disaster. it is not an overstatement and it is a generous assessment. our country has ever seen anything like joe biden has done. barely 15 months into his first term as president, joe biden has crash the stock market, provoked a food shortage, opened our borders to millions of illegal aliens, presided over historic rises in murder, inflation, and drug ods, as well as a corresponding plunge and overall life expectancy. and then because all of that wasn t punitive enough for a country as racist as ours, he dragged the united states into an entirely pointless war with a nuclear armed power on behalf of a corrupt foreign government that once bribed his drug addicted son. that s all real. joe biden did all of that. and those are just the big, easy to measure crimes he has committed. we spent virtually every night cataloguing some of the rest, shuttered schools, permanent looting, latin american levels of wealth inequality, tampons in the boys bathroom. $7 a gallon gasoline, un
tucker: good evening and welcome to tucker carlson tonight. this is a fox news alert facing almost certain defeat for his party in the midterm elections five months from now, sgrooid has become desperate. he s decided to leverage the murder of 19 children in texas last week for political advances. he just spoke at some length from the white house about the need to disarm the population this isn t about taking anyone s rights. about s about protecting children. about protecting families. it s about protecting hole communities. to go to school, to a grocery store, to a church without being shot and killed. we need to ban assault weapons and high capacity magazines. and if we can t ban assault weapons, then we should raise the age to purchase them from 18-21. strengthen background checks enact safe storage law and red flag laws, repeal the immunity that protects gun manufacturers from liability. address the mental health crisis deepening the trauma of gun violence as a c
Measures and if congress fails, i believe this time a majority of the american people won t give up either. i believe the majority of you will act. tucker: so to summarize the president s remarks tonight, your constitutional rights are not absolute but in taking them away, we re not actually taking away your rights we re protecting children to which you might ask, am i a threat to children? that question is never answered by the president. the point of this, of course, is to disarm people who did not vote for joe biden, and that is why simultaneous with this, this effort to recategorize the guns in your closet as felonies, democrats have been failing to from gun crimes in our cities where most of the crime is. and if you re at all confused about whether the effort here is selective, that this is enforcement only of certain people, you ll notice the president never mentioned the apparent federal gun felony his own son committed when he lied
. tucker: may 18th, last week, about 10:00 in the morning, a boat arrived from the shores of laguna beach california. the boat was carrying more than a dozen illegal aliens you see the pictures on your screen right now. customs and border protection told us they detained 13 illegal migrants, said they re moving to expel them under title 42 which the biden administration is fighting to end. that s the regulation that allows them to expel people on public health grounds, there is a pandemic. scott is running for congress in orange county. we got the footage you just saw from him and we re happy to have him join us tonight. scott thanks so much for coming on. thank you. tucker: so this is not something you imagine happening on the beach in laguna. is this a common thing? and what does it tell you? oh, yeah, this is, tucker, this is only one of 2,000 apprehensions done in the past year. we see these boats up and down
The welcome mat for illegal immigrants that katie and joe biden have put out there and we change the catch and release program. it s a really silly program. think about this tucker, they catch and release into the united states. they should catch and release back to mexico and that s how we re going to clean up the border and clean up this scourge. tucker: so katie porter is the one who told us to stop complaining about inflation and to shut up and have an abortion. how did someone like that who s not from the state of california who s one of the craziest people in the whole united states congress get elected in orange county california? do you have any idea? that was a tough year for republicans, 2018, she got elected and she didn t have a well-funded opponent last time and she didn t have a record the first time she ran. but this time she has a record and she has a record of things that support her ideology more than how her ideology impacts the everyday person in orange county.
