>> Tucker: SO THE LAST TIME A
PARTY IN CONGRESS OFFICIALLY
DESIGNATED THE OTHER PARTY A
TERRORIST ORGANIZATION, WE WERE
IN THE MIDDLE OF A CIVIL WAR.
SO THAT HASN’T HAPPENED IN OVER
150 YEARS.
TYPICALLY THE PARTIES ARGUE
ABOUT THINGS, SOMETIMES THEY GET
MAD AND CALL EACH OTHER NAMES,
SOMETIMES THEY GET REALLY MAD
AND CALL EACH OTHER REALLY BAD
NAMES, BUT ONE THING THEY DON’T
DO IS USE LAW ENFORCEMENT TO
CRUSH, HARASS, ARREST VOTERS ON
THE OTHER SIDE.
THAT IS NOT DEMOCRACY, THAT IS
TYRANNY.
BUT WE JUST MOVED ONE STEP
CLOSER TO TIERNEY.
IN FACT WE MAY ALREADY BE THERE
THANKS TO WHAT THE HOUSES
CALLING AND AN ANTI-DOMESTIC
TERRORISM BILL, BECAUSE MURDER
WAS NOT ILLEGAL ALREADY, THEY
JUST PASSED THE HOUSE AND
INSTRUCTS THE FBI TO "ANALYZE
AND MONITOR DOMESTIC TERRORIST
ACTIVITY."
HOW ARE WE DEFINING THAT?
OF COURSE WE ARE NOT DEFINING
THAT, IT INSTRUCTS THE FBI
IN OTHER WORDS, THE LARGEST
LAW ENFORCEMENT ORGANIZATION IN
THE UNITED STATES, TO MONITOR
JOE BIDEN’S CRITICS.
IT DRAMATICALLY EXPANDS THE
DEFINITION OF DOMESTIC TERROR TO
INCLUDE HATE CRIMES, WHATEVER
THOSE ARE.
IT ALSO MANDATES THAT THE FBI
AND THE DOJ CONDUCT ASSESSMENTS
AND DETERMINE WHETHER WHITE
SUPREMACIST HAVE "INFILTRATED
FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL
LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES."
WHAT IS A WHITE SUPREMACIST?
THEY DON’T TO FIND THAT, EITHER.
SO IF YOU’RE GOING TO PASS A LAW
THAT EMPOWERS PEOPLE WITH GUNS
TO MAKE ARRESTS, YOU PROBABLY
SHOULD DEFINE YOUR TERMS,
OTHERWISE IT WILL BE ABUSED.
UNLESS THE LAW WAS DESIGNED TO
BE ABUSED.
AND THIS ONE WAS.
SO UNDER THIS LAW, THESE
LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES MUST
ISSUE BIANNUAL DOMESTIC
TERRORISM REPORTS TO CONGRESS,
WITH A FOCUS ON THE THREAT
"POSED BY WHITE SUPREMACIST AND
NEO-NAZIS," BECAUSE IT TURNS OUT
THE ONLY FORM OF RACE
DISCRIMINATION IN THE COUNTRY
COMES FROM ONE GROUP, AND THEY
DON’T VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS, THAT
IS THE WHOLE POINT, THAT IS WHY
THE BILL DOES NOT MENTION BLM OR
ANTIFA.
IT IS NOT DEFINE WHITE
SUPREMACY.
AND THAT IS VERY ODD, BECAUSE
WHITE SUPREMACY IS THE ONLY
THING LAWMAKERS TALKED ABOUT AS
THEY VOTED ON THIS BILL.
>> RECENT WHITE SUPREMACIST
ATTACKS HAVE REMINDED MINORITY
COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY
OF A DARK HISTORY WE HAVE NOT
YET ESCAPED.
>> WE HAVE WITNESSED FAR TOO
MANY OTHER ACTS OF DOMESTIC
TERRORISM.
>> WE ARE AT AN IMPORTANT
CROSSROADS IN THIS COUNTRY.
WITH WHITE SUPREMACY ON THE RISE
AND VIOLENT EXTREMISTS FEELING
EACH OTHER’S BIGOTRY AND HATE,
WE ARE SEEING ALARMING INCREASE
AND DOMESTIC TERRORISM
FUELED BY THIS HATRED.
>> Tucker: NOW, KEEP IN MIND,
WHEN YOU HEAR PEOPLE LIKE THAT,
AND THOSE ARE SOME OF THE WORST
PEOPLE IN OUR SOCIETY BUT STILL
THEY ARE ELECTED MEMBERS OF
CONGRESS, WHEN YOU HEAR THEM
ATTACK WHITE SUPREMACISTS AND
WHITE SUPREMACY, YOU SHOULD KNOW
THAT THEIR DEFINITION OF THOSE
TERMS IS PROBABLY DIFFERENT FROM
YOURS.
SO IF YOU WERE TO QUOTE
MARTIN LUTHER KING JR., WHOSE
MONUMENT STANDS ON THE MALL, AND
SAY THAT THE U.S. GOVERNMENT
OUGHT TO TREAT PEOPLE BASED ON
WHO THEY ARE AND WHAT THEY DO
AND NOT HOW THEY LOOK AND HOW
THEY WERE BORN, ASSESS PEOPLE ON
THE CONTENT OF THEIR CHARACTER,
NOT THE COLOR OF YOUR SKIN, YOU
ARE BY DEFINITION ACCORDING TO
THE PEOPLE YOU JUST SAW A WHITE
SUPREMACIST.
THIS IS SCARY.
CONGRESSMAN CORI BUSH OF
MISSOURI SPELLED OUT THE PURPOSE
OF THE BILL WHICH IS OF COURSE
ENTIRELY POLITICAL.
"THE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS BECOME
THE PARTY OF UNFETTERED WHITE
SUPREMACIST VIOLENCE."
SO THERE WAS ONLY ONE REPUBLICAN
WHO VOTED FOR THIS BILL, AND
THAT IS A MAN WHO HAS BECOME
COMPLETELY UNDONE AND WHOSE
TOTAL DESTRUCTION AS A MAN
REALLY DOES DESERVE YOUR PITY,
AND THAT IS ADAM KINZINGER.
HERE IS WHAT HE SAID HE VOTED
FOR IT.
>> PEOPLE LIKE MARJORIE TAYLOR
GREENE, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE LIKE
MATT GAETZ, MO BROOKS, THE FOLKS
YOU THINK ABOUT, THEY ARE ALMOST
LEADING -- I WOULD ARGUE THAT
THEY ARE LEADING THE REPUBLICAN
CAUCUS, AND SO KEVIN McCARTHY,
ELISE STEFANIK, INSTEAD OF
LEAVING, AS THEIR TITLE,
LEADERSHIP, WHICH SUGGEST THEY
DO, THEY ARE BASICALLY
TOLERATING THIS ALL IN THE NAME
OF HOPEFULLY I BECOME SPEAKER
SOMEDAY.
YOU CAN’T FUND RAISE, YOU CAN’T
LIVE ON FEAR BECAUSE EVENTUALLY
YOU ARE GOING TO CREATE FEARFUL
PEOPLE AND FEARFUL PEOPLE CAN DO
REALLY BAD THINGS THAT I THINK
THAT IS WHAT WE SAW IN BUFFALO.
>> Tucker: SO THEY ARE
CONTINUING TO TELL YOU, IN THE
FACE OF ALL AVAILABLE EVIDENCE,
THAT THE MASS MURDER YOU SAW
OVER THE WEEKEND IN BUFFALO WAS
INSPIRED BY HATEFUL RIGHT-WING
RHETORIC WHEN IN FACT THAT MASS
MURDER WAS COMMITTED BY SOMEONE
WITH DIAGNOSED MENTAL ILLNESS
THAT THE ADULTS AROUND HIM
APPARENTLY IGNORED.
OKAY, SO A SHOOTING BY A CRAZY
PERSON THAT HAS BEEN HIJACKED BY
