Transcript of what happened? unfortunately i don t think you ll ever be able to, that s my whole point. the democrats on the committee had no trouble savaging me and the president in public, saying oh, stone knew about the hacking of john podesta s email, i did not. stone knew about the content of the wikileaks disclosure in october. i did not. stone colluded with somebody i did not. they say all these things in public, stone worked for the kremlin, one congresswoman said. stone has worked for russia, all these things false. they say these things in public but won t afford you the same opportunity, saying you have to testify behind closed doors and we will release the transcript. tucker: i thought the republicans were in charge of congress? you would think. the fair, american way would be allowing you to face your accuser in a public forum, to allow you to respond in the same form in which the accusations
And so on. i don t think that was his finest hour but it was absolutely clear example of his loyalty that he was not going to go against trump. looking at him thinking is this going to be a guy if it came down to onelo vote on health cae bill or something, what he go against us? i think the conclusion wasr absolutely not. judge moore on the other hand is notably independent, unpredictable, somewhat colorful character. no telling what he might do. i think that might be the calculus, it makes sense when you think about it. tucker: the phrase no telling what he might do is the last thing a sitting president wants. no telling what he might do. tucker: i might vote for a guy who ran on that. i m not as responsible as i should be. brit hume, great to see you. we will be right back. i had some severe fatigue, some funny rashes.
Form in which the accusations were made. that s why i said today president trump is absolutely right. this is a witch hunt. this is a scandal without facts or evidence. tucker: so you were in a colloquy with a congressman from california and you kind of insulted each other. he, as you say, accused of colluding with the russian government. what was that exchange like today? it was pretty intense. the most interesting thing that happened today was i made the case in my prepared statement and in the question and answer period that i do not believe there is any solid evidence that the dnc was actually hacked, never mind hacked by the russians. and the cornerstone of that is that the democratic national committee refused to let the fbi examine their servers, preferring to have a company
Appropriate thing for the president to say. they have a right. we have no legal case to condemn a person, a football player who doesn t stand. the owners may have rightsa to deal with the employees on the football field. so i think they have all the rights every american does to speak out, they ve got access to the internet. they have all kinds of ways to express their own opinions, but i think. every american, no matter what their views on the issues, should stand for america, should salute the flag. i think otherwise we don t have the kind of nation that is healthy. that we need to have to be strong and be able to have contentious debates within it. tucker: what do you think it s about? why do you think that some of the most successful people in our society would be taking a publicf stand against symbols of the country itself? first, my thought is they
Primarily upon emigrants. why is it bigoted to denounce them? i agree with you, everyone is against ms-13. in fact, from our opinion if you commit a violent crime in this country, you need to be in prison. i don t care whether or not you are a nazi threatening peaceful protesters in charlottesville. if you are a militia member threatening the villages around the country. it doesn t matter if you are in a gang or what it is, if you commit a violent crime tucker: i i agree with that. the problem with the ad is it s not about that, it s a deceptive add by a man who is so out of touch that he discounts their intelligence. it s not about ms-13, it s about appearing to show latinos with the same brushstroke as this gang. and that s a terrible thing. the footage from this ad is from a prison in el salvador. tucker: we went to el salvador and interviewed ms-13 members in prisons and there is a massive movement of gang members from that country to the united states, that s real. i gue
