maxine waters is counterproductive for the overall democratic message which is not a key democratic leader. in fact, the republican leaders, mcconnell and ryan, ryan has quit but he didn t leave. mcconnell is intensely disliked. if you look at schumer and pelosi, within the party, they have the support of democrats in terms of what they want to do. republicans right now haveel and o leader outside of president trump. tucker: that is absolutely true. republicans do not like i paul ryan by and large. who will be the speaker of democrats win? l i think pelosi probably wil win in the first instance but don t think she ll continue to serve. i think there ll be a struggle behind the scenes. i think there is a problem solvers group that is looking to have some influence if it s close, in terms of changing the rules and naming the speaker. because remember, the speaker technically has to be elected by a majority vote of the house, not the majority vote of a caucus.er tucker: so you th
it was widely debunked thanks in part to the fact that this is also an okay sign but also because it turns out that basch is actually half mexican and half jewish and theat granddaughter, yes, of holocaust survivors. in the senate meanwhile, democrats are cheered by the fact that they have some surprisingly close like texas. so much so, and republicans believe that they have big pickup opportunities in places like florida, and west virginia, states the president carried big in 2016. tucker? tucker: ed henry. thanks, ed. congressman maxine waters is leading the democratic charge this fall and her weapon of choice is rage. in a speech last weekend she vowed that democrats would impeach not simply president trump, but once they finish doing that, vice president mike pence as well. this deplorable, despicable human being that occupies the white house should not be there. they say, maxine, please don t
is that what you are seeing? i m saying that any fair inference, they are talking about the doj changing their media policy, and they are talking about the media reg policy, and the one that mark meadows references in his letter to rosenstein, that comes after that. that would seemingly by all accounts happened. tucker: but hold on, i m not here to defend any member of congress or any politician.ng i m dissecting you a very simple question, what you are dodging, which would suggest you were the one spinning, not me. and the question is simple. are you saying that on the basis of the evidence received today that they were privy to leaking? i don t think you can say that. you can t say that. they were and it s obvious from these texts. there is ear about these texts that indicate whether they were leaking or not. incidentally, strzok had a ten hour hearing at a could have asked him at the direct question then nailed him for perjury. tucker: that s their problem. i m not here to d
like breathing to them. i don t even think they would stop to think this is inappropriate. the bigger point, the underlying point, is the dominance that google has come with a way that they dominate so much, as you have been describing for a long time now. so much of a conversation. there are two steps that we need to take. first of all, we need to actually require google to reverse the power grab it s already been made. it s built itself up by acquisition. it needs to sell youtube, sell android, these little bits of its empire it s acquired. we need to go a lot further. it s one of the things that i talk about in my book. a really radical antitrust agenda that president trump can take forward. incorporated about it, like teddy roosevelt. break up these big companies. we wouldn t mind so much about these accusations of bias and so on if there were 100 search t engines that people could choose between. but it s not like that. tucker: so that s the crux of it right there. you are heari
products and telling them and prioritizing that on its own website. all these ways in which of these companies are getting more and more documents. we got to stop it and that s a conservative argument, a pro-market argument. tucker: of course. this is not the capitalism i signed up for. this is not capitalism. this is the chinese model m transplanted to the united states. so quickly, we need to trust the algorithm. we need to trust that google search results are not being designed to favor one candidate or party over another. we have to because they control all human information. how do we trust them? one thing that i think would be very helpful would be to have transparency. some people have called for algorithms that are used by these companies and others that we haven t discussed to be made public. not all the details, there are commercial secrets in there, but to bee supervised. to have a board of independent algorithms and scrutineers, if you like.
