1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,280
Speaker 1: Time, how we can save the next generation.

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,159
Speaker 2: We've got our show and the info is an antidote.

3
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 2: But we also have a couple of books coming out Clay.

4
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: That's right, and you can pre order both of them

5
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: right now and be book nerds just like us.

6
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,239
Speaker 2: You'll laugh, you'll nod, and you'll get smarter too.

7
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: Mine's called balls, how Trump young men in sports saved America.

8
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 2: And mine is manufacturing delusion, how the Left uses brainwashing,

9
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 2: indoctrination and propaganda against you.

10
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: Both are great reads. Welcome in. It is going to

11
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: be a hard show. It is going to be a

12
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: difficult show. I imagine that a lot of you are

13
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 1: like both the Buck and myself. It's hard to sleep.

14
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,559
Speaker 1: May not have gotten a lot of sleep, probably have

15
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: been hopefully hugging your kids, your grandkids closer, and trying

16
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 1: to deal with the fact that we live in a

17
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: world where if you have the wrong opinion, and I

18
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: know many of you, sadly, including me, have expected things

19
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: like these. We've been talking about it, unfortunately for over

20
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: a year after President Trump took a bullet to the ear.

21
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: It's awful. We ended yesterday's show. Buck and I, if

22
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: you watch on video, are regularly scrolling through our phone

23
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,199
Speaker 1: to make sure that we are the absolute best informed

24
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: and get you information as fast as we possibly can.

25
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: And Buck saw it first yesterday during the show, and

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: I could see in his face that something was very bad.

27
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 1: And unfortunately, about an hour after the show ended, Buck,

28
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 1: you were basically on Fox News when it happened. And

29
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk is gone, thirty one years old. He leaves

30
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: behind a young son, young daughter, very very young son

31
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: and daughter, loving wife. And they killed him because they

32
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: did not like his political opinions. And we're going to

33
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: talk a lot about this and have a big conversation

34
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: with all of you. But I think at its essence,

35
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: this is where words are violence leads to I think

36
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: if you have to boil it down. The left has

37
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: accepted the idea that if you or I or any

38
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: of us say something that they do not like, that

39
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: violence is an appropriate response. And where this event, this

40
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: assassination took place, was in many ways perfectly reflective of

41
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: the impact that Charlie Kirk has had in his life.

42
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 1: On a college campus with an open mic, where anyone

43
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: on the campus could walk up and tell him why

44
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: he was wrong, and they could debate anything under the sun.

45
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: And he had done this, and he was so profoundly

46
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: successful at it that he had particularly moved the hearts

47
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: and minds of many young men. And Buck, I'll toss

48
00:02:58,520 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: it to you here in a second, but let me

49
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: tell you that my two oldest boys, their entire school

50
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: today in Nashville dressed up in coats and ties in

51
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: honor of Charlie Kirk. And you went to a school

52
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: where you had to dress up sometimes, let me tell you,

53
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,639
Speaker 1: these boys don't want to wear coats and ties. They

54
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: usually are always complaining. They're like, oh, it's a coat

55
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: and tie day, dad. The whole school wore coats and

56
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: ties in honor of Charlie Kirk. And I understand some

57
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: of you, maybe you're in your sixties, seventies, eighties, You

58
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: might not have been the target audience necessarily seeing this content.

59
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: But I would tell you, particularly if you have sons, grandsons,

60
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: young people in your households, they may be hurting quite

61
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: a bit and impacted by this far more than even

62
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: you might have been. So Buck, that it is just

63
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: a devastating yet sadly not unexpected to meet event.

64
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: It's a day of mourning. For the whole country because

65
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 2: of what happened within the last twenty four hours. And

66
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 2: also it is the remembrance of nine to eleven today,

67
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: so it's a particularly hard and emotional day. It was

68
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 2: going to be before this horrific event happened. And now

69
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: we sit here with you and we we grieve with

70
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: all of you because of what happened to Charlie and

71
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: which is just horrific beyond words. I we were when

72
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,919
Speaker 2: Clay saw me yesterday, I was I felt like I

73
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 2: was going to throw up. When we were I was

74
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: reading the initial text messages about it, and we were

75
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 2: on this we went into commercial break at the very

76
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: end of the show. Of course, I didn't want to

77
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 2: say anything at first, because this is there's some news

78
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: stories that you know, you just cannot get wrong, you can't,

79
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: and there's so much false information out there these days,

80
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: and so so we really wanted to be just bring

81
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 2: you the facts about this. And and then I was

82
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 2: on with Will Will Caine, who's a bit a friend

83
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 2: of mine now for I don't know fifteen almost fifteen

84
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 2: years and and Will texted me, he said, will you

85
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 2: please come on and talk about what's going on? And

86
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: I got some I got word when I was on

87
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 2: the air. It was very early on in the show, Clay,

88
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 2: but I had already been informed pretty reliably that Charlie

89
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 2: wasn't going to make it. But then I again, I,

90
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 2: you know, we're dealing with the not certain, you know.

91
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: You obviously I can't say that if I'm not one

92
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: hundred percent sure, but I'm thinking, and I'm you know,

93
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: it's just all the processing, the grief, the trauma that

94
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: people feel right now. We feel it with you. Clay

95
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 2: and I both knew and liked Charlie and had a

96
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 2: tremendous respect for what he had built and what he

97
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:52,119
Speaker 2: had done, and in this last election playing a critical role,

98
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: especially with getting that youth vote, to start to see reality.

99
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 3: And it's just one of those moments, Clay, where you

100
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 3: go to bed at night, to the degree you can

101
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 3: even sleep and it's still, you know, just doesn't feel

102
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 3: like this could have been what happened.

103
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: It's so horrific and it's so wrong and evil on

104
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: so many levels. I feel for Charlie's family, his wife,

105
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 2: his two small children, his mom, his dad, everybody, all

106
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 2: of his family is just you know, it's I don't know,

107
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 2: how it's possible for them to even begin to deal

108
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 2: with something like this. Charlie was a force of nature.

109
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 2: Charlie was doing really incredible work and returning in a

110
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 2: lot of ways. I think, Clay the conversation back to

111
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: some of our core and most important founding principles. All right,

112
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 2: let's talk about let's have this debate, let's have this

113
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 2: exchange of ideas. And you know, I know that there's

114
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: this sense that, well, we are in mourning, and so

115
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: should we get into the politics of this right away?

116
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 2: Charlie was assassinated. I mean, this was a terror act.

117
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: This was an assassination.

118
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: He was kilmed because of his politics. That's right, It's

119
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: impossible not to talk about politics.

120
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: That's exactly what I want to express. Thank you. Yes,

121
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 2: it's this wasn't a you know, it would be It

122
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 2: would be tragic and horrible if he had, you know,

123
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 2: died because of you know, an armed robber who shot

124
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 2: him or something like that. That would be horrible, That

125
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: would be a terrible crime. But this was done because

126
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 2: of who Charlie was. We all know that. In fact,

127
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: the FBI and will continue to I am hopeful that

128
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: there will be an arrest while we are on the

129
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: air today. That's not going to bring Charlie back. And

130
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: I know that this is not going to be able

131
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: to comfort the grieving right now in a meaningful way,

132
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 2: but it will at least be the justice system beginning

133
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: to do what it is possible for the justice system

134
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 2: to do to create some accountability. I think this should

135
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 2: be a death penalty case or the individual involved. I

136
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 2: am hopeful that they will get this person. There's reporting

137
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 2: that they have the weapon US was a both action

138
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: rifle that is confirmed by the FBI. Watched the press

139
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 2: conference this morning. It's two hundred yards perhaps two hundred

140
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 2: plus yards shot. So it's somebody who had an understanding

141
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 2: of how they had some practice. This is not someone

142
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: who bought a gun and then the next day went

143
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 2: just went on a shooting spree. This is somebody who

144
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 2: had some ability to shoot it with accuracy. They're saying

145
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 2: they think it's right now. The person the main personal

146
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 2: interest is college age. We'll see. I mean they've been

147
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 2: a lot of you have updated on what we just mentioned.

148
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 2: I just retweeted.

149
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: They have shared photos of the individual that from FBI

150
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 1: Salt Lake City Field Office. They have photos of the

151
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: man that they believe is responsible for the shooting. And

152
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: I just retweeted those college age as you were going to.

153
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 2: Write, so they have clear video college age. I will

154
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 2: note that there have been numerous photos of individuals of

155
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 2: interest shared previously, including FBI statements that we have a

156
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 2: This is this is where the investigative process can be

157
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 2: a little confusing or can create some confusion, especially in

158
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,719
Speaker 2: the online ecosystem. A person of interest does not mean

159
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 2: we have the person. It's exactly what it sounds like.

160
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: It's we think this is a person we definitely need

161
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 2: to speak to. There have been a couple of those

162
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 2: people in custody. Initially there was the there was some

163
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 2: crazy old guy who was saying, you know, and people

164
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 2: thought that he did not he was right there, he

165
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 2: had nothing to do with the shooting, or you know,

166
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 2: it clearly wasn't him. So there's been a lot of

167
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 2: iterations of this already, so Clay, yes, there's video out

168
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 2: there of this individual. The FBI has also confirmed that

169
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 2: there are things written on the rifle and I believe

170
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 2: on the shell casings from this morning's press conference, which

171
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 2: is going to be it's going to tell us what

172
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: the we know the motivation as politics. We know this

173
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 2: was an assassination, we might have a more direct sense,

174
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 2: a more precise sense of what this maniac. And I

175
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: agree with people say when you say maniac, that makes

176
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: it sound like a person not of their right mind.

177
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: It's really just demonic. It's a demonic act to do

178
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: this to Charlie, to do this to Charlie's family, to

179
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: do this to the American people. And one thing I

180
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 2: can say to all of you, Clay totally, I know

181
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 2: he co signs on this. I know that he is

182
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: of the same heart and mind and this as I am.

183
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,839
Speaker 2: If something like this had happened to a prominent democrat,

184
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 2: I also would have felt sick to my stomach. I

185
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 2: also would have said, what the heck is going on

186
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 2: in this country? This is disgusting, it is egregious, it

187
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 2: is inhuman. And yet Clay, last night I was on

188
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: I went on Blue Sky. Do you know about you?

189
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: Have you been on the Sky? I didn't go on,

190
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: but I have seen the postings. I mean, this is

191
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: not a fringe part of the left. There is malignant

192
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: glee over this assassination that is widely shared and disgusting.

193
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: But I don't want you thinking, oh, this is they're

194
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: going to try to say, oh, this is just an

195
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: aberrational individual. This is not reflective of ideas on the left.

196
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: There is a huge, toxic foundational core of the Democrat Party,

197
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 1: of the far left in this country that is celebrating

198
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: political violence and assassination of people. They don't like Blue Sky,

199
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: which I do not recommend any of you download or

200
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: go on, but I felt like I needed to in

201
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: advance of this show. And it's, honestly, it's so depraved.

202
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 2: It is a giant echo chamber of of people congratulating

203
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: each other and and cheering for what happened yesterday. It's

204
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 2: the most of Paul. I mean, I honestly just nightmare stuff.

205
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 2: You go, you look what is wrong with these people.

206
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 2: Charlie never advocated violence against anybody. Charlie uh never, you know,

207
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: raised a hand against anyone. His whole thing was let's talk,

208
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 2: let's talk, and and an assassin kills him. And and

209
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 2: we cannot think of this as something that occurred in

210
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 2: a vacuum clay or or you use the word aberand

211
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 2: or that you know that this is something It was

212
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 2: twice they tried to kill Donald Trump. These are all

213
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: people of the same ideology. Twice they tried to kill

214
00:12:54,920 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Now we've had people shooting up uh, we

215
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 2: had the shooting up the church in Minneapolis because of

216
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 2: radical trans ideology. We have the Nashville Manifesto hidden from

217
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 2: us because it was a radical trans terrister. But I

218
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 2: don't know what the stated ideology this person is other

219
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 2: than it's someone who hates Trump, hates Charlie, is of

220
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,439
Speaker 2: the left, and therefore Clay is part of this. This

221
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 2: just rotten. This this fetid nass psychosis that democrats think,

222
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: and they can say any You can't just run around

223
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: saying people are Nazis all the time because a lot

224
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 2: of people think that if you could go back in

225
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 2: time and kill Nazis, that would be a good thing.

226
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: I want to keep doing this.

227
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: I went off on this last night, and I was

228
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: on with our friend Sean Hannity in the evening. That

229
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: to me is the crux of all of this. There

230
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: are consequences when you say, hey, my political opponents are Nazis.

231
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is Adolph Hitler, they are fascists. They're going

232
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: to overthrow the government. There's not going to be in

233
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: action in twenty twenty eight, the guy who tried to

234
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 1: kill Trump and West Palm Beach said he was doing

235
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: it because he believed Trump was Hitler. If you truly believe,

236
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: and some of these crazy people do, if you truly

237
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: believe that Trump is Hitler, or that you're Hitler, or

238
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: that I'm Hitler, or that Charlie Kirk is Hitler, or

239
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: all of you out there who voted for Trump or Hitler,

240
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: then don't tell me right after you kill someone or

241
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: attempt to kill someone. We condemned political violence because it's

242
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: a lie. Political violence would be justified if we were

243
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: Adolph Hitler, and in their brain some of their crazy,

244
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: deluded followers are taking that charge and they believe it,

245
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: and they killed Charlie Kirk over it, I one hundred

246
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: billion percent believe, and they tried to kill Donald Trump

247
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: over it. And they would try to kill you, and

248
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: they would try to kill me, and they would try

249
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: to kill anyone that they believe is Hilarian because they

250
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 1: think they're a hero, and their delude did mental sphere.

251
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 2: If this Charlie was we knew Charlie, but he was

252
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 2: also on our on our team. He was doing what

253
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 2: we do, meaning Clay and I and so many others.

254
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 2: Do you know he was doing a podcast and a

255
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 2: radio show and he was spreading the truth, the truth

256
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 2: that so they killed him. He was killed. He an

257
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 2: assassin's bullet took his life because he was speaking the truth.

258
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: And to Clay's point, the same people cheering for this,

259
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 2: which is which is just monstrous. And I had to

260
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 2: know that it was true before I could tell you.

261
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 2: But that is happening a lot of people, a lot

262
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: of people on the left. The psychosis of these people

263
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 2: is it is really troubling for the future of this country.

264
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: While while people on the right and people voted for

265
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 2: Trump are grieving and thinking about Charlie's poor wife and

266
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 2: his kids, and people are crying, and I'm getting text

267
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: messages from people. I can't sleep at night. All I

268
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: can think about is Charlie's wife and his kids and

269
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 2: what have they done to us? And then there are

270
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 2: democrats who are acting we can't ignore it, and we

271
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 2: won't ignore it. Well, come back, we'll talk about this more,

272
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 2: and we want, we'd want to take a lot of

273
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,440

Speaker 2: A lot of us processing the grief, feeling like we've

302
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 2: woken up in a somewhat different and darker country today

303
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 2: because of this terrible act, and we wanted to speak

304
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 2: with our friend Bill O'Reilly. You know him. He's a

305

Speaker 2: Bill honestly just wanted to give you an opportunity. We

307
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,239
Speaker 2: were in shock yesterday. The news came down while we

308
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 2: were on the air at the very end of the show.

309
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 2: We didn't know, and we were all hoping that the

310
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: end result would be quite different. I wanted to You've

311
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 2: seen a lot in your years speaking the truth to

312
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 2: the people about what's going on, but this is a

313
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 2: particularly awful day, and I wanted to let you speak

314
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:20,719
Speaker 2: to everybody about how you're feeling.

315
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 5: Okay, well, I'm going to tell the audience on a

316
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 5: Klaient book show the absolute truth. This was evil, and

317
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 5: that word applies not only to the assassination of mister Kirk,

318
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 5: but what's happening in general in this country. So, as

319
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 5: you guys know, on Tuesday, my brand new book Confronting

320
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 5: Evil was released, and I woke up on Wednesday to

321
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 5: see Putin firing missiles at Poland in an unbelievably dangerous situation,

322
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 5: and then a few hours later, Charlie Kirk is shot

323
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 5: to death in Utah. I did a lot of media

324
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 5: between those things and now, and one interviewer said, your

325
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 5: book is haunting. The timing of your book is haunting

326
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 5: because I knew that we are entering a new age

327
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 5: of evil. And that's a point I made on News

328
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 5: Nation on television last night. Nineteen thirties, the world gravitated

329
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 5: toward evil in an enormous way that resulted in one

330
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 5: hundred million people being killed in World War Two. Now,

331
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 5: thanks to the United States, we defeated evil, and there

332
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 5: were others who helped us, but we were the primary motivator.

333
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 5: We're back now in an age where evil is on

334
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 5: the rise, and evil is what took Charlie Kirk's life.

335
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 5: So I find myself in a very interesting position of

336
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 5: having written a book. You know, we start these a

337
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 5: year in advance, predicting that bad things were going to occur,

338
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 5: and then see them occur the very week my book

339
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 5: is released. And the message in confronting evil is the

340
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 5: reason this is happening is because many Americans and all

341
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 5: people all over the world are turning away. So you

342
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 5: turn away from evil, you're going to get more of it.

343
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 5: It is easier for miscreants to do their horrible deeds

344
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 5: now than it ever before in American history. Do you

345
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 5: guys realize that it is easier to kill a fellow

346
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 5: human being in the United States than ever before because

347
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 5: of our permissive justice system and our progressive movement that

348
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 5: does not want to punish criminals and indeed encourages political violence.

349
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 5: Are members of the progressive movement, and they are centered

350
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 5: on MSNBC and the urban newspapers who are encouraging political violence.

351
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 5: We saw that yesterday, just one hour after Charlie Kirk

352
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 5: was shot, a man named Matthew Dowd went on MSNBC

353
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 5: and said, you know, I might have been Kurtzbault because

354
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 5: of his opinions. Now he was fired because MSNBC had

355
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 5: to fire him. But is anybody surprised? Is anybody surprised

356
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 5: that that was said on MSNBC? No, Because we'll play

357
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 5: Children of Hatred.

358
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: We'll play some of that audio for you guys out there,

359
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: because I do think it's important for you to be

360
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: aware of what was said and has been said. Bill

361
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: O'Reilly with us? Now, what advice? One of the things

362
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: obviously we're doing on the show today is a form

363
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: of collective healing and mourning because so many people have

364
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: been so deeply impacted, including us, including you. What should

365
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: we do because there's a lot of people out there

366
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: in your opinion, what is the constructive path going forward

367
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination.

368
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 5: It's an excellent question you're asking. So, mister Kirk's death

369
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 5: I think is going to lead to a renaissance of

370
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 5: a demand for justice. That's what I believe is going

371
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 5: to happen. But in order for that to happen, you

372
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 5: have to understand what is happening in this world right now.

373
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 5: And that's why I wrote Confront of Evil. Because most

374
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 5: people look away, they don't understand they don't know what happened.

375
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 5: Every one of the fifty and miscreants profiled in Evil

376
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 5: My book is relevant to today, as far back as

377
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 5: Caligula in the Roman Empire. It's all relevant to today.

378
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 5: But this is so shocking, so disconcerting, so sad, the

379
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 5: assassination of a thirty one year old just exercising its

380
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 5: freedom of speech, with two young children and a wife,

381
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,959
Speaker 5: that everybody is forced to pay attention. And now you

382
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 5: have to inform yourself, so you guys might know that.

383
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 5: Earlier this week, on the launch of Confronting Evil, I

384
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 5: made a very bold statement that the Progressives, of course attacked.

385
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 5: My statement was, and if you live in New York

386
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 5: City and you vote for Mandanni, you are committing an

387
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 5: act of evil. Doesn't mean you're an evil person. It

388
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 5: means that vote is evil because Mandanni has told you,

389
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 5: just like Hitler did in the nineteen twenties. I'm not

390
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 5: comparing Hitler to Mandanni, but it's the same kind of

391
00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 5: presentation of what they believe. Mandanni has. He does not

392
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 5: want to imprison criminals. He will let out as many

393
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 5: as he can. Well, that is going to lead to

394
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 5: more murder, more rape, more assault. He's not hiding it.

395
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 5: There's no two sides to it. He's said it. So

396
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 5: you are voting for that if you pull the lever

397
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 5: for the man. And I'm saying to the American public,

398
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 5: you have to stop that. You can't enable these people

399
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 5: in Charlotte with the judge let this guy out, knowing

400
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 5: the man was violent, knowing he had beat up his

401
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 5: own sister, let him out to do what he did

402
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 5: to that young woman on the bus. Every American has

403
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 5: got to say, no, we're not voting to that. Judge

404
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 5: should be removed, the fact that she isn't removed, I

405
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 5: think she will be. What are you doing in North Carolina?

406
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 5: What are you doing? Same thing in Chicago's South Side?

407
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 5: Twenty years twenty years of drug gangs mowing down poor

408
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 5: black citizens, and you object to a layer of protection

409
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 5: offered by the federal government to stop it or at

410
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 5: least mitigate it. You object to that. What the deuce

411
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 5: is going on? So Americans have got to get as

412
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 5: angry as you guys as me in order to make

413
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk's death a legacy play. So when people die

414
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 5: in this violent manner, if something good can emerge, that

415
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 5: prevents future deaths. That is very important.

416
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 2: Bill, Can I ask you the I don't think you're

417
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 2: on blue Sky. I'm I'm I felt obligated because I

418
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 2: was going to talk about this because I saw people saying,

419
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 2: you will not believe how much vile and just disgraceful

420
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 2: celebration was going on on this website, which is the

421
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: it's like the left wing lunatic version of X because

422
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 2: they they can't you know, control X anymore because of Elon.

423
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 2: So there's this whole place you just go and and Bill,

424
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 2: I was going through it last night. Do you think

425
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 2: Democrats and it was as bad as everybody was saying,

426
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 2: I can. I can tell everybody it was. It's horrific.

427
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 2: Do you think that there is any sense from some

428
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,719
Speaker 2: of the Democrats who matter, some of the Democrats who

429
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 2: have power within their party that there is something deeply

430
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 2: spiritually psychologically wrong with the base of their party? I mean,

431
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 2: do you get that sense that there's any accountability from

432
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 2: within their side? Or is this just going to be

433
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 2: a both sides ism? And and some people are going

434
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 2: to celebrated on their team and other people are going

435
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 2: to ignore it. How do you see that where we

436
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 2: are right now.

437
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 5: Only the mentally ill would celebrate the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

438
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 5: So these people who are doing that are mentally ill.

439
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 5: Whether they're danger to society, I don't know, but that's

440
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 5: the classification. One hundred percent of them fall into. There's

441
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 5: no excuse for that. Now. On the Democratic Party front,

442
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 5: you are seeing today a total retreat from Trumpet, Hitler,

443
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 5: from Maga or hubb human beings. You're seeing one hundred

444
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 5: percent retreat because if you are on the hill or

445
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 5: in a state office, you are not going to be

446
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 5: able to survive by peddling hate in the wake of

447
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk's assassination. You will not be able to survive it. Okay,

448
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 5: they all know that. I mean, the view today came

449
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 5: on and this is a very good example because everybody

450
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 5: knows what the view is, all right, And these are

451
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 5: radical left women. These are not thinkers. These are people

452
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 5: who are in business to make the other side suffer.

453
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 5: All of them were lamenting the death of Charlie Kirk.

454
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 5: Predictable Disney would not tolerate it, and they saw what

455
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 5: happened to Matthew Dowd at MSNBC. But was Charlie Kirk

456
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 5: Ever invited on the program. No, okay, No, we've talked.

457
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: We've talked about this, Bill Well. It's one of the

458
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: things that I think Charlie did so well, Bill, And

459
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 1: this is something that I spend an inordinate amount of

460
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,479
Speaker 1: time thinking about, is how do you cut through the

461
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 1: noise to make people hear arguments that are good and

462
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: sound that they otherwise would not have been exposed to.

463
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: Because this is one of the downsides in a huge way.

464
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: I think of the algorithmic culture or we have built.

465
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 1: They only feed you things that they know you already like.

466
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: So it puts people into the into the atmosphere, into

467
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: the zeitgeist, only four things that they've already experienced. This

468
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: is my old man take, Bill. I bet you'll agree

469
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: with this. The reason I love reading print newspapers is

470
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: because I come across stories that I otherwise would have

471
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: never seen, because the algorithm wouldn't have known that I

472
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: might be interested in that, And that hopefully opens my

473
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: mind and makes me better at analyzing arguments and stories

474
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 1: than I otherwise would be. How do you cut through

475
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: because your point there, they wouldn't have him on the

476
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: view because his arguments are too good and because some

477
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,959
Speaker 1: people sitting in that audience might have said, well, wait

478
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 1: a minute, I've heard that this Charlie Kirk guy's a Nazi.

479
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: I've heard he's hitler. But he's actually a pretty reasonable dad.

480
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: And some of his takes I might not agree with

481
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: them all. You shouldn't necessarily agree with everything anybody says entirely.

482
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: Some of his takes, they might have opened the window too,

483
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: and that's what was happening on social media, and that's

484
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: why they killed him.

485
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 5: The corporations Disney, Comcast, CBS are partially responsible for the

486
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 5: rise in hatred in this country. I'm not going to

487
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,719
Speaker 5: say the rise in evil, but the rise in hatred,

488
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 5: which feeds right into evil, and then evil feeds into violence.

489
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 5: The corporations to make money allowing people like Joy Behar

490
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 5: and the others to pedal hate. Yeah, okay, they make

491
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 5: money from Colbert, although they say they lose money. Why

492
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 5: was he on for so long? That's all he did?

493
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 5: Now that is going to cease for a while. And

494
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 5: my book is a perfect example of if you want

495
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 5: to inform yourself about evil, if you really want to

496
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 5: know what it is, do you read this book, and

497
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 5: then you will know, and then hopefully you yourself will

498
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 5: start to combat it in your own neighborhood, in your

499
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 5: own family, in your own state, because that's what it

500
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 5: will take. A shift in the culture, the American culture.

501
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 5: You know, I'm gonna I was invited by President Trump

502
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 5: to Yankee Stadium tonight. There's a reason that he invited me.

503
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 5: This isn't a social thing. I think it's about Putin,

504
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 5: but I'm not quite sure. But you guys know that

505
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 5: I have a pretty let's say, respectful relationship with mister Trump.

506
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 5: I know I'm going to be talking about this culture

507
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 5: situation because he brought it up yesterday in his over

508
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 5: office reaction to Charlie Kirk, and I'm going to hand

509
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 5: him the book. I'm going to say, Listen, you cannot

510
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 5: look away from evil. You got to deal with Putin,

511
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 5: You got to deal with him. Now, you got to

512
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 5: deal with the Jihadron already. Did you already know that evil?

513
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 5: All right? You neutralize them, and now you have to

514
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 5: turn your attention to American culture to call these people out.

515
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 5: Enough's enough. I've had it, you guys have had it,

516
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 5: and Charlie Kirk is dead because of it. An evil

517
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 5: person kills him and we are looking away from evil.

518
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 2: That's it, Bill, O'Reilly. Confronting evil is the book. Bill.

519
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 2: Appreciate you as always, sir, for the clarity and what

520
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 2: you stand for here now and always so thank you for.

521
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 6: Being with us, Thanks for having me.

522
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 5: Guys.

523
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 2: As we know, evil does exist in this world and

524
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 2: we have to do what we can to stand against

525
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 2: it in every way that we can. You want to

526
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 2: make sure that you also are able to defend yourself

527
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: when you can, how you can. And this is where

528
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 2: Saber comes into the picture. Sabers, pepper spray's, pepper gels,

529
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 2: projectile devices all made here in the un say. Look,

530
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 2: I was talking to my wife last night about home defense,

531
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 2: home protection, and we have Saber non lethal here. We

532
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 2: have a lot of lethal stuff here too, but we

533
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 2: have Saber non lethal because I can trust them. Carry's

534
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 2: comfortable with it. You have to take your defense into

535
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 2: your own hands. There's just evil out there. You know it,

536
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 2: We know it. All of us are aware. Saber is

537
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,560

00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 1: Senator Bill Haggerty with us right now, Senator, I know

573
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: you pretty well. I know you've got I think four kids,

574
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: and I bet your sons in particular have been influenced

575
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: and impacted in a significant way by Charlie Kirk like

576
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: mine have. In fact, our kids have gone to one

577
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: of the same schools. I don't know if you know this, Senator,

578
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: but the kids at our kids Mutual School all wore

579
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 1: jackets and ties, which they are not fond of doing

580
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 1: in honor of Charlie Kirk today basically the entire school.

581
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 1: What was your reaction when you saw and heard what

582
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: had happened? What should happen next?

583
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 6: Well, I've known Charlie for years. I wasn't close with

584
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 6: Charlie to the extent you never took a vacation or

585
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 6: something like that. We see one another in a room,

586
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 6: we'd always make our way across to shake hands. How

587
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 6: are you doing? I was thinking the last time I

588
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 6: saw Charlie was at man A Lago too long ago.

589
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 6: But it just, you know, as a parent, it just

590
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 6: strikes deep, not only the influence on my sons, And

591
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 6: I tell you my sons share something with Charlie as well.

592
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 6: My boys are both Eagle Scouts as am I so

593
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 6: was Charlie was an Eagle Scout, and Charlie is a

594
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 6: little bit older than my sons. But you know, I

595
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 6: have a very parental view of young people like Charlie

596
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 6: who are willing to enter the fray to be the

597
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 6: man in the arena, so to speak, and just to

598
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 6: step up and engage and debate and basically bring out

599
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 6: what's best in America. That's the freedom of speech that

600
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 6: we have that no other nation enjoys, and to see

601
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 6: that curtailed in such a tragic way as heartbreaking to me.

602
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 2: It's just heartbreaking, claim Senator Haggerty. I appreciate you being here,

603
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 2: and it's a tough day for the whole country. We

604
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 2: were prepared to have a remembrance of nine to eleven

605
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 2: and then this terrible incident became something that it's just

606
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 2: so many of us couldn't sleep well last night thinking

607
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 2: about it, the grief that has spread across the country.

608
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 2: What would you say to everybody right now, especially to

609
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 2: a lot of I mean, you have young boys yourself,

610
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 2: To the parents out there who are worried about how

611
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 2: this is going to affect their sons and daughters who

612
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 2: looked up.

613
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 6: To Charlie, Well, I don't think this should impact the

614
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,359
Speaker 6: degree to which they look up to Charlie at all.

615
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 6: In fact, I think this is going to raise the

616
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 6: respect for Charlie and raise the attention level in a

617
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,760
Speaker 6: way that is well deserved but sad at the same time.

618
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 6: Charlie certainly didn't aim to be a martyr, but he

619
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 6: has been pushing for a cause. It's been vitally important

620
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 6: to him. I think it's vitally important to our nation,

621
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 6: and his willingness to engage, to debate and to clarify

622
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 6: for young people so they could actually see the truth

623
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 6: and cut through the noise that you spend time, clay Buck.

624
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 6: You both spend time cutting through the noise in the

625
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 6: mainstream media, the obsuscation that takes place, the politicization that

626
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 6: takes play place in the media, the silencing that takes place.

627
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 6: And Charlie was a beacon when it comes to standing

628
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 6: up and bringing the truth to light and enabling a

629
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,879
Speaker 6: real discussion about issues rather than just spin spin spin

630
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 6: all day long. Charlie was willing to engage, He was

631
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 6: willing to listen to different opinions, He was willing to

632
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 6: argue in public in a respectful manner. This is the

633
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 6: way our forefathers are founding fathers designed this nation to

634
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 6: respect and support just that type of interaction. And what

635
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 6: happened was an act of cowardice, first and foremost, only

636
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 6: a total coward of do something like that, and someone

637
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 6: with such a narrow mind that they think the only

638
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 6: way to address a difference of opinion is to shut

639
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 6: the other side down. It's a manifestation of what's gone

640
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 6: so deeply wrong with the whole cancel culture here in

641
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 6: America and anyone. And I'm sad to say it, but

642
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 6: there are people that are actually trying to justify this

643
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 6: or in some way even celebrating this. That dehumanizes not

644
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 6: only those of us that care that have heavy feelings,

645
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 6: it dehumanizes the person that could possibly think that way.

646
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 6: And we need to get back to the basics here

647
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 6: in America. We need to get back to fundamental respect.

648
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 6: And again, it's heartbreaking to see what's happening, what has happened,

649
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 6: I should say, with Charlie's loss, But I hope that

650
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 6: it will be a chance for America to wake up,

651
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 6: for our young people to wake up and say, this

652
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 6: young man stood for something quite important, and I think

653
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 6: he's going to live on in our memories for years

654
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 6: and decades to come.

655
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 1: We're talking to Center Bill Haggerty of Tennessee. This is

656
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: happening all over the country, sadly, but it happened where

657
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: you and I happen to both live in Tennessee. A

658
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 1: Middle Tennessee State University dean. I know there's a lot

659
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:56,240
Speaker 1: of different deans. A student affiliated dean celebrated the death

660
00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: of Charlie Kirk MTSU. The college has terminated that person

661
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,280
Speaker 1: and they are no longer employed by the university. But sadly,

662
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 1: Buck and I have been talking about this, Senator. It's

663
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: one thing to disagree politically, it's entirely a different thing

664
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: when someone is assassinated. To celebrate the assassination, which we

665
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: are seeing take place all over the place, including sometimes

666
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 1: at public universities. How do we restore the soul of

667
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: the nation. It's a big question. But I'm incredibly troubled.

668
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: Buck is too. It's indefensible the reactions we are seeing.

669
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 1: What should happen? What can we do to restore that soul?

670
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:43,760
Speaker 6: Well, the particular incident that you're describing was extraordinarily disturbing

671
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 6: to be and I know it was to you and

672
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 6: everybody else. Middle Tennessee State University is by population by

673
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 6: student population, the largest university in the state of Tennessee,

674
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 6: a population state with over seven million people. MTSU is

675
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 6: our largest, our largest college. And to have the I

676
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 6: think it was an assistant dean of student services or

677
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 6: being students make a statement that in any way, in

678
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 6: any manner, could be interpreted as celebrating it as showing

679
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 6: zero sympathy, I think is a direct quote from what

680
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 6: I saw and the person's communicate. What a terrible message

681
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 6: does that send the students that you're supposed to be

682
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 6: there to support and teach. If that's the type of

683
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 6: indoctrination and teaching that's going on, something is sadly failed.

684
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 6: And I applaud doctor Sidney McPhee and the leadership there

685
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 6: at MTSU for dealing with this right away. I'm friends

686
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 6: with most of the members of the board of the

687
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 6: board of directors of that university. I know that they

688
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 6: would abhor this sort of thing and these rogue faculty members,

689
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 6: and there's no other way to describe it. People that

690
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 6: are in a position of responsibility and trust with respect

691
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:54,880
Speaker 6: to our young people, particularly the audience that Charlie was

692
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 6: so good at reaching and touching. For someone like that

693
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 6: to step up and say what they did is apparent,

694
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 6: and I'm thankful that MTSU acted swiftly to discharge them.

695
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 2: Senator Haggerty, we appreciate you making the time for sir.

696
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 2: God bless you and your family and children.

697
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 6: Thanks for being here, God, as I always thank you

698
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 6: for having me.

699
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,879
Speaker 1: That's Center. Bill Haggerty does great work for the state

700
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 1: of Tennessee. We'll come back. There were reports that there

701
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 1: might be a press conference, just to update some of you.

702
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 1: It now appears Buck there may not be a press conference,

703
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 1: So we're unsure exactly what is going to happen, but

704
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,319
Speaker 1: obviously we're going to continue to update you, and if

705
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:42,879
Speaker 1: it doesn't happen, then we will certainly. Sean Hannity, I'm

706
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,799
Speaker 1: sure we'll be following this story on many of the

707
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 1: different stations that you are all listening on right now

708
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 1: with all of us. But I want to tell you,

709
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 1: having your identity stolen online's a real thing. Happens to

710
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: tens of millions of Americans every year. Happens most often

711
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 1: when it's iber hacker breaks into a company's database and

712
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 1: steals customer data that could be names, addresses, credit cards, birthdays,

713
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 1: even SOCID security numbers. It's important to understand how cyber

714
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 1: crime and identity theft are affecting our lives. You want

715
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,640

731
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay. Travis buck Sexton Show ALI producer

732
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: shared a email with us, and I thought that I

733
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 1: would share this with all of you. Clay and Buck.

734
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: I'm reaching out because my son, I won't say his name,

735
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: but know that we are talking to you, helped start

736
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 1: a Cape cod chapter of Turning Point USA a couple

737
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: of years ago. He's home today, somewhat broken, trying to

738
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:36,440
Speaker 1: process what happened. He's only twenty years old. My son's

739
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 1: been inspired by Charlie Kirk since he was a little kid.

740
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: He now works for Leadership Institute spends endless hours recruiting

741
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: students at colleges all over the Northeast. I want to

742
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 1: see if there's a way that you could possibly speak

743
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,839
Speaker 1: to him today. I think good therapy for him would

744
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: be to speak about Charlie Kirk. He's alone in his

745
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: room right now, trying to think of a way to

746
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:00,799
Speaker 1: help him get inspired, lift his spirits. Anything you can

747
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 1: do would be greatly appreciated. So I don't want to

748
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: call this kid. I don't want to put him on

749
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: the talk to millions of people. But Buck, I think

750
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: you and I they can clip this and they can

751
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 1: share with him, and you're hearing my voice because I

752
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 1: think there's so many young kids out there, so many

753
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: young boys that are lost, and Charlie was for them

754
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 1: a voice to help provide salvation to them. That's why

755
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 1: he connected so well with young men, young boys. And

756
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: I know in my own household that just from talking

757
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:43,760
Speaker 1: to my kids about the impact. My ninth grade son said, Dad,

758
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 1: we went in the locker room and the whole football

759
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: team was just crushed. My son, one of my sons.

760
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 1: Last night when I was talking to him, said, do

761
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: you think Charlie's cankids are going to grow up and

762
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: watch that video of him getting shot one day? What

763
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,879
Speaker 1: do you say to that? And so what I would say,

764
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:17,239
Speaker 1: what I told them, and what I would tell that

765
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 1: kid is you have to be tougher than you think

766
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 1: you are, if you have to be braver than you

767
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: think you are. And you are both, and so are

768
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 1: all of us. And I think for young kids in particular,

769
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 1: you may not have experienced. And I know for you, Buck,

770
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 1: I could see it in your eyes because this is

771
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 1: the first time something like this has happened since you

772
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: became a dad. Yeah, and it changes you in a

773
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 1: big way. But what I would say is everybody has

774
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:16,839
Speaker 1: to lift up and be braver and more courageous and

775
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: stronger than you think you are. And I think when

776
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:24,760
Speaker 1: you're a young kid, young boy, young girl, you feel

777
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: like you're fragile, and you aren't. You are so much

778
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 1: stronger than you think you are. And one of the

779
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 1: things with this whole toxic empathy universe is we're telling kids, hey,

780
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:44,839
Speaker 1: you're weak, words hurt you. You need to be protected

781
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 1: from the real world. That guy who killed Charlie. He

782
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:56,359
Speaker 1: was weak. There was an open mic right there. If

783
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 1: you have the best argument in the world. Charlie was

784
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:03,399
Speaker 1: providing you a voice to step right up and tell

785
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: him why he was wrong. And instead of that, from

786
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: two hundred yards away, you took his life. For your

787
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 1: young son, for so many young people out there, and

788
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 1: for a lot of us that are older too, we

789
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 1: have to be braver. We have to be more courageous.

790
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 1: We have to be tougher than we even think we are.

791
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: And you cannot let people who want to silence you win, ever,

792
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:33,279
Speaker 1: that's what they want. You have to stand up stronger

793
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 1: than you've ever been before, all of us do, Your son,

794
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,799
Speaker 1: my son's, everybody's sons and daughters, and all of us

795
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,719
Speaker 1: two have to be the rocks to allow them to

796
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:44,400
Speaker 1: stand up and be strong.

797
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 2: Amen, Clay, Let's take let's take calls in the net,

798
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 2: let's come back, Let's hear from all of you. Our

799
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 2: lines are open. We want, we want to speak with

800
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 2: all of you, so please call in and if you're

801
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 2: getting a busy, please wait your turn. If you want

802
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:00,720
Speaker 2: to speak to us and everyone all around the country

803
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 2: about what happened, we'll get into it in a few

804
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 2: minutes here. Thank you for being with us. All right,

805
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 2: we're closing up shops today here on Clay and Buck. Look,

806
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 2: it was a difficult show for all of us. I'm

807
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,160
Speaker 2: sure it was difficult for you to be with us

808
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,840
Speaker 2: and thinking about these things. But we're honored and appreciated

809
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 2: that you were with us. And it is a very

810
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 2: special thing that Clay and I get to do with

811
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 2: all of you every day. And we you know, we

812
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 2: are going to do our best to continue with the

813
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,880
Speaker 2: ethos and the mission of this show which aligned in

814
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,359
Speaker 2: lockstep with what Charlie wanted for this country and with

815
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 2: what he stood for. We have that interview where he

816
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 2: joined our show because of course he was a friend

817
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 2: of the show, friend of ours. He came on. I

818
00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 2: was on vacation, but he was able to speak to

819
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,720
Speaker 2: Clay about a whole range of things, something very important

820
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 2: to Charlie. And as we see critical now in America

821
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 2: to have our focus is how we are raising and

822
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:06,440
Speaker 2: how we are encouraging and building young men up for

823
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 2: the next to be the next generation of male leadership

824
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:14,759
Speaker 2: in this critical country of ours is republic that is

825
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 2: the last best guaranteur of freedom for all of us.

826
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 2: Here is cut nine, Charlie. We're just gonna let you

827
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 2: listen to what he had to say about it.

828
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,919
Speaker 1: Play it so you speaking of college football, a lot

829
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 1: of young men are college football fans. The campaign that

830
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: was just run, if you had to point to one

831
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,840
Speaker 1: group that moved most massively from plus fourteen for Biden

832
00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 1: to plus fourteen for Trump according to at least one

833
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:42,359
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal poll that I saw. Why did young men,

834
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:44,439
Speaker 1: in your mind, people that you have been reaching out

835
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,760
Speaker 1: to aggressively move so substantially in this election.

836
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 9: I'd say, I think it's because they want to be

837
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 9: part of a political movement that doesn't hate them. Over

838
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 9: the last couple of years, you started to see the

839
00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:58,720
Speaker 9: woke stuff that was really incubated in twenty twenty start

840
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 9: to germinate and metastic size and grow into all of

841
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 9: our institutions. And one of the core orthodoxies of woke

842
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 9: is what we call DEI is really a hatred of

843
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 9: Christian white straight men. And I hate to be that

844
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 9: blunt about it, but it is. It's the orthodox of it,

845
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 9: the orthodoxy of it, and young men, why am I

846
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 9: being part of this?

847
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:20,560
Speaker 6: Exactly?

848
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 9: I want to be part of a political movement that

849
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 9: at least acknowledges that there is men and women and

850
00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 9: says that it's a good thing to be a man,

851
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 9: and that masculinity is not inherently toxic. And I think

852
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 9: top of that though, go ahead, police.

853
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 1: Yeah no, I was just going to say, I think

854
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 1: what's interesting and you may have been going there too,

855
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,840
Speaker 1: is it starts with white men are the problem. But

856
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 1: the problem with that is eventually it has to grow

857
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,399
Speaker 1: and I think black guys, Hispanic guys, Asian guys looking

858
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 1: around like, hey, I don't think masculinity is toxic. I

859
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 1: think that men and women are different. And suddenly you

860
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,280
Speaker 1: can't say that and be a Democrat correct.

861
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,319
Speaker 9: And then it even grows deeper into this kind of

862
00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 9: tyranny of political correctness, which at its is like toxic femininity,

863
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 9: which is that we're going to police all of your speech.

864
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 9: The left has become a bunch of skolds, of hall

865
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:10,719
Speaker 9: monitors of people that do not believe in free expression

866
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 9: or dialogue or discourse. And you know what we've seen

867
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 9: in the last couple of years is now a backlash

868
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,479
Speaker 9: of that where if there is anyone in the quote

869
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,799
Speaker 9: unquote manisphere, you know you say, Joe Rogan, the Theo Vaughn.

870
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,200
Speaker 9: It's not that they're conservative, but they're inherently anti left,

871
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,560
Speaker 9: that they're against the kind of new left wing dogma

872
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:37,560
Speaker 9: and doctrine that believes that there needs to be speech

873
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:42,279
Speaker 9: codes that you know, this trans nonsense. And so young

874
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 9: men in particular kind of led the rebellion towards a

875
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:50,760
Speaker 9: political movement, one rooted in common sense patriotism, liberty and freedom.

876
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:57,640
Speaker 2: Clay I spoke at one of Charlie's very first events

877
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 2: returning point. I don't know what number it was in

878
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 2: the progression, but it was twenty. I think it was

879
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:11,760
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, so maybe early twenty sixteen. And I remember something.

880
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 2: He came up with me backstage, and this is our

881
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:17,279
Speaker 2: first ever meeting, and I didn't know anything about him.

882
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 2: All I knew was that he had reached out and

883
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,440
Speaker 2: he said, I love your stuff, would you please come?

884
00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,399
Speaker 2: And Tommy Laren was there and I was there, and

885
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 2: he said I love your stuff, would you please come

886
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 2: and speak? And I said sure, you know I was

887
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 2: I happened if it was in Dallas. I happened to

888
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 2: be in Dallas, and he saw me backstage and he

889
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:38,759
Speaker 2: had that already. Of course that Charlie energy.

890
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:39,120
Speaker 6: And just.

891
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,360
Speaker 2: You know, this guy was just pulling it all together.

892
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 2: And he came up to me and he said, you know,

893
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 2: I listened to you fill in for Rush. Because this

894
00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 2: is after I'd filled in for Rush a few times

895
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 2: as a guest host. You know, Charlie filled in on

896
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:55,399
Speaker 2: my program years later when I was doing six to nine.

897
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,640
Speaker 2: So now Jesse Kelly slot so Charlie filled in for me.

898
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 2: But he said, I listened to you for Rush, and

899
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 2: he said, you know, he was very generous. He said,

900
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 2: you know, you did such a great job and and

901
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 2: that's and basically was like, that's just so cool, Like

902
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:10,879
Speaker 2: he was just telling that's just so cool. He filled

903
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 2: in for Rush, and he said, you know how I

904
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 2: learned conservatism. He said the one thing that he absolutely

905
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 2: never missed, and this is I think for a lot

906
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,920
Speaker 2: of you bring things full circle. He said, I couldn't

907
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 2: always listen to all three hours, but I listened to

908
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 2: Rush Limbaugh's opening monologue every day, starting in you know,

909
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 2: junior high. Every day, he said, he would listen to Rush.

910
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 2: So this is so much of Charlie and what he believed.

911
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 2: It makes sense and you understand where it was coming from.

912
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,960
Speaker 1: Well, I think that's that's a really great analogy because

913
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,879
Speaker 1: what it represents is all of us have a relatively

914
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:55,800
Speaker 1: short amount of time on this planet right We don't

915
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 1: know when it's going to come to an end for

916
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 1: any of us. And I think Charlie got that. He's

917
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 1: only thirty one, and Rush certainly got that. There are

918
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,760
Speaker 1: tons of you listening to us right now who started

919
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,240
Speaker 1: listening because mom and dad, Grandma and grandpa were driving

920
00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:14,240
Speaker 1: you around the car. The Rush Baby universe is large,

921
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 1: and we've now been doing this show for over four years,

922
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 1: which means you could have gone from freshman year of

923
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:24,359
Speaker 1: high school to being a senior now, and we're gonna

924
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 1: be doing it for hopefully years and years to come.

925
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:33,400
Speaker 1: But you win by winning the culture. And that's what

926
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,719
Speaker 1: I would come back to with Charlie. You have to

927
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 1: go to people where they are, and he went to

928
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 1: them on a college campus and he said, here's an

929
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: open mic, let's debate, and the very foundation of America

930
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 1: is the best argument should win. And Charlie had the

931
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: best arguments, and he won, and he won big, and

932
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: the culture has shifted around him, and that's why they

933
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 1: killed him. And what we cannot allow to happen, not you, me,

934
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,240
Speaker 1: not all of you out there. What we cannot allow

935
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:14,760
Speaker 1: to happen is for his victories to go in vain.

936
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 1: We have to pick up the mantle and we have

937
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,800
Speaker 1: to advance it further and further.

938
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,120
Speaker 2: And I know all of you are going to do that.

939
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:25,280
Speaker 2: Just say Clay and I make you all a solemn promise.

940
00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,800
Speaker 2: We will continue what we do here. We will continue

941
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 2: to honor what Charlie stood for in his memory, and

942
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:32,839
Speaker 2: we will stay in this fight because it's a fight

943
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 2: to make this the best country for all of us

944
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 2: that we possibly can, and to tell you all the truth.

945
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 2: And you all play a role in it, play the

946
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,319
Speaker 2: critical part in it every day because without you, we

947
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 2: wouldn't be able to have any impact. So thank you

948
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 2: all for listening. God bless you. We're praying for all

949
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:52,399
Speaker 2: of you. We're praying for Charlie, Charlie's family. We love

950
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 2: you all, and please go hug and tell your family

951
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 2: you love them today
