gerrit says is hunter back on crack? i don't think he was off it. steve says somebody should say if the famous pontiff. who cares if that guy hiccups and roads a scooter? quick making fun of him. and who has a helmet? dvr the show. tucker is next. i'm waters, this is my world. >> tucker: good evening. welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." it's been a tough couple years for the experts when it comes to public policy questions. like war and disease and the economy really the only things that matter. the assumption in washington has for many years that you should not worry about it. don't sweat the details. that's not your role as a citizen and as a voter. we don't have that kind of

democracy, the kind where you participate. no, your job is to trust the experts and their conclusions and obey them. covid kind of blew that up. if there's one thing that we learned from that dis-sasser is that public policy experts often had no clue what they were talking about. your hippy aunt knew more about how to beat a flu virus than your virologist on cnn. exercise, sunlight, fresh air, stop eating junk food, turn off your computer, spend time with other people. be healthy. that advice worked. the experts by contrast made you get the vaccine and that did not work. so by march of 2021, people are starting to figure this out. anyone who was paying attention in america understood that the experts, many of them were full of it. it was exactly at that moment that the atlantic magazine in washington published a piece pushing back against a growing consensus. that story was called following

your gut isn't the right way to go. hard to think of a funnier headline because it's so spectacularly absurd. you should always trust your gut obviously. it's the one thing that will never betray you. but the atlantic magazine wanted you to know that your natural instincts are in fact worthless. the experts had a rough year at the magazine. but we still have to trust them. right. actually we don't have to trust them. big questions on public policy we should not trust them. it's a democracy. but washington is continuing to demand that we do trust them. why? there may be a reason? maybe covid isn't the only big project that they have in mind for us. the project the experts will justify at msnbc. indeed it's not. there's the climate change agenda. it's the single most ambitious effort to remake human civilization in all recorded history. it's coming.

it's already in progress. the only reason that millions and millions of americans are not protesting in the streets tonight over this effort to completely overturn their lives is that on some level many people still don't trust the experts on climate change. should they? we're pondering that this morning when we saw the world's most famous climate change expert, greta thunberg just deleted a tweet she wrote in june of 2018. here it is. "a top climate scientists is warning that climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years." it was a harvard professor. obviously that was going to be correct. here we are still driving our trucks and some of us are still alive and happy. it makes you wonder if greta thunberg, the greatly revered greta thunberg could have gotten that so wrong. what else did the climate experts get wrong?

how long have they been getting it wrong? competitive enterprise has done the research. these people have been very wrong for a very long time. 1969 "the new york times" was printing climate hysteria from an expert called paul ehrlich. he says everybody will disappear in a cloud of blue steam in 20 years. that was paul ehrlich in 1969. here it is 2023. that same paul ehrlich, now 90 and still being cited on "60 minutes" is still telling us we're all going to do. clearly paul ehrlich had some sort of traumatic childhood he's inflicts on the rest of us for over 50 years. for 50 years, his fellow expert have taken him seriously. back then, climate change didn't mean global warming. it meant a new ice age in 1970. the "boston globe" reported scientists predict a new ice age by 21st century. according to the globe, air

pollution may obliterate the sun and cause a new ice age in the first third of the next century. an ice age. 1972, brown university science department sent letters to the white house saying that they had deep concern with the future of the world. because this ice age falls within the rank of processes that produced the last ice age. two years later, 1974, the guardian reported that spy satellites show new ice age is coming fast. the report cited just for moral weight analysis carried out at columbia university. then a few years later, 1977, leonard nemoy was on a science expert and shot this video. >> we're unprepared for the next advance. the result could be hunger and death on a scale unprecedented in all of history. what scientists are telling us now is that the threat of an ice age is not as remote as they

once thought. during the lifetime of our grandchildren, arctic cold and perpetual snow could turn most of the inhabitable portions of our planet in to a polar desert. >> tucker: hunger and death on an unprecedented scale. by the early 1980s, when the ice didn't arrive, well, the experted cited the problem wasn't too much cold, it was too much heat. it was global warming. in 1989, the associated press ran this story. a senior u.n. environmental official says entire nations could be wiped off of the face of the earth by rising sea levels if global warming trend is not reversed by the year 2000. 23 years ago. that same year, 1989 a climate expert called jim hanson met with a reporter. according to salon, hanson explained in 20 or 30 years the west side highway along the

hudson river in manhattan will be under water. under water. we checked tonight. actually, it's congested, but still a road. in march of 2000, the independent newspaper ran a piece explaining that snowfalls are now just a thing of the past. we're quoting. snow is starting to disappear from our lives. the piece quote add climate expert claiming that children just are not going to know what snow is. no idea what snow is. it will be a relic not of the ice age but of the great inferno of global warming. then in 2004, civilization still existed. the guardian predicted that major european cities will be sunk under rising seas is britain is plunged into a siberian climate. it was around this time that they decided hey, we don't want

to get pinned down on the details. will it be too hot or cold? we won't say. something bad will happen so we're going to call it climate change. that paved the way for al gore who in 2006 who released his documentary, an inconvenient truth. the bit of an inconvenient truth is now that it's inconveniently more than 15 years since it came out, we can fact check his claims. here's the trailer. >> if you look at the ten hottest years ever measured, they have all occurred in the last 14 years. the hottest of all was 2005. this is patagonia 75 years ago. this is mount kilimanjaro. 35 years ago and last year. within the decade there will be no more snows of kilimanjaro.

>> tucker: al gore said there would be no ice in the arctic. he quoted experts and he explained that the north pole will be ice-free in the summer by 2013 because of manmade global warming. now, it does take a certain level of chutzpah to make a prediction that precise. al gore made many of them and they all turned out to be wrong. for a normal person, that could be a cue that it's time to retire. maybe i can stop talking because i've been disgraced by my own foolish predictions. he kept toing and helped in that by the entire news media. news organizations exist to bring you the news to assist if things are true or not. if they collude to hide lylying you have to ask is something else going on here? you decide. nbc news informed the world that the world has a ten-year window

until 2016. a window of opportunity to take decisive action of global warming and avert catastrophe. of course by their predicted date, donald trump became president. that's not what they were predicting. in 2008, the associated press reported according to a top nasa scientist, in five to ten years the arctic will be free of ice in the summer. that didn't happen. nobody was ever held to account for bad predictions. so they kept going. john kerry now our climate czar cited that very same science in 2009. watch. >> you have sea ice, which is melting at a rate that the arctic ocean now increasingly is exposed and if enough years scientists predict we'll have the first ice-free arctic summer. >> tucker: hilarious. this guy never had a job. he's only been in politics. he's never done one useful thing. he's not a scientist.

he's never done research. he's actually not an expert. because he's way more aggressive than you are and because he has acc is to the media which amplify his claims, he poses one. so what is strange about the prediction that you just heard, john kerry's prediction contradicts barack obama's famous climate prediction from a year earlier. >> if we are willing to work for it and fight for it and believe in it, then i am absolutely certain that generations from now we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless. this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal. >> sad to watch that, all the cheering people. they seemed so sincere. he's going to save the world. he's jesus. he can control the weather.

in fact, the global healing obama promised at the beginning of his first term never came. neither did the global destruction. here, by the wayed, is neil degrasse tyson. he said by 2014, the statue of liberty will soon be under water. >> you know what i tell people? this really -- this wakes them. here in the new york metropolitan area, i say if we lose the ice caps, you know how high the water will be? maybe a couple feet. no. come up to the statue of liberty's elbow. the one that is holding the declaration of independence. that's where the water line will be. >> tucker: that man is a scientist. climate does change and always changed. the landscape we live in now is formed by climate change. the glaciers are a product of climate change. the climate is changing now i'm it never stops changing.

that's a process that we didn't cause and can't control to any great degree. we will never be able to control. there's upsides to it and down sides to it. by the way, if the earth is indeed getting warmer and seems to be, that will make more airable land in canada and northern europe. so like everything in this life and the temporal world, it's a mixed blessing. you only hear the down sides, which tells you a lot. tells you this is not science. it's manipulation. these are not report from the experts, these are threats. here's joe biden. >> that's what climate change is about. it's literally not a clear and present danger. the latest climate report nothing less than "code red for humanity." say it again. code red for humanity. >> tucker: code red for humanity! he never explains what that means.

you have to check your book of science to find out. in the details, which they don't offer many details because they've all been wrong, but they are provably wrong over time. so the question is why are we still being bullied by these people? they hate the earth. they hate nature. it's about controlling united states. maybe we should recognize that. chris warner is the author of "red hot lives." he joins us tonight. mr. warner, thanks for coming on. so it does seem like we're complicit. the public is complicit in this. they keep telling you the same dumb things and they keep being wrong and nobody holds them to account. you take the wood steve away and i accept that. maybe it's our fault for buying the lies. >> that's a very good point. fear sells. you can usen't to get what you want.

blaming your neighbor since resolved. politicians seize on it. they supported, they underwrote activists who agitated for policies that businesses who are also underwriting the activists would profit from. it's the second oldest profession. it's a typical washington play. it slipped the leash, very scaled up. now we have this death cult says you're going to die from old cable and i'm going to die from climate change. why do we keep falling for it? it's happened to two generations now. our elected leaders continue to march to this tune despite everything you just showed. well-done. how doesn't any one watch this and demand their elected official plan that they control the weather, cede the freedoms that you don't want to use. carol browner said if we control your thermostat, we'll be giving you a choice in what you do

we'll scare you, promise savings and then gloss it up with global salvationism. why do we keep falling for it? incidentally, we're seeing blackouts, to be viewed as the new normal. energy rationing, we have to do it for these reasons. this is lunacy. terrible ones just over the horizon. we see what you just showed. i grew up with the leonard nemoy specials. how does this happen? >> tucker: how does paul ehrlich, the scientist, still tell us everyone is going to die when he made it to 90? it's amazing. it's irony. chris horner, thanks. great to see you. >> thank you. >> tucker: well, the fbi doesn't seem to be making a lot of progress figuring out how the biden family made all of that

money from foreign governments and was it legal or not. congressman james comer of kentucky has been looking to it. he found that hallie biden, the widow of beau biden, hunter's ex-girlfriend, received a $35,000 cut of a $3 million payout from china. part of a deal that hunter biden made with the chinese energy state company. hunter biden's legal team and said hunter is a private citizen with every right to pursue his own business endeavors. that's his attorney's position. miranda divine is one of the experts on this. she joins us now to assess. miranda, thanks for coming on. so what do you think jamie comer will find here? what do you think of hunter biden's attorney's statement? >> thanks, tucker.

well, this clearly hunter biden's lawyers are trying to say that this money, these two tranches of $3 million that went to rob walker, a hunter biden associate, business associate and friend, was seed money. prepayment for future work to be done. that's ridiculous. tony bobulinski has said and he was involved in these deals, hunter biden's former business partner and there's ample evidence on the laptop to show that hunter biden and his business partners were doing work for this chinese energy conglomerate for the last two years of joe biden's vice presidency. they were owed money. the money was not to be paid until after joe biden left office. so sure enough, here we are in february of 2017, just less than two months after joe biden left office and the first of these $3

million payments has come through to rob walker's bank account. another one came a couple of weeks later. within a few days, that money gets disbursed to we know from james comer today to four immediate family members of joe biden. that being his son, hunter, his brother jim biden, hallie biden, the widow of his late son, beau, who at that stage had been having a relationship with hunter for two years since her husband had died, and then there's another, a fourth family member of the bidens that james comer and his oversight committee have not been able to find the identity of. it's just named as "biden." they're subpoenaing those bank records, that bank account and presumably will find that soon, probably next week. you know, they are continuing on, just following the money.

i think if as hunter's lawyers and the white house is saying, there's nothing untoward about this, then why was this money so laboriously dolled out over three months in small increments to various members of the family and why was it given to hallie biden a primary school teacher and did they all pay tax on it? why was rob walker the middleman? >> tucker: i don't know. they didn't -- it's not like they complained about a drag queen story hour. so the fbi is not interested in finding out what happened. i happy birthday all of those questions are answered by mr. comer i've committee. miranda divine, thank you. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: there's been a number of bank failures recently like electricity backouts. we didn't have a lot of them. by my count, there's been five

recently. seems like a pattern. maybe a banking crisis? kevin o'leary assesses what we're watching straight ahead.

america is systemically racist. only the government can save us humans are a parasite on the planet stop! i was a left-wing activist, but thanks to prageru, my mind has changed. through prageru's short educational videos, i learned how to articulate my beliefs and fight for my values. with your help, millions of young american minds can be changed. donate a generous tax deductible gift at prageru.com. dude, what're you doing? i'm protecting my car. that's too much work. weathertech is so much easier... laser-measured floorliners up here, seat protector and cargoliner back there... nice! out here, side window deflectors... and mud flaps... and the bumpstep, to keep the bumper dent-free. cool! it's the best protection for your vehicle, new or pre-owned.

great. but where do i---? order. weathertech.com. sfx: bubblewrap bubble popped sound.

>> tucker: kamala harris is not

a jeopardy champion. easy to stump her with a question. last night she got the easiest possible question and had -- well, trace gallagher tells us more. >> the v.p. was profile is so low, the president calls her ka kamala instead of kamala. today one-on-one interviews are given only to friendly outlets, which as we witnessed on stephen colbert, put her in a pickle. >> i know you love veep. >> i do. i love veep. is it accurate? >> there's bits of it that are quite accurate. >> what is a actual role on a daily basis as you have found it? >> i have the great privilege of serving with joe biden, who is the.

of the united states. >> that's an excellent answer. the question is what is the job of the vice president? your answer is part of the job, i'm guessing. >> for the job of the haven't, the constitution outlines two roles for vice presidents. takeover if the president is unable and preside over the senate. job a has been so far unnecessary and in job b, she's been the senate tiebreaker 26 times. beyond that, her resume is paper thin. she's the border czar. as we learned yesterday, the border is unsecure, uncontrolled and desperately needs a wall. finally in the vp's defense, it's very difficult for her to excel at a job that she cannot define. tucker? >> tucker: quit a story. trace gallagher the best. thank you. so you may have noticed there's something very serious going on with banks in this country, not

just in this country but certainly here as well. janet yellen went to congress today to testify about it. she said at one point the trillions of dollars that the government has pumped in to the economy are not related to the historic inflation. >> would you agree toes are the top three causes of inflation deficit spending and high energy costs? >> i don't believe that deficit spending is one of the main causes. >> tucker: by the way, this person was the fed chairman. she said the inflation would be transitory. she won't admit that. she was wrong but lying about it. this is not the first time she's been wrong. here she was in 2007, one year before the great recession. >> would i say there will never ever be another financial

crisis? you know, probably that's -- that would be going too far, but i do think we're much safer and i hope it will not be in our lifetimes. i don't believe it will be. >> tucker: our mistake. that was 2017. clearly she didn't see this crisis coming. kevin o'leary is a canadian business man and investor and tv star. we're glad to have him join us tonight. thanks so much for coming on. i have two concerns. one that these bank failures are not just isolated incidents but related to each other and two, the people in charge of managing this economy are not up to the job. are they to be worried about? >> well, let's take the bank situation. what occurred here when they were founded 40, 50 years ago, it was a different economy, a different world. no digital age. people needed the touch point of a bank in their community.

99% of banking is done online. there's a lot of people that have never been in a branch in a regional bank or any bank for that matter. so the question is all the failures. what do we any tiny regional banks for in the first place? what we're learning is where are you going to find systemic risk in a tiny bank that doesn't have scales? the manager there's have to swing for the fences. they're compensated on equity in the bank's stock. so the classic case that you're seeing is two failures, which is -- they had bad managers. so if we think about silicon valley bank, it was like a hedge fund. signature, i don't know what that was. that is like a saturday night cartoon. you're going to get more and more of this because these banks are under tremendous pressure to compete against what is going on

with behemoths. >> tucker: wait. my i interrupt you and ask you a question? you're making a strong case on the basis of math, which i respect. it's inefficient to have the little banks when you have the big banks. but doesn't that give politicians disproportionate control over our economy if everyone is banking with six banks, doesn't that make washington much stronger? >> you know, everybody is starting to bank with six banks. because the big four right now are taking in billions every day. i was on the phone today with one of them. we're transferring many accounts there because we don't wake to take any systemic risks in cash. why should we keep it in a regional bank? people are trying to say that's not happening. it's happening by the billions every day. many countries have proven that they can run the entire economy on four or five giant banks. you may not like the sound of that, but that's where we're going.

the only question is -- we talk about first republic bank being bailed out by other banks. why are they doing that? first republic is a zombie bank now. nobody will put capitol there. they don't need to. they can put it any big bank and go online and get the same services, this is a political nightmare. because you're going to have people saying we have to keep these small operators operating. the big issue is if you nationalize deposits and take the risk out of it -- film an idiot manager in a regional bank and compensated with stock, i'm going to put all of my depositor's money on black in las vegas. if i lose it, the taxpayer will bail me out. it's messed up. it's not a good situation.

yellen will have a lot of trouble explaining this to taxpayers. >> tucker: if you like what amazon and walmart did to downtowns across america, you'll love having four banks. you make an entirely fair point about backstopping every deposit. thanks, kevin. appreciate it. >> take care. >> tucker: so you'd think when politicians got caught sexualizing children, they would, i don't know, maybe get arrested? no. they got bolder. the lieutenant governor of minnesota is going further than we have ever seen a lieutenant governor go. more next.

hi, i'm lauren, i lost 67 pounds on golo. i have tried so many different products and have lost so much money and wasted a lot of time. golo is a miracle, it really is. no money wasted in this at all.

>> tucker: used to be that people that sexualized children got arrested and put in prison. now they get elected to office. politicians pushing the sexualization of children and the mutilation of genitals.

in minnesota, tim walsh is ensuring gender affirming care for minors, including all forms of surgery including castration. so if a child wants to cut off her breaths, it will destroy her life, cause other irreversible changes, sterility, the state of minnesota will help them do it and not embarrassed of this at all. the lieutenant governor, peggy flanagan said parents have no role whatsoever in the process. you're not the parent to your children. peggy flanagan and the creeps that run minnesota are. watch this video. >> let's be clear, this is life affirming and life saving healthcare. when our children tell us who they are, it is our job as grownups to listen and to

believe them. that's what it means to be a good parent. >> tucker: scary. that video is out of jonestown. the intensity. that's a cult member there. this same demographic. have you noticed that? people exactly like that. our job as grownups is to believe them? really? have you been a parent? kids say all kinds of thing. your job is to be a parent and guide the children. the state of minnesota is making they'll legal and nobody is noticing. as we told you, the criminal trial of douglas mackey is the greatest threat to the first amendment in modern american history. joe biden's department of justice is prosecuting mackey for the crime of making fun of hillary clinton and her voters with a meme on twitter in 2016. for that crime, biden's doj is trying to throw him in my son

for ten years. the trial was postponed after a defense witness was intimidated by the southern poverty law center. james lawrence is his lawyer. thanks for coming in. it's hard to believe that a case like this could go to trial and that the governor could defend with trying to throw a man in prison for ten years for making fun of hillary clinton. that's what is happening. >> tucker the biden doj is coming up with new ways to criminalize dissent and to attack our constitutional rights. this is a concern to all of us and that's why i'm asking your viewers to support doug's legal defense by going on to memedefensefund.com. let's start at the top. the government is using a statute aimed at the

ku klux klan. the sixth amendment grants the right to confront your witnesses in open court. in this case, the government is going to call a confidential witness against doug. that's reserved for organizations like ms-13. the court in this case granted the government's request citing concerns about online harassments. let's not miss the logic here, tucker. the logic is that anonymous twitter accounts are akin to violent criminal organizations. it just gets worse. it just gets worse. doug's defense can't cross examine this confidential witness on this individual's john going relationship with the fbi. it's deeply troubling. these are issues that -- >> tucker: these are let me ask you, it seems to be the u.s. congress should be withholding

funding from doj over this. are any members of congress other than marjorie taylor green has been involved in this, but is anybody else coming to your aid on this? >> she's the only republican member of congress that has raised this issue. i'm glad you mentioned congress. nobody voted for this. congress has had the opportunity to address election misinformation and disinformation repeatedly and refuse to do it. doug mackey is on trial over this issue. when our leaders talk about our democracy, this is what they mean by it. that's why i'm asking your audience to not only pray for doug but to support his legal defense at memedefensefund.com. >> tucker: you have to be allowed to make fun of the people in power or it's not a free country. it's a police state. this needs to be stopped. so thankful that you're representing him. james lawrence, the lawyer for

douglas mackey. >> thank you, tucker. >> sean: so speech has to stay free, period. that's why the case of julian assange who hurt in one, a journalist, still rotting in pry season and has been for a decade for journalism is of such deep interest to anybody that cares about freedom, a new documentary on julian assange. his father and brother join us next.

america is systemically racist. only the government can save us defund the police. humans are a parasite on the planet. defund the police. tax the rich. stop! the culture and our education system are feeding young people a steady diet of lies. i used to believe many of them, i was a left-wing activist... but thanks to prageru, my mind has changed. i was a sideline conservative. through prageru's short educational videos, i learned how to articulate my beliefs and fight for my values.

prageru's 5 minute videos changed my mind about police brutality, and helped me pursue truth. every year, prageru garners over 1 billion views online. with your help, millions of young american minds can be changed through the power of prageru's reach. help us save america. donate a generous tax deductible gift at prageru.com the insurance company enwasn't fair.ity y ca i didn't know what my case was worth, so i called the barnes firm. llll theararnes rmrm now the best result possible. ♪ call one eight hundred, eight million ♪

of his father. the film is called "ithaca." here's the trailer. >> i'm john schiffton, julian assange's father. >> i urge the department of justice to drop the charges. >> the maximum jail sentence of 17 years. >> because he published the truth. >> how does it feel to be the father of a controversial person? >> john schiffton is julian assange's father. thanks for coming on. john, to you first. the obvious question. are you any closer to getting your son out of prison tonight? >> no, no closer.

we have a rising tide worldwide of support. every parliamentary and democracy in the western world has supported him. we characterized the previous election of the golf in australia as an assange government. the independents are on a platform to bring him to australia. >> tucker: so he should be. the malice that has been directed towards him tells you a lot about the people directing it. gabriel, who is standing in the way of this? >> the national security doj are the ones behind this prosecution of julian. if they would relook at this case and realize that they're prosecuting someone for doing

what journalists do every day, publish or what they should be doing, publish without fear or favor, they would realize this prosecution needs to come to an end. that they should listen to outlets like yours as well as "the new york times," as well as many other groups, human rights groups, free press groups and first amendment advocates that are all calling for this prosecution to be dropped because of the threat that it poses to the first amendment in the usa. >> tucker: i don't understand, john, how politicians say they support democracy and saying this man should with behind bars. >> the goal of the united states constitution is the rights and, of course, the fundamentally the first amendment. why they want to truncate their

own magnificent gift to human kind has got us beat. we keep on and keep getting more and more support. we got 52 screenings around the united states with q&a. people can ask questions of anything they doubt or want to know further. >> tucker: i can speak for myself. i didn't have the full story. once i looked into it, i wound up on your side. i hope others take that same step. john and gabriel shipton, thanks very much. >> thank you, tucker. >> tucker: we'll be right back.

>> tucker: if you have a holster, there's a good chance you know about lucas botkon.

he built t-rex arms and now it's a multimillion dollar company. what a conversation that was. brand new episode of "tucker carlson." here's part of it. >> the brett and butter of the company is custom holsters. i had a vision. i shot a lot of pistol competitions. in 2014, people were carrying small hand guns. easy to conceal. glock 26. things like that. but they weren't very capable. smaller handguns are harder to shoot and get less ammo. you can't put weapon lights on them. >> they're awful. >> tucker: they're horrible. you can't hit anything. >> especially if the person doesn't have a lot of training, which is most gun owners. i thought it would be cool if there was a alcoholster product if you could carry a glock 19, a

full size handgun that is double stack, that accommodate a weapon to identify your threat before you shoot, which is important and carry it comfortably and care are extra ammo if the person wants to do that. i created a holster with a magazine. it took over. everybody makes a holster in that style now. >> tucker: that kid is smart. sean hannity is next. in fact, he's right now. [cheers & applause] >> sean: what do we want to say to tucker? >> we love tucker! >> sean: that's just for you. great show, tucker. >> tucker: thank you. >> sean: welcome to "hannity." we're back live with our great studio audience. thanks for coming. [applause] tonight is the first tv interview, two brothers that helped jussie smolle
