9:00 pm
i know. (vo) go national. go like a pro. ms. of ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight" ." the brett kavanaugh saga has just reminded us the left feels no compunction about rooting around in the past of people they don't like and using what they find to destroyun them. the question is do they apply the same standard to themselves? tonight we have breaking news about the past of a well-known progressive and once again confirms that no, the standards are not the same. we will bring that in justth a minute, but first and i come here's a quick quiz. what exactly do you know about kamala harris? can you name three things she believes? can you name a single thing she's accomplished? if you're like most americans, you cannot, you have no real
9:01 pm
idea who kamala harris is. the one thing you know about harris is that she could very easily become the president of the united states. and you know this because been told it confidently again and again by the geniuses on television. >> the name of hearing now, there was a sheet of people sort of survey of prominent women in politics, number one name of people -- the person that's on people's mind, kamala harris. >> the politician she reminded me of most than was barack obam barack obama. kamala harris is now running for president. and she is one of the top tier candidates. >> there's a new challenger to trump and she's drawing huge crowds. senator kemal harris of california kicked off her campaign this week surrounded by -- lookat up a crowd, trump must be envious. >> kamala harris is probably somebody that on paper has the highest ceiling. you can envision a path for kamala harris the quite resembles barack obama's. >> tucker: every word a
9:02 pm
cliche. these people are so stupid, it's remarkable they can breed unaided much less have paying jobs, but whatever, the story they tell you, kamala harris, she's a star destined for big things! she's like obama 2.0. even more woke with even more diversity points out there in america, they love kamala harris. she's a folk hero, she's like pete seeger. for eight months they try to cram that story down your throat and at times it looks almost semiplausible if you closed one eye. during the first wave of primary debates for example harris took a swing at the front runner. she denounced joe biden as a racist for having doubts about school busing. later emerged that harris herself at heads doubts about school busing. in fact, almost no african-american family in america supported school busing, it was a disaster. "washington post" rushed to her rescue. "kamala harris' takedown of joe biden was more brutal than it seems" read the headline. just brutal. she just dominated the guy. so ludicrous. it turns out she didn't actually
9:03 pm
dominate anybody and she's not dominating anybody. the new poll from california, obviously her home state which she represents in the united states senate, shows harris way at the back of the pack. she has now dropped into fifth place. she's pulling at 6%. how bad is that? here is some perspective. as of today, kamala harris is losing to andrew yang, the anti-circumcision candidate. by the way, she ought to be losing to andrew yang. whatever you think of his ideas, he smart come to the original he's totallyly genuine. paris is the opposite. harris is a soulless corporate shill wasn't uttered a single authentic word since she entered public life. harris is the daughter of stamper processor, which is good for her, but somehow shed pretends she overcame segregation. as tulsi gabbard pointed out, harris is also former prosecutor. she put others in jail for marijuana but she now brags about smoking weed herself and listening to rap because she's cool. [laughs]
9:04 pm
in other words, harris embodies everything that is grating and unlikable about neoliberals, mindless children of privilege who sneer at those below them for not obeying. turns out even a lot of faithful democratic voters find the whole thing totally unbearable because it is unbearable. i mean, really. mercifully it looks like the kamala harris campaign is doomed to dry up and blow away, and that can't come too soon. even the press appears to have abandoned her. their new crush, senator elizabeth warren of massachusetts. rr>> how consequential was that rally last night? not just what she said, but the four hours of selfies afterward afterwards. we're just learning the senator took some 4,000 selfies0 >> four hours taking selfies. >> she was out there taking selfies. >> people waited there for hours. >> she spent four hours taking selfies. >> 4,000 last night, that's remarkable. >> 4,000 last night, the campaign says 59,000 since she has started running forth president. >> some people waitedd for hours to have a selfie taken.
9:05 pm
>> tucker: they are in love. warren they are telling you is a rising star, and actually that's true. she is in fact the front runner in thein democratic race. technically joe biden is pulling in first place, but nobody expects that to last. even jimmy carter has given up on joe biden, watch e this. >> i hope there's an age limit. you know, if i were just 80 years old -- if i was 50 years younger, i don't believe i could undertake the duties that i experienced when i was president. but one thing you had to be very flexible with your mind. you're to be able to go from one subject to another and concentrate on each one adequately. >> tucker: have to be able to concentrate, unlike joe biden. it's not a subtle dig. elizabeth warren, by the way, would be over 75 years old if she is elected president by the end of her first term and yet she would still be way younger than joe biden or bernie sanders, so as of
9:06 pm
tonight, it looks like elizabeth warren by default, but who knows. the press has anointed her. warren may be doomed too, that's never a good sign. dana perino hosts the daily briefing with dana perino and she joins us tonight for some perspective. hey, dana. >> hi, how are you? spirit and great. >> you seem like a really good mood. >> tucker: there something so satisfying about pulling up the confident projections and predictions of people who know nothing and you saw the same t thing with beto o'rourke. all these people constantly staring at the camera, he's the one. if they did it with kamala harris. it looks like she's not the one. >> she had that -- remember she got out first and in the clip -- that first grouchy headset for cisco and i believe at the time even president trump was like wow, that's a pretty big crowd. but just becausear your first, doesn't meann you're going to be first in the long run. so she had that big moment on the debate stage earlier in the summer when she went after joe biden.
9:07 pm
on an issue important to the democratic base and then for some reason she took her foot off the gas. and the rest of the summer has sort of been a lost one for her and i think that's why even in her own state, as you point out, she's now pulling fifth. i think that she is somebody as a prosecutor -- she has the ability to take it to either biden or warren or somebody, but instead she made the decision at the last debate she would just take it straight to president trump as if they were having a general election contest and obviously that is not happening. i think that her funders areen probably thinking we might have to find another horse to back. >> tucker: i would think -- maybe her problem is a basic lack of authenticity. want to hear elizabeth warren say something, even something i find repugnant, which is often, i get the sense that she believes it. i do get that sense. with kamala harris, when she attacked biden as a racist, and she really was attacking him -- let's be honest, that's what she was implying, because he didn't
9:08 pm
support pressing, but nobody supported busing, including most black families, that such a fake pretext to attack the guy on. >> you mentioned andrew yang and here's the thing about andrew yang, he knows exactly what he's running for president. he can tell you. and he lands solidly on every single issue. that he cares s about. you might not agree with universal base income, but he can explain to you what he thinks it's the right thing to do. he's very well steeped in the problems of american manufacturing. i recently heard kamala harris switch strategies. remember, she was looking at south carolina, not spending too much time in new hampshire. they fixed that and said we better go to iowa. to iowa and she's talking a lot about the farmers and she can't seem to land andnd pull togethea natural group. i do think that she's going to have maybe one last flailing chance, right? but i don't know if she's going to be able to mount a comeback, and certainly not one when you have elizabeth warren getting the kind of attention that she's getting right now.
9:09 pm
>> tucker: so elizabeth warren -- age all of a sudden seems to be -- by the way, this show has not let the charge of age. >> i don't like it. >> tucker: i don't either, but elizabeth warren is -- but biden is getting hit on each. he is, by democrats, not just republicans. elizabeth warren is not that much younger than biden but no one has said anything. >> and bernie sanders is right up there. upsident trump is right there and i think that it all has to do a little bit with just energy and you're watchingre joe biden, your thinking gaffe after gaffe and does he mean that? the thing is that consistently in poll after poll, democratic voters are saying we are cool with that, we are okay with that. with no problem. but i think that for democrats especially, they'd be muchro better off if they want to take a tent -- put a dent into biden's campaign, actually attacked them in something or he is insufficiently liberal. president trump pointed it out when he talked about the crandall joe biden -- he knows how to really dig in. they are all just basically
9:10 pm
waiting to see if joe biden is going to crater. so far that hasn't happened and somebody is going to have to take a a shot. i don't know if it will be -- i don't know who it's going to be necessarily. maybe bernie sanders, but even for him ierni feel like he's not leaving any parades. there's no headlines but he's producing. the only one producing headlines right now is elizabeth warren. however, what is she not producing? black support. i think she's pulling at around 2% with african-americans. maybe that will change along the way, but there's going to be a reckoning that we are to cover it. >> tucker: i think she's sleeping the faculty lounge at wesleyan. if someone told me. >> let's be honest, you couldn't do that. >> tucker:r: know, that is such a good point! i could notha do that. it's because you cannot. that is something you could not do. >> tucker: dana perino, great to see you tonight. evidence continues to build that seemed initially like conspiracy theory may actually not be. for years congressman ilhan omar may have been in an illegal marriage with her biological
9:11 pm
brother. species of immigration fraud. many have alleged this in the past and it's looking like there could be some fact at the core of it. so on tuesday omar deleted a 6-year-old sweet wishing a happy day to a man. omar's ex husband -- in similar culture on manifesting his middle name is typically his father's name. that would suggest that this was a father and son. in other words, she would have been married to her biological brother. in a statement from a congressman omar's office gave the justification for deleting the tweet. she said this. "representative omar and her family are subject to constant threats to read it when people write vile things and about people she loves, she takes them down. it means happy life, it's been her dad's nickname since he was a kid. he has a public page with his family. she isn't deleting it for the disturbing hateful reasons that are being implied by conspiracy theorists and legitimate media outlets should not be spreading
9:12 pm
conspiracy theories," was gone. her office and other were trying to decide with the news media covers. we are going to ball forward anyway though in search of the truth and for that would go to scott johnson to make. as an attorney who writes for the blog power line. he has covered the story from the very beginning and he joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on tonight. what you make of the facts that she wrote this tweet in the first place? what does it tell us about the identity of her first husband do you think? >> well, i think it -- i should just say at the top, this is the third or fourth time you've had me on and i've been working on this story for three years since the won that dfl primary to run for state legislator three years ago in august of 2016. and it's become clearer every day in particular this year that she in fact married her brother in the year 2009 for fraudulent purposes and has been in a frenzy to delete social media
9:13 pm
evidence supporting that fact for the past three years. this tweet is one she somehow overlooked because it's kind of obscure, it's kind of in the weeds. you did a good job settingobsc p and look rosy at at daily caller also has a good piece with a long explanation with additional commentary on how this fits in. it's one small piece of the puzzle that i think establishes the fact in conclusion that what she did in 2009 is mary and her brother. she didn'the get around to divorcing him until the year 2017 and in between those years she committed fraud of a wide variety. of an incredible nature. we've never seen anything like it before. it's an incredible story and this one is ready for fox natio fox nation. >> tucker: it while it's a remarkable story. in fact it's soar remarkable tht it almost makes it hard to explain because it's just so crazy. she married her brother, she committed -- by the way, no one is suggesting there was any romantic link between them but
9:14 pm
they are suggesting it was fraudulent. so what is his statement on this? where is this man? have reporters spoken to him? >> the last reporter who spoke to him was a minneapolis reporter at the time in the year 2016 who actually tracked him down in london and communicated by email. she asked him whether he appeared with omar in a picture of the two of themed in london f i recall correctly and whether he married her and i believe he acknowledged that he was in the picture, but he didn't recall marrying her. but the interesting thing -- i reached the conclusion -- last time i was on you asked me what my level of certainty on the story was. i'm up to 100% based on my own reporting. the guy who hasn't talked at all, the real husband and father of ilhan omar's children, whom she has no estranged from because of the affair that has
9:15 pm
beenen covered by the tabloid media in new york and london. and my sources include friends who tell me as of last month that he is saying things such as i'm not going to go to jail for her, that she's been threatening him, that if he were to say anything he would be in just as much trouble as she waited and theou like. and it's made me conclude with absolute certainty that we are in the middle of an unprecedented scandal in which a member of congress married a sibling for fraudulent regions. >> tucker: this is a story that we should not ignore. it's not a prurient story, it's a serious story and we should not be intimidated or deterred from covering it. know that you won't be and i hope you will join us as you find more. scott johnson, thank for that. >> thank you very much. >> tucker: want to bring your fox news alert right now. leaders in the left of course delight in lecturing you about your moral inferiority and their
quote
9:16 pm
superiority again and again. but also as often they are exposed as butter hypocrites. the latest example the prime minister of canada, justin trudeau purity chief breaking news correspondent trace gallagher has more on this developing story. hey. >> hey. he speaking right now, we will tell you what he says in oneee moment. let me set the story. off the top portion of the canadian prime minister justin trudeau admits the picture is him. it shows him wearing brown makeup on his face, neck, and hands during a party in 2001. at the time the 29-year-old was teaching at a private school called west point gray academy. the school was holding in arabianra nights-themed gala he was dressed up as a character from aladdin complete with ropes, headrest and brown skin. the party was attended by faculty, administrators and parents in the photo was given to time, formally "time" magazine, by a vancouver businessman who was part of the west point gray community and the man said it's important the public see the picture.
9:17 pm
others identified in the photo did not respond to request for comments, but this is not. a god start to the prime minister's reelection campaign because he is already involved a scandal over whether the pressure of his then attorney general to drop corruption charges against the large and powerful canadian engineering firm. it also may not sit well with voters considering he has called himself a champion of minority groups in canada's many cultures. justin trudeau is of course the sum of the late canadian prime minister pierre trudeau. he is speaking right now. he was asked if he will resign, he did not answer the question. he has said that he did this before, this picture was not the first time. he acknowledges that at the time he did not think it was racist, but now he knows that it was racist. let's listen to him, watch. >> done something with this comment is that the only time in your life you've ever done something like that? >> when i was in high school i dressed up at a talent show and
9:18 pm
saying with makeup on. >> [inaudible] >> so clearly he is speaking french and english there but the english parties has look, it's not the first time he did this, he said he did it back in high school. he says het should have known better but didn't, didn't think it was racist at the time, was asked a couple of times if you would consider resigning. remember he has just started his reelection campaign. he kicked it off back on september 11th. he has now sidestepped the question a couple of times, says it was wrong, it was a youthful mistake and clearly he is looking for a little forgiveness in thisy, matter.
9:19 pm
>> tucker: you got it. as the lord's prayer suggests, you haves to forgive forgivenes in order to receive it. and gallagher, great to see you. top democratic donor has been arrested after another man overdosed on drugs inside his home. a man with a long history of injecting young men with narcotics. it happened three times before the police took action. the fact that he is a major democratic donor have some role inin that? will have details. plus climate is in a religion of the left and that means americans are either believers or sinners. what are you? that's just ahead. ♪ th ♪[upbeat music]

9:26 pm
believe the world is about to end. for clarity have underlying issues of anxiety and it's just really hard to grow up in a world full of ifs. i don't think a lot of people in congress understand thet conversations that are happening in everyday american has closed. it's just like this constant looming uncertainty and is this weird form of nihilism and weird just fear that's been existing in my generation where kids are joking like what is even at the point -- the world is ending, what are we studying for, what are we doing? and it's this kind of depression but it's not just me or my panelist here, but everyone and that anxiety is something that no child should ever have to fear. >> tucker: that's for sure. former supreme court clerk joins us tonight. ian, that is an anxiety that any shape to it should have to grapple with, it's being imposed upon them by teachers who knowle nothing about the science -- the
9:27 pm
world is not about to end, there's no evidence of that and the rest of us stand passively by as our kids are being filled with ludicrous propaganda making them neurotic. why are we standing for that? >> well, i think it's possible to assess the dangers of climate without inspiring that kind of doomsday anxiety because the truth is, my son is going to grow up in a world that exists in the question is is it going to be a nice well that is sustainable and one that he's happy and oars are going to be a world that has been damaged by change to the climate? not in a way that will create doomsday and wipe us all out, but that will actually just make everyone's life a lot worse. so that conversation i realized can be a little less of that bourgeois eschatology, the end of the world stuff that can be exciting but it is actually important to address that and that's why find some of that nbc news type stuff just eye rolling and this is coming from a person -- i really take climate change seriously, i believe in climate change. you see that news stuff and if like literally disgusting and bad. >> tucker: right, and it's so
9:28 pm
politicized and even those of us who care about the environment and know a lot about it in congress to anyone on nbc news, it makes us cynical, makes us feel like the whole thing is political and one of them main reasons i believe it is fundamental political is because the emphasis is never on the main climate criminal, which is china. if you take a look at the numbers, chinese energy production, the overwhelming amount of energy is produced by coal in china and they are wrapping it up, nobody on the left ever says anything about that, why? >> well, i think that you're half right. you're half right in that nbc news type view where it's all individual behaviors is placing the blame in the wrong place. it's really victim blaming. it's only normal people, hey, because you're growing up in a world where there's a massive amount of climate change happening, that you really didn't do anything to cause, you can't have a nice life and so you have to feelve bad about leaving the ac on. that's obviously not productive but what i would disagree with with you about is it's not necessarily that china or the reunited states or even any
9:29 pm
particular nation is the culprit. the culprit is global capital. the emissions are coming from our current energy system which is owned by this tiny handful of sort of capitalist interests who in the end are going to be fine no matter what. >> tucker: i'm kind of open to some of your economic there is but a total crock. the biggest polluter by far, the biggest carbon emitter by far is a socialist -- a communist nation, the marxist-leninist state. it's china. >> come on, you know just as well as i do -- show was say china's characteristics of marxism and leninism today don't really have anything to do with it. >> tucker: but it's not a market economy that's doing this, it's a socialist economy. if we really cared about the economy -- >> it's an economy that is being planned -- i agree with that. what i would say to you -- sorry, go ahead. >> tucker: last question, why is no one on the left pushing for punitive sanctions against china until it stops continuing
9:30 pm
to build coal plants for example? since her question. >> i would really want better, i will do punitive sanctions against any company that will do business with china to build coal plants and we can call that a great dome at green industrial revolution. >> tucker: and now your winning me over! great to see you. >> see, dialogue is possible. >> tucker: amen. it is a story straight from a horror movie. the california business owner bitten twice by homeless people and have to leave the state because of it. he joins us after the break. ♪ ♪[upbeat music]

let california continue not to survive, but thrive despite the headwinds, despite everything you're doing toyt try to put sad in the gears of our success. we'vesu got to find the areas where we are not performing and that's the issue of poverty, affordability, and homelessness and exploit those as a way of tearing down a new governing philosophy. >> tucker: a new governing philosophy. how is that working for you? he is certainly confident. if the citizens are not so lucky, they have to live with his policies. a business owner in the city of san francisco says he's thinking of abandoning san francisco after he was bitten twice by vagrants. he joins us tonight. thanks very much for coming on. it's hard to believe this is even real. this is like a dawn of the dead seen. you were bitten. tell us the circumstances. >> well, the last event, it was a guy who came in and we asked him to leave and he left and he came backk 15 minutes later to harass the employee and he hit
9:36 pm
somebody and it got really violent, some of the staff step subdue him and we try to call the police to have them intervene and arrest him. and in the process he decided to bitein me. and one of the statements he made was why are you even calling the police, they are not going to do anything, they are just going to let me go. so i said this time i'm going to place under citizen's arrest and wait for the police to arrive. and he was taken w away. and. it happened four months before as well. a woman came in who was drugged out whoed wasn't making any sen. we just wanted her to exit the store she just grabbed my arm and a bit it and dropped her weight when i was finally able to free my arm and i took her out of the store and i forgot about it but the second time -- >> tucker: so she was hanging on your arm by her teeth? >> yes. >> tucker: that's horrifying. >> yeah, she was not there in her mind. >> tucker: were you worried about getting sick to >> well, i
9:37 pm
had a sweater over it, so i looked at it right away and i put hydrogen peroxide and kind of took care of it. she didn't break my skin through my clothing, so i figured it was okay. i feel okay, it's been several months now for the first one. the second one i'm a there is damage, tissue inside because of a byte is very strong. >> tucker: is hard to believe this is america. you have a story -- do you have public bathrooms in your store? >> yes, and they are often used by a lot of drugged homeless people. if they do drugs in the bathroom. they sell drugs in the bathroom. i found a woman in there with a needle in her leg passed out turning blue. i had to stop what i was doing and call 911 and call the police and that occupies your time and is basically happens about every 15, 20 minutes, somebody from the street who is drugged out will come in the store and
9:38 pm
create havoc. >> tucker: you've got a homeless encampment outside? >> yeah, around the building. i actually live a block away and i see tents occupying the sidewalks were people have to go out into the street to walk by because there occupying the sidewalk. do all kinds of stuff on our street, they make noise in the middle of the night. >> tucker: i'm so embarrassed for our country hearing this. i'm horrified by this. summit up for us, iff you would, are you going to stay in the city do youin think? >> well, you know, i think the city needs to have a dialogue of some form with the community and bring it to a public forum. either with tv stations locally and reallyly talk about how we n address the issue and really make it work. the drug epidemic -- there's needles everywhere. my nephew's son was staying with me recently and they playing
9:39 pm
frisbee outside and he said to his son, can you watch out for the needles. that's a really strangeri thingo say to a 10-year-old. >> tucker: is horrifying. thank you for that first hand report from what was the prettiest city in our country. it's great to see you tonight. thank you.ig >> all right. >> tucker: michael has thought a lot about the subject. you just wrote a piece arguing it's time for california to declare a state of emergency over homelessness. thanks very much for coming on. so what would that -- i don't think anybody watching the show needs to be convinced that there is an emergency. what would declaring an emergency do? >> well, i mean this is a problem, as you know, you've done a great job covering it really where other people haven't, it's comprised of three separate issues. one is a major housing shortage. another is the drug epidemic in the other is an untreated mental illness problem. and in every situation, we are just basically suffering from a vacuum of leadership, and unwillingness from the governor to take the actions that he
9:40 pm
needs to take to demand accountability from the different agencies to just deal with this problem. it's not just housing, it's also -- we just got -- when i interview people basically somewhere around 100% of the unsheltered homeless on the street are either suffering from the old mental illness or some kind of drug addiction, or both. and it's just gotten so out of control. honestly, i didn't really believe it, and i live here, until i really started to investigate it and it's become chaotic. we areus dealing with a breakdon of social norms and social order like nothing we've ever had before. >> tucker: it so -- i mean, this touches all kinds of very deep questions about the nature of our economy and our social structure in my opinion, but does it strike you as odd that this is happening and what is in some ways the richest city in the world, san francisco? why would it happen there of all places? >> yeah, and i think like you said, it's sad, it's tragic, it's also embarrassing. i have a very personal connection to this because myy late aunt was schizophrenic and she was on the street for a long
9:41 pm
time and worried the family sick and we are a family of psychologists and people that are involved in social programs and not being able to deal with it. look, i just think that at bottom there's an ideology that's behind this that is an idea that people should be free to make their own choices. it weaves to have carrots and sticks to get people into drug recovery and also into mental illness programs. we've gradually gotten rid of the sticks and so there's basically no incentive for people to take the drug recovery or the mental health that they need and the truth is everybody in the world knows -- i was just in the netherlands, incredibly progressive country -- i talked to the head of one of their big programs, couldn't believe what he had seen in san francisco. there's nothing like this in the world. i have japanese friends come and they were just horrified. and it's like embarrassing. the idea that this is happening because of -- some people say it's an excess of empathy. it's hard to imagine that's what's happening on the street could be called anything like
9:42 pm

the pilot got an error light and turned back to the gate. mechanic then found a tube in the plane's navigation system had been deliberately obstructed, meaning the pilots would not have known thed airplane's speed, pitch, and other critical data. at least two 737s crashed in part because the pilot did not know the speede and the pitch of the aircraft. he said he wasn't trying to harm anyone, just wanted the overtime to repair the airplane. tucker. >> tucker: amazing story. trace gallagher, thank you for that. hillary clintonan has already assembled a very long list of excuses for why she's not the president. >> you can run the best campaign, you can have the best plans, you can get the nomination, you can win the popular vote, and you can lose thend electoral college and therefore the election. for these four reasons.

number one, voter suppression. >> tucker: at number, voter suppression. yesterday hillary clinton told us her latest. >> the russians -- wikileaks, same thing, dumped the john podesta emails. i have myma complaints about former director comey. the use of my email account was turned into, you know, the biggest scandal since lord knows when. they covered it like it was pearl harbor. if you look at facebook, the vast majority of the news -- news items posted were fake. there's all these stories about guys over in macedonia who are running these fakes i new sites. i inherit nothing from the democratic party. i also think i was the victim of a very broad assumption i was going to win. if the election had been on october 27th, i'd be your

president, and it wasn't, it was on october 28 and there was a lot of funny business going on around that. >> tucker: we reversed the sound bites but you get the point. eight separate reasons for why she is not president. notf one of which casts doubt on her ability as a candidate. none of it is hurtful. i would car is a radio host and author of what really happened, how donald j. trump saved america from lincolnton. thanks a lot for coming on. this is -- i know you have the exhaustive master list of hillary clinton excuses for not winning, but this latest one, voter suppression, what does that mean exactly? >> i think it means democrats as well as republicans are only going to be allowed to votee on once. she apparently doesn't like the fact that most people, democrats and republicans alike, think that you should have to produce some kind of idea. you have to produce an idea in this country to buy alcohol, to get on a commercial airliner.
9:51 pm
in a lot of states you have to produce i.d. to buy cough syrup at the pharmacy. in some states we have to produce an i.d. to buy spray paint at a hardware store and no one thinks it's an assault on democracy. all they. things she said i just was looking them over, the lack of election security.yo you know, we had a recount in michigan after the election, they went into detroit number 662 precincts, they found out in 40% of those precincts in the city of detroit, there were more votes cast then there were registered voters. do you think that lack of election security benefited her or donald trump? she was talking about voter suppression, quote unquote, in wisconsin. do youmi think it might have helped her campaign if she had campaigned in wisconsin? you just play deep -- she said you could run the best campaign. how would she know?
9:52 pm
she ran the worst campaign. cnn was even given her the debate questions and she couldn't handle it. she said our norms are under assault. she ran her on the country saying she was going to appoint supreme court justices who were going to overturn the supreme court decision, citizens united, in d.c. versus heller, which means basically -- if you read between the lines, she was going to got the first in the second amendments to the united states bill of rights. i would say that's a problem. she said the rule of law is being undermined. well, she got a subpoena to turn over her emails and then deleted 33,000 of them. without undermining the role of law? this is like groundhog day. having to listen to the stuff over and over again. there was a guy who wrote a short story about baseball players and there was a baseball player he wrote about, he always was making excuses. his name was alla by ike.

9:58 pm
world in 86-hours and could kill people. are we prepared for that? are you'm worried about this? >> i'm worried about this because flu is a very changeable virus, it mutates all the team. if we see a flu we haven't seen before and we don't have any immunity, we could see a lot of deaths for it. already in a regular flu season, it kills half a million people around the world and infects a billion. that is the flu we have the immunity for and the flu shot protects you against. if we saw a new strain, a serious one, not like what we saw in 2009 but a really bad one with air travel could spread around the globe in a matter of days. we wouldn't be prepared for it. we could make a pandemic vaccine but that would take months. we havet a flu vaccine in the pipeline but that will take years and we need it now.
9:59 pm
and why don't we have the kind of detection software we need to tell me if someone is sick before they get symptoms. people travel on planes, they cough and are next to each other, they could be in china one day and in new york the next day. flu spreads easily, on surfaces, in the air it can get quite sick, the cause pneumonia and other a infections. i want to know a person has it before they're sick. we have the technology for that and we're not using it. i want that flu vaccine we can use against all strains that come out. what is going to get news big trouble is a mutation, something that mutate from mys from mutaa bird-like creature. we've m seen it happen. bio terror, you can take fuel molecule in the laboratory, just
