucker: meanwhile today, congressman castro floated the bizarre theory that khashoggi's murder was ordered by jared kushner. everyone cnn seemed confused by this. watch. >> let me get to the point that i think is the most disturbing now. the reporting that jared kushner may have with the

u.s. intelligence delivered a hit list, enemy's list to the crown prince, the m.b.s. in saudi arabia and that the prince then may have acted on that. and one of the people he took action against is mr. khashoggi. >> just to be clear, we do not have that reporting. >> tucker: that is a sitting member of congress who said that. these are not serious people. they know nothing. they will say anything. they are buffoons. spare us the lectures, please. we have more on the news from saudi arabia in a few minutes. but first another fox news alert. mexican authorities trying to stop a caravan of the migrants headed north to the united states that may literally be beyond their power. trace gallagher has the latest on that story. trace? >> tucker, it's impossible to get an accurate count because the caravan is spreading out but we still believe there are between 3,000-4,000 honduran and salvadoran immigrants heading north.

right in out at the guatemala border with mexico there are thousands of migrants waiting in line trying to cross one of two bridges that lead in to mexico. earlier they broke a gate and they tried to push their way in to the country. and in spite of the mexican police and the military using smoke canisters to push them back, many of them as you can see kind of got through. mexico has now told the united states it would put up the shelters, meaning tents along the boarder with guatemala. and the mexican authorities say they are allowing 100 migrants per day to come into mexico. those people are being told they want to seek asylum, if they do so, mexican government saying they need to stay in a government shelter or charity shelter. and the applications will be processed in 45 days. if they leave and roam the country, they forfeit the asylum request and they could be deported. today after meeting with president nieto, secretary of state mike pompeo said this.

watch. >> this is an organized effort to come through and violate sovereignty of mexico. we are prepared to do all we can to support the decision that mexico makes about how they are going to address this serious and important issue. reports on the ground show most of them are trying to come to the united states. president trump vowed to use the military to shut down the border if needed. tucker? >> tucker: trace gallagher, thank you for the update. meanwhile, the midterm elections are around the corner. 18 days from right now. and the central question remaining isn't just who will win congress. whether the democratic party will remain a legitimate political organization or become something else entirely. elements of the democratic coalition are becoming radical. some threaten violence and others advocate violence and some even take the next step and engage in violence. even the leaders, deep in establishment with the most to

lose are saying things that would have been unimaginable a year ago. here for example is nancy pelosi. watch her explain that people will be hurt in order to achieve the democratic party goals. and that's okay. watch. >> we have to have total clarity about what we do when it comes to everything. a woman's right to choose. immigration. whether it's about gun safety. whether it's about climate. talk about climate and if there is some collateral damage or some others who do not share our view, well, so be it. >> tucker: "collateral damage." she is talking about you. you are collateral damage in pelosi's direct calculation. thank you for telling us. you are a person in way, inconvenience and will be crushed under the wheel of process. one of the infamous eggs broke on the make the world's greatest omelette. today, a new york man charged

with senators with death. why? because they dared to support the calving caviling caviling nomination. they -- support the brett kavanaugh nomination. this woman was in the way and made a mistake to wear nypd hat in the presence of a leftist. watch what happened. >> why are you trying to block me? i'm just trying to walk here. >> it's a traffic signal. >> you're a [bleep] idiot. >> [bleep] >> i'm not going to touch you. i'm not like your husband. i am not going to punch you. >> i'm not married. >> i'm not like your boyfriend who is going to knock you out. >> my husband died. >> good her him. good. good. nypd sodomizing immigrants with the bully sticks. so, yeah, your husband can rot in the grave. >> tucker: i'm glad your husband died in 9/11 says a husband of the youth wing of

the democratic party. ann coulter watching moments like these and writing about it. the new book "resistance is futile." she joins us tonight. ann, great to see you. >> thank you. good to be here. >> tucker: what does the democratic party look like 19 days from now? how do they put it back together? they showed us who they are. what are they when the smoke clears? >> i wouldn't judge how they do this fall by -- assume the comments are beloved by the people. people have to remember a blue wave is the historical norm right now. it's possible they take control of the house. luckily, because of what you showed and the reaction to justice kavanaugh didn't look like they will take the u.s. senate. they taught be having a huge blue wave. they probably won't have it because they are insane. they have gone mad. >> tucker: those who run the party invest in it. the people who hold office or

livelihood depend on the democratic party. they must be getting nervous. they can't control the base. >> they do this all the time. they did it after ferringer. to help democrats win an election. they are willing to gen up race hatred. after what happened in ferguson, at this point after kavanaugh and continuing until the election to g gin up women. they can't control them. once they have done it they walk away. you see the ferguson effect written about by heather mcdonald and other. the rates of black teens murdered went up astronomically after ferguson and particularly in cities where there was an alleged policerace shooting. incidentally -- police racist shooting. incidentally i notice that the police stopped attacking black people when they started to

wear body camera. did you notice it went away? the aclu is suing some cities to make them stop wearing body cameras because they keep getting caught making false allegation of a racist cop. as a princeton woman did. a prisston professor made -- princeton professor made allegation of racist stop. ah-ha! body camera. complete lie. >> tucker: does the democratic party ever become the democratic party of 2012? or 1998? or a party concerned with the economics and something other than identity politics? >> it doesn't look like it. there was an interesting article. you won't hear these words out of my mouth often. in the "new york times" this week by thomas edsall breaking down the polls on how the democratic party has changed. i just noticed looking at it, looking at nancy pelosi. white liberal women have gone off the charts on left wing crazeness and nothing to do with the economics. the democratic party as some

of us notice in the clinton era. that is when it began in the clinton era. abandon the working class. it's pedal to the metal on the identity politics and the yupie lifestyle. yuppie and welfare demographic. >> tucker: ann coulter.

>> tucker: elizabeth warren of massachusetts assumed she would be a progressive hero on monday when she released d.n.a. test results that showed it would be possible she had tiny amount of the indian blood. even the cherokee nation said she was hurting the tribal you interests doing this. but then cherokee nation made a mistake. someone called zerlena maxwell at msnbc explained there is only one possible explanation for any group criticizing a democrat. do you know what it is? we'll give you one guess. racist, of course. watch. >> the cherokee nation response was problematic because it ignores that the d.n.a. testing historically used to exclude the black native from the tribal. that is unfortunate.

>> tucker: so cherokee nation is racist for cit sizing elizabeth warren who is way whiter than you are. it's not racist to make up racial identity to advance your career. but if you call someone out for that, that is real racist. update the definition tonight. meanwhile the wife of the senior d.o.j. official bruce ohr appeared on capitol hill today. nellie ohr worked for fusion g.p.s. in the 2016 election cycle when her husband met with christopher steele about the infamous trump dossier. in her testimony to a house panel nellie ohr invoked spousal privilege. we are joined by a professor who has been watching this. thank you for coming on. i assume it's legitimate to invoke introducal privilege. sounds legitimate to me as a

nonlawyer. what do you think she was hoping not say? >> it's rare to have a spousal claim raised with the advancement that women have been able to achieve. to have someone in an important position refuse to answer questions from the oversight committee returning to a spousal status is problematic. serious questions have been raised here. conflicts in the testimony that people have cited. with regard to her husband. what we have to find out is what is the real record? when were the contacts made? who were the people that presented the information that ultimately went to the fisa court? none of those questions are answered now. >> tucker: you make a good point. if she is saying she can't answer question to oversight body because it's her husband and they are too close and shouldn't have to violate the

privacy that exists between them. is it appropriate for them to be working indirectly in a government setting in which they were? >> that is a problem. there is alternative reasoning. claim the fifth, if i don't use the fifth, he is my spouse. if he's not my spouse, i'm his minister. something along the lines. she hasn't claimed the full array but there is information that the oversight committee requires. i honestly don't know how serious the allegations are. i think we should know. we need some of the answers. mr. ohr made statements when he first interacted with the company on this issue that seemed to be in the contradiction with the statement of the other witnesses. that always a serious problem for congress. now, the fact is his wife was an officer of the company. with an employee of the company directly involved in the allegations. if we now are going to have the spousal immunity claims it

creates a serious problem in terms of having couples each for their own merit achieving positions of authority. if we have to face the type of spousal claims. >> tucker: well, yeah. especially when you have a law enforcement agency going through hillary clinton's opo of people for information. that winds up the basis of a criminal investigation. that is a problem. professor, thank you for clear explanation. >> thank you. >> tucker: female athletes finding themselves outclassed by biological men in their sports and what is the future of women's sport in the age of transgenderism? it's a real question. that's next.

merit, attack motive. amy is a feminist and blogs at don't let it go.com and she joins us tonight. thank you for coming on. >> thank you for having me on. happy to be here. >> tucker: i want your take on this. women athletics exists in a separate category for a biological reason because women on average, not all but on average are differently built. >> yes. >> tucker: so this seems like a huge challenge to the idea of women athletics and none of the people whose job it is to defend women say anything about it. why is that? >> i don't know why. i myself think it's wonderful that most of the societies today allow for women to compete in athletics because it gives you the thrill of competition. the great sense of accomplishment, plus the benefits of exercise and everything else. the enterprise depends on segregates women because we

are less strong than men and have less muscle mass. i'll get into the science but i want to say professor mckinnon, i disagree with her about what a right to compete is. i don't understand it way she does. right to compete does not entail the right to have an organization host competition that is willing to accept you as a competitor. if it exists, great. i'm happy that we do have women's competitions. >> tucker: what would happen in the wnba if men describe themselves, biological debate -- i don't want to -- call yourself whatever you want. biology is real. but if the men compete it affects the women. >> tucker: i'll call them transgender and i have information about them from a great blogger h.d. he has a blog called hormones demystified.

he told me this is a real condition but he pointed me to some research. you know, tucker, there is very little research that is quantitative in terms of the muscle mass that the transgender females retain even after going through -- >> tucker: wouldn't you want to -- the essence of what you say is there is very little research. >> the one study that does exist show transgender female retain more muscle mass through biological females without hormonal -- >> tucker: of course i that. do but why wouldn't people in charge of protecting women from unfair competition are standing up and saying my job is to protect women? where are the protectors? >> so many of them are liberal-mind and they have a right to compete again. that everybody who wants to compete has a right to be allowed to participate in a competition of their choice perhaps. >> tucker: the rights of everyone else i would think play a role but not in case.

amy, thank you for the smart explanation. i appreciate it. we have more on saudi arabia admission that they did in fact kill jamal khashoggi. the biggest story in world. why is that exactly? plus, it's been two years. those of you who have still not recovered from the election. say a prayer for her. we'll show you the meltdown ahead. >> we are going to right the ship. there is no way he will prevail. he is evil. he is dark. it's the opposite of what america stands for. ne mistake. see, liberty mutual doesn't hold grudges. for drivers with accident forgiveness liberty mutual won't raise their rates because of their first accident. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty ♪

>> tucker: this is a fox news alert. saudi arabia admitted tonight missing journalist jamal khashoggi is in fact dead. they concede he was killed by saudis in what they said was a fistfight in consulate in turkey. the saudis blame what you just heard. a lot of the left decided that president trump is to blame somehow. there is no evidence he was in the consulate when the killing took place. we are joined by an attorney,

radio show host and former staffer to chuck schumer. we are all anti-saudi now. as someone who has been anti-saudi for a long time it's nice to have company. where were all the chest-beaters last spring when the united states bombed syria in part at the direction of saudi arabia? and everybody on the left, including your former boss chuck schumer said it's good idea to do the bidding of saudi arabia? but now anyone who says anything about saudi arabia is immoral. how did it change? >> i have always been concerned with saudi arabia. i'm a new yorker who worked in the united states senate after 9/11. i don't trust them. they gave aid and comfort to people who bombed us. i don't understand how we look at what they did to khashoggi any differently than what al-qaeda did to daniel pearl. it's an act of terror and it should be dealt with that way. for trump's role, he has been -- >> tucker: hold on.

wait, wait, wait. stop. before you get to trump and whatever. to answer the question. has to be dealt with how? pushing for another war? this one against the saudis? >> no. i'm not. >> tucker: okay. some think you are. >> we have a lot of leverage over saudi arabia, especially in their security in the middle east. we need to insist that this man is not installed permanently on the throne. he is the crown prince. >> tucker: oh! so we are going to -- this is like foreign policy by cable news. my favorite kind. what happens when the saudi kingdom, the royal family no longer controls their own country. what would happen if the saudi royal family collapsed? what do you think the afternoon math would look like? >> -- aftermath would look like? >> last i checked there are 40 other princes they could choose from.

m.b.s. wasn't originally in line for the throne. what he did was not about khashoggi but every journalist who threatened him in the world. >> tucker: hold on. how are journalists in china -- >> the president of the united states is acting weak here. >> tucker: please, save me the posturing. i want to know what the standards are here. journalists in china are killed more often than in saudi arabia. obviously. china being a huge funder and the supporter of the democratic party and a favorite of the democratic party. are we going to apply the standards to -- >> i don't know where you get that from. >> tucker: maybe i should show you a tape of dianne feinstein pledging allegiance to china. so across the board it doesn't matter. >> we should keep our values wherever they are threatened. jamal khashoggi was an american permanent resident and the law treats the permanent residents the same as citizens and the president should respond the same way. he killed somebody under our protection. if the president doesn't respond -- >> tucker: cool it with the

moral outrage. okay? i think we are all a little sick of it. >> how can we not be outraged? is >> tucker: i don't know. there is a long list of things to be outraged by. how about the war in yemen which saudis have been prosecuting and killed untold children? i don't remember you holding a press conference about that. >> i'm outraged by that, too. but we are talking about this tonight, tucker. i want to know if you think the khashoggi killing is different than daniel pearl's killing? i don't think it is. >> tucker: look, i'm not -- >> is it? tell me. >> tucker: the saudi arabia is medieval and terrifying. it's different in 50 ways. i'm not sure how to respond to it. >> we are in mutual agreement, tucker. i agree. i do not like what is going on there and i don't like a lot of things around the world but we have leverage over the saudis and we should use it. >> tucker: new war. all right. thank you. the interstaff published a piece on what he said is the

"washington post" hock pist rissy about saudi arabia and -- hoy pock rassy about saudi arabia. i want to be clear. i have never been on the side of saudi arabia. i hate how they control the foreign policy. particularly, in syria. why the outrage about this now? i'm confused by it. >> the saudis have been murdering journalists and murdering dissidents for decades. they have been doing it at a heightened rate for the last two years. as you just said. the obama administration was arming the saudis in order to create the worst humanitarian crisis in yemen by slaughtered civilians by the thousands and posing famine conditions on millions. the trump administration has done the same. the reason people in washington suddenly decided they are angry about saudi arabia is this time their victim is somebody who they ran into in washington restaurants and who was popular in washington social circles. that is the reality. they didn't care at all when victims of saudi arabia by the hundreds of thousands were people that they didn't like

or didn't care. it's just time they killed one of their friends. >> tucker: how deep would you say -- give us a quick overview how deep the ties between the saudi royal family and the official washington go, including in the journalistic establishment in washington? >> it's impossible to overstate. when the crown prince came here, he had the red carpet rolled out for him by hollywood. he met with oprah. by silicon valley and he met with bill gates and jeff bezos. in washington he met with the leaders of all the parties. saudi arabia has been a critical financial partner and military partner for the u.s. for a long time. the interest go so deep in wall street and the defense industry. as it turns out, even the "washington post" going around demanding everybody severalties with saudi arabia because it's immoral they have killed one of the journalist had on the staff two writers who both work at the lobbying

firms that had extremely lucrative contracts with the saudi government. so the "washington post" paying people unbeknownst to the readers for articles the same time they were being paid by the saudis to do messaging and other lobbying work for the same regime. >> tucker: the you tell us who they are so those of us who read the post know that while assessing the writing? >> carter eskew, the top level gore adviser in 2000. who formed the glober park group, mostly the democratic elite. the other is ed rogers long-time republican operative who is a founding partner in haley barbour firm, the former head of the r.n.c. who was in charge of the communications for the saudis in washington. they were both "washington post" writers for a long time now unbeknownst to readers and they were only told they had to get rid of the saudi contracts once we published the article by the "washington post." but so many major media

outlets including the cable news show networks have the regular commentators who work for the consultant and the lobbying firms two are paid to disseminate messages unbeknownst to people who are hearing them. i should be a huge journalism scandal. >> tucker: the totally fearless glenn greenwald. thank you, as always. >> thank you. >> tucker: midterm elections closing in, a "new york times" editorial board member had a simple request for hillary clinton. be quiet. it's not helping. that's next. after the 2016 defeat to donald trump and washington's reaction to it, it exposed the way that the people in charge really feel about you. they have total contempt. described in a new detail in a new book "ship of fools." the difference between excellence and mastery, is all the difference in the world. introducing the all-new lexus es. a product of mastery. experience amazing at your lexus dealer.

>> tucker: hillary clinton failed the democratic party two years ago but she has been determined to remain in the public eye ever since. now the "new york times" editorial board is fed up with it in an opinion piece. board member michelle cottle complains about clinton master class. and she claims sha she is deluding the party message. in short, hillary please go away. and dave ruben host of "ruben report" and joins us tonight. great to see you. >> great to see you. >> tucker: one of the benefit to being in los angeles because you are on the set. what do you make of hillary clinton? she still is the standard bearer of the party, isn't she? the last nominee. >> the line about the civility we can no longer be civil with the political opponents. think about what it means. word it differently. we should be uncivil? that is what she is saying.
