this quote. to us, family means putting your arms around each other and being there. that s the truth from a smart lady and that is our story for tonight. we ll see you back here tomorrow. tucker is next. tucker: good evening. welcome to tucker carlson tonight. sean hannity was named a client of michael cohen. we ll give you details of what happened. then you ll hear from sean himself ahead. first tonight, the full transcript of former fbi director james comey s interview with george stephanopoulos has been released. it s a massive interview clocking in at more than five hours. it s deeply revealing. by now you heard about what comey has had to say about donald trump and not very much of that was newsworthy it turned out. the real value of this interview is what it says about james comey. by the end you realize that
conversations. he said that trump is a traitor to america. that s the new standard. unlet you denounce putin behind closed doors, top law enforcement officials suspect you of disloyalty and accuse you that on television. it s a name for, this it s mccarthyism and scarier than anything that trump did with russia. finally for a guy that says he s not determined to be political, comey is highly political. he says in the interview with abc that he s greatly influenced by his wife. he says a number of occasions when she s weighed in on his job at doj including investigation of torture at abu grave. he said he listens carefully to his wife. given that, it s significant that his wife turns out to be a bitter hillary clinton partisan. watch. on saturday, january 21, masses of demonstrators take to the streets among them the family of james comey. my wife and girls marched in
and every other corner has a halal cart and if you don t celebrate it, you re racist. has there ever been a less intellectual class that our country does? mark steyn joins us with a verdict on that. well, i have studied the new yorker. i haven t read it in a long while. i can say this piece would never have run under harold ross or tina brown in the good old days. tucker: it s true. this sentence i love. this guy is upset because the restaurant s corporate purpose still begins with the words to glorify god. because god is so 2013. anthony kennedy ruled that god is out-moded and now you
