monday night. tweet me at martha maccallum using hashtag the story. we will see you tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. tucker carlson is ready to go in washington, d.c. thanks for being here everybody, we will see you tomorrow. ♪ good evening and welcome to tucker carlson tonight. one thing we learned about mass immigration the last couple years is that all good people supported. immigration is the ultimate moral litmus test. the decent among us step forward to welcome them in. that's commanded by the moral code of cable news and more importantly, by the poem at the bottom of the statue of liberty. only the bigots and haters slam the door, as they've been telling us in the media now for years. seeing as jim acosta has made that point repeatedly. it's finally happened, the

caravan has arrived. but here's the funny part, it didn't arrive in our country, it arrived in mexico in the border city of tijuana. the people of tijuana or mexican citizens so by definition they are good people come up much better than you are. they are more welcoming and compassionate, less selfish and less american. they will grow the economy and add richmond new diversity to the culture. so are the people of tijuana grateful for this caravan from honduras? fox's william la jeunesse went there to find out firsthand and here's what he discovered. >> should this caravan have been stopped at the guatemala border? >> of course, i agree with that 100%. you have to be aware of these people because, they don't belong here, they are just

migrants but in the same case, it's like mexican migrants going to the u.s. are undocumented. >> do you know of incidences here in tijuana and other cities that some of these people that are coming into these caravans are committing crimes? this is not about racism. we don't dislike a certain group of people because they are from one country or another. we are here because our government has not taken control of these, what we call, invasions. >> tucker: wait a second, that's not the script that we expected at all. the migrants are disruptive? they "don't belong here?" some of them are criminals? it sounds like what they are saying in tijuana is, when honduras sends its people, they are not sending their best. and that's a racist statement because donald trump said something like that in mexico once and the geniuses on cable news never forgot it and are still talking about that line years later. and yet, here you have nonwhite

people saying exactly the same thing. let's check back with tijuana to make sure we heard that right. [speaking in spanish] >> tucker: donald trump was right? how could someone in mexico say that, everyone in mexico hates trump because he believes and borders. nobody in mexico believes and borders, they are better than that. maybe that was just a lone extremist talking, some crazy person who found a microphone and a tv camera. we better check with the elected mayor of tijuana because if anyone can speak for the people of that city, he can. here's what the mayor had to say about the migrant caravan. >> [speaking in spanish]

>> tucker: an avalanche? a tsunami? notice the humanizing terms he uses. if this were a liberal arts college in america the mayor could be suspended for saying that, he definitely could be in some kind of diversity reeducation class by now. if you worked at google, he would be fired instantly. but he's not a student or tech drone, he's the mayor of tijuana and people can still say what they think without fear of being denounced by don lamont on cnn as a white supremacist. in tijuana, what they think is that a massive and abrupt demographic change is a destabilizing to a society, no matter what the color of the people involved might be. it is particularly destabilizing if you are not rich and most people in tijuana are not. even in mexico, they are wary of ignoring the law completely and treating borders like they don't exist. they know that doesn't end well. in mexico they can say that out

loud. henrique azevedo was an anchor at univision who was just in tijuana and he joins us tonight. thanks for coming on. i'm confused. we just saw a group of mexican citizens in tijuana saying basically the same things that president trump says almost to the word, endorsing trump. are they white supremacists? >> you have to understand that unlike human beings, intoleranc intolerance, hate and even racists flow freely across the borders and that is what you saw in those interviews. they are not running for president. they are not running for president of united states either. they are part of a group of around 300 protesters in a city of 1.3 million who, like many others are along the way are opposed to that in tijuana, and the majority of people in tijuana welcome immigrants.

it's a city of -- >> tucker: is a big city for sure. hold on, you just said that they are racist, but they are latino, spanish-speaking latinos, attacking other spanish speaking at latinos. so where is the racism? >> we are not a monolithic community. we have people from venezuela, colombia, different backgrounds and initiatives. racism exists in mexico toward central america. we want but how is it racist? >> when they go across mexico, violence, extortion and racism. >> tucker: i don't know how it's racism if they appear to be the same race. but moreover, and i think i said quoting one of the protests, it's not about racism. we want our governments to enforce our borders which is what a lot of people including me stay frequently in the united states. as it occurred to you that maybe it's not just racism, maybe it's okay to want your government to

keep your border intact? >> i think we should stop framing the immigration debate about absolutes. the border as you saw, it's in forest. border security through border patrol, through military, and through things like drones and atvs and high-tech surveillance equipment. we are enforcing the border. that's not a crisis or invasion, that's just a group of immigrants wanting to -- >> tucker: i know the talking points, but what is so interesting about these interviews as they seem to contradict the talking points. so the people of tijuana, we both agree they are probably not white supremacists, we can take that as a matter of faith. they seem to think this is a crisis, and if they are city and the mayor agrees with them, and i assume he's not a racist either, maybe he is. >> i'm very familiar last week.

and he didn't mean any discrimination or harm. it the most politically correct media figures also, but before we get him retracting his statements from under pressure from univest univision, do you think he has any legitimate complaints? and of course and governments, all the governments should understand this is a humanitarian crisis and start acting like it. again, i've said this a thousand times, we can spend a little more in the countries where these people are coming from and make a huge difference to the border. >> tucker: so you figured out,

we'll figured out how to fix honduras and make it such a thriving country and how would you do that. >> i'm not coming up with a new idea. we just need more resources. >> and so which program -- let's get specific. which program specifically would have made the economy of honduras so strong that no one would want to leave and come to the united states? >> so usa for examples working on two of the communities with the highest murder rate in honduras. throughout the last two or three years, with this program, they've been able to reduce violence and therefore reduce the amount of people who were leaving that town. the one so why do we have a caravan of hondurans coming?

i hear that a lot from dumb people on television, i think don lamont said that on cnn. we should spend more money in these countries. has there ever been a program that change a country in the third world that made it so appealing that no one wanted to come to the united states? i don't think there's a program like that. >> it's impossible to have a program for everyone. violence is a factor, poverty is a factor and even violence. we have a caravan and they were tracking their journey of a group of immigrants from honduras were 90% of crops have collapsed. the correspondent was telling me how the guatemalan region's famine to. >> tucker: i feel sorry for the people in the caravan and i understand why they want to come to the united states, i love this country. i appreciate their good tasting countries. but what about everybody else? >> we should start worrying when people don't want to come to the

united states. >> tucker: that will happen soon if there isn't a real border. honestly my question is, what about the people who live in the united states or in this case live in tijuana? do they have any legitimate reason not to want -- they do have a legitimate reason? >> by all means of course. we discuss this in the past. i've looked into immigration and it's not a desirable outcome for any of these people. but the better way is more humane, compassionate, and common sense laws that we can have instead of what we are doing with timely separation and measures that don't make any difference. >> tucker: i want except blame for the disaster that is central america. sorry. henrique, thank you. brandon judd is the president of the national border security. so, and i feel sorry for the people of tijuana. do you think that chaos of who

we are watching on the screen in tijuana indicates that this kind of caravan can destabilize society pretty quickly? >> they are absolutely correct. all you have to do is look at what just happened in our port of entry. today this migrate caravan, they were tired of waiting -- properly waiting in line, waiting for their turn to claim asylum, and they tried to shut down the entire port of entry by rushing the port of entry. if it wasn't for president trump, and him sending the troops to the border and doing what he did, we would have ultimately shut down a port of entry that generates millions of dollars for the american economy per year. and we just can't have that. that's the lawlessness that we are facing. tucker, i just walked out of a meeting with the president and to see him and see the things he's trying to do to secure our

borders, he was left with the mess from his predecessors. this is a president that for once in him for always trying to end the debate and trying to secure the border for the american public. after that, everyone should be grateful. >> people should have differing views, about anything really. and all you have to do is look at me, unfortunately i'm publicly challenged. in my automatically a bigot, because i don't have hair? the truth is, absolutely not. i adopted two children of hispanic descent, and we are not bigots, simply because we want border security. we want our children to be able to be raised in a country that believes in laws that makes us

free and protects us. >> tucker: of course, and the people of tijuana want the same thing, why would they. brandon, thank you very much. a democratic member of congress says it's time to ban millions of guns. take them from you by force, and if you don't like it, the government may kill you. for real. that's next. ♪ before nexium 24hr mark could only imagine... a peaceful night sleep without frequent heartburn waking him up. now that dream is a reality. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts for all-day, all-night protection. can you imagine 24 hours without heartburn? if you're waiting patiently for a liver transplant, it could cost you your life. it's time to get out of line with upmc. at upmc, living-donor transplants put you first. so you don't die waiting.

are feeling newly emboldened about rolling back the second amendment. eric swalwell talked about bringing criminal charges against anyone who resisted. we are not misquoting that, he wrote it and then op-ed. then one critic said it this would provoke armed resistance against the government because obviously it would. so while well responded this way "it would be a short war, my friend. the government has nukes." in other words, obey or we will kill you. mr. williams, thanks for coming on. so there's something admirable about the straightforwardness from our old friend, congressman swallow well. if you don't obey, we will just kill you. what do you think of that? >> we have to get to a place where we can have a conversation about what's happening in this country and have respect. as we want do you think threatening people with guidance is a good way to get to it?

>> no, nor do i think having conversations about guns not being part of the problem is a good way to have the conversation. so we should start with guns are a part of the problem and figure out how to deal with it. >> tucker: so we know swallow well very well, i personally like him and we asked him to respond directly. but, we don't even threaten arm marshall enemies on that. >> we create peace and comfort for the victims of the chicago mass shooting. but like the mother of a victim that happening california, she said she was tired of prayers and wanted action, we have to have actionable items. but there are actionable items. >> so let me just ask you this.

here's my confusion and i have no problem trying to disarm people who are threatening. the problem i have with gun confiscation is it punishes people like me who pose no threat at all, and you and many millions of other americans with no criminal record and no intent to harm anybody, and it's makes you sound like a criminal now. >> eric swalwell was a member of the intel committee. >> we could have a conversation about one, isn't there an issue with guns in this country and what do we do with that? the actionable items are quite clear. we could address loopholes in the assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. number two, we can deal with dealers who have been unscrupulous and number three we can begin to treat guns like we do cars. >> one congressman is saying, we will take your guns away by force.

but one -- >> we both don't know that but, you can believe what you'd like. i'm here to have a discussion on the issue. we should have a discussion. >> let's talk about magazines. if you say high-capacity, which means any more than ten, if you have a magazine that is 15 round capacity, why is that a threat to anyone? >> with everyone in agreeing that guns and access to guns are an issue -- >> tucker: i don't agree with that. in the hands, like any tool but the hands of someone with mall intent, it's dangerous. so what i've been forced to give up any magazines that i had a question mark >> if a hammer called 32,000 americans every single year, we would be screaming and yelling, let's regulate hammers. guns are only made for killing. what i'm saying is let's at least treat guns how we treat vehicles. >> tucker: so there are

millions upon millions of so-called high-capacity magazines out there. what do we do with those? >> i mention three things. dealing with high-capacity magazines and assault weapons. i mentioned with the loophole of magazines and treating guns like we treat vehicles. that's just on on the supply s. >> what this is what you do, let me impress you. there are tens of millions of magazines that fit more than ten rounds. in circulation. what do we do with them? >> new york city was a safest city of guns since 1951. i have a leading voice in dealing with gun violence in new york city. >> a gun again is part of the gun violence problem. and we have to all agree. and i want to start, you are not

going to answer straightforward. >> are you going to answer a straightforward question? are guns part of gun violence in this country? >> and of course, they are the tool that's used often to commit suicide. >> so we have to start at that point. >> tucker: if i have a high-capacity magazine in my possession, your definition of high-capacity, and i don't want to give it up, will you take it from me? >> let's take that off the table, and take the other two. and and people present things because you want to get to the point where people reject any conversation. the one i want to go where you stand. the answer is, i'm going to take it from you. >> the fact of the matter is we

have less than 5% of the population and we own half civilian guns. but thank you for agreeing that guns are part of the gun violence problems in america. >> tucker: i always say what i think, in contrast to you, i will say that. thank you for joining us. >> thanks for having me. >> calling nor is a tv host and he joins us tonight. i'm starting to get the sense that confiscation is clearly the goal because there is no other goal that makes sense. if there are tens of millions of so-called assault rifles in circulation and many tens of millions of these so-called high-capacity magazines, you will never solve the problem that the left believes is responsible for gun violence unless you take those away. right? >> it's the only logical conclusion because if you think about it, if you start with gun control based on the idea of restricting or taking something away, let's say we get rid of the ar-15. the account for less than 3% of gun deaths in this country so let's say we get an assault

weapons ban. at that point another shooting happens like the one i have been recently where he was a handgun. then we think, that didn't work. we need to do something more strict. it's always a race took total and complete confiscation but they never want to admit that. they want to act as if they are being reasonable. but it's like, the big scary guns aren't the problem because they account for less than 3% of gun deaths. if you honestly believe the tool isn't the issue then why aren't you addressing the handgun? >> tucker: that's a really smart point and when i plan to bring up next time we speak to someone on the other side. but my question is even broader than that. why in an increasingly chaotic world would you want to disarm normal law-abiding people? what threat do they pose? >> i think there is one dynamic which is composed of people who are just generally ignorant about firearms and then another

dynamic of people who are generally have an agenda to gain more control and to push the idea of reliance on the government. it sounds -- if i'm relying on my ability to protect myself, my natural and inclination is not to rely on the government to be there when something goes wrong. you can't push the government if you have a populace of people who understand and embrace the idea of self-reliance. >> tucker: that's a compliment. you are saying that many people on the periphery of the conversation hasn't really thought about it, but the people who drive in the conversation who have thought about it, do have an agenda. >> absolutely. it's one of those things where -- go ahead. >> tucker: that's it, i'm just impressed. nancy pelosi led the democrats back to a majority in the house, almost 40 seats.

now she will be removed from power with fellow democrats. that sounds like sexism and we are sounding the alarm right now. we will talk to richard about it after the break. oh!

but what are they for? what's the organizing principle? if you mention something and straightforward like lower prescription drug prices were more transgender marines, their agenda is bigger than that. the democrats are playing nothing less than the moral revival of this country. listen to their leaders. >> that invisible moral fabric has been shredded. literally, being shredded. >> i knew that the good people of texas would rise up and find their moral compass. >> this is ridiculous policy that has offended them morality of the american people. >> if my republican colleague had any sense of morality, they would've refused to go forward on friday. >> tucker: a senator blumenthal of connecticut. the party of selective abortion is now lecturing you about morality and frankly coming up a little short in the department.

if you don't measure up to the high moral standards of senator christian jell-o brand of new york, longtime friend and defender of bill clinton, harvey weinstein and anthony weiner. she's recently been reborn as a fire-breathing fundamentalist preacher. here's a selection from a few of her sermons just over the past week. >> this country was founded on some basic moral principles. we have a moral compass as a nation and our morality as a country is literally on nice edge. >> for me it's a moral question. >> and that moral decency. >> keep in mind also, that senator gillibrand isn't just fighting for moral integrity and moral decency, she says she has been called to fight for these things. you know who called her, don't you? it wasn't her friend anthony weiner from the prison pay phone, it was god himself.

he calls senator gillibrand directly, he's got herself, that's how close they are. they knew they would try to start their own. the minority democrats are as we said back in the house. the speaker in a growing number of democrats publicly voicing opposition to nancy pelosi for that job for another time. >> one of the things that i talked about frequently on the campaign trail was the need to have new voices in congress and the need to turn the new page. >> we answer that call for new leadership by reestablishing the same status quo and leadership that we've had since 2006. >> other people throw their hat in the ring, too. >> the most obvious is by saying, look. that's 39 seats in the house and possibly we will get to 40. i did that, and instead she's

crying sexism. >> you would have to ask those people what their motivation is. and and if there is any misogyny involved, it's their problem. storm act richard goodstein is a living expert on this. he is an attorney and former advisor. i didn't know richard that there was not much sexism in the democratic party. what are you guys going to do about it? >> i was sorry to see nancy pelosi attribute those rebels to misogyny and sexism. i actually think she knows that that's not what it is. when connor lam was running for election, and all these ads are being run saying he's going to be a puppet of nancy pelosi.

it's not because he's a moment but because he made a commitment to his constituents because he basically thought that's what he needed to do to, a, get elected, and b, do what he thought was right. >> tucker: so he just wants the most qualified candidate, irrespective of her. i can't let you off the hook that fast, richard. these are the rules that you guys wrote and the rules are as follows. the most important thing about you is how you are born. your, your race, your preference, and your inequality is, your dna. it's called identity, i don't know if you knew that, in the intersectional world that you guys made, you can't just say, we found a better candidate. you are blowing off a woman and 14 men are doing that the problem for the democrats, and

they are going to put the younger, vital, evil, competent people in our leadership position, and paul ryan is a young guy. i think that something that frankly, a lot of democrats wish -- democrats wish they could figure out a way to appraise. nothing to do with nancy pelosi nancy pelosi's gender or congressman clybourn's race. >> really? everything outside the democratic party's leadership structure according to democrats have to do with race and gender, everything. every time i flip on the tube there is some tugging his chin and saying, i don't see enough people of whatever in this picture. that's the most basic democratic talking point. but we aren't supposed to apply it to the democratic leadership, because why? >> i think the democratic talking points are about

health care, about taxes going to working people, about gun background checks. >> can i i to stop lecturing te rest of us? that's all i'm asking for. i hope the democrats talk about health care, i think it's an important topic. can they lay off the recent gender stuff >> republicans put nancy pelosi on the ballot. democrats picked up 39 seats, nothing to do with race or gender but something to do with the belief that they needed an agenda that the democrats supported and frankly to put -- >> nothing to do with race or gender, how do we know that? here's what i know and here are the stark facts of the case. donald trump is for nancy pelosi as speaker but seth moulton is not. trump is comfortable with and

seth in power, and donald trump seems very enlightened. that's what i say, why do you see something different? >> you are assigning weight to what donald trump said. i think most democrats and frankly most people in the country anymore don't. they just don't assigning weight to what he said. >> i am not for pelosi. i'm just using the rules that you guys made up, and in forest with germanic efficiency on the rest of us. that's all i'm doing. it feels bad because it's unfair and stupid. can you admit that? and the rest of us have to live like this in fear, and maybe you should live like that just for a day to see what it's like. >> you are describing things that i think democrats and the public generally, they wouldn't have voted in democrats to run the house that they had accepted your proposition. >> tucker: great to see you. the new face of the
