FOXNEWSW Tucker Carlson Tonight September 21, 2018

The claim against Brett Kavanaugh that he committed some kind of Sexual Assault in high school, has set aside into something different, something ugly, something threatening to all of us. Weve learned remarkably little from Brett Kavanaugh from Christian Ford in the past week, despite lots of words on their behalf. The facts of the case are still sparse and murky. But weve learned a disturbing amount of the left and what its willing to do in order to maintain control of this country. Eaea watch a clip from today in which new york senator Kristen Gillibrand explained why shetc knows Brett Kavanaugh is guilty. Watch. I believe her because shes telling the truth. H. She is asking the fbi to investigate her claims. She is asking for that kind of review, that investigative work, that accountability, because shes telling the truth. Somebody lying does not ask the fbi to investigate their claims. Who is not asking the fbi to investigate these claims . The white house. Dr. Kavanaugh excuse me, judge kavanaugh has not asked to have the fbi review these claimsev. Is that the reaction of an innocent person . It is not. Ai tucker try to ignore the yelling and the theatrics and the pure demagoguery for a moment andll focus on Kirsten Gillibrands reasoning, to the extent there is any. I believe her because shes telling the truth. Put another way, its true because it is. In logic class, the collet t rcular reasoning, which is not reasoning at all. It simply demanding you believe something because someone else is asserting it. Children talk this way. You think a u. S. Senator would be embarrassed to. Its the second part of her statement you should Pay Attention to because its scary. Kavanaugh hasnt called yet for another fbi investigation to himself, therefore senator gillibrand says he did it. Is that the reaction of a innocent person, she thunders . Its not. Not since the mccarthy era almost 70 years ago have lawmakers talked like this in this country, unless you call an fbi investigation of yourself you are guilty of a crime. Joe mccarthy himself never said anything like that too reckless for him. A leading candidate for president ial nomination drops this and the media hardly notice. There is a new standard in washington. Kristen gillibrand is a friend tof Harvey Weinstein. Here is a picture of two of them together. Weinstein has been accused of rape. Did she know about his assaults . Was she in an accessory to them . We asked these questions before on the show, but we never got an answer. Why has the fbi not demand an fbi investigation to herself. Isis that the reaction of a innocent question . By her standards, it is not. Look at the fbi, interview her under oath, surprise her at her home at dawn with a search warrant. T while they are at it, they should take a close look at hera relation ship with bill clinton another accused rapists. If she hesitates . Press charges. This is lunatic. Sober liberals understand that it is. Democrats dont want Brett Kavanaugh in court because they disagree with him and thats understandable, by the way. They are angry that the Republican Senate refused to vote on garland, thats understandable too. Whats now is dangeroused in a y that has nothing to do with politics, and the matter who you voted for in 2016. Extremism has exploded on the left and nobody is trying to contain it. Ry here is one particularly jarring example of that. This is congressman John Garamendi of california. We know him well. He is one of the few House Democrats willing to come on the show. I dont agree with garamendi but i find him a decent person always. Heres what he said about the kavanaugh accusations. Women should be outraged what these white men senators are doing to this woman. The senators, the male senators, who control that committee, are playing the games as old as an assault, and that is women are accused, women are at fault. Tucker wait a second. What does the race of specific senators have to do with any of this . Should we be angry at them because of their skin color . Should wehe distrust them more . Are they inherently less fair or less decent because of the way they look . Garamendi is implying exactly that. How is that different or better than anything George Wallace has said . Its not, except this filth is everywhere so you hardly notice it. The last thing this country needs right now is a racial division. Democrats are pushing it anyway. They are pushing allegations that have literally nothing to do with race. Splitting the country into tiny warring groups is useful for them. It helps them contain their power, so they are happy to do it. Men against women, black against white, divide and conquer. Whatever it takes. In the end, its unlikely that well ever know conclusively what happened between Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Ford 36 years ago, if anything at all. But its Crystal Clear whats happening right now its a power grab. Its hurting the country, destroying our centuriesold traditions of justice and empowering morons and demagogues. We ought to shut it down right now. And yet, this is late breaking news, before air breaking time, this may go on and on. Republicans on the hill and they are considering delaying the hearing scheduled for monday at this point. Brett kavanaugh will be testifying by himself. To some future date. Because of the rules ofbe the senate, that will push back the vote on kavanaugh by at least a week, if not more. Which is, of course, the whole point. To drag the country through this pointless charade, this circus which divides us and hurts us and degrades are standard for justice simply for political ends. Thats where we are. Professor, im glad youre here. As a law professor, i want to ask you about what senator gillibrand said today. Shes a lawyer as well, i believe. R she said the new standard is unless you call for an fbi investigation into yourself, you are by definition guilty. Is that a Legal Standard that you recognize . What i like to think about is if i were, as Brett Kavanaugh says, an innocent man, and i were falsely accused of something this serious, whatys would i want . And i teach civil procedure and i think about criminal procedure. I think through that question. What i want is aha process thats regarded as so fair, even by my ideological adversaries, that i would be able to the rest ofe my life be able to point to the process say we have this out and everyone can agree the way we did it was fair and i was cleared. Thats what i would want. I think i would both agree that the first thing you would want thin that tucker he hasnt received that, none of us have. Barring that, and im not attacking her, but i think it should be distressed that she shes not explaining herta self, but thats not what gillibrand said. F she said if you do not ask for an investigation in yourself, thats an indication youre guilty. Th let me suggest the obvious which is that is insane, that is a third world standard, and not an american standard. And its hard to believe in elected senator would say that. You arent surprised about that . Two things. Number one, if i were an innocent man, i would actually welcome the fbi investigating. I might not call for it but i would say, sure, investigate. You would see that im an innocent man, but the second thing, im listening to you talk to this. You said, and you pointed out quite correctly, many of the senior members of the Democratic Party are incredibly associated with important predators like Harvey Weinstein and to your point i would say its a good idea to investigate that. Ha which i do agree with. Tucker no it looks like youre going in the opposite direction. Tucker the point i am making is that guilt by association is a low and immoral tactic. Its commonplace so we dont notice it. Mc if you have dinner with somebody who has unsavory views or unpopular views, you could be fired. Weve seen people fired for that very thing. Guilt by association is not the same as guilt. So to say that because Kirsten Gillibrand was friends with Harvey Weinstein that she is somehow accessory to his predation is totally wrong. I would never make that claim. I was merely saying er thats not what youre suggesting. Tucker what im suggesting is that innocent people have a moral obligation to call it upon themselves with an fbi investigation. Ig thats insane i agree with that. But if i were an innocent man, i wouldnt think of it as my obligation but rather my privilege. If i were Brett Kavanaugh, and im an innocent man, i would insist on pointing every camera at my face and denying these allegations. I want everyone to see it. Wouldnt you . Tucker i believe he has already done that. I think hes been the subject of six fbi investigations into his background checks by federal agents and i believe hes testifying monday, and hell sae i dont know what shes talking about. I didnt do this. She, by contrast, the reason we are having this conversation, leveled the charge of felonious behavior against a public official and has refused to explain herself. Where is the onus on her . Shes dragged the whole country and a shortcircuited process and not bothered to expanders on . I know you arent supposed to blame the victim, but shes not in charge of the whole country. Why isnt she being asked of the story . As we say often in the law, the government is entitled to every persons evidence. It would be useful if she testified. Again, keep with the frame a little bit. If i were Brett Kavanaugh and i were an innocent man i would say, look, you dont want to testify on monday, take a week, take a month. When this is done, and im confirmed, i will not live myself under a cloud where people can say, the reason we got through is because we rushed it. Tucker i understand. But if you face opponents that you publicly were declared you were guilty on the basis of evidence, the fact you didnt request an fbi investigation into yourself, you would acknowledge you are dealing with unreasonable people who are dealing with just if you are merely trying to destroy your life for political ends. Or am i being crazy here . I dont know about that. If i were facing unreasonable e people, i would say, look into it. I am an innocent man. Tucker i would be happy to participate in such a system. But when you have people saying what Kristen Gillibrand said today, you are dealing with unreasonable people who dont care about justice. And its scary. Prosecutors often dont. Tucker i agree. Position yourself as these people arent reasonable. The way i will prove it to you is i will give them everything they want. Tucker hes doing that monday if i were an innocent man.

New emails, obtained by the show, google is the most powerful company in the history of the world. Virtually all human information flows through its software. For that reason, google shapes how the world understands reality. At the heart of googles business is its Search Engine which is a virtual monopoly on search in this country and others. Y. Google search succeeds because its blindingly efficient but also because its perceived as honest. Ot we search a term on google, thet most popular results come to the top. The process is straightforward and democratic. S thats what most people think, that is how it is perceived. Thats why the world trust google. But what if google is lying to you . What if the results you got were secretly weighted to get you too vote a certain way, to believe a certain thing . That would affect a lot of people and a lot of votes. W it would be impossible to have a real democracy under circumstances like that. A small number of incredibly rich people would be in charge of everything, including your perceptions. That is a major concern for all of us because google is a very Political Company who recentlyed showed you email evidence of a google effort to collude with a leftwing group in support of Hillary Clintons president ial campaign. We have internal documents that google employees are corrupting the Search Engine to push propaganda on hundreds of millions of unsuspecting users. Ns here is what happened. Shortly after taking office, President Trump issued his now famous travel ban. Immediately after that, google employees began plotting ways to under manning the president executive order. Lo on january 29th, a google Product Marketing manager named Mckenzie Thomas send an email to a group of fellow employees. There is a large brainstorm going through the marketing orb, writing about how to respond to trumps order. Among thomas ideas is to counter algorithmic results as iran, latino, and so forth, google wanted to make them more positive for political reasons. Thomas promote the links for making donations to organizations fighting the travel ban. This, of course, would be completely dishonest and unethical behavior. L but thomas colleagues at google seemed to approve it strongly. Rami bana responded, absolutely in, mckenzie. Well put you a list of orbis with merrill and hl team. Stacie chan added groups she had thought they should promote including the aclu, the immigrants defense project, the National Immigration law center. All of those groups at the time were agitating against the president S Immigration ban. Even at least one person on the team seem to realize how. Dangerous and out of the ordinary this conversation was. A google employee called clement wolf commented that he was very much in favor of google stepping up, but was wondering how partisan we want to be on this. To the extent of my knowledge, wed be breaching president if we only give highlights access to organizations who support a certain view. We contacted google about these remarkable emails and reply to us is here in full. An these emails were just a brainstorm of ideas, and none ever implemented. Google has never modified search results to promote a political ideology, not in the Current Campaign season, not during the 2016 election, not in the aftermath of President Trumps m order on immigration. Our processes and policies would not have allowed us to nor did google say anything about these employees on this email chain. Presumably, they still work at google, which is remarkable. If you ran a bank and you caught your tellers brainstorming howw to rob the vault, would they still work for you . Google fired a engineer named james damar, flew back to fire him, wipe like that because he was caught making conservative ideas in a private memo. Here, google employees are plottingin to subvert our entire public conversation secretly, but that is fine with google. It shouldnt be fine with the u. S. Congress who is scheduled to testify on capitol hill next week. The topic is privacy. It would be nice if one e
