but when he flexes that bicep, suddenly it's 3 inches off the end of your nose and you could be breathing in a lot of toxic masculinity. thatat will do it for us. have a great new year. tucker back live in 2021. gives me great pleasure to say ladies and gentlemen, miss tammy bruce. have a great show. >> tammy: happy new year to yours, i appreciate it. i'm tammy bruce info sean. tonight, 2020 is almost in the books and cnn's histrionic cnn correspondent mark acosta has a new year's resolution to the surprise of no one. vowing to take it easy on joe biden. during an interview with "the atlantic," he compared the trump white house to a nonstop national emergency that required

a defiant response. acosta continued, "being at the white house is not an experience that would merit hazard pay, perhaps it's going to be approached differently." acosta will be rolling out the red carpet for joe biden. no rush or a hoax, impeachment hysteria, combative moments like this. watch. >> when the president is yelling towards the press, it's not helpful at times. >> let me ask you a question. jim, do you believe -- >> they aren't always close to being pushed. i always think -- > jim, i appreciate your speech. >> i think we saw the president's true colors today and i'm not sure they are red, white, and blue. >> tammy: acosta is one small part of a biased mainstream media mob. no one trusts them and for good reason but what we witnessed

over the last four years has been an absolute disgrace. here are just a few examples. take a look. >> is this president trying to impersonate hugo chavez, rest up there is a background to it. he is not sound mind. clinically, you look at it and say, is there something wrong there? >> he needs to be medicated and hospitalized. >> we can say that his words have absolutely emboldened white supremacists. he's clearly trying to ignite a civil war in this country. >> this is somebody in deep psychological distress right now. >> i'm thinking fidel castro, julius caesar, that was not an american president giving an acceptance speech. >> tammy: tonight as we speak,

the same people you just saw are now switchingg gears. instead of attacking and investigating and probing come of the media is now attempting to shield joe biden from any and all negative attention. for example, you won't likely hear any coverage of biden's constant confusion like yesterday when joe called his running mate kamala harris the "president-elect." >> clearly and unambiguously urge to take the vaccine once it's available. i took it to instill public confidence in the vaccine. president-elect harris took hers today for the same reason. >> tammy: while joe is measuring the drapes for his provincial elect kamala harris, the fight for presidential integrity, asking thes. supreme court, absentee votes that did not follow the states own rules

and that there are enough examples to make trump the winner of the badger state. on capitol hill, missouri senator josh hawley plans to object to the electoral college results, citing major irregularities in multiple states.mu according to gallup, president trump has been pinned as the country's most admired man and as i point out in my article in "the washington times," he's not just mired but appreciated. whatever happens, donald trump will retain power and popularity unmatched by anyone in this country. joining this with reaction, fox news contributor joe concha and columnist miranda devine. thank you for joining us tonig tonight. >> thanks, tammy. happy new year. >> tammy: joe, let's start with you. obvious there isth no effort to even hide the bias. they seem to be thrilled to be

able to admit they are going to give joe biden a pass to handle the situation differently. do you think that'll actually unfold properly? do you think they'll get frustrated with being treated like putin? >> look, tammy, the good news is if you yearn to an objective press, jim acosta has suddenlyin become invisible and irrelevant because he goes from being confrontational to coddling and that doesn't get you book deals. jim acosta got a g book deal in terms of the number of people who were interestedf in that. for jim acosta, there are no more interviews after white house press conferences where he can play the victim in the bottom line is i think now at this point if you are not going to challenge those in power, go work for the party that you supported. maybe go work for the dnc, go work for the biden and administration as a

speechwriter. in acosta's case and some others in the white house press corps, they gave speeches instead of asking questions and taking policy positions imprisoning themselves as journalists when theys are actively activists. >> very good point. who knows. maybe that's exactly where he ends up. miranda, at the same time, we know donald trump regardless of what happens in a few days in january is not going anywhere. he will remain i would argue the most powerful man in the country. so are we going to see the media just continue on but may be by ignoring the biden demonstration completely and just continuing on with their hostile coverage of donald trump? >> hi, tammy. definitely because they are addicted to their crack cocaine donald trump hatred. and so in fact unfortunately tho people who tune into them. and i think they are going to have a terrible time when he goes. what will they do?

they are already setting up this alibi you heard jim acosta say it. when joe biden comes in, there is going to be no reason to be hostile to him. i don't understand why. i don't think anyone really mind so much about their vitriol and unprofessional behavior thee lat four years if they kept it up for the next four years with joe biden. you know, you can be tough, you can be ruthless and uncompromising and a hold those in power for account. you can't have special rules for donald trump and different rules for joe biden. we saw throughout the campaign, the media gave joe biden a complete free pass. all foibles and problems and they are about to do it when he is going to be president. and that's actually dangerous for the country. >> it is. that's an excellent point and let's follow through on that. the american people have watched what happened over the last four

years. we normally wouldwo rely on the mediaa to be able to keep us informed about facts of the matter. and yet if you are not going to be questioning what the president of the united states is doing, does not lead to an even further element truancy village menisci forthe governmen american people trust anything the media tells them at this point when you have this admission that they have no intention of being curious about what joe biden is doing? >> tammy, lets ask the american people. gallup did just a month ago and they found that 86%, an astonishing number, 86% of the american people thinks that the media is biased. 84% think that the media shares the blame for divide in the country for those two numbers are devastating. as they try to go back and play nice with the president, it gets even worse because theyec are nt holding the countable to power

and that's what the fourth estate exist for. to hold those in positions of power accountable for their actions, asking the tough questions. joe biden, do you plan on expanding the supreme court, do you plan onte expanding the senate, do you plan on limiting the electoral college? fundamental changes to the country and you don't hear these questions being asked of joe biden because he has a predetermined list of reporters that he calls on that his staffers picked beforehand and he's not going to be able to get away with that forever because the onehe thing that we have gog for are those who want answers are that reporters, many of them, not all certainly, have tremendous egos that need the spotlight, they earn for it. you get to it by acting that way. >> tammy: they got used to it. miranda, there are more outlets, more ways for people to blame themselves. you can become an influencer in social media and we are now

looking at the beyond her giving a pass to joe biden and saying nothing and lying by omission. we are dealing with direct censorship of ideas and thoughts and supporters of president trump across social media. we clearly should be concerned if donald trump himself will be able to access and be heard if he does continue as i hope you would to continue to influence the direction of the country. do you see that as being a major problem for someone like donald trump or anyone who is outside of the swamp who wants to have a voice? >> tammy, it already is. i have no doubt that twitter will deactivate donald trump account on noon of january 20. i would not put that past them. twitter, already on facebook, social media exerted, flexed their muscles and exerted their powerspo during the election campaign and that was seen most

obviously in theirr censorship f the hunter biden story, the locking of "the new york post" twitter account. >> we've come to rely on it, right? it's almost like the bait and switch. come get involved in this, have the town hall, have these conversations and suddenly when the national conversation relies on the outlet, suddenly it's going to crush you. this is obviously a concern for all of us who care about the free nature of this country. i don't know how many will put up with it but then again we'll see when it comes to section 230 and whether or not these entities will be held to account. but even that, miranda, would change the format if you'll be able to be sued for what is said or what you do, don't you think they would crack down even more? >> i'm not sure that is the solution. you have a situation just like you did so with the railroads or

the oil companies in previous eras. you know, you have these gigantic monopoly leaves that werere allowed to play the pac-n strategy and swallow up every other social media rival and now they have so much power over the communications, the way we communicate with each other and we saw also they intervened in n the election. >> >> tammy: exactly. miranda and joe, thank you. a lot of work coming up for the american people to say the least.tu let's turn to the ongoing crisis in america's major cities as police budgets are slashed, bail eliminated, felons granted early release from prison. violent crime has surprisingl nt surprisingly exploded. murders are up by 41%. in chicago, murders up by 54%. minneapolis, murders are up by 72%. in milwaukee, it's even worse. shocking 94% increase in murder.

in nearly every major city, violent crime is on the rise in this great country of ours. that's not stopping the defund movements. a new york congressman elect just tweeted in response to the doj closing a probe into the tamir rice case without charging any officers, "a system this cruel and inhumane cannot be reformed. defund the police, defund the system that is terrorizing our community." meanwhile, former ambassador nikki haley blasting the let's say, "they demand freedom but want to control and silence anybody who disagrees with them for demand equality but want to build a new society based on discrimination. they are set on using the full force of government to achieve theirf vision. now customs and border patrol chief mark morgan is worried that if biden gets his way, this kind of work and sanity will extend to the border, creating

lawlessness and mass illegal immigration. joining us now with more is the author of "black out," candace owens along with sara carter. welcome aboard, thank you for being with me tonight. >> thank you. >> tammy: we are heading into a new year and that is usually a chance where we believe we can set things straight and have a fresh point of view and approach. clearly the left has an intention, sarah, they've got a mission. people think they won't apply it, but they do. you've got to believe the left, they will do what they say they want to do the matter how crazy it sounds. we've got this dynamic here, especiallyci with the dangers we've seen, the destructions of the defund the police movement. it's almost like horses running into a fire. how do you see this playing out in the first few months of next year? >> i'm so grateful for the fact that ambassador nikki haley did tweet that out today and she is

sending a warning shot across the bow of what's happening to our country and i believe, tammy, that all of this happened while you were asleep. for decades we've seen these kind of policies embedie themselves in our university. we've seen the move throughout our political channels. we've seen the left, not just democrats -- not talking about liberals, i'm talking about extraordinary communist-socialist values. we are seeing in the city of chicago,ch over 753 people killd in violent crimes in chicago this year, over 440 in new york city? people paying the price of this are thee people in these communities, the people who need the police the most. ambassador haley is 100% right. these are hypocrites, liars, they are lying to the american people and the people in these communities need the police, they need law and order, they need people with common sense and certainly we are not seeing

that. >> it's interesting. that, candace, nikki haley's tweets would make news because we don't hear many in the republican party being blunt about the destruction of this attitude and asde sarah noted, this is the inner city, these are urban areas. poll after poll, african-americans, black americans saying we need the police, those are the lives destroyed when you withdraw law and order.ke what's your take on this and how do you see this unfolding with the democrats coming up? >> i think you're absently right that republicans need to be more vocal about this stop and what it starts with is they have been so trigger shy becauserf they ae fearful of being called white and privileged and the fear of being called racist and that's problematic bear the facts are the facts of what we are seeing is inner cities, the very people we should be trying to protect, underprivileged people, minorities in inner-cities are

suffering and i will say this, you're absolutely right. the left is boulder. they have no issue of saying something so insane, they are a post truth society, post george floyd, able to prove late all of their bad policies. you start to see this marxist ideology creep into the inner cities who wake up, feels like we are in a batman movie. it's like gotham city in these cities and who are stuck with the marxist ideology? is the minorities. when you say things like defund thery police, you tried to set a marxist proletariat war. they say, "look at you, working class, your real enemy is business owners." of course it's not. >> tammy: sara, what you alluded to as well, is the nature of this seemingly emerging but it was just never covered by -- what was going on at the universities were never covered. so all of these young people

come out being indoctrinated into these communities, running for office, destroying those lives, and we don't know because thew media, they are now saying they will do with joe biden,, sara, they are going to choose to not say anything about what it is that might expose what's really going on. this is the danger to the country. >> right, tammy. instead of doing a job come and sit at telling stories, instead of questioning the policies in cities like chicago, in seattle where the chief of police, a black woman said, i'm resigning because you are defunding our budget and can even protect the people here in seattle. when you see what happens in portland. but when people refuse to cover the stories and, also, i think candace brought up such a significant point, when republicans shy away from the truth, they don't face the truth, they don't talk about it, they don't reach out to the minority communities, they don't realize that people in minority

communities, i've covered them,o my mother was an immigrant from cuba. i understand what people are going through, communities reach out to them, they will tell us what we need. >> tammy: the fact you have to say that -- candace owens delma, we've had t donald trump and hes the first republican with an overture to the black community, what do you have to lose, seems like republicans have not learned anything from the most basic thing an american president can do is what your advice be to the republicans to carry on in the effect that trump for some reason isn't able to do it himself, that attitude about governance in this count country? >> you know what? my advice is never to politicians because my belief is in the people to wake up. the people living inside the inner cities, wake up and look you because you can now see in real life time what it is that you have to lose.

you are losing your families, your neighborhoods are being destroyed by these policies and marxist ideologies. if you wake up and don't learn real history you will wake up and end up like cuba, venezuela, like russia, zimbabwe, like every other marxist ideological solidly before it. time to stop relying on politicians to tell them what's going on. spew an excellent point. for the three of us, this is not the traditional panel of who would be -- people in the inner city would be listening to, the messages we have from all of us. sarah, myself, a gay woman, thisis what matters. america matters, america first matters, that starts with people inop the inner city and the urbn areas. the great cities of this country. ladies, thank you very much for joining me. i appreciate it.

directly ahead, the all-important georgia senate runoff, one of the candidates caught on camera praising the reverend jeremiah wright's anti-american sermon. we have the tape coming up next.

>> tammy: welcome back to the special edition of "hannity," i'm tammy bruce. one week before the all-important georgia special election, mitch mcconnell introduced his own stimulus bill which includes $20,000 payments, as well as other trump administration priorities. this comes as democrats are seeing strong early vote turnout in georgia. however, the left is beginning to raise concerns as ossof and warnock are no warning of dwindling funds. a source tells nbc news that

chuck schumer is pessimistic about the democrats' chances on tuesday. biden planningg to campaign in georgia, the same bay president trump struggled a rally, i wonderlo who will get more people. a2014 video of raphael warnock praisingai controversial preachr jeremiah wright, "g-d america" sermon, how can we forget that? >> jeremiah wright, by the way, very thoughtful and insightful piece on the relationship between god and government situated in the augustine city of god. authority of what should be okay

in this context situated, but i think it's christian preaching at best. >> tammy: with their reaction, thank you very much for joining me. charlie, one of the new things has developed over the last decade is that everyone has got cameras. most things are recorded but what i appreciate about warnock is he's honest. normally we have politicians who really workci really hard to gaslight you and to pretend that they like reagan, like obama did. and then you are surprised because they get into office and then they bonk you over the head. what do you think is going to do here when it comes to georgia? these kind of admissions from warnock and all the problems that have surfaced. dorf you think this is going to have an impact at this stage considering it looks like the democrats are beginning this

take on a a second look and note arrogant on what's going to happen in the fifth? >> absolutely and i think voters are going in this with theirid eyes wide open about the two democratic candidates here. obviously they've been campaigning now for almost a year. of course, republicans are trying to nationalize this race to talk about the fact to give democrats both of these races is to give the democrats all the power to democrats and how dangerous it is when you have democrats running by people who want to give free health care to illegal aliens and take away people's guns rights and defund the police. these are really radical ideas that have taken over the democratic party. but what's really scary about this, tammy, is raphael warnock and jon ossoff, they are the tip of the spear on the stuff. it is like these moderates off to the side and they are going to get hauled off with this

leftward crew, these guys, they are part of this left ideology as you just noted in that clip right there that has taken of the democratic party appear they are the problem with today's democratic party. >> tammy: leo, we saw down ballot in the general election the democrats were completely decimated. the republicans had run away and even according to joy biden, because of the defund the police rhetoric, because of what the democrats have been doing, americans rejected that. the two republicans won their races but not by enough. you have been in georgia. what is it you are seeing, because georgians, they also do not want us back on their knees, they don't want us catering to tyrants, they don't want to pack the supreme court.n' what are you seeing on the ground there? >> you're absolutely right. i was there last week. i'm supporting kelly loeffler

and you are absolutely right. georgia is a red state. the republicans won georgia except for the top position. that's something to dispute. what i'm telling you right now is that warnock is so extreme -- let me be clear. this is a man who has said that police officers are thugs and gangsters. he's a man who said that you can't serve god and be in the military. he is a guy who told america to repent for your whiteness. this man is a racist! up you are racist. can't win a dogcatcher job and any other year. this mansion not be running for senate, he should not really be a preacher and he's a threat to american values. we cannot let ossof and warnock become senators. they will take this country to the left, we must protect the trump legacy. >> tammy: obviously that'll make a huge difference because we know, again, that a lot of

people vote for people and think that this is just rhetoric, that it's meaningless, that they would never do anything that crazy. i come from the left. leo, you're making the transition.n one thing i can say, when you're on the left, i meant what i said, nothing will stop them. charlie, at the same time, you see this different environment in georgia with stacey abrams' sister. she's a federal judge. she's made a decision about an issue that her sister, of course, has an extreme interest in which his voter fraud, and stopping the cleaning up of the voter rolls. is that the kind of thing that you think georgians see as unfair? for those of us not in georgia, is that being made clear to the people of georgia, the kind of corruption and the unfairness that has been unfolding at the hands of the democrats? >> without a doubt.

president trump is talking aboua that as much as anybody right now and it's a very important thing to talk about and is an important thing for republicans to finally get serious about doing something about it and fixing in places like georgia, chicago, philadelphia, some of these big cities where this fraud is pretty rampant and it's a real problem and republicans have been happy to ignore it for far long.fo i have praised president trump for finally taking this seriously. but i do think it is sinking in, but i think it's also just as important to remind us voters that however frustrated you are, if you want to do something about this corruption, the only way to do something about this corruption is to get out on january 5th and vote for loeffler and purdue. the only way anything good will come. >> tammy: there's plenty to do. leo, it's a nonpartisan problem. you've got a republican governor, secretary of state, none of us are happy with them. that can be another fight.

it's not like you have to let go ofve that. one bite at a time. i think, leo, would you agree that the people of georgia perhaps are going to start taking another look at the nature of the person who iswh leading them versus the party, is that right? >> tammy, you're absolutely right. we have tolo look at the country and what is at stake next week is a country. leffler and purdue are there to protect american values. we can fight in different aren arenas. tuesday we save the country. t >> and the trump legacy. the trump impact. gentlemen, thank you very much. next up -- thank you. in california, in crisis, of course. ric grenell and darrell issar will explain why far left politicians are failing their constituents. please stay with us.

>> tammy: unfortunately tonight, the state ofto califora continues to fail its residents virtually on every front. from worsening public safety to the destruction of small businesses and out-of-control coronavirus, day-to-day lives in the golden state worsened by the day. for example, some california hospitals are even citing oxygee and supply shortages and warning of an all out disaster in the weeks ahead, but governor gavin newsom and state officials refused to change course and continue to double down on the same policies from the past that have so far failed to contain the pandemic. the governor's undeniable failures along with his refusal to take any real responsibility for the worsening living conditions across the state is fueling calls for a recall election as major venture

capitalists and political consulting firm revealed this week that they are backing the effort with six-figure donations to force a recall vote, supporters need to collect around 1.5 million signatures by march and so far, proponents say they've gathered around 800,000, signaling this is a serious effort with serious momentum behindon it. but unfortunately, california's problems go beyond just the governor's mansion. for example, the state supreme court recently ruled that thousands of sex offenders are eligible for early release. out in los angeles, far left district attorney george guestst on continues to be a strong backlash over his efforts to stop prosecuting a wide range of crimes and ending sentencing enhancements. as the union resenting the l.a. l.a. county prosecutor seeking this special directed the prosecutors say it is unethical and even illegal to carry out. breaking tonight, and l.a. county judge has ordered

guest tofile a response by january 15. they have not issued a restating order the prosecutors were asking for so will of course continue to follow that story. but democrats in washington want to take these failed policies and impose them on every body, the rest of the country, and unleash will be the most destructive political force in modern u.s. history.. because what you are seeing pla out across california is just a preview of coming attractions if this barlow power grab doesn't get stopped in its tracks. it's why americans must demand something different from our political establishmentta and demand these so-called leaders do more than just pander for our vote and instead actually do something to improve the quality of our lives bear joining me now for reaction, former acting director of national intelligence ric grenell along with the congressman elect in congress' 50th district darrell issa. thank you for being here.

ric, i'm a native californian. i know you love and enjoy the state. i was involved in the recall of greg davis in 2003. i was on arnold's bush and egger's transition team. unfortunately it worked out the way it worked out. we've got a dynamic here in florida that requires people to be bold. californians can do it. with this new money going into this recall effort, do you see this succeeding, do you think it'll get done? >> it very well could. there is some real excitement going on. i want to speak to people who live in california who have been really frustrated with gavin newsom over the last several years. we can recall him. we are getting very close. we are getting close to about a million signatures. we need at 1.5. we have until march 10th. we have the plan. we've started slowly and one of the reasons why is because of

covid and the national election. a lot of people were distracted but certainly not going to get any help from the california media, especially the sacramento media. thisac whole state has been reay ruled by one party, the democratic party. they get to decide everything in sacramento. >> tammy: that's a problem. e >> the media panders to them. that's a huge problem. we are beginning to make a change. i'm going to encourage everybody to get involved because we really can recall gavin newsom. it's possible and it seems like it's happening. >> tammy: the state of california is magnificent, the people are fabulous. when i was on the left and even now, we note that california was looked to by the left as a petri dish about what they can get away with. what can they push onto people. darrell, this is an interesting framework where they achieve the dream of one party rule, and they now seem to have everything they want and they can't admit when they are wrong.

they are doubling down with this new stay-at-home order. it's a condemnation of more business is, of the future for everyone. do they actually think they are going to outrun this virus? what do you think the outcome is going to be? what is it going to taper gavin newsom and the democrats to say, we were wrong? >> as you remember back in 2003, greg davis double down in the wrong direction. economy in ruins, electra said unreliable. and tax increases followed. gavin newsom has done the same thing, he's added one more thing, these tyrannical orders that at first were obeyed and iw didn't work and now you have industry, especially the restaurant industry in full revolt. you can go anywhere in california, particularly in southern california and sit down and have a dinner in a restaurant where they just simply said, i'm not going to close again, we are not the

cause of of this, the patronsng are coming back to those restaurants because they too know that three quarters of all the cases originate in the home and less than 1% originate in restaurants and similar places. gavin newsom will not allow real science, instead he has a political science concept that isn't working. >> tammy: it's astounding and it's in our face. it's a fire. it's burning on the future. in 30 seconds we have left here, the los angeles county d.a., and astounding conflagration of failure and desire, it seems, for more crime. do you think he's going to be stop in any fashion when it comes to what he's been trying to do there? >> i do think so and i think it's because the left, actually. a lot of my liberal friends are sick and tired of garcetti and

these policies from the left, shutting down the beach is is what gavin newsom did, original action toward covid-19. this is not based on science, as darrell issa said. we really need new leadership. i think that the left, the right, the center in california are all realizing this. this has gone wrong. we have homeless people everywhere. our economy is in shambles. we do not have and lng terminal. our governor in california hasia not allowed to have a terminal out there. >> tammy: do you know what it shows us? g gentlemen, it shows us that leadership matters in one individual's ideas can have an impact, that this is not a foregone conclusion. trump has shown us that as well. good luck to both of you and i'm sure we'll be speaking with you soon. gentlemen, thank you. when we come right back, the whole area

hilaria baldwin scandal.will bet after this.

>> welcome back to this hannity special. this story is almost unbelievable, but it is 2020. a lori a ba hilaria baldwin, the wife of trump hating actor alec baldwin being blasted an online suggesting she is from spain when she was actually born in boston which is not in spain and attended an exclusive private messages is also not in spain high school. after marrying alec in 2012, hilaria became a minor celebrity where she had many occasions to highlight her supposedly spanish heritage. with her spanish accent.

here are a few examples. >> very few ingredients. h we have tomatoes, we have -- how do you say it? >> cucumber. >> do people call you hilary? >> sometimes. my family lives in spain. i have moved to new york when i was 19 years old. >> wow... your english is impeccable. >> i speak both english and spanish. so yes. >> both parents are spanish? >> my family is mixed. but yes, they all live there. >> tammy: there you go. hilaria, or as she was actually named, hillary, took to social media to confirm that she is, in fact, "a white girl." is the damage already done? i heard a little bit of a valley girl accent slip and also there. joining us now is a contributor

rachel campos duffy and fox news radio host larry elder. what's interesting to me is this is the perfect ending to 2020 because while it is bizarre andi kind of -- it's funny, but it is a perfect example, rachel, of what we have done with identity politics. we have incentivized being a minority, if you will. we have elevated it. while the other scary thing is she has a raised her actual own identity in the effort to become effectively someone else. whatat is your take on what this means? >> first of all, alec baldwin was in on all of this. he also said, my wife is from spain, theyey had a wedding with flamenco fans and the whole bit. it was not just hilaria, she's getting most of the negative attention from it, but you are absolutely right. we live in this race obsessed society.

all of us in this panel is from different races. the point is we are all friends and we have in common is is thingsco are much more importanr than race. ideas that we share, values we care about, we are all blessed to be americans. i find it very ironic that may be this fake baldwin heritage story might be able to do for america what the fake unity message from joe biden could not which is expose the silliness of identity politics and remind us that in the end what really matters is that we are all americans. >> tammy: larry, that's it. all of us have unique backgrounds. i am partly italian. doesn'tit mean i come from ital. what is your take, if this is serious in what this means about us as a culture? >> tammy, i'm reminded of something my dad once told me. he and i were watching the news and there's a story about elizabeth taylor being married and divorced eight times but i turned to my daded and said, wht

do you think about this? my dad said, what do you think about what? what do i think about elizabeth taylor being married eight times? i don't think anything about it. you don't't have an opinion? "larry, it ain't worth the energy to come up with one." i had no idea who this woman was. she had 806 the 2,000 followers on instagram. she now has 881,000. she picked up almost 21,000 in two days. as far as she's concerned, i'm sure she's laughing. mission accomplished. it has not been a good year to be a white american. rachel dolezal didn't want to be a white american.be elizabeth warren didn't want to be a white american. it's been a bad year for white americans. >> there are advantages of it. she was on the cover of "hola magazine."

>> tammy: we do have to go, but there's got to be some answers there. there should have been some kind of inquiry about this which would've been easy to find her background, even her husband could've done a simple google search. i think he knows. he's been playing along with it. but the media didn't care to take a look and that, of courseu remains another one of our problems in the years to come is an incurious media. rachel and larry, thank you for joining me tonight. happy new year again. thank you, all, for this special edition of "hannity." we will be back right after the break.
