♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." one thing we know for sure about elizabeth warren, above all else, is that on economic questions, she is a sincere populace. if warren deeply distressed by any income inequality because she probably just trust wall street and big tech. she hates monopolies and a massive multigenerational concentrations of wealth. if you are a private equity chieftain for example or a weed smoking trust of florian living off family money in jackson hole, you have to be terrified of elizabeth warren but how could you not be terrified? listen to her talk. >> now they have got your

fortunes and your money at managers and their p.r. and they are getting richer faster and faster and faster and everybody else is getting left behind. the well tasks, the 2% while t tax, god, i love that wealth tax. i'm not willing to give up and let a handful of monopolists dominate our economy and our democracy. it is time to fight back. see when it's time to fight back against the monopolists who dominate our economy! sound familiar? actually, that's not too far from my donald trump ran on in 2016 back before paul ryan and of the people got a hold of his economic program. this time around, all of the foreign plans to steal that message, the trump message. warn claims she is the radical populace, she is the disruptor. is she? let's see. emily is a woke liberal who often appears on television to talk about democratic politics.

she is the daughter of two billionaires so you would think that emily would hate elizabeth warren. she doesn't. instead, she demanded that you support elizabeth warren or else you are sexist. watch. >> actually overheard someone say what i thought was interesting point, that basically if you are supporting centers of as opposed to warren, it's sexism because she has more detailed plans that have evolved. i thought it was an interesting point and i think there might be something to it. spoon right. if you don't support warren, you are sexist. keep in mind, you sell one of the richest people on planet earth demanding that vote for it was with warren for president birds apprising, right? it turns out most of her supporters are the very people she claims she wants to fight. that's weird. so for example, in the third quarter this year, elizabeth warren raised more money in silicon valley from those monopolists she claims to hate than anybody else running for president.

spotify ceo is an elizabeth warren fan, so is venture capitalist and billionaire, chris hoffman. he arty maxed out to her campaign. then last month, charlie overrun fox business reported that elizabeth warren's campaign is making over turns to finance mobile's on wall street seeking contributions. some of them are responding. wait a second, why would elizabeth warreelizabeth warren, they got a b enemy is, why would her enemies on her campaign? we will give you five seconds. they aren't really her enemies. they understand that warren doesn't really mean what she says. they know warren's populism is a facade and underneath it all she's really just this is hillary clinton. faithful party robots, stalwart defender of the establishment, that's what it seems like she really is, is she? john mccarthy suspect she might be and he's a publisher of

harper's magazine and he's been the publisher there for more than 35 years so he's watched a few democratic candidates in his time. he's got a new piece out for the spectator in which he describes those with warren this way, as a left-wing populist for people who don't want left-wing populism. warren, he writes, may be more like hillary and anyone dares to say aloud. when the two women talk on the phone, as they do, maybe it's more about power than about good government. he joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on tonight. so you have watched this carefully. you sound, by the peace, like you are you are sympathetic to the idea of an authentic populist running but it sounds like you don't really buy would elizabeth warren is telling. why? >> because she's already announced to the regular democratic party, and i'm talking about the barons of the democratic party, the people who really run it day today, the clinton, obama's actions, their lives off wall street, that she

will not poach on their turf in terms of patronage and fund-raising. she signed a pledge that was put out by the association state given a saying i won't argue with you, i will be a regular party liberal, i will respect the party protocol, and i won't poach on your turf. i think she's being, to some extent, promoted by the establishment of the party to kill off sanders. her job is to kill off sanders so she's playing a double game get on the one hand, she mimics sanders, she's copying him to a tee, but on the other hand, she goes around loudly announcing that she's not going to rock the boat with the democratic party so you got to ask yourself the question, if you are a reformed minded democrat, can you reform the country without first performing the democratic party? that has been so corrupted by the clintons and to some extent by obama and the big money that comes in via wall street, that

it no longer has much of anything to do with its labor base, the unions, the working class, the people who use to count in the camper democratic party. today, these guys like steve ratner count much more to the democrats into the clintonites then any union president. >> tucker: so what's interesting is, those with gets up and says, for example, nontax, and sympathetic to this point, we need to bust up these monopolies, they have too much influence, she's absolutely right. on the other hand, you see people like these text barons, the cfo, i misspoke earlier, said of spotify, sending her money, so why would the cfo of spotify sent her money if she really thought she was going to break up spotify? >> i really believe they can water down her populism once they have knocked sanders out. she remains faithful to the democratic party --

i will give you good example. you notice the flap of tulsi gabbard lately were hillary clinton makes this wild accusation that she is a russian agent or russian accent and that she is referring for a third-party run, that's a way to punish sanders to hurt her. it sanders comes out and defends her, warren keeps her mouth shut. she says nothing good i think they have a nonaggression pact and that once you are in with te clintons, once you are compromising yourself to that extent, it is very hard to stick to principle. i'm worried that if she gets the nomination, and right now she looks like the consensus choice, biden's faltering badly, they are hoping that she can knock out sanders, if she gets the nomination, they can get her to water down her program and become a consensus democrat will make sure that the patronage and the fund-raising continues operating the way it always has.

>> tucker: is that why -- bernie sanders ran as an economic populace in 2016 and didn't say a lot about identity politics. in fact, he criticized open borders. elizabeth warren, by contrast, is running as a kind of woke identity politics crusader and an economic populace. can you be both? >> you know better than most that illegal immigration is a labor issue. it's a way issue. a lot of illegal labor on the market drives down wages for everyone. especially at the bottom rung of the latter. so to simply say that we have to be compassionate, which i think we should be, completely skirts the issue of wages. this is something trump hasn't addressed because he doesn't want to talk about it and i don't think he is interested but it's also something that the mainstream democratic party is not addressing. the minimum wage is still at 7.25 per hour and there are

still a lot of illegal labor in the country working for three or four codollars an hour. meanwhile, you have nafta and of the permanent normal trade relations with china still driving hundreds of thousands of jobs out of the country, moving to mexico, moving to china, and nothing is being done. here the democrats talk about it at all -- sanders is talking about it because he is quite sincere but you don't hear them talking about trade anymore. >> tucker: no. because they know where the money comes from. it's publisher of harper's and old fashion liberal, one of the few left, great to see you tonight. thank you. well, newly minted presidential candidate michael bloomberg has devoted much of his life to gun control as the mayor of new york city, he famously back to the so-called stop and frisk program that allowed police to search for illegal guns. they found a lot of them, by the way, bloomberg consider that program a success and bragged about it often, including here in 2013. >> today, we have fewer guns,

fewer shootings, and fewer homicides. in fact, murders are a 50% below the level they were 12 years ago when we came into office. that's something no one thought possible back then. there is just no question that stop, question, and frisk has saved countless lives and we know that most of those lives saved based on the statistics have been black and hispanic young men. >> tucker: so there's really not a lot of evidence they can control programs have worked ever anywhere, i believe the only exception is stop and frisk, which was been in new york for quite some time, and it's certainly a company that caused the massive drop in crime you saw. he would think that stop and frisk would be popular with the left. democrats have been more prominent than ever in their efforts with gun control and take your guns and ask for mandatory buybacks for weapons of war. again, stop and frisk is really only be a measure that has ever been proven to use get so-called weapons were off the street

before they kill people so democrats would report it, right? no. they hate it. why? because it's racist, of course. >> this is a puzzle though my policy that overwhelmingly put black boys and black men and black and latino men in prison which was seen as a civil rights violation. >> provided over in a administration that stopped in fact every black and latino and poor person that they could do is to go and then that ran new york city like in all gorgon ultimately supported and defended a stop and frisk policy that essentially mass incarcerated black and brown people. i have three words. stop and frisk. that will be the thing that will be the thing that would be the problem for michael bloomberg. >> he still defends this policy of stop and fix which impacted families like mine. it was my cousins and my friends that were stopped on the new york city subway system and racially profiled and padded down. >> tucker: so this is getting

a little confusing. we are joined by former clinton pollster, bernard whitman. thanks so much for coming on. i thought we were for all good liberals, we were for gun control, and keep hearing that, but the one gun control programs that has worked backed by a liberal, michael bloomberg, we are now against? what do you make of this? >> there is no question michael bloomberg has done an extra ordinary not to get gun talk on the streets of america. he has invested tens of millions of dollars, most recently, in virginia, to flip the legislator blue and enact gun control. i think it's going to ultimately lead to gun safety laws in virginia and -- >> tucker: i'm sorry that we had a gun safety law, we had the only effective gun control law i have ever seen, ask any criminologist, i wrote a book on this once, stop and frisk actually worked, and everyone is against it now but i thought they were for gun control because they wanted to make the streets safer. how do you score this? i'm honestly confused. >> there is no question is going

to face tremendous opposition from black americans and latinos because the policy disproportionally affected communities of color. at the end of the day, his heart was in the right place. get guns off the street, save lives, health maintain gun violence. the problem is, stop and frisk duties proportionally ended up blocking tens of thousands -- >> tucker: are you saying it didn't take guns, illegal guns, from gaining the in new york? >> i do but the criticism is that the number of guns taken was small compared with the tens of thousands of people who were sort of caught up in a system and ultimately alleges tens of thousands of young black and brown typically and then being incarcerated for sort of nonviolent crimes like marijuana possession or coming under suspicion of police activity which can lead to -- >> tucker: hold on. everyone is throwing this out. you know the numbers? was there actually a lot of men

in new york city who were incarcerated for marijuana possession? no. actually, there weren't. this is b.s. it's not -- it is b.s. it is b.s. what's the number? how many -- >> i don't know the number offhand what tens of thousands of people and hundreds of thousands of people were ultimately stopped and frisk input into a database. it was disproportionally affecting -- >> tucker: 's old but the public can go door-to-door and take away people's rights was at gunpoint? you don't agree with that? but the democrats -- i don't know. you had i think the majority of the forerunners of the democratic nomination say that they were formatted carry gun buybacks. that's okay? >> that the key part of that was beto o'rourke it is no longer a part of that. >> tucker: he was the most famous jenna demonstrated he was the one who said it was ball z but the rest of them asked in the majority of them said yes and that would include joe biden so he supposed to be moderate. that's okay but it's not okay to take illegal guns off the street because why? >> i think the record of stop

and frisk is quite next. if people believe the disproportionally targeted young black men and latino men and ultimately, because of being caught up in the judicial system, it ultimately caused a lot of harm and damage of people's lives. we will let me just say -- i just want to say this for the record, since this is a fact-based show, the line about how thousands of young people were put in prison for weed possession is a lie. that's not true. stop and frisk did not have that effect. there were thousands of people -- let me just ask you, does this make you rethink the other democratic gun proposals, gun control pulte proposals out there, like mandatory gun buybacks? are we really for -- >> you are seeking moral equivalence that doesn't even make sense. i don't believe in mandatory buybacks but i do believe in things like words like laws and things like not allowing people who are convicted of hate crimes to have guns. i do believe in things like limiting the size of --

>> tucker: okay. hold on paired weight. hold on. let's get it very specific very fast. limiting the size of magazines, so in d.c. for exempt, rounds maximum, and to felony data more than that. if what you will be in favor of sending someone to jail for having a magazine with the capacity for 11 rounds in it? yes? right. that is the law. that is the law in d.c., for example, where i am sitting right now, but you are not okay way stopping someone who's got a gun visible on the street and taking the gun away? >> i think any sane person, someone has a gun visible on the street, does not have a conceal and law, they should be revoked, absolutely. >> tucker: hundreds of thousands of people were stopped and discriminated against and that's the problem. at millions in a way for having a joint and they were executed. that's just all a lie. go to be chronic in the legal system at a crazy young age -- >> tucker: if we are against

carrying illegal guns come with go ahead and begin against that and the one program that actually works, we are not for the? i thought we were all for gun control here? >> the invitation had on president and consequences that -- >> tucker: well. there might be a few of those if you try to criminalize an ar-15 or other gear rifles. yet. thank you. well, a couple of years ago bernie sanders described open borders as the koch brothers proposal because it is literally a koch brothers proposal, it's a libertarian idea. he was right. mass migration reduces wages for low skilled workers but now sanders has changed his mind rated his campaign released an immigration proposal that looks like something the koch brothers would write that it would hold deportation, abolish enforcement, abolish i.c.e., and create a new category for something called climate migrants. justin haskins is a research fellow at the heartland institute heat. he joins us tonight to explain what i client a mag closet migrant might be.

why would a climate migrants have a right to come to my country? >> apparently climate migrants, which i don't even think are a real thing, are essentially a category of people from third world countries from developing nations who are supposedly suffering as a result of climate change. men called climate change. i don't believe anybody is actually suffering from men because climate change but bernie sanders proposal would have 50,000 people, 50,000, at minimum, come to the united states from around the world, who were suffering from climate change, supposedly, just the first year, it ended hundreds of thousands of people, because supposedly this is good for climate justice or something along those lines but the most bizarre part of all of this is that i thought, according to bernie sanders and elizabeth loring and everybody else, that human beings are causing climate change, that humans co2 emissions, that's what's causing climate change, and is going to be catastrophic. it is that's true, why are we

bringing people from all over the world where they produce co2 emissions less per person in places like mexico and guatemala and things like that, why are we bringing them to the united states where we produce co2 emissions per person at a much higher rate? >> tucker: also, if you cared about the environment, which i personally do emphatically care and go outside once it will and while, why would he want a crowded country? isn't crowding country your the fastest way to spoil it and polluted and make it a place he wouldn't want to live? >> absolutely great look for the left is schizophrenic on a lot of issues and this is one of those issues. it doesn't make any sense at all to have an open door, open border policy, where you are bringing people into united states where people are supposedly destroying the planet, destroying the environment, where we are talking about population control in some parts of the left right now, aoc says she stays up at night and she doesn't think she

can have children because she is worried about the effect it is having on climate change, but she wants to bring in hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of people from around the world into being and states. how does this make any sense? it makes no sense. >> tucker: i feel sorry for her. i mean this with sincerity because i think she means it, i think the movement that was started to clean up the environment, which most people, again, totally for that, has morphed into this weird cluster of neurosis where people actually think they can't have children because of climate and it's sad. i mean, it really is paging dr. freud. these people need help and we all need help. our society has gone crazy. justin, thank you for your part in making it a little bit less crazy. good to see you. well, the left is basically giving up trying to hide its contempt for you and anyone who doesn't live according to brooklyn. when we come back, the latest

from a philosophy lecturer at uc berkeley on rural america. it you will be ashamed of yourself. bottom line. we will be right back.

>> tucker: the rideshare company, huber, has fired more than 1,000 workers since july. that's about 2% of its workforce paired meanwhile, during the same period, the federal government has approved hundreds

of new h1b visas and that means they can replace those workers with foreign scabs who will work for less. it's like outsourcing but even easier because it would doesn't have to build a new building. something unusual about what it was doing. there is consensus in washington that we desperately need smart people from overseas to do the jobs that americans are too badly educated to do. the reason to fix schools, or make sure higher education is serious and nonfrivolous, we can just import people from countries that take education seriously. that's what we do. that's what the u.s. government passes out foreign worker visas to replace people like you who live 6,000 miles away. you probably haven't even heard of the f1 optional practical training program but in just four years, and 2009 to 2013, the programmer plays nearly half a million american jobs. the program allows foreign students who studied american universities to stay in the country after they graduate. in other words, we are going to

staple a green card to their diploma. you could have probably heard that phrase before. employers who use f1 b visas are not required to pay payroll taxes paid to get enough effective tax subsidy for hiring foreigners over u.s. citizens. how is that for america last? maybe the program would make sense if americans really couldn't fill all of those jobs but it turns out, there are plenty who could. just ask the thousands who were recently laid off blake uber paid a current according to the economic policy institute, nearly half of all american stem majors come that is people who study technology, don't end up working in stem jobs. isn't that weird? the only people who actually benefit from these visa programs are tech billionaires in silicon valley and the foreign nationalists who want to live in san francisco. our government makes it easy for them to do that. who gets hurt? among others, the college graduates who took on huge amounts of student loan debt only to be dumped into a system

where there foreign replacements get preference over them. this is happening on a grand scale and both parties are for it, including many republicans in washington. it tells you a lot about where their priorities are. a philosophy lecturer at the university of california berkeley went on twitter the other day and revealed his true feelings about everyone who lives outside of the city. the instructor who is a graduate student described rural americans as bad people who have made bad life decisions. he encouraged his followers on twitter to shame people who weren't pro-city and argued that health care gasoline and internet access ought to be at much more experience mike expensive for rural americans. no doubt, most people had berkeley shared his contempt . mark steyn moved here to rural america where he is lit for many years and he joins us tonight good what you think of this is a rural american? do you feel less good then your

compatriots in williamsburg brooklyn? >> i would not want to take a philosophy class from this alleged philosopher because you can say what you like about karl marx but karl marx at least understood that poor people are not bad people who make bad decisions. one of the consequent is of being poor is that you don't really have the freedom to make decisions. rural america has a lot of problems. the fellow across the street in my broker down loser new hampshire town, they paid $125,000 for their home when they sold it to duck a letter, they had to take 80 grand for it. the two other houses that were all for sale, they -- no one wanted to buy the men in the end they give in to the town on the town demolished them so when you sell $125,000 house for 80 grand, you can't to move to a city where you can't afford to live in a city.

i would say three things about the problems with cities bid the first thing is that some of them are murderers like chicago. the second is that in california particularly where this guy is from, and they are absolutely filthy great nbc in los angeles is reporting tonight, showing video of a man on the streets of los angeles dumping a bucket of diarrhea over a woman as she is getting into her car. you heard from your previous guests that all these people who want to save the planet. instead of being a narcissistic buffoon and trainers to save the planet, why not do something achievable like try to save your city, a city that can't even stop human waste in the street and putting human waste in the oceans and onto species. the third thing this guy doesn't appreciate because he treats them like hipster philosophers, is the best cities in the world are bifurcated, the middle class

is eliminated, they can afford to live there, you have the megarich end of the immigrants or events who service their lifestyles, and which domestic service or the breeze start starbucks, this guy is contempt. >> tucker: it was healthier when it was challenging power. children like this kid on the screen or handmaidens to power. what they are saying is shut up, america, and obey your masters. why does no one ever say that? they are not counterculture, they are the victorian guard for billionaires. >> right and it's actually a class warfare now. poor americans have outlived their usefulness. the megarich would rather have poor hondurans and poor sudanese and poor yemenis and poor americans can go to hell and this philosophers philosophy is fine with that.

>> tucker: i told you everything there and mark steyn who actually lives in rural america, good to see you. corporate america has never been more were woke, as you've noticed. left-wing embassy groups and of course, happily financial sex change operation. born it comes to pro-democracy protesters, that's fine with them as long as their friends in the chinese government are doing it and they are doing it. that story next. we believe at newday usa we have a noble purpose. our purpose is not just closing a loan. we want to do whatever's best for the individual service person. we want to be known as america's mortgage company for veterans and active-duty service people, and they and their families. we're the ones there to help them. people are doing hard, arduous, difficult, dangerous things. some of them are giving their lives right now, today,

for the freedoms that we have here in this country. they're willing to do that for you, for me, and for our family. so for us, at newday, to have the opportunity to turn around and help those people at this point in time. it's a labor of love, it's a noble service, and that's what we're all about.

>> tucker: at some point in the last few weeks, russians appear to have landed by submarine in the city of san francisco to wreak havoc on our culture working under the cover of darkness and leaving behind an enormous piece of visual propaganda. it was a mural of dictator, vladimir putin. at 50 feet high and in major american city, tonight, he stares i was flat slavic eyes over union square is below.

just as in soviet times. the portrait was appointe painto stealthily that even now local leaders appear to believe it depicts a climate protester from sweden come of course, the joke is on them. in the kremlin tonight, they are clinking chilled glasses of vodka and laughing. they hack our elections, and others hacked our murals. ♪ corporate america is officially woke and getting woke or by the day. the banks won't lend to gun makers, gillett wants to and masculinity, but nike pulled she was on the shelves because colin kaepernick colin kaepernick got offended by the betsy ross flight, the common stars ends and human resources order you to declare your preferred pronouns. all of that happening in plain sight and you are not allowed to complain about it. but when the chinese government murders protesters, no problem,e

are cool with that. [indistinct speaking] [chanting] >> tucker: gordon chang is author of the book, the coming collapse of china, he joins us tonight. would it be too much to expect some leader of american industry that does business with china to publicly call on the chinese government to maybe start killing people killing people? >> we would certainly like that but we are not going to hear that. unfortunately, we have american companies and with the chinese call -- with a local inhabitants called chinese occupied east turkestan and there we have american companies involved in a region where there are crimes against humanity, the worst abuses on earth. this is really distressing. >> tucker: weight so unpack this a little bit, if you would be at we have american corporate

presence near rounding up the interment in concentration camps of muslim ethnic and art minorities? is that what you are saying? >> yes. also we have a number american companies that have just generally supported beijing transferring technology to the chinese and we have them involved in places where they shouldn't be, including a part of the northwest of china, which is really horrible. >> tucker: you have to wonder why investors aren't saying anything about this. there are a series as activists, hedge fund managers, for example, who will go to companies and say we don't like the way you are doing business, we think you are operating inefficiently, and we are going to force you to do what we want. why don't any of them ever push nike, for example, to stop supporting the fascist regime of mainland china? >> they should. it's not just the question of morals, it's also the question on business because those places are risky from a business point of view, certainly from a reputational point of view,

because countries are starting to change their attitudes toward china because of sin jeong ends a company that is involved there, especially a american company, is going to run a risk that could affect the share value so they should certainly be disclosed and talk about introspection's and other filings. >> tucker: but it's not a no one else in corporate media mentions it. you never hear anyone on the other cable channels say any word about it. you don't hear presidential candidates, certainly on the democratic side, mention a very often. why is that? you go i think it's because we had this notion that we have to integrate china into the international system and also i think american companies are afraid of china. for instance, last month, apple took down a police tracking app from its app store because beijing demanded it and this is just bad behavior but i think it's because tim cook is really scared of what china might do to his market for apple products and by the way, last month, the same month you had tim cook go on an advisory board of ny

university school of economics and management, he is being sort of sweet talked into helping beijing, as well as being coheirs. >> tucker: it's just a little strange because presumably if the u.s. government rounded up hundreds of thousands of muslims and put them in concentration cans, and betting some of the ceos may notice and may be tweet about it at the very least. no? >> i think they probably would say something, tucker. we know that for very minor infractions, what they think, they won't do business with the pentagon. all sorts of issues that really just show a lack of american values and a lack of understanding of china's attack on our society. >> tucker: i mean, could there be a movement in congress to force some of these companies to take a side? either you or with the united states or you are with its mortal enemies? >> also the president of the united states could use his powers under the international emergency economic powers act of

1997 to force companies out of china or to stop certain activities of theirs in china so the president could do that as well. >> tucker: it would be nice to use executive power exercised once and a while. it gordon chang, great to see you tonight. thank you. apparently abc news executives killed internal reporting on jeffrey epstein. okay. we knew that. that story broke last week. ever since it broke, cnn has been covering up for abc. it why is that? what's going on here exactly? we hope to get to the bottom of it after the break.

one of the most important things you can do is to make sure you call 811 before you dig. calling 811 can get your lines marked. it's free, it's easy, we come out and mark your lines.

we provide you the information so you will dig safely. in the human brain, billions of nefor people with parkinson's, some neurons change their tune, causing uncontrollable tremors. now, abbott technology can target those exact neurons. restoring control and harmony, once thought to belost forever. the most personal technology is technology with the power to change your life.

itreat them all as if, they are hot and energized. stay away from any downed wire, call 911 and call pg&e right after so we can both respond out and keep the public safe.

>> tucker: and jeff zucker runs a television network, cnn, but he doesn't actually go on television, and he spends most of his time up in his leg is screaming into this speakerphone it is very various minions. one of them, the creepiest of all the minions, when jeff zucker has something to say, slithers forth and speaks for him like a ventriloquist on me. when he speaks, you know it's actually zucker talking and when he doesn't become you know it's because liquor told him not to. despite the fact this kid is supposedly a media critic, one story he is assiduously ignored is the greatest media story of the month/year and that's "abc news" anchor, her network killed reporting on billionaire, jeffrey epstein. it's a great story. why is cnn covering for epstein and his allies in the media and refusing to bring news of that story to its viewers? chad nick moore as a journalist based in new york. he's kicked around the journalism long enough to know things, as we say, and he joins us tonight. great to see you, chadwick.

why would cnn, why would set jeff zucker be covering up for abc which was covering up for jeffrey epstein? i'm confused. >> do they think that the american people are stupid? do they think the people in this world -- they do and what do they think there are people in this world who only get their news from cnn? that they don't know what's going on? i hate to break it to jeff zucker but people don't live in airports. they know what's going on, your silence is deafening, and i think that you mention the word cartel and i think that's right. i mentioned, guys been on this show before talking about how the media covers for their own whenever some scandal has broken or someone is in hot water whice day, and you know, they use these circling the wagon and project their own, i don't think that analogy works anymore. i think it's too cutesy. this is in the oregon trail, this is juarez and jeff zucker

is el chapo. the level of corruption is insane and these are supposed to be competitors, we would assume, the news business would want to maybe be delighted in what is their confederates having a tough time. >> cnn is liberal, obviously, they've identify their audience is liberal and people -- i get that. that's totally fine. but the epstein story isn't political necessarily. it really reveals the deeper agenda which is basically covering up for the people in charge however repulsive, corrupt, and criminal they are. that's really what it is, right? >> that's exactly right. the fact they said the story was squashed because they wanted an interview with will and kate for the 10,000 housewives that cared about the royal family, i mean, instead it's just powerful people, powerful well-connected people, and your right to point out it wasn't necessarily political and that is what makes it so disgusting and so corrupt.

>> tucker: you been in journalism a long time. is that what journalists are supposed to do? cover up and protect powerful people? >> of course not. i always thought journalists were supposed to expose powerful and exposed corruption and speak up like i did several years ago and will was blacklisted by liberal media when i saw things that had very bad behavior and i what we are saying as with any robot, being so obsessed with not the corruption or the injustice or not that many people were continued to get victimized after the story was spiked, but upset with the fact that she didn't get credit for breaking the story, this career defining story that she wanted her name on, and it fulfills this impression people have of journalists as the spineless egomaniacs who don't care about anything but themselves and working their way, climbing up the ranks. at nbc, it works for her. she became a coanchor wrote 2020 after she shut up and didn't fight this -- >> tucker: your obsolete right that i need to find an amoral block on the show until i read

your piece and a spectator been writing for that recently, you won me over with your point of view. >> at least call the police. you know? >> tucker: you're totally right. jeff moore, thank you to see it. good to see you tonight. two democrats are engaged in a grievance better. which politician is the bigger victim? pete buttigieg or amy klobuchar? oh, no! do it for mckenzie. he's not the victim. that's the hint. we will tell you the answer after the break. they're walking into a trap. you're good with maps, that true? good enough sir. your orders are to deliver a message calling off tomorrow morning's attack. if you fail, we will lose sixteen hundred men. [ dramatic music ] we need to keep moving. come on!

why in god's name did you have to choose me? you can't possibly make it that way man. you bloody insane? no, no, no, no... if you don't get there in time. it will be a massacre. we will lose two battalions. your brother among them.

>> tucker: be honest, nine months ago, how do you ever heard of pete buttigieg? the unknown mayor of a small crime rate in midwestern city? no. now he's a top-tier presidential candidate but how do you do that? we are not sure but his fellow presidential can annette, senator amy klobuchar, has the theory. >> i am one from the midwest to

his action will not ge get a statewide race over and over again and that's not true of mayor pete. it's just a fact. of the women, i am focusing on my fellow women senators and senator harris, senator warren, and myself. do i think we would be standing on that stage if we had the experience that he had? no, i don't. maybe we are held to a different standard. >> tucker: sexism! tammy bruce is the host of get tammy bruce, one of the best shows on fox nation. you shouldst subscribe to watch it. she's on the show today but what you make of this explanation? >> she's a sexist. here she is saying that a woman in his position would fail and why would that be? either she is a sexist, would have a different expectation of a woman, he's 37, he went to harvard, he is a rhodes scholar in the military, i mean it's a pretty impressive background for someone. let's say a woman has a background. i would expect her to come out

and if she's going to run for president, do you go ahead and do it and then fight for it and that's what he's done. i don't like him, i don't like any of the democratic candidates, but you have to hand it to them, they are out there ruining their lives, saying dumb things, and she comes after him. either she's a sexist or even worse, she believes -- remember, this is the voters, that the voters would be treating woman differently but this is the democratic primary season. these are democratic voters that she was accusing of being sexist. this is such a habit that they have, she's not even considering what she saying here. >> tucker: and of course knows that warren is doing just fine despite being a woman in this race. i hate to say it but i can't control myself but i noticed that amy klobuchar and her campaign poster has amy with an exclamation point. i've never seen a candidate with an exclamation point after his or her name with anything. have you?

>> no. i think wasn't the last one jed? yeah. right. it doesn't work. when i was on the left, we realized and we did studies that in fact, for women to move forward, they should highlight being women and that would mean using their first name so she is doing well in the debate as is mayor pete so she is using that aspect, believing it to help her with the same electorate that she is accusing of sexism. it may be as mayor pete had ever eaten a salad with his -- maybe that would even out the playing field. i don't know. but it is an interesting argument in its shameful because it's women. we say we are equal and we are going to play by the same rules and expect the same dynamic and it's getting very old to say that your trouble is based on other people or it's other people's fault and i think that's not going to help her at all to say the least. >> tucker: i think you're right. i have a soft spot because i'm

married to a woman from the midwest and her accent -- >> but really he was the one who has who is that i'm from the midwest. i think she's jealous that she probably does not view him as a serious person, can't really admit that, and she's jealous he's doing well because she's played by what she sees as the rules and maybe he didn't because he is and she's jealous about not being the one category that can be victimized in this line. she's got another person who can be a victim in their point of view whereas really, in fact, neither one of them i've had wouldn't that be a lovely theme? >> tucker: i think that's exactly how everyone in that party sees the world. you know? it's also bizarre. tammy bruce, great to see you. thank you for the clarity. that is it for us tonight. sadly. we will be back tomorrow night, tuesday night, and every weeknight at 8:00 p.m., the show that is the sworn and totally sincere enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness, and groupthink. as the week begins, we would

encourage you to think about dvr eating it, if you can, and i failed but i suspect you will be better. good night from washington. guess who's next? live from new york city, taking over the 9:00 p.m. hour, ladies and gentlemen, sean hannity. would you time to wake up. tucker, thank you for a great show as always. welcome to "hannity." by the way, thank you to the braves men and women with honor and distinction and you give us more freedoms and liberties and we can never repay you and tonight we honor you had also tonight, we are going to break down all of the insanity, the madness that is going to enfold us we. all of that hypocrisy, you've got the do-nothing hypocritical socialist democrats, everything they've got planned for the week and frankly beyond in the next 358 days or so until election day, i can only get my volume up here, somewhere, it's not working. anyway, we will also break down
