i will be back here tomorrow night at 7:00. right now i think it's time without any further delay to get tucker karl sob up and ready to go. tucker had a great show. i had a chance to glance at the format i was forced to promise not to tell you exactly. ♪ ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." when people talk about the republican nominee for president in 2024, kristi noem's name comes up. she is the governor of south dakota. her name has been in the news for other reasons over the last couple of days. she has vetoed a bill that would ban biological men from competing in women's sports. and that puzzled a lot of her supporters and would be fans. in a moment governor noem joins to us explain why she is doing that. but, first tonight, just two months into joe biden's presidency and already the administration has lost control of our main international

border. entire populations are moving north through mexico tonight. just last month u.s. customs and border protection apprehended 100,000 illegal migrants in california, new mexico, arizona and texas. but some dhs officials believe that number will soon double to 200,000 a month, moving illegally into this country. now, the overwhelming majority of these foreign nationals will remain here permanently if the democratic party has its way they will become citizens and registered voters. these numbers are enormous. it's hard to comprehend just how big. we have never seen demographic change like this. it's roughly the equivalent of a brand new city of chicago every year. the city populated entirely by poor people with limited education who can't speak english. now, you are not supposed to say any of that but so what? it's true. and the question is how is it good for america? we live in a deeply fractured country on the cusp of an economic crisis.

how will an unprecedented surgeon of millions of low-skilled foreign nationals strengthen the american economy? how will it unite our society which badly needs it. honestly? we would love to hear someone answer these questions calmly and at length. they are the only questions that matter. spare us the lecture about how opposing open borders is racist. the all hispanic counties of south texas don't like open borders either. they made that very clear in the way they voted in november. the people responsible for these decisions for this crisis don't want to talk about it. and they don't want you to ask questions. if you do, they will denounce you for attacking immigrants. please, nobody thinks it's the immigrant's fault. you can't blame poor people for wanting to come here. who wouldn't come. who among us? free education, free healthcare, clean streets. safety. you would have to be crazy not to leave guatemala for texas so, of course, they are. the people streaming across the border want better lives for their families and no one can hate them for that least of all, us.

the people to blame are the reckless idealogues who caused this disaster. joe biden tops that list. biden wanted this to happen. he said so out loud at a democratic debate. >> i would, in fact, make sure that there is -- we immediately surge to the border all those people seeking asylum. they deserve to be heard. that's who we are. nation that says if you want to flea and you are fleeing oppression, you should come. >> tucker: you should come, said joe biden to millions of the world's poorest people. joe biden promised the world's best medical care for free. he pledged not to deport anyone. he told them they would make better americans than the americans who were born here. and, of course, they heard him. the moment joe biden took office, many thousands began the journey north. some of them arrived at the border wearing joe biden t-shirt and demanding to be let in. they are happy to explain why they came. >> this father who asked that we

not show his face traveled to mexico from brazil with his wife and three young kids before crossing the border. >> would have you tried to do this when donald trump was president. >> definitely not. >> so did you come here because joe biden was elected president? >> basically. basically. the main thing was the violence in my country. and the second thing, i think was joe biden. >> tucker: so they are running from collapsing countries. they are running toward joe biden. you could have seen this coming. senior officials atticus toms and border patrol did see it coming and they warned the white house that a human disaster was on the way. the policies changed and the rest of the world responded. you knew it was going to happen. but the biden administration ignored them. and then it doubled down announcing a mass amnesty and end to deportation of unaccompanied minors. any young person who enters our country alone will be allowed to

stay. so not surprisingly, many of them came. as of tonight, there are over 15,000 so-called unaccompanied minors in the u.s. custody waiting to be processed. not all of them are children or even minors. at least 5,000 of them are teenagers up to at least the age of 17. but there is no real way to know how old they are or even who they are because that's the nature of illegal immigration. and that's why functional countries use visas. one thing this is a human tragedy for everyone involved. the migrants making their way through mexico which hates them and mistreats them. and a tragedy for those of us who live hear. what's amazing is that even as this crisis appeared on the horizon, the biden administration seemed totally unprepared for it once it arrived. at incompetence to their growing list of sins. they had no idea what they were doing. as of tonight, there are no more beds in border facilities. we have long past the point of not enough. just today dhs announced plans to turn the san diego convention

center into a migrant shelter. other migrants would be given hotel rooms. according to axios, the administration plans to spend at least $90 million on lodging for people coming here illegally. think about that. at a time when there are more than half a million americans homeless living on the streets, a crushing number that our leaders ignore but that rises every single year, that the moment, joe biden is giving hotel rooms to illegal aliens. it's hard to believe that's real oh, but it is real. those migrants who can't get a hotel room or live in downtown san diego or fry at public expense to processing facilities are simply being release not country. this is what open borders actually looks like. chaos. how chaotic is it? tonight we can only see the outlines of it because the biden administration is keeping journalists at a distance. they don't want the public to see too much. their excuse, of course, is covid, it always is. watch the dhs secretary explain. >> right now we have no access

to photos of the conditions in the facilities. there have been no ride alongs with agents. all inquiries are routed through washington. there have been strict controls on sharing data. local border patrol folk feel like they can't even talk to our folks down there. is there a gag order? >> there is not. that is unequivocally false, chuck. and, let's be clear here. we are in the midst of a pandemic. we are because of the extraordinary leadership of the president climbing out of it more rapidly than ever before. but we are still in the midst of the pandemic. >> tucker: oh, so there is a pandemic and that means border patrol agents can't do phone interviews. right. so here you have the administration telling journalists that there is a once in a lifetime news event underway something that will change this country are forever but they can't cover it. your cameras might hurt us politically. how can the press corps reply to

this? this is the president they wanted and worked for. reporters who spent the last four years pushing anyone creasing hysteria for media censorship so it's not as if they can stand on principle and demand openness now. they wanted fascism and they got it. still, you would think someone at nbc might laugh when mayorkas cited covid. covid, really? isn't this the same guy who has been releasing illegal migrants into our country without even testing them for coronavirus? yes, it is. watch. >> there were times earlier when individuals were apprehended and we sought to expel them and we were unable to expel them and we were compelled to release them and we did not have the opportunity to test them. >> tucker: somehow nobody in the press corps thought to note the irony of that. the guy who is releasing migrants illegally into our country without even testing

them for covid is using covid as a pretext for keeping the press from knowing what they are actually doing. no one mentioned it. nor is anyone in washington yelling about kids in cages anymore. remember kids in cages? for a long time it was all they could talk about. >> i'm going to immediately, without exception, close down every one of those cages and camps where they have because, guess what? people were still showing up before. [applause] they don't have to be put in cages or separated from their mothers. >> comprehensive immigration reform with a pathway towards citizenship on first day one get those babies out of those cages. >> we're not going to lock any families. we're not going to separate families. we're not going to put any kids in cages. >> they have had a policy of having babies in cages and separating children from their parents in the name of border security. whether, in fact, what it is is a human rights abuse being committed by the united states

government. >> i don't believe we are a nation that puts kids in cages and thinks it's okay. >> tucker: kids in cages. they wrote the talking point and they just kept real estate beating it as always. it was the ultimate civil rights atrocity. so you have got to ask. how are those kids doing under the joe biden administration? we can't answer that question with any certainty because as we just told you they are blocking our cameras. we are not allowed to see what they don't want us to see. thanks to democratic congressman henry kay are a a surprising hero in this story we do have a few photographs of detention facilities taken from the inside. you can't see cages, exactly. but there are a lot of young people living in what appear to be cellophane cells. is that an improvement? hard to see how it is. joe biden doesn't seem interested either way. yesterday he suggests he will get to the border at some point. >> are you thinking of going to the border? >> at some point i will, yes. >> do you want to see firsthand what's going on in those facilities?

>> i know what's going on in those facilities. >> tucker: yeah. like he does. nancy pelosi isn't secureying down to south texas, either. she doesn't need to. she already knows how great illegal immigrants are. they work in her vineyard in napa. they work cheap and good people and far better people than you are. keep that in mind. >> when they come here with their hopes and dreams and aspirations these parents bringing their children, their hopes and dreams and aspirations for a better future for their children. that courage, that determination, those aspirations are american traits and they all make america more american with all of that. and indeed they are true and legitimate heirs, these dreamers are of our founders. >> tucker: if you set up a system where people don't get to run stuff until they are really old, so rich they have no connection to the country itself, they have been living in complete isolation in decades, a

system like that produces people like the one you just saw who say things like that. foreign national hots break our laws are the quote triewnd legitimate heirs of america. in other words, it's not your country, it's theirs. and why wouldn't she feel that way? migrants work cheap. they don't complain or form unions or go on disability or celebrate all those stupid holidays like you do. they are grateful for the chance not to live in honduras. and that's why people like nancy pelosi love them. and it's not just nancy pelosi we're sad to tell you. it's not just democrats. we told you last week about a bill called the farm workforce modernization act. it would give amnesty to at least 1 million immigrants who are here illegally as long as they can prove that they have worked in agriculture for just 180 days over the previous two years. it's absurd. that's the price of citizenship, 180 days working in agriculture. it's gotten cheaper over time. the amazing thing is a total of 30 house republicans voted for that bill. why did they do that? you know why.

lobbyists for cheap labor got to them. that's just one amnesty bill that republicans are backing. yet another introduced by freshman republican salazar a favorite of kevin mckathy would provide daca recipients with, quote, immediate legal status and pathway to citizenship. over in florida rick scott preparing a bill to give millions here illegally amnesty and work permits. for the people getting those benefits, this is very good news. good for them. but how does it help you and your neighbors as the country that we grew up in teeters on its foundation? no one seems even to be asking that question because nobody cares. tonight we will ask it. joining us first is sager of the hill newspaper we are happy to have him on tonight. sager, thanks for coming on. we have had a system for over a century where people come to work in the ag sector. they don't get citizenship.

they don't get voting rights. they don't become americans unless they go through the process that everyone else does. what is the idea that suddenly now we have to give citizenship to people who didn't go through the legal process? >> well, tucker, the idea is exactly what you hit on, which is democrats and republicans have been ignoring this problem and this crisis now for over two decades. the reason why is because both are largely in the pocket of big business who like having cheap labor and produce goods which are not passed down in the form of wages to average american workers but, as you said, to good hard-working people. i don't blame them for coming here. the real issue here is that the media treatment and many of these democrats including joe biden, is how they use these children as pawns. that is really the thing that bothers me the most. which is that legitimate activists knew that many of these children and can you go and ask any border patrol agent they will tell you this are being sex equally abused on this journey. what the biden administration has done by reversing trump's

remain in mexico policy is openly invite poor parents all across central america to sell their children to human traffickers, the huffington post in 2018 said 80% of those girls and women were raped on the journey. a border patrol agent in the 2018 crisis discussed how a young woman, a girl as young as 12 was given plan b by her parents on her way here to the united states because her parents expected her to be raped on that journey. that's what these people are encouraging by reversing the policies that we have seen and by encouraging this flood at the border. >> tucker: in a democracy the number of people that live in a country matters. if you invite millions of new people you dilute the political power the vote of the people who already live there so actually this is an attack on the political power of americans. why does nobody say that? why do we sit passively back while they change the country forever and disenfranchise us?

>> largely it's because of these economic interests, which is that they don't -- they want to use identity politics in order to smear anybody who discusses the relationship between wages and immigration as an outright racist. these are things that americans intrinsically know. you can go to any low income community across the united states and ask them are you in competition with labor to illegal immigrants? and many of them know exactly what the answer to that question is. yes. they are smeared as long as with others who bring up this issue in the public discourse. and it's weaponized intentionally on behalf of so many of the rich and powerful who benefit from this economic system. >> tucker: the best explanation i have heard ever and i appreciate it. sag garr enjeti, good to see you don't. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: as we said, when you change the population of a country you change the balance of political power. and that was particular consequences for african-americans.

nobody wants to talk about this, but it is actually a topic of conversation in some black media. huge number of migrants keep wages low. the question of political power arises. just look how important the hispanic vote is compared to the black vote in certain swing states. this is an axle already rating trend and certain point maybe not so distant in the future black political power will be gone. candace owens has thought a lot about this. one of the few people who talks about it openly the host of candace and we are happy to have her on tonight. candace owens, thanks so much for coming on. you are, i don't know, sheila jackson lee and you call yourself an african-american leader and you are encouraging millions of foreign nationals to come to the country, you are basically reducing your own power and the power of your voters, i mean, over like the next 10 years soon. why does no one mention that. >> i mentioned it for the last four years. i sounded like a broken record.

i have been warning black america this was what was going to happen if the democrats assumed power that our vote was not even going to become a topic of debate much longer because they would flood in illegal immigrants. that's exactly what they are doing, tucker. it's sad to see. i mean, i didn't have a crystal ball and i will say this let's stop calling a border crisis. i was able to predict this because this is a border plan. this is what the democrats want to happen. this is why they are not answering any of the questions that you have tonight because they want to import these illegals. they see them as their next victim voters. what i mean when i say victim voters is they will implement the same plans they have executed successfully on black america for the last six decades. what comes next illegal immigrants? free stuff. free, free, free. free healthcare, tucker. free hotel rooms, more free stuff to make sure that i, the democrat that i want you to vote for forever stays in power. vote for me and i will give you more free stuff and it will keep going on and on like this until they wake up and realize their lives are not getting better. black americans are just about starting to wake up to

conservative principles and realizing that their lives have not gotten better under democrat policies and what happened? it doesn't matter anymore, tucker they are importing a new block of voter and those voters are hispanic illegal immigrants come across the border. >> tucker: so i mean if you are -- so nicely put. if you are maxine watts, you have just completely betrayed the community you claim to represent. completely. how -- are people starting to figure this out? are her voters starting to figure out wait a second? it's over? >> exactly. well, maxine waters doesn't care. she lives in a 6-million-dollar home outside of her own district. she has done her job. this is what she sold out black america for. and this is what sheila jackson sold black america for. al sharpton and jesse jackson. they got paid. never about america. puppet masters black ares remain allegiant to a party that does not help them. >> tucker: no wonder they want to make you be quiet. candace owens, great to see you

don't, thank you. well, south dakota governor kristi noem has decided to effective live veto a bill that would have wanted biological men a from participating in girls' sports. we are going to ask her why she did that after the break. ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ >> tucker: there has been a big push nationally by the administration squarely behind it to allow biological males to compete in girls sports. we have covered it extensively on this show. it's very unpopular with the public. it's particularly unpopular in the state of south dakota. south dakota is one of the most republican states in the country. republicans essentially control the entire state. so republicans in the legislature there recently passed a bill to prevent this from happening. prevent biological men from playing on women's sports teams. and the governor of south dakota, kristi noem, who you doubtless have seen said she was quote excited to sign it. now she has changed her mind. governor noem joins us tonight to explain why she has. governor, thanks so much for coming on. i appreciate it. so, hear you have this bill, which i think all polling shows is popular your state. i think would be popular nationally. you were excited to sign it. big business interseeds ncaa,

chamber of commerce and amazon and tell you not to sign it and you change your mind. i think a lot of our viewers are wondering your thinking on this and how exactly this happened. >> well, that's not true, tucker. and thank you for inviting me to be on this show tonight. >> tucker: ,. >> i could sign the bill the way that it is today. and then also but it wouldn't solve the problem. that's the real issue. as i looked at the bill and examined it and have been discussing with legal scholars for many months on how to protect women's sports, this bill would only allow the ncaa to bully south dakota. it would actually prevent women from being able to participate in collegiate sports. so what i have done is i have asked the legislature through a style and reform. >> tucker: i'm sorry to interrupts for our viewers, i'm sorry, back up for our viewers who haven't followed this as closely, how would this bill prevent women from playing in south dakota? if you would? >> because what it would do is

it would put a law on the books that would allow the ncaa to take punitive action against our state and we are a small state, tucker. we have had to fight hard to get any tournaments to come to south dakota. when they took punitive action against us we would have to litigate and legal scholars that i have been consulting with for many, many months say i would very likely lose those litigation efforts. >> tucker: so you are saying just to be fair it's not the bill. >> many times over and over again. >> tucker: wait, wait. so you are saying the ncaa threatened you and you don't think you can win that fight, they said if you sign this we won't allow girls in south dakota to play and you don't think you can win in court even though the public overwhelmingly supports you nationally and be so you are caving to the ncaa? i think that's what you are saying? >> no. that's not right at all, tucker. in fact, you are wrong, completely. i have been working on their. >> tucker: tell me for years. >> several years ago i fought usda to make sure that 4-h rodeo

and the sport of rodeo could keep girls events girls events and boys events boys events. i have been working on this for many, many years. back since november i have been consulting with legal scholars and professors across the country asking them how do i protect women's sports. and they have gone through the steps to how i would legally challenge the ncaa and keep them from bullying the state of south dakota and what they have told me to do is that i need to build a coalition. so that's why today i launched the defend title 9 now.com. that's going to allow us to build a coalition of states that can fight the ncaa. listen, i'm sick and tired of the ncaa threatening states, challenging us and bullying us. so we are going to build a coalition of leaders, athletes and people who want to protect women's sports and want to make sure that our women keep title 9 in place to protect their right to be competitive and to be rewarded by participating in these team sports and make sure this coalition can fight the ncaa to make sure we are

protecting title ix. >> these standards far predate title ix i'm not sure why it's relevant or worth defending. this is thousands years years of common sense and tradition. boys play boys sports and girls play girls sports. bring it on ncaa. i'm a national figure and try to exclude us. i will fight you in the court of public opinion and defend principle. why not just do that? >> tucker, you are preaching my sermon. that's what i did today. today i with herschel walker. >> tucker: you vetoed the bill. >> nancy lops i did not veto the bill i asked the legislature to change it so can i win. listen, i'm not interested in participation trophy. i'm not interested in picking a fight that we can't win. i am a problem-solver. i come to the table and i don't want to have talking points. and i have been bullied for the last year by liberals, tucker. i'm not going to let anybody from the ncaa, from any big business, i'm not even going to

let conservatives on the right bully me. i'm going to solve the problem. i'm going to make sure that we are building strength in numbers and we are going after the ncaa and make sure that we are keeping only girls playing in girls sports. i have been doing this for years and i'm going to solve the problem not just pick a fight to pick a fight. >> tucker: well, but the legislature, you are saying, was just picking a fight to pick a fight. i thought they were trying to codify what the majority. >> right. >> tucker: of your citizens want which is girls sports for girls and girls and boys for boys. here the ncaa comes in and says if you do that you are going to lose a court battle and so you say well the bill can't go forward. you have a democratic process that arose from your own citizens. they want this bill and have you stopped it. so i am not really sure how this is defending women's sports with respect. >> the bill, tucker, tucker, the bill that my legislature gave me is a trial lawyer's cream. it creates more and more litigation and regulation that's impossible to comply with for families and for school districts and people going forward. what i'm interested in doing is

making sure we are protecting girls sports and we are going forward to fight the ncaa. and what we're going to do as well is if they don't fix this through the style and form revision i'm going to ask them to introduce a new bill. if they don't could that, i will immediately bring them back into a special session and tell them we are going to protect girls sports k through 12 and then we are going to go and fight the ncaa through a coalition to make sure that we can continue to protect title ix and defend title ix. >> tucker: very quickly how would the bill as written make it harder as you just said make it harder for girls to compete. hard to comply with the title. what do you mean by those of us not following it closely specifically on that. >> well, did you read the bill or the style and form? message that i sent to the legislature? >> tucker: i did. >> what it said i asked for changes for the regulations and how kids would have to prove if they are boys and girls. i asked them not to open it up

to litigation. if a child doesn't make a team, they up to a year later can come back and sue every member of that team in the k-12 system and the entire school district as well and continue suing so that they have the opportunity to play. if we put the collegiate athletics on there, then we will get punitively challenged by the ncaa and then we will have to continue to fight them and a court district that is not friendly to winning. that's what the legal scholars have told me for many, many months my chances of winning in court are very, very low. my chances of winning this, as you have stated, in the public opinion, is extremely, extremely successful. so that's why i'm building this coalition to make sure we are taking our argument to the public and we're going to tell the ncaa that this coalition will fight to make sure we are protecting women's sports. >> tucker: i appreciate your coming on tonight. governor kristi noem of south dakota. thank you. >> thank you, tucker.

aliens are real, alright. there's just too much evidence. kill weeds not the lawn with roundup for lawns products. >> tucker: questions about vaccines are typically presented by the usual liars binary debate between people who are for science and vaccines and crazy people anti-vaxers who live in the woods somewhere who hate science. but that's not really the debate in real life. most people are grateful for

vaccines. have you heard anybody argue against the polio vaccine or the small pox vaccine? vaccines have done incalculable amount to make our lives better and longer. people are for vaccines in this country. that doesn't people don't have questions about specific vaccines. they should. and there should be an open conversation about specific vaccines. why wouldn't there be? anyone who is trying to prevent that conversation should be suspect. a physician and long-time southern and adamant physician says it's the duty of americans to get vaccinated. he is raising a question should people who have already been and recently been infected with the virus get the vaccine? could it hurt them? he joins us to explain? doctor, thanks so much for coming on. i hope i have characterized your position fairly. you seem like you are very strongly in favor of vaccines but you have this question. if you could explain it to us. >> absolutely. tucker, thanks very much for having me on your program.

i am very stawrge supporter of this vaccine. i believe that operation warp speed frankly delivered to america in under a year the equivalent of putting a man on mars, frankly. and this vaccine is probably going to be the most powerful and effective vaccines we have ever made. just like any other medical therapy and treatment, it's not a one size fit all. and if we attempt to make one size fit all, we will almost certainly cause harm. so the alarm bells have been raised since this past summer and most recently as the pfizer vaccine achieved its eua i was in direct communication with dr. woodcock and dr. marx, dr. bill hoover at pfizer with the concern being, the concern as you mentioned is what we're doing here is an absolutely unprecedented vaccine campaign in the history of western sizzles. and that is that in the middle of an outbreak, literally, where millions of people, millions of americans, millions of people in

the world are already infected recently or currently. we're deploying a rack seen. and this, you know, this is, frankly, just one of the most dramatic differences between this vaccine campaign and any other. and i think that, you know, you don't have to really go to medical school, tucker, to understand that it is not a standard approach to vaccinate people who are already infected. now, you know, the cdc does say if you have a known infection you should wait for 90 days. i don't think that's a long enough period of time to wait. frankly, these folks are all naturally immunized anyway. frankly millions of people a symptomly infected people with mild symptoms. people nursing homes intellectual capacities eroded to a point they can't even explain their symptoms. so they have covid and they get a shot. and, you know, a few days later they develop hyper inflammatory reaction and calling this covid. i think it's a dramatic error on the part of our public health

officials to try to put this vaccine into one size fits all paradigm. and, you know, i have to tell you i'm personally very familiar with what happens and how harm is caused when the medical establishment and experts try to put a medical therapy or a medical treatment into a one size fits all type pattern, which is exactly what we are doing with this vaccine. so we're going to take this problem that we have with covid-19 pandemic, clean-up is that half a percent of the population is susceptible to dying and we are going to compound it by causing totally avoidable harm by vaccinating people who have already infected recently. i can tell you on social media platforms i have been on, tucker, the signal is almost deafening. the people having complications and adverse events are people who have been recently or currently or previously infected. i don't think we can ignore. this there are some very, very strong antidotal cases coming and i'm happy to talk to you

about these, but i believe that, you know, we can't trade efficacy, we can't trade safety for efficacy. so, in other words, yeah, this vaccine is going to be one of the most effective vaccines we have ever made. if you take that efficacy and say you know what we will sacrifice the lives of x numbers of americans unsuspecting and trusting i think you are doing a real disservice. i think it's a problem. >> tucker: well, it's definitely going to be a problem not just for the people who are harmed but also for the country that might lose faith in vaccines themselves. and i think you would agree that would be a tragedy. >> you know, tucker, i have been accused of trying to stoke vaccine hesitancy with this orientation i'm taking. right? this is absolutely incorrect. you know, i think we have to have faith and trust that americans are not stupid, right? if you level with people, if you decently explain to people what this vaccine is, how it works, right? and then you give them information about how to keep themselves safe. this is the solution. this is not vaccine hesitancy.

this said indicating people to understand that they could do something to keep themselves safe, you know. >> tucker: that's exactly right. i think you are an authoritarian voice on this. everything have you said is reasonable and thoughtful with the science and i appreciate you coming on tonight. i'm sure you will be attacked for it but thank you, doctor. >> my pleasure. >> tucker: so, one of the nation's largest health insurance providers recently forced its employees to take indoctrination in the openly racist critical race theory teaching that some races are better than others. it's amazing this is actually happening. but it is. in many countries including at cigna. we will tell you the details straight ahead. ♪ ♪
