we will see you tomorrow night at ♪ 7 >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight," happy monday. one of the great unsolved mysteries of the past four years as why certain types of people with certain types of jobs hate donald trump so much, really hate him, obsess over him. think about it when they wake up in the morning, want to hurt them if they could. why the fixation? it has nothing to do with the reasons that normal people sometimes get annoyed with drum, the bragging, the short attention span, the rants on twitter. none of that justifies hatred or obsession, plenty of politicians have unappealing personal qualities. ted kennedy killed a woman and

he's still a hero to the democratic party. the reason the ruling class despises donald trump's because they can't control him.'t trump throws the bit. he refuses to mouth their lyrics, he will not obey in any moment donald trump is liable to come out with something they are absolutely not allowed to say. borders make countries, for example, china is our enemy. whoopi goldberg isn't that funny. all of it undeniably true, and that's the point in the problem. his words hang in the air for all to see and to assess and they are therefore a massive threat to people whose livelihoods depend upon fraud and lying. trump is the most dangerous to his enemies when he tells the truth. in fact, there is enemies precisely because he does tellus the truth and he did the other day. on friday, the president gave a speech of mount rushmore, he spoke eloquently about the blm riots and what they mean for the country. here's part of it. >> make no mistake, this

left-wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the american revolution. in so doing, they would destroy the very civilization that rescued billions from poverty, disease, violence, and hunger. and that lifted humanity to new heights of achievement, discovery and progress. to make this possible. they are determined to tear down every statue, symbol, and memory of our national heritage. >> tucker: our nationalhe heritage. it's something we can be proud of. this country defeated both fascism and communism. our evolution and inspire democratic revolutions around the world from south america to india. even today, pro-freedom demonstrators in hong kong, where the stakes are very high, wave the american flag to express their hope in their defiance. our economy and our schools created the world first --

engineers and scientists invented the airplane and the transistor and virtually everything else in modern life. they also transformed agriculture. they ended famine on most of the globe. our richest citizens became famous not for the palaces they built for themselves, but for the full interview they gave to others. andrew carnegie built countless libraries for the poor. rockefeller eradicated hookworm in the south. these are not the deeds of an evil country.il there the accomplishments of a great country. yet as the president pointed out, american schoolchildren learn virtually none of this. instead, our curriculum have become a toxic mix of lies and omissions. all of it designed to poison our children against the country that formed them. >> against every law of society and nature, our children are taught in school who hate their own country and to believe that the men and women who built it

were not heroes, that we are villains. the radical view of american history is a web of lies, all perspective is removed, every virtue is obscured. every motive is twisted. every fact is distorted. in every flaw is magnified until the history is purged and the record is disfigured beyond all recognition. >> tucker: every word of that is true. if you have kids in school you know it may be even be understatement. what is happening in our classrooms right now in 2,020 is a crime. it is long past time for the sitting president to say so. oand then trump kept going. towards the end of his speech he defended the core promise of america, the principal this country was founded on. the only principle to allow americans to survive going forward, a nation where all citizens are equal from birth

and as a result enjoy equal rights and equal protection under the law. it's the america our declaration of independence describes. >> we believe in equal opportunity, equal justice, and equal treatment for citizens of every race, background, religion, and creed. every child of every color born and unborn is made in the holy image of god. we want free and open debate, not speech codes and cancel culture. we embrace tolerance, not prejudice. we support the courageous men and women of law enforcement. [cheers and applause] we will never abolish our police or our great second amendment, which gives us the right to keep and bear arms.d we believe that our children should be taught to love their country, honor their history and

respect our great american flag. we stand tall, we stand proud, and we only kneel to almighty god. this is who we are. this is what we believe. and these are the values that will guide us as we strive to build an even better and greater future. >> tucker: we almost never play sound bites that are that long. politicians really give speeches worthy of it -- most of what they say is garbage and we don't want to repeat it but fred is addressed to mount rushmore was probably the best -- the single best speech donald trump is ever given. it was a road map for his reelection but more than that it was a road map for the m country itself. equality, decency, pride in our nation, those of the seams. naturally the liars on television deeply hated every word of it.

>> there's really a myth of america, this idea that america treated people well, that they treated men and women equally, that we founded this country just by her own wits. that is actually alive. >> much of american political propaganda over the course of our history has tried to completely erase, ignore, lie about the ugly parts of our history. >> mount rushmore isn't exactly the innocent owed to our founding fathers as described io our textbooks and it's high time we disrupt that false narratived that far too many people believe. here we are. celebrating the birth of a nation. independence for white men at a site described by one native american activist as "a symbol of whites of premises." >> tucker: if you spent the rest of your life trying to locate to identify the worst people in this country, 330 million, we couldn't get a

purer distillation than what you just saw. these people are liars. for the same people who spent the last month telling you that the riots who saw live on t the television were actually peaceful protests against racism. that was a lie. they knew it was a lie when they said it, but they said it anyway in order to undermine a country that they hate. yes hate. america deserves to be in flames, that is their view. in this week and they said essentially out loud. mount rushmore, they told us, must go. it is a legitimate, just like the nation it celebrates. >> president trump will be at mount rushmore where he'll be standing inre front of a monumet of two slave owners and on land wrestled away from native americans. >> with these monuments we don't want to forget, what do we do with them? maybe they don't stand in the town square, but should they stand anywhere? should we demolish them? >> it's been polluted. it's been desecrated by putting these-owning, racist, horrible horrible white men in 60-foot statues on this wall.

>> when you look at this place, this land, the black hills, the history is a dark one. >> but it's not just the landot that has been stolen in a place like mount rushmore, the black hills. it's the theft of history, the theft t of the narrative. >> worth remaining folks that the man who carved the monument behind me had deep ties to the kkk. >> the mother of all photo ops mount rushmore and we know why this president just can't resist going there. >> tucker: so mount rushmore is now a symbol of evil, just like. where is this all n going? as writer put it, cnn even put independence" when describing the holiday. this will end with wolf blitzer dressed in a dishy people in the switch totc dynamite the statuef liberty." pretty funny, but it suddenly getting easier to imagine that happening. on the morning of july 4th, "the washington post" summarize the president's speech, the one whose clips of we just played.

"president trump's unyielding 'spushed chickens, preserve confederate symbols the legacy of whiteer domination crystallid by his harsh denunciation of the racial justice movements friday night at mount rushmore has unnerved republicans who have long enabled him. for real. that was not an opinion piece, by the way can come on op-ed page. it was a news story written by two "washington post" reporters. they describe the president's defense of equality under the law as "trump's push to amplify racism." jeff bezos' newspaper. local politicians joined in the chorus. the mayor of nashville canceled the city's fourth of july fireworks but allowed blm protests to continue unimpeded. enrichment, city city officials tiordered construction sites to remove an american flag, it was too provocative, they said. meanwhile, the statue of mass murderer vladimir lenin stands totally unmolested in the city of seattle tonight. they see nothing provocative about it. so where is joe biden on all of

this is the revolution continu continues? that was his chief appeal. but there was nothing moderate about his fourth of july statement. instead it was a full throated attack on the united states. >> our country was founded on an idea. we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created-e equal. never lived up to it. he held, women were excluded. america -- it's been a constant push and fall between two parts of our character. the idea that all men and women, all people are created equal and the racism that has torn us apart. have a rant on my chance to rip the roots of systemic racism out of this country.uc >> tucker: that's your fourth of july message? systemic racism, something you can't even define, that has no real definition? really? wagging her finger in the face of the nation that promoted someone as mediocre as you to the position you currently hold? this is the man who could soon

be our figurehead. but how about the actual presidential candidate, whoever biden pyxis' vp, running mates. senator tammy duckworth of illinois is a top contender for the job. you're not supposed to criticize tammy duckworth in any way because she wants served in the military. most people would just ignore her. but when she does speak inn public, you reminded what ad deeply silly and oppressive person person she is. here's tammy duckworth from over the weekend telling us it's time to get rid of george washington. >> i know that you support changing the name of military bases named after confederate leaders, but there are leaders like george washington and thomas jefferson who were slave owners and some people are demanding that their monuments come down too. so when your view, where does it end? statues for example of george washington's, should they come down?n? >> let me just say that we should start off by having a national dialogue on it. at some point. >> tucker: a national dialogue. please. they're not looking for any kind of -- what they want is a

soliloquy. we speak, you shut up and listen. so what to make of all of this. it's long been considered out-of-bounds to question a person's patriotism. it's a very strong charge and we try not ever to make it. in the face of all this, thesee people actually hate america, there's no question about that. that yet paradoxically at the same time, they desperately want to control america, more than anything. and that leads to the most basic of all questions, can you really leave the country that you hate? ask yourself, what kind of parent would you be if you hated your children? what kind of officer would you make you didn't care about your troops? it would be awful. if the results would be ugly, it would not work. loving the people you lead, caring deeply about them is the most basic prerequisite of leadership. the leaders of today's democratic party do not. they despise this country. they have said so, they continue to.

that is shocking, but it is also disqualifying. we cannot let them run this nation, because they hate it. imagine what they would do to it. well, democratic leaders attack the nation's past, parts of the country they run right now are disintegrating before our eyes and as always, the most helpless among them are paying the biggest price. we will investigate the explosion of violent crime in this country over the past month, that's next. ♪

♪ >> tucker: november 29, 2012, didn't get a lot of publicity, but it should have. on that day, new york city, our biggest city, once an entire 24 hours without a single violent crime buried not one murder, no shootings, no stabbings. that's a tremendous achievement for any city of 8 million, but it was a remarkable milestone for new york. just 20 years before, new york city had averaged more than five murders a day. it then it became one of the safest big cities in the world. in the last month though, that achievement and similar reduction in crime in big cities across america have unraveled and unraveled with shocking speed. yesterday alone in new york city there were 30 shootings and ten

murders. in the i first six days of the month, almost 100 people had been shot in new york city. in the past 28 days in new york, shootings have tripled compared to the same time a year ago. in chicago over the fourth of july 79 people were shot with firearms and 15 killed. where the gun control people, by the way? haven't heard much from them. they're mad the people on farms in iowa will have ar-15s. they don't say anything about the atrocities unfolding right now in our cities. but what happened in chicago just continues a trend from june. 89 people were murdered in a single month. that was the deadliest june in chicago in almost a quarter-century. earlier this year, mayor lori lightfoot lectured her citizens about her special right to get her hair done during the coronavirus lockdown. now she said that any claim that chicago was dangerous or falling apart is, can you guess, mad libs, anyone, racist.

>> president trump is trying to execute on the 1968 strategy of richard nixon. that is to make it seem as if the democratically controlledie big cities are rapidly out of control. and playing to the fears of aco white suburban constituency, white rural constituency to rally behind him as the law and order president. it's transparently political and candidly, it's laughable. >> tucker: so 89 people murdered in a single month but the only people who are mad about that or white rural people! what about the families of the 89 people murdered in your city? mayor lightfoot calls it "laughable." really? that's her attitude towards the slaughterre in chicago. it's easy for lori lightfoot to laugh. at public expense she enjoys an immense security detail.ul so much a ticket away from her tomorrow and see if she still

laughing about what's happening in chicago. ordinary people don't get anonymously public funded security details. one of the people murdered was natalia wallace. she was seven years old, attending a family fourth of july picnic when three men drove up in aic car and sprayed the parting with gunfire. after she was murdered, her uncle spoke to the press. he didn't beg for the police to be defunded or abolished. he asked where the cops were. they weren't there to protect the little girl. "they weren't here. that's where they should have been on these high-risk corners where the violence is taking place." obviously. related to the uncle of a murdered seven neural to speak the truth that no one else will speak. lori lightfoot definitely included. when you defund the police, when you laugh off murders and blame rural white people for worrying aboutgh them, 7-year-old girls n your city die. chicago and new york are the only cities were averting to the chaos of 30 years ago though. since friday, 34 people were

shot and nine murdered in philadelphia. part of a 27% surge in killings on the year. in san francisco, 6-year-old jc young was murdered at a birthday party. in washington, d.c., 11-year-old was shot and killed at a cookout. five people were murdered in atlanta over the weekend. an 8-year-old was one of those. atlanta's mayor keisha lance bottoms didn't call the murder of children in her city laughable at least. >> we are shooting each other up on our streets. and the city -- shot until the baby. it wasn't one shooter, there were at least two shooters. an 8-year-old baby. we are doing each other more harm than any police officer on this force. >> tucker: she went on to say that during the civil rights smovement we knew who the enemy was. it really?wh what enemy are you talking about mayor keisha lance bottoms? atlanta is out of control.

talk to anybody who lives there how they feel about it. take a look at video shot over the weekend from atlanta. two in the morning, dow downtime looks like a scene -- no cops anywhere. why are there no cops anywhere? because cops have been vilified. no matter what politicians say, almost all of them are participating in this retreat from enforcing the law. and the effect of that to no one's surprise is the death of young children. ilit's horrifying. bob woodson has seen all of this. he was part of the original civil rights movement more than 50 years ago and he's been chronicling the fate of our cities ever since. we are always pleased to have them on the show. thanks so much for joining us. what do you make of what's happening to >> part of the trend for ten years, but the left has abandoneds all pretense of really fighting for social justice.

low income blacks are just collateral damage to their efforts to just demean andnd destroy these civic institutions in this country. not only that, tucker, but some of the statistics, 75% of these murders, no one is ever arrested, so that means in these cities where these murders are occurring and also come as you say, the police are vilified in virginia legislature for instance is trying to reduce assault on police officers to a misdemeanor. can you imagine if he said the same thing about blacks, we want to reduce assaults on blacks to a misdemeanor, with the outcry would be? but it means that our children are dying in low income blacks are the ones are suffering the most. and black lives matter, they are

not answering the question. if racism were the single culprit, wire black children and black people being -- dying and being destroyed in institutions run by their own people? the goal of the civil rights movement was to put -- they can improve the lot of their ownhe people. where the civil rights leaders in the black caucus when statues on frederick douglass are being torn down.ob i've is that the left has abandoned all pretense of fighting for social justice for blacks. this is an assault on the summation. it's promoting anarchy. and if they want a police free states, where there are no non11 numbers. they have to arm themselves as vigilantes to protect themselves. is that what they want for

america? i don't think so. but what we are fighting for is to give those voices of these moms who are dying -- these children that are dying and losing children in these cities, tucker. we are trying to do in 1776 is give the voice to those in -- there are a lot of insurgent voices in the black community that are not getting recognized are not cutting hard and we are trying to give them a voice so they can speak for themselves. instead of being told by radical leftists that their biggest problem is racism. >> tucker: yeah. r:well what we are doing is clearly not working. i mean, that's -- it is the definition of insanity, continue doing it if it's not working and that's what we're doing. thank you always for youry, clarity, great to see you tonight. >> and thank you. >> tucker: by the way, there should be a national movement to defund the personal security detail of anyd politician calls for defunding the police.

the idea that an office holder can reduce your access to law enforcement and the safety of your family while hiding behind cops that you pay for is totally outrageous in fact it's a high water mark for outrageous. people should demand -- voters should demand that you reduce your security detail by exactly the proportion you're trying to reduce our police, period. former jeffrey epstein confidant is leigh maxwell, assuming that's her name is pronounced, has been transferred to a new york jail. is she on suicide watch? and if so, what could she reveal to prosecutors? that's next. a major new study finds that you will not be surprised to learn, hydroxychloroquine actually does save lives in cases of coronavirus. dr. marc siegel joins us just ahead. ♪ st bottom line is,

well, researchers at the henry ford health system have released a new major study of hydroxychloroquine. they found that the drug's early use against coronavirus may cut the death rate in half. amazing. fox medical contributed marc siegel joins us tonight to discuss this. doctor, thanks so much for coming on. something we talked about manyng times, with part about the horrors of hydroxychloroquine from the media. what you make of this study? >> this is a groundbreaking study. i spoke to a doctor who is the chief academic officer at henry ford health systems and he saidi as you pointed out, that it cuts the death rate from covid-19 in hahalf in the 2500 patients they studied and i have another study coming up, 3,000 health care workers to see if it can be used eeas a preventive. this is very big news and it's a very big step in the right direction. i also spoke to congressman michael burgess of texas today, a republican leader of the house, as you know, subcommittee on health.

and he said he's been getting calls from all over the country. a wise and hydroxychloroquine available for frontline use at a time when the covid outbreak, pandemic is increasing in texas? and of course the answer he gave his politics. and as you know, i had a cardiologist prescribed to my father and apparently got dramatically better and i've given it to many patients in march and april got better apparently due to hydroxychloroquine, likely. so why is the emergency is authorization? this study may change all of that. there's a lot of pressure on the fda tonight to reverse that, the emergency use authorization. you can prescribed off label but many physicians are calling for congressman burgess, also dr. burgess for 30 years, by the way, is that this pressure, not to use it. t if the fda has to step up to the plate here. this appears to be a potential very usable treatment early in the game. p it's been studied against the

♪ d >> tucker: you here and all the time from republicans, practically every day, democrats they said the real racist. fdr interned the japanese, the democratic party supported slavery uncreated jim crow. that argument is a staple of conservative twitter. it is factually true, yet it's also misleading. yes, the leaders of the. democratic party are committed racists. they are the driving force

behind the racial division and hatred in this country. there's no denying that. but their racism has nothing to do with what previous generations of democrats did. nancy pelosi is not responsible for the sins of bull connor any more than your guilty for the sins of her grandparents. in this country will citizens responsible only for the choices they make personally. you cannot be indicted for other people's crimes.me this is not north korea. we don't punish people for their bloodline. conservatives, of all people, should know this. it is the basis of all western justice. the democratic party is racist because right now, today, democrats are pushing the abhorrent lie that moral value corresponds to skin color. some races, they tell us, are inherently good. others are inherently bad. they're saying that that is the very definition of races. it is sick, it is poison. democrats are saying it out loud every single day in every venue at full volume. the most popular book on the left right now is a demented piece of pseudoscience entitled

"white fragility." it was written by a wild eyed race monger. ten years we will look back and more that sony people would read something this vicious and crazy and read it openly public places with no shame. that's about time for it howou would you feel if your seatmate cracked open the protocols of the elders of zion? you would be shocked. get thanks to encouragement fro, democratic leaders it is happening afterward. eq is now required reading in schools and in boardrooms. corporations are internalizing its message, its sick message. uber has announced it will waive delivery fees but only for black owned restaurants. post mates, its competitors, announce the very same policies. businesses are receiving favorable treatment based solely on the skin colors of their owners. haven't we seen that summerir before? we have and we passed an entire civil rights act to stop it. that was more than 50 years ago. get thanks to democrat a party,

it is happening again. the justice department meanwhile is doing nothing about this. california's attorney general hasn't done anything either despite the fact that it is based in california and the company's race-based policies violates the state's civil rights act fly courtney but california democrats no longer believe in ending racial discrimination, they are affirmatively for racial discrimination. as of tonight, the california state constitution says this. "the state shall not discriminate against or grant preferential treatment to any individual or group on the basis of race,, color, ethnicity or national origin in the operation of public appointment, public education or public contracting." that's the clearest statement of equality imaginable. right now in california, the state must treat everyone equally regardless of skin color. by the way, that's the law in every state, its federal law and it should be. if the promise of america. but democrats don't believe it anymore.e. they just voted overwhelmingly to repeal california's

antidiscrimination amendment. they are re-legalizing racial discrimination. this is a 1950s alabama, it's california, our biggest states, right now! you think maybe republicans could mention that once in a while. most americans don't even know was happening, but it is happening. and because it is unchallenged, suddenly racist thinking is everywhere on the left. two weeks ago, lincoln, oregon issued requirements that all white residents wear masks. nonwhite residents were exempt from the order. if the county didn't say anything about segregating water fountains but it was just a thmatter of time. utwhen bad people are forced --t they blamed white racism. americans were immoral, they suggested, for not welcoming laws that punish citizens on the basis of their skin color. we could go on, this kind of stuff is everywhere. you see it, everyone knows it, nobody says anything about it. so in the absence of any principal pushback, the race baiters get bolder, crazier, more obviously dangerous. in late may, "the new york times" wrote an

entire op-ed about how "white women -- this is a quote, white women use themselves as instrument of terror. imagine a paper running that about any other group. you can't imagine it, the fbi would launch an investigation that day but of course there was no fbi investigation. so it continue. last week the global opinions editor of "the washington post," called -- attacked white women as a group for their "lies." we are quoting. "white women are lucky that we're just calling them karens are not calling for revenge." revenge? what does that mean? you know what d it means. she's threatening racial violence in the pages of jeff bezos' newspaper. if you think it would bet newsworthy. a little more newsworthy that something that happens during the confederacy. yet once again, silence from the democrats in the real racist people on twitter.ra america was founded on the promise of equality for all. period. that is still our law. state and federal.

and it must remain the goal that we fight for, period. without that, we have nothing. it's evidence have an obligation to collect race hatred and allan its forms, no matter who it is aimed at, wherever we find it, and today, july 6, 2020, we find it in the democratic party. well, professional sports havepo gone fully woke and because of that, america now has more than one national anthem, it has to go. is that a good idea for sports and for the country to the great jason whitlock joins us to untangle the mystery after the break. ♪ so what's going on? i'm a talking dog. the other issue.

it a good idea? >> i think it's really about a lack of leadership. the failure of men to stand up and stand on the principles that they say they believe in. so when i look at what the nfl is doing, this goes against every value that the nfl has built itself on, professional sports have built themselves on, celebration of americana and the ideals and values that best exemplify america. they have built themselves on unity and unifying the country. if the nfl starts out its season with everyone standing for "lift every voice and sing," the black national anthem, and then virtually everyone on the field taking a knee when "the star-spangled banner" plays, i think it's going to be, if you remember the show "happy days" the jump-the-shark moment when we knew "happy days" was over. the nfl will run off a nice fat chunk of its audience and will never be seen the same again.

because of the failure of leadership throughout the nfl. there's no way you can do any homework on black lives matter and not see that it's a marxist political organization. it's not about black deaths.te it's not about black men. it's a political move, a communist political move. for those people that stand on religious values, and this is where i say it's a failure of men, i've seen many of these guys that claim their christianity and their religious beliefs, they understand black lives matter, communist marxism is antireligious. it's a historic failure of men and leadership. it's cowardice at its highest level. this is the nfl jumping the shark and saying we quit being who we said we are. we are now something else, because our money's on the line and we don't stand for the values we said we stood for. >> tucker: in one minute, there is an nfl commissioner.

where is he? >> probably hiding under his desk with troy vincent, his assistant. talking about roger goodell. these guys don't know what to do and i don't want to just blame roger goodell and troy vincent. this is nfl ownership, all of them.no cowards. not standing up for what they believe in. america has made them filthy rich and some of the most powerful people on the planet,p and they are unwilling to defend the values they built their business on and the country that has enriched them incredibly. across the board, tucker, politically, in the sports world, i am looking at men fall out of cowardice. women fall out of cowardice. it's pervasive throughout this country. >> tucker: that is exactly right. jason whitlock, congratulations on outkick. very cool. >> appreciated. thank you, tucker. >> tucker: we are out of time. we hope you'll join us tomorrow night.

8:00 p.m., the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness and groupthink. the great sean hannity takes over. >> sean: thank you, welcome to "hannity." hundreds shot, dozens killed during a weekend of nothing short catastrophic violence in america's major cities. multiple children as young as seven and 8 years old were murdered this weekend. our communities, our neighborhoods, fellow americans are under attack. many democrats, they seem more interested in tearing down statues and actually protecting innocent men, women, and children in the cities that they govern. on this program, we are absolutely open. you want to debate statues, memorials. we will debate it anytime you want, but know this. democrats have zero credibility, no standing on this issue. for two very extremely relevant and important reasons that dumb people in the media and the mobd

and people frankly that are
