Ties to Vladimir Putin and cia director is Tea Party Congressman mike pompei owe. You got the bannon controversy. Now you have sessions. Flynn hasnt exactly gotten the most enthusiastic response either. Its really getting more and more disturbing and clear that donald trump is not trying to bring the country together with the moves he is making right out of the gate. Doesnt mitt romney look good to us now . Oh my gosh. Im an optimist too. This does not make me on at this misoptimistic. Thipisss me off. Saying he is morally unfit to serve as attorney general. Thanks for joining us tonight. My pleasure. You heard sessions but recently. One of the most unfair things i think i have ever read. Pure download from the dnc website. You say among many other things, sessions is a favorite of storm fronts, the White NationalistWeb Community founded by former klansman done black. Is there any storm front. Are you smearing him on endorsement of him. Im not saying that he is like a member of storm front or anything. What are you saying . Im saying he is a favorite of people who hold bigoted views. And thats not. By the way you dont like somebody says something nice about you are tainted by that . You look at the history and pattern of Jeff Sessions he has said things over the course of time. You said something really specific. You said he was endorsed by storm front. Im sure he would disavow that immediately. Why is that fair to write that. He hasnt disavowed it that i know of. So you think he agrees with storm front . I dont know. But the point that i would make about Jeff Sessions and the larger point of the column is americans should have a right to feel that they are going to be equally protected under the law. Jeff sessions over the course of time and i pointed out a lot of other things in that column has said and done things that should make people feel some people feel uncomfortable with the idea that he is going to treat them fairly under the law. Here is what people have a right to of the expectation that someone is going to throw out a charge thats substantiated. Not just by implication. The way you say it among other things im quoting now sewerly sessions wouldnt try to resegregated the American Armed forces in which you serve. Really . Jonathan, surely you wouldnt batter a child. What does that mean . You are right. Nobody is suggesting that he would resegregate the armed forces . Jeff sessions has been opposed to the Voting Rights act in the past. Is that the same as resegregating the American Armed forces thats appalling thing to say about somebody. Wait a second. Its not that far of a cry for some people. Has that suggestion ever come up . You wrote that. We are talking about the attorney general of the United States. No, we are talking about your column. You said. Were talking about the attorney general. You suggested that was even a possibility he would resegregate the u. S. Armed forces. I said he wouldnt. Well, you wouldnt beat your wife. However. You are attacking him but not directly. However, however, there are the armed forces of the United States is one the institutions that is most racially diverse, most ethnically diverse in our country, right . Right. Lots of people of all sorts of background in the United StatesArmed Services first integrated by hear truman way back when. All of those people who are not white people would have to have faith and the reason that came up is we are talking about a potential defense secretary appointment for him at some point should be able to have faith that their leader doesnt discriminate against them. You are fear mongering because there is literally no possibility that he wants to do that that he would suggest doing that or he would do it. You are fear mongering. You know who else very diverse place state of alabama. 2 a years. 25 africanamerican. Can you name in the 20 years he has served, 19 as senator single instance mistreated someone on the basis of his race, one . Senators dont typically walk around mistreating. You are calling him racist. I will give you example should worry people if they believe in the equal protection of the law. When he talks about immigration, he is a big antiimmigration guy. Wants to crack down on immigration. When president obama said he was going to put 2,000 minors in alabama. Here illegally. Children. Here illegally children in the state of alabama. Jeff sessions response was treat them, feed them and let them go. Im missing your point. Was the state not on the hook for feeding and clothing those kids . He was complaining about the idea that the state of alabama was going to have to feed and clothe children. Okay. Do you think that makes him a racist . Is that example of racism . I dont think i called him reyes. You called him racist nine times in the column. If were going to use the word. Basis of racism and you dont have one. You said whats recent. He is a u. S. Senator overwhelmingly reelected for 20 years and im asking of one instance where he has been racist. You dont have one. You downloaded some talking points from the dnc without any facts. I wrote that column before sessions was nominated. But this is totally hack job. You asked me for instances of him doing racist things. You dont have any, yeah. Wait a second, you asked me for recent examples your argument is that you can serve in the senate for 20 years and just because you served in the senate for 20 years you were elected to the senate you are not racist . Thats at odds with american history, sir. My argument is because you call someone racist which i didnt. Do you repeatedly and suggest that he has ties to storm front and might resegregate the armed forces. You might have some facts. I have some facts. You dont. In 1986 he called the naacp unamerican. Really because. He had done it. I think the naacp is a totally discredited group. To does that make me a racist . Lets get back to reality. You are not alone in saying this. He is quote beyond the ideological fringe. Thats true. Really . Because i actually looked up some of his views which im familiar with. Yeah. What percentage of americans believe we need to reduce the amount of immigration into this country. A think a lot of americans. Majority. A lot of americans believe that. You realize that immigration from mexico right now is actually going the other way. I realize that has nothing to do with the question i asked you. You said he is on the ideological fringe and my point is the fringe is far outside the mainstream. And by definition, that view is at the very center of the country. Its the opposite of the fringe. Thats one view that he holds. Okay. So why dont you, since were on tv live, give me an example of an opinion that he has that is on the ideological fringe. He wants to ban same sex marriage thats on the identical fringe. Is that true. Americans supporting reduced immigration. Majority of americans also support same sex marriage. The majority of u. S. State held research da on that exact subject and it passed. So like world are you in . The majority of look at polling. Majority of American People and by the way United States. Is he going to uphold the laws. At the moment im not arguing against gay marriage. Thats totally clear. Im saying to the out or beyond, as you put it ideological fringe you have to have a view held by a tiny minority and you have not named one. This is a slur against him. Now, wait a second. He believes that the Confederate Flag as he said a couple years ago represents a great chiefment of the United States. I dont even know what that means. But thats the basis upon which he says he is beyond the ideological. You are carrying water for the Democratic Party. Im not carrying water for anybody. I wrote about this before this even became an issue. They were going after him. Talking points. These are pure talking points. You go back it up. Write a column where you say he says. This this the policy he proposes and here is why it wrong. Instead its he is endorsed by storm front. He said the kkk was okay until he found out that they smoked pot. He actually said that he acknowledged that until a congressional hearing. Do you actually think that Jeff Sessions is prokkk . Is that what you are saying. No. What im saying is that he thought that they were okay. What he said was i told a joke about marijuana that was a bad joke. He never said im for the can kk. Well, i mean, if thats your standard. Thats his standard. Im scag really simple question. Do you think is he for the kkk or not . I dont know. You dont know . I dont know. Then why are you suggesting he is . All i said is what he said. Im just saying, look, engage the guy on the facts. Thank you for joining us. Thanks, tucker. I appreciate it all right. As we await for cabinet appointments from the president ial transition team, trump is headed to one of his Many Properties for the next few days. The president elect and his advisors will be working from the Trump National golf club in new jersey, a parade of sum cants will also be on hand including former governor mitt romney who will be there tomorrow. Thats where we find fox news correspondent bryan llenas. Whats going on down there. Good evening, tucker. President elect trump will be meeting mitt romney here in new jersey at his golf course at 1 00 p. M. Tomorrow to reportedly discuss a possible role for mr. Romney as his secretary of state and o to be a fly on the wall in that meeting. Romney has been an ardent antitrump guy from the beginning of this campaign. In march just skewering trump. Calling him a con man. Trump in return has called romney a loser, a choker, a failed candidate who isnt his friend. And now the two will meet. Trumps Campaign ManagerKellyanne Conway has left it open saying a meeting with mr. Trump doesnt guarantee its going to be an interview for cabinet position noting that mr. Romney is a successful businessman and former governor of massachusetts. But, still, trump choosing romney as a possible secretary of state could be seen as a sign that trump is willing to be a pragmatic president. Romney is established republican that could calm nerves on both sides of the aisle who may be afraid that trumps Foreign Policy could be a bit unhinged or regressive. But there are disagreements. Romney has said russia is our greatest geopolitical threat. And really trump has left it open saying is he willing to work with russia. For instance, to fight isis in syria alongside assad. Mr. Trump arrived here at 5 15 today. He will be here all weekend working on transition team. Governor romney has eight meetings tomorrow. Retired u. S. Marine corps general james mad disas a possible secretary of defense. As well as two possible secretary of education candidates. Michelle reid former chancellor of washington, d. C. Public schools and mega donor from michigan betsy dedevos. Both of those candidates are prochoice when it comes to schools and charter schools. So big, big weekend here. He will be working all weekend here from his golf course. Have fun in bedmister. Cool town. Amy hemmingway and susan father reachio correspondent at the washington examiner. Great to see you both. Molly i read a Huffington Post today. I didnt mean to it appeared by accident. Jeff sessions was attacked for his name because he was named after confederate figure. Do you think Jeff Sessions chose his name . There are things can you criticize of Jeff Sessions so unfair kind of selfdiscrediting. Old enough to remember it was beyond the pale to even mention Barack Obamas middle name. The idea that you would go after sessions for his name is Something Else entirely. I do want to respond to your previous guest who was talking about he didnt know what Jeff Sessions views on the klan. Were i would look to how he prosecuted the head of the klan for abducting and murdering a black teenage boy who he picked at random. He fought hard for the Death Penalty. He prosecuted several cases to desegregate alabama schools. If you are wondering about desegregation something you could look at. Elected the state attorney general in alabama where he made sure Death Penalty was carried out against that man who killed the black teenage boy. And he also, because of his actions, was able to there was able to be 7milliondollar civil settlement that ended up bankrupting the klan in alabama. If you are really wondering about his views on the klan i know him. Susan, Jeff Sessions does have some views that are not fully mainstream on trade, for example. They are out of the mainstream in washington. Thats for sure. Is he very suspicious of our trade deals. Definitely. Thats not out of the mainstream anymore. Its not. In washington it is. Why not attack him on that. Do you know what what i mean . Why not attack him for what he has said . Its true. What liberals fear most about sessions his views on immigration well known and documented. Staunch really behind the worries his political views. They cant really attack him on that. He is a member of the senate. Is going to glide to confirmation, i believe. They are looking for things and picking at things. You are hearing all these ominous rumblings he will never make it through. No, no. He only needs 51 votes. Senator Susan Collins of maine perhaps the most senate announced she is supporting him at this point. Its done. I dont see anything barring him to getting to the finish line. What is that that they really oppose about him . There is not a lot that they can really that he has done in the past two decades of the senate that you pointed out. Digging in to 30 years ago and the whole nomination process and how he lost his chance to serve on the court based on what someone accused him of saying. Racial remarks. The person who made some of those remarks was discredited with his own i, his only credibility issues. Right. That goes back 30 years ago. The whole thing so dumb. I just cant even. They are looking for lining out these three nominees is like mug shots. Look at these nominees. They are not diverse. There is no women. Well, you know, trump is picking people based on merit and loyalty and is he not going for the big diverse thing although is he looking at other diverse politics. Politics man thats for sure. Mitt romney, according to brian at bedmister showing up as a supplecant. Its a great idea they are meeting. They have a lot to gain through this meeting. Mitt romney care as lot about the country and chose that by going out hard against donald trump and willing to sort of take his lumps there to meet with him. And donald trump, you know, as a lot of people say he is a very magnanimous generous person. By having this meeting and considering him for a post. It works out well for him. Also mitt romney is very well qualified. It would calm the fears of a lot of people if he were to have a role in this administration. He would have to suck up a lot to take it finally, susan, general flynn, michael flynn, former head intel head now National Security advisor. Another person. Dont get on twitter because they are finding stories about things that happened underneath him that he had nothing to do with. And that he, you know, condemned to try to drag him down again. Its the same kind of argument that theyre looking for things that he said and done to make him look like. Is there any debate about policies or ideas or oh youre naughty. Muslims worried about. If you look at what he is saying. Talking about radical islamist fundamentalist and may be dangerous. A lot of people think that. Its not that not dangerous. Here in washington were going to say thats not dangerous. You are a bad person if you are afraid. Thanks for joining us, both of you. Now it is time for twitter storm. Tonights social media forecast shows a low pressure system brewing over kanye west. The media savvy rapper shocked concert goers on thursday with this post election revelation during a show in san jose, california. Watch this. Dii didnt vote, if i would have voted, i would have voted on trump. Well, twitter need throz say went bonkers. A man tweeted this and to be honest i wouldnt recognize either one. A man wrote g wrote. This. And celeste tweeted wrote this and thats tonights twitter storm. Well themileanhours of some socalled sanctuary cities are getting ready to defy the federal government on immigration law. Bill richardson who was a border state governor joins us next on that. Also, judging from the coverage today, you would think donald trump had just made e. D. Amin the secretary of cant blism. Some of the latest headlines there are a lot of them coming up. Them. Significant question for the perspective of the National Security. Do they know who these people are . Do they care . They do know who they ever. They are the construction workers. Theyre the fruit pickers. Theyre the restaurant workers. Theyre people that are janitors. Theyre doing essential work and a majority, according to studies, have not participated in crime. Look, were talking about 200 American Cities in 32 states. And you know, tucker, who wants to make sure this law sanctuary cities remained is Police Officers. Police officers dont want to do the work of the federal government, going and asking whose illegal or not. Governor, Police Officers dont get to make laws. They carry out the laws. Its a little weird. Law Enforcement Community. Law enforcement not lawmaking. Tucker, the Law Enforcement community has stopped efforts in the congress. Bit of an overstatement. Police chiefs serve at the pleasures
