but with walmart's low prices, you still know how to do it up. and keep costs down. let's end the year enjoying more. ♪ you are all i need baby baby to get by ♪ december 21st, 2020 but as ♪ >> tucker: good evening, and welcome to a special edition of tucker carlson tonight. if you are a sane person, it's easy to dismiss woke activism with the kind of childish sideshow that plays out mostly on college campuses and public radio show. at the cringing self-hatred, the hair on fire hysteria, the total obliviousness to historical reality. if the whole thing is like an adolescent rage fit that goes on forever. honestly, it's kind of hilarious. at the university of wisconsin last month, child activist convincedac administrators to me a boulder on campus because they

claimed they represented bigotr. it was a racist rock. that actually happens along with countless things like it. our grandchildren are l going to read about this moment, and they are going to laugh in disbelief. that's been our assumption, anyway. what if the current lunacy turns out to be more than a passing phase? what if woke race obsession is not a fad, but instead an incurable brain virus that is affectedru our country's entire leadership class?? if that's the case, we are in trouble. our grandchildren will laugh, a lot of americans won't have grandchildren. over the weekend, msnbc assembled a panel of the usual highly credentialed geniuses to plan job bidens presidential candidate. notice the criteria they are usingg tooth staff your federal government. thepeak i know this isn't first time where there hasn't been an asian-american with a secretaryse set down my title but there have been cabinet lev. where do you stand on the

representation issue when it comes to the biden cabinet? because we need to make sure that this is a cabinet, like every single administration for the past 20 years, has a secretary in the cabin that is asian-american. >> it makes sense that attorney general would be a black person who models the value as we move past this dependency, this reliance on this car several state. >> latinos want another factor -- we need to see gender. if there is diversity within our diversity, and for us, it's going to be very important in the hispanic community, latina and the cabinet. it's be one in my tribe, no my tribe, no mine. mine, and mine. this is what late stage identity politics looks like once you strip away all of the euphemis euphemisms. notice there was no mention

whatsoever of confidence, expertise, or any other quality that might actually help our country. without the relevant background to run at the energy department? who cares, you are the wrong color, no dice. when it comes to hiring cabinet secretaries, outdated ideas about the common good no longer play a role. this is the ugliest kind of race politics. it dividing up the spoils along color lines. if you wantif the job, you'd better look like me. how did it country impressive as ours get to a place this low? as with all journeys, the answer is slowly, and then all at once. we definitely arrived. to our leaders, identity is all that matters, that's official. watch america's. highest ranking guilty white guy explain how he's hiring the people who run federal agencies. >> today, the announcement we will make, the six african-american -- six african-american members per capita.

after today or cabinet will have two precedent breaking appointments, but 12. the first native american cabinet secretary. already, there are more people of color in our cabinet than any cabin in every period of more than ever. >> and again, joe biden isn't even bothering to try to convince you that he is choosing the most competent people for key jobs. instead, he's telling you what they look like. theiroo appearance is what matters. it's all that matters. it turns out yourr mother was wrong, you can judge a book by its cover. in fact, you are now required to. what are the consequences of this kind of thinking? over time, identity politics will destroy our country, no nation can remain unified for long if people are encouraged to think of themselves as members of competing ethnic groups first, andnd edison's seconds. if countries need a reason to

hang together. that unity doesn't happen by accident. at the fixation race, guarantees disunity, permanent disunity. it's terrifying if you think about it. it actually could be worse than that. t what if the woke brain virus began to infect the last remaining meritocracy in this country, the bedrock guarantee of our safety and our freedom? the u.s. military. if that happens, it would be a legitimate disaster. at the military we've all been told since childhood, doesn't care what you look like. if they don't care what your parents dead orth where you are from, your identity is relevant to the armed services. at the u.s. military cares about your performance. that's it. that's why the u.s. military is impressive, that's why they've been able to keep us from being invaded. they only care about what matters, and what matters is protecting the united states. not anymore. last week, the acting secretary

of defense, mama called chris miller, announced that the u.s. military will be changing its standards from top to bottom. not to create more effective fighting force to save your children from china or other foreign domination, no. in order to conform to policies formulated by the pentagon's diversity and inclusion board. you can imagine what those policies are. strict affirmative action, hiring, and promoting by appearance, the elimination of objective standards. according to secretary miller, who should be ashamed of himself. social engineering is a moral imperative in the armed forces. heat did not ask lane why this s a moral imperative. not long ago, a psychologist called to brian warner gave us a glimpse into the thinking behind decrease like this. warner, whose job it is keep in mind to j keep american free and safe side spends his time pondering the death of a man called george floyd to g

minneapolis. he has decided that something called micro-aggressions are to blame. watch. >> they may not seem like a big deal to some, but as we see what happened to george floyd, those microaggressions of the unconscious bodies to more significant and severe impacts. >> tucker: like secretary miller, ryan warner should be ashamed of himself. if neither one is, of course. both men are nearly symptoms of a larger long brewing problem thatbr unfortunately, the rest f us have ignored for a really long time. while they are forced for the remarkable heroism, much more military's leadership was moving in another direction. if they have now come to resemble the anthropology department at wesleyan. three years ago on september 2017, general called jay jason vieira went on this rant after a hate crime took

place atai the air force academ. watch. >> you may have heard that some people down in the prep school wrote some racial slurs on some message boards. if you haven't heard that, i wanted you to hear it for me. if you are outraged by those words, you are in the right place. that kind of behavior has no place at the prep school, it has no place that you saw thought, and it has no place in the united states air force. if you can't treat someone from another race or a different colored skin with dignity and respect, then you need to get out. >> tucker: settled down tough cry. the hate crime was a hoax, like so many hate crimes that are reported in the media. it never happened. u.s. military by the way has a long, very long history of treating everyone with respect andit dignity, because it was a meritocracy. a meritocracy is designed to treat people with respect and

dignity. it d treats them on the basis of how they behave. not on the basis of how they look. this man, the general you just sawju apparently has forgotten that. he's mouthing the words written by the hard left, no one has stopped him or any like him. the brain virus spread throughout the u.s. military. the summer, the u.s. army's so called operation inclusion instructed soldiers that the phrase make america great in again was socially acceptable covert white as. a presidential campaign slogan was white supremacy, according to the army. no one did anything about that. now, according to the army's equity and inclusion agency, and yes, they have one. if the phrases all lives matte, american exceptionalism, and the celebration of columbus day are racist. this is from the army, the people who should be protecting you. the head of theos defense agency recently encouraged his employees to read the lunatic

trackna white fragility by robin d'angelo. a book that is inherently bigoted, and also stupid. again, this is the military supposed to be protecting you. instead, theybe are weeding, greeting white fragility. chiefth master's of the air fore claimedd on twitter that his greatest fear was that one of his airmen might be killed by a racist cop. notp killed by the chinese military, but by american raci racism. where does this end? can you protect a nation with the military like this? this is a retired marine, we are happy to have them on tonight. thank you so much for joining us. i just want to be clear, i'm speaking about the leadership. if the officer class, the highr you go the more prevalent it is, of the u.s u.s. military not yor average enlisted person. at the whole part of the

military, i think you thought when he joined the marine corps, it's a meritocracy, they don't care what you look like. where did it change up what are the consequences question mexico i don't know i got out a few years ago, thankfully i'm not sure. i know a lot of these generals and colonels, and i don't think it's their words that they are regurgitating. i think they are saying this out of fear from the same cancel culture we all live under. at this big thumb that comes down and says, you must accept me or you are evil and i will destroy you from the inside out. that's what a lot of people, a lot of our leaders are focused on. you see politics every day, i hope that our military would somehow be exempt from it. it's as if they're trying to tear down the last silo of opportunity in this country that is based solely on personal performance, not your feelings or identity. let me tell you, the military it moves slow and change is slow. asl general's career is built or 30 or 40 years. the reason why a point that ou, we probably don't have enough african-american generals and leaders of service, but think about 40 years ago, the

opportunity probably wasn't there for them like it is today. we've changed a lot in 40 years. as you hold your horses and let the cream rise to the top, we will get the best update. i guarantee you, pretty much everybody will be represented. >> tucker: can i just say, as an american who does not serve in the military, but expects to be protected by the military as we all do, i have a right night to care what color my generals are. why is that relevant? i'm serious. it doesn't matter to me, it shouldn'tme matter to me, don'ti have a right to say, stop paying attention to irrelevant things like appearance, and start paying attention to protecting thee country? >> you're absolutely right. i don't think anyone worried they had any identity issues when they got ready to take over and probably the most successful war in our life, probably the only successful war in the gulf war. that's the problem.

were celebrating a not so brooding we have a female leading a branch of service, that's great. as it's not just because she's a female. one of the worst thing obama did, in the 11th hour, he put all female combat role restrictions out the door. if that was most destructive thing our military, especially female service members, because it came without a plan. it came without any type of structure are phasing into because it wasas done on a partisan, political reasons. not to make her militarypo bett. that's not to say female shouldn't serve in combat roles, but we do anything we do with strategy and with purpose that makes us better. ultimately, more deadly. these 15 recommendations, they are so15 focused on the argument that wee should look at who someone is in categories, and that's not what our military does. it's certainly notdo how you win wars. >> we shouldn't allow these nonserious destroyers to

take control over most important institution. i appreciate you coming on tonight.u thank you. >> tucker: institution after institution destroyed. at this revolution began in academia at the schools, higher education mostly. and now moving downward into high schools. it's been particularly virulent and privateen schools. the more prestigious, the worse. at the latest example comes from new york city, the dalton school. adults are moren than 100 facuy members have released in eight-page antiracism manifesto with proposals so lunatic that it's hard to believe they are real. for example, they want the school to pay student debt for black faculty, reroute donations to the public school, eliminate all advanced placement courses if any race does worse than any other and so on and so on. scott johnson broke the story,

he's the author of the book campus land, great book. he joins us tonight. thanks so much for coming on. give us an overview of this conflagration at the dalton school in new york? because the faculty came up with this manifesto, if you will, in august. i think the school has tried to keep it under wraps since then. i know some parents have seen it and now everyone has seen it. i would urge everybody not to take my word or your word for any of this. i know the board have an emergency meeting after my blog, the naked dollar, printed out this entire manifesto. if they are writing it off as a right wing hit job. don't take my word for it, go on my website or anywhere else, go read the whole thing. it's eight pagesle long. it's as if it was written by a freshman sociology major at

berkeley. there is mandatory diversity plot lines, they want to hire 12 diversity officers -- bear in mind this is a reasonably small k-12 school. 12 full-time diversity officers, i'm sort of mystified what they would do all day. the answer to fact, they are going to have to find nuanced examples of racism to justify their jobs. put in context by the way, my alma mater has 150 full-time diversity officers. they want number ap classes if black students have not fully caught up with white students in terms of their qualifications for those classes. interestingly, i'm told some of the parents who had no problem with a lot of this other woke stuff, when it got to that one said, i will have to pull my kid if it comes to k that. they want required antiracism statements from everybody at the school, which is eerily

reminiscent of the struggle sessions during the cultural revolution with the red guard where he had to confess to his crimes. honestly, what's so sad about thisis is that while it furnishs the woke credentials of the white hierarchy in a place like dalton, mind you, this is not just about dalton. this is across institutional america. it hurts the very people it's trying to help by creating -- by annoying them with permanent victim status. it codifies races into dividing principle. we are not moving to a post post-racial society. martin luther king is on the outs with this crowd because he advocated a color-blind society, and that's not at all what this crowd wants anymore. >> tucker: it's also a destroying the rationale for the school. at the schools are incredibly expensive. people send their kids there because they think they will be improved, and some selective

college. you have to wonder if they're not sewing there'sin own seeds f elimination. >> none of the parents will speak publicly. of those who do have a problem are terrified to say anything because of yale, because of harvard. a school is the sum of its teachers more than anything else. this is reflective of the sort of people places like dalton are hiring as teachers. if they are full on woke, and again, don't believe me, go read the statement. i hope you don't think this is a product of rational minds. >> tucker: i hope our viewers will, because it's really stunning. it's rippling with race hostility and really poison. i appreciate you coming on, thank you. joe biden spent his entire life in washington, d.c. he knows well enough not to let a crisis go to waste.hi

>> i am a hard coal miner. scranton, pennsylvania, okay, that's where i was born and raised. it's nice to be back in coal country. >> tucker: that was joe biden in 2008 describing his many years underground as a coal miner in the hills of northeastern pennsylvania. if that's been 12 years he managed to survive black young. he also changed his perspective on energy. >> today i'm pleased to announce the team that would lead my a administrations ambitious plan to address climate change. we are in a crisis. just like we need to be unified nation in response to covid-19, we need a unified national response to climate change. from this crisis, from these crises, i should say, we need to seize an opportunity to build the back and build back better than we weree before.

>> tucker: from this crisis, we must seize the opportunity. marc morano publishes climate depot, we are happy to have him on tonight. so much for joining us. if m you look at the polling on this subject, there a lot of crises unfolding in the united states right now. climate change is not one that rates very high on mostan peopls lists of pressing concerns. at the biden people believe it's the central crisis. what do they plan to do to respond to it? if you could sum it up for us. >> the harris ceo of paris polling lamented that climate went frome a top-tier issue in his bowll to second to last of all issues. they are freaked out that no one is talking, and no one cares about climate among the public. what they're trying to do, and you've saw but i didn't allude to it there with bill to back better. if they're trying to essentially use the covid lockdown model for the climate emergency model. are there going to go from covid lockdown to climate lockdown.

if you look at it, senator merkel came out today and is urging a president joe biden to declare a national climate emergency, which would give him emergency powers that he can bypass democracy much the same way a lot of the blue state governors have done with the covid lockdown spirit of the one i'm confused on the most basic level. we've had warming and cooling. maand the warming periods after. if you accepted barry accepted barry incc a warming period, and i'm willing to believe that, why are we certain it's human cause. >> every incentive was to say, not only do we have carbon dioxide under control, they get to come up with the scare of co2, and they get to come up with the solution as well. if you look at the data, the

u.n. did to her meant most of the warming since 1950s human. if that's determined by a show of hands. it's not a scientific paper, it's based on models and regulation, expert judgment, which we've seen in covid, how much expert judgment can matter. sometimes it can be wildly off. you could talk to geologist to study the history of the earth, they willl tell you where in the 10% coldest period of the earth and geologically speaking. 90% of the earth's history didn't have ice on either pole. most of the scare comes in predictions of the future, that's what the scare mongers like to focus on. >> tucker: doth you think the average person knows that we've had innumerable, countless warming periods over the eons, and they've always been naturally occurring. i've never heard anybody say that, and i've never heard anybody at present actual proof that these are different from those, ever. i've never heard anybody do that, why? >>t>> there isn't. you go back to the roman warming period, you go the mid-evil

warming period, the temperature is the same or slightly declined on those periods depending on the studies you want to do. if theyd needed an emergency. here's the bottom line, for decades u.n. climate activists and campaigners have toiled for attention and government action. if they failed to when obama was president to get cap and trade. they field multiple times. what happened,at covid open ther eyes. they went from jealousy to learning from it, now they are all in on the covid model. i went w to u.n. conferences for two decades. they talk about plans for sessions to fight global warming. now, what is a lockdown but a plant recession by the government. the climate activists are all in and this covid model. climate lockdown coming from covid lockdown, and that's exactly what joe biden is being advised to do. >> tucker: i wish i could dismiss what you just said is a conspiracy theory. given everything i've seen, i can't. mark, thank you.

this will not be the last story we do on this. if you are handing out coronavirus vaccines, you would probably give the first batch to the people most at risk of dying fromat coronavirus. instead, some of the first shots are going to people like sandy cortez, whoo is 31 years old and at no risk at all for dying. why is that? we will tell you. plus, the u.k. has discovered what they are calling the mutated form of a virus. we are standing by with the latest on that. our lives special continues, right after this. ♪ (announcer) need to lose weight?

>> i took a trip to the north pole. i went there and i vaccinated santa claus myself. i measured his level of immunity, and he is good to go. he can come down the chimney, he can lead the present, he can leave and you have nothing to worry about. >> tucker: not of course was tony fauci announcing his return from the north pole too much adulation on cnn.

of course, it's usually santa claus who brings a gift. at this year, santa is the one who needed a special delivery. giving his age and physical condition, sent as an obvious candidate for early access to the coronavirus vaccine. you would think that old and sick would always be first in line for life-saving medical treatments, but they're not. thanks to political pressure lawyers and unionized teachers and members of the news media have been classified as essential workers by the cdc. they will have access to the vaccine, and in some cases it before some of those who need it most. politicians can always get it whenever they want because they leave the rules. sandy cortez has already received her shot. cortez is 31 years old, she is at essentially zero risk from dying fromgo this virus. she got a dose anyway, and she did it on instagram. for sandy cortez, pandemic means moreti opportunities to take pictures of herself. there's something disgusting

about this. >> for months, the cdc's been us that the elderly are the most vulnerable. and now they are recommending that a hundred million essential workers, which means healthy people working at everything from liquor stores to telephone companies, they can get the vaccine before our grandparents can. that members of congress like me, we can get the vaccine before at-risk seniors can. i plan to get the vaccine, but will now stand in solidarity with our seniors by not doing so until they can. i urge my colleagues in congress who are under the age of 65 and healthy to join me. >> tucker: amen. good for her. if only there were more in congress that were that principled. if only the federal government thought is clearly. >> tucker: a new strain of the coronavirus has been discovered in the u.k., much of the rest of

europe and the world is rushing to cut off travel to and from great britain. fox news medical contributor dr. marc siegel has been tracking developments in the story, which is big. he joins us tonight. a doctor, what exactly is going on? >> well, took her. u.k. and london are in a state of panic tonight. if you look at the streets of london, they are empty. they are empty in advance and a tear for lockdown. you have to stay at home, you can't go anywhere, you can't travel. int advance of that, you know what happened? the train stations were loaded over the weekend as people escaped, knowing this was happening, cluttering together in panic, probably spreading covid-19.. that's the whole story of the pandemic. panic and fear overrunning science. humans i've been talking about science, but fear is even more powerful than science. what is the science here? you know what? we're talking about a virus. viruses change all thet time.

viruses do something called mutate. as soon as i mentioned the word, half the audience -- mutate, sounds like something out of a science-fiction movie. then they use the term shape shifter. shape shifter, i remember that. that was my favorite star checked episode thes real science, these changs that occur to the virus are almost always inconsequential. if they don't mean anything, they don't add up to anything, which is why scientists don't tell us about them. the one time we talk about it is if the change is occurring during a pandemic, which makes the virus a little bit more transmissible, easier to catch. that may be happening in great britain, but i'll tell you but they haven't done, they haven't proven that in the laboratory yet, and they haven't proven exactly how transmissible it is. next question, does it make it more deadly, that's what everyone wants to know. the vast majority of the time, it does not make it more deadly, it makes it mildly. it will interfere with the

function of the vaccine? almost definitely not. that takesat years. it got a change in virus that's probably making it mild and not more deadly, doesn't interfere with the vaccine, and yet panic is ensuing. you know what people do when they panic? if they take fewer precautions and t they spread more virus. if i have a message tonight, to everybody in the u.k., why don't we let the science lead. tucker and i have been saying, follow the science from the beginning. everyone has stolen that term from us, but they are not following the science. watch the scientists, and please, the panic is not helping.he it's making the situation much worse. by the way, tucker, if someone goes up to the north pole to check on that vaccine, they don't need too put it in the freezer, do they tucker? >> tucker: no they don't. just a bottom line in one sentence from what we know tonight, these mutations have not made the virus being reported in the u.k. more dangerous to people, possibly just more transmissible, is that

right? >> absolutely, tucker. a vast majority of the time not more dangerous at all and covered by the vaccine. it disappears is unwarranted, tucker. to be what i appreciate your summation of aat story that's getting a lot of coverage. thank you. there are elections in georgia, two runoffs for the united states senate. they will determine whether the democrats have full one-party control over the united states. if they get it, what will happen? join us for a live special, ne next. ♪

>> tucker: after years of pretending too be moderate, the leaders of the democratic party have pulled off the mask. they are telling us exactly what they will do if they take power. they'll confiscate your weapons, eliminate the filibuster. they will completely change our economy, they will be in your vehicle by passing the green new deal. they plan to pack the supreme court and the independent judiciary and to create a permanent majority in the senate by adding states, changing the american flag,

making puerto rico and washington, d.c., states. they plan to totally transform the country. but the only thing between those plans and then start to senate runoff races in georgia. those races january 5th will control which party controls the u.s. government. candace owens has been watching thisef and thinking about the implications, she's the author of blackout. you are hearing all kinds of conservative saying it doesn't really matter. it doesn't matter, and if so, why? >> it absolutely does matter. i think every single person in america understands that the senate runoff raceun are critic. that's the only word we can use to describe them. they are critical. at the left is after. they have been transparent, they wish to radically transform this country. now also stating what hasn't been so obvious, that is that a lot of georgia voters notice and don't care. the reason this is important,

they feel as if they've been abandoned by the g.o.p. establishment. they went out and did what they were supposed to do on november 3rd, and they got nothing for it. they had a bunch of people that are saying it doesn't matter that perhaps your votes -- mayb it wasn't election integrity on november 3rd. we know a lot of weird suspect things happen in fulton county. there is an potentially that the g.o.p. observers were kicked out of the room we've gotten no real concrete answers to that right now the republicans are in power in that state so it's not an either or. your hearing so many people talking to them like their children. you need to get out and vote or it's goingu to be on your shoulders that we lose this country. that is not a fair argument. it should be both. i won every single person in georgia that is a republican, forget republicans, that loves this country to go out and vote because it's that important. i also want to say that i hear you, i understand you and you are correct. aa lot of shenanigans happened n november 3rd. it should be incumbent for people in office to make sure

you're both actually mean something so you show up again in the runoff elections. >> tucker: i completely agree. so the question whether or not the republicans deserve your support, course they don't. i wouldn't cross the street to keep the party operating. do the rest of us deserve to be governed by the lunatics in the democratic party,, no we don't. we don't deserve that. it's too good of a country. that seems like a pretty simple message. why is that not getting through? >> a lot of it has been because they're so much condescension. we have to transfer that. here's the truth, the people that show up on november 3rd, and i think a lot of people in the establishment don't realize this,hm this is a different pary now. this isn't going to go away if we ignore these allegations. wees have to address them, we nd concrete information, and we need to rally this country -- georgia first, and this country around making sure that we still recognize this country for years from now.ar at that we still recognize country two years from now. like you said at the beginning

of this segment, the left wishes to radically transform everything that america is. >> tucker: they are not going to lose another election. they care about the structures. they want to control the structures, the military, the schools. if they think big, we think small. we are done, they think long-term. they are going to change the rules of the game. if they went mad, do you think any republican or nondemocrat will ever behe elected president in our lifetime? >> i don't. that's why it's so important, that's why it's critical for georgia to show up and vote, it's critical for republicans that have power to shut up and fight. this might be the last opportunity that we have as conservatives to fight before this becomes a banana republic, that's what it's starting to feel like. you know, when you have the mainstream media censoring information. we have fact-checkers on facebook not allowingti conversations to take place. i don't know that i feel like i live in america anymore. i asked myself, are we in a free country anymore tucker?
