community and world are a better place. tucker: if they were planting trees, i would probably spend the money. i would too. tucker: tried with mark, great to see you tonight. thank you. tucker: congressional ewmocrats thought they found a new excuse to push for impeachment. this time over president trump s conversation with the president ofof ukraine. now that scandal could, it turns out, with around like a boomerang and engulfed their own presidential front-runner joe biden. catherine herridge is of course our chief intelligence correspondent here at fox news entry joins us us to explain this story. thanks, good evening. a person familiar with the situation tells fox news thess whistle-blower did not have first-hand knowledge of the conversation between president trump and the ukrainian president adding the complaint makes clear the whistle-blower did not have direct knowledge of the july phone call. that matters because typically multiple u.s. officials are on these cal
tucker: catherine herridge, quite a story, thanks for that. you re welcome. tucker: well, the ukraine story appears to be falling apart, at least at the edges, but of course the same people who jump to wild and unfounded conclusionsd over russia are doing the same thing here. some of them have gone even farther. for example, former massachusetts governoror bill w bill weld, republican turned libertarian, he s challenging the president in the 2020 primaries, is calling trump a trader who deserves to be executed. t watch. talk about pressuring a foreign country to interfere with and control u.s. election, it couldn t be clearer, that s not just just undermining democratic institutions. that is treason. it s treason, pure and simple, and the penalty for treason under the u.s. code is death. that s the only penalty. tucker: death. charlie hurt is opinion editor over the washington times and author of the fantastic book still winning.
tape of the event that shows plumes of ozone-destroying meat smoke rising heavenward. the candidates standing amidst all this seem wholly unconcerned. are you surprised? don t be surprised. this is what climate activism has become, a performative stunt mixed with hypocrisy. these are the people who promised to crack down on our cheeseburgers while flying across the country private. no one says a word about it. last week millions of concerned progressives took part in the so-called climate strike. in their wake they left mounds of litter. just today in washington, climate activists demanded change by blocking roads, causing gridlock, and throwing confetti on the ground. [cheers and applause] tucker: well, if you re under 40, you might be surprised to learn that people didn t use to express concern about the
childhood, with your empty words. we are in the beginning of a mass extinction and all you can talk about is money and fairy tales of eternal economic growth. how dare you! if you really understood the situation and still kept on failing to act, then you would be evil and that i refuse to believe. tucker: you stole my childhood. do what i want you to do or else your w evil. how do you respond to statements like that? the truth is, you can t respond and of course that s r the poin. when you use children to demand power, they become a kind of human shield you can hide safely behind them. no one can criticize you. but who would do something that unscrupulous? anyone who would do that if someone who would literally do anything to seize control. and that s exactly what they re doing. president of the copenhagen consensus center of the author
minimize both of these, that is we maximize the benefits and minimize the cost trying to do that. we don t have that conversation. all the democrats want and most politicians around the world, simply want to say we are going to promise to do everything but of course remember they don t actually do that because doing that would be fantastically expensive. new zealand? they just promised to go carbon neutral in 2,050. they actually had the audacity to ask the official economic institute how much is this going to cost us and the answer was 16% of their gdp. that is more than the entire government spending right now in new zealand of everything we do. of course they re never going to actually do that, because they will have a revolt before that. tucker: yeah. it s just striking that every political solution i m aware of would increase the power of the politician suggesting it, which is a tip-off this is not about science, it s a n power grab and it s terrifying, in my view.
