we will be here. tucker starts now. >> tucker: good evening. welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." at some point soon, we are told, maybe tonight possibly, joe biden may take the stage and declare himself the president-elect of the united states. it's an aggressive and unusual move. there is vote counting still underway. the biden campaign behavior in the last 24 hours raises questions about our electoral system and whether it's what we assumed it was. we will address that in a moment. the first question tonight is more basic. who is joe biden?

this man who claims to be our president? we ought to find out. the truth is as of tonight we don't really know. we have no clue what joe biden thinks or if he is capable of thinking. he hasn't told us. no one made him tell us. for a full year now. that's by design. it's clear there is no joe biden. the man you may remember from the 1980s is gone. he no longer exists. what remains is a projection of sorts mimicking the behavior of a non-threatening political candidate. joe biden smiles a lot. that's the message. don't think too much. who is running the projector? first the people behind joe biden are not liberals, though we have called them that incorrectly on the show. a liberal believes in the right of all americans to speak freely

and worship their own god and do that regardless of what political party they belong to or what race they are born into. a liberal believes in universal principles fairly applied. the funny thing is all of that describes most of the 70 million people who just voted for donald trump. most don't want to hurt or control anyone. they have no interest in silencing the opposition on facebook or anywhere else. they want to live their lives in the country they are born in. not a lot to ask. so they are liberals although our language is so distorted you would never know it. you know the people behind joe biden are not like that at all. they don't believe in dissent. that's not them at all. they demand obediance.

diversity is the last thing they want. it's a cruel joke. these people seek absolute sameness. total uniformity. you are happy with your corner coffee shop. they want to make you drink star bucks every day from now until forever no matter how it tastes. that's the future they promise. everyone doing the same thing. if these seem like corporate values, then you are catching on to what is happening. the joe biden for president campaign is a corporate enterprise. the first one in american history to come this close to the presidency. its values and slogans and goals come from the hr department. if a multi-national corporation created a presidential candidate he will be from wilmington, delaware. that's what they got.

what is good for google is good for the biden campaign. we have never seen a more soulless project. they picked kamala harris as the vice-president, someone who can't even pronounce her own name, not that it matters. we watched all of this come together in real time. we stood slack jawed in disbelief as a man with no constitency rose to the top of the political system. it's possible that joe biden never convinced a single voter of anything over the duration of the presidential campaign. but he didn't have to. joe biden won the democratic nomination because he was not bernie sanders. he came to where he is today because he is not donald trump. that's the entire story. the shortest political book ever written. whatever you may think of donald trump and bernie sanders, they did it the traditional way.

each has the support of actual voters, living, breathing people loved them. believed in them. vested their hopes in them and agreed with their ideas when they articulated clearly. corporate america hated them both. they could not be controlled particularly donald trump. his unwillingness to submit, that's why they hate donald trump, because he won't obey. these forces may are winning. what then? who do we say really won the election? joe biden? that's insulting. the tech companies and big banks and the government of china anded media establishment and the billionaire class, they will have won.

not in a way that democracy promises. with numbers alone, if a single person equaled a single vote, a coalition like that could never win anything. as a group they have something that donald trump's voters don't have, that's power. they plan to wield that power whether you like it or not. it's all starting to look like oligarchy at this point. the people who believe they should have been in charge all along may now be in charge. what does that mean to the rest of us? now that corporate america controls everything, will they declare victory and back off? can we speak freely again? can we have america back? now that the great orange emergency has passed, will the orders be lifted.

and one other thing, who is excited to greet our new corporate leaders. who on the right side, the republican side that said it's defending you. who is happy about all of this? that's worth keeping track of so we know who we are dealing with here. the ceo of american majority keeps track and joins us tonight. ned, great to see you. we don't know where this is going. votes are being counted and there are apparent irregularities. when people think is over. who are they? >> you are right and your opening monologue it's incumbent

on trump to not stop. the american people deserve a free and fair election they can trust. think about it, you are right. this ruling class of big tech and corporations. all of these people think they can get rid of trump and we will go back to normal. they are delusional. the point i want to make is that trump has 70 million american people. he illuminated everything whether it's the danger of china and the big tech and fake news. a litany of issues. they are delusional if they think these people are going to disappear if they take out trump. they are weded to a broken system that sold out the american people. they will try to snap back to advancing balances that are going to sellout the american

people and the middle class especially. they won't fix immigration or trade deals or break up big tech. yet, this is only going to accelerate what comes next. america first is not going away. >> tucker: i was interested -- i want to highlight one thing. in the comments of lindsey graham who just won reelection in south carolina because conservatives voted for him. people around trump put pressure on lindsey graham to send them money. he sent them 500 grand. on the issues that matter, lindsey graham immediately ran away from the ideas he claimed to support and said he will be happy to sellout his voters with an amnesty deal. within hours of the election. >> this is the surround caucus. -- surrender caucus. they can't wait to get back to where they control the republican party. i am talking not only about

lindsey graham, mitt romney, even liz cheney. they can't get enough of th the vultour capitalism. -- he's been in control of the party. they hope he will be removed from it. these are the kind of people, tucker, who have been surrendering and going along to get along. don't know how to win. a lot of their policies, they have been more concerned about rebuilding the middle east than the midwest. it's a shameful part of the republican party. they are doing nothing for the most part right now to stand up and say we won't let this happen what is taking place. i am convinced major fraud has

taken place, it's the end of free and fair elections. republicans won't win again. they will be a permanent minority if we are not careful about the georgia senate races. we have no back stop if we lose the majority in the senate. >> tucker: that's the tragedy. a flawed party that refuses to protect its own voters. they are the only hope that this country doesn't descend into something unrecognizable. ned, we will talk to you again. appreciate it. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: there is a political realignment coming. the distance between what people want and what they are getting from their leaders is too vast. some democrats understand that. they are very nervous about it. next.

the distance between what peo e >> ♪ >> tucker: well, we have a lot of polling and expert analysis. a bad year for experts between covid-19 and the election results. one thing they predicted was a disaster for the gop in the house of representatives. republicans were going to get crushed. let's examine the gap between

their projections and what actually happened. it looks like republicans will gain between 5 to 10 seats in the house. they took control of 2 state legislatures. if you are a democrat that leads to tough questions. maybe identity politics and corporate economics is not a great combination because most people hate that. they hate that! they want the opposite. they want stability. they believe in families because they have them. and they don't actually think that the corporate bottom line is the most important thing in their family. possibly the democratic party needs to stop catering on the women's study majors and think about everybody else. andrew yang said this.

>> i had that experience on the trail. i would say i am running for president to a retail worker and waitress. they would say what party? they would say democrat and they would flinch like i said something negative. like i turned another color. there is something wrong when working class americans have that response to a major party that is supposed to be fighting for them. what has the democratic party been standing for in their minds. in their minds the democratic party took on this role of the coastal elites who are concerned about policing culture issues than improving their way of life that has been declining for years. >> tucker: exactly. you would think they know that. they probably take uber like everybody else. how many uber drivers listen to

fox radio. those are the people democrats say they represent but they are the people they ignored yelling about russia. democrats needs to figure this out right away. yesterday abigail an elected member of congress from virginia made that clear. >> today was a failure. it was not a success. [muffled audio]. >> tucker: whew! points out the truth. most of the democrats lost were

more moderate democrats meaning that sandy cortez will have more control of the party. she pointed out that most voters who don't live in gated communities or have security guards like nancy pelosi don't want to defund the police. will the party acknowledge this? this is a former cia officer and a long time democrat. what did it take significant losses in the louse for the democratic party to realize that defund the police puts your life in peril is not a winning campaign message? >> well, the party is unfortunately full of a lot of dumb people and donald trump figured that out. if you look at the coalition of people who voted for him in the past election, he has the working class coalition. people who earn less than $100,000 voted for him.

he got more black, brown and gay people voting for him than any other gop candidate since 1960. can the democratic party build back that coalition? the answer is hell no. 4 reasons. first in 2016 when trump won democrats had a soul searching conversation for why they loss. they came up with a number of reports and one read the lack of diversity in consults we hired contributed to our loss. >> tucker: [laughing]. >> it's the consultants. they took that answer and adopted it as their belief system. we have racial divisions and rhetoric. sprinkleed in marxism and america is terrible, bad and awful. that's what we got for 4 years. that's the second issue. what does the leadership of the

democratic party believe. alexandria ocasio-cortez said she is the future of the party. so me one damn democrat who said that is wrong? pelosi did not. alexandria ocasio-cortez and ilhan omar anti-jewish. the third issue, how would this impact the working class? we talked a lot on this program about immigration. when immigrants come across the border who can't speak english, they take jobs from those with high school educations and that depresses wages. the green new deal. they want to phase out the timber industry. that hurts farmers. what they believe also hurts the middle-class and the working

class. my god, the trade agreement. why over 50 years that joe biden has been in washington every trade agreement benefitted china and the folks on wall street, but the towns where folks are watching this program, they are dying. we get cheap crap at wal-mart and get injected with booze and opiates. they are getting money from the big tech people. that won't change. democrats won't change the hand that feeds them. that's the 4th reason why democrats won't change who they are. >> tucker: that's a really smart analysis. thank you. well, if the corporate hologram known as joe biden wins big tech

will have more than an ally. they will have a lackee. what does that mean for freedom of speech? we will tell you next. y. what does that mean for freedom of speech? we will tell you next.

we will tell you next.

>> tucker: we don't know what will happen in the presidential race. they are still counting votes. some people think they know. it's interesting to see who is excited about joe biden becoming president. if you browse social media u know that a lot of people aren't that happy on the left. the same people who pretended that donald trump caused all of their problems, coronavirus and allergies, seem full of angst tonight. one group is thrilled. big tech. look at the stock prices with massive surges. the power of the executive

branch could align with the tech monopolies. what will happen? the people who have more data on you know that you have about yourself can shut everything down. the night before election night. we opened our show with an argument for why donald trump's campaign mattered to descent people. many viewed that monologue on the internet and facebook censored it saying it contained partly false information. they did a fact check from a partisan organization and it was "mostly false for us to say elite in washington ignored the opioid epidemic."

in other words, politicians in washington eventually after a decade threw a big number at a problem. it did not solve it. if you claim otherwise, we will silence you. data guys with partisan agendas have power over what we say and what we think. we should not be surprised because it's not just here. everywhere. we have given fake experts with no knowledge of anything with agendas they hide control over climate change and the housing market and polling and election results. if you think these people will be content with censoring donald trump or banning the "new york post," think again. the more they screw up being the more control we give them over every part of our lives. in joe biden and kamala harris make it to the white house, they

will have more power than they ever had before. how should we feel about that? afraid. why was our monologue censored and what role did big tech play in getting joe biden elected? this author joins us tonight. thanks for coming on. we hope that joe biden won't become the president. if he does, you will have this alliance that will have consequences for the country. >> we certainly will. i have been covering the tech giants over the past 4 years. let me rephrase that. not what they have been doing over the last 4 years what political elite have allowed them to do for 4 years. all of the institutions meant to defend the public interest sat on their hands and watched as

the big tech oligarchs developed the most powerful censorship machine to sway elections. we are living with the consequences. everyone who says the role is to defend the american public interest from corporate interests did nothing. now we are looking at the possibility of a biden administration in bed with the tech giants. in the 6 months leading up to the election, google took searches to joe biden to zero. erasing it. they went all in for joe biden. twitter is doing it too. you can only imagine what joe biden is going to do to amplify this. he called for more censorship.

he would have the power of the federal government behind him. it's scary. >> tucker: there are a lot of people looking for voter fraud that affected the outcome of the election. i hope they keep looking because it's important. this seems like voter fraud and cheating and a distortion of our democracy that took place out in the open. why is what google did more significant than what corrupt ballots counters in philadelphia may be doing. it's more significant? >> more significant. where does an undecided voter go to find out information about joe biden or donald trump. they are met with a stream of propaganda from the mainstream media which is funded by big tech even while they suppress

their competitors and all of the conservative media. it's impossible to say undecided voters were not influenced by that. if there is voter fraud, they won't even let the president talk about it. the elites did nothing about the problem for the past 4 years. much as the opioid problem you talked about in that segment. >> tucker: i am ashamed i called any of these people liberal. this is authorityian. it's the opposite of liberals. it's scary. thank you. if power in washington changes hands what happens to our response to the coronavirus? joe biden promises the

coronavirus task force? dr. marc siegel joins us after the break.

>> tucker: i don't want to accuse anyone of this because it's so low. you want to assume the best motive of everyone. the coronavirus has been a politically useful tool for the democrat party. if biden wins, what do they do with the coronavirus? doctor marc siegel is the author of covid and the power of science. great to see you. >> tucker, everyone is wondering what a biden administration would do with the coronavirus. scientists agree that travel restrictions work. what was joe biden's response to president trump's travel restriction at the end of january? take a look.

>> donald trump's record of fear mongering to lead the way instead of science. >> the next question is what about lockdowns? joe biden talked about national lockdowns? he as a coronavirus task force and the main stay is obamacare architect who talks about the need for another lockdowns and we need subcommittees on testing and vaccines. they meet and discuss. they don't necessarily do anything. let's hear what dr. emanuel says. >> covid-19 will be here for the next 18 months or more. we can't return to normal until we find a vaccine or effective medications.

all of that economic pain we are trying to stop covid-19. the truth is we have no choice. >> actually we do have a choice. one thing we have a choice about is the vaccine. operation warp speed. it will be out in a month or two. why is he talking about 18 months and why not give credit to operation warp speed in? dr. emanuel assesses people to see if they is enough quality of life left to qualify for the vaccine. how scary is that when the elderly are dying of covid-19. they would put them under the line for the vaccine. and governor cuomo taking credit

and calling -- he will also advise joe biden. cuomo is calling for a national mask mandate. >> it's disrespectful of people not to wear masks. should there be sanctions? yes, yes. because it's a public health emergency. there should be a penalty. you could literally kill someone. >> how about that for fear mongering? i have a problem with the national mask mandate. there are parts of the country where there is not a lot of covid-19. you would be punishing people. look at personal responsibility to get people to apply. i believe in masks and social distancing and testing but mostly in public health. the idea of a mask mandate where a public health officials comes up and says you are not wearing that mask properly. come with me or pay a fine.

that's the opposite of what this country stands for. we don't need the politics of fear. we need personal freedom. >> tucker: amen. dr. marc siegel, great to see you. i will give you a hug. >> thank you. me too. >> tucker: identity politics means judging people on the basis of how they were worn and not what they do. it's grow tophic. -- grotesque. it's poison. back in 1999 california voters banned them from using racial preferences. this year they voted to reverse that ban. it would make it official. voters rejected proposition 16 by a 56% to 46% margin.

bob woodson led the campaign against this law. he joins us. what should we take away? >> well, we shall celebrate the fact that this law was rejected. it's based on the assumption when black america when it comes to performance on jobs and educations the standards have to be dumbed down to be fair to blacks. it operates on the false assumption with black americans we have to have the standards dumbed down. it assumes that any evidence of disparities are associated with racism. but positive disparities [inaudible]. black men are only 6% of the

population but 80% of the nfl and the nba. why is that individual initiative with education and jobs is racist. that's something we need to discuss. what it ignores in the black community there is a rich tradition of the best antidote to disrespect is performance. this was illustrated by joe lewis. he fought at a time when his opponents were racist and the fans were racists and so were the judges. joe lewis said in the face of this opposition, not to sucker out. never trust your fate to a decision. that's a rich tradition in the black community of doing what joe lewis did. for instance, tucker, in 1899 to 1954, there were 5 black high schools, dunn bar in washington,

d.c. and douglas in baltimore and washington and auburn and brooklyn and new orleans. these schools were crumbling buildings, crowded class rooms. used textbooks. half of the budgets of the private schools and as a consequence, they out-perform. every one of those black high schools, they had a higher score than all of the white schools in those cities. the same was true in 1943 when there were no black naval offic officers in the navy. and eleanor roosevelt forced the navy to train them. the navy selected 16 black men

with college educations. they put them through 8 weeks of traini training. it was 16 weeks for white trainees. when these men found out they covered the windows and scored in the 90%. this is the resilence in black america that gets ignored today. >> tucker: if favor of dehumanizing policies like the ones you fought again. quickly, do you see the defeat of this law as a sign of hope going forward? >> absolutely. the fact is that it's a 69 of hope. -- a sign of hope. one of the most liberal states around the country. they rejected this, that means that maybe white people are getting race fatigue and are standing up. but, tucker, i think i am going

to try to profit off of this too. i will engage in certified racism exorcist. >> tucker: [laughing]. a lot of people need it. >> come to me. it will be cheaper than the other training you are getting. maybe we can begin to change things. we will see, tucker. >> tucker: do your good work. i appreciate it. great to see you tonight. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: well, it was one of the great mysteries in the presidential season. what happened to joe biden? where was he? he was hiding. we may have the answer next.

>> tucker: joe biden picked a

pretty weird time to take the year off, an election year. he didn't hold a single press conference. that's kind of impressive in a perverse way. it's been 100 years since someone won the presidency from the front porch. not that biden has won, we are hoping he doesn't, but if he does, it will be the first since warren g. harding. and he didn't have corporations working on his behalf. why did he go with that strate strategy? barbecue bow, a very smart piece, one of many he is written. if we are happy to have a montagnais. him on tonight. >> wasn't a strategy propagated by joe biden, he is a cipher or empty ladder into which has been injected the dangerous agenda of wokeness and identity politics, the far left wing of the

democratic party. he has no real ideas of his own, he merely excretes what he is demanded to excrete on cue. i think everybody looking at this election has to have understood that it was one of the things that was so odd about it was that the president would be dashing around the country, giving press conferences, holding interviews -- he talked to anyone. in the last several weeks of the election, he was -- you know, holding two or three or four rallies a day all across the country. detroit the very end of his campaign, he covered 3,000 miles in five different states when joe biden went 30 miles from his house to talk to 12 or 15 people in pennsylvania.

it was an incredible contrast. why would that be? because joe biden understood that the fix was in. the fix was in, he could see it in the posters, the wild exaggeration of joe biden's numbers, all down the campaign. he was ahead by ten points, by 15 points -- it's going to be a blowout. not only in the presidential race, but also in the congressional race. this clearly turned out to be not the case. then of course, it was big media. the media was 100% behind biden and against the bad orange man. then it was the big interest, not only big media, big money. wall street -- it was big china, definitely behind joe biden. finally, you had the deep state apparatchiks. i know people don't like that phrase, deep state, but these

are the people who the army -- the army of people who are on the ground -- we have video evidence of it. it would instruct people and posterior workers to hand stamp the ballots with the previous time so that they could be counted. how is it possible -- we have this from the greatest apologist nate silver that 23,000 ballots showed up in philadelphia, all bearing the name of joe biden. that is an impossibility, unless it was on purpose. joe biden didn't really campaign, he merely offered himself up for acclamation by the party of woke identity politics. >> tucker: probably not 15 people in this whole country who know what joe biden really believes and want to be led by him. he was irrelevant to this process. one of the rare people who

speaks as crisply as he writes, it's a pleasure to have you on, thank you. our time is done this week, we will see you monday. we are back 8:00 p.m., the sworn enemy of pomposity, smugness and groupthink. >> sean: welcome to "hannity." a breaking from the u.s. supreme court, justice alito has now issued an order requiring that ballots received after 8:00 p.m. on election day in pennsylvania be segregated, secured, and if counted, counted separately from all other ballots. that would be what the law actually says. a lot more on this new development. jay sekulow will be joining us in a minute. first, in coming weeks this president -- well, do what he has always done. it is going to fight, make sure every legal ballot is counted
