tomorrow. you can go to that at foxnewspodcast.com or wherever you download to your podcast. that is "the story" on septembe. we will see you tomorrow night, "the story" will go on and we will be here to cover it with you. ♪ >> tucker: if you are watching live pictures on your screen right now of louisville, kentucky, another american city caught up in the chaos of 2020. in louisville tonight a grand jury has issued its decision in the breonna taylor case. rioters assembled immediately, they were already there waiting for them. we will watch the situation as it unfolds and would love a live report for you from that city and just a moment. but first good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." the chaos you've been watching the promise of violence tonight all began with the tragedy that took place six months ago.

in march, three louisville police officers served a search warrant at the apartment of a woman called breonna taylor. they knocked outside and announced they were from the police department and then entered the apartment. once they did a man called kenneth walker opened fire on them. walker was at breonna taylor's boyfriend and also supposedly a drug dealer. walker admits that he fired for us and that he shot a police officer. in response, the cops fired back. by the time kenneth walker surrendered to come breonna taylor who was in another room in the apartment had been fatally wounded. those are the facts of the case and it's a very sad story, nobody's disputes that. sometimes awful things happen despite the best efforts. the truth was not enough for b blm. blm seeks political power. in order to get that power they need to keep america angry and divided. americans divided against each other.

so blm lied about how breonna taylor died. bill and the activists claimed that louisville police broke into taylor's apartment without warning and they claim cops used the so-called no-knock warrant to surprise taylor while she was sleeping and then they shot her. they described her killing is a murder, yet another horrifying example of systemic racist violence against african-americans by the police, that's what they said it was a lie. but because blm said it no one challenge their version. the city council unanimously passed something called bana taylor's law. in washington kentucky senator rand paul introduced the so-called justice for breonna taylor act which would be in the federal warrants. all of those responses were based on a story that at the most basic level was not true. the summer a tenant in breonna taylor's apartment complex told "the new york times" that he heard police officers out police, the knock three times

before they entered her apartment. that was all but ignored. today the attorney general of kentucky daniel cameron confirmed that it is true. there is, he said, uncontested evidence from i witnessed that despite what blm has claimed for half a year, police were not in fact executing a no knock warrant on breonna taylor's apartment. watch. >> evidence shows that officers both knocked and announced their presence at the apartment. the officers statements about their announcement are corroborated by an independent witness. who was near in the proximity to apartment number four. in other words, the warrant was not served as an no-knock warrant. >> tucker: so there you have it. the facts of the case, and we seen this before, are not what we were told that they were. because real life is always more complicated than political propaganda.

there is no evidence of any kind that breonna taylor was murdered because she was black. that's a lie and it's like designs to divide the country and make the people telling them more powerful. instead it seems clear that taylor was shot accidentally because her boyfriend opened fire on the police in a dark apartment, an he may have done t excellently. in the end, it didn't matter. the mob had abetted the reckless media and paid but for. as the grand jury made its decision, louisville girded for what they knew was coming. police blocked roads and businesses nailed plywood over windows and even a local children's hospital boarded up its entrance. the doctors and nurses inside knew they were not safe from the mob so they had a grand jury finally notes the decision. one officer, a man called brett hankinson has been indicted on three counts of wanton endangerment. he was not charged with shooting

and killing breonna taylor but instead he may have acted recklessly. keep in mind, he only fired his gun after one of his partners had been shot by kenneth walker. so should hankinson not have returned fire? how many rounds the cop allowed to discharge once someone starts shooting? it's hard to believe we would be having conversations this absurd, much less discussing officer hankinson's indictment if biden voters weren't in the streets making threats and demanding it. in other words, the mob is now in charge of our justice system we've given you examples before. what kind of country is that? but love mob once more. one indictment and another fake hate crime is not enough, they want blood.

>> tucker: get ready to die he says to the cop. who says that? a terrorist says that, get ready to die. but it's not just police officers who've been targeted by the mob, it's the entire city of louisville. watch. in louisville, authorities have acted more decisively to make them authorities and many other cities have responded this summer and called in the national guard. local police have also moved in apparently enforced. but the mob is still destroying businesses and private property. there were too many for police to contain. [chanting]

[yelling] >> tucker: so this is how america works now. you don't like the grand jury decisions that you break things and you hurt people and you steal what is in jewelers. that's how we function now. but no country can function for long under that standard. things will fall apart, and that of course is the point of the riots. nothing to do with breonna taylor, most of these know nothing about her. the point is to embrace america, to overthrow our system and replace it with something else, with other people in charge. it's a coordinated effort and a well-funded effort. watch the mob on hold the unloader u-haul full of signs and shields and other riot devices today.

>> tucker: so the obvious question is, who is paying for all this? who's organizing it? it is organized and it's expensive. we have some leads tonight into who rented the u-haul truck that you just saw. the broad outlines and are already clear, but the privileged people in our society are defending our destruction. the blood dried revolutionary is a "cosmopolitan" magazine in new york tweeted instructions on how to help the rioters. "the louisville community bail fund provides post police support in a way to get them into a situation in safety. donate now. that's a command from the hearst corporation, hurst is not a small player in publishing, he made more than $11 billion this year. so billionaires are pushing

riots. okay, we seen a lot of that recently, why are they doing it? the same reason kamala harris made donations to the minnesota freedom fund which paid bail for attempted cop killers and. the set same reason several joe biden for president staffers to the same thing. the reason and they are wanting to destabilize the country. by doing that they create a diversion. and the more people are angry at each other the more enraged they are at cops making 50 grand a year who effectively have no power. the list focused the country is on the misdeeds of silicon valley on wall street, so that's why they are paying for it. in the media, they bow to their corporate masters and they play along as they always do. just this afternoon the kentucky attorney general daniel cameron said he opposes mob violence. you would expect of course an

attorney general to opposes mob violence but the whole point of law enforcement is to oppose mob by violence. when people care about america it wasn't a controversial statement, and here's what he he said. >> if we simply act on emotion or outrage then there is no justice. mob justice is not justice. justice sought by violence is not violence. >> tucker: mob justice is not justice, that used to be the most obvious possible observation particularly coming from someone in the south which for a long time had a problem with mob justice. you thought we probably all agree that was bad and you thought we heard the attorney general of kentucky say that and say, that sounds sensible to me. but over at cnn, they were enraged. cnn knows that mob justice isn't just worth having, in fact it's the substance of the democratic platform in 2020. so they attacked him for saying.

watch this. >> i question the judgment of the kentucky attorney general saying "mob justice is not justice. he said it becomes a revenge. that word the mob and the president having said that if joe biden wins the mob wins, that's what he said. we know this is very politically loaded language. >> tucker: look at yourself in the mirror, what are you doing? you know what you are doing, you are encouraging violence. criticizing violence is "politically loaded language? she's scolding us? really? you will hear cnn anchor's lecture kentucky's attorney general for calling out rioters to destroy business but you won't hear them say a word on msnbc. we were watching. >> your death is irrelevant to the law in the state of

kentucky, your death doesn't matter, your life doesn't matter. this was a black lives don't matter ruling. >> if you are not safe in your house and you are not safe on your streets, where did we go from here? >> you are not safe anywhere because i can't go anywhere. if i go jogging i could end up like ahmaud arbery. >> tucker: it's all such a li lie. it's a lie, a demonstrable live. the statistics don't back it up, the experience of your life no matter what color you are it doesn't back it up in the fact that hundreds of thousands of people every year move here who are black, to the united states, nothing about that it is true. and they know it's not true. the guy who said it had a phd, you can't go anywhere if you are black. yeah, he says from a tv studio. but that's a unified message of

the american media. they know it's not true and they know that taylor didn't die in a no knock police raid. her death is sad, it's a tragedy, but it wasn't an act of racism. there is no evidence for that and if there was we would admit it. all they care about is getting people to believe that this dystopia that they believe is real. why? it's an election year. if enough property burns and public streets are impossible, in the end i will vote for joe biden to make it stop. but what then? if joe biden wins on november 3rd to come billion dollar corporations like her's will be fine. the billionaires paying for all of the stocking u-haul with right supplies will be fine. but where will you be? you will be on your own. in a moment we will talk to bob woodson about this but first we will go to matt finn, and there were some acts on the ground

just second ago and we want to hear from him about what it was. >> there's a lot of action right now, it's at jefferson park square in downtown, louisville. this park for quite some time has been ground zero for demonstrations and protests, several fires were lit here tonight and in fact there are still some fires that are still burning. we watched protesters light fire to the justice center and throw bottles at police and now police have decoded unlawful assembly over a very loud loudspeaker and the one people that if they did not clear the area and that end of their unlawful assembly that there would be chemical agents. they gave fair warning and that's what's happening here. over to my left there are hundreds of officers and s.w.a.t. gear and they are basically just trying to reclaim this area that a lot of people were gathering in that unlawful assembly.

much more calm than i was a few minutes ago. >> tucker: matt finn on the ground for us in louisville. those are live pictures. we are going to bring in bob woodson know who is one of the first people we turn to in moments like this to make sense. what do you think is going on here, mr. watson? >> first of all your assessment with of the situation is spot on. there is an overlap to that, though edmonson always lose loses. i spent my entire professional life working on behalf of poor people of all races but particularly low income backs and i can tell you that they are the ones that are suffering. it means that if police are downtown, it means they are not

they saw and that's a death sentence for young people in these neighborhoods because it is the direct correlation between reduction and police presence and an increase in violence and murder. more blacks, tucker, are killed in one year and then by other blacks and was killed and 50 years. we have a 9-11 every six months. in chicago last week there was a community group where they were appealing to buy them and showing people how to use them and they are seeing because the city has neglected us, a bulletproof backpack. they are not buying these to

protect themselves as a and the celebrities are saying, a will continue to propagate this lie that the biggest threat to black young men is coming from the police. that is just a lie intended to keep black america inflamed and agitated so we are supporting a group of black mothers called mama's rescue. this is mothers who lost children to urban violence and they are saying that nobody is listening to us. i spent the whole day with them saturday and they are saying, they are solidly behind the police but no one really listens to those communities that they deserve to be heard from but they are the ones we are losing.

we lost 20 children in chicago in the last year, 700 blacks that were killed. but bulletproof backpacks, they have resorted to that? the answers can be found with the problem is. and that is supporting grassroots leaders that had created a zone of peace for the last three months. but no one comes there to talk about investing in groups in their communities. they have in fact begin to redirect children away but it's related to institutional racism. >> tucker: i don't think cosmopolitan is raising any money for grieving fathers. mothers. i always appreciated, thank you. >> thank you, tucker.

the pictures and that's a number of cities in the country tonight or in response this grand jury verdict, in which, if you are just joining us, one police officer was indicted for reckless behavior for returning fire. so the chaos that we are watching is organized obvious, and provably true. so will there be consequences? wait till we find out who's paying for it and who's behind it, we investigate after the break. ♪ though hidden, i am here waiting for the rest of my life to unfold. soon i will arrive. (music)

or will i? it's really not up to me. be my campion in the fight for my life. (heart beat)

>> tucker: welcome back. we got live pictures on the screen right now from louisville, kentucky, where rioting has broken out following a grand jury decision this afternoon. one police officer indicted in the shooting of breonna taylor back in march, that was not enough for the writers. why are they doing this and who's paying for it? some of the richest corporations and biggest celebrities in the

country are paying. they openly supported it in minneapolis, and the multimillion dollar hearst corporation is soliciting donations to a fund for the rioters. so as an actor called dan leavy. "disgusted and heartbroken, please contribute if you can come up justice should not be a luxury. hashtag breonna taylor. meanwhile a woman named linda sarsour recently spoke at the democratic party's convention in august and tweeted this today. "rise up all across this country everywhere. rise up for breonna taylor. this is all in the open. they are calling for violence openly. how can this happen and what are the consequences? matt walsh has been following it and we are always happy to have him here. thanks for coming on.

if people are not even pretending anymore, they just rise up? what does that mean? what could it mean other than what obviously means? >> they are not pretending anymore. we have to keep emphasizing, although it certainly doesn't matter to the rioters. everything we've heard about the breonna taylor case is a lie, it was not a no knock warrant, they only fired because the boyfriend shot at the police first and they want their randomly. breonna taylor was on the warrant and they had reason to believe that she was involved in her convicted ex-boyfriend drug dealers drug trade. and conversations that the ex-boyfriend had recorded seemed to confirm that fact or at least strongly indicated. we know that the blm narrative is faulted every single time. look at ricardo munoz, dion k,

george floyd, all of the narratives there are at fault. we know that police brutality is just a pretense that's used. they have the right shields and the signs there regardless and they were going to use them no matter what the grand jury said. it's all just a pretense for this radical left wing insurrection, this well-funded coordinated insurrection and i think that's what this is, it's a pretense for that. i think the feds need to be hunting down the people coordinating this and charging them with sedition because that's what we are looking at. >> tucker: well, sure. if i went on twitter and said it send money to has the law, i have a feeling i would be shut down pretty quickly. and i have a feeling if i kept it up, people would get involved. people raise money for writers that are wrecking our country and everyone says that's completely cool. why? >> i think the reason people say it's cool or they tolerated it is because many americans --

most americans have been cowed into submitting to this ally so if you speak up against it then you are racist. even if it's a famous celebrity, lebron james is a multimillionaire superstar celebrity. somehow i doubt it, but people are afraid to say anything about it because they feel they will be disregarding the anger and angst of these writers. but it's all a farce. black lives matter, just in the last few days they scrubbed their website. they say things like we want to dismantle the nuclear family, but somewhere in the last few days they took all that stuff off. they realize that more americans are waking up to the fact that this is all just a pretense for the far left radical agenda that has nothing to do with racial justice. and so now they are trying to cover their tracks. >> tucker: but to some extent

it's on us, i mean we are putting up with this. if you own a business in louisville and the authority said there will be a riot because the writers don't like grand jury decisions, why wouldn't you just put a beach chair in front of your business and say i'm defending my business? i have a right to defend it and i'm going to, i'm not going to boarded up, this is america. we don't take orders from rioters, why is no one doing that? >> i agree with you and we seen this happen already where they defended their business then the next thing you know they could be going to jail for that. so either you burn down a business, or you are in prison enough to position that a lot of the state governments put people in. >> tucker: we are requiring correct cowardice of our population, it's very corrosive. matt walsh, you've been a brave

voice and i appreciate it. thank you. the democrats are running entire presidential campaign on the notion that police are racist and they are terrorists. that's in the democratic party's platform. so what are the consequences of it? this is a war on police. denny colson has thought a lot about it. thanks so much for coming on. where does this leave the leave the rest of us? i think we may have lost transmission from denny colson. we will go back to him when we get that back up and running. but once democrats defund the police, who will the rest of us turn to and who will democrats turn to? one city has an answer to that question, they will turn to. we will explain, next.

>> tucker: is a live look at louisville, kentucky, demonstrations continue after the grand jury was made there today. the question is, when all the police are gone, and that's the goal, the stated goal of blm, where will the rest of us be and who will replace them exactly? the city of seattle has thought about this more than anyone else in this week delivered an answer. we learned that seattle began paying $12,500 per month to a, a called andre taylor. taylor boasts he can communicate with gang members, and but won't sit down with anyone else. mayor jenny durkan, probably the worst american ever, but she

says she's proud of the deal. she said the lived experience is invaluable. it's a valuable experience. in 2,016, the about to go to war with seattle after they shot and killed his brother so he couldn't quite articulate until the geniuses in seattle came up with it. it's possible. jason, thanks for coming on. so are the answer to seattle's future? >> clearly that's not your go to solution, because you are not a crazy person. in seattle you decide to give this kind of power to someone and this is directly from the actual contract, he supposed to offer expertise and support services in de-escalation and alternatives to policing. this is someone who at the time of chop was out there trying to get medicaid and come up with deals for people to give up on

top so they could get up to one or $2 million going into sort of nebulous leave defined service groups that could help address some of the problems. they said he was going to be the go-between. that failed but it sounds like he's been rewarded with this $750 contracts that were used grew up in seattle you have a little bit of a leg up. all these rap lyrics talk about how hard it is to be a pimp, but turns out all you have to do is come to seattle. >> tucker: but i'm confused. it's selling other people so now the city of seattle has endorsed human trafficking? seems like a big change, or maybe not. >> tucker: it's not that big of a change. you have to go to ex pimp for these kinds of issues, but there was controversy just a few months ago in which the fpd came out and said we will make

arrests of and their pimps and the council went insane, you are not supposed to go after sacks workers, they are a protected class. it is it really, really bizarre. >> tucker: we say we are for women but we degrade motherhood and we elevate in vain. we sanctify abortion, it doesn't sound like we are for women. it doesn't? >> no, it's not for women at all. there are so many people who like to virtue sink, it's the appearance of being for people of color. however we just fired a hundred police officers, we are running other cops out of town eddie and again, we are now normalizing pimps. jason, great to see you tonight, thinking. so, hiring pimps, getting rid of

cops, and mark steyn is one of the few people in television as a whole suite of history and mind and we are happy to have him on tonight to consider what's going on in the country. what's going on in our country? >> just picking up on what you were talking about, it's a real job, and yes you treat women appallingly, and it's a real job and it's a hard job and it's a tough job. what mr. taylor is now doing as a nonjob and he's getting 150 grand for it which is actually more than most state governors get. he makes more than 30 governors including my own in new hampshire. and we all know this, the left know it and the msnbc guys know it, if you aren't seriously interested in any of the issues that have been roiling america for the last six months, you will not be appointing a pimp as

a street czar for 150 grand. that's just the usual attitude striking nonsense which is why sudden evictions in this country are in permanent decline. one reason why china is the number one power in the world is because it doesn't actually have to pay x pimps to become divers of kratz on handsome six-figure and salaries. but we all know we will do anything for the alleged issues roiling the country. >> tucker: so why are we paying our taxes? let me ask you that question, why are we paying our taxes? >> i think there's something to be said, if i was a taxpayer in seattle and we look at other cities in america where your businesses are ruined and your businesses are trashed, you can't even board up your saturday, ruined a business

minneapolis because he paid up front before they leave put some plywood in the window. so something could be said for a conscientious objective movement at least against municipal and state taxes until they get serious about this thing. but as we all know these jobs or jokes. sometimes they are harmless jokes. michelle obama was getting 350 grand to be a diverse-i cried because her husband was considered useful to the people paying. then when she went to washington to become first lady her job was so critical in chicago nobody even replace that. these jobs are a joke and they are part of the reason why a civilization in decline, and as long as you are talking about street czar is and up 150 grand, you are not serious and you've got notes or contribution to make to the conversation. >> tucker: that's exactly right. the left is at war with nature and in the end they will lose that war but in the meantime

they are breaking everything. mark steyn, great to see you. >> thanks a lot, tucker. >> tucker: we have evolving news out of the city of louisville, there are reports of a shooting and we will have more information on that on the side of the break. we will be right back.

>> tucker: fox news alert, reports coming in from our fox nation station in louisville and a reporter there tells us a police officer apparently was shot in the middle of these riots tonight. my live report as we have more information on that. again, that's what we just heard so we will fill you in on details as we get them. the democrats meanwhile have spent the last six months telling us that police are racist and terrorists, that's literally in the democratic party platform. this is one police going to have long-term effects in the country including you and your family. we tried to ask danny colson that question earlier in the show and the shot went down and then we wanted to hear his answer. what are the consequences of

this long term for us to do you think? >> if you destabilize the police and defund them then what will have ultimately tucker is, nature doesn't like voids and they will fill the void and that's where vigilante activity comes in. if police won't protect us than the society individually and in groups start protecting themselves and receive vulcanization of our country, more people living in isolation and hiring more private bodyguards and maybe even worse than not taking their own action to go out and defend themselves which i think they should do. but then that can lead to all kinds of problems so we need the police, we don't need more pimps. the duty of society is to protect its citizens and to demonize police, first of all it's a lie, they are not racist. individuals may be but institutions there are not.

it's time for the federal government to step up >> i'm afraid right now. i'm afraid for my life to go shopping. i'm afraid for my grandchildren to be out in public. that's probably an overreaction with regard to fear. i live in a safe state, texas. my home county is safe. i was concerned about my friends in oregon. my son is a policeman there.

people in oregon are concerned about antifa and black lives matter coming to the suburbs and setting things on fire. we need police on the local level, the federal level, to go after these guys. we do that, we're good. >> tucker: justice unifies us. law enforcement unifies us. the lack of it divides us. danny colson, thank you. we made a mistake at the top of the show and we want to correct it. we flip the names front of a couple people inadvertently. we said police believed breonna taylor's boyfriend was a drug dealer. it might have been. we met to see her ex-boyfriend. we wanted to correct that, sor sorry. news on the ground in louisville. we know a police officer was just shot there. in the midst of the writing. gathering details, we will have a live report. we'll be right back.

- hello world do you see me? though hidden, i am here waiting for the rest of my life to unfold. soon i will arrive. (music) or will i? it's really not up to me. be my campion in the fight for my life. (heart beat)

>> tucker: back with a fox news alert. we can confirm a police officer has been shot in the riots in louisville. disgusting. demonstrations and chaos have been going on them in that city since early this afternoon when a grand jury reached a verdict in the breonna taylor case. matt finn is in louisville. matt. >> tucker, that shooting happened a distance from us. we will keep you updated on the louisville police officer brantley shot here in the city. police have declared this area on an unlawful assembly and over the past hour or so they've been coming over the loudspeaker warning people to clear the area because they started lighting fires, some of which you can still see. they started throwing objects at police and police declared an unlawful assembly and they warned everyone to clear the area. it's much calmer than it was a

short while ago. we have officers in s.w.a.t. gear. we have bearcats. they are going back-and-forth between an ongoing standoff with protesters who are coming up and screaming and yelling at them. this is a much calmer, less dangerous situation than a short while ago. earlier in the day today, there was a large crowd hear people chanting profanities against police. people screaming and officers' faces, throwing objects at them. they established a little bit of peace here in the area right n now. >> tucker: yeah, okay. matt finn, appreciated. thank thank you. so there is video out we just saw some of it. we can't confirm it so we're not going to put it on tonight. you should look for yourself. shots going off in louisville. people running under an overpass very loud, screaming "they are shooting at cops." clearly someone was shooting at cops because as we just told you, one of them was hit. we don't know his condition.

we don't have those details but we will have them. they will be ignored by the other channels. the macro question is this and it's the one almost should meditate on. why is this happening? it's happening because a grand jury represented citizens who represent our justice system, the fairest in the world, one of the oldest of the world, a system that assure served us ve. ugh group of angry, violent dumb people didn't like it. they were abetted, they were funded by some of those privileged people in our society. what does that tell you? if you don't like a court decision, you get to shoot cops? said business is on fire, destroy cities? that is a precedent that we have set and that we have confirmed again and again and again since memorial day weekend. it's not a precedent we can live with. things will fall apart unless things --

making it clear that just because you don't like a decision the system produces, you don't have the right to hurt people, period. a lot is at stake. coverage continues with sean hannity who takes over in about ten seconds. we'll be back tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m. here is sean. >> sean: all right,, thank you. prayers with the family. we are breaking news. welcome to "hannity." we are in the swamp washington, d.c. according to our affiliate w letter drb, one police officer confirm shot in downtown louisville and tonight's ongoing protest, we're going to take you to the scene, we have video coming in as we speak. it's 9:00 p.m. in kentucky in louisville where a citywide curfew is now in effect right now at this hour. businesses, local residents are bracing for a long night of unrest after a grand jury indicted one now fired louisville police officer with three counts of first-degree

wanton endangerment endangerment related to a
