they were concerned about the health applications for their own country. their paper ended this way. "safety levels may need to be reinforced in high risk biohazard laboratories. regulations may need to be taken to relocate these laboratories away from city centers and other densely populated places." as it happens, february 6th, which is the day that paper went online, was also the date of the first coronavirus death in this country, so the american media had every reason to pay attention to what the chineseci scientists have found, but they didn't. for nearly two months, the chinese paper was all but ignored by news outlets in this country. on march 31st, they shall broadcast its content. then, more than 3700 americans had died from the coronavirus, tens of thousands were then hospitalized, so we imagined it would be a serious national effort to find outer where this virus came from, to find out how the pandemic started. we were wrong about that. there wasn't. there was silence. the people in charge of our

public health infrastructure simply ignored credible evidence that contradicted the chinese government's version of events. that was five and a half months ago. during those five and a half months our society has been completely offended by the coronavirus. nearly 200,000 americans have died from it. now more than ever we believe it is worth knowing where this disease came from. that ought to be the first question. so in search of an answer last night on the show we spoke to attorneys for all adjust. one of the first scientist on earth to study the wuhan outbreak back in december of last year. that was before the rest ofut te world knew it existed. what she found during her research but are on a collision course with the chinese government. in april she fled her country in fear for her life. now she lives in the united states in hiding. here are some of what she told us last night on theni show. >> for my first report, scientific evidence to our

audience that this virus,co covid-19 actually is not from nature. w i work with the top crown of her allergist in the world, so together i can tell you this is increated in the lab. this is from -- owned by china military and also it has spread to the world to make such damage. >> tucker: to make such damage. do you believe the chinese government released this intentionally, on purpose? did they do this? >> yes, of course it's intentionally. >> tucker: covid-19 is not from nature, she said. it was created in a lab in wuhan, china. the chinese government intentionally unleashed it on the world. those are her claims. are they true? we have no way of verifying them. we do know that she is not a quack, she has offered

peer-reviewed papers on coronavirus transmission in both nature magazine and the [indiscernible]. those are two of the most respected publications in all of science. her paper on the origin of covid-19, which he has published online, is not frivolous. in it she points to specific evidence to the claims he makes. she identified so-called cut states, frequently used in genomic engineering that would allow scientists to swap in sequences from other viruses to great what she described last night as a frankenstein bio weapon. she writes that she has first-hand knowledge that the chinese military has a template virus with cut sites designed for that very purpose.se once again, we can't verify this, but it's clear that she is a serious person. she is making a very serious claim. so within a few hours of her interview last night, video of the segment reached 1.3 million people on facebook, and why wouldn't it? the coronavirus pandemic has touched the life of every american. and justifiably, people want to know where it came from.

but facebook still doesn't want you to know that. wso facebook suppressed the video, presumably on behalf of the chinese government. facebook executives made it harder for users to watch ourrs segment. those who found the video had to navigate a warning to the interview "repeats information about covid-19 that independent fact-checkers say is false." instagram, which facebook also owns, did the same thing. twitter suspended dr. yang's account entirely. it did not explain why. nor did the tech companies explain how they would know more about disease transmission then an md, phd for all adjust. instead, facebook and instagram linked to three so-called fact checks that supposedly proves she was lying. but if you clicked on the provided links, you would notice something odd. the fact checks were all published months ago, many months. in january, february, and march. and they had nothing whatsoever to do with what she sat on our show. they were written before in fact anyone knew who she was.

the fact checks attacks are complete we unrelated claim, the virus was patented and a vaccine was prepared and ready to go. what did that have to do with the interview we did last night? no one will tell us that. the truth is, and you know it if you've watched carefully, experts have been wrong frequently throughout this pandemic. at one point they told us not to wear masks. now they tell us we must and so on. if they have changed the prescriptions many time. mostly these are not bad peoplea most of them are trying their best, but they are human beings and therefore they are fallible, they make mistakes. the solution to this age-old problem is more informed voices in the conversation. that's how you make wise decisions. that's how you get to the truth. diversity of view. facebook doesn't believe this. if they believe in censorship. censorship does not make us wiser. it does not make us better informed. if it did, we'd be speaking russian right now, the soviet union would run the

world, but instead the soviet union's instinct, it collapsed under the weight of its own absurdities, absurdities abetted by censorship. and that's the most basic lesson of dictatorships, all of them. anything built on lies falls apart over time. unfortunately, dictators never see it that way. dictators care about power. anything that stands in the way of their power must be crushed. watch mark zuckerberg back in april explained that any challenges to the party line on coronavirus will be censored immediately. >> if someone is spreading something that puts people at imminent risk of physical harm, then we take that down. we don't allow that on facebook. there are also other misinformation that may not lead to physical -- imminent risk of physical harm, but still is in the type of stuff we want to be spreading through our system. >> tucker: misinformation can't be allowed to spread to our system, zuckerberg declared. so what exactly, you may be wondering, constitutes misinformation? what's the definition of that?

well, in practice, misinformation, according to facebook is anything that issuggests our health authoritis and democratic politicians are incompetent. also anything that embarrasses big tech allies in the communist igovernment of china. information like that is misinformation and it must be censored. not for your benefit, it doesn't help you at all, but for there is, to their power. so in july, facebook and twitter took on a video on new site breitbart of several practicing physicians, frontline doctors pointing out that hydroxychloroquine could help coronavirus patients. listen carefully to what the doctors say in this video. >> this is a treated regimen it's very simple and it should be in the hands of the americani people. the difficult aspect of this myth that the moment, because ob politics, it's being blocked from doctors prescribing it and it's being blocked from pharmacists releasing it. they've been in empowered to overrule the doctor's opinions. i'm in favor of being over the counter, give it to the people.

>> tucker: that's true. our authorities aren't pro-choice when it comes to hydroxychloroquine and it's true that many practicing physicianso have used it. but facebook declared that video could not be allowed, you are not allowed to see it, because those claims constitute a dangerous misinformation, which, irony of ironies, wasn't felt -- was it self dangerous. in july, the same month that video was posted, researchers in southeast michigan found that early administration of hydroxychloroquine made hospitalized patients substantially less likely to die. these are politicians, they are not tech executives, they are physicians, and that's what they found in their clinical practice. but none of that mattered to the 25-year-old humanities major staffing facebook spec checking division. they decided to absolutely could not see that video because it questioned the status quo. but in a way, in doing that, in censoring that information, facebook was its most honest.

at the video was dangerous. it was dangerous to the same elites that view democracy as a threat to their monopoly on information. give it to the people, the physician says in thes video. nothing could be more dangerous to silicon valley than democratizing access to the truth. something they believe they have a monopoly on. alphabet, which owns the search engine google, a monopoly if there ever was one, and the video sharing site youtube, same thing, is even more protective of its complete stranglehold on information, which it has. in april, they took on a video from dr. dan erickson. he said he was being pressureded to indicate that patients were dying of coronavirus in fact they died of other causes. many physicians have said that. he also cast doubt on the need for universal social distancing. here's what he said specifically, watch. >> we are pressured to test for flu, but e.r. doctors know, my friends and i talked to, it's interesting, when i'm writing up my death report, and being pressured to at covid.

why is that? why are we being pressured to add covid? to maybe increase the numbers and make it look a little bit worse than it is? i think so. >> tucker: this is a physician practicing medicine. comp number of lectures you received. way to let a woman decide, it's between a woman enter doctor. it not in this case. by the way, if they're willing to take that off the internet, sense of that, prevent you from seeing it, what are they going to do with election results a month and a half from now? think about that for a minute. youtube said the video you just saw must be censored because it "explicitly disputed the efficacy of local health authority recommended guidance. notice they didn't even bother trying to claim that dr. erickson was saying somethingg false. no, they just said he contradicted guidance from unnamed bureaucrats in the government. talk about state media. this is what state media looks like. demanding you must believe some

unelected bureaucrats from the state, taking his word of a physicians. more recently, youtube censored a video from dr. scott atlas, joining us in a moment. dr. atlas argued that maybe we don't need universal social distancing measures. some groups of americans, atlas said, are not in great danger from the coronavirus, especially young people and that's obviously true. no serious scientist disputes the accuracy of that statement. but then dr. atlas did what you absolutely cannotr. do ever in this brave new world they've created. he pointed out the statistical models, the models the technocrats used to justify their existence have been catastrophically wrong. watch him say it. >> the policymakers in general, they put in the lockdown. they didn't care at all. they did not calculate at all the costs -- they did i stop covid-19 at all costs and they

used hypothetical projection models that were so egregiously wrong, far, far off, yet they keep citing those models. >> even now. >> even now. and so the extension of the lockdown is the problem. >> tucker: so this is why that should scare you. that wasn't allowed biotech overlords. and yet, no one disputes that what dr. atlas said in the clip you just saw is true. look it up and verify it, a assuming you're still allowed to. and because it is true, we will continue to say it and things like it. period. fox news believes in free speech and we plan to exercise ours. we are allowed to do that because unlike the majority of news organizations in america, we are not beholden to facebook and youtube for our revenue. and as long as that's truek we are going to report and we are going to let you decide. dr. scott atlas is a member of

the white house task force on coronavirus, as noted, and we are happy to have a montagnais. thanks so much for coming on. let me ask you a broad question to start. what does it do to the practice of science when certain areas of inquiry are off-limits or censored? >> yeah, well, thanks for having me, tucker. it's a disaster. twe've already seen the near destruction of objective journalism. it when you start censoring science, you're removing, you know, fact. you're really removing the basic way we decide what's truth and what's not. and this has been done i think historically in various countries, but we are sort of teetering on the edge of what was done in third world countries. the countries we use to be proudly distinguished from. we need to have a reliable news media, we need to have scientists who are able to question -- i mean, in the beginning, as i sort of pointed out in one of my tweets, people used to think that the earth was the center of the solar system,

okay? the earth was flat. these things actually are proven and we ought to be able to accept differences in science and go forward and prove it. and you know, frankly a lot of the stuff that is said, as you pointed out, is not even disputing the science. we have a bunch of people in this country now and we are really at the hysterical end of things, that somehow it's all about the science, it's all about the science, but when you cite the science and it disagrees with what those people's impression of the science are, you are deemed -- you're not allowed to go on, and so when you say it's all about the science, you better know the science, you better understand the science and then you better say things that are consistent with the science. >> tucker: where are the brave scientists and physicians and researchers? where the people were going to uphold the essential principle of free inquiry that we need to function as a country? why aren't people flipping out about this? why isn't the head of [indiscernible] staging a hunger

strike until this garbage stops? it's a sincere question. >> yeah. i have to say that despite what people think, there's a big backlash going on. i received thousands of emails a week from people all over the world, including hundreds of -- from medical scientists and they like and they were afraid to step forward. i think the sort of move toe censor people like me and others -- i'm not just talking about myself -- really has precipitated a backlash here. we sought in the media. it lots of things have been written talking about what i said and how outrageous it is that stuff was censored, or even, you know, and interest by some of my former colleagues and censoring me by public shaming or cancellation. these kinds of things are really destructive and harmful. a not only is it wrong in terms of the truth, it's also instilling fear into the republic and we are right now in a pandemic here, we have people who are so afraid they can't even function.

we need to be able to allow -- we need to be able to look at people who can articulate the science, interpreted, take everything into context and move forward. i think c americans do not wanto be afraid. they do not want to see the chaotic discussion where you are canceled if you disagree. there are legitimate people like me, but there are also experts coast-to-coast. i'm talking about colleagues of mine were actually rational from stanford, harvard, ucla, all over the country. i speak to these people all the time. i just had a conversation with a nobel prize winner in structural biology tonight about these sorts of things. this is very frightening and we need to have this debate or the fact be able to be presented. >> tucker: yeah, we need masse resistance, we need brave people to stand up and you are of course one of them. we are grateful you are on tonight. thank you, dr. scott atlas. one of the rare members of congress was thought a lot about the effect of big techho

monopolies on our society and our freedoms is senator josh hawley, joins us tonight, thanks so much for coming on. you have been, to your credit, been warning about this for quite some time. clearly dystopia has arrived. to come once from a presidential election, these comps a companies have a hammerlock on our election. what can we do to throw off their control and restore freedom of speech and thought and inquiry in this country before then? is there anything? >> we can let people sue, tucker, and we can let people like dr. atlas sue and you to take their videos down, dr. yang won her twitter account getsr canceled, we can let her sue. right now they can't. nobody can. if you could discriminate against on the basis of speech by these platforms, you have no recourse because of the law that congress has written. this is the heart of the sweetheart deal, and it is time to end it.

that's all we can get their attention and that's all we can give power to individuals and p users. er>> tucker: amen. the trial bar on an unlikely ally would join that. i have to ask, who was standing in the way of such an obvious and much-needed solution? >> well, the washington establishment, much of which big tech owns. they've shelled out enormous sums of cash to buy influence in washington. it's been very successful. i've seen that with my own eyes on capitol hill. they have bought influence with think tanks come about influence with groups including conservative groups all over town.ro they've tried to influence members of congress, staff. it is unbelievable theon juggernaut that they have become a big tech has. but you know what, the american people are tired i think of big tech having all the power and them having none. the american people having none, and they are demanding changedi and that's ultimately what's going to get politicians attention.

there's nothing politicians respond to like voters and that's why as voters say, we had enough of this, we are tired of being told what to think, say, can read. we are tired of big tech, the capital of woke rang to tell us how to live our lives, we want to make those decisions ourselves, voters are demanding change. >> tucker: this election, this november could be a legitimate historic disaster thanks in part to these tech companies. truly.c that's when i could get very frightening and i hope a solution arrives. senator, thanks so much for the work you done. >> thank you. >> tucker: well, there's been an awful lot of confusion this week in joe biden's for president campaign. we report this [indiscernible]. simple questions like what offices joe biden running for? it's proving tough to answer. we will show you the video after the break. ♪

♪ >> tucker: at a virtual roundtable on monday with arizona business owners, joe biden's running mate left the mask slip for a moment and forgot to pretend that it's actually joe biden was running for president. it's all on video. watch this, pretty pretty amazing. >> a harris administration together with joe biden as the president of thein united state,

the biden-harris administration. >> tucker: a harrisra administration, together with joe biden as the president, of course. [laughs] it's unbelievable. it's like the warm-up act. headliners pretty humiliating, so you might expect joe biden would be annoyed by this, but he wasn't fazed in the slightest, assuming he understood what happened. in fact, joe biden appears to believe that he is in fact running for vice president. this is real footage from yesterday.ag >> harris-biden administration is going to relaunch that effort and push it further and make it easier for military spouses and veterans to find meaningful careers. >> tucker: a harris-biden administration. it's worth noting that joe biden appears to be reading from a teleprompter, naturally, as he said those words, so maybe the campaign has just gone ahead and mamade it official. maybe this is how they're fighting the patriarchy. it's the harris-biden ticket. joe biden is just along for the

ride. judge jeanine pirro is a fox news host, author of the book "don't lie to me and stop trying to steal our freedom," we are happy to have her on tonight. thanks for coming on. is it better just to be honest about it and say yeah, it's the kamala, however you pronounce her name, that harris had biden administration, does that work? >> that's right, that's right. there are [indiscernible] that are accidental and then are slips that are not inadvertent and the fact that she said the harris administration with joe biden as president, it's clear -- i mean, she knows what she's saying and then you have to say to yourself, wait a minute, has this been the plan all along? like what's going on behind closed doors? and what are they not telling us? and maybe president trump was right when he talked about joe biden being the trojan horse in that election. it's really more interesting when the next day -- i think 24 hours later -- joe biden

comes out and he says yeah, the harris-biden administration and he's waiting a teleprompter, but it doesn't connect, which is a sad comment on his mental acuity. so neither of them really corrected, but they just kind of go along with it and you have to wonder, has this been the plan allr along? >> tucker: maybe after she said it and kind of laid on the mark rapture, after she announced a public that it is in fact there are seven biden administration that he decided it would be sexist to try and correct her and just had to roll with it at that point. w >> oh, yeah, yeah, you're probably right. probably joe biden said to himself i got to be careful about this patriarchy. you've got it, tucker. >> tucker: so awesome when they have to follow the rules. so kamala harris also said that she's proud of jacob blake. that's the guy who was shot after fighting with police in kenosha, wisconsin. apparently he was going for his knife when he was shot. she even met with jacob blake's family last week. here's a clip of kamala harris after that meeting.

>> they are an incredible family. what they've endured and they just do it with such dignity and grace and you know, they are carrying the weight of a lot of voices on the shoulders. >> what was the message that you shared? >> one, to express concern for their well-being and of course for their brother and their son ao posthumous well-being. and to let them know that they have support. >> tucker: so as we told you, jacob blake's father is like a lunatic, actually. read his social media posts, and a totally open bigot. kamala harris probably doesn't think anything about it, she thinks that's worth praising. meanwhile, she has not visited the families of the l.a. sheriff's deputies who just shot in the face and saturday in compton. why do you think that is, judge, why hasn't she taken time out of her busy schedule with the harris administration to visit those deputies families? >> let me make the facts clear on jacob blake, in case anyone forgot them.

there was an outstanding warrant for jacob blake when the police were called on august 23rd, the day that he was shot. that outstanding open warrant was for felony sexual assault, trespassing, domestic violence. dithe day that jacob like went o that scene where he was ultimately arrested, there was an order for the court prohibiting him from being at that scene. he stole khakis from theei individual that he had previously been accused of molesting and for whom an order of protection had been issued. he was told to drop a knife and he did not drop the knife. he had one of the police officers and a headlock. he ended up p being shot. for kamala harris, let's make one thing clear. she was the d.a. and the attorney general of the state ot california. when you're in law enforcement, it's in your blood, you do not lose it. but this woman is a chameleon. she changes from pro-law enforcement pro-criminal. the fact that she would visit

that family, talk to them about how wonderful they are, and i'm not even talking about compton yet. she didn't visit the victim in that case. the victim was hysterical, she was crying, she was worried about her own children, and this was a nightmare scenario for her that was repeated again. now let's go to compton. you've got two cops, one who was a woman with a 6-year-old child. the other was a recent rookie, a graduate from the rookie school. the fact that she wouldn't make a phone call or even talk about them indicates that a site's been taken. she's in favor of black lives matter, anti-law enforcement, in favor of defunding the police. her silence in this situation where people are hoping that police die, they are supporting the massacre, the attempted murder of these two officers, tells me that her science iss acceptance and for the american -- for all of us, it tells us what's coming in a harris-biden administration.

>> tucker: you make a very good point.ar >> woman who despises law enforcement. >> tucker: she supports black lives matter. black lives matter has endorsed the murder of police officers. it's kind of that simple and thank you for reminding us of that. because that's true. >> okay. >> tucker: judge jeanine pirro, great to see you. >> it is true. thank you, good to be on, tucker. >> tucker: schools are suddenly completely out of control. one elementary school we are going to tell you about tonight has told kids that their parents are racist if they support the police. one of those parents joins us after the break. ♪

>> tucker: glad when elementary school pennsylvania outside philadelphia is nowke requiring fourth and fifth graders to read something called "not my idea," a book about whiteness. it teaches children that their parents are racist if they defend the police or complain about protesters or blocking the htroad. the book also says that people bo don't watch media reports

about police shootings are implicit in racism. austria's cultural proficiency committee has mandated several other programs for young children including ililclasses that teach kindergap that just asking other people questions can be racist. we reach out to the school district, which includes the element or school, one of the richest school districts in the nation, and they responded to us this way. "the school district fully supports the ongoing implementation of an antiracist curriculum in schools and encourages the use of developmentally appropriate books that raise awareness of the very real issues of racism and privilege." in other words, up yours.th this is what we are doing. so why are parents allowing schools to teach their own children to hate them for the color of their skin? kindiscernible] is the mother of a student who attended the element or school, she has since moved that child out of the district for obvious reasons. she joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on, i appreciate it. so tell us your experience with

the school, a fairly well-known school district, known for having excellent schools, but you move your child out. why? >> indeed. in fact, many people move to our area because of the quality of the education in public schools. two kids there, second grade and fourth grade, and this has been going on now for g a while. this is not something new that started right now.at little by little the school has been introducing different subjects that we were concerned about. i raised my concern with the principal, with teachers, with the counselors, and that kind of brushed it off, but just before the end of the school year, literally two days before the end of the school year, as a result of all the unrest and riots, they introduced what you ucghtfully called a couple proficiency curriculum and a lesson plan. in that lesson plan included the

books that you mentioned, as well as others. and when my husband and i were looking at the program, we were totally alarmed and obviously we opted our kids out of the less lesson.f if the school you're finished, we wrote the letter to the superintendent of our school district as well as to the principal of the school board and they just totally ignored us. we absolutely questioned the validity of this kind of teaching and emphasizing that in fact this teaching turned martyt martin luther king's teachings upside down. all those years they have been teaching our kids about the beautiful philosophy of martin luther king and they were rejoicing in this kind of teaching and all of a sudden this is totally turning it upside down. and we received no reply to our

concerns and therefore, i decided a few weeks later to post my letter to the superintendent on facebook of the parents school facebook page and i was totally taken by the harsh criticism and in fact in some places i told them that they are like lynching me of some parents. in this kind of criticism -- and obviously come as you know, the kind of names they call us, racist, not in our school, et cetera. the interesting thing though, and that's what launched -- that's what created our movement, the interesting thing is that those were the vocal voices. i received at thee same time a lot of emails and messages from grandparents and families that supported me, but also at the same time, the threats of the

other messages was we are afraid to talk. we are afraid to resist. >> tucker: will thank god that you weren't. and by the way, all those good liberals love immigrants until they are discipline disobedient. thank you so much for telling her story on our show and for your bravery, we need more of it, much more of it. appreciate it. >> i hope i can just mention that we created the movement called "no left turning m education" and you can find us on facebook as well as on the internet. it's a very simple to remember, it's a traffic sign of no left turn. no left turn in education. >> tucker: amen. thanks. kind of a hilarious moment on the campaign trail yesterday. joe biden trying to woo hispanic voters in florida with the help of his cell phone and a song about sex. mark steyn watching avidly from home joins us and asked to assess it went.

"hands off the threats, creep." >> that would actually be a good show -- that would be a good celebrity political show for some enterprise and cable.al that's a good title for it, tucker. >> tucker: hands off the threats, great. i love it so much. mark steyn, great to see it, thank you. >> thanks a lot, tucker. >> tucker: is a possible -- and republicans are hoping for this -- that there is a silent majority of voters for the current president? well, there is some information, we don't know it's going to happen, but there may be quite a few people. we have it for you next. musical

that will never let you down. again, that's findingtruepeace.com. >> tucker: the worst thing about american politics is identity politics. splitting 350 million people into little demographics, we hate doing it, but that is the way things are measured, so we've got to tell you, according to new surveys, the president ii now leading joe biden among hispanic voters. he is also virtually tied with

joe biden among voters who identify as gay. did not expect that, either. what has changed since 2016? eddie scarry, the author of the book "privileged victims: how america's culture fasists hijacked the country and elevated its worst people." great book, the title is true. thanks for coming on. these are big changes, what accounts for them do you think? >> i think that many other voters like you were just saying, i think that -- i hate to segment voters in two different identities but it's a lot of the same thing. if we are just talking about gays, we are looking at city's who are run by democrats and liberals and states, and we are seeing them go up in flamesy and gay people are inherently afraid of violence for i think reasons that should be obvious. so, i think seeing that has scared a lot of people and we are looking for someone --hi they're looking for protection from somebody, and we've seen joe biden for the last two or three months kind of excuse and not outright encourage what's going on.
