business philosophies wholeheartedly personally because i don t know enough about them, but i will say this, a person with his background tends to favor stability, as do global markets. he understands how the global marketplace works. that necessarily make him a globalist? no. seems like as secretary of state would be someone who leans much more toward peace and ultimate stability. sandra: interesting you say that where we re seeing u.s. stock market hit another record high as it is widely speculated another businessman one of his top picks for the administration. this is an odd choice. i would have preferred someone with more diplomatic and more foreign policy experience. it is difficult to unite two sides the republican party and marco rubio, rand paul, your favorite coming out having questions about this choice. if his ties so russia are commercial, that s fine. i have a problem with it. ceo of biggest oil company in the world. russia was rich with natural resources. that ....
presenti prerogative. calling for genocide of all jews is celebrating this decision. and celebrating it because it distances the chances of peace. reporter: we pitch pushed is on this decision that the u.s. was behind it from the beginning. they have not put any evidence forward. in fact, saying in an odd twist, they will provide it to the next administration after this is out of office. mean while, obama s administration going on television to defend their decision. by definition, this is not an ambush when president obama and secretary kerry have been saying in hundreds of conversations and public comments that israeli settlement activity was pushing into the west bank in a way that was making the two-state solution unachievable. netanyahu has made it clear he is not backing down. last night, he called his because i m con iffdent if i f i had run again and articulated it, i think i could have mobile ey a majority of the american people. trump said he should say that ....
i think what we need to focus on, whether it is black or white or or straight, making sure that we have hate crime laws like this throughout the country, that protect people like this individual that was brutalized by those four maniacs. to be when i don t believe in hate crimes laws. i don t think we should prosecute people based on their thoughts. you don t think is a hate crime? tucker: i think hate is involved, i m merely saying it is a separate category. i m also opposed to lying and downplaying something that is obvious. it is clear that this man s race and political position played a role. absolutely. tucker: that is not all clear from the accounts that were prevalent today. the associated press, and the first account, didn t measure tl angles. i wonder why that was. i don t know. what i can say here, the charges came down from the prosecutor, the final arbiter, there is no arbiter of the case. people reporting the facts, which is, this individual was charged ....
so we haven t had a chance to digest it. but the attorney general in his confirmation hearings was very clear with a one-word answer when asked by a senator whether he had contact with the russians in any way, shape, or form. he said no, period. no condition, no modification. so obviously that turns out to not be accurate there is no reason to believe that jeff sessions in the confirmation hearing was trying to hide something. he may simply have forgotten. but it does mean two things. number one, it adds to the incredible weight of evidence that the administration is not credible on these issues. remember a couple of weeks ago when we heard that michael flynn was talking to the russian ambassador simply to wish him merry christmas. and of course that turns out not to be true. and michael flynn is no longer national security adviser. so this white house has a very, very significant credibility problem. and it s with respect to attorney general sessions, what this means, and again, ....
and we know how that turned out. god, you may want to intervene here. i want to just pray for arnold, if we can, for those ratings. i m not worried about arnold s ratings. i m worried about what are we going to do about iran. i m in favor of additional sanctions against iran. nothing is off the table. reporter: officials in the u.s. military raising major concerns over president trump s hastily approved ground strike in yemen. he doesn t make executions like that glibly. he did make the call at dinner, right? i can t reveal where he made the call. president trump s enemies within the administration continue an unprecedented level of leaking for a presidency that is not yet two weeks old. there are new leaks tonight about the president s role in launching a mission in yemen in which u.s. navy s.e.a.l. william owens became the first american killed in yemen. counsel of different people. there were other people around the table including his secretaries and ge ....
