Good evening and welcome to Tucker Carlson tonight, the United States remains the most powerful country in the world pair thats. The good news whats interesting is this country has occupied that position for so long that relatively few Americans have considered what would happen if we slip from that perch it wouldnt matter. If America became subordinate to other nations, theres a debate about that at work. Does it matter to you who the bosses? It probably does matter, thus the person who can fire you and it isnt so different from that the rest of the planet takes the orders, whether they like it or not. Weve lost sight of that, because, for more than a century, America effectively has been in charge of much of the world and thats exactly what we have stayed rich and free for that time, most Americans on some level understand this. Is an arrangement worth preserving
their so much worse, not so much. How would you feel about surrendering the? U dot S dollar as the worlds reserve, currency and immediately going bankrupt? No thanks. Most of us would like to avoid outcomes like that and whats. Why we spend more than any country in the world on the military theres. A reason is the largest government agency, not just because defense contractors are powerful in exchange for all of that money and all that power and all the oversight we give it thinking of ways to keep America strong. The question is: how have they been doing that? How do you judge for yourself? Most of the generals see quoted in the press, meets an counterproductive diversity, role, role assembling the worlds first transgender seal team by not defending the United States. The conflicts that Hannah gone says is preparing forcing comically, small and outdated,
whether its wrangling with illiterate tribesmen in Afghanistan, for ramping up for some new war against a remote group of buildings in Syria. Can port a relevant country really be our gravest enemies. We act like it. Thats been confirmed tonight, the weather itself going forward the? U dot S military has still declared a hot ward on global warming. Without addressing the climate crisis, we face all kinds of threats in our line of work, but few of them truly deserve to be called existential. A climate crisis does deserve to be called existential, existential youve got a cliche. He will read it on television,
Floyd Austin. Of course, a full time ideologue as well having Lloyd Austin at the Pentagon is like handing control of the entire. U dot S military to the editorial page of the New York Times the single scariest risk. Our soldiers faces the possibility they may have to serve alongside Americans, who didnt vote for Joe Biden. If confirmed, I will fight hard to stamp out sexual assault and to read our ranks of racists and extremists. Did the job of the Department of Defense is to keep America safe from our enemies, but we cant do that. If some of those enemies lie within our own ranks, he is a joke and a mediocrity and of course he was confirmed by the Senate as if he was impressive, but hes not and the results are entirely predictable, puts a finer point on what exactly is happening at the Pentagon. Under Lloyd, Austin Austin has hired an activist called Bishop Garrison is the head of the militarys vast diversity and inclusion apparatus.
A group of offices that has nothing to do with fighting wars just spend five minutes. Googling Bishop garrison, he announced anyone who supports Donald Trump, tens of millions of american citizens, many of whom who have served in the military as a white supremacist, and he said there is no room for nuance on that question. Garrison wrote a lot of things like that. You can google it again you should now. He is one of the most powerful officials in the U dot S. Military Democrats in Congress are thrilled to watch this. Their party now has all the tanks and drones with strangers. Republicans dont seem to have noticed. It happened still getting the same, vacuous speeches about the troops and then signing off on ever expanding defense with no oversight. The effect the same fighting force that for generations we have been so proud of, have been captured without a shot by people who seem like rejects
from the Google HR department and its defenders. The defenders of the troops cant be bothered to say a word about it. Do they have television? Have they seen the Armys latest recruiting act? This is the story of a soldier who operates the patients missile defense systems. It begins in California, with a little girl raised by two moms. Although I had a fairly typical childhood took ballet played violin, I also marched for equality. I like to think ive been defending freedom from an early age, improve my inner strength and the chatters stereotypes along the way. I also marched for equality oh shut up. Who cares? Please stop talking about yourself for once, it is boring and irrelevant and insulting. This is not just your country, it belongs to all of us. Your
job is to defend it. Please do so its becoming clear. They have no interest in defending it and Heres the latest evidence of that it comes from CBS last night. This is a clip from a sixty minutes report on all things ufos in the: U Dot S military watch, this a Navy aircrew struggles to lock onto a fast moving object off the: U Dot S Atlantic coast in two thousand and fifteen recently released images may not convince you with UFO Skeptics B Pentagon admits they dont know what in the world this is or this or this ufos they are spooky and kind of funny crazy people believe in them up until you get to the line the Pentagon admits it doesnt know what in the world this is and thats where you pause, because from a national security perspective, that is a very big problem.
How big problem? Is it one Navy, pilots of the? U dot S military has observed, unidentified flying objects, maneuvering in restricted airspace off the coast of Virginia every day for two years confirms. These are images of objects it cant, identify lieutenant graves, told us. Pilots, training off the Atlantic Coast see things like that. All the time, every day, every day for at least a couple of years worried every day for a couple of years, every day for years years, flying in restricted airspace is not a small thing. Try that in your Cessna one hundred and seventy two off of Virginia Beach sometime, he will will get wet, will get killed after days of daily incursions
come I didnt do anything about it. What possible explanation that they couldnt? I military was completely outmatched technologically by whatever these were, and they were not weather balloons. Here is the former director of the advanced aerospace identification program. You know how this sounds of. It sounds wacky im not telling you that it doesnt sound wacky, but im telling you is its real imagine, technology that can do six or 700g forces flight. Thirteen thousand miles an hour can evade radar and can fly through air and water and possibly space and has no obvious signs of propulsions no control surfaces and yet still can defy the natural effects of earths gravity thats. Precisely what we are seeing sound like a potential threat. You think so what does the Pentagon done about it?
We dont know the full story as of tonight, but we dont know that theyve done anything about it other than ignore it and then cover the fact they ignored it by declaring the whole subject classified for decades and then spending the rest of the day. Thinking about how to bomb Syria again and with the marine corps of people who voted for Donald Trump. The sad thing is: we have a whole new branch of the military that might be perfectly designed to assess what these things are and figure out. If they were a threat or not, there was ever a reason to have space for us. This might be it space forces otherwise occupied undertaking political purges of their own ranks. He was Lieutenant Colonel commanded, the space for us until the White House decided it was politics, since they can command as a commander about ten months ago. What I considered incompatible with what America is and should be
it wasnt, just prolific on social media or throughout the country during this past year, spreading throughout the United States military. I recognize those narratives as being marxist in nature, so every day for two years, unidentified flying objects, behaving in ways that seem to contradict what we know about physics in the: U Dot S military spending its time as of now, and what does this remind you? A clear and present threat appears on the horizon. The people in charge are so obsessed with loyalty to the party that they cant respond because there focused on attacking their own organization when they say all revolutions are the same. They are right, ufos are real and whatever else they are, they are a prima facie challenge to the: U Dot S military, doing things, the? U DOT, s military does not allow and they
are doing it and continued in appeared to be focused on the: U Dot S military bear. They have clustered around military installations, with no real response except more secrecy. At one point, unidentified flying objects shut down the nuclear weapons facility at an air force base in the state of Montana Ten Icbms, ballistic missiles were temporarily knocked off line and noticed a glowing red object. Floating in this guy seems like out of a movie, but it happen decades ago, many more citing around the country. According to journalist, George Knapp, all of the Nuclear Facilities Savannah Hill all have dramatic incidents with these unknown aircraft appearing over the facilities and no one knew where they were from or what they were doing there again for decades. This has happened. Apparently, no one knows why no one seems especially alarmed
in the 1950s some people worried about it. They classified an FBI document from seventy years ago to search unknown flying objects measuring fifty feet in diameter. More recently, declassified footage from a UFO incident in two thousand and four and two incidents from two thousand and fifteen. It was reported by Navy pilots for a training flight. We have no explanation for what these objects are. Just days ago, the Pentagon confirmed in an 182nd video of three Ufos: a u dot. S warship is real. That footage was shot in July of two thousand and nineteen and collected by the Ufos task force in that amount up in the hands of the journalist to put it online. So the question is: what are these things? Why are they buzzing our skies? Why do they seem attracted to the United States military and invite, above all, is in the.
