lower a1c and lower risk of a fatal heart attack? on it with jardiance. ask your doctor about jardiance. ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to tucker carlson tonight.ic america is a great country, precisely to the extent that it's a fair country. fairness is the most important american idea. if the foundation of all others. and equality before the law is the purest expression of it. that's why the roger stone case ought to horrify anyone who has followed it. left or right, republican or democrat, it doesn't matter. nine years in jail for lying. that's what prosecutors have demanded that roger stone receive. how disproportionate is that sentence? let's put it this way, james clapper and john brennan are both confirmed perjurer's. they did it in public. they will never be prosecuted.
9:01 pm
at this moment they are getting rich on television. meanwhile, for the o crime of sending s explicit photos to a child, the serious melanie, former congressman anthony weiner got just 21 months and he served less. he was an admitted sex offender, but he was also a close personal friend of h bill at home clintos and in the end that's what matters most. see how this works? prosecutors want roger stone to serve nine years not because he hurt someone or hurt this country, he didn't, but because they hate him. as stated liberals they hate liberal politics. but above allit the hate is attitude. stone madede fun of the ruling class, that's not allowed, and they never forgot it. they're trying to kill him for it. how is google's are they in pursuit of that goal? well, prosecutors lied about what stone did. they linked into foreign election interference when he had not tiedo to that and it had nothing to do with the charges against him, not one thing. then, apparently, they deceived their superiors at the department of justice about it.
9:02 pm
attorney general bill barr suggested as much today, watch. >> i was under the impression that what was going to happen was very much as i had suggested, which is deferring to the judge and then pointing out various factors and circumstances. on monday night, and i first saw the news reports, i said gee, the news is spinning this, this is not what we were going to do. >> so you're surprised? >> i was very surprised. and once i confirmed that that's actually what we filed, i said that night to my staff that we had to get ready because we had toto do something in the morning to amend that and clarified what our position was. >> tucker: it now, thanks to details we just learned, and you have to ask yourself why are we just learning them, but we know them, and they lead us to conclusion that the charges and recommended sentence against roger stone was the only parts of thenl process that were distorted by top politics.
9:03 pm
grotesquely. the trial itself was too. during the jury selection process at roger stone's trial, lawyers at the eventual foreman of the jury if there was anything that would affect her ability to judge stone fairly. no, she claimed, she hadn't paid much attention to the russia probe. that turned out to be a lie and a stupid one at that. that juror's twitter account is public and it turns out that she's an anti-trump zealot who closely followed the mueller investigation. and once tweet,ru for example, e called donald trump "the klan president. winstone was taken into custody in a dawn raid by dozens of federal agents are armed with weapons and an airboat, she mocked the idea of the arrest was excessive. seems fine to me. this is not a neutral person. this is not someone capable of judging this trial fairly. this is a partisan who lied about she was. roger stone is facing life in prison because an obama appointed judge, amy berman jackson allowed this woman to
9:04 pm
run the jury. that's all fine with cnn. which is colluded with the justice department from day one on this. and which is written for stone to die behind bars. it should be deeply upsetting to anyone who cares about fairness, and that should be all of us, but it's not. for example, republicans and the senate. if you think they'd be outraged by all of this. and yet it's perfectly obvious they could care less. watch. >> whether or not to be political interference in these cases, but i'd rather look at the details before i answer hypothetical. >> [inaudible] >> i made the decision, and assumed -- seriously atat this point. >> didn't rule it out. already been convicted on seven counts. >> they didn't rule it in. >> [inaudible] with epi of that idea? >> he hasn't said he would do it, so wedo will wait until that happens, if that happens.
9:05 pm
>> tucker: eight yeah, whatever, not really paying. attention. naming new post offices. if you're republican voter, and you may be, these are the people you vote for to protect you and your country. i think they will? democrats, meanwhile have whipped themselves into a frenzy of blood lust. roger stone must rock behind bars. if the president tries to save roger stone, we will impeach him again. >> might you impeach them over this? over roger stone in the sentencing? >> you know we are not going to take our options off the table. we don't wake up in the morning wanting to impeach him. want to work with him on prescription drugs, background checks and infrastructure, but we are not going to letwe him jt march this democracy because he thinks that he's been let off once and we're not going to do something about it. >> tucker: eric swalwell may be the slowest of the 425 house numbers, certainly in the running. 435. but even he can remember talking points. so this is among their plans. another impeachment. why would they do that? why do democrats care so much
9:06 pm
about punishing roger stone? here's why. because if roger stone spends even a day in jail, they will point to him for the next 40 years as evidence that russia ascollusion was real. that's what they really want. let's hope the president doesn't them have it. judge andrew napolitano is a fox news senior judicial analyst, we just spoke to him about roger stone. >> tucker: thanks so much for joining us today. in your view, is it a problem that the foreman of the jury in roger stone's trial turned out to be a former democratic congressional candidate who attacked trump on twitter and mocks concern i think most critically about the fbi raid on stone's house. why would someone like is allowed to remain on the jury? >> let me start by telling you i'm happy to be here with you. in roger stone and i have been friends for about 40 years. i'm going to take the friendship equation out of this and where my judicial hat. this is information that she must have hid -- hidden from the
9:07 pm
lawyers and the judge who interrogated her before she was put on the jury. now, in federal court, judges pick the jurors, so judges do the interrogation, the lawyers sign up ahead of time on the questions the judges are going to ask. the purpose of the interrogation is to weed out people that have a bias, prejudice, knowledge of the case or interest in the outcome. she obviously hadio a prejudice against roger stone, a bias in favor of his prosecution and an interest in seeing him convicted. that should automatically disqualify her. what do you do when you discover this after thehe conviction tucker? the proper thing for the judge to do is to bring this juror back in the courtroom, the presence of roger stone and his lawyers and in the presence of the s four prosecutors who have since resigned, because the regulations are not effective until the trial judge accepts them and interrogate this woman in order to determine whether the bias influence her guilty
9:08 pm
vote and whether that bias was passed on to other members of the jury. >> tucker: so -- that's interesting, that sounds i'm a layman's perspective like the right thing to do.or though, i mean, this court screens for bias of course in jury selection. if it turned out that this juror, who ran the jury as the foreman lied about her background or her reviews, what would that mean? >> well, it would be catastrophic for her. first of all, she has a lawyer, so she would've prosecuted for perjury since the statements are given g under oath. and if convicted, she would lose her license to practice law. that would be the least of her concerns. she probably would serve jail time if she lied in order to affect the outcome of the case and if she did lie, if the judge concluded she lied, tucker, that is an automatic vacation of the conviction and in order for a new trial if the government even wants the try stone a second
9:09 pm
time. speeone's or judge jackson has kept roger stone under a gag order for many months now. he makes his living by speaking, of course, he is not broke as aw result. i'm confused, we can go on television and attack roger stone, cnn does it all day long, they did it today, roger stone is not allowed to defend himself using the first amendment rights the rest of us enjoy. how is that allowed in this country? >> it is highly inappropriate and a direct violation of the first amendment. there is at least an argument to be made about restraining both the defendants and the prosecutors from making statements about the case while expanding because those statements might make their way to the jury. that's an extra courtroom way of communicating with the jury, and i hate having to do it but there are some times that only way you can assure the integrity of the trial. but there is zero benefit to be served to thece justice system d silencing a defendant after he's been convicted. once conviction comes down or
9:10 pm
acquittal, as the case may be, the defendant resumes the full panoply of first amendment rights that he had before the case started. >> tucker: you would certainly think. and finally, the sentence guidelines here. so the median rapist in this country serves about four years in prison. nine yearsio is the top end of e recommendation for roger stone. with that in context for us. why would they recommend that? >> probably because they dislike him. they despise him. listen, if you despise this person you're prosecuting, you probably shouldn't be in the case. i do the calculation myself as if i were the judge. tucker, there is some subjective elements to the calculation. there are 20 questions, aggravating factors, 20 mitigating factors, you have to choose the factors that apply. i came up with three and a half years. this is just a recommendation. she could sentence him from 0-50 years.
9:11 pm
under the new law that president trump signed, she is no longer bound by the guidelines. it's just a recommendation. so when the public became aware of this recommendation, most of us were outraged. roger stone is not a menace to society. this isn't the jail case to begin with. much less one of this magnitude. the judge is free to reject it but now we don't know what she's going to do. in my view, shee has to examine the integrity of the trial and the conviction before she proceeds to sentencing. >> tucker: il. doubt she will. judge, thanks so much for a prospective tonight, we appreciate it. >> pleasure, tucker. >> tucker: well, humans ted talk pete buttigieg is often described in the press as a moderate. of course, it's impossible to be an actual moderate in the current democratic party. all of them are long p gone. so one flank of mr. moderate buttigieg's agenda is decriminalizing drug possession
9:12 pm
nationwide. and that means all drugs. that's not a roach clip, that's crack cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, that's fentanyl. legalize them all. how decadent and out of touch would you have to be? you would have to be like a road scholar mckinsey guy to think that was a good idea. by the way, mayor pete's plan is already being attempted in the city of seattle. (prosecutors there have abandon almost all drug prosecutions. so how's it going? is it working? jason rance is the seattle radio show host and joins us tonight. thanks so much for cominges on. so simple question, pete buttigieg is telling us we need to do this, it's y essentially happen where you live. has it worked? >> simple answer, no, it has not worked at all. i what we are seeing here unfortunately is an increase over the last ten years when our prosecutor in king county dan soderberg decided first not to charge melanie accounts and then he chose instead not to charge anyone with quote unquote personal amount of possession, so to your point, crack cocaine,
9:13 pm
methamphetamine, whatever. and what we seen at the same time as a dramatic increase in the amount of overdose deaths. at the same time, we've also seen a dramatic increase in the amount of drug deals thatt are happening out in the open in seattle streets. a big part of the problem is that cops will say, now they don't really have any leverage to use over addicts to get them to seek treatment, because they know that there's actual consequences. at the same time, you've got the drug dealers who are less product on them. they resupply, they restock up on the supply more often they would normally do. but they know that if they were to get stopped, if they had some product on them, they can say no, i'm not a drug dealer, i'm just ay user and they know that they're not actually goingno to see any time in jail for their drug crimes. andut that's why it's gotten so out of control. it's been a totalal failure. >> tucker: so you've got to wonder if the people behind this idea had ever met a drug addict or had one in the family or done -- like do they understand
9:14 pm
the sum total of human misery that they are creating here? care?y >> sedans at a brick dust, this king county prosecutor. he had a sister who he lost to a drug addiction. the problem with this, when you put ideology into what is a reasonable idea because i do think it's reasonable to say if you're an addict and you're not committing a crime -- i don't want to destroy you in jail, i want to put you in treatment, i think that's the right thing to do -- >> tucker: or helping someone for sure. >> you at least try to help the people that you can, but you can't even at this point leverage jail time against an addict to go after the drug dealer, to turn on the drug dealer to go after the bad guys. and it's an unfortunate reality all across seattle. they tried it in the neighboring county and it was a total disaster. so they actually do the right thing, which was they got rid of that policy. >> tucker: i hope pete buttigieg takes a close look at seattle. i'm sure he'll like what he sees. >> he's in a moderate. >> tucker: thank you so much. >> thank you. >> tucker: that's for sure.
9:15 pm
9:16 pm
9:17 pm
9:18 pm
9:19 pm
9:20 pm
plan. make phony campaign ads to pander to black voters. here's one. >> we don't feel no ways tired. we've come too far from where we started. nobody told me the world would be easy and i don't believe he brought me this far to stop now. you don't like what's going on in this country, you only have one thing to do, work. together we can and will win. let's take back this country n now! >> tucker: a normal person would look at that out and say, you know what, guys, we can't run this, it's too embarrassing, it's too fake, that's not who i am. no one is going to buy it! joe biden said run it. he's not the only one degrading himself for votes. tuesday night, pete buttigieg suggested that if minority voters want to survive they've got to vote for him. >> when people of color fear for their own place in their own country while infants are torn from their parents at the
9:21 pm
border, we must get this right. we can say to a young woman in a hijab, enduring taunts because of her religion, to a young man, feeling fear instead of safety when he spots the lights of a police vehicle, we can say you belong securely in the heart of the american [inaudible] >> tucker: man is it repetitive. this stuff. tremor dark as a contributing editor at national review online and join us tonight, great to see you. >> great to see you. >> tucker: some supers have a question. if the biden spot that we ran. we ran it last night too, probably run it to him on it because it's the most fascinating thing i've ever seen, do you think that will move a single vote? their human being in this country was going to look at that and say, you know what, he -- that's like the modern ralph abernathy right there? >> i don't think that's probably the reaction we are going to get it all. offensoffense of this idea that democrats run in the south, they got to adopt southern accents. funding and hillary clinton has done, joe biden, you may recall,
9:22 pm
was in virginia i think back when he was running for reelection as p vice president. he said to a group of black people, if mitt romney ran, y'all are going to be back in chains. it's like outtakes of gone with the wind, very odd, very inappropriate and very stupid. >> tucker: well yeah. so i think what you're describing is patronizing behavior. it's like slowing down the cadence of your speech, using simple words, babying someone. i can't think of anything more>> insulting than that. >> it's totally insulting. why not talk to black people as adults and say, you know, we're going going to listen to your situation. not all black people are terrified of the police. we are all running away from the cops, why not talk to black folks about starting businesses, running businesses, expanding businesses, going to work, going to the movies, going out to dinner. black folks do things like that. being black in america is not all about running from the cops, they tasted on the street with batons, which is i guess the buttigieg kind of stereotype is
9:23 pm
presented. speeone's a a really quick i jut have to get your view of biden and not just that add bit of the campaign more broadly. for months he's been saying, and he's been saying it this week, n didn't do well in iowa and new hampshire because they are too pale but once they get down to south carolina, boy, i'm in. do think it's going to happen? >> i think he's fallen so far back. i think the thought was, well, he someone who can beat trump and therefore back biden. i guess that was the thinking. now we just had these embarrassing showings, you may have heard in nevada as well. and i think the wonderful sort of electability halo he had is now complete was shattered. so he may continue toon stumble down -- down into the memory hole and eventually does disappear. >> tucker: he should be run for president. he's done a lot, he's not good at it. ii played paddle tennis a few times, wasn't good at it, i gave it up. you know what i mean? dr. things are not good at. >> i think he would've left it alone and is really made a fool of himself. >> exactly. don't degrade yourself and your final years.
9:24 pm
9:28 pm
it's unacceptable that americans pay vastly more than people in other countries, for the exact same drugs. but they aren't listening. they've just raised the prices of over five hundred drugs. president trump supports a bipartisan plan, that would force drug companies to lower prices. but the senate won't act. tell senate leaders to stop drug company price gouging and lower drug prices now. >> tucker: japan confirmed its first coronavirus death yesterday. here in the u.s. the number of cases has risen to 15.
9:29 pm
slowly but surely the disease is becoming a threat to the planet and the scale of that threat became clear yesterday in china with almost 15,000 new cases and 242 more deaths on wednesday, it's clear that even china's authoritarian government can't keep this under control.'s dr. marc siegel is a fox medical contributor, he joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on. if you were to graph the south, it seems to point up, that's the trajectory from a layman's perspective of this virus. are you more concerned than you were? >> and becoming more concerned. first of all, the internationalr health community is in a state of outrage over the way that this virus has been handled in china from the very beginning. we believe that they knew about this for weeks before it ever started to come out or was even declared. now they are sayingde well, we e running low on test kits, tucker, so we have to start using chest x-rays and cat scans to diagnose it, but pneumonia we see in 15% of cases, and that points to a larger problem.
9:30 pm
how many thousands of cases are out there in china that are still undiagnosed or were never diagnosed? the head of the cdc pointed out today that we think within the first week you can spread it a symptomatically before you even have symptoms. all of this points to it still not being under control. we still don't have the centers for disease control in there to help out. if neighboring countries are starting to get more and more concerned about this. physicians having to diagnose this without all the material they need and the ability to isolate patients is very worrisome and eventually it's going to spill over to the rest of the world potentially causing a pandemic. i want to point out a neighbor right next to china, north korea, the hermit kingdom, is claiming today if they don't have a single case. i ask you, tucker, do you believe that? i certainly don't. talk about lack of disclosure, a virus is something that doesn't obey boundaries. it's public health. at the world needs to come together here to solve this problem before it really gets
9:31 pm
out of control. >> tucker: the spanish flu of 1982 made it to the most remote islands comes littles everything. thanks for the update, we will see you soon. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: a week ago on the show we told about the new way forward act. if passed, that law would welcome dangerous and violent criminals into the united states, let them stay here, event if they commit more crimes, and then, amazingly, require taxpayers to pay for criminals who have already been deported to come back to our country. you get to buy plane tickets for armed robbers to move here from guatemala. it's a lunatic. the bill wouldn't just remake american immigration policy, it would remake the country itself. that's the point, of course. as supporters of the bill often say, openly, america's criminal justice system is racist. if you want crimes punished and criminals kept out of your country, you are racist too. only a truly radical party would consider a piece of legislation like that. the democratic party of 2020 is every bit that radical.
9:32 pm
ifes democrats would make this year's presidential election, esome version of this insanity will almost certainly become law. but immigration isn't the only issue in which democrats have become dangerously radical. it's now virtually every issue, including, believe it or not, banking regulations. america has about 8,000 separate banks and credit unions and every one of them receives what's called a camels rating. the rating evaluates a bank's financiall health based on its assets, earnings, sensitivity to market risk and other relevant factors. crucially, all six parts of a camelsls score a financial in nature, as you would imagine, or related to running a functioning business. bad camel scores don't just mean a bank is in danger of failing and that investors should be wary of it, no, low scores frequently trigger regulatory intervention by the federal government. they can destroy a bank. it's a big deal. now congressional democrats are pushing to add a seventh factor to the camels rating, a nakedly political one. a bill called the eroding
9:33 pm
diversity and inclusion in banking act is currently working its way through the house. the bill would impose aks so-called diversity mandate on banks if they want to stay in business. we are not talking what diversity of assets. that might make sense. no. this is the age of waukomis. nobody cares about math anymore. instead regulars would monitor banks to see that they are providing enough antibias training and it would keep track of their hiring practices based on race. they get out the letter and see what color everyone is. any bank with more than a billion dollars in assets would be required by law to have something called the diversity and inclusion officer reporting directly to the ceo. why are democrats doing this?e to make the country better? right. no. it's a shakedown, like everything else they do. listen to the strikingly clear exponential from house financial services subcommittee on diversity and inclusion. >> we need to change it and we need to change it right away. the excuse of we can't find
9:34 pm
any -- that's what i'm hearing from some of you, that's not acceptable. when you have power, you have to use it. we have the power. regulations may be the thing to do. i think the carrot was a good idea, but after having heard things today, i think we've got to move now to the stick. that's regulation. >> tucker: when you have power, you've got to use the stick. that's congressman al green of houston. at the same hearing, green pepper and witnesses with questions about whether it was time for "race conscious regulations in banking. he probably had no idea race had anything to do with banking, and most americans of course had no idea that any of this was going on. but banks got the message loud and clear. higher diversity commissars, the same kind that have done so much to destroy higher education in america, where the feds will crush you. so where are congressional republicans this is been going on? take a guess. as is so often the case, they're playing along. at the same diversity
9:35 pm
subcommittee hearing,bc ranking member and widener of missouri raised banks for their work instituting unconscious bias training. by the way, something that has never been shown to do anything other than deepen racial wounds and divide this country. ever. it's a given that all this is stupid and wasteful and divisive, it certainly is.e but it's also dangerous to the country. so we already know what happens when the government pressures financial institutions to make financial decisions based on political considerations. we've seen it, recently. starting in the early 90s and continuing for both democrat and republican administrations, banks face steadily rising pressure to make more risky loans to borrowers with lower income. thinner credit histories and a much greater risk of default. the banks complied. they were afraid not to. so millions of americans received subprime loans. remember that? down payments or cot, or eliminated altogether. in most cases, the intentions behind this weren't bad,pe
9:36 pm
actually. the government wanted more people, especially people in minority groups, to own homes. again, that's a laudable goal. home ownership is a good thing for everyone, it gives all of ue a stake in our society, something to be proud of and by the way, a legacy to leave our children. but the way to remote home ownership is to make homes less expensive. and to create an economy robust enough that people can't afford to buy them. they didn't do that. they ignored reality. if that doesn't work, it never works. but for years, the government demanded that banks follow the rules where there they made sense or not, and the results, as you remember what was the 2008 financial melt on, the worst economic crisis in this country in 80 years. since 1929. america still has not recovered from it. laura currently has has congress learned a thing. we live in the age of local colleges and woke tech companies, woke investment banks, now we have -- of course. we do, woke dating. mark steyn joins us to discuss
