for this monday night. things were being with us. a new podcast went up today. a film raiders of the podcast. it is so good. listen to it. i hope you like it. we will see you back here tonight. good night, everybody. ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." in case you weren't invited, the white house correspondents dinner took place over the weekend. for the third year in a row, donald trump was invited but took a pass and didn't show up. that has never happened in the long history of the dinner. presidents always show up in a tuxedo and head downtown to suck up to the white house correspondents association. they don't want to do that. they hate going. every one of them. they all deeply despised the news media, but they make the choice. it is a hostage situation. the press will punish you, guaranteed.

they won't admit it. they will make up some story. here for example is jeff zucker's spokesman, claiming that not going to media dinner is the same as attacking the media. >> say what you will about the press. this hasn't been since our first amendment. >> yes, an awards dinner and a fund-raiser appeared in the past, presidents have always showed up. it is yet another example of what we are seeing. the administration's attack against the media takes many forms. the president having a rally this saturday instead of attending the dinner. >> tucker: some people are so self-confident. have you noticed that? almost like there is a self-esteem confidence reverse access. they are telling us that going to your own events instead of hours is a form of harassment. you know why it's not, according to cnn? spying on james rosen and his parents because you don't like what he's covering.

then obama went to a separate white house correspondents association dinners. nobody ever denounced him. obama hated reporters, by the way. most people do, with good reason. but they left him back anyway. they agreed with his politics. that's what happens. watch what happens when they don't. >> i still separated my career. before 2017 and what came afterwards. that is when the president of the united states called us the enemies of the people. i thought there was time that we reset this, put it a little bit more squarely on journalism and the first amendment. a little bit more on the people, the men and women who helped to hold the most powerful institution. ladies and gentlemen of the first amendment. now i am delighted tonight for the first amendment. we now have to fight hard for basic truths we once took for granted. like every future president,

washington felt maligned and misunderstood by the press. but he never generalize that into a vendetta against the institution. i think you are doing noble work to preserve democracy during a time when a rising tide of misinformation threatens to make a mockery of the first amendment. donald trump is not the first and won't be the last american president to create jitters about the first amendment. but what is happening today is perhaps even more insidious. our relentless campaign against the very credibility of the news media. >> this is a glorious edition. you folks are a part of it, and we can't have politicians trampling on it with impunity. [cheers and applause] >> tucker: people are doubting the news media. that's wrong. we are seeing misinformation masquerading as news, they are telling us. they are right. we have seen a lot of that recently. how about the last two years of russia coverage? michael cohen met secretly.

he is about to be indicted. told us all of that. it totally dishonest. "the new york times," "the washington post" one my pulitzers for what turned out to be misinformation masquerading as news. last saturday night would have been a perfect moment, actually, to apologize and return the prizes they won, but no. nobody returns a pulitzer. instead, they celebrated themselves. no surprise. that's what they do. what was odd was hearing them talk about free speech. the first amendment is in fact under ferocious attack, more than in the first 50 years, and yet the people in that room don't seem to notice. where were these same people last summer when the big tech companies colluded to silence alex jones? he is bad. cnn literally lead the effort to make can be quiet. jeff zucker doesn't agree with his political views, therefore he thinks he shouldn't be

allowed to talk. so zucker shut him up by force. did anyone mention any of that? and where were they when facebook and twitter blog dads supporting congresswoman marsha blackburn because they criticized abortion? where were they when he went to prison in the u.k. for having unfashionable these about immigration? where were they when james got fired and then slandered by google for questioning the company's diversity theology? where were they when peter lost his job teaching in virginia because he wouldn't use male pronouns to describe female students? did any of the first amendment defenders -- here they are, did they say a single word about any of this? of course they didn't. their job, they say, is to hold the powerful to account, but when given the chance to push back against the truly actually powerful, we are not even kidding -- google, amazon, facebook, paypal -- do they say anything ever?

no. of course not. they suck up. every single time. they suck up to power. because that's who they are. beautiful toadies to the powerful peer defending class interest and pretending that. that's who they are. chris hosts the chris plan show right here in washington. he joins us here tonight. a member of the media. for 30 years standing. this seems like the one group that ought to be defending free speech but that isn't. >> no. it's a catastrophic fail. i didn't watch it live, but i did dvr the dinner. i have been to many of them, as you have. i watched it yesterday, and i took notes because it's my job. i'm really embarrassed for them. for eight years, president obama racked up what has to be, and what the aclu described as one

of the worst first amendment records and presidential history. the aclu described him as a satirical first amendment president, all right. they -- on the campaign, they had three newspapers for obama and 2008 that did not endorse barack obama for president but endorsed john mccain for president. all three of those reporters, those three newspapers were kicked off of barack obama's campaign plan. that was in 2008. that was just sort of getting the ball rolling. during the course of the eight years, they squeezed out fox news. anita dunn was the communications director for obama. refuse to allow docs to participate in very important conference calls having to do with ben benghazi, ci briefings having to do with benghazi. they know where their bread is buttered. they are lackeys for the obama administration. fox news didn't sing from the sheet music, so they were

targeted by the obama administration. they also spied on the associated press because there was a leak that they were not happy with. so, phones used by at least 100 reporters with the associated press were taps. the records were -- they look into the conversations. the associated press called it an unprecedented intrusion, and it was in fact. they spied on james rison at "the new york times" because he reserved a leak. phone records and other communications and so on. and at "the new york times" ," d home emails. james rosen, who you know, formerly of the fox news channel now. his parents, who live in new york. this is the obama administration, which is the heartthrob, still of --

>> tucker: i don't remember anybody standing it -- i have been to these dinners. i don't remember anybody standing at the head of the room lecturing obama. >> no, they cheered him and toasted him. he also bombed more countries than any president since world war ii. he targeted and killed americans overseas without due process. nobody seems to mind any of this stuff. it was a lovefest. year after year. now suddenly the first amendment is under threat, not because they have kick news organizations that provide him with unfavorable coverage off of air force one are out of the press. that jim acosta problem. cnn, if it were an actual news organization, what have pulled him out of the white house long ago. he is not -- he can't be seen that way. >> tucker: if you cared about speech on the first amendment,

you would be very much about banning books. we have the hallmark of a totalitarian society. amazon is doing that. really they are the first and last word of bookselling. i never see any coverage of that. is that the latest that jeff bezos owns "the washington post" question mike >> you mentioned twitter and others banning choices that deviate from really from the party doctrine. t, p. the party. it is very orwellian. it should be disturbing to the people in that room, but they don't stand for the first amendment. they don't stand for freedom of speech or the press or for any of it. sometimes they kick their feet if somebody gets in their way when they are barging through a doorway, but that's about it. it is all self-interest. and it's about the party. let's face it. >> tucker: but we need someone to stand up for actual speech, which really is under attack. >> i do it on my shelf, and you

do it on your show. it really is under threat. i grew up in a media household. and i believed in the first amendment and in journalism. i really believed in facts. i believe in the truth. it's a crazy idea. and the lives that we are being fed on a daily basis are truly an outrage. these are the people that are tube feeding it to us. you listed a few, there are many more. cnn hilariously was given an honorary mention the other night at the correspondence dinner for their coverage of the brett kavanaugh hearings. i'm not making this up. they were given honorary mention because they couldn't get it. and then a big award went to a "washington post" reporter for reporting the story, where president trump used a bad word and a closed-door meeting with

adults in a secure room in the white house. >> tucker: when trump is gone, it will be clear that there is nothing left of the media. >> appalling. >> tucker: so if you really cared about the first amendment, and if you really cared about speech, you would be familiar with what just happened. and a lot of other people. the founder. two days before, facebook banned him from posting on his own account. three days with no explanation. he joins us tonight. thanks very much for joining us. we have from facebook the following explanation that in three cases, you said insulting things to people, you use one naughty word, and the third case, you said someone was dumb. and they said that this was against community guidelines, which strikes me as ridiculous. given the level of vitriol on facebook and twitter.

does this seem to you a political gesture, what they've done? >> you know, i began to wonder if facebook have ever been on facebook. if they think that calling someone dumb is outrageous on their platform. i mean, have they ever seen what level of political discourse takes place on their own platform? i'm beginning to wonder if there is actually not an algorithm that is looking at the stuff, but some little nerd in facebook hq who is just constantly refreshing my page, looking for excuses to ban me. last time, they did it right before i gave a speech. this week before we relaunched humanevents.com. we could not reach people that we have historically reached on our facebook platform. it's not about one person. i have so many testimonies from ordinary people out there who don't have the same recourse as i do to come on the tucker carlson show, and i'm very grateful for it, to talk

about how they are getting banned. and i've stomach if i can just say something about your opening monologue, you really hit the nail on the head. they will back the first amendment extensively, but where is their backing for the second amendment? they seem to want to pick and choose, and they want to pick and choose the issues. nothing about these two australian journalists who were detained, nothing about members of the european parliament, having their platform second down. it read ahead of the election campaign. and actually, this has become quite an embarrassment for america on the international stage because these are american corporate's putting their fingers on the scales of elections taking place all around the world. and i really do believe -- i know people like donald trump jr. doing excellent work to raise awareness for this, and i hope that it is time this president actually took some executive action to make sure this isn't happening. what they're doing is tantamount to that thing that they complain about all the time.

collusion. >> tucker: it is certainly the stifling of free expression and thought. it is certainly totalitarian. let me just ask you really quickly. have you seen anybody -- because i want to be fair. and the white house press corps, anyone who would have been at the dinner stand up and say that we should all be saying now. you are not in charge of what we can say -- push back against the tech titans and their efforts? have you seen anyone do that? >> actually, no. this is the dirty little secret. that these people all drink together. they all hang out together, they'll go to the same places. they'll date each other sisters. this is a very incestuous cabal of people. they are okay to be masters of the universe. telling us what not to do. we are going to surprise them because we are losing humanevents.com, and this is

exactly the type of thing we're going to start focusing very heavily on. >> tucker: i hope you will. this needs to be a free society. and we need to -- >> this is supposed to me america, tucker. it's not britain where we ban wessex for under stomach under 18 euros. everybody looks to you for moral leadership. >> tucker: i couldn't agree more. good luck. they are down, fair to say, but not out. can he be the charges against him? mark steyn has very careful careful legal case. the verdict. plus, the philippines threatening or tonight with canada over garbage. the very sensitive canadians have been sending their garbage to the philippines. tonight, canada response to the threat of war. the latest on that after the break ♪

♪ >> tucker: we have updates tonight on both the jussie smollett case and the college admissions cheating scandal. he joins us tonight. >> tucker, this is all coming from sheila o'brien who is now pushing for the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate the handling of the jussie smollett case. she has no agenda except finding the truth. a subpoenaed cook county states attorney ken fox to a hearing this thursday. trying to compel smollett to appear, but his attorneys are now pushing back.

court documents show that sheila o'brien is requesting that ken fox and jussie smollett produce their original files and documents to make sure they have not been altered or destroyed. o'brien's petitions as per actions created "an appearance of impropriety, perception that justice was not served here, that mr. smollett received special treatment." his attorneys say a special prosecutor can only be appointed if the case is still pending, and this one has been dropped. meantime, lori loughlin, her husband, and 15 other parents are apparently planning to fight the feds. today, they all officially pleaded not guilty. laughlin is accused of paying a $500,000 bribe to get her daughters into the university of southern california, pleading not guilty certainly does not rule out a plea deal, but at ths point, cutting a deal would likely require jail time. we are also learning one family from china allegedly paid

$6.5 million to bribe their child into a top school. tucker. >> tucker: they got overcharged. i'm just saying. thank you for that. it seems like about a decade ago, but it was only one calendar year from today as the creepy porn lawyer was all over tv. they were telling us that he was presidential material, in case you have forgotten. >> this president all but acknowledged vladimir putin as the president of the united states. >> it's ridiculous, chris, as to why the president would not want to get to the bottom of the russian collision situation. unless he knows he's guilty. >> mr. president, for you to love stomach live as a manchurian candidate and are white house -- >> why am i on cnn so much? guess what? this is why.

>> we will never be part of any effort to snow the american people, period. >> tucker: well, because, it is absolutely real, things promptly went south for the creepy porn lawyer. extortion, theft, tax evasion, and lots of other things. but he is a sporty character. he's not ready to give up just yet. today, he pleaded not guilty. what is next for him? mark steyn has been following this case as carefully as a layman can. so is there a hope that he stays out of the big house? >> not really because the federal justice system wins 99% of its cases. 97% of them without ever taking them to trial. that is a rate of success that kim jong un would envy. so he is up against some pretty

stiff thoughts, and i love all the stuff, you know. i believe in the presumption of innocence. i do too. i'm with him on that, but in the end, the reality of the federal justice system, both for this guy and for the actress that trace was talking about, at some point, you're looking at 475 years in jail if you go to trial. so you tend to cop a plea. that her heroic moment here, i will be interested to see, if that survives all the way to the courthouse. >> tucker: i don't want to prejudge the situation, and i'm not a juror here. i'm not even a licensed attorney, but all i know is when he sat in the studio this fall, our stage manager, who is a pretty sturdy character, was rattled tv in his presence. so creepy was his presence. i don't think -- that's not going to help him in court. >> now, it won't, and the reality is that if it weren't

for this, he would have found out that white house correspondence dinner, and they would have said he's speaking truth to power. and they would have done all of that flimflam with him, and he is just a rotten, sleazy lawyer, who, goes his clients account, which in california, which is the one thing -- the california ethics code is the shortest on the planet for california bar association. that's the one thing you can still be nailed on. he's not i heroic presidential speaking truth to power a guy, he's just a flimflam shyster who steals from his clients. >> tucker: you are so right. >> you could see this, and the white house couldn't. >> tucker: he would have been there, sipping for psycho. so we talked about this, but it had your name all over it. the president vowed to wage war

on canada if they didn't stop dumping garbage into the philippines. we explained last night, if it is war, the philippines has our full support. >> i am shocked that he would send his garbage to the philippines. a struggling third world country needs more garbage? it seems so insensitive. i don't know. it seems like a form of colonialism. garbage colonialism. >> i don't think it's a question of insensitivity. you know, tucker, our prime minister is very, very sensitive. >> tucker: then why is he sending those bottles to manila? it seems like white privilege to me. i'm just throwing that out ther there. >> tucker: so it looks like they have said their country is scrambling to bring that back. >> yeah. >> we have already indicated that we will take it back. this is an issue that both governments have to work on. that's all i'm going to say at

this point. we are working as quickly as we can. we are working as quickly as we can. >> tucker: so, canada just got back down by the philippines? >> now, this is terrible, tucke tucker. these are used adult diapers i canada -- when we go to work, we take it seriously. using them on the dock in manila. you are wrong to blame justin trudeau for this. these are adult diapers, and he's still on child size. so if you continue to provoke us, tucker, with all of your rattling to canada, we have read that poem at the bottom of the statue of liberty about the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. this is the most amount of refuse on the most teeming shore in history. we are going to drop it off on the harbor in new york if you don't back off. [laughs]

>> tucker: we would have to beat you out a pillow fight if that happens. do you think as a canadian, is as damaging damaging that national that most canadians feel deep inside? >> well, i think it is actually a beautiful thing because this is recycling and action. before, we just use you tossed -- i get my diapers from the clinton foundation because they are tax-deductible. before we just use to toss them in the landfill. now we need to save the planet, so let's shift on all the way to the philippines and let them sitting on the dock in the philippines for six years. >> tucker: you know why? it's for the climate. >> one diaper at a time, tucker. >> tucker: however many diapers it takes. mark, great to see you. >> thanks a lot, tucker. >> tucker: the left is going

well now. in denver, colorado, they want to bring the homeless people the right to camp anywhere they want. it doesn't matter if you do in new mexico, the county is begging the governor to stop burdening them with illegal immigrants. we will discuss those stories after the break.

♪

>> tucker: america's homeless epidemic is getting worse by the day. instead of fixing the problem, the left preferred solution is virtue signaling. they are pushing a resolution that they call the right to survive. it would make it legal for homeless people to set up camps wherever they want. it won't fix homelessness. it will encourage it. but it's a great idea. they can show how deeply they cocked demott care, how charitable they are. and be totally isolated and safe. but what about everyone else? they are the ones who actually want to use public parks and

libraries. normal people are the ones left to protect their kids from human waste and needles piling up on the sidewalk. for them, it's just a way for them to make their lives even more unpleasant. that may be exactly what happens. if only families had a political party looking out for them. they could use one. beto o'rourke isn't exactly an ideas guy. it's hard to be when you're stoned on a skateboard all day. but sometimes he comes up against his better judgment and comes up with an idea anyway. air quotes around that word. tear down all the walls. now he has another idea. he just revealed a $5 trillion plan to fight climate change. >> we are announcing the most ambitious climate plan in the history of the united states. we will ensure that we are at net zero greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2050. >> tucker: wait a second. by 2050? we are keeping track, am i, so

we just want to let you know that alexandria has ocasio-cortez, is climate scientist, has already said that that is pointless because the entire planet will be gone in 12 years. >> the and is going to and in 12 years. this is our war. this is our world war ii. >> tucker: like come on, beto. to get off the skateboard and get it together. $5 trillion by 2050? it needs to be $50 trillion by 2030, or you aren't even trying. in fact, you're a climate denier. well, 25 years ago, the left boasted about his efforts to help secure the border. now they treat it as a crime against humanity. in fact, the definition of bigotry, and why wouldn't they? they have private schools in gated communities. as i was 1955 where they live.

diversity for a day but not me. the rest of the population is not so lucky. new mexico believes that the immigration crisis has gotten so bad that they have declared a state of emergency and may have to sue the state. the chairman of the county commission there. he joins us tonight. mr. griffin, thanks very much for coming out. >> thank you, it's a blessing to be here. >> tucker: you are experiencing this directly, south for the viewers who haven't followed every twist and turn, your governor has asked them to leave the rest of the state open. what effect does that had on you and your county? >> yeah, tucker, it was at the very beginning. january 11th, i believe. she went down to one of the most secure areas of our border in santa teresa new mexico and had a political grandstand there. she said there is no crisis on

our southern border. everything is fine here. shortly after that, she retracted about over 100,000 national guard troops that were positioned along the border to secure the border. since she made that statement, she has yet to acknowledge that there definitely is a crisis. i mean, it's coming from every friend. everybody around her saying there is a fire, there is a fire, and our governor still has yet to say that there is. >> tucker: why doesn't she ask you about that? she doesn't live there. you do. why wouldn't she ask? >> there is just a disconnect. it's a shame that that happens in government. but you know, what drove us to the point of declaring a state of emergency is our checkpoints, tucker, has been closed since march 25th of this year, and those very checkpoints were put in place to provide security.

security first. illegal flow of aliens. but more importantly, what we are experiencing in my county right now is a level that we have never seen before. i work undercover narcotics, and he is a veteran. he has never seen anything that is like what's going on. our sheriff department has seized over $80,000 worth of narcotics. just recently, mark campbell from high intensity drug trafficking, is a sea enough at an all amtrak train here in albuquerque that if it would have gone airborne, it would have had the potential to kill 40% of the people in new mexico. so we are experiencing drug trafficking like we have never seen before, and the threat to you my county is unlike anything we have seen before. >> tucker: i hope that they

get the message. the people at the governor's mansion. thank you very much for joining us. >> hey, thank you very much for having me, tucker. >> tucker: well, 15 million children in this country don't have fathers at home, and that number keeps rising. what does the disappearance of father could mean america? that's next. . eyes haven't. that's why there's ocuvite. screen light... sunlight... longer hours... eyes today are stressed! but ocuvite has vital nutrients to help protect them. ocuvite. eye nutrition for today.

>> tucker: on saturday, there was a horrible shooting at the synagogue. "thoughts and prayers to all of those. god bless you. suspect apprehended. law enforcement did an outstanding job. that was his statement. but congressman and it doomed

presidential candidate was outraged by this. he did not politicize it, and that was a sin. he tweeted this. "spare us your thoughts and prayers. it's an alibi for an action. you told the nra yesterday you would keep guns in the hands of dangerous people. we will take it from here with action. meanwhile, the rabbi was a victim of that shooting. he lost to fingers in it, and he had a different take. >> i received a personal phone call from our president, donald trump. on behalf of the united states of america, we spoke about the moment of violence, and he spoke about his love of peace, and he is just so comforting. i'm really grateful to our president for taking the time and making that effort. >> tucker: he called the rabbi and told him that thoughts and prayers mean nothing.

they mean nothing. well, the decline of families in this country ultimately is about the disappearance of fathers from so many homes. one in five americans, 15 million kids overall, live with a single mother. no father present. fathers are also disappearing in another way. fewer men are marrying, and many are not having kids if they do. he has a new book out. it is called "my father left me." it deals extensively with the role of fatherhood and his life and the decline or success of civilizations. thanks very much for coming out. >> thank you. >> tucker: this is a very personal book. but it takes turns on the questions of fatherhood. what effect did that have on you? >> this is the primordial fact of your life.

it is who your parents are, and your father has a duty to protect and care for and provide for his children. and father also links his children to the society around him. institution, traditions, heritage, what it has to teach you. so growing up without a father can leave you feeling not only alienated from this primordial person in your life but alienated from your whole society and your country. when this is an academic and society, the conscience of their nation even. not just as one man, but everything he links his children to you as well. >> tucker: yes. if we have 15 million kids grab without fathers, that means there are millions and millions of fathers who have essentially walked out or just aren't present. you have this kind of amazing experience with your own father, and a lesson really for a lot of those dads who aren't with their kids.

what is it? >> to say that any father out there is that many fathers are estranged from their children for reasons may be of their control. maybe they were divorced, and they didn't want to be. they are tempted to give out. their children are turned against them. you don't need a father. you don't need this person in your life. what i have found, my father lived across the sea and ireland, and as i became an adult, my father actually took risks. sometimes even dangerous risks to get to know me and to be known by me. and that level of willingness to even put himself up to humiliation from his own son allowed us to reconcile as adults. and he began to connect me to him, to his whole family, and his nation, ireland, whose national stories kind of filled with this idea of sacrifice in the present for the future. >> tucker: i love that.

i wish we had more time, but i love the fact that he was willing to put up with humiliation from you. most people would not be willing to do that. >> right. most teenagers are kind of callow anyway. in the situation, where a teenager who grew up in this home feels the right to kind of let his father have it. the fact that my father was willing to stand up to that and stand up through that eventually allowed us to reconcile and allowed him to be a good grandfather to his young grandchildren. >> tucker: it's a great story. michael, thank you. >> thank you. >> tucker: modern life is making people stressed and miserable. also biological collapse of the species. male sperm counts have fallen by 50% in just 40 years. no one reports on that. we are about to. ♪

's >> tucker: everyone knows someone who struggled to have kids, to get pregnant. the question is why is this happening more than it used to happen? well, here's part of the answer. over the past four decades, sperm counts in men in the west have declined by more than 50%, and they're still dropping pure new statistics out last week show that many men are taking extreme measures like freezing their sperm. it has gotten very little coverage. taking a closer look, we spoke to him about it. here he is. doctor, thank you very much for joining us tonight. as you know, testosterone levels and sperm counts are dropping among men in the west and in every western country where they have been measured. very few people in the u.s. seem interested in why this is happening. you are interested.

why do you think it's happening? >> first of all, it is really worrisome. there is not only a decline, a dramatic decline. 50%. the sperm counts among western men. we don't really know the reason because so far, we have neglected to study what are the reasons for the decline of western men, at least of western men fertility. however, we do know some of the factors which are harmful and hurt male fertility. and mainly, man-made chemicals, endocrine stopping chemicals, which harm testosterone and testicular development during the fetal period, and also during adult life. in addition to chemicals, modern lifestyle, which harms us also harms our fertility, such as obesity, smoking, lack of

physical activity. >> tucker: so the last three factors are well known in this country. people with sedentary lifestyles, overweight, smokers. deep down a little bit, what you said about chemicals. which chemicals are affecting sperm counts and testosterone levels, and how does the average person and capture them? >> again, we did not study that well enough. we know for certain that certain pesticides, which i am personally studying here are definitely harmful to sperm. this makes a lot of sense because these chemicals were selected because they can harm the production and life itself of the pests. so pesticides, chemicals, they were proven to be endocrine stopping chemicals, and they can especially harm the very sensitive development of the

stomach testicles. >> tucker: give us a scope of the problem. why should we care that sperm counts are falling? >> this is a great question. fertility is essential. every young man may ask himself do i want to have children and to be very worried if he is unable. we know already now that many americans can't. up more than that, we now know that it is a good indicator of overall mobility and mortality. low-speed count is associated with higher mortality. so the decline in sperm count, more than that. this is a very sensitive marker

of the environment. so the decline in sperm count means that we cannot keep living the way that we live. it is not generational. even if we do something now, we can still see for the next generation. >> tucker: does lowers sperm count, testosterone, does it affect the quality of life aside from the obvious? does the average man feel differently, do you believe? >> i definitely believe so. it leads to many other diseases. the decline in sperm count, it signifies a general health problem. so if we don't act accordingly, we would continue to have it. we know that there is a difference in longevity between men and women. does it have to be so?

not necessarily. maybe we see shorter longevity for americans and for men because of factors that we can prevent. and this is very important for every american and for every man in the world. >> tucker: my final question, what you have described as a global emergency that is destroying millions of lives. why does nobody talk about the summer? >> that's a bit of the problem in public health. people are dying. everywhere. and we have many health problems. huge economic problems. due to the chemical exposure. but we don't see it. that is the problem. unlike in medicine, you cannot identify the specific person

with the problem. >> tucker: the fact that it is affecting men is part of the problem because men are bad. thank you very much. great to see you. thank you for sounding the alarm on this. >> thank you very much, and i totally agree that life in general is neglected. this is the wake-up call for all of us. >> tucker: amen. before we go tonight, we want to pass on our congratulations to someone we love. the six marathon majors. he used to run all six of them. he just completed his third in london over the weekend. he has already raised in new york and berlin. he was hoping to beat his previous times, and he did. by 6 minutes. he finished the race in three hours and 23 seconds. unbelievably fast. if you think about it. he was going faster than 8 minutes per mile for all 26.2 miles. that guy's a complete savage.

we just want to congratulate him. very good guy. that's it for us tonight. we will be back at 8:00 p.m. tomorrow night. it does show that is the sworn enemy of lying, come pomposity, smugness, and groupthink. >> sean: buckle up. welcome. we start with mourning the loss of lori kaye and pray for those who are injured. i heard about lack action in the face of horrific attacks. at the california synagogue. we will have full coverage on the senseless act of violence. the media is politicizing the shooting and many blaming it -- yeah, you guessed it, president trump. why? the actions of a deranged, sick, twisted evil individual who said and what was his own manifesto, he hated israel, and he hated donald trump him
