This is a rush transcript from "Tucker Carlson Tonight," October 2, 2018. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.

TUCKER CARLSON, HOST: Well good evening and welcome to "Tucker Carlson Tonight." Just when you thought Hillary Clinton lost the last presidential election, you realize nobody told her that. This afternoon, Hillary weighed in on the Brett Kavanaugh hearings. Here's part of what she said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JEFFREY MARK GOLDBERG, THE ATLANTIC: Brett Kavanaugh said that the "political hit job" directed at him was being done on behalf of the Clintons, among other people. Your response?

HILLARY CLINTON, FORMER DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE: Ha-ha. Ha-ha.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Ooh, that laugh, it haunts your dreams. We'll have more on that and what it means because it is revealing later in the show.

Also, a new investigation reveals who exactly is funding many of the protesters you've seen scream at Republicans in public. You probably won't be surprised but we have confirmation tonight.

First though, when the Senate decided to delay Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation vote for a week in order to enable an FBI investigation, everyone who was not Jeff Flake understood the point of it. The investigation itself was irrelevant.

For Democrats, the only purpose was to buy time so that new people, some of them anonymously, could make allegations against Kavanaugh. That's exactly what happened, of course, and we've been the first to scoff at some of these claims because some have been frivolous, unfounded, some have been absurd.

But tonight, we must tell you a new and troubling story has emerged that could alter the trajectory not simply of the Kavanaugh nomination but of the history of this country.

It is a story of a young man, outwardly respectable but so morally distorted within, so addled by chronic dependency on draught beer, the witnesses say he committed a particularly heinous form of assault in a public place.

This man, this monster in human form, once tossed an ice cube at someone in a bar. Yes, an ice cube, the perfect weapon, in solid form, deadly. And then, within hours, it melts and evaporates into the air, all physical evidence turns to vapor. There are no fingerprints. It's diabolical. The perfect crime.

And frankly, from a constitutional standpoint it is disqualifying. Now, we'll concede that we missed the significance of this story at first. But the other networks were on it long before we were. Watch their coverage.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIPS)

JOHN BERMAN, CNN: --police documents that show that Brett Kavanaugh threw ice in someone's face.

--threw ice in someone's face--

DON LEMON, CNN: --accused him of throwing ice--

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: --accused Kavanaugh of throwing ice on him.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: The nominee threw ice on him.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: --accused him of throwing ice on him for "some unknown reason."

(END VIDEO CLIPS)

CARLSON: Icegate. Well the founders, the framers of our Constitution anticipated this very moment. Article III of the Constitution in words well known to every first-year law student are unequivocal on this subject. "Whoever shall throw ice in a tavern is disqualified from service in the federal judiciary." Game over.

And yet, ladies and gentlemen, there is more tonight. A former Yale student called Tad Low who apparently overlapped with Brett Kavanaugh in school has contacted the FBI with a brand new outrage.

Low says that at one time at a frat party, some fraternity brothers hired a prostitute to put on some kind of show that Low found offensive. Now, what does this have to do with Brett Kavanaugh, you might wonder?

Well as Low concedes, nothing directly. "I can't say for certain that Judge Kavanaugh was present in the frat house." And yet, and this is the critical part of this story, Brett Kavanaugh may have been in the State of Connecticut when this happened, the very same state at the very same time that people in a fraternity house were doing things that Ted Low didn't like.

Need we say more? Totally and utterly disqualifying. Still confused? Watch CNN. They'll explain. There've been a lot of stories like this lately. You may have noticed.

Julie Swetnick, for example, claims that 37 years ago, for some reason, she went to 10 gang-rape parties in a row in suburban Maryland, and that Brett Kavanaugh may have been at some of them. What did Brett Kavanaugh do at these parties?

Well Swetnick signed a sworn statement suggesting that Kavanaugh and friends added drugs and alcohol to the punch that facilitated the rapes that took place at these parties. Now, that's a very serious charge except as sweatness - Swetnick just explained in a televised interview, she didn't really mean it.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JULIE SWETNICK, JUDGE BRETT KAVANAUGH ACCUSER: I saw him around the punch, I won't say bowls, or the punch containers, I don't know what he did, but I saw him by them, yes.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Well you've heard Democrats talk a lot recently about how Brett Kavanaugh may have lied under oath. There's no evidence for that. There is now though quite a bit of evidence that Julie Swetnick just did.

Democrats don't care. They're not interested in finding out because "Hey, whatever works. Power is the point." And yet, they should care. Sexual assault is a horrifying crime no matter who commits it. All decent people understand that.

False claims trivialize the offense. And there have been a number of widely publicized false claims over the past 15 years, and they undermine the many assault victims who are telling the truth.

They make the search for justice seem political which it never should be. And worst of all, they are making the rest of us nearly as cynical as professional Democrats already are. That's a high cost.

Mollie Hemingway is the Senior Editor at The Federalist, and she joins us tonight. So, IceCubegate. Is this one of those moments that looking back on it 15 years from now, we're going to cringe in embarrassment that adults with college degrees could have taken something like this seriously?

MOLLIE HEMINGWAY, THE FEDERALIST: I would hope that we look back on this and cringe in embarrassment. I'm worried that this is the direction that things are going and that this type of attack will be used to discredit anyone that the media feels is a political enemy.

And what you've seen, I mean, yes, Icegate is a ridiculous story. And I want to clarify, the claim is that he may or may not have thrown ice, which is even more ridiculous than that he might have thrown ice. And--

CARLSON: Right.

HEMINGWAY: --and to make this be a big explosive expose is ridiculous. But all of them have been kind of increasingly ridiculous. And none of them have had supporting evidence.

And so, this is a very dangerous path to go down. And I'm worried that unless people really take a strong stand against this type of reporting and against this type of media campaign, where you just throw as many stories out there as possible, never mind the fact that they are uncorroborated, unsubstantiated or patently ridiculous that they will continue in the future.

CARLSON: So, but this is an asymmetrical event. So, on the one side you have people who are willing to do anything and lie about it. The Washington Post, for example, a purely political operation funded by the world's richest man, writes stories for their political effect. That's the point.

And yet, Republicans are playing by a set of rules devised in the 18th Century and they're very literal. Well there's a story, we must take it seriously. At what point do Republicans say, "You know what, this is a lie. I know the game. I get the joke. I'm not playing along."

HEMINGWAY: Right. There's a difference between joining with them in - in a very bad game where you attack people based on what they did in high school and otherwise--

CARLSON: Exactly.

HEMINGWAY: --but also you - that doesn't mean that you have to put up with it or go along with it or treat these things as - as sane, even. I mean a lot of these allegations never should have been promulgated by the media to begin with.

People are saying, "Oh, well we put this person on air so we can all see that she is ridiculous." Well that's true. You can see that some of these allegations are ridiculous when - when you show light on them. But there should be a basic standard.

I mean this is a human being who is being torn apart through this process. And then, also, even if they're acknowledging that some of the stories are ridiculous, at the same time they're putting forth stories of - that are ridiculous on their own. And so, there's just a lot of problems overall.

CARLSON: So why - I mean final quick question, but why does it fall to Lindsey Graham of all people to be the only Member of the United States Senate to say that out loud? Are there no other members who feel an obligation to protect their voters from false charges and to protect the country from falling into some kind of mob rule situation, which it is?

HEMINGWAY: I think - I think this is a very frustrating moment for a lot of people of goodwill whether they're Left or Right, they see what's going on. They know it's wrong. And yet, so many people who they expect to be leaders in Washington D.C. or otherwise are behaving as if what's going on is completely acceptable.

CARLSON: Yes.

HEMINGWAY: More people than Lindsey Graham should be standing up and saying "Halt the madness. This is insane. This is a real family. This is a real man. And this is a real country that has standards and we are not living up to those standards."

CARLSON: Normal people would like to be protected from the stuff they're exposed and in danger and their representatives don't seem to care. Mollie, thank you very much.

HEMINGWAY: Thank you.

CARLSON: Senator Jeff Flake said he was going to vote one way. Then he was screamed at in an elevator by a protester and immediately changed his opinion. So, that works. And that's why other lawmakers are now being targeted by protesters.

Guess who's funding them? We'll tell you. You probably already know. Plus, the President is speaking tonight in Mississippi. We're monitoring that speech. Of course, if news breaks, we'll be there immediately.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: --top, top in his class at Yale Law School. He's led like a life that's unbelievable. He's had no problems. They've never taken them out of restaurants. They've never did - this is like a person that everybody thought at the highest level. On both sides, they said someday he will be a Supreme Court Judge, right?

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

CARLSON: Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona announced initially he planned to vote yes for Brett Kavanaugh. And then he was confronted by two protesters in an elevator in the Senate. That was on tape. There it is.

One of the women who was screaming at him, it turns out, is a professional activist on the payroll of billionaire George Soros. Her name is Ana Maria Archila. She's co-executive director at the Center for Popular Democracy, which Soros funds.

Another protestor, who harassed Senators Mitch McConnell and Bob Corker, also, amazingly, works for that group.

Congressman Jim Jordan is a Republican. He represents the State of Ohio. He sits in the House Judiciary Committee. And we're happy to have him tonight. Congressman, are you surprised to learn this?

REP. JIM JORDAN, R-OHIO: No. I mean the Left has gone completely crazy. I mean you think about this. They applaud Kaepernick and they try to destroy Judge Kavanaugh. That - that's the - that's the modern-day Left, so doesn't really surprise me.

I said this the other day to a group I was addressing that they applaud Kaepernick when he disrespects the flag, they embraced Cuomo when he said America was never that great, and they cheer on Maxine Waters when she encourages people to go harass Republicans like what happened to Senator Flake so, this is just the Left.

And I think Americans see through this. And that's why so many folks across our district and, frankly, I was in Texas last week, I think around the country, want Judge Kavanaugh to be on the court and know he deserves to be on the court.

CARLSON: It's just a little weird to see this from a non-profit in Washington. I mean you think of non-profit organizations in D.C. as producing backgrounders helping formulate policy, it's impossible to imagine the Heritage Foundation saying to two employees, high level ones, "Hey go to National Airport and scream at Mazie Hirono as she gets in her Uber."

JORDAN: Yes.

CARLSON: I mean probably just so is that a legitimate--

JORDAN: We--

CARLSON: --use of a non-profit?

JORDAN: Well, I don't think so. But that's the Left today. I mean my wife and I got the - what I call the treatment two days after Maxine Waters clear back in June said "Go harass people who support the President," we got the treatment at the theater here in town. So look, we would - you and I would never do that to someone at a restaurant--

CARLSON: Of course not.

JORDAN: --at some public event, but the Left now thinks that's appropriate because look, again, they applaud Kaepernick, they attack and try to destroy Kavanaugh, that is the Left today.

And frankly, as we head into this campaign, I think that is what how we should frame this up. Here's the Left and all their craziness and then look at the record under President Trump's leadership in the last 20 months, how amazing that is.

Frame it up like that. If we do that, I think we can win. Think about the 20 - lowest unemployment in - in 20 years, 4.2 percent growth rate, taxes have been cut, regulations reduced, Kavanaugh going on the court, Gorsuch already there, we're out of that crazy Iran deal, the embassies in Jerusalem, the hostages have been returned from North Korea, contrast those up, I think we can win, particularly, when you demonstrate here is what the radical Left is up to in this country. That is what this election's about--

CARLSON: Right.

JORDAN: --and I hope that's the message we take across the country.

CARLSON: So very quick, for those of us who worry that this is accelerating into a really scary place, has anyone ever thought about going over to Maxine Waters' office and saying "You know, I get that we disagree. But please don't encourage physical confrontation or violence because, you know, that's dangerous?"

JORDAN: No. I - I don't know if that's been done. But I - I appreciate Liberals who - who come from a different perspective. I - I was good friends when he was here in Congress.

CARLSON: I hear too.

JORDAN: Dennis Kucinich, a friend of mine. And we agreed--

CARLSON: Good yes.

JORDAN: --on so many - so many First Amendment issues, Fourth Amendment, Bill of Rights issues, civil liberties, we could work together. But now, the - the Left, they don't seem to be where Dennis was. And he and I could work together on things.

CARLSON: I agree.

JORDAN: That is a scary thing for this country. And I know you know that and that's why it's so important you keep talking about this like you have been.

CARLSON: Congressman Jim Jordan of Ohio, thank you very much.

JORDAN: Thank you.

CARLSON: Dana Perino is the person we talk to when we want to understand the political ramifications of all this. Obviously, she hosts "The Daily Briefing" every day at 2 o'clock and she's the star of "The Five," the singular one, I would say. But that's just my view.

DANA PERINO, FOX NEWS: Thank you for having me.

CARLSON: So, what is the political effect of the Kavanaugh saga?

PERINO: As the President likes to say, we'll see what happens. It is really high stakes and everybody is super engaged. They were sort of like waiting like what would be the October surprise? Well I think that actually the Kavanaugh is it. For Republicans, they could benefit in certain places, for example, in the states like North Dakota.

CARLSON: Yes.

PERINO: You see Heidi Heitkamp now down 10 to her Republican challenger. That's really big and it's going to be hard for her to come back from that. Also Missouri, Indiana, and West Virginia, but it could help Democrats in House seats and also some gubernatorial seats. And it might help them where races are really tight in Senate races like New Jersey and Florida, maybe Nevada and Arizona.

So, I think from that perspective we don't know. There are, I think, three Democratic sets of parties that are going to, I think - call it - call it the Kavanaugh blast zone--

CARLSON: Yes.

PERINO: --then they're not happy about it.

The first ones would be the red-state Democrats who face voters in five weeks, those are those people like Heidi Heitkamp, I mentioned, Joe Manchin, Joe Donnelly, all of them are in states where the polling shows that Republicans strongly support the President, they strongly support Judge Kavanaugh and that one of the number one reasons they went to vote in 2016 was the Supreme Court.

Then the second one would be the 2020 Democratic Senators who want to run for president but they're not on the Judiciary Committee.

CARLSON: Right.

PERINO: Right now, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker are having all the fun. And people like Elizabeth Warren, she has to figure out a way to stay in the news.

So, this past weekend, she said, "By the way, I might run for president," after just three weeks ago saying "Of course, I'm not going to run for president." So, they're trying to figure out how to get in there.

But the biggest loser probably will be Joe Biden, who actually arguably could be one of their most - their - their best candidates against Donald Trump in 2020--

CARLSON: Yes.

PERINO: --but because of this, and if you go back to the Anita Hill hearings, he's going to have such a hill to overcome that they might have just shot him in the foot.

CARLSON: Interesting. So but you think if it hadn't been for this, he would have been a legitimate contender?

PERINO: Well, I think timing is everything.

CARLSON: Right.

PERINO: And of course, you could say there's all these improbabilities for why but one name ID is super important, and he has the highest name ID of any Democrat. He's certainly testing the waters to see if he could run.

And he's got energy and he wants to fight against Trump, and he's one of those Democrats that might be able to bring back some of those blue-collar workers that you write about in your great new book, Ship of Fools that you won't promote on your own show.

CARLSON: Well you put a bow on that sentence. I - I thought Joe Biden had a shot in 1988, so he might be one of these perpetual --

PERINO: That's - well that's why President Trump - Trump calls him the 1 percent Joe.

CARLSON: It's pretty funny. Dana, great to see you. Thank you.

PERINO: Thanks for having me.

CARLSON: The ACLU used to stand up for, indeed, stand for civil liberties. They're the ones who reminded us that due process is the most important thing. Not anymore. They say they know for certain Kavanaugh is guilty, no trial necessary. What happened to them? We'll tell you next.

Plus, President is speaking in Mississippi tonight. We're monitoring his speech, in case news occurs, in which case we will be there in a flash. That's our promise. Stay tuned.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: --running for president and then Obama took him off the trash heap, right? Biden, I hear Biden wants to take me to the back of a barn. He would be in big trouble. I will tell you.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

CARLSON: Well the conflagration over Judge Brett Kavanaugh is quickly growing out of control. It's turning into a wildfire that threatens its own creators because as you know the revolution always consumes the people who started it.

Case in point, Senate challenger Beto O'Rourke who's running against Ted Cruz in Texas is now apologizing, groveling in a craven way for what misdeed? Well it turns out, he wrote a musical review at the age of 19 for the Columbia student newspaper.

He was known as Robert then. He was fresh out of boarding school. In that piece, he says this that the Will Rogers Follies had actresses who were chosen "For their phenomenally large breasts and tight buttocks."

So, he's obviously evil. Would ignore this whole thing as dumb and irrelevant but that would be a mistake. We says - it says somewhere in the Constitution we just learned, by the way, I think, on MSNBC, that dumb college essays categorically disqualify you from serving in the U.S. Senate.

At the very minimum, we ought to have an FBI investigation to see if O'Rourke, I don't know, ever admitted to not liking Toni Morrison novels, maybe two FBI investigations because we need to know.

Well the ACLU has been around a long time. And it built its reputation defending free speech and especially due process, especially for the politically unpopular. It saved lives at the beginning of its existence. That was the whole point of the ACLU.

Those traditional principles are being washed away though in the tide of derangement that has now seized the Left and the ACLU has decided to join that tide. They are now running an ad declaring Kavanaugh guilty without the need for a trial or in fact any evidence. Watch.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We've seen this before. Denials from powerful men.

FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON: I did not have sexual relations with that woman.

BILL COSBY, COMEDIAN: I've never seen anything like this.

SUPREME COURT NOMINEE JUDGE BRETT KAVANAUGH: I categorically and unequivocally deny - deny the allegation against me by Dr. Ford.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: America is watching. And as we choose a lifetime seat on our highest court, integrity matters, and we cannot have any doubt. Senator Gardner oppose the confirmation of Judge Kavanaugh.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Chris Hahn is a radio show host, former aide to Senator Chuck Schumer, probably a donor to the ACLU and he joins us tonight. Chris, it's great to see you.

CHRISTOPHER HAHN, RADIO SHOW HOST: Yes.

CARLSON: So you're, you know, pushing late middle-age, like I am. You've been around long enough to remember what the ACLU has been doing for the past--

HAHN: Wait, wait, wait late?

CARLSON: Whatever unless, you know, you're probably--

HAHN: Middle-aged.

CARLSON: --over 30.

HAHN: Middle-aged.

CARLSON: We're middle-aged.

HAHN: I am.

CARLSON: But you've watched the ACLU over time--

HAHN: Yes.

CARLSON: --and you know they were founded to defend free speech and due process, civil liberties. And yet, here they just ran an ad suggesting a man is guilty on the basis of no evidence because he shares some resemblance to two other guys, who are probably guilty. That's guilt by association. That's the opposite of due process. Why is the ACLU doing this, I wonder?

HAHN: Well they're not declaring him guilty. In fact, I don't think anybody's trying to declare him guilty. What we're trying to do is pick a Supreme Court Justice, and guilt or innocence is really not the issue here.

He's not on trial for his life. He's applying for a job. We've got to ask the question has he been truthful in that inquiry, and the answer is no, I would say. I don't know for sure about the sexual assault allegation although I do believe Dr. Ford. But I do know that some of the things--

CARLSON: Wait, wait --

HAHN: --he talked about last Thursday--

CARLSON: Wait, wait, wait, hold on, I'm - I'm sorry--

HAHN: --he was not forthcoming about.

CARLSON: --OK, OK. So, before we get to what you think he specifically lied about, I just want to rewind a second to what you said because it strikes me as amazing.

You're saying that without finding someone guilty of anything, it's OK to destroy his reputation to the point where he can't get paying work, and can't get the job that he was nominated for by the President of the United States. No, I'm - I'm serious. He just had to withdraw as a lecturer at Harvard--

HAHN: Right.

CARLSON: --because his reputation has been so sullied. He hasn't been found guilty of anything. There's no actual evidence to show he did anything, but that's OK with you because--

HAHN: Right.

CARLSON: --we're not in a trial, is that what you're saying? That's the new standard?

HAHN: What I'm saying is you got to ask the question, is this man fit for a lifetime appointment that will never ever face the voters, will never face Congress again, and if you feel in your heart that this man may have committed this thing or he hasn't been truthful to that committee, which--

CARLSON: Oh--

HAHN: --I will tell you I don't believe he was truthful--

CARLSON: Wait, wait, wait, hold on so that's - I just want to get--

HAHN: --to the committee.

CARLSON: --I - he lied but that's un-provable so it's not even worth debating on TV, I would say. But to the first point --

HAHN: Well they all are.

CARLSON: --the standard is if you feel in your heart, so if I feel in my heart that you're a--

HAHN: Yes.

CARLSON: --child molester, I don't have any actual evidence, can I start telling people that on TV and see how it affects your family and how it affects your employment? What your kids think of it?

HAHN: I am - I am not running - I am not--

CARLSON: Well no if I feel in my heart like sincerely feel in my heart--

HAHN: --I - I am not - I am not trying to get a lifetime appointment on the bench and nobody's accusing--

CARLSON: OK. Well, no but - but, hold on, that's a single --

HAHN: --him of anything that somebody did not come forward credibly--

CARLSON: --OK, but, well I don't - I don't know--

HAHN: --accused him. He was credibly accused of something but let's--

CARLSON: --no but, but, but, no, but hold on, hold on--

HAHN: You know, Tucker--

CARLSON: --he's been accused of a lot of things. Credibly is a subjective term. Is it OK if you, quote, feel in your heart that someone's guilty to systematically destroy him and his family? And you're saying yes because it's so important because abortion or whatever. But is that really a standard--

HAHN: Did you - did you find--

CARLSON: --you want to live under ?

HAHN: --did you find Dr. Ford credible?

CARLSON: I - I'm not really sure. I - she wasn't asked real questions like for example, when did you recall this?

HAHN: Well--

CARLSON: Have you known it for 30 years and not said it to one person and then told your therapist about it?

HAHN: --well, you--

CARLSON: That's a - that's the basic question. Nobody asked it--

HAHN: --you're smart enough to know that--

CARLSON: --because you're too afraid, that's why.

HAHN: --that survive - you're smart enough and to know that traumatic experiences sometimes you only remember the trauma not all the--

CARLSON: I don't know what I know. I don't know what I know. That's why I ask real questions on my show.

HAHN: ----other details around it. You're smart enough to know that.

CARLSON: I'm not bullied into silence by a bunch of--

HAHN: So - so, I - I found her credible and I think--

CARLSON: --activists.

HAHN: --I think - I think you found her credible too but in addition to that--

CARLSON: I don't know I didn't - she didn't answer any questions.

HAHN: --he lied about little things. He lied about what the Renata Alumni was. He lied about what the Ralph Club was. He lied to Congress. He cannot--

CARLSON: Whoa, whoa, whoa, you're saying--

HAHN: --be on the Supreme Court.

CARLSON: --he lied about the Ralph Club? Over. Done. I agree.

HAHN: And the Renata Alumni Club --

CARLSON: And so look, you lie about the Ralph Club and you're done.

HAHN: --and what it meant.

CARLSON: I feel that in my heart. Let me just say. This is so crazy.

HAHN: Look, you got to be--

CARLSON: I'm saving this tape.

HAHN: --truthful.

CARLSON: All right. OK.

HAHN: You got why lie about it though, my - my thing - my thing, Tyler - my thing, Tucker--

CARLSON: Especially about the Ralph Club, I agree.

HAHN: --is why lie about--

CARLSON: OK.

HAHN: --that? It was something he could have just said I was a dumb kid and I did--

CARLSON: I'll let you--

HAHN: --you know, we caught we Ralph when we drank--

CARLSON: --I'm going to let you over the last word--

HAHN: --well it was just a beer prank he could have just said that. Instead, he lied.

CARLSON: OK. With the last word on the Ralph Club, Chris Hahn, thank you very much.

This is a Fox News alert: We promised to monitor the ongoing Trump rally, Mississippi for some news and we have some. The President advised the Brett Kavanaugh - addressed rather the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation about five minutes ago. He spoke about Christine Ford, NBC and the creepy porn lawyer at the center of a lot of this. Here's what he said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: How did you get home? I don't remember. How'd you get there? I don't remember. Where is the place? I don't remember. How many years ago was it? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

What neighborhood was it? And I don't know. Where's the house? I don't know. Upstairs, downstairs, where was it? I don't know. But I had one beer. That's the only thing I remember. And a man's life is in tatters, a man's life is shattered.

We had another woman just reported by a sleazebag lawyer named Avenatti. Sleazebag! Sleazebag! We have - well it turned out even NBC who's as bad as they get, even NBC couldn't shield her with that interview. Did you see that interview? This woman had no clue what was going on.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: That was the President just minutes ago. We'll continue to monitor the rally if more news emerges. And we'll have an update on that Georgetown professor, Christine Fair, who says people with a certain skin color should be murdered, castrated, and fed to annals but it's cool because free speech. The only person guaranteed free speech on campus is calling for killing over at Georgetown. We've got details.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

CARLSON: Georgetown University professor Christine Fair is a lunatic and a hater but she's become the face of the Trump resistance. In response to the Kavanaugh hearings fear tweet - Fair rather tweeted that White men on the Senate Judiciary Committee should be killed. They should be castrated and their bodies fed to pigs.

Not making that up. Read the tweet. It's on the screen.

Georgetown University was asked about this. They didn't care. She apparently is the only person at Georgetown with free speech rights. Twitter has suspended her account briefly.

Asra Nomani is a former Georgetown professor. Fair once publicly denounced her as a Nazi enabler for voting for Donald Trump. Asra Nomani joins us tonight.

What do you make of this? Were you surprise - I've never really seen anything like this. These aren't political opinions. They're - they're a summons to violence and mutilation. Were you surprised?

ASRA NOMANI, FORMER GEORGETOWN PROFESSOR: Well I've long known for last two years since Election Day 2016 that she was, you know, part of this extremist Left that sadly has found new power in America. I confronted her on her own smears against me. And she felt like she had a self-righteous indignation that she was allowed to express all of this.

What is particularly disturbing about her latest attack is that she's an expert on South Asia. And she knows that this is exactly what the Afghan Taliban did to a former President of Afghanistan named Najibullah.

They castrated him. They hung him so that they could terrorize the people of Afghanistan. And so, for me, what she is tweeting is not just a simple, single, you know, troubling remark, but part of this larger dynamic that we face over the last two years that I consider it an extremist alt-Left insurgency in America that is trying to topple this government with any means necessary.

And we see it from this bird-dogging, you know, strategy that they've got, cornering senators and congressmen in the elevators--

CARLSON: Right.

NOMANI: --this has been two years in the making. And I didn't get to hear your earlier segment.

But all of the players here are the same ones that marched on the day after President Trump's inauguration. They were all funded by the Open Society Foundation, as you mentioned, by billionaire George Soros who, unfortunately, couldn't get his candidate, Hillary Clinton, into office.

And so, for the last two years they have been empowered time and time again to try to topple our government and - by any means necessary and this is disturbing.

CARLSON: So, you're describing an activist group using radical means to achieve political ends. I buy that completely.

What baffles me is why long-standing institutions like Georgetown University, which has a lot of alumni and reasonable people who work there or The Washington Post, which wrote a piece defending Professor Fair tonight, why are they defending--

NOMANI: Well--

CARLSON: --calls to violence all of a sudden?

NOMANI: Yes. It's unbelievable. I mean it's this double standard that anybody who agrees with you and is inside your tribe is OK, no matter what they say. But if somebody is outside your tribe then they are fair game to take down.

And so, you know, last week, I was here at the Capitol from midnight to try to get a seat at the hearing because I wanted to decide for myself what was - who was telling the truth--

CARLSON: Yes.

NOMANI: --what - what was the reality? Well I was number three in line. And, you know, I couldn't get a seat because they had all been given away.

CARLSON: Yes.

NOMANI: One of which was given to the actress, you know, that was sitting behind Judge Kavanaugh. What we face today are people who are going into these hearing rooms, people who are going into our democracy with not the idea of civil society that we had always hoped would run our country, but an insurgency. And that is so disturbing to me--

CARLSON: Yes.

NOMANI: --and distressing.

CARLSON: Ooh, your words are - are distressing to me because I know they are true. Professor, thanks a lot for joining us tonight. Appreciate it. I hope you'll come back.

NOMANI: Absolutely. Thank you so much for taking the time to try to bring people into balance.

CARLSON: Of course, we are for balance.

NOMANI: Yes.

CARLSON: Victor Davis Hanson is one of the smartest people we know. He's a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution and he joins us tonight. You're one of the few guests I would just ask what's your assessment of what is happening right now tonight?

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON, HISTORIAN: Well I think that with all these incidents of professors saying certain things and asymmetrical treatment toward them, we're starting to see that if you're conservative and you are zealous in expression about the Kavanaugh hearings, it's a window into your dark soul.

If you're progressive, it's proof of your zealousness for right and righteous indignation. But it - it's illustrative, Tucker, that the values of the campus are no longer esoteric or irrelevant. They've been transmogrified right into the Congress--

CARLSON: Exactly.

HANSON: --right into the - the heart of American governance.

We saw at Yale or Berkeley, students rushed professor Christakis at Yale but now we're seeing the same thing with Jeff Flake. Lindsey Graham said he felt it was dangerous to walk to the Senate.

And we're starting to see Cory Booker - Booker, I couldn't believe it, he said "I believe your truth," to Dr. Ford. And I thought, wait a minute, there is one truth that we find through cross-examination, witnesses testimonies.

They're not just equal narratives but that's exactly what the university preaches in post-modern English department that there's a variety of truths and you can pick which one you want and they become valid depending on access to power, race, class, or gender.

We still have and we have the same idea of prolonged adolescence where we have these 18, 19, and 20 year olds that we invent things like micro- aggressions, trigger warnings, safe space so they won't be hurt. These are people whose great-grandfathers were dying in places like Guadalcanal and Okinawa at 18.

And yet, now in the Congress, we're not supposed to be too aggressive in cross examination or we don't want to pursue certain lines of examination because we - we've confused the entire idea of being sincere with being credible.

Dr. Ford was sincere and she was empathetic. But that did not translate into being credible. Credibility is established by evidence, cross- examination, testimony, and the messy process of cross-examination.

And it's not - it's not established by accusing, considering the accused guilty or relying on hearsay or not knowing any of the key details that might adjudicate who is telling the truth or not. So, the campus is in the Congress and that's a scary idea.

CARLSON: So, let me just ask very quickly, this is almost a rhetorical question, but conservatives have fought for 40 years to lower the marginal tax rates. I think that's a virtuous thing to work toward. But they spent almost no time at all trying to reclaim college campuses for education. Should they have?

HANSON: Yes. I think they should have. I think that when they give money, and a lot of very wealthy people give money to the universities, they should target that - that donation. The worst thing you can do is throw gasoline onto them fire by getting your name on a building and not knowing how your money is going to be spent.

CARLSON: Yes.

HANSON: We got - we need to look at a lot of medieval practices from tenure to the admissions processes, which are not transparent. And it's a protected - it's a protected institution. It's time that we--

CARLSON: Exactly.

HANSON: --put a little light on and see if it's - if it follows the practices of due process.

CARLSON: It's time to nail 95 theses to the front door of Harvard. I totally agree with that. Professor, thank you--

HANSON: Yes.

CARLSON: --very much.

HANSON: Thank you. Thank you.

CARLSON: Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana says that he is fed up with what he sees as a witch-hunt against Brett Kavanaugh. He joins us next to explain.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

SEN. JOHN KENNEDY, R-LA.: This entire thing makes me want to heave.

If you think this is about searching for the truth, you ought to put down the bong.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

CARLSON: Because self-awareness, as a category, has totally disappeared from the earth, like the dinosaurs, this happened today. America's best- known dismisser of sexual misconduct allegations weighed in, of course, on the Brett Kavanaugh saga to remind us we need to believe all women.

While appearing at the Atlantic Festival, Hillary Clinton said that now that the allegations are less credible, and don't involve her husband, she's OK with just believing accusers and ditching the account of anyone else. Watch.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

HILLARY CLINTON: --women, and young women and girls, are saying you have to hear our stories too.

They've been historically dismissed, condescended to--

--picked apart, second guessed, held to a double standard, and at some point it just is time to say, enough.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Though there's a guy who says he's a journalist sitting next to her, you can be certain that no meaningful follow-up questions were asked, of course. Hillary Clinton also went on to say that Kavanaugh became too angry after being accused of gang-rape and, therefore, he shouldn't sit on the Supreme Court. Watch.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

HILLARY CLINTON: I mean, really?

I thought it was just part of the whole of his very defensive and, un - you know, unconvincing presentation.

But I think for anyone who believes there's such a thing as a judicial temperament and that we want judges, particularly those on our highest court, to approach issues, approach plaintiffs and defendants, with a sense of fairness, that there's a lot to be concerned about.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: I mean it's just it's totally Orwellian. But again, nobody noted that as she spoke. Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana though noticed it. Here's what he said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

KENNEDY: This entire thing makes me want to heave.

If you think this is about searching for the truth, you ought to put down the bong.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Senator Kennedy joins us tonight. Put down the bong. Do you think that there are people in the United States Senate, any people, who believe that this is on the level and that Democrats are acting in good faith as they were - asked for this investigation?

KENNEDY: I think there are some Democrats in good faith. But I - I think some of - of their colleagues it isn't about searching for the truth. It's about winning. Just win baby, win--

CARLSON: Yes.

KENNEDY: --doesn't matter who gets destroyed. And the - these are people, I'm not going to name names, but I'm not sure they have a soul. I don't think their mother breastfed them. I think they went right to raw meat. If Dr. Ford's in the way, destroy her. Breach her confidentiality. Destroy your kids. Destroy her family.

Brett Kavanaugh's in the way? Destroy him and his kids and his reputation. And then, after calling him a rich, drunk, lying, sexual predator, they criticized him for defending himself.

Now, having said that, I'm a - I'm a lot more sanguine than some folks around here. I know the Democrats think they're winning. But, you know, sometimes falling feels like you're flying for a little while.

I predict that Brett Kavanaugh will be confirmed. They think he's a smoked turkey. You watch. I think he'll be confirmed. And I think he'll be confirmed within the next week.

CARLSON: Do - are you alone in thinking that?

KENNEDY: I think there's some who doubt that we're winning. I'm not one of them. I also think that the American people despite the fact that many in Washington D.C. believe they're much smarter than - than - than Americans, I think - I think the American people, most mainstream Americans, see right through this. And I - and I hope - I hope they're motivated enough to go vote. It's not going to change.

CARLSON: Right.

KENNEDY: You - you can't fix stupid. But you can vote it out.

CARLSON: So - I - this is a complex topic. But I - I want your crisp summation of it because I think it's important. So, you've introduced a new bill into Congress that targets banks that infringe on gun rights. Can you sum that up for our viewers?

KENNEDY: Yes. My bill would say that the General Services - Services Administration cannot do business on behalf of the American taxpayer with any bank that describes - decides to discriminate - to discriminate against a lawful business on the basis of social policy.

For example, Citigroup and Bank of America don't believe in the Second Amendment. And they've decided they won't do business with any - with any businesses that - that sell automatic weapons, semi-automatic weapons or handguns.

Now, my cup - their copy of the Bill of Rights goes from one to three. My copy includes the Second Amendment. And when they almost went broke in 2008 and the American taxpayer had to give Citigroup $475 billion and Bank of America $336 billion, I don't recall Citigroup or Bank of America saying "Well now wait, which of you believe in the Second Amendment? I don't want your money."

CARLSON: Yes.

KENNEDY: They took everybody's money. So, we don't need red banks or blue banks. We need safe banks. And I have a feeling that they - they have - if they think they have too much time on their hands so they need to make social policy instead of Congress, then - then maybe they ought to look at their balance sheets.

CARLSON: It's hard to state how wonderful I - I - I think that is and how glad I am to hear it, finally, somebody. Senator, thanks so much. We're going to be watching that for sure.

KENNEDY: Thanks, Tucker.

CARLSON: Great to see you.

KENNEDY: You too.

CARLSON: We've got a little bit of news right after the break. We hope you will stick with us till then. We'll be right back.

TEXT: TUCKER'S BOOK IS OUT TODAY.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

CARLSON: We've told you a lot about Amazon on this program, in particular, how Jeff Bezos, the world's richest man has kept many of his workers in poverty.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Nearly one in three Amazon employees in Arizona, for example, was on food stamps last year.

Taxpayers shouldn't be making up the difference for the employees of the single richest man in the world.

I find it disgusting and wrong and actually incomprehensible that he would have people working for him that are so poor, I'm paying for their food stamps.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CARLSON: Well it is disgusting and wrong and incomprehensible so much so that Amazon didn't even defend itself because there was no doing that. They instead responded today.

To our surprise, the company announced that all its employees, whether full-time or part-time or seasonal, will now receive a minimum wage of $15 an hour, that's double the federal minimum wage.

In a statement, Bezos said, "We listened to our critics, thought hard about what we wanted to do, and then decided we wanted to lead."

Well Amazon still constitutes one of the most dangerous concentrations of power in the world. We're still concerned about that. But they did the right thing here for whatever reason. At the very least, they still care about public relations, so that's a way.

What do you do about the craziness enveloping your world where you can vote but you could also understand why it's happening, Ship of Fools, my book out today explains the whole story. Pick it up. See you tomorrow.

SEAN HANNITY, FOX NEWS: All right, Tucker, thank you. Congrats on the book, by the way.

CARLSON: Thank you, Sean.
