hi there, everyone. it s 4:00 in washington, d.c. with a gap between the reality of our post-january 6th politics and the republican party s alternate reality with its paranoid delusions about the deep state and the glorification of the capitol insurrection has never been wider. today s hearing on capitol hill by the so-called weaponization committee led by ohio republican jim jordan, involved, according to the republicans on that committee, fbi whistleblowers talking about supposed abuses at the bureau. that delusion was undercut by the reality before the hearing began. the washington post reported two fbi agents set to appear before a house subcommittee thursday had their security clearances revoked this morning over security concerns. that is according to a letter sent by the fbi to the house judiciary committee on wednesday and obtained by the washington post. those two witnesses are steven friend and marcus allen, and according to the new york times, quote, mr. all
january 6th, gas prices have doubled, drug o.d.es have reached their highest point ever come of the u.s. economy is careening toward the devastatind scariest and least noteworthy of all, this country has never in its history been closer to a nuclear war. if the other networks cannot be bothered to cover any of that tonight, instead they ve interrupted their regularly scheduled programming to bring you yet another extended prime time harangue from nancy pelosi and liz cheney about donald trump and qanon. the whole thing is insulting. in fact, it s deranged and we are not playing along. this is the only hour on an american news channel that will not be carrying their propaganda live. they are lying and we are not going to help them do it. what we will do instead is try to tell you the truth. we ve attempted to do that since the day this happened. we hated seeing vandalism at the u.s. capitol year and a half ago and we said so at the time, but we did not think it was an insurrec
Up and condemn threats to democracy. A very revealing split screen today, with President Biden standing up for democracy, while republicans held a Three Ring Circus of a hearing, struggling to find a rationale, any rationale, to impeach joe biden. But their own witnesses say there is no there there. I am not here today to even suggest that there was corruption, fraud, or any wrongdoing. In my opinion, more information needs to be gathered and assessed before i could make such an assessment. In fact, i do not believe the Current Evidence would support articles of impeachment. And we begin tonight with President Biden addressing the nation today, on one of the greatest threat our country faces, ahead of next years election. The threat to democracy. The blunt warning from the president could not come at a more fitting moment. As today is also the last day on the job for the man who, in 2020, stood directly between donald trump and a coup.

who have strange beliefs, conspiratorial beliefs, have questioned in many cases the fundamentals that have been established in numerous courtrooms all across america and by the january 6th commission, even now. you know, they believe it was instigated by the deep state and they blame nancy pelosi which would come as news to speaker pelosi who had her office trashed by the insurrectionist on january 6th and would have come to harm if they found her and would come to news to vice president pence, they wanted to hang him, they were calling for him and had they found him god only knows what would have happened. that s who these people are. there was news developed and new information developed by the democrats on the committee. let me show you congressman dan goldman sussing out who is supporting, and i m not going to
continue with the false narratives. this thing tonight, this tv show, fear factor that they are putting on tonight reminds me of the god that is running against rand paul and him doing tv commercial with a noose around his neck. it s just promoting fear. tucker: it s interesting you say that because bennie thompson, who is the chairman of this committee, just gave an opening statement and i want to play ua 20 base mexican clip 22nd clip. i m from a part of the country where people justify the actions of slavery, the ku klux klan, and lynching. i am reminded of that dark history as i hear voices today try and justify the actions of the insurrectionist on january 6th, 2021. tucker: why is benny thompson invoking the memory of
