Brennan no longer works for the federal government in any capacity. He holds no official post. According to two sources we spoke to exclusively today, brennan retains the most valuable asset he had in government, a topsecret Security Clearance. Brennan is an out of the closet extremist. This is not a man who should have Security Clearance. A month later, that remains true. John brennan discredited and unbalanced. Keep in mind that treason is a Death Penalty offense. Responsible people do not make that charge for political reasons. But brennan didnt hesitate. He is, i think, the most divisive president weve ever had in the oval office. He is feeding and fueling hatred and animosity and misunderstandings among americans. I use the term that this is nothing short of treasonous because its a betrayal of the nation. Giving aid and comfort to the enemy. Tucker betrayal of the nation . Would you want a person who says casually accuse people of murder without evidence to get a Security Clearance equipment obviously you wouldnt. Brennan is not different. An effort to suppress freedom of speech, but brennan is the one who believes words alone, speech, or a form of treason that should get you sent to prison. Or executed. The government is belatedly acknowledging that. Lou dobbs, what would be the reason can you think of a legitimate reason for john brennan to have to retain his Security Clearance after leaving the government for punditry . I cant imagine why that would be necessary, or why it would be frankly allowed. After his first personal again, personal. Not policy attacks, personal attacks against the president of the United States and what we now suspect is a john brennan inspired and led assault on this
United States personally permitted Security Clearances . How could that even be permitted. We deserve great credit for tha that. In terms of the spectacle of seeing the former fbi director, the former cia director, the National Director of intelligence james clapper, absolutely a assault against this president and attacking him personally almost weekly, then it became more frequent. We had never witnessed anything near that in that countrys history. Tucker im confused, though. If you ran one of these agencies and you had an institutional longterm interest in preserving the credibility of the agency, you would be very upset with people like john brennan or jim klapper, they detract from your legitimacy. They make people nervous. So why are they not telling these guys, slow it down, get
off twitter, stop being overtly political, you are doing damage to the institution from which they are. Apparently there is plenty of support within the leadership of those agencies, the holdovers, the leftovers, if you will, from the Obama Administration not to do precisely that. It is highly questionable to me why we tolerated the former Intelligence Agency heads becoming part of the mainstream political debate, if you can call their assault on the president personally part of the mainstream debate. But they were attacking him vigorously he committed, unrelentingly. It is a spectacle we have never witnessed before and i cant imagine that they will permit again. The agencies themselves have so much to answer for. If it was indeed russian meddling in the election, quote
unquote, like in the world did in our agencies, those three agencies in particular, know about it and do something about it to forestall it, to prevent it, to at least carry out retribution for that under president obama . This was under his watch not president trumps. President obama has much to answer for in leaving behind a group of Intelligence Agency directors who carried on the ideological assault publicly and without precedent in american history. Tucker so Finally Klapper and brennan are not Government Employees but employees of Television News networks. Have you applied for a top Security Secret Clearance . Should i . Personally, i think ive said this to you before. Im going to hold out for a subpoena power. Tucker [cackling]
traditional role of the press. Journalists ought to be as skeptical of the powerful. And from the agencies he once worked for. But they are not. Instead, they have become brennans faithful handmaidens, arguing he and his colleagues in the intelligence world are not bound by the same rules you and i are. The Intelligence Establishment does what it wants, they tell us. Your job is to obey. They are in job roaming charge, they spy on you without limit, you accept a life without privacy. Dont complain, insolence is disloyalty, dissent is treason. That is the message on every other channel. That is state media, the definition of it. Dan bongino is a former secret Service Agent and a new author of the book spygate. Thank you for coming on tonight. If the press has any role at all, its to make certain that people who have amassed an enormous amount of power, power to affect your life ought to be under relentless scrutiny. What they are telling us on the other channels all day long is that its somehow immoral for us to ask obvious questions. Why would john brennan have in Security Clearance as an nbc employee . Why are they tamping down any effort to ask obvious questions what our government is doing . You would think so, tucker, but we are dealing with a modern day pravda. You understand john brennan was the Puppet Master for the entire scheme to violate the Civil Liberties of donald trump and his team . John brennan was that guy. John brennan, tucker, tweeting today about his principle i thought it was a joke. I have to check for the blue check mark. This is a disgraceful human being who nearly destroyed the reputation of the intelligence community. Tucker, On August 25th and 2016, john brennan himself this is a fact, public record. Read terry read up on the hill about elements in the dossier that then made it into a letter
from harry reid to the fbi that was used as a predicate to spy on the trump team. We are supposed to trust this guy . This guy should get off twitter and hire a lawyer. Tucker i thought we were supposed to be by him. I thought the heads of our intel agencies are so visited and intelligence. Everything ive read by its been all, cliche, pompous, stupid. Doesnt seem like an impressive person. How did he run the most powerful intel agency in the world . Im not sure. When i worked in the white house, i remember crossing paths with brennan and found him to be a narcissistic fool, just like he is now. This man really is a disgrace and the stain on the United States whose legacy will only be a cautionary tale told to future cia leaders about how not to act. Tucker, keep in mind too, far back as 2015, leftwing reporters because they thought they had a Trump Cushion Conspiracy which never existed,
were reporting on brennans contacts with foreign intel about trump and his relationship with the russians that never came to fruition. Suspiciously, some of those foreign intelligence heads resigned right after the donald trump election rather abruptly. They were communicating with john brennan, by the way also is on the record saying on tv with chuck todd and others and in Media Appearances that he still has no hard evidence of collusion, yet he weaponized the government in order to attack donald trump. He needs to slither away quickl quickly. Tucker how is the next president going to deal with this . Now that the veil has been removed and we have some sense of whats going on, will any president ever trust any intel agency ever again not to undermine him . You know, tucker, im not sure about that. Thats really what upsets me. Having served under two democratic president s and a secret Service Agent im in the center like everyone else. Im not looking for a pat on on the back. I never once thought even in my own books taking a personal shot at barack obama using my experience, never, you just dont do that. When you sign up for public service, running the cia, you turn around and turn to twitter to attack the sitting president s . No, a stain on the country. We deserve better than this. Tucker i think thats right. Dan, thank you very much for that. Paul manafort has spent the last weeks in a hole in prison. What did he do . Tax evasion. The average tax of eight or a sentence in u. S. Court gets a year and three months in jail. Palm and a fort facing 305 years in jail. And yet the adult accused of running a childabuse compound in new mexico out in vail. Our politics playing a role in the application of justice . Plus andrew cuomo says america was never great, never that
impressive. Hillary clinton endorsed another attack on american symbols. Degradation continues and so does our coverage. Stay tuned.

Tucker in an order published, a new mexican judge dash at a Desert Compound in rural new mexico. Some of the defendants were training those kids to commit mass shootings. At least one child appears to have died at the compound. But now, remarkably, all five adults are free to go on a 20,000 bond. The perspective, that is low. Paul manafort by contrast is on trial for tax evasion, thats a crime that is a crime. As we notice in the last segmen segment, the average sentence is a year and three months. Paul manafort is facing over 300 years in prison for that and a federal judge placed in Solitary Confinement for several weeks. The difference is probably political. Manafort is being punished in part of helping to elect
donald trump. That means to be a more profound crime than starving children or training them to be terrorists. Judge, last thing you want to think his justice is an equally applied. But you see things like this happen and its hard to reach any other conclusion. I dont think theres any doubt about that, tucker. We are in a strange time in our history. We have the unfortunate Hillary Clinton investigation where she got a pass by the fbi because she was a democrat and he wanted her to be president but we have the unfortunate situation where they then decide they were going to frame donald trump. If they went about it. If hillary had been elected, we wouldve never known about this scheme to unconstitutionally subvert in the election. And then you have this goofy judge in new mexico who decides that five of the defendants in this case who clearly were grooming Young Terrorists and ruining their lives should be out on bond. This woman moved from San Francisco to new mexico and when she did that, she took some
of the crazy turf from San Francisco and moved it to love new mexico and look what we got. Tucker its dispiriting for the rest of us, but it makes you wonder are you a fool for obeying the law . They reduce the sentences of drug traffickers, the story going to break tomorrow. For the past year, youve seen people argue in public is breaking Immigration Law is not a crime and are a criminal if you think they are breaking the law. Why are the rest of us so this is usually following the letter of the law . Are we fools for doing that . We believe in the constitution, the history of this country. We believe in one system of justice, we believe everybody should be held accountable in the matter how high, how low they are stationed in life. No, actually, tucker, we are the good guys. Im happy to associate myself with the good guys. I love the good fbi agent who enforce the law equally and i dont like people like james comey and sally yates who
dont. We just have to keep fighting. This is a long, tough slog which has resulted from 50 years of liberal education at grade schools, high schools, college, the academy in the hands of the leftists, and graduating idiots into our society. Civics isnt taught anymore and this is where we end up. Tucker you are exactly right, i was getting cynical for a moment. Inspiring them actually. I mean it. You are welcome. Tucker donald trump said he would make America Great again, Top Democrats saying this country was never great and the crowd cheers. A Winning Campaign message. We will go over it next.

Tucker Donald Trumps first president ial campaign vowed to make America Great again, of course. His second vows to keep America Great again. The governor of new york andrew cuomo offered a statement. Actually, america is not impressive at all. Cuomos office said that the governor does think america is great, but that its a sham. The left bashing americas entire history is winning political rhetoric. They believe the wrong kind of people live here and they are not shy about saying so. Lawrence jones is a radio host and hes joining us tonight. Do you think this is a political matter, leaving aside the objective questions of how Great America was or is now . Do you think thats a winner to get out there and say, you know what . Kind of a crappy country . It depends on who you are trying to get people to the polls, if you are trying to get average americans in the beliefs of american ideas, maybe its not the best strategy. But if you are going to a fullblown socialist agenda where you want to finally change america as it is. If im quite honest, tucker, thats what its all about. They dont like america because they dont like the ideas of america. They want us to become a socialist country which is really antiamerican. There is nothing far further to the left and far away from america than a socialist agenda. Tucker isnt that the opposite of the person you want leading you . If the coach of your team thought the team was terrible, had contempt for the players, if the officer in charge of a platoon thought his men were unimpressive and your lives were worthless, those are bad leaders you dont want someone running
your country with a contempt for the country, do you . We dont, but this is a new age but we are talking about reasonable people. These are people who believe the constitution needs to be ripped up. They believe i. C. E. Needs to be dismantled. They hate law enforcement. They hate the freedom of speech. These people dont believe in the ideal of america, if you see where im getting at. Tucker and i do. If they can get to some type of third world country, some socialist venezuela, because thats essentially whats going to happen. You are going to destroy the country with this agenda. They would be totally fine. Because in their eyes, the theory works. Tucker i have to say, focused on cuomo because hes obviously so unimpressive. By the way, his father, mario cuomo, his famous 1984 address to the Democratic Convention said the absolute opposite. But hes not alone. Today, Hillary Clinton tweeted in support of a girl who kneeled during her schools pledge of allegiance. Keep up the good work, mariana. When you kneel for the project, pledge of allegiance, what are you protesting . What injustice are you getting into . I dont get into kids into the political talking about the political issue, or was she, declaring the war on drugs which dismantled many communities . Where was she when she supported liberal mayors like in baltimore where there is corruption not just in the local government but the local businesses where the rich, powerful, and wellconnected play by different rules . Why black kids and black families and their families are
dismantled while people that look like them say, hey, im for you guys. But they vote differently, they are partnering with the lobbyists of the special interest groups, really not helping the community. Hillary clinton, instead of you taking a knee and getting behind 11yearolds, why dont you tell us about your policies that your husband supported so much . Tucker if your idea this is a sincere question, but if you are 70 years old and looking back in your life and realized, hey, my ideas produced baltimore. How would you feel about yourself . Would you feel contrite . Well, you should feel real horrible. Basically, in the eyes of them, this is the republicans fault, even though they have control, like baltimore, chicago and i would admit, the citys stock that they are in, they are bad shape. Tucker they do. They wont get away from that
agenda, they allow people that look like me to say that they are for the community but they really are not. I would say the right should be cautious of the same thing. We have people that act like they are for the conservative movement. They look like me, they say they are black conservatives. But when you look at their profile, they are trying to take away liberties as well. Its not a party thing. Its about american thing. If we are going to believe in the values that were founded in this country now liberals will tell me, lawrence, it was unfounded for you the Second Amendment is not for you guess what, the Second Amendment is mine now and i will give it back to you guys tucker the great lawrence jones, as ladies end. Thanks, Tucker Tucker vermont might have the first transgender governor. But its the candidates opinions that are interesting, specifically christianity. Well tell you about that next.

Last week, cpl was in iowa letting him work for a president ial run last cycle. He will be doing the same thing in the Granite State speaking at a Democratic Party of New Hampshire critic theyll make them a picnic. He calls himself an entrepreneu entrepreneur [cackling] pretty funny. But brace yourself, now, the Creepy Porn Lawyer says children under 12 will be admitted for free. Now we are not lawyers here, so we cannot comment whether thats legal or not, but it certainly is creepy. In vermonts democratic primary,
voters nominated Christine Hultquist to be the first transgender governor, but the real story is that hultquist has tweeted nasty, nasty things about this countrys most embattled faith, christianity. Voting that is, worry about charlie a {sharia law suggesting we shouldnt tolerate it it, in a response to a story about a Mother Stabbing her son, i bet she called herself a christian. Other tweets for christian hypocrites calling evangelist crazy. Chad mcmoore is a concern of a journalist from New York City and they both join us tonight. Thank you for coming on. First to you, clearly there are christians who are not worth defending, that is for certain. The Westboro Baptist freaks or whatever. But what im so struck by is
well, there is no defending tha that. Of course. Tucker in the speech code that all of us live under, the only religion you can attack is christianity. If she stopped In Another World great religion, other abraham make the fates, she would be out of the race tomorrow. Why is that . Thats tricky. I look at all the text that reference christianity that she had sent out and she did, you are correct, to lead up to the story that shed tweeted about a mother who killed her son because he was gay, that certainly is radical and wrong, reprehensible. Absolutely correct to call out westborough, who pickets funerals of fallen soldiers. But these are fringe elements. These are the most fringe
elements, calling them out. I do not want to control her right to speech as a transgender woman, tucker i think she is celebrating it. Lets not pretend. I am not attacking this person, im just saying if youre upset about people killing others for being gay, its awful, is christianity the primary offender there . No, its not close at all. No, no, no. It is i think im not allowed to say the name of it without being harassed by the splc and who else, you are her transgender privilege. I mean, who knows if that is how she wanted this primary. The entire country is fixated on the fact that shes transgender, nobody knows about her policies. All we can think about, all we know she is more medicaid for all, she is a climate alarmist, she believes in a 15 minimum wage. Thats kind of it. She was on scene and this morning looking half dead, very low energy, she was on cnn this morning and couldnt answer the question about what socialism i is. I dont know what socialism is, im not qualified. She was asked about capitalism and isnt even who is this person . All we know is shes transgender and thats all about that . Can she lead the entire state of vermont . Tucker what if she said there is a great world religion which has a long and recent track record of murdering gay a people what would her are you talking about the muslim faith . Tucker im talking about the one Abraham Abrhamic faith . What she should be held about that . Yes, its a problem. She wouldve been correct to assert that just as she is correct to call out people like Westborough Church and some of the radical extremists, there are radical extremists in all religions. When you become radicalized regardless of your faith, thats your problem. Just like westborough westboro. Tucker thats not actually true. In western europe, in the last 20 years, anyway, there hasnt been a lot of christian terrorism, actually. There is been a lot of i like a lot of muslims. But lets be real. There is a penalty stating the obvious. And the factually true. I do not understand this lgbt
obsession with christians. A lot of it comes, hultquist talks about will growing up in a Catholic School and because he was growing up in as a in hr words, is that we can actually grow up and get over it and move on to it we dont all of our problems on things that happened with childrens. Obviously christianity has moved Leaps And Bounds, American Society has moved Leaps And Bounds from when hultquist was a child. Why are you blaming an entire religion for all of your problems . These radicalized christians, there is, like, ten of them in the country. Who cares . Tucker gentle men, we are out of time. Thank you so much, tucker. Tucker Plastic Straws have been banished from public life with shocking speed. There is a new target. Balloons. Almost as dangerous as straws. Our little sherpa joins us next to explain why balloons are terrifying. Animals. A town in rhode island which has solved all of its other problems has already banned band balloon sales. Kathy really is not confused by this. The Founding Publisher of catalina magazine, she is our liberal sherpa, and guiding us through the himalayas of liberal throughout. Kathy, good to see you. Good to see you. Tucker most of us when we think balloons do not think environmental disaster. We think 8yearold birthday party. Seabirds and turtles should fear them because they die when they choke on these balloons when they come back to the ground and their attacks are bright colored. They should be feared, they should fear these balloons. We should not care of them. They serve no purpose. They are not biodegradable. It takes about 1020 years for them to degrade. So they actually are just another form of letter, just like Plastic Straws. Balloons are litter. Tucker i think im sensing a theme here. The things the left wants to ban are also maybe coincidentally the things that bring ordinary people joy. [laughs] tucker tobacco, drinking straws, balloons. I wonder if may be Banding Humor or Human Happiness might be a shortcut to get to the goal of the left is looking for, do you think . A Sustainable Future relies on happiness and humor. But not balloons. Tucker [cackling] its illegal in many places. Rice at weddings, we throw him exceeds because we dont want the birds to choke and rice has been around for roman times for weddings. Tucker i didnt know that. Its illegal to throw rice at weddings . In some towns. No, in some places in texas, yeah. Rice at weddings is illegal. Thats been around since roman times. Balloons have been around only since the 1800s, so we can get rid of balloons. No one is going to miss them. Tucker Have Progressive Scientist studied the Carbon Emissions by human laughter. I wonder if we discover that laughing was warming the earth, would we ban it . I dont think there is a study on that, but there have been studies on the Life Span Of Litter and thats why we are banning straws and balloons and probably diapers are going to be released with cloth diapers. Bottles, Glass Bottles actually take a million years to degrade. To biodegrade. Glass bottles might be on their way out. Tucker let me ask you real quick . I totally get that and i actually hate litter which is the reason why im so against illegal immigration i mean that with all sincerity. Why is nobody trying to ban
iphones or lululemon yoga pants or Running Shoes or any of the accessories the idle rich in our country. But its Kids Balloons . I dont think 10,000 loom on pans are being flown into the air and killing the wildlife and hurting our future. I do not think they are hurting tomorrow. Not yet. Tucker they wind up in feels ultimately when they come out with a new lululemon stretch pants and youve got to buy make new ones and you throw make the old ones away. They wind up in the landfill. Thats a environment of disaste disaster. Another disaster why do we allow why do we allow this thing right here . Right tucker do you know what a pelican can do on that . Pelicans choke on these by the thousands. Why is there no movement to ban them . I do not think thats exactly true, but i think tucker [cackling]
vintage shops where they recycle their clothes. Balloons, though, completely useless. We did not need those. We need our phones. We need to get dressed. Tucker okay. Not as useless as the iphone, i would argue, but im not the liberal sherpa here. Thank you very much. Good to see you. Tucker well, at least in washington on both sides left and right are really threatened by the rise of populism, a think tank on the right, think tank on the left to fight the popular will. Well speak to one representative of that movement next. Youre headed down the highway
when the guy in front slams on his brakes out of nowhere. You do, too, but not in time. Hey, no big deal.

Ends wednesday. With advil liquigels, what bad shoulder . What headache . Advil is relief thats fast strength that lasts youll ask. What pain . With advil liquigels tucker the real divide in washington isnt between conservatives or liberals. Its between conservatives and liberals and populists. People who oppose the status quo. Almost everyone in washington support that status quo. Why wouldnt they . Its given them status and made them rich and nothing to gain from populism which is why they hate it. Washington, d. C. , voted for Hillary Clinton in numbers that resemble a common a sham election. Literally 96 . A ultimate display of the way things are in d. C. , two rival think tanks, the center for American Progress on the left and the American Enterprise enters institute on the right have joined to write a paper criticizing populism. Game on to come tonight, thank you for joining us. Delighted to join you for this display. Tucker i love your type. This is described as an effort to support democracy. And democratic values. Thats one of the reasons why you oppose populist movements like brexit. Brexit, by definition, an
expression of popular vote. We are not arguing the republic that populism is always inherently bad. Nobody is blaming donald trump in crafting a message in a way that resonates his base in the party, but we are concerned, and this report does two things. First of all, countries that have been governed by popular governments, whether far left or right wing governments like hungary which have been done may become increasingly authoritarian over time. Secondly, voices on the far left and the far right have displayed in the increasing degree this day and the importance of america, and there is an important case to be made for an argument, americans would like to see tucker i think thats important. Populist movements in general
have a terrible track record. Hungary is not an authoritarian country, thats a false statement you have made. But let me ask you about this. Has anyone indeed paused for 15 minutes to ask why donald trump got elected may be because they failed. They did a terrible job as stewards of the economy and reform policy. Why not focus on how to make our elites better, less stupid, less selfinvolved, less greedy, less shortsighted . There is no single printed daily newspaper in hungary critical of the government right now because all of them were bought up by the conservative government. I think there is a point. I think there is a lot of soulsearching going on. Pretending like the war never happened like the financial crisis never happened. This report acknowledges all of these problems and i think there needs to be an intelligent discussion of the way forward. I dont see populist movements
whether in the United States or in europe addressing those issues in a compelling way. Tucker but then why dont think tanks why dont we go back, the architects of the iraq war, the bailout, where did they go . Did they go to prison . They didnt. Some should have, but none of them did, instead they went on to get richer and more prominent. Then anyone distant, consider why that would happen . Tucker why is there no focus on them, the villains . Im happy to talk about that, but by and large, the 1945 global order has been good for humankind. We are living through the most peaceful, most prosperous period of human history. I think there is a lot that deserves to be defended and protected. Tucker i think thats a reasonable no, im out of time but i want to say thats a fair point you have made at the end. I appreciate you coming on
