It was revealed today by The New York Times that Rod Rosenstein allegedly discussed secretly the possibility of recording President Trump and enlisting cabinet members to entrap him on the road to impeachment through the 25th Amendment. Rosenstein has categorically denied the allegations. Tucker raised the point that if it was McCabe (a man about to be indicted) who provided the basis of this story, then who is the more credible to believe? McCabe? Or Rosenstein?
Reporter Kristin Fisher informed audiences that Rosenstein's criticism may have only been "sarcastic." Congressman Matt Gaetz from Florida made the comment that even if Rosenstein were being jocular, it seems inappropriate conduct, given the serious nature of situation. Tucker also discussed with Gaetz the delay in releasing the documents that President Trump ordered earlier in the week . Gaetz has confidence that Horovitz will decide in favor of full disclosure. The Deep State cannot hide forever behind redactions.
A new deadline has been given to Christine Blasey Ford, who is now on the clock to inform Congress by 10pm this evening whether or not she will testify about her allegations concerning Brett Kavanaugh. For Tucker, the only way to learn more about the alleged incident is to hear from Ford herself. But it would appear that the goal for the Democrats is to ensure that the nomination is delayed. Ford is now at the center of a controversy revolving around power and is being used by the lawyers. Dana Perino appeared on the show to offer the opinion that Grasley's strategy is smart in requiring the deadline. She also observed the odd request of Ford that Kavanaugh be required to testify first. In other words, he would not even know what are the details of her allegations of his accuser.
Tucker played a montage of television pundits making the attempt to turn the Kavanaugh case into a story of "race." For Tucker, legal cases are determined by facts, not "race." Former Schumer aide Chris Hahn joined Tucker and tried to shift the conversation to the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas conflict of 1991. But Hahn never shed light on why there has been such resistance from Ford to testify when Hill courageously made her way to Capitol Hill in an era without the Metoo movement.
Tucker showed data that reveal that the percentage of women who find Ford's story credible is smaller than the percentage of men. He also indicated that only 5% of Democrats polled in Minnesota believe the charges leveled by a woman against Keith Ellison are credible. Tucker's guest Beverly Hallberg, president of District Media Group, believes that women genuinely want to see due process for both men and women. The politicizing of such a serious allegation is disrespectful to the goals of the Metoo movement.
Tucker followed up briefly on last night's exposé of Google employees discussing how to skew search results politically in their search algorithm. Google's response was that they like to engage in "brainstorming" exercises, and the company has no plans to change its methods. No employees were disciplined, and the tech giant stands by its story that no changes were made to their platform to try to influence the election.
Dan Bongino, author of "Spygate," appeared to discuss the Rod Rosenstein allegations. For Bongino, this is "triple, double reverse psychology" at work. Even if the story is only partially true, how is it that we are supposed to believe that our government is "of, by, and for the people"? The public has a right to believe in its government.
In the final segment, Tucker interviewed film actor/producer Dean Cain about his upcoming film "Gosnell: The Trial of America's Biggest Serial Killer" about an abortionist. Cain had difficulty in the funding and promotion of the film. Regarding the various Hollywood videos that are already calling for the rejection of Kavanaugh's nomination, Cain believes that the videos are purely political, and there is not a commensurate outrage from women who have accused Democratic male political figures of abuse.
