our whole conversation with mike flynn is on tucker carlson and comes out monday on fox nation.s not just mike flynn being destroyed, every ideological opponent of the regime is under attack, parents in school board meetings saying unapproved things, yesterday's joe biden's slack -- using the patriot act to hunt down american parents who are upset about what their kids are learning, watch this. >> with the administration be okay with the fbi using the patriot act to surveilled these parents? >> i don't speak on behalf of the national school board association, i speak on behalf of this government, the attorney general has put out a letter, they will take actions they take and i would point you to them for more information. >> tucker: this is the spokesman for the president of the united states saying they are going to take actions they are going to take like we don't have any control over this. she may be onto something there. it does increasingly seem like the national security state runs everything. remember the doj recently dispatched its antiterrorism national security divisi

mike flynn for example, he was briefly the national security advisor in the trump administration.we learned from the destruction of mike flynn, really, was that sure, you can elect donald trump president but does he really run the executive branch of government? it turned out barack obama was still in charge even though he was no longer president. obama had his cronies charge michael flynn with a crime, talking to russia, as the national security advisor which is not a crime by any stretch and they wrecked his life for doing that. took years for us to figure out what happened there, but now it's obvious, we sat down with a long interview with mike flynn, coming up monday. he told us what is really obvious to everyone watching it, unelected group within washington effectively runs the country without reference tovi voters, here is his assessment. >> we have two separate governments, we have the one that gets elected and goes intos office and you have the government inside of washington, d.c., that operates under no rules, no authorities other than their own or who was ever in charg

mike flynn joins us to explain what happens. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> tucker: michael flynn was the national securityery brief time early in the trump administration and then he was taken out and charged with a crime. if you listen to media coverage, michael flynn was some kind of professional white ring conspiracy not and taken out because it was crazy but that's the opposite of the truth. if he was the number two man in all-american intelligence and then he ran his own intelligence agency, the defense intelligence agency, he knew a lot. and maybe for that reason, relics of the obama administration kneecap him and then immediate we try to send him to jail. it's all clear now and he asked lens it brand-new episode of "tucker carlson today." here's part of it. ♪ ♪ >> the american people, they saw through this from the very beginning because it wasn't about mike flynn. it wasn't even about donald trump, it was about them, and when they -- when the left and the media started to attack the presidency of the united states of america, the american people saw that hey, this is an attack on us. >> tucker: ye

though people really, really wanted to dig into the case against mike flynn at all of the filings and out, even now even you still see stuff coming out now with this sussman indictment and some of the other things that i think durham is actually -- actually is going to probably start to look at. i think it's fascinating, and i think what you learn is that we have two separate governments. we have the one that actually gets elected and goes into office, and then you have a government inside of washington, d.c., that operates under no rules, no authorities other than their own or whoever is in charge -- >> tucker: it sounds like that government was still controlled by barack obama. >> i would say that to a degree is what we are operating with today. so when people talk about the deep state, and i've heard a lot of people talk about the deep state in the deep state this, the deep state that. the deep state, i don't really describe the deep state as a group of politically -- of nancy pelosi or chuck schumer or some of the dash some of the people that are elected. they become part of it, b

it took me years to figure out what happened with mike flynn.ok me many months to dig -- tofigure out that joe bidens going to get elected. trump gets elected, by's not really in charge of the executive branch of government, the hundreds of thousands of federal employees who still effectively report to barack obama. you can change the name of the guy running things but you don't change the people running things. that's a permanent ruling class that runs everything without regard to what voters want. that's scary and it's hard to internalize that if you believe in the basic american ideals, but it's true. judge jeanine: for someone like me with 32 years in law enforcement. i said if there are no prosecutions to all these people who lied to congress where a normal guy goes to jail. i have to question, what did i do for 30 years? justice should be the same for everyone. i'm becoming more and more disillusioned. is it still america? tucker: what is america? america as a system above all else, even our market economy, america is equal treatment under

. >> then there's mike flynn. he loves talking about the holocaust as he did just this week. selling out his country. >> you're going to wake up one day and you're going to be in a metaphorical way be told to get on a train like we saw in the late '30s and '40s in nazi germany. and all the people that got on that train ended up going to their deaths. i ain't getting on that train. i'll take a bullet before i get on that train. >> that's mike flynn, just a thought here, probably best if people stop comparing any slight or burden to the holocaust. especially the insurrection enthusiasts. it's a showcase for their ignorance and they mention it for sheer shock value, holocaust as its name implies was the darkest chapter of the modern era. 6 million jews were exterminated and last are leaving us at enormous rate. fathers and grandfathers went to war to restore the world from tyranny. we must never forget. doesn't mean constant mentions by freshman congresswoman or disgraced former general. phrase never forget doesn't apply to you if you have never taken the time to learn about the

. >> then there is mike flynn, he loves talking about the holocaust as he did just this weekend.en to this remember please, the sky was the national security adviser in the white house, right before he got in trouble for selling out his country. >> you're going to wake up one day, and you will be you know, in a metaphorical where you will be told to get on a train. like we saw in the late thirties, and the forties, and nazi germany. all of that tragedy, all the people who got on that train ended up going to their deaths. i ain't getting on that train, i'll take a bullet before i get on that train. >> so that's mike flynn. and just a thought here, it's probably best if people just stop comparing any slight, any burden, to the holocaust. especially the insurrection and through this, while yes it's often a showcase for their ignorance, and they mention it for the sheer shock value. the actual holocaust as its name implies was the darkest chapter of the modern era. 6 million jews were exterminated, the last of the survivors are leaving us at an alarming rate. our fathers and grandfat

then-vice president biden had directed the russia investigation, and directed us to investigate mike flynnthey specifically pointed to a meeting in the oval office where people were alleging this had happened. well, i had been in that meeting, and i knew that didn't happen. so i did also want to be able to get the truth out there. >> o'donnell: so here you are, just diagnosed with breast cancer, and you feel like you have to go and tell, not only the congress but the world, the truth. >> right. not ideal timing. >> o'donnell: how did you manage it all? >> it was just a few days since i'd gotten the diagnosis, and i would find, as i was trying to get ready for this testimony, i would find myself googling the survival rates for papillary cancer, or different treatments. you know, you couldn't-- i couldn't help but be very distracted by that. >> o'donnell: the type of breast cancer yates had is rare, and she needed a double mastectomy. >> so, i testified in the senate judiciary committee. a couple of weeks later, spoke at the democratic national convention. and then the day after that, went i

kennedy: mike flynn. >> exactly but the difference, there's a judicial proceeding get, they have a specificd him and that's a 20 year sentence bounty, that's a big deal but the accessory after the fact is what i love more because in that case, if you know someone to have committed an offense against the u.s. and you receive, or comfort or assist them in preventing apprehension, back in be even a small amount, even then you are on the hook for half of the sentence or life, 15 years so that's an easier charged to prove and also a lot broader. you could put a lot of things under that container of accessory after the fact to me that's exactly what they are doing simply by existing every day in their skin and not helping, they have a lot to answer for. kennedy: let's say they find brian laundrie, would it be hard fbi investigators to prove his parents lied to them and proof they were aiding their son and he's alive and using a burner phone to talk to their mom? >> it determines it depends if they are saying if it's i'm sorry, it's my fault but when you look at the three adults versus a son plead

i spent an hour today talking to general mike flynn, who got his life destroyed by the doj because they don't like his politics, but that is allowed to continue. what is left in the country, really? >> what we are seeing is any time this administration doesn't like opposition, doesn't like a political point of view, they try to silence it and they are willing to use federal law enforcement power to do it. but to use it against parents, things are getting really crazy when they are using it against parents of children with a lineup at a school board meeting, they want to express their concerns. they elect these people by the way. they elect the school board and now they can't even speak without being investigated? it is insane. >> tucker: that is such a good point, committees are elected officials. if you believe in democracy, which apparently nobody does, should be accountable to the people who elect them. you make a very smart -- thank you for pushing back on this. i think it's important and i appreciate it. >> thank you. >> ian prior, a former spokesman for the doj, he knows a lot abo

december 18th, a wild meeting in the oval office i broke at the time about sidney powell and mike flynnh the ceo of overstock arguing that trump can actually seize the voting machines and rerun the election. he doesn't go with that. a number of advisers were arguing against it. it was a very emotional meeting. trump, according to eastman, reaches out and says, please give me this, you know, plan for how you do this. now, trump doesn't typically ask for memos that way. so i'm a little skeptical that the conversation went quite that way. but he does produce this piece of paper, and that became the basis for what trump was using to push pence to not certify the election for joe biden and to certify it for trump. the thing about the memo is the original plan was this required alternate slates of electors from these states. no state put such an alternate slate forward. suddenly the conversation a couple of days beforehand and in a meeting january 4th with eastman, trump, pence, pence's counsel and chief of staff becomes, well, can you delay it. that was clearly the backup plan. . >> a man wh

everybody from trump national security advisor mike flynn to trump's first attorney general, jeff sessions, to trump's campaign chairman and jared and his son donald jr. all had these communications and contacts with people connected to the russian government. they all tried to keep them secret. then they all lied about them when asked. it also emerged that during the campaign the trump organization was trying to develop a major building project in moscow. that would have been the biggest building project in donald trump's life. publicly, he lied about that. he said he had no dealings related to russia whatsoever. but like literally the night of one of the republican primary debates, he signed legal documents about pursuing his trump tower in moscow. so russia is doing all this stuff to help trump and hurt clinton. turns out that trump has all of these connections to russia that he's trying to keep secret and then lying about, him and all the people around him. so that's the nutshell of what happened there. and, yeah, you put those two things together and, duh, of course an investigation w

not patriotic to appoint a national security adviser who likes to be called general misha, that's mike flynn. it is not patriotic when that pardoned official calls for martial law. it is not patriotic to try to sabotage an american election nor to claim victory after a defeat. it is not patriotic to try to end democracy. a nationalist might do all of these things, but a nationalist is not a patriot. a nationalist encourages us to be our worst and then tells us that we are the best. that was from the new edition -- the new graphic edition of "on tyranny" by professor timothy snyder. proffers professor of history at yale university. it's been a multiyear best seller. the new graphic edition is quite beautiful, updated. it's in book stores as of yesterday. thank you for being here tonight. >> my pleasure. >> you wrote the original edition in response to what you saw happen in the 2016 election helping americans identify patterns that other countries, european countries had gone through. you wrote in the l.a. times this week that you've also observed the book inspiring protesters and resistance

trump pardoned quite a few criminals, there's mike flynn in a picture. he pardoned him, too. through stuff with trump that politically is like the analysis to the chaos in haiti. telling people that the election was stolen or wasn't stolen, trump tried to make people think that democracy doesn't work, because the election process doesn't work. trump lost the election. we had a coup launched on our government, something you see in a banana republic. >> we hear you. >> and yet, he's still -- bannon's not in jail where he should be. >> congressman steve cohen, thank you for being here. sorry about that tennessee loss yesterday. >> well, certainly, it was bad -- even worse, i think, was the demonstration of the fans. they were acting more like they were in port-au-prince. >> yikes. >> yeah. >> not a pretty scene at all. thank you, congressman. >>> updates on that apparent ambush outside a houston nightclub that killed a deputy and injured two others. who they are and what we know about the suspect, next. are an about the suspt,ec next. ♪ ♪ ♪ hey google. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ clerk: hello,

i understand from former justice department officials that mike flynn flipped before you could sit down and close the door. they're really more afraid of donald trump's, he can't even tweet anymore. his misses from the carrier pigeon than going to jail? >> again, that's why a serious threat of criminal prosecution, of criminal referral is necessary. i do agree with you. if you get them to a moment where they really feel like there's a criminal threat here, they'll sing just like flynn did. they'll flip in a second. except for bannon who already spent a little bit of time in the clink. none of these guys want to go to the other side. and so i do agree. if the threat is real, they will flip. as long as they think it might be a bluff. as long as they've got lawyers, you know, whatever hack lawyers in their ears telling them they got this executive privilege, they're fine as long as they all stick together, i think they'll at least try to kick the can as long as they can. >> i don't disagree with you about kicking the can and the shenanigans and i take your point about the iron fist. i want

he has been endorsed by mike flynn and spent time with trump on his golf course this summer.om wisconsin, has been endorsed by trump and house minority leader mccarthy. the daily beast after analying social media posts reported that he entered restricted area during the riot. another pleaded guilty in september to five charges arising from his entering the capitol during the insurrection. joining our conversation, tim miller, and hear litm -- harry litman. the words that come to my mind i cannot say on family friendly cable. i will turn this over to you, tim, miller, with a w-t-h. what do we do about this? >> you are going to me for the non-family friendly words, nicole? look, let me just back up just to explain how bad of a problem this is from the top down within the party. because some of these people in the articles you mention ready lunatics. lunatics have been running for office with no chance to win for -- you know, that's a tale as old as time. the problem with the republican party is much more serious than that. if you look at the top level at the senate you have peo

interviewed trump voters in 2016 and i asked a question, where do you get your information about mike flynncomey. none of them said fox news. not one of them were fox news viewers. they got all their news on facebook. >> yes, they did. it's become the most important distribution news some throughout the world and in this country, it's not as big as it is in other countries. that's one of the things this document is showing, the damage in other county tr is because of this. i did a great interview with the woman who won the nobel peace prize. she was the first person who started me down this path in 2015 showing me data that showed enormous attacks by the government on her and her company, an investigative online publication, i guess you would call it. one of the thing that was interesting, she had the data, warned mark zuckerberg, cherl sandburg. in the world right now, facebook is the internet. is the internet, period. >> i want to ask you to be prescriptive for us. we're going to talk more about facebook's future as congress tries to figure out how and if to regulate it. and the news that

. >> mike flynn had already been guilty of essentially acting as a foreign agent while as the national security director. and then he ran around and was the point man for the most insane conspiracies about the election where he was pretty forthright, frankly, about the fact that he was supporting a coup that would keep donald trump in power when a lot of people kinds of dance around their coup support. look, i mean i think that, presumably n these sorts of conversations, the former president was grasping around for somebody that was going to tell him what they wanted to hear. i think what the committees wanted to see is not just, you know, what a certain aide may or may not have told him as far as preparing that famous video that he did many hours late where he congrats lated the great patriots that were storming the capitol. >> told them he loved them, we love you. >> yeah. told them he loved them. >> yeah. >> what other conversations might have been more extreme or other plans that might not have come to fruition might have happened. i think that's why those conversations are relevan

coming from invited by donald trump or rallied by him, were sort of, you know, poked and stoked by mike flynn and rudy giuliani and others -- it just had this massive effect of suppressing everyone's instincts to protect the country. and that's the best case scenario. the alternative, right, is that there was some sort of stir and some sort of winning whiting refusal to protect the capitol and the lawmakers. what are you thoughts when you heard rask ownership talking about following the money and following the thais between the rioters and the trump orbit? >> i think it is really important. we have discussed the need to go before, during, and after, to figure out what really happened around january 6th. i mean, this reporting that we are hearing from crew, this investigative reporting of the national park police. so that means from the lincoln memorial to the washington monument, all the way across the capitol grounds, there were people who were -- who were armed, who were demonstrating that they were prepared to engage in violence. and that was ier in the day. so i do think it's important fo
