p.m. eastern time. on jon scott thanks so much for joining us this evening. have yourself a great weekend. ♪ ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to tucker carlson tonight. we covered the rioting in louisville kentucky. a blm supporter in louisville was arrested for shooting two police officers. authorities say the man just ran up and opened fire on the cops purely because they were cops there was no context or controversy. the man was trying to assassinate the police for political reasons. straightforward case of attempted murder. it was a case of terrorism, really. that's not what the shooter is being charged with tonight. we thought we would bring you up to date on that story. prosecutors have, instead.

charged the, wanton endangerment and assault with trying to assassinate police officers. that's a very light charge. even nonlawyers can tell that why? why did they charge him with that? you know why. authorities were afraid of provoking more arson and destruction if they gave the gunman what he deserved. so they didn't give him what he deserved because they were intimidated by the mob. they let blm control the justice system in louisville which is to say control society that what are the cons kansas of that strited are blocked by anile lists. eating in restaurants. we have seen let of that, places where would be assassins who shoot the police aren't really punished for it. normal people flee cities like that and around the country they have in huge numbers.

when they leave they take the tax base from them. it can last for decades we have seen that city after city over half a century. detroit has not recovered from 1967. and it's happening again. so just last week louisville was a perfectly nice city tonight it's in long-term trouble. the mob destroyed more than a few store fronts. how is this happening and who is abetting it? last night we telling you about a organization called the bail project sends reuters and other violent criminals to help get them back on the street. the bail project as much as any other group has been funding the violence we have been watching. two nights ago an organizer by the bail project was arrested by the police in louisville for rioting. a woman called holy was bring riot supplies into the city of louisville. we showed you that video.

>> watch your back. [bleep] >> the bail project is funding the riots that are destroying our cities. the question is who is funding the bail project? well, we have been looking at that richard branson sends money to the bail project so does jason. but according to published documents, the single biggest donor to the bail project is the chairman of its board former hedge fund manager michael novograth he has been one of the richest people in the united states. he runs the board. almost immediately after we did that, he sent us a message on twitter, quote: would love to come on your show and discuss the great work that the bail project does. well, of course, we have accepted that request immediately. we'll wanted to hear his side of the story. we always do want to hear the other side. so we planned for that tonight. we were going to open our show with an interview with michael in. novo grat.

he panicked. he didn't want to talk about the great work that the bail project does. he was afraid and he backed out. michael novo grat will not be joining us tonight. it's still worth knowing what he has been doing it's paid more than $26 million in bail for suspected criminals. 3w5eu8d out more than 12,000 people from jail. who are the people they have bailed out? well, they are people like samuel lee scott of the city of chicago. scott was in jail facing assault charges for punching his wife. after he hit her, reportedly he said, quote, i might as well finish the job since you are going to contact the police. so he was in jail and then the bail project came to the rescue. they sprung him. hours after novo grat's group did that he wished his wife to death. we wish he were here tonight to tell us what he thinks of that did he regret making it possible for samuel lee scott to murder his wife? we would love to know that. if novo grat were here we would ask him about christopher stewart. is he also from chicago.

stewart's ex-girlfriend got a protection order against him after he fired a pistol at his son's birthday party. you i should pop you right now he apparently said to her. he went to group. michael novo gramplet rath's group got him out of jail. he proceeded to set his ex-girlfriend's house on fire. police had to rescue her from her home as she dangle you from the kitchen window. once he was put back in the cook county jail he knew who to thank. he thanked the bail project for their help. the bail project, he said, was quote the best thing that ever happened to me. his girlfriend was probably less ebb thiews as stick about it. kenneth king was booked for assaulting a women. a lot of people hurting women getting bailed out by michael novograth. they bailed him out again when he committed larceny. then they bailed out a man called matthew richardson after they say he tried to blow up the car in the parking lot of the pentagon. they helped a man called

blockton pay his $2,500 bail after he was picked up on first degree robbery charge. months later he was arrested again for armed robbery. et cetera, et cetera. there are many cases like this. how many are there? well the bail project won't tell us. probably they don't keep track. why do they care what the consequences of what they do? they don't. people like michael novograth don't live near the neighborhood these policies destroy. when the bail project got mario young out of prison on a weapons charge they told him they would help him find a job. they gave him a state i.d. card. they didn't. quote, it never happened young said a few weeks later young was back in jail on cocaine trafficking charges. you shouldn't be surprised, violent felons released on bail go on to reoffend at extremely high rates. what's the left's solution to that? well, stop brighting them for the crimes they commit. legalize it and then no one goes to jail. novograth agrees he gave a donation to a candidate in

queens called tiffany. he doesn't live in queens. he has homes nut safest neighborhoods in america. of course, he can afford to support her because he doesn't have to live with the consequences of her ideas. she ran on decriminalizing drug use an prostitution and other qe crimes of poverty. as if poverty forces people to commit crime. what a patronizing absurdity that is. all of this is fine with michael novograth there are never going to be pitchers and junkies out outside of his house. praised as activist. critically this is the point by funding the bail project and groups like it, he and progressives like him buy immunity from the obvious questions that actual journalists might ask them otherwise. questionings like how exactly did you make billions of dollars? and how precisely do hedge funds and crypto currency trading make this a better country? those are the real questions. no one ever asks them. we would like to ask michael novograth ourself but as we said

he canceled. supposedly he will be here monday night. we hope so. we will see. the author of you who trump is make making black great again he joins us now. thanks so much for coming on. this strikes me as an extremely decadent project and, in fact, i should just say the bail project has been criticized by jesse jackson in chicago for bailing out murderers. and i think jackson who is right in this case was making the point they don't even live here. they don't have to live with the consequences of it. this seems appalling to me or am i missing something? >> this is a radical assault assault on justice system. predicated on the theory that if you are poor, if you are a minority, you have no choice no control the and forced to engage in this crime. the problem of that is the data shows exactly the opposite.

just because you are poor and millions of people who are poor or black or brown, millions of people are they manage to work every day past the 7-eleven, pass grandma with her purse hanging down, they don't snatch it, they don't break into the 7-eleven. in fact, millions of people every day manage to be law abiding it. is a few people who have decided that the rules don't apply to them. and the bail project and projects like it say to those people guess what? we have got your back. well, who has got the back of the families and the victims and the communities? you are right to note that cities like detroit or even washington, d.c. took decades, if longer after rioting and looting and destruction that occur when crime is allowed to

run rampant. too many of our cities right now are suffering. these groups are a cancer on american society and that is something that if we had a working, trustworthy media, they would be giving a lot more attention. to say. >> tucker: i wonder why it never occurs to crypto currency traders like michael novogratz, tell me what crypto currency trading is. why does it not occur to them to, i don't know, hire 700 poor people in downtown louisville to work at their crypto currency trading firm. if they really want to help, why don't they give people jobs? whwhyare they siding with the murderers and wife beaters? >> it is proved the goal here is not to improve the community. the goal here is not to make sure that people can become independent. the goal is actually to attack

directly the very criminal justice system that makes it possible for the rest of us to carry out our lives. we forget, we forget that in the early 1950s, many of these radical ideas were pushed and they went into effect in the 1960s. it took until the 1980s for the political system, the american system, the american people to come together and say wait a second. decriminalization, looking the other way, it doesn't work. and we have had nearly 30 years of benefit from rejecting that craziness. the problem is base we have had it good for so long, people aren't noticing that we are experiencing a crime epidemic in too many of our cities. groups like these are poison.

they are the cill and justice what an arsonist is to forest management. >> tucker: i think that's a really wise point and demonstrable and in a country that cared about itself and believed in itself wouldn't put up with this for one second. horace cooper, thank you so much. i appreciate you coming on tonight. >> thank you. >> tucker: we look forward to talking to michael novogratz on monday. his assistant called and said he would be here. we hope that's true. new cdc numbers in the coronavirus are. in the survival rates are ally with the shocking, actually. if you haven't seen them, stay tuned for this. it will change how you feel about this pandemic. we'll be right back. ♪ ♪ c)

- 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: so we shut down the country and spent a trillion dollars and made everyone wear masks and huddle at home. we didn't allow people into hospitals or nursing homes all because the coronavirus was so scary and so dangerous. it is dangerous and it can be scary. more than 200,000 people have died. but that doesn't mean that everyone is at risk. the details actually matter. so as part of our ongoing commitment to science on this show we will give you the new cdc numbers. they show the vast majority of

americans face no risk, virtually no risk. for people aged one year to 69 years, the survival rate post infection with covid is over 99%. for young people under the age of 20, which is most college students, who are being thrown out of school for congregating outside, the survival rate from the cdc is 99.997%. why are we doing this again? particularly on college campuses? dr. marc siegel has thought a lot about this, he has covered the story from day one. he is our fox news medical contributor. we are happy to have him on tonight. good to see you. >> hi, tucker. the media obsessing on the number 200,000, right? we are looking at both sides of this. we are looking at the death rate. we are looking at the number 200,000. we take it very seriously. we are also looking at this good news about survival improving, increasing. now, first, on the 200,000, i want to point out that a new study out of oxford showed that over 30% of those deaths are not

covid. there are other causes and they also happen to have covid. the second point about that is that most of the deaths, 35 to 50% are still occurring in nursing homes. a lot of that is preventable. but that's why the statistic you just said that over the age of 70 is where the deaths are occurring. under 70 it's almost impossible you are going to die. and, yet, from covid. and yet fear messagin messaging continues. everyone out there, if you have a covid diagnosis i bet it percolates in your brain that it could be you. why is the survival inreissing so dramatically? it's because of earlier diagnosis. it's because of great medical care. it's because of remdesivir a drug we talked about first in nebraska. death though meth zone. plasma, new antibodies coming out. plazana. all good news, tucker. why the fear-messaging? why the message to the public that you could be next? i have one answer for that,

tucker, it's because it's an election year. and because an election is coming up. that's not fair tout american public. so tonight i want to say once again the science has to triumph over the politics, tucker. >> tucker: so, the american population voted trump into office in 2016 and this is our long awaited punishment. it's one of the worst things our country has ever done, i would say. if you look at the effects on children and if you have kids you know. shocking what we're doing to them. really is. dr. siegel, thank you. >> tucker, if you have bacterial newspaperria, there is a 14% chance you are going to die. if you have ebola it's 50%. here, if you are under 70, it's almost zero. tucker? >> tucker: yeah, spinal meningitis kills a lot more college students than covid. great to see you. california is on fire because of arsonists and years of total mismanagement of the forest by so-called environmentalists who can't name a single tree species. that's not the case according to the governor of the state gavin newsom. he announced the real problem

which is your car which is driven by gasoline because you can't afford as at thela, you prol. starting in 20035 tesl 20035s ag to ban the sail of all gas powered vehicles. that's going to mean you will have to buy an electric vehicle and charge it with electricity which comes from a coal plant and that will solve global warming, right. michael sellenberger author of environmental politics why alarmism hurts us all. he joins us tonight. thank you so much for coming on. began all gas-powered cars. if you don't have a tesla, you are shaft. will this help? >> i mean, this is nuts. we have never create you had new technologies by banning existing ones. we didn't get jet planes by banning propeller airplanes. we didn't get gasoline powered automobiles by backing horses and carriages. we are not going to get electric cars cheaper and more reliable

and going longer distances by banning gasoline powered cars. we have had electric cars on the market 25 years. last year 2% of all new cars sold were electric quarters. they are just really expensive. they have all the problems everybody is aware of. low range and as you mentioned, you know, if you were designing a policy to hurt poor and working people, this would be it. california's electricity rates went up six times more than the rest of the united states since 2011. we had electricity shortages a few weeks ago. if you were to add our entire transportation sector and make it electrical, you would shut down the entire transportation sector when we are running out of electricity. so it's nuts. this is just pure politics. the governor is trying to distract attention from his terrible management of much more important issues. the fires which resulted from forest mismanagement. the homeless crisis which was 100,000 people, many of them mentally severely ill on the street it's a distraction. >> tucker: almost seems like everything california does. new york is the same.

other states are this way as well, is designed to make people below a certain threshold much more miserable. am i imagining that? >> no. i mean look at what happened. as the economy over the last few years with the economy going really well in california, it was poor and working class people who got cars for the first time and it resulted in a decline in bus ridership in southern california. when working people have a chance for freedom and mobility, i mean, southern california particularly and all of california we depend on our cars more than anybody else. we are spread out over large distances. working people in particular need their vehicles. i just think there is a lot of people that really hate the freedom that cars have opened up. that's really the origin as i describe in apocalypse never the origins of the turn against mobility and freedom really start with a really dark impulse and dark view of humans back in the 160s. >> tucker: i think that's right. interesting how the population become so passive that people sort of nod and accept and it

okay it's for the -- i will wear my mask and i guess i won't drive. but i guess i can't really afford to live within an hour of the city because of your stupid housing policy has made totally impossible. i have to live inland somewhere. i guess i will just ride one of your buses. why do people put up with this after a while. any idea? >> it's really manipulative. some of us are here because we love the natural environment. we are here for the oceans and mountains. we are being manipulated. we are actually being sold a bill of goods. these policy does not help the natural environment. as we have seen, the forests have been grossly mismanaged. completely a contributed grossly exaggerated the role of climate change. this is a state you can see what happens when you have unchecked power. we have had a super majority democrat. i'm a long time democrat myself. this is what you get when you have a single party ruling with a super majority. >> tucker: the lectures about the environment are almost too much for me to handle. these people hate nature. they are at war with nature. they ignore the imperatives of

nature. they punish anyone who mentions those imperatives and yet they are the representatives of nature? michael, thank you for -- go ahead, you can finish your sentence. >> well, look, if the governor really cared about climate change, he wouldn't be shutting down our last nuclear power plant which provides electricity for 3 million people without any carbon emissions. it takes 300 to 400 times more land to generate the same amount of electricity from solar and wind projects as it does from a nuclear plant. this is a nuclear plant that could operate until 2060 and he is trying to shut it down by 2025. where is all that electricity from our vehicles going to come from if he keeps shutting down. >> tucker: and wind farms destroy the environment as anybody can tell you. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: sources tell fox news that donald trump has settled on a supreme court nominee. this will be great news for many who are watching, amy coney barrett apparently will get the nod tomorrow. what can we expect? that announcement? we will tell you after the

break. ♪ ♪ you are an american spy. the sentence... ...is death. we're getting out of here. infidel. rated r.

>> tucker: we told you about an fbi investigation and a state investigation into a mail-in ballot fraud scandal in pennsylvania. the officials there apparently open to military ballots most of which were cast to donald trump and then threw them in the trash. today lucerne county officials were reassuring us by saying not a big deal. in fact, they said, the system worked, quote: exactly how intended. in a statement officials blamed temporary contractor for incorrectly discarding the ballots. they insisted no one tension nally threw away the trump vote. by way of insurance they note a security camera has been installed just in case. problem solved. not a big deal. meanwhile fox learned today that more than a thousand voters applied for ballots have received an extra ballot in the mail. truly the system is working exactly as intended. an extra ballot can come in

handy when a temporary contractor throws your old one nut trash. of course we will be seeing a lot more stories like this nut next few weeks. we will keep you updated as they happen. this is what happens when you stop voting in person and change a system that's worked perfectly well for 225 years. ♪ well the other big news of the week, sources tell fox tonight that acket will be the president's nominee to replace the late ruth bader ginsburg on the supreme court. announcement planned for tomorrow. already democratic operatives are smearing barrett's family and her religion. trump campaign legal advisor jenna ellis joins us to tell us what to expect for this nomination fight. jenna, great to see you. >> great to see you. >> tucker: we are fairly certain the nominee will be amy coney barrett. >> i am not going to get ahead of the president. this nominee presents the best possible opportunity for conservatives to come back to the original design and intent of the constitution greater than

the last 75 years. for the judicial branch to work as intended. >> we have to have judges that are not policy activists. if you relate this to a baseball field, the democrats have had the umpires in their pocket in the majority for the last 50 and 60 years. we need to return to conservative originalists who won't be activists and who will fairly call balls and strikes. >> tucker: yeah, if you want to change the country we have a legislative branch for that people get to vote for their members and they vote on our behalf. don't use courts for that, of course. how could you attack amy coney barrett? she seems like outstanding person. >> yes, she is. and you know the democrats have already gone after her faith if you think about this the democrats with brett kavanaugh smeared and just absolutely attacked him over perceived and fabricated immorality and now attacking a woman for being devoutly moral. this just shows that the

democrats are a moral. they don't have a set of standards. they are all about just their own power. can you bet they are going to attack her and smear her for her faith because this is all about roe v. wade for them this is you will about their own activism and manipulating the constitution and throwing out the constitution entirely to their own advantage the senate should not let that happen. we have had confirmations of supreme court justices and votes throughout our nation's history and a vote from the senate judiciary committee 14 times within three days of the nominee. there is precedent for this. and further the constitution doesn't specify those time frames. so this can happen relatively quickly. it's not pushing her through. it's just not allowing the democrats to use this as an opportunity for a circus like they did with kavanaugh. >> tucker: what do you think realistically the quickest she could be confirmed is. >> well, if we look at history it could be the same day. that's happened before in our nation's history.

but i think that mitch mcconnell and also lindsey graham and others on the senate judiciary committee will try to hold these hearings in a way that is expressly designed to make sure that it's expeditious and it's moving through. and i do think that she will be confirmed before the election. and we should have that. because we need a nine justice full court when we are going to deal with things on election integrity matters. other things that are paramount to making sure that this country knows that there is legitimacy in our free and fair elections. and no one is disenfranchised as an american citizen. >> tucker: do you think mcconnell can hold the republicans on, this those votes? >> absolutely. and i think that the republicans understand how important this is to the future of our country. and if you look at what's happened in 2020, this isn't just about the presidential race. this isn't just about roe v. wade, this is about making sure that we protect our american system and how our constitution is designed. we know that our rights come from god our creator not our government. the sole purpose of government

to protect and preserve those rights. we have so many issues that democrats are trying to tear down the system and i think republicans are understanding that. they are seeing the necessity of a conservative court that will fairly and appropriately apply the constitution and i think that senators, you know, mitt romney and cory gardner from my home state of colorado i think some of these people are looking at, i think they will hold the line because they understand this is important to america. it's not about policy. it's about having a judiciary that's in its proper role and they support the president on this. >> tucker: i think that's right. the truth is republicans in the senate can't point to a long list of achievements over the past two years. we rained in bireigned in big t. we brought the intel agencies to heal and reform them. they didn't do those things. it might be nice to have something to run on. >> i hope so. i hope they will confirm this nominee expeditiously. >> tucker: jenna ellis, great to see you tonight, thank you. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: joe biden has been

trying halder to tell us something for years now. no one listened to him. we assembled the footage and devoted what he has been trying to communicate all this time. he has a message to the world. we are going to play it next. plus, we are monitoring the ongoing trump rally. there is a another -- newport news, virginia. if news develops we will go there immediately. ♪ ♪

♪ >> tucker: if you watch joe biden a lot you know it can be hard to understand what he is saying. often joe biden himself doesn't seem to know what he is saying. but we decided to crack the code so like the football coaches we are at heart, we turn to the tape. it turns out when you assemble the footage from joe biden wants speeches over the years, a spine comes in to view. a consistent message emerges. that message is that joe biden is the best person who has ever lived. he is solely responsible for everything good in this world. watch. >> i'm the guy after 9/11 said

[laughter] on tuesday night, joe biden will be debating, despite our predictions turns out he is actually going to do it, it looks like. one thing we know he will be the guy. last night we told you about the

risk of mail-in voting. we will see a lot of it this year. as we did, we didn't go conspiracy theory on you. we didn't tell you they are stealing the election. we told you about the real risks involved. and there are. demonstrable. we pointed to numerous cases of mail-in ballot fraud. in states like west virginia and new jersey. we talked about missing ballots in places like pennsylvania and wisconsin. we know that partisan judges in swing states are pushing mail-in balloting because they believe it helps their party. they know it will delay the election results and may give them a chance though influence in the end. so simply because no one can argue with any of this, because it's factual, twitter decided to censor us for saying it. after the president tweet our monologue twitter append alleged fact check to the bottom of the post it read quote learn how voting by mail is safe and secure. huh? the fact check simply says mail-in ballot fraud is rare. really? how does twitter know that? well, they don't know that they don't know anything.

they are making a political statement, a fact-free political statement that amounts to propaganda. they are supposed to be a platform. they are not supposed to be a news organization. that's why they have immunity under section 230. they shouldn't. any case, for the first time in our nation's history, mail-in balloting will be conducted on a very large scale. so this is a story that we need to cover because it will affect hot next president is. the whole country can vote by mail with almost no restrictions. twitter knows that that will increase the opportunities for fraud. they just don't want you to know that. facebook, another huge tech company, took a very different approach. yesterday afternoon, in response to our coverage of the origins of the coronavirus, facebook sent us a message that read this way, quote: your page -- has reduced distribution and other restrictions because of repeated sharing of false news. we were accused of false news because the goal of totalitarianism is always humiliation facebook added this

quote people will also be able to see if a page has a history of sharing false news. so we got the scarlet false newsletter. so immediately after they made that announcement this show's facebook account became virtually invisible. our traffic flat-lined. facebook then reached out to us and claimed it was all a mistake and they would remove the ban. oh, a mistake. heard that before? yes. it's a familiar strategy. earlier this week, just this week twitter told us that our commentary or george soros and the money he is spending on various elections around the country, again, totally factual, was flagged as sensitive content accidentally. why do these mistakes keep happening with the same effect? you know why. it's censorship and silicon valley is stepping it up because election is on the horizon six weeks away and they want to influence the outcome. they need plausible didn't until joe biden wins in november and installs their executives and lobbyists at the white house. at at that time they won't have a reason to hide. they will be running the country

whereby den likes it or not. yeah, we don't like that view. it's not allowed. i wish we would reign them in a little bit. up next, a left wing dox and harass a bar owner in nebraska. his crime was voting the wrong way. he defended himself against the blm write his or her tried to kill him. but they kept attacking him. he was defunded on the internet. weighs attacked in the media and ultimately he was indicted by prosecutors who bowed to the mob and charged him. last week he killed himself. after the break we will look at what kind of man that bar owner was. his name is jake gardner. you should know more about his life. plus, we are monitoring the trump rally in the state of virginia tonight. we will bring you any news that develops there. we'll be right back. ♪ ♪ c)

>> tucker: as you may have heard the first presidential debate is coming up airing on fox news right after this show. tonight there are new calls for joe biden not to show up from democrats. skip it, joe biden, they are

saying. fox news rick leventhal has been following that story and joins us with the latest. >> hey, tucker, house speaker nancy pelosi doubling down on her suggestion joe biden not debate president trump next tuesday as scheduled. not that i don't think he will be excellent, she said of vice president joe biden. she told cbs that president trump has no fidelity to fact or truth. the california democrat suggested the debates might become, quote, an exercise this skull duskull dugiy. >> i don't think there should be any debates. i do not think that the president of the united states has comported himself in a way that anybody -- has any association with truth, evidence, data and facts. i wouldn't legitimize a conversation with him. >> today nancy pelosi said why

bother? he doesn't tell the truth. says the president is a danger to democracy. the first debate is tuesday night here on fox with our own chris wallace moderating. >> tucker: rick leventhal, thanks for that. >> sure. >> tucker: trump is a danger to democracy. so you shouldn't get to hear what he is for. because i'm for democracy. even in the year full of irony it's getting a bit much. well, blm is a massive political force in this country. one thing we know about you are not allowed to criticize blm. no matter how many cities they burn and how many cops they shoot, you can't say a word. a police commander in louisville by the name of bridgette hall hand learned that lesson the hard way today she has been relieved of duty after she dared to criticize antifa and blm in a message to her colleagues here is what she wrote these antifa and blm people do not deserve a second glance or thought from us our pinky toe nails have more

morals, ethics than these punks have in their entire body. she added cops and families being doxxed because people don't like being told what to do or what not to do by police. she also suggested many antifa members play video games all day in their parents' basement all of which is true and that's why brigitte hall hand is out of a job tonight. her last day on the force will be october 1st. shocking. in the meantime, plenty of other cops around the country are realizing the same things that hallahan did they are leaving the force on their own steam. new york and chicago total of 272 police officers retired in new york city alone from may to june. many of them are setting anti-police rhetoric, funding cuts and of course the danger of violence which is real. cops are getting shot around the country. look at the numbers. those numbers keep going up. in the meantime you are not allowed to say any of this. just ask bridgette hallahan.

speaking of not being allowed to tell the truth in may nebraska bar owner was attacked during blm riots in the state of nebraska and omaha. one rioter went after his family and several store fronts before grabbing gardner's neck jumping on his back and put him in a head lock. get off me said. the man wouldn't. he choked gardner and then gardner shot and killed him. prosecutors originally described this as self-defense because it was and they declined to press charges. but then mobs descended on the home of the douglas county attorney. the left wing doxxed and cline. finally klein relented and he charged gardner. so gardner tried to raise money for his own defense. he went online to go fund me. the biggest fundraising site. go fund me deleted those pages that would have raised money. he was out of options and on sunday as clear was the intent of the mob he killed himself. our next guest spoke with a close friend of gardner's who

talked with him last weekend. me a thank you for joining us. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: what can you tell us about jake gardner, his final days. what he was going through when he took his own life. >> i spoke to his close friend who reached out to jake the night before he killed himself. he said that all jake wanted to do was travel the country with his service dog brawn. but the mob wouldn't let him. shawn king called him a white supremacist. a local blogger claimed that the swastika symbol was hidden in jake's company logo that's insane conspiracy when jake's friend launched go fund me account and both were taken down the donors flames compiled in a public blacklist. meanwhile james scurlock's go fund me has raised over a quarter of a million dollars. jake's friend has since launched alternative spot fund account which sadly turned into a memorial fund and his family held a contributed last night. the venue has changed because of

continued threats. the mob drove jake to suicide. and even after death, they say no justice, no peace. their family is currently seeking to bury the former soldier at arlington national cemetery. hopefully with the help of president trump, which would be a final resting place safe from the relentless -- relentless mob. >> tucker: gofundme has been aggressive and political to shut down the accounts of people's whose politics they don't like. they should be ashamed and they should be punished. in this case did they give a reason for deleting the fund gofundme for him? >> there were a flood of complaints from the twitter mob. this was not racially charged, the shooting. this is protecting the private property and business owner fearing for his life. >> tucker: is there any evidence whatsoever, you keep hearing people, including elected officials, a state

official in nebraska saying that gardner was a white supremacist, racist and a bad person. is there any evidence of that? at all? >> no evidence. he was a war veteran and he served two tours in iraq. there is no evidence of this. this is a neighborhood business owner. >> tucker: yeah. if they can do this to him, a man just trying to defend himself, then they can do it to all of us. that is exactly the point. boy, i really appreciate you're coming on to give us the details of the story, mia. upsetting. >> thank you. >> tucker: appreciate it. you can see what is going on i imagine. prosecutors pressing the charges or not pressing charges based on the demands of the mob. at the same moment the american society becomes more chaotic and more threatening. anyone who tries to defend himself or his family or his property is shut down immediately with the help of

the tech companies. what does that add up to? china. that is it for us tonight. we'll be back monday 8:00 p.m. the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness and group think. have a great weekend with the ones you love. sean hannity is next. ♪ >> sean: all right. it's 9:00 p.m. on the east coast. 6:00 p.m. on the west coast. we begin with fox news on a busy friday night. fox news alert. welcome to "hannity." sources are telling fox news that president trump is planning to nominate circuit court judge amy coney barrett to the u.s. supreme court. we are expecting the formal announcement tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. eastern time. i don't know amy coney barrett personally but when you look at her record and her own life it's beyond impressive. i hope she is ready for the repulsive viciousness that is about to become her and her family's world. sad. brace yourselves. democrats are attacking her
