That piece was one of the most popular on the New York Times website even today. Pl hardly unusual. Go to any liberal website, salon, slate, vox, and you wont find an entire racial group is on trustworthy and dangerous. This is a big change for the left. For most of the 20th century, liberals, and it was noble, argue that it was immoral tof reward or punish people based on their skin color. Individuals ought to be judged solely by the choices they make, anything less is bigotry. Liberals dont say that anymorel what happened . Ekow yankah is the author of the New York Times piece. A professor, Benjamin Cardozo school of law, and he joined us coming on. Thanks for having me. Tucker what struck me about this piece, a couple of different things, but the first thing was the generalizations about a racial group based on their race. And i grew up probably not so much older than you, in a world where overt expressions of that were not acceptable. You werent allowed to generalize on the basis of race because the assumption was each you judge each person by the choices he or she makes. I dont understand when it became okay to generalize about racial groups. To me its a strange way to put the question. The case that we all hope that we can be judged for who we are, i think while some people have the luxury to be raised only being told to look at individual people, it should be no surprise to you that black people, in particular black men have been taught forever that they have to be careful how they behave around white people, and the way they behave will be interpreted differently. When they misbehave it will be punished differently, that if they laughed too loud, if they walk into a nice store with all due respect, tucker, what was true for you has never been true for lots of people. He tucker there are a lot of ways to respond to that, one on a factual basis, and in truth, and a lot of places in this country the main threat that africanamericans face is not from white people, as you perfectly well know. But beyond that, the idea that you could understand a persons motives merely by knowing his race dehumanizes that person,u its the definition of racism, and you are engaging in it in the New York Times, and nobody says anything about it. I just felt it was worth pointing that out and asking you if you feel its okay to generalize about people youve never met, about whom you know nothing, beyond what they look like, and say i know who you are and what your believe. I first want to respond the first comment i think is ought not be let lie. While its true that of courseal people of color facete threats from other people of color, its also true that white people face the overall makeup for my people, that is people face threats from who they live beside. But i think its fair to point out that we oughtnt be distasteful and say things like the great threat, it does feed a certain narrative that we dont want. Tucker why does the truth ever feed an ugly narrative . The truth is worth telling for its own sake because its true. T youre welcome to tell the truth, but it is deeply suspicious that people are so quick to say things like the main threat facing africanamericans is otherer africanamericans, but you never hear people say the main threat facing white people is white people. Tucker i dont know, people say that. The point is you dont face a threat from individuals who made individual choices. We should be honest, and not pretend that there is a phrase like white on white violence. That phrase doesnt exist. Tucker okay, what we can invent it here. W the point im making is that you should never generalize about people on the basis of their skin color, because it reduces them to the sum of their skin color, and that is the definition of racism, and you are engaging in it in this piece, and i dont think its helpful, i think its wrong. Just entirely denied that what i said was you should generalize and dislike people because of their skin color. What i do think is true is that in the world in which things have gotten evermore dangerous for people of color, it is in fact the case that that undermines our ability to trust each other across racial bounds. Here is whats true, or at least heres what i wrote. Not that white people are unavailable for friendship, but in this world it is up to our white friends and allies to bes sure to stand up for those who are under attack. If i want to prove that im the kind of person who can be your friend, that means that when something is actually threatening you actually have to be there for you. Tucker again, you are making generalizations across racial groups. So you say, for example, i will have to discuss with my boys whether they can truly be friends with white people. History has provided little reason for people of color to trust white people. I have profound doubts that friendship with white people as possible. Thats absolutely right. Tucker if i were to write i was mugged as a pizza delivery boy and i told my children that they should Never Trust Anyone who looks like the people who mugged me, i would never dor that, i think it would be immoral, but it would be the definition of racism, because i would be equating the people who mugged me with everyone else who looks like them. I think that thats the only part of the article you read they might sound like that, but of course the article has a much richer argument. And the argument they make is, look, in a country where it turns out that when the most Vulnerable People of color are under threat, those who they count on are nowhere to be seen, or at least for some group of people, and i speak explicitly about the political environment we are in today. If we have a president who marshalls forces of hatred and anger and divisiveness and frankly just danger, quite asidd from who he is, im not particularly interested in who he is. If the people who call themselves your or friends are not going to push back against that, then maybe you can tell me as i should trust those people. I guess what youre saying is people who dont agree with their politics can be your friend, which i think is an unfortunate conclusion to reachn but the one you articulate here. Ou we were making again, for the third time, generalizations based on race, this is not a defense of donald trump, merely an acknowledgment of the fact that he received africanamerican votes than anybody since 2004. Thats not a huge number, but thats tens of thousands of people. Are they in the same category . Cannot trust them . I dont really understand. If youre saying you cant trust trump voters, fine, but white people . Thats a grotesque generalization. Im a little worried that you keep reading the same parts without you make it seem as though the entire piece was just that paragraph. Tucker its the title of the piece. Separateag graphs. I have no problem standing behind the title of the piece, but it is worth pointing out, as i have again and again, what the piece says is when those who count themselves as your friend see that others put you in danger, it is their opportunity to prove they are your friend. Lets just speak plainly about this. You have children like i do, right . Tucker i do. If your daughters were, i dont know, friendly with a group of people and it just turned out that repeatedly wheno they went out and your daughters were in danger, those group of young men just disappeared, i take it at some point he would tell your daughters, its fine i to be friendly with them, but these are not your friends. Tucker because im not a racist, what i wouldnt say is anybody of a certain race falls into that category, i would never do that. If one of my daughters was mugged by someone of a certain color i would never say to my daughter thats more evidence you can Never Trust Anyone who looks like that because i would be putting race hatred in my children, as you are. Obviously i denied that. What i said over and over which we live in a country where we shouldnt pretend that these divides have not consistently been on racial grounds. We see that over and over and over. When black people are in danger when black people are in danger from, say, addiction. We get policing. When white people are in danger of it, they get rehabilitation. When black people dont haveti jobs, we get stories about whyhy we are making the wrong choices. When white people dont have jobs we get a president ial campaign about the forgotten class. To be fair just tol conclude i think im going to go ahead and i will finish and then im happy to hear your point of view. If its the case that we live in a country where these dividest have always consistently been racial, i think its not only delusional, but it would be dangerous not to teach my boys that when they walk out in the world it will be a world thatt treats them differently. Tucker should i say the same thing to my children, there are africanamerican law professors who dislike you and you should dislike him back . All africanamerican law professors . I would never say that, because that is grotesque. It is race hatred. You keep saying the same thing and i keep trying to tucker i cant get past it. Apparently. What ive said over and over is look, what matters and people are in danger, if you are going to say that you are the kind of person they can trust as a friend, you have to step up. Is the case that these friendship lines break down on racial lines, financial return to step up because of these racial lines. I know that in my school there is a tense point because everybody hates the filipino student, when the filipino student walks into my area, im going to make sure that he knows im an ally. Im not going to disappear when hes in danger and then placate myself by saying im his friend. You cant have it both ways. Tucker i agree with you. Its when you implicate people you dont know simply because of how they look that you cross the line. I will ask you another question and let you answer it quickly, which is, how would you feel if i told my children in an oped in the New York Times what you told your children, but the colors were reversed . Can i ask you a question . Tucker of course. Will you teach your girls to be cautious around men until they prove that they are men that can be trusted . Tucker men, but not men of a certain race, because i dont think that the races are as different as you think they are. You think one is good and one is evil, thats what you said in your piece. I didnt at all say that, and if you can cite that i would be very happy to see it. What i did say i did sayld that. Tucker i dont know if we are making headway. I asked you a question, can you answer it . Forgive me, you ask your question and i returned the question, so i wanted to conclude on that. In the same way that you will teach your daughters to be careful around men until they have proven that they can be gentlemen, if somebody saidn oh, my god, thats outrageous, Tucker Carlson is teaching his daughters that men are evil, that would be laughable. Forgive me. Tucker we acknowledge differences between the sexes, but not significant once between the races. Thats on what you were doing. I dont think it is at all. I find it remarkable that you can live in the america we end and not see that racial lines are not equally divided. Tucker thats not what im saying, im saying would you be okay with me writing this pieces to my children because the races were reversed . D . The facts are different. Tucker all right, got it. Thats absurd. If i dont teach my boys how to be cautious, how to be careful, how to be perceived in the right way, im not just risking theire feelings being hurt, im risking their bodies being broken. Tucker should i teach my kids that . You dont teach your daughters to be cautious until they can be sure that the menha around them are trustworthy . Tell me. Tucker thats not what the conversation is about, its not about sex, its about race. I dont teach them that there are dramatic differences between the races. Im not a bigot. Ac to be sure, its fine for you to care for your daughters and make sure that they are healthy and well, but if i care for my sons in the same way tucker we are out of time. Thank you, professor, i appreciate you coming on and explaining that. Thank you. Jeremy hunt is an active u. S. Army officer, a leadership strategist for themy douglas leadership institute, and he joins us tonight. Thanks a lot for coming on. Great to be on with you. Tucker great to be on with you. It seems to me, the reason i want to do that segment is it feels like theres a lot of, to be blunt, racial tension in america and i want to make sure that everyone with a public voice is doing his or her best to make it better. And part of that means treating people as individuals rather than as caricatures, i think. Absolutely. S everything i say on the air is just my personal views. I just find it incredible that here we have a law professor spewing out such divisive rhetoric, stoking fear. When i was young, my father taught me the basic principle, he said especially as a christian, i should love myy neighbor regardless of their race, that i should strive to live in harmony with peopleia regardless of what they look t like. These are basic principles thate people learn in grade school. How is it that im having to tell a law professor not to make these generalizations of entire groups of people . Tucker it does seem likeou that is the line. You have to keep alive the possibility that just because people look alike, doesnt mean that they are alike. You know what i mean . I look like there were a lot of terrible white people througa history, i would hate to take responsibility for their crimes. I want to take responsibility for what i do and not what anyone else does, that seems fair to me. Exactly. The more we kind of engage andoe entertain these conversations about the whole entire groups oh people are racist, the more we are actually playing into the hands of actual racists. If you were a white in this country, your guaranteed news coverage, guaranteed to talk about all these great things, and we play right into their hand. D. We are basically carrying out their goal of dividing the United States. It is deeply disturbing. Tucker when we start believing in collective guilt . You are responsible for things done by people youve never met. When did that i thought the whole point of america was that we dont believe that. You look at after the civilhe rights movement, the new kind of protest politics. It took on this new line of t basically everyone is going to feel this collective guilt and we will trade you some type of moral authority in exchange for making you feel better about your guilt. Its ridiculous, its divisive, and instead of viewing people based on the constant of their character, we are still seeingin this kind of movement to try to basically make displays of social justice, and make displays that we are helping the innercity community or whatever it might be without actually looking to see if these policies are actually having a positive effect on our country. Tucker is creating wounds that will not heal for a longct time unfortunately. Thank you very much. Good to see you. Will the House Republican tax plan actively help them or not . We will put that question to a top House Republican, one of the people who wrote the legislation. Thats next. Tucker Congressional Republicans attempting to hammer out a tax reform bill that a majority of congress is willing to pass. Who would win and who would lose under a final compromise . Will the bills do anything to help the people in america were under the most stress . Congressman kevin brady represents texas, the chairman of the house ways and means committee, a big deal in washington. He joins us now, whats going on . T thanks for having me. Tucker under this proposed legislation, the white house is saying the corporations will get a tax cut in order to create more jobs and raise wages. Would there be a way to structure the legislation or corporations dont get a tax cut unless they demonstrably raise wages and create jobs . The key here is people tend to think of the prophets, does that grow my paycheck . T the other word that we are actually focusing on was productivity. Businesses arent invested in them, theyve been on a decadelong slide. They are not investing in new plants, new equipment, that is what drives productivity. That gives you the bigger paychecks. We are going all in for growth for businesses. Our local companies can compete and anywhere in the world, but most importantly, for the first time in history we unleash Business Investment by letting them immediately write off from their taxes that new investment plans or equipment, software and technology, it really drives main street jobs. Tucker businesses are sitting on a huge amount of cash, stock market is at record levels. Productivity is good but we still have a consistent number of people not working. Is there any way to tie their benefits to that . To wages . Investment drives productivity. Weve been on a decadelong slide for worker productivity. Used to be one of the best, we have really slid in a big way. Thats why paychecks are going up. The other thing is we cant compete internationally anymore. I think 31st out of 35 of our major competitors. They have just flown by us, so we are losing jobs in research and manufacturing overseas and the worst thing for your paycheck is to see it go overseas. This tax plan is all about leapfrogging america back into that lead pack. More importantly, unleashing all that local Business Investment that we just havent seen for far too long. Tucker so some peoples taxes are going to go up and you will see some people paying like carterlevel taxes, 55 all in, particularly in new york and california. The idea of someone paying a majority of his salary to the government, is that acceptable . I dont believe they will. We lower the rates at every level, double the standard deduction, brandnew family tax credit that more people can use than ever before. In every scenario i run up at every income level, people see tax relief, including in states like newew york. Tucker you dont see anybody at the end getting these taxes raised . Ta i believe every american will be better off, either with lower taxes or higher paychex going forward, and in high tax states, because we keep the mortgage deduction, the charitable deduction, the property Tax Deduction at twice the National Average adds, in my view, to tax relief. Tucker i certainly want that to be true for sure, but Mitch Mcconnell the other day said nobody in the middle class will see his taxes go up and he walked it back and said actually there may be some people. That scared people. What i know is this, when you double that standard deduction, lower the rates at every level, create this new family tax credit, that provides relief across the board and the joint committee on tax said there is income tax relief at every income level. Tucker if it turns out not to be true when the senate is done with it, do you think the president will sign it . I do think the president will sign this bill, but i will tell you this as well. We are getting ready historically to pass tax reform in the house this week. We are republicans, we like to make improvements at every step, so we are continuing, as the senate moves forward, as we Work Together for that final bill. Im looking to make improvements in tax relief at every level. We are not even done yet. M this step in the house really moves us to another big step forward. We are not to a final bill yet. Tucker your pledge as chairman of the house and waysys communes and mide nobody is going to wind up with less money if this passes . In my belief between these tax cuts and higher paychex and growth, whether you are that worker on main street, or that Small Business on main street, you were going to see more in your paycheck. You will see more in your pocketbook. Tucker im rooting for that, of course. Chairman, thank you. Thanks. Tucker the trump dossier helped spark the National Federal investigation, was it all a dirty trick . We talk to someone who has it details about that. Stay tuned. Liberty mutual stood with me when i was too busy with the kids to get a repair estimate. Liberty did what . Yeah, with Liberty Mutual all i needed to do to get an estimate was snap a photo of the damage and voila voila i wish my Insurance Company had that. Wait hold it. Hold it boys. Theres supposed to be three of you. Wheres your brother . Wheres your brother . Hey, wheres charlie . Charlie . you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you. Liberty stands with you™ Liberty Mutual insurance. Tucker this is a fox news alert. Weve learned tonight that attorney general Jeff Sessions has ordered federal prosecutors to evaluate the uranium one deal for possible irregularities. That evaluation could result in the appointment of a special counsel to investigate it. Sessions order was given in response to pressure by the republicans. Uranium one of course pay the Podesta Group to lobby on its behalf. A few weeks ago we told you that the podesta people have become the center of independent counsel Robert Muellers investigation into russian influence on american politics. It was widely disbelieved and for that reporting, the Podesta Group threatened to sue us, threatened us with legal action for saying anything. Since then not much has gone well for them. They were implicated in Robert Muellers indictment of paulny manafort two weeks ago, than 20 podesta quit the firm in response. He blamed us on his way out. Late last week, his replacement, kimberly announced she was leaving too. Now its recorded that the Podesta Group itself will be shut down by the end of the year. She reportedly told the employees to clean up the dust of the company will stop paying them this week. And they told us it wasnt true, and yet it turned out it was. The firm behind the Infamous Trump dossier is ready to testify before the congress. Glenn simpson, the former reporter who founded fusion gps put that money from the dnc on the Hillary Clinton campaign, we now know, in order to create the dossier. The dossier of course was full of salacious but still unproven gossip, and it was used in theie end to justify a farreaching federal investigation that has turned washington upside down and basically stopped all Productive Work here. Kim strassel, she has written extensively on this. Recently she called the trump dossier one of the dirtiest political tricks in history, she joins us. Thanks for coming on. Thanks for having me, tucker. Tucker you called it a dirty trick. It was obviously Opposition Research. Was it, do you think, qualitatively different from conventional Opposition Research . Ar thats a great place to start. Calling it a dossier gives it too much mystique. This is an opponent research, but an even lower quality than those research documents. All campaigns do this, but usually you take up driving under the influence conviction, or that you didnt pay your taxeses one year, you planted in thee press, it makes a candidate look bad. At this is a document based on unnamed, anonymous russian sources apparently. They have never been proven, a lot of them have been disprovenn but then heres what they weree particularly clever. They want, and rather than give it to the press, they sent it to the fbi, and then theyt, briefed the press, and then the press was able to claim that this was intelligence that the fbi possessed, and it gave it some air of credibility. Tucker this bundle of Opposition Research changed american political history, and not in the ways it normally would. You are just saying that this really is responsible for this Chain Reaction that has paralyzed washington ever since. Look at what happened. The democrats like to say this document wasnt even used during the election, not true. We know that christopher steele, who put it together, he has testified in Court Documents that he briefed the press in september. Yahoo news came out with a huge story saying that the fbi was in possession of the intelligence showing potential collusion between the Trump Campaign and the russian government. The headlines were dominated by this, and the question that we still have yet to know, we know the fbi relied on this in some regard, but to this document actually inspire the fbi to end up wiretapping a politicalal campaign . Which is no small deal, by the way. A tucker im unclear. I think thats right, thats the key question, that would be thei most shocking effect of it, because that is so obviously corrupt. I dont understand what we dont know whether that happened or not. The fbi has been playing hardball about letting house investigators see their files. Supposedly theyve agreed to let them go in, they have started to put some things, make available to house investigators, but all of this should be the thing i think some people dont understand is that when you were dealing with the foreign Intelligence Surveillance court, its not like you put in a request and they say no. Its a backandforth discussion. Somewhere in the fbi is a big file that explains exactly what the fbi was putting forward to the court as justification to go ahead with the tapping of carter page or paul manafort. Tucker the house oversees the fbi. I dont understand how the fbi can just ignore it. If i get subpoenaed by house investigators, do i just give them the finger and go to barbados . How are they allowed to ignore that . Its a separate problem thatt we have, the house is having trouble more and more with its enforcement authority, and that is in essence what the Justice Department did. They said we are just not complying with your subpoena for a while. They now appear to be putting some things out, but from what i understand, not everything that they need to put out, and heres the funny thing, every time they have an excuse for not giving it, they say its because the special counselor mueller. N if special counsel mueller is actually doing was entirely because the fbi misused a dossier, all the more reason for house investigators to be looking at how this started. Tucker its unbelievable. I will try that on my taxes next year. I just dont feel like paying, sorry. L im going to pass this year. Thank you for that, that was really interesting. Were talking about the tax bill. Turns out america hands out billions in tax breaks and Illegal Immigrants in the companies will employ themt for years. How does that happen and can it be stopped . Details on thats next. Weve got auto insurance, homeowners insurance. Had an accident with a vehicle, i actually called usaa before we called the police. Usaa was there handson very quick very prompt. I feel like were being handled as people that actually have a genuine need. Were the webber family and we are usaa members for life. Usaa, get your insurance quote today. You imagine who i am. What i look like. Where i live. But look past the things that wont make a difference to find someone who will. Search for greatness. Search indeed. Tucker Illegal Immigrants are not supposed to be in the United States, thats why they are called Illegal Immigrants, but they get an awful lot of breaks. In some states they are drivers licenses. Susu in california more than half of all drivers license issued 12 illegal aliens. Free health care in hospitals across the country. Several schools give Free Legal Services to fight deportation. But there is more in the United States people here illegally or also the beneficiaries of billions in tax breaks. Thats actually true, amazingly. Dan stein joins us tonight. This is one of those things where its hard to believe its true. How was it true . We would like the irs to stop giving away taxpayer money with people who have no right to be in the country, but it has been going on for years. Earned income tax credit, additional child tax credit. One of the things weve been working on is trying to deny businesses the right to deduct the cost of hiring people here illegally as a disincentive. Tucker businesses just just to go back, they can deduct the cost . Its a business expense. The great thing all the new idea act, steve king was just trying to get this on, brady. Couldnt get it in there, but basically said businesses couldnt deduct the cost of hiring unauthorized workers. That would take billions and billions of dollars away from the incentive that we all subsidize for hiring illegal workers. But of course they did put in the tax bill a new ban on people who dont have valid Social Security cards on getting the earned income tax credit any the additional child tax credit. Tens of billions of dollars going overseas claiming theyey have dependents overseas, youre working illegally, trying to put a stop to that. Can we get it to stick in the senate . Thats the big issue. Tucker who is lobbyingrk against that . Ca immigration is a big income transfer program. Irs is in your business and my business, but they dont care t enough to validate whethertr someone has a right to be in the country before they send these earned income tax creditssi outcome additional child tax credit. Sometimes people claim from mexico they have ten markets back in mexico, nobody has ever seen them. The irs is printing checks. Requiring a valid Social Security card and number instead of just taking the socalled itin numbers, taxpayer numbers, it is an important step. In the end what we need is the irs to work with dhs to verify an alien status at the time of e employment and sanction employers and deny them the Tax Deduction, tax deductibility of people working here illegally. You think the stuff would be common sense. 20 years weve been working on this thing and we couldnt get w the new idea act on the deductibility in the house plan. Tucker there are massive business interests against it. Can i ask you a question that ive been meaning to ask you for a year . After 9 11, my impression was that using fake federal identification, or state identification, became a really big deal. I interviewed people after 9 11, i interview people all the time who brag about being here illegally, using fake federal documents. Under obama, all the enforcement stopped and actually states have administered lax standards. What we are trying to do is rollback what the Obama Administration did, they required securid, the real i. D. And other things. The irs doesnt care to check. Its not their money, they are just giving away your money, so they dont want to see the check. Tucker can i get a fake passport now . . Put in any old number, checks are coming in, they sent one woman in arlington like 10 million in taxpayer money. She filed like 170 different tax returns under different fake names and Social Security numbers on behalf of people working illegally. Lets be honest, immigration is about income transfer. Businesses make the money, subsidize labor, wages are driven down. A lot of powerful interests fight for the transfer program. Its costing us taxpayers billions and billions of dollars. We can fix this. We are working to fix this, and we have some of it in the hospital. T how to make it stick in the senate, anybodys guess. We tucker this is not what people voted republican, to see this happen. Thank you. U. S. Army according today ans unannounced policy that began in august. The army will be granting waivers that will allow people to enlist, even if they have a history of depression, even selfmutilation. Retired army colonel and psychiatrist, medical doctor joins us tonight. Thanks for coming on. Its a pleasure. Tucker is this a real story . It is a real story, but there is historical context. Since world war i, the army and the military has waived and hows many people he should bring on, what should be the a sessionon standard, what should be whether they are qualified, and if they are not qualified, whether they should grant a waiver. You look at their record of saying this is in a stellar person, lets make an exception. The pendulum goes back and forth. Back in 2009 with the increase in suicides, the department of the army task force that we will cut all waivers for suicide attempts, et cetera. Now the pendulum appears to be shifting again to about people that in many cases should not come in to possibly come in, although with a waiver. I tucker what jumped out and it was not the fact that troubled people go into the military. Wpe theres a long tradition of that and becoming really impressive while serving in the military,y, which is a great thing it was the Mental Illness part, because when you buy a firearm you have to sign it saying you have not been diagnosed with Mental Illness. The idea people who would be disqualified from buying a gun to carry a gun seems odd to me. Theres a few more hoops toto jump than just having a mental disorder and being disqualified from carrying a firearm. It may mean that you have to be committed to a mental hospital. And remember also theres a wide spectrum of mental disorders. H on one side theres the psychotic disorders, you are out of touch with reality, youre crazy, schizophrenia. On the other side theresso posttraumatic stress disorder, which a lot of soldiers have s served in iraq and afghanistan have and dont necessarily impair their judgment or their ability, it means they have nightmares and intrusive thoughts, which by the way a lot of journalists do too because t they go through the same kind of traumas. This policy is trying to figure out where is the cut line. O unfortunately i think the cut line has gone too far towards allowing people with selfmutilation, which often is symptomatic of something called a borderline personality disorder, or bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder should not be the military, because they ofte, need to be a lithium. Lithium is a medication you have to monitor, you have to take blood levels. If you are driving down a desert in iraq in a tank and you were getting dehydrated, as d often happens, you cant be worried about what is my lithium level. A im not sure where this came from. T i hope the military will reconsider it in the light of some of the publicity, because i think it has gone too far. Y tucker it sounds like they are stretched really thin, which is a scary thing. That is true, and when we are stretched thin either in time of war or 16 years after 9 11, then the standards tend to drop. I think one of the things we can think about is one of the reason they are stretched thin is too many young kids are fat, they dont meet the medical requirements. If we could have more of a National Program to get peopleca to become fit mentally and physically we could really improve the recruiting number. Tucker thank you for that, i appreciate it. Thank you. Tucker government declaring war on the louisiana landowner for the sake of a frog that doesnt exist. At the landowner shares his riveting tail next. Tucker edward is a land owner in a state of louisiana. Like most people, its his land, he would like to use it the way he wants to. O. The federal government hasld stopped him from doing that, and all for the sake of an invisible frog. Hi in 2011, he was informed that is 1500 acres have been designated a potential habitat for something, we are not making this up, called the dusky gopher frog. It is not actually live in louisiana, assuming it exists at all. Edward joins us tonight. Thanks for coming on. Thank you for having me. I appreciate it. Tucker did i mistake that, have you ever seen a dusky gopher frog on your property . Ive never seen one, because its not there and it has not been seen in the whole state of louisiana according to the fish and Wildlife Service since 1967. Tucker this would basically be like claiming you had you had sabertooth tigers on your land. Why did they claim it was there . They claimed it was there because they want to have us give over the land so that they can cut every tree on 1500 acres and turn it into a frog resort. They would absolutely have to maintain it every year, keep the land burned every year, and by the way, we own the property all around it, so would you want to live near a property that is being burned every year . I dont think so. The frog is extinct. And it will never come back. Tucker im struck by the irony. These are environmentalist in the name of environmentalism telling you they want to cut all your trees down and set fire to your land . Thats environmentalism . Thats correct. That is absolutely correct. Tucker thats demented, what did you say . What i said was you are not going to take my land unless you pay me for it, and they wont pay me for it. They have certified through their own economists that the loss of value to us is 34 million, and they refuse to pay for it because it is not a taking legally. Tucker but they want to cut your trees down and burn your land in the name of protecting an extinct frog . A frog that does not live there, and has not been there for many, many, many years, probably even before 67. What their official literature says is that the frog has not been seen in the entire state of louisiana since 1967, not to mention my land. Tucker just for our viewers at home who might fear they have a dusky gopher frog or two on their property, what is the recourse here . What you do when this happens . The recourse is you have to go through the motions of going through a show trial, which they call a public hearing, where they gave me 5 minutes to speak, along with a lot of very strange people who got up and talked about the frog might cure cancer one day, and silly things like that. You then have to suffer through a long period of comments. They issued the rule as they said they would, and then you have to sue them in federal court to reverse it, and then if you get an adverse ruling, you take it to the court of appeals. Weve done both of that, and we are now going to the u. S. Supreme court in the hopes that they will see common sense and logic, and the fact that this s law does not actually allow that, and hopefully reverse the lower court decisions. Tucker unbelievable, environmentalist want to cut your trees down and burn your land. Thank you, and godspeed, we are rooting for you. Thanks a lot. Thank you very much, tucker. , tucker thanks.
