he needs a vacation reduction act." very cute, vivian. also, "it's obvious like biden's presidential wall cost so much. look for the union label. even the unions don't gouge that much." "jesse got more last week than the united states." [laughs] >> secretary psaki: >> tucker: welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." imagine the pandemonium when tony fauci announced his retirement. ugly doesn't describe it. if you can, picture the chaos. the panic and hysteria that must have broken out at espresso bars
5:01 pm
in aspen, santa monica, bethesda, thousands of masked ladies and lululemon discovered all at once that the one religious leader that revered their even tinier version of the dalai lama has decided to retreat forever from public life, the equivalent of a targeted nuclear device detonated -- you can picture the carnage, the wailing, the smoothing, manicured hands fumbling for xanax and an expensive handbag. not since the orange man sees the white house with a russian coup then -- wept shamelessly in public. there's not enough rose in napa to quell that pain, and it's never supposed to be this way. a few months ago, he suggested to his followers that he would be around for at least another two years, which would be -- the
5:02 pm
highest paid federal employee -- and you know that meant, many more interviews on npr, tips on masking. is it three enough? of course, more vital guidance. thanksgiving this year -- dr. fauci will know. he is sitting masked at brian stelter's house. this morning, he announced his abdication. "i will be leaving these positions in december of this year to pursue my next chapter of my career." he's only 81! some of us thought he might be around another 40 years, but he is leaving too soon. what's going on? you think --
5:03 pm
is it possible that this nonpartisan man of medicine had thought about what would happen republican congress takes over? on some level, even he knows that he is a dangerous frog, a man who has done things that in most times in history would be understood perfectly clearly to be very serious crimes. you might have to resign before all that -- safe place to hide before the reckoning. there is a lot to answer for. and just the last few years, fauci's recommended treatments and preventative measures for covid not only didn't work, but that he knew didn't work, he admitted to "the new york times" that he lied about heard immunity -- about herd immunity,
5:04 pm
and that the vaccines -- but those did hurt a lot of people. then, he lied about the masks publicly. "where one is you are riding a bike, you are too much life enhancing oxygen. what you need is more carbon dioxide, be more like a tree." that's what he was saying in public, but in private he wrote "a typical masking buy in a drugstore is not effective in keeping out a virus." so he knew, as your kids were suffocating during gym, he knew. he also did not simply downplay and obfuscate this -- in conjunction with the chinese government. no, he covered up evidence that he helped create that virus in the first place. here he is last july testifying under oath before the congress. >> dr. fauci, knowing that it's a crime to lie to congress, do you wish to retract your statement of may 11th when you
5:05 pm
claimed that the nih never funded this research and move on? >> senator, i have never lied before the congress, and i do not retract that statement. this paper that you are referring to was judged by qualified staff up and down the chain as not being gained of function. >> let me finish. >> so you take an animal virus and -- you say that's not and a function? >> that's correct. and senator, you don't know what you are talking about, quite frankly. >> dr. fauci needs a doctor who is not a b.s. artist demands straightforward answers. tony fauci was lying in that clip, he knew he was lying. "scientists working under this
5:06 pm
grant to study coronavirus combines the genetic material from an apparent coronavirus with other viruses. "manufacturing powerful viruses." then, the intercept spoke to several virologists and found that "the work to appears -- appears to me at nih data for research. >> gain-of-function research. not allowed in this country. off shoring in their various labs. lot of biolab's in the ukraine. what was going on there? at some point, somebody is going to ignore the threat. "why did we have these bio labs in ukraine?" it's not like it is a hotbed of pharmaceutical research. the intercept spoke to a
5:07 pm
virologist -- a specialist of microbiology and immunology at columbia. "no question between -- weight loss of mice in the study and gain of function. tony fauci was wrong in saying that he knew." he was lying -- this is all becoming much clearer. this is not a right wing publication. it's a left-wing publication. at some point, all of this will become public. then, late last year, nih admitted to it and this official wrote that it "limited experiment had been conducted to test if spiked proteins could occur in back to viruses circling in china were capable of binding to the human receptor in a mouse model."
5:08 pm
frankenstein stuff. why were they doing this? oh, and they destroy the united states in the process. no one has ever admitted it, but we know that tony fauci knew what was going on, because he authorized the grant. as the pandemic spread around the world, virologists told tony fauci in real time that gain-of-function research funded in part by the u.s. government was probably involved. in early 2020, this virologist -- from california wrote this to fauci. some of the features potentially looked engineered. baltimore, he announced that he found the "smoking gun" for the virus, and found a "powerful challenge to the idea of a natural portion for sars-cov-2." 20 fauci saw that assessment right at the very beginning, and as a response, called an urgent meeting about the date of
5:09 pm
function research, and a scientist conducting that experiment in wuhan and the chinese military lab, so he knew at the very beginning, and a lot of people, and they all lied to us and are still lying to us, and not one person -- but in public, fauci refused to talk about gain-of-function research, talked about the arrest of those prominent critics. >> senator cruz told me that you should be prosecuted." [laughter] beco i have to laugh at that. [laughter] what happened on january 6th, senator? >> no, a sitting u.s. senator should be prosecuted for questions that i don't care answer -- for criminal behavior. by the way, january 6th! because ted cruz was inside the capital setting things on fire -- oh wait, he wasn't. so that was one of many very obvious displays of partisanship
5:10 pm
from a guy who is supposed to be a public health official. it is flat-out partisan. when tony fauci is willing to attack his critics, his political opponents like that, then lie about the origins of corona, it raises a lot of questions, and one of them is what else is tony fauci lying about? you might remember that back in 2020, he claimed that -- would be the solution to covid. "this will be the standard of care." when tony fauci said that --" but when he said that, he said that knowing that the food and drug administration did not hold a single advisory meeting on that drug. the low price of just $48,000 a dose, he promised that it could shorten your hospital stay if you were ever to get covid, like
5:11 pm
if your mask slipped. in months, the truth became impossible to hide, it doesn't work as advertised. "there is a conditional recommendation -- against it. this means there's not enough evidence to support --" oh, really? well, what happened in the meantime, they were a struggling company and made a ton of money. they all did. so to tony fauci's friends at pfizer and mulder no, as -- as he made -- the only solution to the vaccine, which is not actually a vaccine. >> yet again another boost, in this case, a fourth dose boost for an individual that will be receiving the mrna, and then, the issue of vaccines, at least with regard to sars-cov-2 --
5:12 pm
when people are vaccinatedted, y will feel safe that they aren't going to get infected. i think the idea of taking masks n my mind, is not something that we should be considering. it is, as we said --" -- code >> it is, as we said, the pandemic of the vaccinated and -- >> not just him, implicated we are not law enforcement agents. but, it is an indictment of our system, and the rest of us, certainly in the media, the guy in charge of this response could take so many things back-to-back, month to month, year after year, that turned out to be false, and he still has a job! it's like afghanistan! no one responsible for that -- they were elevated! that's not a partisan point, obviously.
5:13 pm
it's a question of the so-called vaccine -- the polio vaccine, the mumps vaccine. did you get smallpox last week, polio? no, but you probably got covid after you got the shot. tony fauci did. changed the line a little bit because he had covid! he got it! may become a covid vaccine does not prevent, doesn't actually work. tony fauci is thinking that at one point only, and that is that you need to give more power to the biden administration. here is tony fauci, explaining that his one regret during the pandemic is not eliminating every single last civil liberty in the country on behalf of joe biden. watch this. >> we know now, two and a half years later that anywhere from
5:14 pm
50-60% of the transmission occur from someone without symptoms. either someone who would never get symptoms, or someone who is in the presymptomatic stage. had we known that then, the insidious nature in the community would have been much more of an alarm, a stringent restriction. >> much more stringent... restrictions... i'm not sigmund freud, but if you don't know the sexual pleasures when he says that, you are blind to the obvious. but all of it is fake, totally fake, with the slot jones at john hopkins saying that lockdowns did not work. in late 2020 a group of epidemiologists said that they saw this coming and -- here is his boss, thoroughly
5:15 pm
discrediting and -- francis collins, the guy who convinced evangelicals -- that guy. here's how he responds. he wrote to fauci and email in october 2020. "this proposal seems to be getting a lot of tension, even the close signature, there needs to be a quick and devastating public takedown of this." why not assess it? scientists disagree with you. shouldn't you figure out why? just generate the lie machine, shut them down! throw them off social media, get the tech oligarchs. that's literally what they did. tony fauci himself made this argument himself. he must never be challenged, he
5:16 pm
is science incarnate >> big enough to criticize speeten, nobody will know what they are talking about, but if they really aim their bullets at tony fauci, they can really recognize that he's easy to criticize, but they are really criticizing science, because i represent science. if you are trying to get at me, you are really attacking not only dr. anthony fauci, but science, the bad guy to an entire subset of people. i remember something that was uncomfortable for them, more about truth. >> the only people that refer to themselves in public nonironically in the third person are fidel castro and mental patients that should have been a tip-off. i am science? settle down, megalomania man. this is nuts! and yet, it's not fauci that has
5:17 pm
been damaged by this behavior over years. the biden administration arrested one of his top critics, hauled him out of reagan airports. merrick garland also ruin the lives of several associates, but also lied to federal officials. regionally, biden's doj has been raiding the home of the former president for classified documents, including this rider- letter to barack obama. tony fauci, who apparently engineered the single most devastating event in modern american history, and then lied about it, gets to retire as a hero. again, just like the bureaucratic pentagon who -- destroying withdrawals in afghanistan that got american killed. no punishment. tony fauci gets to elect his enormous government retirement
5:18 pm
to lecture you from this stage on cnn very soon. what the republicans do about this when and if they take power in january? worked with tony fauci in the white house, a senior developer in health care policy. he joins us tonight. dr., pardon the overheated assessments, but it's frustrating to watch someone who, at the very least, has been wrong, and who's wrong statement has tremendous consequences, never even being asked about it. >> well, i will say, his legacy is presiding over the elitist debacle in public health history, because his recommendations -- there is the implementation of the lock down, school closures that he recommended failed by the date to stop the spread of the
5:19 pm
infection, to stop the known former bulls to dive from dying, and inflicted enormous harm, spare to the affluent and elite with a sacrifice for minorities and our children. the damage to our children is one of legacies, because those policies of masking, isolating, and quarantining healthy children introduced massive fear in them, damaged them to make them think everyone is a danger to them. we haven't even seen the tip of the iceberg of that damage, but we have seen skyrocketing self-harm visits by teenagers, suicidal ideation's, and under reported -- a surge in childhood obesity, learning losses, particularly among poor and low income families. he also presided over the nih's
5:20 pm
failure to conduct the necessary trials, already approved low-cost drugs, along with his friend and associate, francis collins, as you mention. the second big category of his legacy is the extraordinary distrust in the public of our public health agents. this is very harmful to the future crises, but also solutions themselves that we need to trust people into these radical proclamations. i saw personally his use of fear to sway the public. his own emails, as you pointed out, used to suffocate the free exchange of ideas. this is antithetical to science, and the unacceptable centralization of power from a 40 year bureaucrat, instead of
5:21 pm
just issuing recommendations, the bottom line is we need to eliminate the power of a corrupt, central bureaucrat, and restored -- in the public health. this is his legacy. >> thank you for making that point. you make it with greater credibility than anybody else. the institutions that we need have been greatly damaged. thank you. >> thank you. >> we have been covering the increase in crime around the country. it is not fake. it is real and measurable. in a moment, we will show you some of the horrifying footage from new york, and -- how has that happened? the lowest level since the 1930s, 90 years. we talked to the mayor and asked "how did you do that?" ♪ ♪
5:22 pm
5:23 pm
5:24 pm
to finally lose 80 pounds and keep it off with golo is amazing. i've been maintaining. the weight is gone and it's never coming back. with golo, i've not only kept off the weight but i'm happier, i'm healthier, and i have a new lease on life. golo is the only thing that will let you lose weight and keep it off. who loses 138 pounds in nine months? i did! golo's a lifestyle change and you make the change and it stays off. (soft music)
5:25 pm
5:26 pm
>> unfortunately, you can't have a real country without cities, whether you like them or not. you have to -- where the
5:27 pm
population is. unbelievably, where george floyd george floyd -- earlier new york, shoplifters were beaten here's siemens report. speak to nypd >> the end we played d -- looking for this woman who works at the store, she stepped in and then, it got violent. police say this crime happened august 14th around 3:30 in the afternoon, and after the assault -- with the merchandise. >> unbelievable. also in the bronx, 52-year-old man was brutally beaten, sucker punched on the street by a career violent felon. the assailant was then released from jail without bond.
5:28 pm
new york receive had just about enough of this, so the governor of new york was trying to get elected -- >> i took action into my own hands, directed the department of corrections and community service to immediately examine whether this parole violation occurred. it did on lifetime parole, and as of a couple of minutes ago, that person is now in custody at my direction. the people of new york need to know that as their governor, i will step up and protect them. >> is she actually fighting? he covers crime in new york, author of -- joining us tonight. thank you for coming on. so, seems very upset that there
5:29 pm
is crime in new york, and is looking to stop it. is that accurate? >> i would say that what she is telling us is we are lucky that victor fu raped someone three years ago and got lifetime parole. if he wasn't -- then wouldn't have been able to do anything and would be free because the judge, the district attorney in the bronx knocked down his charges to a misdemeanor, and according to the new bail walls in new york, you cannot be held for bail on that. >> has he ever criticized those laws -- have they ever criticized those laws? >> she has said that she thinks the prosecutors -- if she wasn't serious about it, she could do
5:30 pm
one of two things. she is the governor. she could go on the legislature to change the laws, lean on them, or -- remove -- who are not doing their job. she doesn't want to do either of those things. she will just make noise, like she is really on top of crime in new york. >> she is a joke, it's pretty transparent. is it obvious to new yorkers? >> it is. i don't want to say "i told you so," but i came on here a few years ago and told you that things were getting bad. seems like this in the dollar store. i don't know what they are getting paid -- fighting with criminals, but yes, everywhere
5:31 pm
you go, there's crazy people, violent people, and these are not crimes of poverty. nobody punches somebody on the subway for nothing. >> there is something deeper going on. thank you for all of the work you are doing. >> thank you. >> so what's happening in new york is happening in pretty much every big city. washington, chicago, and if there's one big city that is reporting a historic decrease in homicides -- really? how is that happening? the mayor of miami, florida, joins us to explain next.

5:37 pm
crime rate since the 1930s. that's when al capone was there. why? we are here with the mayor of miami. thank you for coming on. what exactly are you doing in miami that america -- >> i'm going to blow your mind away. we increased money for police. we have also lowered taxes to the lowest level in recorded history which has bumped it up to the second -- in recorded history. we are the happiest and healthiest city in america, low unemployment people are happy, healthy, working. that's been the miami miracle
5:38 pm
story which -- washington nightmare story that you have articulated tonight and over the last few weeks. >> there is this great video circulating around the internet of the riots in 2020. all of these cops -- we are not doing that here. did you ever have meaningful riots in miami? >> we didn't. we drew the line in the sand. not going to tolerate it in our city. that first night, we had some issues, but right away, it was clear that we weren't going to accept it, and whoever came in obviously realize that -- miami would not accept that kind of behavior.
5:39 pm
>> what is funny is that for a long time, probably after 1980 -- that tv show for "miami vice." is it that dangerous -- >> i was born and raised in miami. 300 plus homicides right now, and -- right now, we are at 28 today, so 300 plus to 28. we had to look back in our archives to see the last time -- it's a trusted and true formula for success. we keep people safe, and have this innovation for high-paying jobs. >> it's pretty incredible. murder is the one thing --
