9:00 pm
♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." looks like bernie sanders may well be the democratic nominee. not a lot of people saw that coming, but it is coming. what would it mean for the country? the first part of our special series on bernie sanders' america errors in just a minute, you're going to want to watch that. but first night, the coronavirus epidemic continues to cause chaos around the world, not least in the financial market. the dow jones average dropped by 1,193 points today. if that's single biggest drop in a day i in the history of amerin markets. this week has been the market's worst since the financial crisis. friday could add to the damage. meanwhile, other nations are
9:01 pm
washing an exponential increase in coronavirus infections. south korea reported 505 new cases in a single day. the band has closed all schools nationwide for the month of march. in iran, the vice president has coronavirus, so to several members of parliament. saudi arabia has trucked on pilgrimages to mecca. here in the u.s. we have our first coronavirus case. it's of unknown origin, it's not linked to travel. that's an ominous sign. we will certainly have many more. currently california's monitoring 8,400 people for signs of the virus. the world is panicking over this and there's a reason for that. in china, the virus has already killed more than 2500 people. but that's only if you trust china's numbers, which no sober person does. the actual number is likely much higher than that. but that's just the beginning of what we don't know. we are not really how coronavirus spreads. we don't know what the mortality rate is over large populations, especially as health services become overstretched, and they will. at this date, we are not even sure where it came from.
9:02 pm
but there is something we do know and it's this. a lot of the people who should have been preparing to defend us from this have not been doing that. the cdc, which is america's main line of defense against infectious diseases seem to be caught off guard by it. at the center bungled the testing rollout for coronavirus. that means it still only a few hundred people in america have been screened for it. so what was the cdc doing instead? well, it was doing a lot of things. according to information from openthebooks.com, two years ago, cdc gave georgia state university three quarters of a million dollars to study social determinants of health in a diverse neighborhood in georgia. what did they learn from an experiment? nothing that helps us fight a rising pandemic. another 300,000 cdc grant funded a look at how an american indian tribe in washington state could improve health outcomes by eating traditional foods. go to the cdc's website sometime. it includes an exhaustive section lecturing parents on how to properly administer timeouts. one suggestion from the cdc, put
9:03 pm
toys in timeout. instead of children. who was in favor this garbage? nobody, really. least of all the many good people at cdc, and there certainly are. in fact, you've got to think the overwhelming majority of doctors and researchers at the centers for disease control and prevention are there because they passionately want to control and prevent diseases. it's not their fault. it's our policymakers who cannot resist making everything ideological. their main goal is not keeping you safe. if it was, they wouldn't be letting rapists out of prison and pushing weight on your kids. the real interest is getting richer and more than that, feeling good about themselves. protecting america does not make them feel good about themselves, it makes him feel guilty. when the president and post even mild travel restrictions on china last month, they attacked him as a bigot. as he pointed out last night. >> had i not made a decision very early on not to take people from a certain area, who wouldn't be talking this way, would be talking but many more people who would have been infected. i took a lot of heat, some
9:04 pm
people call me racist because i made a decision so early. we had never done that as a country before, let alone early. so it was a bold decision. it turned out to be a good decision. >> tucker: cnn, meanwhile, attacked the administration's coronavirus task force as "another example of trump administrations lack of diversity." as if the color of the doctor's matters. it does not matter at all. a month later, cnn warned that the real threat of coronavirus was racism against asians. during last night's presidential press conference, "the new york times" complained that the presentation was "only one woman on stage surrounded by nearly nine white men." again, counting by race. if there was ever a time to drop that dumb and dangerous it's now as a global epidemic bears down on our country. but they can't stop doing it, and they won't, because in the end, they care more about identity politics than they care about your life.
9:05 pm
president of viagra for summed it up about as crisply as a man could when he explained that his "greatest anxiety" about coronavirus is that it might damage the global diversity agenda. >> it seems to me that my greatest anxiety, aside from the impact of the virus itself is we are living in an age of xenophobia. and it is not impossible to imagine a scenario where blame is cast on some country or group of people if this becomes worse. >> tucker: more afraid that blame might be cast then afraid that millions might die? that's it right there. that's the attitude that has left us vulnerable to coronavirus. whatever weird guilt trip these people are on ought to be left to them and her psychiatrist to sort out, and it will take a while, but under no circumstances should they be
9:06 pm
anywhere near power. people will get hurt if they are buried because they don't care. a scary is a "washington examiner"'s column, author of the excellent book. which demonstrably day. joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on. you spent a lot of time thinking about this mind-set. we are facing what could become a pandemic. thousands have died and get a certain segment of well educated america is more concerned that people might say insensitive things. explain the mind-set behind th that. >> you said it perfectly inner monologue. i hate to say that, but i could use a lot of that in my book. they care more about ideology than they care about the actual -- what's actually happening. yes, it turns out most people in america, even the chinese, don't want the commie cough, but we are all hearing nowadays who's the privilege and was the victim?
9:07 pm
welcome in his case it's supposed to be the victims are -- everyone else who is spreading this disease, everywhere it's coming from it's coming from china, obviously. where the privilege to so we are just supposed to accept it, we are supposed to be okay with what's going on. and yes, that's a big dynamic i talk about in my book, this is perpetuated entirely by the national media. >> tucker: but this -- and i think everything you said is absolutely true. i'm just a little bit surprised to see it still in effect now when we're facing a question of life and death, that's not an overstatement. i mean, this is a time to act to protect the country, but this attitude is so deep, it's so ingrained, it's so reflexive that they can't come are you surprised by that? >> ended his life and death. i think that we should be really grateful that we elected a german foe vice president in this case. if you would have thought you would say that, but that is the case. it's deeply ingrained in this country. it's in every facet of our lives, reinforced by the news
9:08 pm
media, office of the democratic party, i think the asia-pacific caucus just put out a thing that said -- just put out a statement that said let's not turn this into a racist thing, let's not turn this into we are worried about the racial implications of blaming this on anybody -- no, i'm sorry. if it turns out -- which i did read this today in "the new york times," no less that this may have come from eating skunks and china. okay, then maybe we should consider the idea that all right, either food or something or somebody should not be coming from china, but it is, it's deeply embedded in our society, like you said, and more important, like you just set in your monologue, excellent monologue, was that this is an ideology that is so deeply embedded in our country, so deeply embedded in our culture that i don't know. i don't know if there's any way out of it. but again, i hope the president trump does what he promised, which is to put the country over the fact that yes, he might be called a racist, but maybe do the right thing. >> tucker: yeah. by the way, it's not a racist
9:09 pm
country, most americans are really kind people. monstrously, that's why immigration rate is so high, they are not racist, actually. eddie, thank you so much and congrats on the book, which is great. >> thank you. >> tucker: the slow rollout of testing for coronavirus in this country may have hindered our response to it. dr. adam bernstein is a cardiothoracic radiologist in new york, he's done research that suggests the virus could be spotted with a simple ct scan. dr. byrne heim joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on. for those of us were not physicians and not fluent in this, explain what it is you think we can do to screen for this disease. >> thank you very much for having me. ct scans image patients all the time for a whole range of diseases but we are finding that patients with the coronavirus are affected most in her lungs. it is a disease that is a pneumonia and so as a thoracic radiologist, which is my focus, we are able to look at these scans and what we found has been really fascinating. my colleagues and myself at the
9:10 pm
hospital in manhattan have been fortunate enough to look at hundreds of scans in patients from china that are positive for the virus and what's really fascinating for us to see certain pattern develop. in the findings we are seeing in these patients, we noticed there are certain characteristics that were quite typical and quite characteristic of this disease. >> tucker: so with this -- i mean, if this turns out to be right, would it be possible to screen large segments of the population with ct scans? >> chest ct is already considered an immediate diagnostic tool that's used in any patient who has a clinical suspicion of this infection, but having an awareness within the radiology and medical community for appropriate diagnosis and prompt diagnosis is foundational for management of these patients. >> tucker: is this being done? it seems like we don't have any sense at all of how many people in this country carry the virus right now. >> chest ct is being done all the time, but because this is a
9:11 pm
new diagnosis and the patterns are unfamiliar to us as a medical community, it's really helpful to be able to know -- to be able to recognize the difference between coronavirus infection and many other types of pneumonia in the lungs because the symptoms are often nonspecific like fever and cough, and because the test kits are often unreliable, there have been several reports of both false positives and false negatives. in china there are more than 100 manufacturers of these test kits with a wide range of the variability -- of reliability and accuracy. so having a chest ct to be able to rule in or rule out the disease in patients that have characteristic findings is really going to be instrumental in ensuring the prompt diagnosis for patients. >> tucker: so one must question, doctor, looking at those slides we put on the screen, even i can tell they are profoundly obvious marks on the lungs. is it possible that those who recover from this virus will have permanent lung damage from it? >> that is something that we are learning and i think that some patients heal and some patients
9:12 pm
do respond with scarring in the long even if they're able to survive the infection, which most patients do indeed survive. it just like the scan when it's injured, it may heal normally with no residual scar, or it may heal with permanent damage. so too when the lungs are entered in something like pneumonia, they may heal with no sequelae or sometimes they do heal with permanent damage and scarring. that is something that as we evaluate follow-ups going forward we will be able to learn more about in the future. >> tucker: you've got to hope that's not the case. dr. bernheim, thanks so much for coming onto may. >> thank you for having me. >> tucker: up more top iranian officials are coming down with coronavirus. report of the one has died tonight. chief breaking news correspondent trace gallagher has the very latest on this story, hate, trace. >> outside of china, south korea, italy, iran of the hot spots, and iran is the most concern because the officials don't trust information coming out of there. iran says 254 people are infected, including the vice president, health minister,
9:13 pm
and a member of parliament. the death reports are unconfirmed. iran puts the total death toll at 15, but an iranian lawmaker claims it's 50. iran is also home to holy sites that attract millions of visitors and the fear is they'll go back to their home countries with weaker health care systems and cause a mass outbreak in the middle east. so iran is now urging people to temporarily avoid traveling to holy sites. iranian president assad romani also took a swipe at the u.s. for "spreading fear about the virus. and finally because italy is also a hot spot there was concern that during an ash wednesday mass, pope francis was coughing and blowing his nose. the vatican says the 83-year-old pontiff has a "slight indisposition" meaning he's not feeling well. during the mass he was seen shaking hands with faithful. he also kissed the baby. tucker. >> tucker: trace gallagher for us, thanks so much.
9:14 pm

9:18 pm
♪ >> tucker: all of a sudden, senator bernie sanders of vermont is a front runner inni e democratic race. as of tonight, sanders has by far the best chance in the whole democratic party of getting the nomination. so howow should you feel about that? well, if you're conservative, it's probably a little hard to
9:19 pm
take the whole thing seriously. for one thing, it seemed to come out of nowhere, nobody expected. nobody on tv warned what was going to happen. for another thing, sanders isn't half as gut level offensivewa someone like sailor elizabeth warren. unlike warren, sanders is obviously sincere about what he believes. he means it. he's got the right enemies too. cnn appears to hate bernie sanders every bit as much as they hate donald trump. that's a plus. and like everyone else on the left, sanders talks mostly about economics rather than putin and nonbinary bathrooms. and it's refreshing to hear someone focus on things that matter for once. plus it's not like sanders is going to win the presidency. you keep hearing people on both sides saying there is no possibility, no chance in the world that bernie sanders will get elected president in november. and that sounds right, basically. the guy calls himself a socialist. come on now. this is h america. that's what we are telling ourselves, but are we absolutely sure that that's true? last year -- ask yourself this, who was the last candidate they
9:20 pm
told one television could never, ever win? of the outcome of the current president. so ignore the people on tv, their morons. they lack wisdom, they lack imagination. they're almost always wrong about everything. of course bernie sanders could win the general election. a year from now we could be in the first months of the bernie sanders administration. this would be a completely different country. what kind of country would it be? well tonight we are beginning a series on bernie sanders foster pass america. we take sanders seriously. we think you should take them seriously too. we're starting tonight with sanders' views on immigration, a topic that affects this country on every level. for decades, sanders had what would now be considered conservative views on immigration. he cared about higher wages for workers. that was his issue. mass immigration lowers wages, so sanders was against it. at that simple. then sanders ran for president and his views changed completely. now sanders is as radical and immigration as anyone else in
9:21 pm
the race. for example, he's come out against virtually all deportations. all. watch. >> a moratorium on deportations for the 99% of the people is nothing to be cynical about. i think that is a significant step forward in the undocumented community would be very proud of that. >> tucker: ending 99% of deportations to please the undocumented community. youno should know that that numr includes violent felons. sanders went on to say that only if an illegal alien commits a "terrible,ib terrible crime," oy then, sanders "might" consider deporting that person, might. sanders wouldn't have to change any loss to do that. he could simply order federal authorities to stop deportations, he could do that day one and that's hist plan. imagine what that would mean for this country, foreign nationals commit crimes and we can't send them home. but sanders wouldn't stop there.
9:22 pm
he's planning to unilaterally enact many pieces of the new way forward act, the lunatic piece of legislation we covered on the show extensively, designed to protect criminal aliens, that's the point of it. sanders has pledged to end the ban on deporting criminals reentering the united states. why is that a good idea? is pledged to eliminate the expedited removal. that's a policy that allows obvious illegal aliens to be kicked out of the country swiftly. he's promised to give discretion to immigration judges so they can protect any illegal aliens who somehow beat the odds and face actually deportation. sanders has also vowed to end all workplace immigration rate so that big business will be able to rely on the that something he spent 30 years attacking, now he's for it. and ending those immigration rates will be easy since sanders is planning to abolish i.c.e. >> on day one through an executive order we will repeal all of trump's racist immigration executive orders.
9:23 pm
we will end the ice raids that are terrorizing communities all across america. >> tucker: of course businesses will have to import more of that illegal exploited labor that sanders is suddenly for because sanders hass also promised an amnesty for all current illegal aliens in this country, that's more than 22 million people. of course that's a move that will change the electoral balance in this country permanently, forever, and that's the real point, needless to say. bringing those two illegal workers will be difficult. sanders plans to decriminalize illegal border crossings and abolish the border patrol. what is this? this is what radical open borders policy looks like. sanders is arguing that everyone on earth has the effective right to come to r this country any te and receive the benefits of citizenship. in a sanders at administration would include but will not be limited to free college, free health care, and full eligibility for food stamps and welfare.
9:24 pm
we are not making this up for partisan reasons. or to slam bernie sanders because it suddenly looks like it's going to be the nominee. this has been out of the whole time, one is mentioning it, but it's all on tape. sanders brags about all of it, watch. >> i believe that health care is a human right. >> senator, would you include the 11 million undocumented -- >> absolutely. when i talk about health care being a human right, last time i heard that undocumented people are human beings as well. we need the best educated population in the world, that means we are goingng to make our public colleges and universities tuition free and open that to the undocumented as well. >> tucker: so why is anybody talk about this? people are jumping up and down on both sides of television because sanders praised fidel castro. a self described democratic socialist. that's bad, there's no doubt, but is it worse than what he believes on policy? it's not even close. you know it's way worse than
9:25 pm
anything he's ever said about fidel castro? 's belief, his argument, that anyone on the planet who sneaks into the united states should get free health care and free college tuition. that's the case he's making. so here's the obvious question, what with that due to our medical system and our universities? howiv long before the collapse? not long. these are some of the best things that we talk about. how will we pay for all of this, by the way? and if it such a great idea, why is no other nation considering doing it to meg why is no other nation ever doneit this? sanders has no answers for those questions, the most basic question. he becomes angry if you askhe h. he clearly doesn't care about thehi consequences of his plans, why? there's really only one possible answer, because he doesn't care about thee united states or its future. it's obvious that sanders hates the country seeks to lead. there's no other explanation for it and that is a very dangerous quality in a president. the show will continue to bring you a series on what life would be like under a bernie sanders
9:26 pm
administration. because there's a lot there and none of it has gotten attention. it's more than just praising castro, trust us. reaction tonight, we're happy ts be joined by chief washington correspondent at the hill. these coauthor of the best-selling book, the populists guide to 20s when interns estimate. thanks so much for coming on. >> thanks. >> tucker: so i'm confused by the disconnect between what he says is his imperative, which is reducing income inequality, bringing up wages for the working class, which i think are good goals, by the way, just to be clear, and his commitment to open borders which clearly will make the first to totally impossible. how does a square? >> the funny thing is that he actually did an interview with "the new york times" editorial board this year in which he admits that illegal immigrant labor depresses american wages. you laid it out perfectly. bernie sanders sanders appeal to most people is that he's been consistent on thee issues for 30 years, on health care come on the economy. what is the one thing that he has not been consistent on?
9:27 pm
immigration. to give everybody an idea of how much is changed, steve king said in 2015 that he agrees more with bernie sanders on immigration than most people in the republican party among which was true at that point. he was on cnn, lou dobbs' show, 2007, directly tying millions of illegal immigrants entering this country depressing american wages. this completely contradictory to the rest of his message enter the country, the nordic countries, that have the similar style social systems which he wants to implement. they don't have immigration systems like this on, for a reason. because it's insane and you can't pay for that. >> tucker: there's no country on planet earth that has or has ever had or will ever have, as far as i can tell, the immigration system is calling for. does he understand it -- i think there's a market for universal health care. there certainly is according to the polls. if you literally can't do that without tight border controls. has he ever acknowledged it? >> 2015 he said open brothers is
9:28 pm
a -- polk brothers proposal and brthat it was completely impossible -- what did you just play out? the legal applications for what he wants to implement are an effective rush on the u.s. border and then he wants to implement social services. just from a pure practical perspective, how was it even possible we are supposed to deliver health care to the entire illegal immigrant population, plus the u.s. population when we can barely deliver to the u.s. population writ large currently? >> tucker: last question, why has nobody ever asked this question? the most obvious of all questions and they are off on some tangent about something he said in the '70s. he's saying this now, i've never heard a single person asking for >> most of these people agree with the bernie sanders on immigration because they actually would be poured to hear that he used to have the position on immigration that we are talking about here tonight. it seems to them that it's the moral position in this country
9:29 pm
to not only give amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants, but you must provide them with health care and if you deviate from that position, one iota, you are a racist, and so that's why he doesn't get askede about it, because all the people out on the trail most of the people out on the trail with him completely agree with him. >> tucker: the only people who buy that are pampered guilty liberals who hate themselves. that is literally the only audience for this kind of nonsense. to see you. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: th coronavirus has revealed that our health care system is badly dependent on imported chinese goods. is it time for to step in to fix that? that's next. is a good after several denials, when i went to aspen dental, musical of." i had no insurance. at aspen dental, we're all about yes.
