Thanks so much sure Victor Davis Hanson is the man we speak to in moments like this. Is he a senior fellow at the Hoover institution? Thank you very much for coming on one of the habits, media and democratic party aftermath of virtually every tragedy. You see them, go on television or stand in the well of the Senate and make broad generalizations attacking this or that group, racial group or political group. You are not seeing that today. For obvious reasons: Iwhat doesthis tell you about th corruption of the people who are supposed to be making sense of the moment for us yeah. I think the left in general in the Democratic Party in particular, they dont have a concept of the news. They are just opportunities to advance agendas and right now that agenda seems to be racialism and socialism. So when they look at sometimes they have to inflate the story. Jussie Smollett Covington kid Duke Lacrosse. They create it out of whole cloth.
Sometimes they have to change the language Tucker, so George Zimmerman, half per reefian becomes a white hispanic and his face is photo shopped to hide the injury right now. They seem to be fixated on January, 6th January sixth, of the emblem of white insurrection and anti asian hate crime. Even though there is no data about anti asian hate Crime- and we know about it mostly inordinately committed by African Americans, they take a sexual deviant who shot eight people, 60s of whom were massage parler workers who were asian, two were white and he becomes the new White Boogie man that proves that white, hates Asians. And then we carry that story of the white terrorists into Colorado. So when Mr Ahmad Alissa shoots ten, the story is not even we dont even know anything, but its white terrorism did this. Now we are on to this incident today and just as kind of a thought experiment. When I heard this
story, I said to myself: if I dont hear, am I going to hear about the description of the shooter if he is not white, and am I going to hear January Sixth, and so the first six stories I looked at? There was no description of the shooter at all or the suspect, but January sixth, saturated all the stories as if this was some trump supporter who was still wandering around Washington and broke through these fence and necessary barbed wire and shot the capitol and then only later did I see that he was an unhinged, probably racialist, supporter of Louis Farrakhan, and you know this is their own words: Jim Christian Amanpour, Jorge Ramos Lester Holt. They have all said to us that they are not empirical deductive. The news cannot be reported as it used to be to finish Tucker. They believe that, because the hard left and the racially obsessed to hijacked their own party means that they can also hijack America and thats what the sixty four thousand dollars
question is. Are they right or not? I dont think they are, but they think because they did this to the Democratic Party. They are going to do this to the entire country and they want to be on the winning side. Cant, let them they are destroyers. I sometimes right down when you speak. I write down because I want to remember it. I love your line. They are not interested in the news. They see only opportunities, I think, thats exactly right. They are thinking in a very different way than the rest of us, Victor Davis, Hanson. I appreciate your come on tonight. Thank you. Thank you. Well, the latest episode of Tucker Carlson today is out. You can find it at Fox nation dot com pretty easy to find up. We spoke to an immunologist about the vaccine. It was the most interesting conversations in a long time. If you listen to the whole thing, you will come out reassured about the vaccine. The science behind it seems really solid. You will be very concerned about the people administering the vaccine and the way they are.
