0 usfl five to live from small screen to the ukraine to be elected president thrust onto the world stage ready to fight for the lives of his citizens and this sunday at 10:00 pm eastern on fox news channel. we lc good evening and welcome te tucker carlson . certainly happy fridayr son . y. in retrospect, joe biden s first term policy agenda seems very optimistic, almosty comically optimistic. shortly i before a his inauguration, biden announced something he called the build h back better agenda. ofof course we mocked it at the time, but looking back , it was in some ways a hopeful document. a very must have been rich country back then and by back then we mean last yeare there weren t a lotwe of essentials in biden s agenda. the first a three things that ay normal nation needs and thinks are food,ssively water and energy. that s the standard in china, for example, every government policy, foreign and domestic is designed above all to secure adequate reserves of food, oo water and energ
rosenstein that donald trump has this tendency of eating people s souls. whose souls are you worried about? i was worried very much at the time about rosenstein who praised president trump s commitment to the rule of law. people were asking me how is that possible. and then to see bill barr, a guy who knows that institution act the wayth he is acted, i don t know for sure, but i ve seen donald trump warp people around him.p that s what i meant by eating hisme soul. he wraps you, people close to him, in, a cocoon of falsehood and you tell yourself a story i think that i can survive this and i will makevi compromises somehow to get through this. and it s too late. he s got you fully wrapped up. do you worry about that happening with durham? ain little bit, yeah. i mean, john durham, i don t know him really well, but he has a strongt professional relationship. that s the only thing he has to losein here. so that should give us some comfort that he will be guided only by theor facts.
are democrats seizing on this ukraine phone call, the withholding of aid, what s happening with the g president interaction with ukraine in a wayth that they didn t seize on thedn mueller report? thisle has gone so much faster. this has been a matter we are i believe on day 70 or 71 of the impeachment inquiry. that is light speed fast to get from we just found out about this, we re going to open an inquiry, to this report is being submitted to the judiciary committee and articles of impeachment could be drawn up before the end of the year. we are already in december. that s a big question. i don t have the whole answer. we can ask different democrats and different members of congress because some said mueller was enough and others didn t. may i gesture an answer? sure. i think part of the answer is when bob mueller didn t find an election-related crime, i think a lotec of democrats paused and said is this the one to go to the mat on, even though obstruction is serious and bill
michelle obama, and kamala harris of california, all three black women. what struck me about this was the way it was framed and the wayth so many of these conversations are framed.ri they primarily turn on questions of race and gender. is that the future of american politics? identity politics? it certainly is the future of the democratic party. the present of the democratic party looks at things that way. being a woman and a minority would be an important credential for a nomination in the democratic party. it doesn t mean you will get the nomination, but it gives you a leg up. it gave hillary clinton a leg up and enabled her to fight off the rather significant challenge from a geriatric socialist in the person of bernie sanders. one might have thought that would be easy but such is the democratic party. it wasn t easy at all. looking ahead to 2020, whoever it is, is likely to have quite leftist credentials in order to touch the heart of the democratic party, which is far to the lef
there s going to be concern, of course, from the white house and from all americans about what happens next and will there be a peaceful transition to democracy and what kind of government will take over. i think those are the concerns that they re weighing and trying to manage as best they can. in the end, as they have said repeatedly, it s the people of egypt that will decide this rather than the united states determining what s going to happen. mark, has the united states handled this issue out of egypt, now two weeks old, in a proper manner? as mike was describing to us, an evolution of response coming from the white house. i m not sure that we ve had any alternatives to the wayth been managed and i think that s especially true because obviously the key institution from the very beginning of this situation has been the egyptian army. our greatest leverage comes through relationships that we have from our military to their military. so i m not sure we have any alternatives. the
