the united states will prevail through this time and we will be stronger for it. as always, "the story" continues and we will be back tomorrow night at 7:00. have a great night, everybody. we will see you then. ♪ ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." within hours the riot at the u.s. capitol in case you were not watching, we denounce the violence we saw in the clearest possible terms. we did it for one reason. we are totally opposed to political violence. we said that virtually every night for the past six months since the riots began memorial day. we meant it then and we mean it now. every person who broke the law last wednesday should be prosecuted. vandalize a building, hurt a cop, go to jail. that is our position. that has always been our position. this show is for law and order,

period. many of those currently in power are not. they believe instead and selective enforcement. selective enforcement is not law and order but the opposite. laws must be a pro -- applied otherwise they were not a law. punish the guilty, spare the innocent. that is the most basic definition of justice but that is not what is happening now. the crackdown on civil liberties we have watched the past five days amounts to collective punishment. people who had nothing to do with the violence the u.s. capitol are being punished for that violence. that is repugnant, immoral and, anti-american. it should shock our elect -- the russian who was poisoned by the putin government. he watched the crackdown in this country by joe biden and allies and big business and big tech with growing concern and war. here is his conclusion "we've seen many examples in russia and china of such private companies becoming the state's best friend

and enablers when it comes to censorship. this precedent will be exploited by the enemies of freedom of speech around the world." so even in russia where they know what is happening here is dangerous and it is wrong because it is. in the past five days, paypal keep in mind is supposed to be a payment processor, not a political party or law enforcement agency. paperworks suspended who paid for trump supporter's to travel to washington last week. now, it's not clear any of these people participated in the legal acts. we do not know, but they were shut down anyway for their political views. it is a case happening all over, it happened to pink listening to the president's address on wednesday and said he did not get near the capitol but went to his hotel and fell asleep. no one has suggested otherwise but for the crime for attending political rally, up from the record label. he's done. now it is possible he might not

be able to fly on airplanes. the flight attendant demanded banning all insurrections traveling anywhere in the united states. so the question is and everything hangs on this definition, what is an insurrectionist? according to a letter in congress, anyone who sympathizes with what happened on wednesday. think about that. now, you can oppose what happened at the capitol and for the 15th time we do oppose it loudly, have and will. you can still see this development for what it is. it is terrifying lunacy, but no one is pushing back against it. instead, the biggest corporations in the country, the ones that control your checking account, the ones that control your health care, whether you live or die will radically expand the definition of what is now illegal. insurrection, according to this new definition, means questioning any part of november's election. so you thought that your birthright as an american was the right to ask questions, but not anymore. that is now a crime.

consider this come among many examples from a total of 139 republicans in the house of representatives objected to the certification of joe biden's victory and joined by several republicans in the senate. they call instead for the audit over election results. here is what they did not do, they did not support the people who stormed the capitol building and did not promote the cause on the show. we had mixed feelings about it but on the other hand, we did not denounce insurrectionist because they weren't and aren't. except now they are. that definition has huge consequences, not just for them but the country. the definition of insurrection has changed quite a bit and just four years. here is what insurrection look like right after 2016 watch. >> mr. president, i object to the certificate of the state of georgia on the grounds the electoral vote. >> no debate. section 1517, title 3 of the united states code any objection

in writing signed by both members of the house of representatives and a senator. >> mr. president, as people waited hours -- >> there is no debate. if not signed by a senator, the objection cannot be entertained. >> tucker: you may not remember that because not much happened in the aftermath. no major corporation threatened to destroy anyone for that insurrection. they have changed. in the past few days, blue cross blue shield, morgan chase, marriott, citigroup, commerzbank not small companies have all cut off donations for republicans who objected anyway to this year's election results. dow commits at&t, morgan stanley will do the same. here is how citibank ahead of global affairs explained this "we want you to be assured that we will not support those who do not respect or rule of law. that sounds like a brand-new standard come of course it is and by the way does not apply and that is all of them who

support flagrantly sanctuary cities. talk about rule of law but that doesn't count. "forbes" magazine, meanwhile wants to make certain no one who worked in the trump administration will ever have a job again "let it be known to the business world announced the magazine's editor, hire any of trump's fellow and forbes will assume that it is a lie." in other words dare to hire someone from the presidential administration, many thousands of people and we will destroy your business. that is healthy and normal? you want your country to fall apart completely? keep up fascist like that because it definitely will. the irony of the biden era, at the very least supposed to return to normal. that was the upside. but it turns out this is the new normal, silencing, blacklists social credit scores, threats.

at this point to point out the hypocrisy in all of this and we will stop after tonight but just for the record we can't resist. six months after donald trump selection nancy pelosi wrote this on twitter "error election was hijacked here there was no question. congress has a duty to hashtag protect their democracy and follow the facts. insurrection? no! a month later, bernie sanders tried to murder officeholders with a rifle at a baseball practice in arlington, virginia. he almost succeeded and almost killed him. the same corporations suspended donations to bernie sanders or nancy pelosi them by the way they shouldn't have because pelosi and sanders did not pull the trigger. but they didn't even consider it nor did they issue statements about respecting the rule of law or threaten nancy pelosi fabulous but never working in america again. the same countries indeed remained quiet last summer after setting fire to the episcopal church in front of the white house and drove the president of the united states

into an underground bunker with violence. they said nothing. they said nothing when rioters destroyed a police precinct in minneapolis. in fact the whole downtown of the city. and seized a federal courthouse or established to breakaway republican downtown and shot a guy in the middle of it. in some way, they approved of it. citibank three months later gave the rioters money. they created a $1 billion fund for racial equity. go ahead and defined that term. some enterprise progressives establish something called the minnesota freedom fund. that means tens of millions of dollars to bail out the rioters. in the democratic party politicians including kamala harris supported that fund. the insurrectionist support of them. we were against that kind of thing now and are completely against it now. but insurrection not necessarily, this is situational. situational ethics from the '60s. it is a good thing because the

work of justice is gone. the fbi to conduct one of the biggest in recent history. roger stone and everyone on the wrong side of that equation. but actually commit is worse than that if we will be honest. we don't want to be alarmist but the hair on your arms and standing up as you can feel this is bad because it is. something bigger is happening. something we've never seen in the full course of american history. corporations are more powerful than they have ever been, ever, ocolluding with one another to silence any opposition, not just some ideal. they don't have those but to their rule. this is not what we were promised. the election is over. you thought things would calm down. again, even if you voted against joe biden, if you thought they would calm down. no chance. that is one campaign promise they didn't intend to keep. why? home does not serve their purposes. most people, most normal people

in the country would like a placid, political environment. but they don't benefit from that because they were coalition has nothing in common with one another. they need an enemy to unite them period. and so they will keep torquing up the pressure. how much pressure can our society take before it breaks? they may find out. mr. unity comparing his opponents in the senate to. >> they are part of the big lie, the big lie. i was being reminded by a friend of mine. maybe you were with me, i can't recall, when we were told cola bulls in the great lie, you keep repeating the lie, keep repeating the light. >> tucker: not even pronouncing the name correctly, of course but the broader point, how dare you talk like that? you are the president-elect! and you are comparing people who disagree with you or question the agenda to not -- if they are

not human, they are. you play with fire when you talk like that. people are going to get hurt if you keep talking like that. nancy pelosi plans to keep calling for that. she is not calling for unity and she doesn't want unity. instead, leveling the most divisive attack you can make. that is a racial attack. the real problem with trump voters she explained the other date is the color of their skin. listen. >> you know, there are people in our country led by this president for the moment, who have chosen their whiteness over democracy. >> tucker: that pig should live forever. when donald trump said yeah, people should go to the capitol, that is reckless and we said so because we want to be americans and responsible. before anything else. so we were honest about that. nancy pelosi just attacks people who oppose her agenda for the color of their skin. their whiteness. what the hell does that mean? what does talk like that due to

our country? what it does is send a very clear message from anyone who disagrees with joe biden in nancy pelosi is a or white supremacist. they are not american. they don't have human rights. they have no right to speak, fly or use banks or will jobs. where is this going? thinking like that? it is poison! we will tell you where it's going, wherever corporate america wants it to go because they are in charge effectively. corporations are fully aligned. this has never happen in our country. they are fully aligned with a political party. how much distance between the biden campaign and googled the most powerful company in the world? right around then. so publicly held multinational twitter and google can do what they want and they want to be partisan next. they silenced donald trump, okay, they will silence you if you dare dissent, make no mistake. republicans should have seen this coming. it is not like it was a mystery.

they never hid their intent. here is kamala harris sing it from the debate stage. >> senator warren come i want to say i was surprised to hear that you did not agree with me on this subject of what should be the rules around corporate including the big tech companies when i called on twitter to suspend donald trump's account that you did not agree. i would urge you -- >> look come i don't want to push donald trump off of twitter. that is our job. >> joined me in saying his twitter account should be shut down. we want anyone who says the other side must be forced to stop talking is a threat to our freedoms period. if you don't like what someone says, explain why and win people hat the democratic system is at its core. anyone who says "i will use the power of the state of google to make the other side shut up" again come a threat to your

freedom. by the way, this is also illegal, baldly illegal but the most basic of antitrust laws, when monopolies conspire to suppress competition and hurt consumers, it is not a close call. they are breaking the law period. it doesn't matter if anyone in washington is brave enough to say that out loud, does not make it any less true. the evidence mounts. this week amazon, facebook, google, openly set their sights on social media app parler. and booted them off the internet. not just them but according to ceo john matze, everything from text message services to email providers to the lawyers ditched us on the same day. imagine that. you wake up and suddenly unpopular with the wrong person and you can't communicate and you have no legal representation. you can't fly on an airplane. you can put your money in the

bank. on what grounds did they do this to parler? what did parler do wrong? we still don't know. no one has bothered to explain that. not one person in law enforcement or the media has shown any connection between any of the criminals caught on camera at the capitol building. you have seen them and parler. parler committed no crimes! so why are they gone? conservative speak to each other on parler. that is dangerous. so they are banned. yesterday, the left shut parler down. they it a lot of different ways but your is the way you should think about most people. it was on the biggest retailer in the world also controls the largest collection of servers in the world. it is called amazon web services. now a huge percentage of internet flows through amazon servers. that means everything, good and bad, digital recordings and hard-core pornography, bible verses and invoices for illegal shipments of sentinel. all of that much more. almost everything is hosted on

amazon servers. so until yesterday, no one imagined jeff bezos could decide who gets to speak on the internet. that is too much power for one man. can we agree? no one thought that jeff bezos could silence an entire political movement in an instant simply because he thought they were expressing and convenient to use. but last night, that is exactly what jeff bezos did and parler went dark. what is next? we will likely find out soon. john matze, ceo of parler we have him on tonight. thank you for coming on. i have to start at the end and ask you since you built this application as a kind of safe space for freedom of speech, did you ever imagined that amazon web services could or would shut you down and an instant? >> thank you for having me on. i have theorized about it. we definitely theorized about

it. you just never think it will happen, right? you know? what is really interesting is that they all did on the same day, those three without any prior warning. we woke up on friday thinking business, business as usual on parler but at least we were number one on the app store. we had 7 million come almost 7 million unique people on the app that day. and we get a notice you are in violation of our terms one after the other. in some cases not from the companies but buzzfeed. we didn't get a notice from google. we read it online in the news first. that is shocking! and then after they set that example, you know, we get email after email. it is almost like you are just waiting, who is going to be next dumping us? everybody. the last thing we have right now is email. i bet you within 24 hours, our email will be shut down too. >> tucker: i've just got to

ask you because i think this is a referendum on american society where we are and where we are going. the left used to stand up for civil liberties. the joe manchin approves of this. apart from glenn greenwald, god bless them come i have not seen liberals to stand up and say well met, this is really scary. have you? >> i'm not sure. i have seen a lot of people say this is scary, but i've seen a lot of people who are participating in the 5 minutes of hate and egging it on and cheering. it is disgusting. people threatening my life. i can't go home tonight. so this is really a lot, you know. this is not just our civil liberties. they can shut down a billion-dollar company, half a billion dollar company overnight. >> tucker: are you going to be back up soon? >> we will be back up eventually because we will not give up. but soon is difficult.

i thought immediately no problem we will call up a new vendor. call up a new vendor, good to go, last-second, sorry someone said something. and has been that way one after another since them. right at the last minute. they just fail. so we are going to do it. we will be back online monday. and hopefully soon, as soon as possible. but this is a real challenge. we have to build our own infrastructure, our own everything in order to do it. >> tucker: pirate radio, digital pirate radio, dark web. i hope you will come back. you will come back with a list of every corporate coward who backed the pressure to silence you in 700 million other people on parler. >> you can bet i will. almost 20 million people and yes, i will. >> i won't forget this day, great to see you, thank you. judge jeanine pirro the host of justice and joins us with reaction tonight, thank you so

much for coming on. so all that this is being done under th pretense everybody who voted for trump were the questions about the election or doesn't like joe biden or thinks they are too powerful are implicated in the insurrection last week on capitol hill. i could not resist noticing that you've got to be one of the most prominent trump supporter's and immediately attacked that garbage, which you did it. what is this really about? >> well, look, what is happening in this country is beyond the pale. i did come i said what happened on capitol hill on january 6th s reprehensible. it was criminal. and that they need to be prosecuted for this. without a doubt, the law is a law and we live in a civilized, orderly society. they cannot do that. they are no better of people committing other crimes, all right? take politics out of it. that is number one. but number two is the reaction

that everyone is having to any trump supporter. and that is where the problem is. you've got 75 million americans who voted for donald trump. donald trump has been taken off of twitter and basically being the platform but what they are doing is this raw going against any of us. so where any conservatives or republican communicates, for example, parler, we will shut them down. we will not allow them to share their ideas on a platform of a legend ideas. this is a punishment that we saw pre-election when big tech decided to suppress the biden story. i don't know why we thought it would be any different after the election except we thought g, maybe joe biden will come in and that will be the end of it. the president said the other day i am committed to an orderly transition of power. joe biden said i don't want to have any problems, everything is great. and yet, people focusing on an

impeachment charging the president on d platforming all of us in making that these big corporations don't contribute to republican politicians. this is the kind of thing you see in a movie that can never happen in america. what we are giving platforms and immunity under 230. go ahead. you are free platform, open platform of ideas, but they are editorializing. so you know what, they should be held to the same standard. you know who is at fault for that? congress! congress has to pass a law to rip away immunity and they want to erase all of us. which is the most incredible thing. so now you have 75 million trump supporter saying, where my going? what do i do now? who do i follow? can i say i supported trump? >> tucker: when you get control of your country to monsters like jeff bezos, you

know, tim cook at apple, this is what you get. judge jeanine, great to see you. >> thank you. >> tucker: learn tonight joe biden's key appointees has a past that you will not believe. we rarely use the word shocking because it's overused, but we did some reporting in the last couple of days. and what we will tell you will shock you and should. we will be right back. ♪bu we'll be there when you want better rates too. or to get money for retirement. we'll be there because we work only with veteran families like yours to help you get the most life out of a home for the life of your family

♪ >> i'm fortunate enough to be confirmed. we will turn the page on hate and close the door on discrimination by enforcing our federal civil rights laws. >> tucker: that was a woman called kristen clark speaking at an event last week for her new boss, president-elect joe biden. kristin clark is joe biden's pick for the justice department, enormously powerful civil rights division. clark said her job is to end page. like so many in her role, clark is enthusiastic purveyor of what she claims to fight. clerk has been on the show several times. the new investigation by our reporters has uncovered shocking, and we don't use that word lightly, legitimately shocking statements clark made at harvard. in 1994, clark wrote a letter to crimson and capacity of the

black studies association. clark wanted to explain use on race science "please use the following series and observation to assist you in your search for truth with regarding genetic differences between blacks and whites." you know what will be interesting and it was "one, dr. richard king reveals the core of the human brain is the structure that is black because it contains large amounts of neural melon which is essential for its operation. to cope black infants sit, crawl, walk walk sooner than wh. three, carol barnes notes human mental processes controlled by the same chemical that gives black superior, physical and mental abilities. four, some scientists have revealed that most whites are not able to produce this because their glands are calcified or nonfunctioning. the calcification rates with african-americans are 5-15%,

asians 15-25% in europeans 60-80% and chemical basis for the cultural differences between blacks and whites. and five, melon an end intel's blacks with physical and spiritual abilities something that cannot be measured on eurocentric standards." let that sink in. melanin and dowels black people with physical, mental and spiritual abilities. the editorial from the newspaper says that is a direct quote from the person joe biden is about to put in charge of this country civil rights laws. even at harvard, crackpot theories like that were considered deranged and dangerous. after an outcry on campus, kristen clark suggested she didn't necessarily believe what she had written. "the harvard crimson," left-wing paper did not buy that explanation. does she or doesn't she? wrote the editors.

so far she has given us and every indication that she does, and indeed, she did appear just a month later kristin clark noted trinidadian anti-semite tony martin to speak on campus. martin a professor at wellesley college a self published manifesto called "the jewish onslaught." escalating jewish onslaught against the black people. now, for martin van slyke kristin clark from of the speech at harvard did not disappoint. he attacked and judaism as a religion. tony martin spent final years to holocaust denial organizations on topics of of tactics. kristin clark strongly approved of tony martin and we are not speculating because as she told the crimson after his speech "professor martin is an intelligent, well versed, black intellectual who bases his information on indisputable

facts." so we can, directly from kristin clark, tony martin's anti-semitism was based on "indisputable fact." kristin clark has never shared these views. they simply have become more sophisticated. just last year as a law year, was fighting for the crudest kind of racial discrimination in college admission. this fall, she said it was madness for the federal government to take the side of asian applicants who had provable bentonite college admissions purely because of their skin color. but tough luck as far as kristin clark was concerned, those asians didn't have enough melanin and melon and is the k key. speaking of madness, in the same country someone like kristin clark would be under investigation for the civil rights division, not running it. how crazy have we become? well, we will see if clark's nomination will get to the u.s. senate. are in serious

trouble. parler isn't the only tech company fighting back against what is unprecedented in this moment. another major battle getting started. it could change how you get information online. of course, you get all your information online so it is worth paying attention to. we will be right back. ♪

>> tucker: so the crackdown over the past five days has been without precedent but not everyone caught up and it is taking it lightly. parler, not only tech company to follow suit. just hours ago rumble.com sued google. rumple alleges google unfairly raking its search algorithms. able to quote wrongful traffic to youtube, which of course, a ceo of rumple.com, thank you so much for coming on. it sounds like what you are alleging is pretty clear crime under antitrust laws, is it not?

>> tucker, thank you for having me on. so in our complaints, what we are alleging is google's self referencing youtube in their search engine and also youtube app on all devices. specifically and uniquely within the complaint and unique to us is that we are able to show that google has redirected about up to 9.3 billion visitors to youtube instead of having it to rumble. they have landed on rumble.com and we would have generated 100 million uploads on our platform which would have resulted in damages well above in excess of $2 billion. but more importantly, who is getting infected is not just rumble here or there is an entry on creators. and even further than that, i was one of those guys building up a website out of my parents

basement, and it saddened me because imagine being a tech entrepreneur to build an online video platform. you absolutely do not have a shot. you don't have a chance. you have a rigged search engine, and you have no ability to compete in this market. that is why our complaint is extremely important. to fight back against tech monopolies unfairly raking it for all of us. >> tucker: in the first place, freedom itself, so google clearly is the monopoly by any definition. why do you suppose it has not been reined in? >> so, you know, it is interesting because when youtube was purchased by google in 2006, late 2006, what we noticed is that they vertically -- it's my opinion they vertically integrated youtube with the search engine. over time, they have continually

move the goalpost over the last 15 years to make it more difficult over time for us, companies like us to compete. one of the things, like we allege in the complaint and we show, you search funny dogs on rumble, you are going to get funny dogs on youtube. which is crazy. when you think about that, if they can rigged the search engines for cats and dogs, they can rig it for anything. >> tucker: google should not have a monopoly on funny dogs, given all the other monopolies. we are rooting for you and i appreciate you coming on to tell us what happened. >> thank you, thank you very much for having me. >> tucker: so they oppose monopolies for only like 100 years and they show to oppose monopolies? something has gone very wrong. by the way, last year the republicans joined by democrats issued a joint statement condemning antitrust abuses by companies like google and

amazon. and supporting that, tulsi gabbard and still does a former democratic congressman from hawaii and joins us to tell us what happened. congresswoman, thank you so much for coming on. this used to be literally from the progressive era until yesterday, was at the center of the democratic party's identity were against monopolies. when did that change, and why? >> first of all, let's be clear from the outset as we are seeing now, once again, how dangerous these big tech monopolies are and how imperative it is that we break them up here that we actually bring about solutions r that they have amassed. and the important thing is is that we do this through legislative changes and reform, not through throwing molotov cocktails and having riots. >> tucker: exactly. >> this is where we come into play. we as voters need to make sure we are choosing leaders who are motivated by serving the

american people come upholding the constitutional freedoms and upholding the democracy more than being motivated by selfish interest and how it away please my big tech monopoly donors? and this is where, you know, there is a lot of hopelessness and wondering how do we do this? hope can be found in recognizing the power in our own voices as voters that we really do get to choose who holds these high offices of power. and that we can make that decision by saying "hey, you need to be someone i'm confident committing to serving the best interest of the american people and committing to upholding the constitutional rights and freedoms. and you are not one of these people, politicians who existed so long and have been a part of the problem because they are so addicted to getting this money from the big tech monopolies and therefore, no matter how much noise they make about how, you know, this is a bad thing.

when it comes right down to bits, they actually don't do what it takes to make the changes necessary to work for us, the american people. >> tucker: i don't understand why more people aren't outraged by censorship. nancy pelosi was shut down, censored, silenced, erased tomorrow my don't care for nancy pelosi's views come i would swear that i would defend her. trump, whatever you think about what he says, i don't like, everybody, everybody, this is great i support this. a very smart guy, he is in favor of censorship. what is this? >> it is really disheartening to see how people are so inwardly looking at only supporting voices of those who agree with them, rather than recognizing the country that our founders envisioned for all of us. you know, we talked about this before, this is something i take to heart in a very deep way like every other service member that

we take an oath to uphold the constitution. to support and defend it which supports including the freedom of speech of every single person in this country, whether we agree with that speech were not. whether that speech offends us or not. that is at the heart of this country and who we are as americans. and we must all stand up and support that and make sure that we pressure our leaders to do the same. the one amen. otherwise, what are people dying for? i couldn't agree more. so nicely put, tulsi gabbard, thank you for coming. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: so obviously, as we have chronicled the last three nights on television, this crackdown is really clear. make the president go away. okay, over a week he will be going away. expanded to make everyone who disagrees with him to go away. josh hawley is on that list and he joins me next.

like to expel republican officeholders, not censor them but expelled from the legislative body anyone who questions last year's election results. here is the amazing thing. many of those same democrats voted against certifying that 2005 election results. barbara lee of california in 2005, watch. >> thank you very much. first of all come i rise to object to the certification of ohio's electoral vote. in 2004, the democratic process was thwarted. >> tucker: so today that would be known as insurrection here and she would not be allowed to fly a commercial aircraft. today, you know. the good news is we still have a constitution as of 8:51 on monday night. the democrats can't boot senator josh hawley from office because he was put in by voters. but cancel his book, simon and schuster canceled his book contract not because they didn't

like the book because they commissioned it but because they don't like his politics. if they can do that, simon & schuster one of the biggest publishers in the world can do that, where does that leave you? senator josh hawley joins us tonight. senator, thank you so much for coming on. you are one of the most despised people in america so i appreciate you taking time to be hated to come on the show tonight. but i want to ask you specifically what happened between you and simon and schuster, and a future book with simon & schuster, making me uncomfortable watching what they did to you. on what grounds did they cancel your book contract? >> well, they don't like the exercise of free speech, tucker at the end of the day and this is really about the first amendment and free speech and simon and schuster didn't like me doing what democrats did to congress in 2001-2005, 2017 when democratic members of congress objected during the process in order to have a debate about election integrity.

that is the first amendment at work but simon & schuster unfortunately a lot of people on the left now decide of the first amendment is something that they no longer support. i will say this, tucker, by the time division, we have to rally around the things that unite us as americans. the first amendment of free speech has to be at the top of the list. >> tucker: so some creepy low iq politician says i want to shut down -- i get it but literally the guarding of the first amendment. you access because of the first amendment and your duty is to protect the first amendment. but the people at simon & schuster so crazed with ideology they can't bear to hear a view expressed? what is that pretense for the country? >> i think it shows we are in a period the first amendment values and principles of freedom of speech and also freedom of worship, freedom of religion, these things are really under attack by some quarters, many quarters. i come back to the fact that the

first amendment is something that unites us as americans. at this time of division and this time of chaos, we've got to stand strong for that. >> tucker: man, i hope in their little cubicles of simon & schuster they are so ashamed of themselves have been woken up with ideology hung over. that they reversed course and bring us back to the public conversation. great to see you tonight, senator. >> thank you. >> tucker: we have more news. we will be right back. ♪
