5:00 pm
fruit? they are telling me in the control room tomatoes are fruit, i was told they are vegetables. i was also told i was younger than clay travis, i don't know what to believe. dvr the show with remote button. tucker is up next, i'm jesse watters and this is my world. ♪ >> good evening and welcome to tucker carlson, they accuse you the very thing they are doing themselves. if there is one rule you can keep on your fridge, write it down and put in your wallet to evaluate the behavior of the people in charge. that. they blame you for their sins every single time. latest example, we learned joe biden fresh from lecturing how donald trump is a criminal because he had unauthorized
5:01 pm
possession of secret documents, joe biden had himself unauthorized secret documents, don't worry, it is not a big deal. unlike you and donald trump, joe biden is a good person, so virtuous he's transcended law issue not a crime when he does it. details are interesting. week before the last mid-term election, joe biden lawyers were rooting in a locked closet in the pan-biden global engagement and while in the locked closet biden lawyer found highly classified government documents, why were joe biden's lawyers doing this in the first place? it is weird. lawyers don't typically search locked closets, yours probably don't. biden's lawyers did and we guess
5:02 pm
because they understood republicans were about to win back the house and congressional subpoena power. cleanup operation to get ahead of a scandal they knew was coming and hid what they found until after the midterm election, no reason to influence voters with information, there is that. then the question of pan-biden center at university of pennsylvania, what is that, exactly? idea of academic biden center is funny, joe biden is a moron, always been a moron, even before the dementia. for decades in washington, biden was famous as dumbest member of senate, people made jokes about it. why name a think tank after a man who can't think and pay him million a year for not doing anything? more on that in a minute. first a word about classified
5:03 pm
documents, people you see huffing and puffing about vital state secrets, not just democrats, everybody, they are either lying or don't understand how washington works, how many legitimate vital state secrets are there? not many at all. in democracy, the government has no right to hide what it is doing from the public except under extraordinary circumstances. it is not fine to spend 60 years hiding the fact the cia was involved in murder of president, hiding involvement in kennedy assassination is a criminal behavior made possible by classification regime designed not to protect this country, but to protect political class, which is efficiently does. oh, but our enemies screech the morones on tv, if we classify these documents and do that, our
5:04 pm
enemies will learn our secrets. please. china knows our secrets, all of our secrets. chinese government hacked every agency in washington and everybody knows that and nobody seems to care. biden administration cares so little it suspended espionage program for chinese spying. chinese can know, you can't know, biden trusts beijing more than he trusts you. job is to push back against attitudes like that. reporters are people who are paid to find out what government is doing and tell you about it so democracy can continue. there are few of those left. ed snowden lives in exile. controlled by government agency and suggestion drives them to 4isterria. watch cnn and msnbc, react to news republicans in congress
5:05 pm
might tell us some of what the thoroughly krunt intel company has been doing. >> republicans can shred at integrity of federal government and tell america your government is spying on you and coming after you, that is at the heart of this tear-down, break down the government, can't trust the government, he gave them a committee platform to have hearings and you better believe that is in the veins of fox news viewers. >> they are establishing a sub-committee or committee on which conspiracy theories, this is so extraordinarily dangerous, they are going to actually issue these people want to target america's intel community. >> this is a body of the congress that we are trying to maintain credibility with and we are not going to do that by open
5:06 pm
up all kinds of suspicions about the institutions in our society. [laughter] >> it is outrageous to tell people the government is spying on them, especially since the government is spying on them. that is confirmed, by the way, a fact, they spied on us. if you want to know what your government is do being, targeting intelecommunity, you are disloyal american. that is what msnbc is saying. we learned twitter functioned as mouth piece for the fbi and spy agency, same thing has happened to cable news and that is graver threat to democracy than any group of trump voters who were at the capitol on january 6. back to the story, hilarious double standard on question of classified documents, just this
5:07 pm
summer, nbc historian michael suggested donald trump deserve the death penalty for keeping documents at mar-a-lago. fried in the electric chair. michael hayden agreed, sounds about right, totally normal for cia directors to fantasize about killing american presidents. for fun, we reached out to michael to ask what punishment he thinks joe biden deserves for keeping classified documents in his office. of course he didn't respond, he was applying pancake makeup for another msnbc hit. not just michael claimed this, they all said that, watch. >> the seriousness of the potential threat to national security information, i don't know what to say. >> if he was in possession of classified documents, those are by definition, potentially
5:08 pm
harmful to national security. >> we have a president of the united states who has played fast and loose with the national security. >> we have a situation where what he was doing was dangerous to national security. >> ez that are classified and really a threat to national security. >> that really jumps out to me as a national security threat. >> this is a national security cries. >> extreme risk trump was willing to take with our national security. [laughter] >> the funniest part was bernstein, "washington post" who participated in an fbi operation, documented, to drive a sitting duly elected president from office, and he is lecturing us about keeping secret things secret. last night we learned joe biden, someone with no power to declassify anything when he was vice president stashed classified documents in his private office at the same time
5:09 pm
he was sending doj after donald trump. cnn trotted out lawyer called brian grier, to say this happens all the time. >> almost any mishandling case could be shoe horned into a criminal investigation, but going back to the prior point, this type of mishandling happens all the time and it has become a political football with all three last presidential candidates, i worry about why we need to take this seriously, i worry about overcriminalizing it, laufrping full investigations that become political football and can disincentivize people from serving in the federal government. we want them to do the right thing, report it when it happens and not conceal and obstruct, which is what trump did.
5:10 pm
>> some who work in cable news for 25 years can affirm it wasn't always the case there was an fbi employee telling you what the truth is, news organizations used to assume if someone was paid to lie for the government, they probably were not reliable on tv, probably weren'ts telling the truth to tv, but now it is the norm. cia lawyer you saw, brian greer, was telling us that donald trump endangered national security, inteleience agencies have no choice but to assume a compromise and take proactive measures to protect sources and collection capabilities. that was then, like august. now he's telling you this happens all the time issue just calm down. calm down. rest of the news media has been brazen and "washington post" reported the case will draw
5:11 pm
comparison to mar-a-lago but appears to be quite different. how? every news source telling us there were 10 documents, how do they know that? they have no idea, they are just taking biden's lawyers word for it. that is not news collection, that is press release writing. you will see identical articles in forbes and business insider and the hill, usual places repeating same scripted talking point. what the outlets tell you are true, joe biden was not holding on to the cocktail napkins found at mar-a-lago, he had actual classified information about a bunch of country, including ukraine from his time as vice president. why? why always about ukraine? don't talk about the biolab, what is that? why the obsession with ukraine going back long before the russian invasion 've ukraine, going back many years?
5:12 pm
in this case, three days before joe biden left his job as vice president in january of 2017, the uvkrainians were confused about the focus on their country. there was a report that said this, literally on the last days of his term, joe biden is going to kyiv, how do we explain this attention to us? ukrainians were confused. why is the president of the united states spending his life focused on ukraine? what is going on? here is one explanation? same moment that joe biden was visiting ukraine as his last official act, husband drug-addicted son were on the board of burisma, natural gas company in ukraine.
5:13 pm
hunter biden held that job until 2018. is there connection between the fact his son was getting rich for ukraine and joe biden 2017 trip to ukraine on air force two at your expense? you think there might be a connection, no one in washington has thought to press that point, they are set and talking about trump and his crimes. watch joe biden from september explain why he supported doj raid on mar-a-lago and here is a hint, it is totally irresponsible for government officials to keep classified documents after leaving office. >> when you saw the photograph of the top secret documents laid out on the floor at mar-a-lago, what did you think to yourself looking at that image? >> how that could possibly happen. how anyone could be that irresponsible. i thought, what data was in there that may compromise sources and methods, by that i
5:14 pm
mean names of people, etcetera. just totally irresponsible. >> so they seem like hypocrites, we could play endless loop of clips like that, they are not hypocrites, they can do what they want and you are subjects to the minutia of legal code, it is called tyranny. to more enduring questions, what is this penn biden center, the penn biden center, what is the purpose of the center? april of 2000en ska, one of hunter biden business associates explained to hunter that penn biden center operates like the clinton global initiative without the money raised. all the upside, none of the downside? without money raised? you do not have to raise money. washington free beacon reported
5:15 pm
there was a lot of money being raised by university of pennsylvania and being raised from foreign government after the biden center opened. see the connection quoting from the piece, foreign contributions to universities of pennsylvania tripled since the soft opening, from 31 million to 100 million in 2019. where did the money come from? where do you think? the largest foreign contributor was china. go to the web page for the penn biden center, you get an idea what the money bought. section called addressing threat to liberal international order, russia and vladamir putin are mentioned as threat to liberal international order, but china, who is committing genocide is not mentioned. so all this aroused susspicions and we decided to get a closer
5:16 pm
look at university of pennsylvania and ties to china. we took a look at text messages from hunter biden laptop and found messages between professor at penn's department to naomi biden. dear naomi, i want to invite you to take part in a major conference in china at end of march, i have been asked to recruit a prominent young leader. they will fly you business class and supply your accommodations, they are interested in you thanks to your family name. i would not take offense to that, better you than tiffany trump, if you are interested, can you send me a bio, i would forward that and expect a formal invitation. pretty remarkable. that has not been previously
5:17 pm
reported, as far as we know. employee of university of pennsylvania, ivy league school, sending an invitation on behalf of the chinese communist party to recruit joe biden's granddaughter, she would stay in government controlled acommendations. people on television seem concerned about national security, former cia and fbi employees going on cnn and msnbc to tell you national security implication are first in mind, are they concerned about this? they asked a single question about it? of course they won't. tonight we'll ask fact-based questions about classified materials joe biden had at the penn biden center and what they tell us, we begin tonight with fox business hillary vaughn, what do you know? >> thanks, tucker. penn biden center is a normal
5:18 pm
office building, popular after-work watering hole for democrats and republicans, just steps from capitol hill. today we tried to talk to house democrats if they think the president being caught with classified documents in his old ofls is a big deal or not, not everyone was feeling chatty. >> do you have any comment on president biden keeping classified documents -- >> i'm sorry. >> but pelosi had a lot to say about former president trump's top secret stash at mar-a-lago. >> the rule of law and that is what our country is about and no person is above the law, not even the president of the united states, not even a former president of the united states. >> we did talk to some democrats
5:19 pm
who are down playing the whole thing and defending biden. >> they found them there. >> do you think that poses national security threat? >> no. >> why not? >> because i don't think so. >> some democrats are waiting to see what the doj will say. >> does it bother you that classified documents were found at president biden's old office? >> i know this is an emerging issue and has been referred to the doj. >> some lawmakers were unbothered, others backing biden and some caught mid-bite, too busy to give a sound bite. >> you made my night, thank you for that. >> thanks. >> thank you. miranda devine, authority on hunter biden laptop, author of "laptop from hell," joins us. you have been on parts of this
5:20 pm
story for years now, what do you make of this? >> well, it just looks like projection from joe biden, doesn't it? as usual, democrats tool of trade to accuse their opponents of the very sins they are committing. it is obvious in this case now and you just wonder why it has come out and what the true story is about these confidential documents. but as far as university of pennsylvania goes, there is a long incestuous sim biotic relationship with the bidens, joe biden, you know, his grandchildren in there, children of friends in there, he treated it as his own little playpen and when he stepped down from being vice president, he was paid almost a million dollars by the university of pennsylvania, or he put his name on that supposed
5:21 pm
think tank. and in return, i suppose his name attracted chinese money. as you just said, the amount of money came in from china to the university after joe biden opened that think tank quadrupled almost, from about $20 million to over $75 million. you have to look at quid quo pro and talk about naomi biden, the casual offer from penn professor of this propaganda tour sponsored and paid for by the chinese communist party with business class tickets and hunter said go for it and ask for two tickets so you can bring
5:22 pm
your boyfriend. >> it is beyond belief and happening out in public. of course you know that, you have been dealing with this for years. miranda devine, thank you. the hallmark of total tearism is political party controlling details of your life, intimate details like what you cook your dinner on. biden administration is considering ban on gas stoves in the name of climate, but for your own good. if america puts up with this, probably put up with anything, something we're thinking about, more details straight ahead. more medical guidance for obese children written by the pharmaceutical companies, more on that next. what kind of stov
5:27 pm
5:28 pm
whether to ban gas stoves because of safety. we have had the stoves for 100 years, it is fine to give fentanyl to addicts, but stoves are a threat to your life? people use gas stoves for a living, some run restaurants. thanks for coming on. you're a restaurant owner, this is not a luxury, this is core to your business. would you obey a ban on gas stoves? why are they superior to electric? for 35 years, we've been attacked by everybody. organized crime and corrupt wall street and for last three years, we've had government overreach. we've seen it during covid, they did things and never followed
5:29 pm
the science and what is going on, i heard a rumor last year and what i'm hearing today from the white house to g governor hochul, they want to make us use electric stoves. we lose 40% productivity by using electric, by using electric, if they inquire with small business owners, three pieces of advice, get stronger filtration system, get a hood system that, wos and train your staff how to maintain it. for 35 years, wee continuously have obstacles running our industry. tucker, thank you for supporting small business, since last time i was on, you inspired me to write the book. our journey is constantly being attacked, we're vulnerable and i will tell you this will destroy our industry just as bad as they
5:30 pm
attempted to do with covid. >> there has to be a limp to what people put up with, a red line, in the face of tyranny in this case. do you think restaurant owners would obey? why does hochul able to tell you what to do. >> i did not obey kathy hochul, our bills will go six times higher and on top of that productivity drops, this will not just hurt hospitality industry, casinos, shopping maul, airports, residential towers, office buildings depend on us for content and if we don't develop the content for big developers, this whole thing will collapse. again, they are not following the science and this is not following the science.
5:31 pm
we don't allow cooks to stand in smoke, we have a strong filtration system and this is what is needed if they want to go down this route. >> tucker: people who sent crack pipes to addicts and they are concerned about safety? ignore them, please. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: here is an amazing story. american academy of pediatrics, you trust if you have kids. issued new guidance on obesity. you have to wonder in light of the american academy of pediatrics new guideline for childhood obesity. anyone who tried to lose weight, stop eating sugary food, that is not the guidance, they are saying kids should take weight loss medication and potentially
5:32 pm
undergo surgery for children. dr. marc siegelin joins us. >> 15 million children are obese, that was before the pandemic and the guidelines read like panic. clinical practice, i don't follow clinical practice guidelines, i don't doctor by the numbers. i listen to the patient. i don't fat shame, i listen to their concerns, are you depressed, why are you eating so much? guess what the pandemic did? t took kids away from exercise programs. guess what happens, they are burgeoning in weight, what do they do now? knee jerk a solution, give them a pill, that doesn't work,
5:33 pm
surgery might have long-complications to it. i have a prescription, i want to go back to the beginning. i have my own guidelines. you introduce vegetables to your diet and your kid's diet. go on a walk and take your kid on a walk. you have them exercise, ride a bike and have them ride a bike and challenge them, you say, watch tucker carlson tonight and see if it challenges your brain. tucker. >> tucker: getting rid of pizza and oreos, speaking to myself, i do love, that goes along with that. >> oh, yeah. >> tucker: pizza and oreo. >> and exercise. >> tucker: doctor, thank you. we're strongly for pets, we often say. even emotional support pets, those are real, why not, everything else is real, right?
5:34 pm
one woman found out there is a limp to what qualifies as emotional support pet, boa constrictor on aircraft and hilarity ensued, we'll explain after the break. charlotte! charl! every day can be extraordinary with rich, creamy, delicious fage total yogurt. pain was keeping me from being fully present with my family. but now i can be myself again... with my favorite people in my favorite places. blue-emu is the powerful relief i need. blue-emu, it works fast and you won't stink.
5:38 pm
5:39 pm
>> air travel has become so unpleasant some travelers bring emoegszal support animals on to airlines. what qualifies? one woman decided to test the 4ri678s at tampa airport. he stuffed her snake in her bag, tsa were not convinced. the snake did not make it onto the plane and this scene was avoided. >> what the --
5:40 pm
[screaming] >> enough is enough. i have had it with these [bleep] snakes on thissen pla. everybody strap in. >> tucker: it is reaction most people would have, michael kimmel may disagree, the python cowboy. thank you for coming on, what is your screw of the tsa's decision to ban the snake from the plane, fair or unfair? >> i think it is fair. i'm all for having bet boas for a lot of people, it is a great pet option issue not everybody can have a dog or cat, whether living condition, lifestyle, but you got to be responsible with the reptiles and trying to sneak them on to an airplane is not responsible. >> you could see and obviously you are a defender of boas, but
5:41 pm
you could see a boa strangling somebody to death? >> highly unlikely, but -- >> possible, right? >> there are cases of slightly possible. more so i worry about panic, you know. it is emotional support animal for some people, but for most, it will emotionally scar them. a snake like this gets loose on a plane, people panic, hurt themselves, not a good scene. >> tucker: you never want to doubt bond between man and animal, how much emotional support does a snake provide, would you say? >> you know, that is not really for me to say. everybody is different. even myself, i've had emotional support animal one time, it was actually a raccoon and i had it more so to take out to bars with
5:42 pm
me. i think that is more what a lot of people do. you can buy the certificate online and i think you have people abusing it and calling animals support animals because they want to take it places they shouldn't. >> tucker: when you take raccoons to a bar, that is dating help. i support that. michael kimmel, the boa man. good to see you. in 2021, dozens of churches were torched by anti-christian extremists. last year pro-abortionists attacked. not just churches being hit, our power grid has been under attack and motives remain unclear,
5:43 pm
although you can probably guess. the author of "unmasked, "joins us tonight. thank you for coming on. this church, was shocking, how much coverage, they burned this korean church down, how much coverage did this get? >> it got a bit of coverage locally because it happened in downtown, one of the few remaining historic churches in portland, it was destroyed in the fire, 117 years old. what remained was destroyed by the city, it was at risk of collapsing and potential ly injuring people. the suspect, the arson suspect is a trans woman and she allegedly told investigators that she has a history of mental
5:44 pm
health issues and her voices in her head to burn down the church. the tragic destruction of the church really just one small part of the day-to-day human misery that is playing out on the streets of portland and seattle and l.a. because of failed leadership regarding the homelessness crisis in portland. there is a complex where human beinged says of millions of dollars are spent every year enriching so-called nonprofit groups that are tasked with helping allegedly the homeless issue but instead create conditions where people from all over the country are attracted to the cities and there is never any expectation they better themselves or the new community. >> tucker: no, they make it much
5:45 pm
worse. thank you. we'll stay on the power grid story, which is fascinating and mysterious and bad. great to see you. thank you. in the middle of the biggest public health crisis in our lifetime, news organizations censured true and useful information about covid. robert f. kennedy junior is filing a new lawsuit, he will join us next to explain what it is. a new lawsuit, he will join next to explain what it is. new next to explain what it is. a ne next to explain what it is.

5:51 pm
including robert f. kennedy, whom history will vin diicate completely. kennedy and several others are suing the initiative. we asked about the lawsuit. reuters says they have not seen the lawsuit. robert f. kennedy is chairman and chief litigation of children's health defense and honored to have him join us tonight. tell us what this suit seeks to do, if you don't mind? >> you and i know from the twitter files and other information that is being released that the white house is other government agencies were colluding with social media and new organizations, this is something different, this is secretive cartel that involved the big legacy media companies that you mentioned, associated press, reuters, "washington post" and the bbc and also
5:52 pm
social media platforms, microsoft, google, facebook and twitter, with two purposes, to suppress and censure information, whether true or not, that departed from official government orthodoxy and government proclamations. more motivating purpose of the cartel was revealed in one memo we have obtained from bbc, which is to destroy their rivals in the independent media, the bbc memo says to the other groups and bbc, british government-owned news network. and it was the one that oeshg straightsed this secret collaboration competitive collaboration and they said although we are ostensibly all

fauci and nih, we will make sure to identify them and to make sure they are not given a platform and again, tucker, this had nothing to do with whether the statements were inaccurate, they use the word misinformation and acknowledge this throughout as euphemism for any statement that departs from official government orthodoxy. >> that is the point there, they were censuring things that were true and you cross into criminal propaganda, in my opinion and we are rooting for you in this lawsuit and otherwise in this lawsuit tonight. thank you, good to see you. >> we'll be right back. there are some things that go better...together. burger and fries...soup and salad. like your workplace benefits and retirement savings. with voya, considering all your financial choices together can help you make smarter decisions. voya. well planned. well invested. well protected.
