tucker carlson is up ♪ ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." happy monday. joe biden may have lost a step along the way but his handlers work fast. within hours of the inauguration in january, biden's white house opened america's borders to thef world not simply to job seekers and gang members from mexico and central america but to varieties of illegal migrants from all over the globe, africa and asia, the middle east. virtually anyone who could get to mexico was and is admitted into the united states without a visa.ic

in some cases, foreign nationals whose identities we cannot verify were flown to the interior of our country and permanently resettled without the permission of the people who already live there, americans. how did migrants get from congo to lewiston, maine, and why? well, because susan rice and ideologues like her want to change demographics as well as the population mix and every other state in the union. the administration is working to do that by fiat without a vote p in congress, without public consent of any kind. by definition this is the most radical possible attack on the core premise of democracy. which is that citizens get to run their own countries. not foreigners, citizens. the leaders of the democratic party no longer believe in democracy is constituted and they definitely don't plan to lose another election. as the rest of us go about our lives, they are reporting huge numbers of new voters into the united states. when you say this out loud, they become absolutely hysterical and call you names. but they do that only because

it's so obviously true. unfortunately for susan rice, this is one change in the country that's pretty hard to hide. if you live within 100 miles of the mexican border, for examplee you watch it happen in real-time. on the border, the rule of law has been suspended. the american system of order and decency and fairness is being mocked and destroyed by the very people in charge of sustaining it. you don't have to be a conservative republican to be deeply offended by what's going on. last november in texas, many thousands of lifelong democrats with mexican last names voted for donald trump. why? n because they knew part of a well what the left plan to do to the border, they were right. they are patriotic americans. they didn't want to see their country destroyed. so for the joe biden administration, this a potentially various serious political problem. most people no matter what color they are or who they vote for think joe biden's current

immigration policie is lunacy because it is. opening the border is the single most unpopular thing the white house has done so far bybp far. biden's handlers understand this could be a disaster for them. so this week they dispatched kamala harris to central america with orders to pretend she's trying to fix it. harris, you may remember, the shallow political opportunist from canada. h we are often told some kind of civil rights hero or moral leader. harris flew to guatemala to unveil her policy. what is it? in a word the plan is bribery. the administration plans to spend billions of dollars to pay latin america's poor not to move to the idea states.d cnn loves the idea. it blames america. kamala harris' visit to central america signals a new chapter. the channel slobbered in a headline this morning. there's nothing new about this. we have seen this cartoon before.ce six years ago as barack obama's vice president, joe biden announced what he called a plan for central america in "the new york times."

the idea at the time is the idea now. once we send billions to corrupt foreign governments,s, their citizens will stop showing up in texas and california. we tried it. how did it work? let's see. more people from central america coming over our border illegally than at any time in decades, possibly ever. a didn't work very well. that's obvious to everyone but joe biden who doesn't seem to have noticed.ad in april, he told congress that his plan was of brilliantbi success. >> when i was vice president, the president asked me to focus on providing the help needed to address the root causes of migration. it helped keep people in their own countries instead of beinges forced to leave. the plan was working. but the last administration decided it was not worth it. i am restoring the program and asked vice president harris to lead our diplomatic effort to take care of it.trci i have absolute confidence. >> tucker: the last administration. okay, got it. the sentence to pay attention to is the claim the people from central america are "forced to come here."

who are they forced to come here by? by us, of course. we are not keeping up with our bribes to the drug traffickersre who run honduras how it's our fault. better restart the payments immediately. that's alive. foreign aid almost never accomplishes what we pretend it will for the people for whom it's intended. if you think otherwise, how about expanding africa? for more than 50 years, the west, the u.s. in particular has bombarded that condiment with taxpayer and ngo money as well as all the stupid and very patronizing assumptions that a company that money and the result, is there a single african country that's better off for it? less corrupt and more self-sufficient? take an hour to to check that sometime. if you have the time. it's hard to find a single country. foreign aid projects are where liberal arrogance goes to die. they almost never work for the people they are supposed to work for. sorry, they don't. it sounds like they would but

they don't. yesterday even "the new york times" conceded its true. for example, over the past ten years guatemala alone has received more than a billion and a half dollars from u.s. aid. what's a result of it? a small country. poverty and malnutrition have risen to unprecedented levels. really? are you surprised? when was the last time welfare made someone stronger or happier? p the same is true with countries. if anything, joe biden's aid package encouraged illegal migration to the united states. michael clemens, fellow at the center for global development, studied the data and found "foreign aid focused on economic development is actually associated with increases in immigration from poor countries." but of course that's true. the only surprise is that we would be surprised. healthy places are, by definition, self-sufficient places. dependence by contrast, reads misery. that's always true. misery causes people to flee, and they have. harris is no genius, obviously, but even she must senses. she knows more bribes won't work. instead of defending her plan of the specifics, she's taking a

much easier and far more familiar road, more babbling about racism and sexism and of course climate change. >> there are also long-standing issues that are often called the root causes of emigration. we are looking at the issue of poverty and the lack of economic opportunity, the issue of extreme weather conditions and the lack of climate adaptations as well as corruption and the lack of good governance. and violence against women, indigenous people, lgbtq people and afro descendants. >> tucker: [laughs] often called the root causes of immigration.

by whom? no honest person. quick, harris, name three global problems of any kind not caused by racism and sexism in climate change. and whose solutions don't make you more powerful because that's always the acid test. does the solution cost you or does it help you?? if it helps you everything will time, maybe it's not really a solution. so what's the answer? just kidding. trick question.in obviously there aren't any global problems that aren't associated with racism and sexism in global climate changen and that don't require kamala harris to become a lot a more powerful.ma the funny thing is, and it is funny, no one has told central americans this. they think they're coming to brownsville precisely because, harris is the vice president. >> increased border crossings. the change of administrations. >> the message changed we are going to reunite families and

children. the very next day the coyotes were here organizing groups of children to take them to the united states. we ask the united states government to send more of a clear message to prevent more people from leaving. >> tucker: oh, so they're not coming here because of sexism. in latin america they kind of like the patriarchy. sorry, kamala harris. they're not coming here because they're fleeing culture they don't like. it's their culture. they are coming here because it's a much richer and much more generous country and how they can come here. so why wouldn't they. it's not their fault. it's ours. if you really want to solve the problem, the answer is pretty simple. you would deport people here illegally. that's what normal countries do. how much time does mexico or p israel spend blaming itself or people who break their loss? not a lot of time actually. not one second.

they deport people who do that. if we do that would get the world's attention immediately because the truth is many of these countries need illegal immigrants in our country in order tout continue. that's how unhealthy the economics are. as of 2019, remittances from immigrants to the united states accounted for fully 20% of el salvador's entire gdp. is that healthy? should we continue that? don't we want an independent el salvador they can feed itself? clearly we don't care. the same was true essentially in honduras and guatemala.. according to a recent piece that moved on the ap wire "so many guatemalans have left that much of the country survives on remittances they sent home." once again, if you cared about guatemala, you would try to make guatemala independent. it wouldn't make it yet another third world countries dependent on ngo and foreign aid money. that's a horrible thing to do. same story in mexico.

in 2018, the then presidential candidate admitted "these remittances are the main income that this country has. more than oil, more than tourism." is that what we want for mexico. if you cared about mexico, would you want that? no. it's degrading it might be part of the reason mexico is a disaster in the middle of a drug or ongoing for ten years. kamala harris doesn't care. so her solution is the same solution: give more money to the narco states, to honduras for the president is under a dea investigation for drug trafficking. >> we are launching our call to action for businesses to invest in the northern triangle.. i believe that the businesses in the private business sector have a significant role to play inou creating jobs and promoting economic opportunity and long-term development. i am proud that we have

companies already in the united states who have committed to act. we have mastercard, who intends to partner across sectors to bring 5 million people in thee region into the digital economy and to support 1 million small businesses. >> tucker: [laughs] this is hilarious. only because no one on the left talks about economics or understands economics. it's not even mentioned anymore. it's all race and gender. underlying all of this is economics. what, harris is saying is that big u.s. companies are "ready to act selflessly," of course to get more cheap labor in the third world. they are ready to act. even as our own labor market does things that no healthy market would do.ld unemployment is going up, even as businesses can't find labor to fill open jobs. something very ominous is happening in our labor markets that's being ignored so we can help honduras' labor market on behalf of el salvador and by the

way, send more money to governments that don't deserve it, that are corrupt and don't serve their own people in the hope they'll stop invading us but they'll invade us anyway because it's been going on for ten years. who benefits from these arrangements? a lot of people, but not you, that's for sure. candace owens is the host of "candace," we are always happy to have her on the show. candace owens, thanks much for coming on today. i used to think that all of these arrangements were american guilt that help the countries from which these immigrants were coming. now i think el salvador and guatemala don't benefit. the u.s. certainly doesn't benefit so who is the beneficiary? >> absolutely the politicians that want to get them into that they can change the demographics and get votes. actually i interviewed a month and a half ago and illegal immigrant actually on a path to citizenship thanks to marriage and they were very honest with me and said that during the journey, they came fromth

guatemala, it was more harrowing to go through mexico because the mexico police kept trying to stop the flow. once you get to america, essentially it's a finish line. it's so organized and so systemic. for those individuals entered into california, as soon as you get into america an suv is waiting. took her to a location, house, a safe house. a bunch of americans come and transport the illegal immigrants to various states. she entered through california and hundred 50 were broken up into three states. texas, tennessee, virginia. she went to virginia and her friends went to texas and tennessee. that's a fascinating, crucial piece. she entered this country ten years ago. since then virginia has gone blue. we know the biden administration is having trains enteringnt chattanooga that's made the news filled with illegal immigrants in the middle the night. what's going on?

it's just and just begin biden and kamala got into office. when trump got into office ande started talking about stopping the flow, they got upset and angry because there's been something going on in terms of trafficking over the border to change demographics of the country for a long time. it's not a conspiracy theory. it's the truth and i'm happy that you're talking about it because at the end of the day wo know that, harris, they are not concerned about fixing the crisis. they are concerned about accelerating plan, plan that went into motion a very long time ago.ix americans need to wake up because you are correct. it's an invasion. >> tucker: nothing truer than what you just said and it hasn't written political role, nothing to do with human rights or racial diversity or ending sexism. it's all a diversion. it's about changing the political balance of the country and it's been going on a long time and they get hysterical because it's absolutely true, and in their lucid moments they brag about it.

they don't hide it, do they? >> they get hysterical becauseru they don't want people to look into what we are talking about. i'm a black american. i'm not trying to have this discussion because i don't want more brown people in the country. i don't care about brown people coming to the country.ve in fact, you want more brown people in the country, why don't we get more legal immigrants from africa.a. they represent 2% of immigrants coming in.hy it's not about brown people or a fear of brown people.. it's about me not wanting the system to be crippled by illegat immigration when we know that in the end that all they want to dr is to get a ton of them in here and then to say make an application and a case that for all of them to receive green w cards. that's what we saw this week and the supreme court, which i'm glad they shot down the effort to try to legalize 400,000 illegal immigrants that are this country right now. this is what's actually happening.iz democrats are after changing demographics so they can guarantee power because theirt' policies no longer work, and inner cities are being corrupted and what's interesting to me is that they are being taken into

what is normally a conservative zone, a conservative state. that's interesting to me. >> tucker: interesting. texas, tennessee, virginia. wake up, greg abbott. i appreciate you and how lucid your explanation was. the city of chicago, one of the great american cities, third biggest, has embraced community oriented policing. how is that working out for the city of chicago?gg we have some video that shows. bill melugin has it for us.. >> good to see you. no sugarcoating this one, the video is not a good look for the police. chicago pd has launched an investigation after a now viral video that surfaced online appearing to show several women twerking on top of him moving chicago police cruiser. take a look at this. so not exactly the kind of community involvement the city likely had in mind. this video already has more than 700,000 views online, as you can

see. it shows several women in twerking on top of that police suv. one woman on the roof. a couple more on the hood. while of course a crowd ofer onlookers shooting the whole thing on their iphones and live streaming it as well. the cruiser is marked with chicago police. it looks like there were cops inside of it and it continued driving slowly as the women keep dancing on it. there was one person in thee crowd with -- it's unclear when and where that video shot. as for chicago pd, you're seene the video again right there. they are telling us that they are aware of this video. they are investigating it, they think there's going to be consequences for any officers who acted inappropriately. of course this coming just days after the department announced they want to focus more on community oriented policing. all of this of course happening in the context that there is near constant violence in the city of chicago taking place everything a week. this past weekend, one of the most violent so far. 58 people were shocked. that includes an 11-year-old girl who was shot in her back.

five people were killed since friday alone. tucker, sending it back to you. >> tucker: beyond belief. bill melugin come appreciate it. whatever you're doing running american cities, running america isn't working for everyone. people twerking on top of police cars. maybe the people in charge aren't very good at so what happens next. why wouldn't there be a real backlash against it. like a real backlash against this? if it continues, there will be. who knows what that will look like. sandy cortez recently complained on social media that her grandmother isn't getting enough aid in puerto rico. so a frequent guest on this program, matt walsh, decided to help. he raised a huge amount of moneu for sandy cortez's grandmother. we'll tell you what happenedis next. plus a lot of talk about racism in america. there's a lot of it but not the kind they tell you about. we are going to tell you what someone on an ivy league campus

reaching kind of a fever pitch. everything is racist. shakespeare is racist, ice cream trucks are racist. dr. seuss is racist. none of its racist. systemic racism controls the country. no one can define it. it's not real but the irony is that the very moment we are searching for racism under every bed, there is actual racism all around us. it's loud and it's aggressive, sometimes it's violent and yet nobody mentions it. it's everywhere. do you dare speak its name? we are going to lead a shrink and a lecturer at the yale school of medicine illustrate what we are talking about. her name is aruna khilanani. she spoke at length about her fantasies about murdering white people. watch this. >> loading a revolver. into the head of any person that got in my way. wiping my bloody hands as i walk away. what if i do the world a favor? psychological predicament.

once people feel we are blaming them. that they should -- we should be thanking them for all they've done for us. asking a demented, violent society. accepting responsibility, it ain't going to happen. >> tucker: we have that video thanks to barry weiss who left "the new york times." an astonishing amount of actual journalism, scoop after scoop after scoop but what's amazing is in a normal country, almost any other country. he would say that and you would say that person should not be treating patience, that person is dangerous and scary and mentally unbalanced. does that person have a licenseu to treat patience? that wasn't the reaction at all.

she fantasized about murdering people of a certain color. several attendees who watched the lecture wrote comments praising her online. what the hell is going on and what are the gloves with his going to be if this continues? it's scary. bob woodson is a civil-rights writer.er we are happy to have them on. thank you for coming on. i am getting worried about the consequent as of that, the backlash against it, what it's going to do the country if it continues unimpeded and i'm baffled by the fact that no one ever notice this out loud. it's happening right in front of us. why are we pretending it's not? >> you're right. january 30th, 1956, dr. king's house in montgomery was bombed.y his wife and small child barely got out alive. and dr. king in an active profound grace cautioned.nd 200 armed black man, he cautioned them and refused to engage in retaliatory violence.

this woman engaged in what i call radical disgrace. what she is doing, there's already people taking action. there was a 300-pound black man in seattle, washington, who savagely beat the 57-year-old white woman at the gas pump. outside of san francisco yesterday, a 21-year-old hispanic woman savagely beat a 67-year-old white woman while saying "your privilege." this is how far. there's a conspiracy of silence on the part of the civil rights leadership, the congressional black caucus, kamala harris. all these people are silent. they sanction with their silence. even the president keeps up this mantra about racism. even celebrating the anniversary of d-day.

he couldn't find it himself to talk about the thousands of americans who died in the invasion of normandy. but he could talk about 300 blacks who were slaughtered in oklahoma. that's the kind of moral inconsistency, tucker, and it's really troubling and it could destroy this country. what happens of people began to get the word and start retaliating? and attacking blacks because of their color? >> tucker: exactly! unless people, actual moral leaders stand up and say b unequivocally all lives matter and we are all created equal and racism of any kind is wrong and we are going to be down a dark road and soon if someone doesn't say that. i think we should be worried about that now. mr. woodson, i appreciate. >> we are trying to do our best. >> tucker: i know you are. thank you. thank you for reminding us that. robert woodson, appreciate it. the conservative movement has changed dramatically in the last years.s.

it's changing still. charlie kirk has been in it since he was 18, one of the biggest conservative leaders in the country now in his viewsti have changed completely about what the republican party ought to be doing. if you haven't heard from charlie kirk recently, what heom thinks now is worth listening to.. you'll hear it next.t. ♪ ♪

>> tucker: when democrats took control of congress this year after the debacle in georgia made possible by a lot of strategy. some people worried that they would do radical things and mosc people were right. democrats pushed h.r. 1. it's the first thing they pushed. an act entitled the "for the people" act. a stalinist name. it's 800 pages long. it's got one purpose. ensuring permanent rule by the democratic party over the whole. country. that legislation mandates

nationwide mail-in balloting and ballot harvesting by political partisans. it erases all state oversight of election. in effect, it legalizes voter fraud. democrats knew that no republican would support it, even liberal ones. so to get it passed, they needed to abolish the filibuster. to abolish the filibuster they had to rebrand it as, can you guess, an instrument of white supremacy. it didn't matter democrats had used the filibuster 300 times last year. it's in their way now, therefore its white supremacy. on sunday, one democratic senator, joe manchin of west virginia, stopped that plad in its tracks. they need his vote and they're not getting it. in an op-ed, manchin announced he would not vote for h.r. 1 or support getting rid of the filibuster and when he made a central point, democracy is incompatible with one partyti rule. the two don't go together.

if you believe in democracy you need a multiparty democracy. "i believe that partisan voting legislation destroys the already weakening binds of our democracy." because he's right. of course it will. can you guess what happened next? it turns out joe manchin, just like the filibuster, just like shakespeare and ice cream, is racist.es at a ludicrous magazine calledce "the atlantic," someone called jamele hill wrote "record numbers of black voters show up to save this democracy only for white supremacy to be upheld by a cowardly, power-hungry white dude." yeah, he's white, so he's bad. this is the level of public discourse. arizona senator kyrsten sinema also came out in favor of keeping the filibuster, so she must be a racist also. >> let's be honest and tell the truth about what happening in this country.so don't hide behind the filibuster. say what you've got to say,

brother and sister, do it. say i don't want to do it. i don't want to do this because i think that black and brown people's votes should be restricted in the future, just say it. don't hide behind the filibuster. two democrats, senators joe manchin and kyrsten sinema are standing in the way of that. >> tucker: so they are racist because they want to get the filibuster, which democrats used 300 times last year. that's the level. these people will say anything. they are not even ideologues. the pure partisans. anything standing in the way of their party getting power, they will deny as racist and they control a lot of people, because people are terrified of being calleduee that. you wonder how long joe manchin or kyrsten sinema can stay in that party when they are denounced as bigots for upholding a standard that was valid last year. he wonder how long. it's not a partisan point. it's a sincere question. how long? do you have dignity or self-respect? well, charlie kirk is a name you may be familiar with.ho he's probably the biggest organizer of conservatives,

certainly conservative young people, in the country. he's young himself. spent practically ten yearsse running something called turning point, he's the cofounder, turning point usa. what's interesting is that his views of what the republican party is and should do and what conservatism stands for have changed completely. he thought a lot about it and it's worth hearing his conclusions. we talked to him at great length in the latest episode of "tucker carlson today." here's part of the conversation. ♪ ♪ >> the people that dominated the conversation now that i have realized were either heavilyly influenced by corporate america that wanted the conservativee movement to just revert to abstractions and ideology for the lack of interference from the state towards their kind of corporate tyranny which i would love to explore with you. this kind of thought also lends itself towards not necessarily away from partisanship, but it gets towards a more nuanced and dare i say a more thoughtful,

conservative movement in the sense that we are unafraid to say you know what, maybe i agree with bernie sanders' immigration policy when he would talk about in 2004. may be mass immigration shouldn't be the most important thing that conservative should always stand for.en i believe, and russell kirk predicted this, that as soon as the soviet union fell, the conservative movement in america. he predicted this on most of the day. the berlin wall falls and this is what i call the four horsemen of the '90s and i was born in '93. all of this was happening while i had basically no say about it. wthe generation they did so we, the older baby boomers, and kind of the george h.w. bush, irving kristol generation, they were in the prime of their political careers.l, what did they decide to do as soon as the berlin wall fell? almost to the day, mass immigration in 1990.

george h.w. bush signed in this compromise with ted kennedy to bring in millions of people. unrestricted into our nation. this great bargain of cheap labor and cheap votes so both sides kind of got a win. 1994 bill clinton signs nafta because we decided it would be a good idea. 1999, when that might surprise people, as a conservative i think we should find disgusting, the repeal of glass-steagall. bill clinton went out of his way to pander to the financial services lobby that largely lead to cheap money and i think the blurring of commercial banking and investment banking. finally, china's entrance to the world trade organization in 2001. all four of those things i believe was the conservative movement are the people in charge chasing momentary pleasure and not preserving the good.vee

with no commitment to permanence. >> tucker: where do you think this is going? >> i try not to be solely in the predictive business. i can tell you i think it's going. here's the question, and i don't think anyone has really set it like this. 2016, was it a tremor, an earthquake, or an aftershock? was it something before something? when donald trump got elected i mean. was it an earthquake or was it an aftershock? i think it's a tremor. i think what we are living merough is a 10-year tremor of bigots about to happen. a tremor meaning something that happens before an earthquake. the geological explanation. i think that when historians write this they'll look at that as the beginning, not the event. a decade-long reckoning with this kind of pocket technology, surveillance state, corporate dominance, postmodern secularism. all these different factors. where's it going?

i don't know. but i do know that there is a restlessness among decent people of what to do next. where is my place in this world? do i have to always be a slaveha to these devices? so yeah, there's probably going to be a little bit of a people because of it. >> tucker: charlie kirk turns out to be a pretty deep guy actually. that conversation went on for a nearly an hour. he explained why guilt is the single driving force in modern american politics and that's not helpful for anyone. he says what the conservative movement and republican party should not do moving forward, worth hearing. it's on foxnation.com. so a bunch of big companies have adopted policies in the last f year to help businesses owned by people of a certain skin color, particular the food delivery businesses because no one in america has a historical memory. one attorney general is alive to the fact that this is illegal,

weird that it was left to you to help ocasio-cortez's grandmother. i don't know, a caped crusader for good, a white knight in this world. shouldn't aoc be a little ashamed of this? >> yeah, and look, i put my hat in the ring if anyone wants to nominate me for a nobel peace prize, i will accept it. doesn't mean anything anyways. might as well give it to me. it's interesting that she would leave her grandmother like that and the thing is, focused on the systemic problems in the government was supposed to solve a problem.e it does show that actually you don't have to wait around for the system to solve every problem.s, sometimes free individuals can just get together. this is a probably could've solved not just for abuela but they could have taken the money. and fixed the ceiling and bought her some furniture and they could've taken the rest of the money and help the neighbors. they could've helped the whole community with these funds. but they preferred not to dohe that.

>> tucker: starting to think maybe helping people isn't the point for ocasio-cortez. i am so glad you are able to talk about your philanthropy, your passion for helping.bl matt walsh, the great matt walsh, thank you. that's a good story. we didn't oversell it. "tucker carlson today" out on fox nation. back tomorrow night at 8:00. can't wait to see you then. here's sean hannity. >> sean: did you donate? >> tucker: of course i did, are you kidding. >> sean: just checking. no, i did not. welcome to "hannity." despite predictions from the mob, the media, life under the biden administration, president sippy cup, not all sunshine, cotton candy and rainbows aftere defunding the police, abolishing bail, america's biggest cities are suffering a wave of violent crime and utter chaos. in new york city, a 10-year-old was murdered this weekend in a senseless shooting over a parking spot.'s in midtown manhattan, man attempted to rape a woman on the sidewalk in broad daylight. in california, and amazon a
