Speaker 1: biggest concern we should all have is the safety of

22
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,680

00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: supporters after last night's riley in Florida as the reason

24
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: for this rise in concern. We'll talk about what's really

00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,840

27
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,119

00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: Just to give you a sense as to what's happening

33
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: right now. You can hear there is a forest of

34
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: foods and other chance of this trunk crowd here in Tampa, Florea.

35
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: They're saying things like CNN sucks, go home and fake news. Well,

36
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 1: obviously all of those things are false. We're staying right here.

37
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: We're to do our John. They're not all rally to

38
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: all the reviewers here tonight. But I think Washington is

39
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: so anti Trump and the liberal media is so anti Trump.

40
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: They don't understand what's happening out there. Let's just give

41
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: you one example, sanctuary cities. Let let's let's let's cause

42
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: for a second. Welcome to Bucks exit show. Everybody. Uh

43
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: so you had you had a cost to last night

44
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: there at the route. Look, I I have I have

45
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: so many thoughts on this. Well, I think it's funny

46
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: that people are chanting CNN sucks and go home CNN

47
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: and CNN is fake news. And their response to this

48
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: is that those things are not true. It's like, well,

49
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: it's really a matter of opinion, dude. Um, But what

50
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: ended up happening here is that there was a lot

51
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: of a lot of focus on this last nd the rally.

52
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: Bubbaly Trump did a phenomenal job at the rally last night.

53
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: He's incredible as a live performer. He is a force

54
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: of nature. He is unlike any other unscripted people say, oh,

55
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:26,079
Speaker 1: bood Obama. I'm like Obama could give a compelling left

56
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: wing Democrats speech with a prompter that he had practiced

57
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: beforehand on and somebody else writing it for him. But yes,

58
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: he could deliver that effectively. All right, I'm not gonna

59
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: say whereas Hillary can't even do that. Ah yeah, I'm

60
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: really got a prompter it's just horrible, right, it hurts

61
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: your ears. You don't want to see it. It's not good.

62
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: Trump just gets up there and he just lets it

63
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: ripped for an hour. It's it's incredible that this guy

64
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: does this and he's he's making all these points and

65
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: he's really getting to get the crowd that energest. You know,

66
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: I'll say this, I do it a lot of different

67
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: kinds of media. There's a different energy when you're in

68
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: front of a live crowd like that, especially a really

69
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: big crowd. I don't care if you used to speaking

70
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: to millions of people on TV or millions of people

71
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: on radio. It's a little bit, there's a little it's

72
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: a little more intimidating, isn't the right word, But the

73
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: energy is different. You gotta bring your a game. You know,

74
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 1: there's there's no hiding whateveryone's in the room with you.

75
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: You know, you can't you can't cut the commercial break

76
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: what everyone's in the room with you, or in the

77
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: in the arena with you, as the case may be.

78
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: But here's what you get. You know that this this

79
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: martyrdom complex that CNN and much of the mainstream media

80
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: have was on display last night and You're getting a

81
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: lot of this in the follow up to it, uh,

82
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: And I want to break this down for you because

83
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: it is symbolic or really emblematic of what they still

84
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: don't get. Let me tell you the real situation here. Okay,

85
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: Jim Acosta, by the way, I don't know him really

86
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: from sing and I never met him. I just know

87
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: his work, so I don't know him personally, so none

88
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: of this is personal. There's some people see Ann that

89
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: I know personally, and I tend I I avoid uh

90
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: unfairly criticizing anyone, but I particularly look. I'll tell you

91
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: if I'm friends with somebody, I'll say I'm friends with

92
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: that person, and I generally won't go after them, even professionally,

93
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: because I feel weird doing that. And I think that's

94
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: a tough spot for some some people in the commentary

95
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: business to be in sometimes. But at least I'm honest

96
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: with you about it. There's only few people see Ann

97
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: feel that way about. They're a handful. Uh. I don't

98
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: know what cost him. I do know that he's become

99
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: a almost household name for people that watch TV news,

100
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: if not a household name because of the Trump opposition,

101
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: he is better known wealthier, and it's gonna be able

102
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: to I know that you don't want to hear this,

103
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: but write his own ticket after this administration, go wherever

104
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 1: he wants to go, or get his own show at

105
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: CNN because of Trump. Now, are we really supposed to

106
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: feel badly for him? I'm con used. Oh it's so hard,

107
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: and they really just Oh, it's just this victimology complex

108
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: that the left has. It stretches beyond identity politics. It

109
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: stretches beyond you know, the way that they pander to

110
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: different identity groups. Now it's the media has a victimology complex.

111
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: I mean, the media thinks that they are being victimized

112
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,119
Speaker 1: by Trump. I keep having to point this out too,

113
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: whenever they say something like, oh it's authoritarian. Look at

114
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 1: out trumpet so authoritarian. I want to say. Authoritarians have

115
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: the whole media in their pocket. Authoritarians don't have the

116
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: entire media against them trying to end them and take

117
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: down their regime or take down their government. Obama was

118
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: much scarier for press freedom than Trump was. That's what

119
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: they don't understand. Obama had the press doing his bidding,

120
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: had the press asking questions when he When Obama would

121
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: step out of line when Obama's Justice Department put a

122
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: Fox News reporter in a in an espion indictment as

123
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: a as a co conspirator, didn't charge him, but put

124
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: him in the indictment. Yeah, the press corps, they made

125
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,559
Speaker 1: some noises about it. There's some of them who are like, well,

126
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: this is troubling. They're calling Trump hitler. I mean, they're

127
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: saying that he's running concentration camps at the border. They're

128
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: saying that he's a he's a fascist. You want to

129
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: talk fascism. Obama's Justice Apartment was actually talking about journalists

130
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: being criminals for doing their jobs. Use the ESPIONA Espionage

131
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: Act more than every other administration combined. Yeah, they covered it,

132
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: but they covered it. Was like, well, let's for us

133
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: troubling questions about press freedom. I'm not sure Obama's the

134
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: best messenger for this press freedom all with trumpets. He's

135
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: a fascist, he's a Nazi, he's hitler. And some of

136
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: us understand the difference here, folks, people listening to the

137
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: show understand the difference. But you know CNN that they

138
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: forget all this stuff now and we're supposed to buy

139
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: that that Trump is some terrible enemy of the press,

140
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: because he says that the press of the enemy of

141
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: the people. He says that large. I mean, look, he's

142
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: he's not joking and then it's haha, but he's he's

143
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: trolling on a little bit. He's goading them. Oh and

144
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: Trump gives all kinds of access to the press. He'll

145
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: sit down for interviews with you know, Maggie Haymerman of

146
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: the Times and these other people who all hate his guts.

147
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: I'll talk to them. Unlike, let's be very clear about this.

148
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: Trump has never, unlike Obama, really thought seriously about and

149
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: taking actions that made people believe that he would prosecute

150
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 1: journalists for doing their jobs. Obama, that was a real thing.

151
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 1: You know, with Obama, that was something you had to

152
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,439
Speaker 1: really consider because he had the whole press in his pocket.

153
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: So there wasn't going to be this real rallying around.

154
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: Oh that's right. Fox News, which was singled out, it

155
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: singled out in that d o J indictment under Eric

156
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: Holder's d J and also singled out by Obama for

157
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: ridicule and contempt on a regular basis. That's right. Now,

158
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 1: CNN is getting a little what they used to, you know,

159
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: dish out to the other side or seeing how the

160
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 1: other side had to take it, and they're all where,

161
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: pull over the we ambulance please. And then there's a

162
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: there's a bigger issue here too, which is you had

163
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: these uh, you know, these journalists last night who recovering

164
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: by the way, there's their security there, they're all on camera.

165
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: Nobody hit anyone, Nobody threatened anyone that I that were

166
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: aware of, like threatened actually harm anybody, you know, physical violence.

167
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: Nothing happened. That's not the case. And we talk about

168
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: what happens to conservatives and Trump supporters, that's not the

169
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: case when you look at I mean that CNN. Uh.

170
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: And you know, I know Dana pretty well from from

171
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 1: working with her at the Blaze. Um. You know, I

172
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: don't know her really socially, but I know her professionally.

173
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: And I mean with what happened to her at that

174
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: CNN gun rally thing was was an abomination. You know,

175
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: people were menacing her as a woman who walked in there.

176
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: And and that audience has been has been fed this

177
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: line by CNN, by the analysts they put on TV,

178
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: by the so called anchors were really just pundits without

179
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: the the goal to really fight and stand up for

180
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: their positions. Right there was hide behind this little facade.

181
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 1: It's cowardly. That's the problem with the CNN approach to

182
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: this stuff. It's cowardly. If you want to be a pundit,

183
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 1: be a pundit, if you want to stand for if

184
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,719
Speaker 1: you want to be an activist, if you want to

185
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: stand for issues, If your reason for getting out of

186
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: bed every morning is you hate Trump, at least be

187
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: a man about it, or be a strong woman about

188
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: it whatever, you know what I mean, at least be

189
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: honest about what's all. You know, We're just I'm just

190
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: gonna sit here and tweet snarky stuff to undermine Trump

191
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 1: all day. And I'm just gonna do one story after

192
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: another on Michael of Nadio and Stormy Daniels and Russia, Russia, Russia.

193
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: But but oh no, I don't. I don't. I don't

194
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 1: want to. I'm not I'm not partisan. I don't want

195
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: to have to defend anything. Oh don't play it on,

196
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: back off, don't be mean to me. It really is cowardly.

197
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: I mean, they could start to say at the cowardly

198
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 1: News network. I wrote this piece for The Hiller in

199
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: the week you know, I does not make me popular

200
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: among the swamp set. I'm like this notion that journalists

201
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: are under threat in the era of Trump. It's just garbage.

202
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: It's preposterous. They were so desperate to make that terrible

203
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: shooting in Baltimore about Trump, But that guy was a

204
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: deranged maniac who had been coming after them for years

205
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: before Trump was even in office. Nothing new with anything.

206
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: And that and one other incident, which was if something

207
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: you remember, if you forget exactly what it was. The

208
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: guy felt like he had been passed over. It was

209
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: essentially a workplace it was workplace violence. But the guy

210
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: televised it. It It was a journalist to forget in North

211
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: or South Carolina. I think, um that was a few

212
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: years ago. Those are the only incidents of more than

213
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 1: one person being harmed doing journalism in this country in

214
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: the last thirty years. A total of eleven journalists have

215
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: been killed in the United States for doing their jobs

216
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 1: since nine team doing their jobs for any reason. By

217
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: the way, so then, and you know that this includes

218
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: writing stories about somebody that don't like it includes being

219
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: in a dangerous neighborhood. Eleven journalists have been killed in

220
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 1: this country. Now, I wish the number were zero, but

221
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: let's not all sit around and do this. Woe as me.

222
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: Journalists in America under threat? You know who was under threat?

223
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: And this is one I want to spend some real

224
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: time digging into this because I think that I think

225
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: this is I think this is important. I think it

226
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: matters because the other side doesn't get that we're not

227
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: giving in on this one. We're not playing their game anymore.

228
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: You know who was under threat under the Obama administration.

229
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: Cops And you can say, oh, buck, but no, that's

230
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: not that's not fair. And well, no, the Black Lives

231
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: Matter movement, which President Obama was supportive of, which is

232
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: Department of Justice was supportive of, which the media was

233
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: fanning the flames of all the time. And I went

234
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: to those rallies to cover them as a journalist I

235
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: saw what was going on there, or to cover them

236
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: as a pun it whatever I heard the chance. You know,

237
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: I remember pigs in a blanket, fry him like bacon,

238
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: and I remember what we want dead cops when we

239
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: want it now. I remember all that, and the media was, oh,

240
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: you know, man, racism is real, so you know, we

241
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: can't really you can't really call this out and police

242
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: officers were murdered because of that rhetoric that led. There

243
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: was a direct connection between a widespread narrative that the

244
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: media really created with the help of activists, and the

245
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: Obama administration and the White House. Obama was there. You know,

246
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: if I had a son, he would he would have

247
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: looked like Trayvon. You know, Obama did not hold back.

248
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: You know, the whole Mike Brown thing and everything else.

249
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: There was a lot of support given for this idea

250
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,839
Speaker 1: that cops are racists who are hunting down black men

251
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: for sport. That was what Black Lives Matter protesters were saying.

252
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: And I know because I heard them say it, so

253
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,959
Speaker 1: I've been through the stuperilde. Let's not what they were No,

254
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: that is what they were saying. That is what they

255
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: were saying. And police officers were murdered because of that.

256
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 1: And CNN was the worst offender in giving that narrative,

257
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: giving that storyline, oxygen, giving it more room to burn,

258
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: throwing gasoline on the fire. They were doing all of that,

259
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: and now they want to lecture us about creating a

260
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: hostile environment. Now now they want to tell us, oh

261
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: my god, the protesters. You know, there's there's more on

262
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: these books, but I've really had enough of this. I

263
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: don't want to hear any more of the journalists, these

264
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: these you know, cosseted, overpaid, wimpy milk post stealth liberals

265
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: that go on TV and get all all all this

266
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: acclaim and yeah, you know, people say, don't talk about

267
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: George John cocktail parties. It's such a cliche. Okay, fine,

268
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: I'll talk about color rama cocktail parties, right, I mean

269
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: the fancy day, I'll talk about what goes on and

270
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: Martha's Vineyard and Nantuckett and the Upper West Side. And

271
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: that's actually where all these journals live. And they're being

272
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: treated as heroes among their friends. Their paychecks are only

273
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: getting bigger, even though their audience is getting smaller at

274
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: the NIT. But they know they'll be taking care of

275
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: any risks, risks please. Everybody's watching them, was like, oh,

276
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: thank you for standing up for truth against Trump the tyrant.

277
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you're so brave. And you know, cost

278
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: is just he just this is this is theater now right,

279
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: we all know that he but others do it too.

280
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: You know, you can't say CNN sucks? Why not? Why not?

281
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: I remember covering Occupy Wall Street. As I said, and

282
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: if you had a Fox News, if you had a

283
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: Fox News uh signed microphone on up, if you'd signed

284
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: itge that said Fox News up, people would people would

285
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: get up in your face and threatened to yell at you.

286
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: And nobody was, Oh Fox News. It's so sad. And

287
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: that's one network, the only network, the only network that

288
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: represents the other fifty percent of the country that you

289
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: think could have maybe more than one network, and that

290
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: something you're gonna say, like news Max or in America.

291
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: But if you look at the rate things, folks, there's

292
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: one network in this, Fox News. So I'm not done

293
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: with this because this got this, This got further coveragetay

294
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: in the White House press conference. I mean we we

295
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: really should, we should really air this out, We should

296
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: really dive into this a bit. I'll talk to you

297
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: more about policy and immigration and all that other stuff

298
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: later on on the show. This media fight right now

299
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: is the center of Hey, we'll all talking about Muller

300
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: probe and this Manafort, the Manaphort trial. This is like

301
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: a It's a glorified tax evasion case, that's all it is.

302
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: I've got some thoughts on that I'll share the two

303
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: eight four or four to five eight four four nine

304

00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: not send me, call me, or send me a tweet

307
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: if you want at buck Sexton, I'll go back. But

308
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: I think Washington is so anti Trump, and the liberal

309
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: media saw anti Trump don't understand what's happening out there.

310
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: Let's just give you one example, sanctuary cities. Eighty four

311
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:14,439
Speaker 1: of the American people believe sanctuary cities increased crime. Now

312
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 1: every Democrat in the Senate co sponsored Senator Einstein's open

313
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: border bill. There's no state in the country we're more

314
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: than people favor open borders. So that the Democrats are

315
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: talking themselves out on these radical left agendas, which in

316
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: the Washington Post, the New York Times, and CBS News

317
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: all sounds terrific. But I think when you get down

318
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: to September in October, we're going to discover that there

319
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 1: there's a red wave, not a blue wave, and that

320
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: people are going to repudiate the kind of radically streamism

321
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: that we're seeing emerging in the Democratic Party. There is

322
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: this extremism, I mean new Newt has been it's been

323
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: been you know when new it's in the sweet spot.

324
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: He's pretty good and uh, he's he's been making a

325
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: lot of sense these days. Well for a while. Now.

326
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: You know this, this notion of sanctuary cities. I talked

327
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: to you about it yesterday. There is really no good

328
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: reason for this. There's nothing about sanctuary cities that respects

329
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: the rule of law. There's nothing. It's just pandering from

330
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: Democrats to constituencies that are in the country illegally. This

331
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: this is speaking of collusion. Sanctuary cities are how the

332
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: Democrats collude against the rule of law. That's what's going on.

333
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: And I think people need to know that and that

334
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 1: story I told you yesterday. I really want more people

335
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: understand that that because of these sanctuary policies, the Immigrations

336
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 1: and Customs enforcement, criminal investigators who are handling drug trafficking, uh,

337
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: child sexual exploitation, human smuggling, you know, crime crime, really

338
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: important issues of criminal justice and keeping communities safe, they

339
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: don't get cooperation from local law enforce And that was

340
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: told me by Obama's acting Ice director. Okay, so this

341
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 1: is not I'm not looking at this on some blog

342
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: somewhere you know that this guy told me to my

343
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: face and somebody who was generally, you know, sympathetic at

344
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: least to what Obama was trying to do on a

345
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: lot of other immigration areas, but on this one, he's

346
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: just like, that's not a good idea anyway. I just,

347
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: you know, this is where we were as we're getting

348
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 1: closer to mid terms. I just hope the American people

349
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: remember that abolished Ice was for about a month a

350
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: rallying cry of the Democrat Party until they realized, oh

351
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: my gosh, that's crazy. We probably we can't fool centrists

352
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: and independence into voting for us if we're calling for

353
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 1: abolishing ICE for doing their job. But I do want

354
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: to get back to what happened at the White House

355
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: today in response to CNN's ambulance session. Uh, this is

356
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: gonna be good, Sarah, how could be Sanders? She had

357
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: a home run today in response, So we'll get to that.

358
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: He's back with you now, because when it comes to

359
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: the fight for truth, the buck never stops. Is the

360
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: White House willing to say right now, in view of

361
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: what happened with one of our TV colleagues last night,

362
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 1: that it is wrong for his most vocal supporters to

363
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: be menacing towards journalists doing their jobs in a situation

364
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: like that, or in any situation, nobody was last night.

365
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: They were trying to prevent a broadcaster from getting his

366
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 1: broadcast out and yelling at his network sucks. Is that

367
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: right or wrong? I'm I'm sorry, what was the first

368
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,679
Speaker 1: part of your question? I said, no one was being

369
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: violent last night in terms of hitting anybody, and no

370
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: broadcaster was broadcasting state secrets. They were trying to do

371
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: stand ups at a public rally, and he had people

372
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,719
Speaker 1: trying to yell over them, preventing them from doing their

373
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 1: jobs and yelling that their network sucks. On live TV.

374
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: Support that or not. They really want to see if

375
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: they can get on the record the White House calling

376
00:20:55,160 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: out Trump supporters for saying that CNN sucks. That that

377
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: seemed to be a quite quite a focus today for

378
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: a few minutes there at the White House Press conference.

379
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 1: By the way, I'm a believer in get get rid

380
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 1: of the get rid of the cameras in the White

381
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,959
Speaker 1: House press conments. You know how this goes? By the way,

382
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: folks speaking of the swamp and things that you learn

383
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,719
Speaker 1: when you're down here, you know, they are signed seating,

384
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: which is very very hierarchical in the White House Briefing Room,

385
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: the White House Correspondence Association, you know, the people who

386
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 1: are in charge of the White House Correspondence Dinner. Those uh,

387
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: those elitists, throne shiners, they're the ones that decide who

388
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: gets to sit where in that room, and they're very

389
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: involved in all this. And as I've said to you before,

390
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 1: you know, I think the White House Correspondence Dinner, it's

391
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: just the whole thing, is Ikey. I went many years ago,

392
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 1: really my first year in media. I didn't know any better.

393
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I'll go. I was invited, I'll go.

394
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: Uh it's it's first of all, it sucks. It's not fun,

395
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 1: and you're around a lot of people who I don't

396
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: really want to hang around, and it's really slow and boring,

397
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: and the food is bad. So what's the point. I

398
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 1: went to a a couple of parties thrown by some

399
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: other media entities that were after parties. Those were fun.

400
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: I mean, did buck Gingham style? Can neither confirm nor deny. Yeah,

401
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: Gettingham style? That was awesome? So where was I on this? That?

402
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: That will give you a sense of how many years ago.

403
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: It was too there was there was Gangham style folks.

404
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,959
Speaker 1: I think there was actually a video. I don't know,

405
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: somebody somebody at BuzzFeed may or may not have Gangham

406
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: style buck video. Uh So, but back to the the

407
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: guy saying that, oh no, look, how there's so mean

408
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: to them? Ah, well, you know what. I want to

409
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 1: give you my analysis. But first here's here's Sarah Houckeby Sanders,

410
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: who's they're they're trying to box her into a corner.

411
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,479
Speaker 1: And I think she's at the she's kind of at

412
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 1: the screw it part of this whole thing, where she's like,

413
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 1: you know what, if you're just gonna take cheap shots

414
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: at the president of the the time, we're gonna give it

415
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: as much as we get. And uh. Here here's how

416
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: she responded to this line of question in play six team. Please,

417
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: the President condemns and denounces any group that would uh

418
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: and violence against another individual, UM, and certainly doesn't support

419
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: uh groups that would promote that type of behavior. We've

420
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: we've been clear about that a number of times, uh

421
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: since the beginning of the administration. On the second part

422
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: of your question, Um, the President, as I just said,

423
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: does not support violence against anyone and or anything, and

424
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: we've been very clear, um every single time we've been

425
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: asked about that. When it comes to the media, the

426
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 1: President does think that the media holds a responsibility. Uh.

427
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: We so fully support a free press, but there also

428
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: comes a high level of responsibility with that. The media

429
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: routinely reports on classified information and government secrets that put

430
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 1: lives in danger and risk valuable national security tools. This

431
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: has happened both in our administration and in past administrations.

432
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,679
Speaker 1: One of the worst cases was the reporting on the

433
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: US ability to listen to Osama bin Laden's satellite phone

434
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: in the late nineties. Because of that reporting, he stopped

435
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 1: using that phone and the country lost valuable intelligence. Unfortunately,

436
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: it's now standard to abandon common sense ethical practices. This

437
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: is a two way street. We certainly support a free press,

438
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 1: We certainly condemn violence against anybody, but we also asked

439
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: that people act responsibly, uh and report um accurately and fairly. Yeah,

440
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: that this this didn't all just start today or last

441
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 1: night at the at the Florida rally. You know, I'm

442
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: sorry to have to keep repeating this because it's I know,

443
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's one of these events that we all

444
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: wish we could kind of forget. But which political party

445
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: and under which administration? Was there a mass assassination attempt

446
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:48,439
Speaker 1: of congressman against right? Which political party almost lost a

447
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 1: bunch of its congressmen to a mass assassination? And did

448
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 1: you know did get some of our people did get shot? Right,

449
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: some congressmen did get shot? But where was that? That's right?

450
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: It was Republicans of the Freedom Caucus. And who shot

451
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 1: them a Bernie bro a Democrat while Trump's president. So

452
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 1: the only act of truly heinous political violence at that

453
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 1: level against elected officials that has occurred while Trump has

454
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: been in office has been against Republicans. And yet we

455
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: have to sit around and get lectured by CNN and

456
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: their ILK about how the president occurred his violence, the

457
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: president coured his violence? Here? Here, here's little test, folks,

458
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 1: find me a news story of somebody who got punched

459
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 1: in the face, had a drink poured on them, got

460
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 1: slapped around because they had a Obama Biden T shirt

461
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 1: on for all eight years of Obama in office. Maybe

462
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: you'll find it, I mean, but you're gonna have to look,

463
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: and I don't know if you'll find it. Good luck,

464
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 1: you probably won't find that. Now if I ask you,

465
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: if I ask you to find an incident of a

466
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 1: Trump supporter getting hit that way, literally hit getting getting assaulted,

467
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: you'd be like, well, Buck, which week you want last week?

468
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: Or you want the week before that, or you want

469
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: the week before that. You know this happens, it happens

470
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 1: to our side. Okay, I'm the one who has to

471
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 1: walk around this city and when people see me, if

472
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: they recognize me from what I do, which, by the way,

473
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 1: you know, I do conservative stuff. So I'm not saying

474
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: that happens a lot. But if it does happen, or

475
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 1: if I see a member of Team Buck, that's always exciting.

476
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: But I have to think of myself. Okay, well, am

477
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: I gonna have a problem here because what the mainstream

478
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 1: media has been feeding its audience since Trump won is

479
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: a steady diet of they don't care about murdered children,

480
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,239
Speaker 1: which is horrifically ironic because of course they're the pro

481
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: abortion party, but they're saying, you know, children that get

482
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 1: killed in mass shootings, Republicans don't care about it. That

483
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 1: was the whole tone and tenor of that that hate

484
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,399
Speaker 1: fest that they said was a town Hall. I mean,

485
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 1: CNN should be ashamed of itself for that town Hall ashamed.

486
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: You'll notice, by the way, all these anchors they talk

487
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: tough on CNN. When was the last time you saw

488
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: one of them going to a an unfriendly political environment

489
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: and try to defend their reporting. They don't do it

490
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: like cowards. They snark on Twitter and then they go

491
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: in their their their little privileged purchase and that they

492
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: don't I've by the way, I've invited CNN anchors on

493
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: this show lots of time never come on this show.

494
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't think that I won't. I mean, don't think

495
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: that I don't. I just stopped because I kept getting

496
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: told a little corporate won't allow. A corporate won allow?

497
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 1: What's because they're cowards? Do they really want to have

498
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 1: this debate? Here's how they debate with a CNN anchor

499
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: would go on this network with me who who spent

500
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: real time there and knows a lot of people on

501
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 1: the different shows, knows their producers, knows some of what

502
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,360
Speaker 1: these guys and gals are really like. By the way,

503
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 1: which also they don't like. You know, I've gotten a

504
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: little bit of a peak under the hood, and it's

505
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: not good. Uh. I'm would start with CNN. Is CNN

506
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: a partisan network? To CNN have a point of view,

507
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: the CNN a Democrat aligned news organization. They would all

508
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: say no, so they start from the premise of they

509
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,719
Speaker 1: start from a lie, and then the conversation would just devolve.

510
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: But that's they're still you know. I mean, if you

511
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: had MSNBC on, they would say, yeah, we're you know, no,

512
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 1: we're journalists. We're trying to print the facts. But you know, yeah,

513
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: we have we're we're progressive or you know, we're I

514
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,360
Speaker 1: think they would say that. Maybe not, and maybe they're

515
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: just as delusional. And I just don't know them as

516
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: well because I know CNN stuff better. But that rally

517
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: they had or they're not rally, uh whatever. The town

518
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: hall where Dana lash showed up and Marco Rubio and

519
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, I don't know what he was doing there.

520
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: I don't know why he thought that was a good idea,

521
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: Mark Rubio, I gotta tell you, really disappointing. You know,

522
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: I think there was some raw town There was obviously

523
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: some raw talent there. The guy got elected U S

524
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: Senator itself made I mean, I still have respect for him.

525
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 1: I'm not. But in the era of Trump, just you know,

526
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: I don't need to hear the little model u n

527
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: speech about how he knows he knows some things he's

528
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: been briefed on about this or that national security issue,

529
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: like let's actually get on board and get some get

530
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: some wins on the board for the Republican Party here

531
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: at home. And I think on that issue he has

532
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 1: been more than lacking. So I am just I'm disappointed

533
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: in a a little little Marco. That's an aside, but I

534
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: just want to put that out there. But CNN had that,

535
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 1: and then they also allowed one of the survivors of

536
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: the Parkland shooting to go on TV and and say

537
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: unchallenged that people that don't agree with his myriad gun

538
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: control ideas, you know, we gotta listen to eighteen year

539
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 1: eighteen year old now explained to us all gun control

540
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: his mirroad gun control, I deals, don't care about dead

541
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: children and have blood on their hands. That's what was

542
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: being said, with anchors just nodding enthusiastically. I mean, Rachel

543
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: mattaw was was fan girling when the Parkland kids came.

544
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember we played the audience like, oh

545
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: my gosh, I'm so you know, this is so amazing.

546
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: You know, it was of course all the theater for

547
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: her audience too, because they were the the political tool

548
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: of the left for the moment. But then they weaponized

549
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: that tool by having kids, one kid in particular, David Hogg,

550
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 1: go on TV and go after people, and go after

551
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: their careers, go after their sponsors, really trying to take

552
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: them down. I really trying to hurt people, get people

553
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: fired for disagreeing with them on policy, and call them heartless,

554
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: you know, heartless people with with blood on their hands,

555
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: who don't care about dead children. And and and now

556
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: CNN wants to lecture us all on discourse and civility.

557
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: Do you think that they've spent a lot of time

558
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: uh at at CNN or any of these other networks,

559
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: any of the non Fox networks focused on what really

560
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: goes on a campus. Now, when I when a college

561
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: uh invites a conservative speaker, I don't want to talk

562
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: about that. I don't want to talk about that issue.

563
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: Do you think that they really cover how much security

564
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: is needed for some of these speakers? Of course not.

565
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: And I mean I just say this to you, and

566
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: I was saying before about Obama Biden. You could walk

567
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: around any city in America for all eight years of

568
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 1: Obama's presidency with an Obama Biden t shirt on, and

569
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: you were either going to be a d percent safe

570
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: or a percent and get a high five from other

571
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: leftists you walk around. I will tell you this, I

572
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: would not be comfortable. And I know I look young,

573
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: but you know, six ft tall, two hundred pounds, I

574
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: would not be comfortable walking around Washington d c uh

575
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: wearing a Maga hat for let's say a week. I

576
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 1: want to stay not be comfortable. I don't mean I

577
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: mean that, I know that I'd be looking for problems.

578
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 1: I know that somebody would say something, they'd start something

579
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: with me. And I also depends on what part of

580
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: the city we're talking about, too, So that is reality.

581
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: Jim Acosta with cops everywhere on TV, with people yelling

582
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: you suck, well, that's also reality. But that's not a threat.

583
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 1: Nothing bad is gonna happen to Nothing bad is gonna

584
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: happen to see ann They're going to continue to be,

585
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 1: you know, an overpaid legacy media institution that has all

586
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: kinds of access and gets its way all right. And

587
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: this is just complete and utter slap sism. They're obsessed

588
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: with themselves. They're dishonest and how they present things. And

589
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: for the very people who have done the most in

590
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: this country to course in the political discourse and make

591
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: it seem acceptable to really debase your political opponents, to

592
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: drag them on Twitter, to make them hated, to make

593
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: them untouchable, to make them less than dirt in the

594
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: eyes of fellow Democrats. Right to just take Conservatives and

595
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 1: Republicans and trash their character in their lives, get them boycotted,

596
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: all that stuff. For those people now to play oh

597
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: wait here, we are just be night to each other.

598
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: I just I don't want I won't have it. I

599
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: won't have it. And they won't even go out and

600
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: make this case publicly. They'll just go on friendly media

601
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: outlets or people that really, you're right, thank you for

602
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 1: thank you for holding the administration to account, thank you

603
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: for speaking truth to power. Just punks. Really, it's just punks,

604
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: and the American people are onto the game. I hope

605
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: that look. I hope see it changes. It wasn't as

606
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: crazy five years ago. It really wasn't. It's gone into

607
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 1: some other gear. It's some other level of wacko eight

608
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:48,320

00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: if you can't take controversy, you ought not be there

627
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: to try to report on it. Yeah, and I would

628
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 1: just point out not a single journalist. Not a single

629
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: journalist has been uh physically assaulted at a Trump rally

630
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 1: that I am aware of, not one at all the rallies.

631
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: So I mean, well, you know, I'm just presenting the facts.

632
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: And how many rallies have there been, how many journalists

633
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: have been to those rallies? You know, they tried this

634
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 1: crap with the Tea Party to the Tea Party got

635
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: together hundreds of thousands of Americans at rallies. How many people,

636
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: how many Tea Party assaults happened? I mean, the worst

637
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: thing that ever happened at Tea Party is, you know,

638
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: somebody put something in the recycling that they meant to

639
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: put in the trash. I mean, that's it. And and

640
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: yet they acted like the Tea Party with some sort

641
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: of a you know, some sort of mob assault on

642
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: American democracy. It's just crazy, man. The only the only

643
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: assaults I ever heard reported at a Tea Party rally

644
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: where a Tea Party attendees getting assaulted. That's correct. I

645
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: was gonna say that there are some union goons that

646
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 1: assaulted some Tea Party people. I remember that happened to

647
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 1: Shields Higher. Thanks for calling from a Harrisburg Rachel. We've

648
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:09,479
Speaker 1: got about a minute. Rachel from California, what's on your mind? Hi? So, um,

649
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 1: I keep hearing, how are you talking about the media

650
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: and how they just don't really have brains and the

651
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: sense that they're just really But how much do you

652
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 1: think that like CNN reporting and affecting the American people, Like,

653
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: do you think that people actually listen to that and

654
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: agree with them and then do something about it? Because

655
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: I know, like, do you have CNN on in the background,

656
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: because I hear a baby crying, so that would make sense?

657
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: Does the baby here Accosta's voice? I would cry too.

658
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 1: But I'm sorry you're You're asking a serious question, and

659
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: I'll give you a serious answer. Um, I think that

660
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: CNN is poisoning the discourse and his poisoning dialogue. But

661
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: I think that also their audience is dwindling, and it's

662
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: down about twenty or twenty five percent year to year,

663
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: which in TV terms is big. And you know, they've

664
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: got less than a million people watching, which when you

665
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 1: compare it to Fox, you know, on on a good

666
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: night Fox and some of its lineup will have three

667
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 1: or four million people. I mean, on Hannity will have

668
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 1: four million people watch the show. So it's pretty amazing, right,

669
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do think Rachel that that CNN is

670
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:13,479
Speaker 1: making things worse. Shieldsay sorry for for jumping in there quickly. Uh, team,

671
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: we got a big second hour. We gotta talk about

Speaker 1: people want to talk to you, but this is an

705
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: important question. We'll get to the calls in a moment. Mike,

00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 1: The answer is I got with American. It's a safe

00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:34,480

713
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: that's that's the good American. What do you Yarlsberg guy?

714
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: There you go, Yarlsberg. I was gonna say, I think

715
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 1: the answer is Cheddar. I don't care that it's I

716
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 1: think technically British. I think Cheddar is good. Wisconsin, Hey, Wisconsin, Cheddar.

717
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: There you go. We didn't get John in on this

718
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: from but I have a feeling he's a blue cheese

719
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: crumble guy. You know he's he's secretly he's got some

720
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: hipster in there. He likes a little blue cheese crumble

721
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: from you know, the raw milk Commune. That's that's the

722
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,280
Speaker 1: that's the way to get the blue cheese going. Anyway,

723
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 1: important questions that we have to answer sometimes during the show.

724
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 1: I just thought of that now, Manafort though whatever he

725
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,359
Speaker 1: likes the most expensive cheese. I did have to note

726
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: that yesterday it came out that he bought a a

727
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: fifteen thousand dollar Ostrich jacket, and that's one of the

728
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: things in this Manafort trial that they're all focused in on.

729
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: This Judge T. S ellis the third who doesn't suffer

730
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: fools lightly. He had to tell them to stop with

731
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 1: just the the the the wealth shaming or really the

732
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: bling shaming that's been going on in this trial. But

733
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 1: I will say, an Ostrich coat, that's really something that's released.

734
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: You know, you really need your Ostrich coat as you're

735
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: driving around in your tesla on your way to your

736
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 1: holistic life coach. So he's spent fifteen dollars on that,

737
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 1: and the judge today in this trial, I had to

738
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,879
Speaker 1: tell that prosecutors to lay off this whole thing. But

739
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: you know you can tell the interest in the Manapoort case.

740
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,240
Speaker 1: This is your folks. This is very straightforward. The fairer

741
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: thing is just an add on because that's essentially how

742
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: Mueller justifies that this falls under his purview in some way. Right,

743
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: the Foreign Agent Registration Act violation, which people don't go

744
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 1: to prison for. Usually they just say, all right, you

745
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: gotta register. I mean, it's kind of a you know,

746
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: you get a mulligan on this one. Usually it's not

747
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 1: that big a deal, but they throw that in there

748
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 1: because it at least explains why this is being even

749
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 1: looked at by Manaford. But then when you when you

750
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: go a little a little further into this, you see that, Okay,

751
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 1: so this guy did all this consulting, and how many

752
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: people even knew that until Trump? I think Trump tweeted

753
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: this out today. Manaford had worked for a lot of

754
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: previous administrations. Uh, Manaford had you know, spend time. By

755
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: the way, do we have the CNN sucks chant? John?

756
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: I just want to have that handy just in case.

757
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 1: But we have to listen to it. Make sure there's

758
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: no there's no potty mouth stuff there that people are

759
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: yelling about how CNN suck. One of the the music to

760
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: my ears. I think I'm gonna you know, if we

761
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 1: were still in an era of of ring tones, I

762
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 1: think I have to make that ring That'd be great

763
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 1: every time I get a phone call see you on

764
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 1: sucks Uh, good times, good times. I think for your

765
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: new show intro, we should we should probably put it

766
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: and then let me think about that. That that that's

767
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: a bold that's a bold move, producer Mike to open

768
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 1: the show sucks. I don't think they're gonna have me

769
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,760
Speaker 1: over there again anytime soon for a for a segment.

770
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 1: I think you are going anyway, yeah, I will see

771
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: the last time. The last time I was over there,

772
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: a very very prominent get An executive looked at me

773
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 1: like what and this was gosh, I don't even know.

774
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: This is over a year ago. What are you doing here?

775
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 1: I was like, WHOA, what is that? I was invited?

776
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 1: What do you mean? What am I doing here? You

777
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 1: guys asked me to come on this thing. This is

778
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: before Trump, but that was before Trump won. So the

779
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: whole different world now whole different world. But then Manaphort trial,

780
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 1: the guy is, you know, hiding money offshore allegedly right,

781
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: it hasn't been proven yet, but it doesn't look good

782
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: for him. He's hiding money off shore and you know

783
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: he's he's using it too. He's using that untaxed money

784
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 1: to pay for things to support his lifestyle. Here it's

785
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: a it's a pretty straightforward tax fraud case. And they're

786
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: gonna really uh, they're gonna really nail him. And this

787
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: is what they're going By the way, here's what Trump

788
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 1: tweeted out. Um. Trump tweeted out that Paul Manafort this

789
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: was earlier today. Paul Manafort worked for Ronald Reagan, Bob Dole,

790
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: and many other highly prominent and respected political leaders. He

791
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: worked for me for a very short time. Why didn't

792
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: government tell me that he was under investigation? These old

793
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: charges have nothing to do with collusion, a hoax, that's true.

794
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: The fascination folks with menaphort is they've just they've created

795
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 1: this narrative in people's minds that somehow there's something Manafort

796
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 1: Russia putin Facebook bought related that any day now is

797
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 1: gonna come out. I'm telling you that's not gonna happen.

798
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: You already know that's not gonna happen. But I'm just

799
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: reaffirming no way, no way. But this is really an

800
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: extension of Trump' arrangement syndrome. And in fact, not not

801
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 1: to get all all weepy and and Acosta like here,

802
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 1: but I think it's really unseemly to see so many

803
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 1: people reacting with glee to the fact that a a

804
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 1: an American for the crime of hiding taxes from the

805
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: hiding money from the government it's gonna spend the rest

806
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: of his He's probably gonna die in prison. Now, he's

807
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: gonna spend the rest of his life in prison if

808
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: he's convicted on all this. You know, he's got a family,

809
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: you know, man of Ford probably probably has a dog,

810
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: probably loves his dog. He's got a family, loves his family.

811
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he's he's a person, and they're

812
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 1: just they want this guy crushed. And it really reminds

813
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: me of what happened with Scooter Libby in that sense.

814
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: They hated Scooter Libby. Oh my gods, They're calling him

815
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 1: a traitor and all this terrible stuff, and it was

816
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: just he became the target of the rage that had

817
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: built up against the Bush administration. And MANA. Ford is

818
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 1: now a target of the anti Trump rage. And I'm

819
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 1: not saying Manafort. You know, with Libby, they just they

820
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: just did him dirty. That's a whole different thing. But

821
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 1: with with man of Fort, Okay, so the guy cheated

822
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 1: on his taxes allegedly. I mean, it looks looks like

823
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 1: you probably did. But that's what they're saying, cheating on

824
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 1: those taxes. You know, if I told you that somebody

825
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: cheated on their taxes and you were sitting down and

826
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 1: we're all having lunch, and he was sitting there with us,

827
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: would you get up and leave? No, you probably say okay,

828
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,720
Speaker 1: that sucks. You know, you might you might say that sucks.

829
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,960
Speaker 1: You got caught, But you'd probably say, all right, you know,

830
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 1: you pay your debt to society. You know, Okay, it

831
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: doesn't make it like a terrible person. It's a crime.

832
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta answer for it. Fine, but not

833
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: that big a deal in the grand scheme of things.

834
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: And like the cosmic existential why are we here? You know,

835
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: the the millions of dollars that Manaford didn't pay to

836
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 1: the the U. S. Treasury makes zero difference to anyone, folks.

837
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 1: I'm not justifying. I'm not saying you don't go to

838
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 1: prison for it, but I'm just saying it really doesn't.

839
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 1: You know, the victim here is the United States Treasury.

840
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: And if you were to aggregate this out or not

841
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: or disaggregate this, I mean you'd see that. You know,

842
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: Paul Manaford probably stole the equivalent of point zero zero

843
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 1: zero zero zero one pennies from you or something, so

844
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 1: I know he's gonna pay his debt to society, but

845
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 1: it looks like he's gonna go to prison for a

846
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,360
Speaker 1: very very long time. I just find it unseemly and

847
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 1: unnerving that people are celebrating this so much, like, yeah,

848
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,400
Speaker 1: we got him, all right, so he's a dirty tax

849
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: cheat that really made Does this really make people feel

850
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 1: better about themselves at night? That this guy got nailed

851
00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:52,360
Speaker 1: because he was foolish enough. And I've seen this with

852
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: other people that got you know, they got close. It's

853
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 1: kind of the Icarus effect, right, those of you who

854
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,279
Speaker 1: are Greek mythology fans, remember Icarus built the wings, got

855
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: too close to the melted the wax, and the wings

856
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,880
Speaker 1: felled the sea. I wish do more Greek mythology on

857
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: the show Man. That's one thing we haven't worked in

858
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: a while. But I've got my handsful now that I've

859
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 1: committed to doing uh the Siege of Malta official Shields

860
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: Shields High podcast, so that and and this month. I've

861
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: committed to it, but cannot tell alive once he commits

862
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 1: he has to do it. I just don't think this

863
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 1: Man of Foord thing is is nearly as interesting as

864
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 1: so many of my my media colleagues do. But that's

865
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: because they view this as Manaford is getting the you know,

866
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 1: the the two minutes hate from the mainstream media about Trump.

867
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 1: He's become the vessel for the scapegoat for anti Trump

868
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: is um. And the fact that they've gone through everything.

869
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 1: I mean, they rated his apartment, you know, the early

870
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,399
Speaker 1: raid in the morning, they got they used a key.

871
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:54,279
Speaker 1: They don't even know they got the key. I think

872
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: that came up today. Uh, you know, the fact they

873
00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 1: did all this stuff, they went after him so hard,

874
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 1: and they still haven't out on any Russia collusion. I

875
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 1: think that tells you what you really need to know here.

876
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: I think that tells you that there's no Russia collusion

877
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 1: to speak of. I don't have time to get into

878
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 1: the collusion is is or is not a crime thing

879
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:16,360
Speaker 1: today because we did that yesterday. And I'm noticing that

880
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,279
Speaker 1: there's this shift, just mark my words on this. They're

881
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 1: now saying, well, conspiracies a crime, and they're gonna try

882
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: to play this game of collusion is a political offense

883
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 1: and conspiracies their criminal offense, and they're gonna they're moving

884
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: the goalpost. So when they don't get conspiracy charges, they're

885
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: gonna say, well, collusion is a political charge, and that's

886
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 1: what we've proven, not in a court of law, but

887
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:40,479
Speaker 1: in the court of public opinion, as can only be

888
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 1: shown in a mid term election. That they will say

889
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 1: is a referendum on Trump and that if they win

890
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 1: the House, they will then impeach him. Right, that's the

891
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: whole playbook. I just took you through the Democrats playbook

892
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 1: going into this midterm election, and that's what I reallys

893
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: the happening here. But you know, one thing that's come

894
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 1: up a lot is the FBI's disparate treatment of threats

895
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: to the Trump campaign versus threats to other campaigns. Why

896
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 1: didn't they, as Trump pointed out, they didn't let him

897
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: know that they were going after his campaign? Why is

898
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 1: that the case? But in other cases they have the

899
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: FBI did step it, notably with Hillary Clinton. We've actually

900
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: got John Solomon, who's my colleague here at the Hill,

901
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,760
Speaker 1: who's got a piece up on this. We're gonna discuss

902
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,280
Speaker 1: it with him now, burning up the charts, and everyone's

903
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,160
Speaker 1: reading this one said, WHOA, what's going on here? Why

904
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,879
Speaker 1: does Hillary get protected by the FBI when it comes

905
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 1: to any Russian agent of influence? But agents of influence

906
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 1: were encouraged almost it seems, by the FBI to penetrate

907
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: Trump's campaign. We will get into that and uh much

908
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 1: more coming up, teams, So stay with me. I don't

909
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 1: know about you, but I end up checking way too

910
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,320
Speaker 1: many times to see is my door locked? Did I

911
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,520
Speaker 1: leave the gas on? Did did I leave a window open?

912
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 1: And I'm I'm gone a little paranoid about that stuff.

913
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 1: But you know what's better than being paranoid, folks, having

Speaker 1: Hey everybody, welcome back. So you know we have a

930
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: piece here by John Solomon, who runs Digital at the Hill.

931
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 1: He's also a well known investigative journalists. You see him

932
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 1: a lot on Hannity Show on Fox News. He's actually

933
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,239
Speaker 1: with me in studio. The piece is the real Maria

934
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 1: Bouccina scandal. FBI could have prevented it. John, thanks so

935
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:23,879
Speaker 1: much for joining. Glad to be here. All right, so John,

936
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,960
Speaker 1: tell us what happened here. We've got a tale of

937
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,839
Speaker 1: two Russian Russian agents as you start out here, Yeah,

938
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: that's exactly right. So when people look and say has

939
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,839
Speaker 1: there been disparate treatment in the FBI, bias or just

940
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: playing different approaches, I think this is one that's going

941
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,759
Speaker 1: to stand out to people. In Tourni eleven, there was

942
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: a Russian spy ring led by a woman named Anna

943
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:46,360
Speaker 1: Chapman and uh as soon as she activated, she was

944
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,160
Speaker 1: a sleeper selling as soon as she activated, and one

945
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,759
Speaker 1: of her agents, UH, Cynthia Murphy was her American name,

946
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 1: went to try to get to towards Hillary Clinton and

947
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 1: get some political connections. A donor, Allan Patrick off close

948
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:01,440
Speaker 1: to Hillary Clinton. The FBI rolled up the whole ring.

949
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: They took no chances, they didn't want any compromising of

950
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 1: US officials. So that's that's the That was the gold

951
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 1: standard of how the FBI dealt with Russian spies or

952
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: Russian influence agents. Now, as fast forward to two weeks ago,

953
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:15,960
Speaker 1: when the FBI suddenly arrested a woman named Maria Bettina.

954
00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,879
Speaker 1: What I reported this column is that the FBI knew

955
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: since and maybe even earlier, that she was a Russian

956
00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 1: agent of influence, that she was trying to make inroads

957
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,359
Speaker 1: with conservative politicians, that she was having access to people

958
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:34,360
Speaker 1: who had security clearances, governors, members of Congress, former national

959
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 1: security advisors, former ambassadors. And yet, unlike the Anna Chapman

960
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: scenario when they were going after conservatives, the Russians weren't

961
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 1: rolled up. Maria Bettina had free access for basically four

962
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 1: years UH to to make influence and and UH access

963
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: to the conservative network of money donors, big big presidential candidates,

964
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,440
Speaker 1: even President Trump, and they didn't roll her up. And

965
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: people are asking the question, well, why do you roll

966
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 1: up one when they get close to Hillary Clinton, and

967
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 1: you don't roll up the other one when they get

968
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: close to conservatives, and uh, the FBI doesn't have a

969
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: good answer for that. Yeah, it seems to echo what

970
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:11,200
Speaker 1: Trump has said about how if there were problems with

971
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:14,439
Speaker 1: the Russians trying to penetrate his campaign, why was he

972
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,439
Speaker 1: as a presidential contender, Why wasn't his campaign informed of it.

973
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,200
Speaker 1: It seems like there's a double standard or john for

974
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 1: what constitutes an actionable national security threat versus what the

975
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 1: bureau decides to let slide or or let play out. Well,

976
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 1: I say in here that one of the interesting things

977
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 1: that this these two cases happened under two separate FBI directors.

978
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 1: Bob Mueller rolled up the Anna Chapman ring, and Bob

979
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,120
Speaker 1: Muller was a product of post nine eleven. He was

980
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,040
Speaker 1: the first FBI director after nine eleven, and he preached

981
00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: that he was going to change the FBI right. He

982
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: was going to make sure that on counter terrorism and

983
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 1: counter intelligence they stopped worrying about prosecutions and they worried

984
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: about preemption and prevention. You probably remember some of this

985
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: when you were at the CIA, Buck that that the

986
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 1: FBI was trying to transform itself. James Coby comes in,

987
00:53:57,719 --> 00:53:59,719
Speaker 1: and I think he brings back to the FBI the

988
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 1: old pre nine eleven sentiment. Uh, prosecution is the way

989
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,600
Speaker 1: we go. We get headlines, we get glory, we can

990
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 1: pat ourselves on the black. And the difference is that uh,

991
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,399
Speaker 1: Bob Mueller's team rolled up an agent as soon as

992
00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,760
Speaker 1: they posed a threat to Hillary Clinton, and Maria Bettina

993
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 1: has left to just run wild in America for four years.

994
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,479
Speaker 1: In fact, the government gives her a student visa after

995
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: the evidence is gathered. The FBI sits on her for

996
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 1: eighteen months and watch what she does in secret surveillance. Uh.

997
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 1: They allow the embassy in Moscow to take two congressmen

998
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,440
Speaker 1: to meet her in um in St. Petersburg, even though

999
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 1: they have all of this open source intelligence of what

1000
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 1: she's doing. I think if you're Donald Trump and a conservative,

1001
00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna feel disserved when you compare it to the

1002
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 1: way Hillary Clinton's team got treated. And that that's the

1003
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 1: real question. Then the question becomes why is it incompetence

1004
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: a change of philosophy, or was somebody in the FBI

1005
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,840
Speaker 1: having a bias and hoping he could develop a case

1006
00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: that one day would embarrass the Republicans. We don't know

1007
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: the answer. Why, you know, speaking of of the wire,

1008
00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: why is the Boutina case not under the mull umbrella

1009
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:04,920
Speaker 1: people that Yeah, absolutely. I think even Maria Bettina his

1010
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 1: lawyers are wonder that allowed in court. I think that

1011
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 1: is a good question, which is if Bob Mueller's uh

1012
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 1: investigating a collusion in Russia efforts to influence the election.

1013
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 1: This is a woman that in sixteen had access to

1014
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,160
Speaker 1: the president, his son, and numerous Now there's anything a

1015
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 1: llegs wrong by them, but numerous political leaders, numerous presidential candidates,

1016
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: Santorum and Governor Walker Uh. And yet through all that

1017
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:33,960
Speaker 1: there's no warning. And then afterwards it doesn't appear that

1018
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 1: the guy who's supposed to be looking at Russian election

1019
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 1: interference thinks it's a big deal, so he kicks it

1020
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 1: or allows it to go to the Washington U. S.

1021
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,920
Speaker 1: Attorney's office. There's two theories of thought and people have

1022
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,040
Speaker 1: talked to. One is he doesn't think she was a

1023
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:47,400
Speaker 1: big deal, that this was sort of a low level,

1024
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: influenced peddaling scheme. Or two he sees some fault in

1025
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,360
Speaker 1: the FBI that he used to preach preemption too. And

1026
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 1: now they let this one go all the way through

1027
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:58,360
Speaker 1: until they can make a great prosecution case, and he

1028
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 1: just doesn't want to be near it. But it's pretty clear,

1029
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 1: at least at this point, Bob Muler wants nothing to

1030
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 1: do with this case. The pieces up on Hill Dot TV,

1031
00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 1: so folks can read it there the real Maria Bucina scandal.

1032
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: FBI could have prevented it. Also. I managed to get

1033
00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,799
Speaker 1: in a question about this to Devin Newness, which we

1034
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: have linked into the piece you can see to give

1035
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 1: you a little additional context. John, before we let you go, Uh,

1036
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,360
Speaker 1: what do you make of the referral to the Southern

1037
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: District of New York that Mueller's team made about some lawyers,

1038
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,080
Speaker 1: but not just lawyers. The reporter on this in the

1039
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 1: little Sketchy one had been a counsel to Obama in

1040
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: the White House. These are very prominent, very connected. We

1041
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 1: have very connected Democrat lawyers to Pesto, you know. And

1042
00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 1: there's a possible Foreign Agent Registration Act violation tied to this.

1043
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,800
Speaker 1: What's going on there? I think that uh, Special Counsel

1044
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:50,520
Speaker 1: Mauler is trying to keep his investigation as narrow as possible.

1045
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 1: It's not going to be a kitchen sink. He is

1046
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 1: signaling it's not going to be a kitchen seink. He

1047
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 1: kicks Maria Bettin there, right. He kicks Michael Cohen to

1048
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 1: the New York District, a southern just go New York,

1049
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:03,799
Speaker 1: even though clearly Cohen might have some relevant information. He

1050
00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 1: kicks these other lawyers who were working in concert with

1051
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 1: or had something to do with Ukraine at the same

1052
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:12,200
Speaker 1: time as Paul Manafort. So he's clearly signaling, Listen, I

1053
00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 1: got a very narrow mandate and I'm sticking to it.

1054
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna get poked for expanding my mandate. I'm

1055
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,720
Speaker 1: not gonna be Janet Reno and Ken Starr or Lawrence

1056
00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:22,400
Speaker 1: Walsh in the Reagan years. Uh this, I'm gonna get

1057
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,040
Speaker 1: my job done as quickly and get out of dodge

1058
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,720
Speaker 1: as quickly as I can. That's the what my reporting

1059
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:30,080
Speaker 1: indicates from inside his shop. And uh and so anything

1060
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 1: that's answllary that doesn't directly relate to his question. Uh,

1061
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,560
Speaker 1: you can see. And today there's another development, right, the

1062
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 1: president's lawyers got information about exactly what Bob Mueller wants

1063
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 1: to ask about. It's not about collusion, it's about obstruction.

1064
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: They only want to ask about the firing of James Combe.

1065
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 1: It appears that gives us a lot of guidance that

1066
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 1: Bob Mueller is narrowing down and maybe even winding down

1067
00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 1: where he's at Hill dot TV. Everybody to check it out,

1068
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: the real Maria Bettina scandal. FBI could have prevented it.

1069
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,480
Speaker 1: John Solomon is the author. John, thank you for joining

1070
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:01,439
Speaker 1: to be with you back. The team will be right back.

1071
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,960
Speaker 1: He's holding the line for America. Buck sex in his

1072
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 1: back and when not going to be reduced to their

1073
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:27,280
Speaker 1: vision of America. We're not going to be reduced to

1074
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: their selfishness and their isolation and their division. That is

1075
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:38,360
Speaker 1: not who we are. We're not going backwards. We're gonna

1076
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 1: go forward. We're gonna stand, and we're gonna rise, and

1077
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna resist this administration. We will not be diminished,

1078
00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:50,840
Speaker 1: we will not be demeaned. We're gonna fight back. But

1079
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,600
Speaker 1: we are right and they are long. We're gonna protect

1080
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 1: our health care system. It's the best in the nation.

1081
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 1: And we're gonna treat one another with the love, indignity,

1082
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 1: love and dignity. We're gonna protect our healthcare. We're gonna

1083
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:17,840
Speaker 1: make sure that we only yeoll, because when we yell,

1084
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:22,280
Speaker 1: we get a point across, and our faith New York

1085
00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:30,320
Speaker 1: accent comes across even more strong. Cuomo out. You know, healthcare, folks,

1086
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 1: is something that everyone's gonna be talking about now for

1087
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:36,760
Speaker 1: the first time in a while going into the mid germs.

1088
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 1: That and I'm gonna say it, I think Republicans have

1089
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:45,640
Speaker 1: done a a poor job um on on healthcare going

1090
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,920
Speaker 1: into the mid germs in terms of the messaging. You know,

1091
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 1: we had a poll last month year at the Hill

1092
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,720
Speaker 1: a pull that healthcare was a top issue for voters,

1093
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 1: and healthcare is going to continue to be a top

1094
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:04,600
Speaker 1: issue for voters. So, you know, here's the here's the

1095
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 1: bottom line, folks. Obamacare is a failure. Obamacare is not

1096
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 1: what was promised, is not what they said it would be.

1097
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:19,840
Speaker 1: And then they had to try and protect us from

1098
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:22,760
Speaker 1: some of the crappier parts of the law at least

1099
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 1: to extend us extended out longer, so we would take

1100
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 1: longer to figure out what was going on. Um But

1101
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,160
Speaker 1: I don't think you know, if I asked you right now,

1102
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: what are the Republicans, what are the Republicans offering when

1103
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: it comes to uh, healthcare. You know, it's not enough

1104
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 1: just to say, well, single payer is idiotic and we

1105
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,520
Speaker 1: can't do that and it's too expensive anything else. Yeah,

1106
01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:52,880
Speaker 1: that that's true. That is true, But we have to

1107
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,720
Speaker 1: offer an alternative to that. You Now, we have to

1108
01:00:55,760 --> 01:01:00,000
Speaker 1: do something that's more than just point out that. Uh.

1109
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:03,520
Speaker 1: You know, there are there are a lot of Democrats

1110
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,520
Speaker 1: out there who don't know the first thing about anything.

1111
01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 1: So you know, there are some areas where I'd really

1112
01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 1: like to see Republicans take the lead. And this is

1113
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,200
Speaker 1: one of them. Insurers there something that's gonna be double

1114
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:20,960
Speaker 1: digit increases folks in premiums. Uh, So you're you're gonna

1115
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 1: have a big premium hike. And you know, if we're

1116
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:28,400
Speaker 1: if we're counting on people to remember what Obamacare did

1117
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 1: and how it drives premiums up and how it's terrible

1118
01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,680
Speaker 1: for the health care system, I think we may be

1119
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 1: very disappointed when the votes are finally tallied up in

1120
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 1: the midterm election. So you know, this, this is a problem. Uh.

1121
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,440
Speaker 1: And there's some other areas of this. You know, Medicare party,

1122
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 1: which people say is great, but it's also really expensive.

1123
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 1: We probably want to rain some of that in and

1124
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:52,480
Speaker 1: figure out how to bring down costs. And oh, I

1125
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,600
Speaker 1: had on Senator Ron Johnson today we talked about the

1126
01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:58,560
Speaker 1: right to try legislation. So that'll mean that now, if

1127
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,520
Speaker 1: you really, really really want a drug that hasn't gotten

1128
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 1: all the way through f d A approval, you can

1129
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,480
Speaker 1: do it if you can afford it. You've mind, some

1130
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:12,160
Speaker 1: of these drugs cost several hundred thousand dollars. But you know,

1131
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 1: I just I wish there was a more cohesive message

1132
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:20,240
Speaker 1: because remember, they did not repeal Obamacare. They didn't even

1133
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:26,080
Speaker 1: skinny repeal Obamacare, and that leaves open territory for Democrats

1134
01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:28,240
Speaker 1: to come up with a counter narrative about what's going

1135
01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,320
Speaker 1: on here, leaves open territory for people like Cuomo to

1136
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:34,160
Speaker 1: be like, we love our healthcare system. When I go

1137
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 1: into a doctor, he puts the shiny metal thing on

1138
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:41,440
Speaker 1: my chest and it is a little cold, but it

1139
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 1: allows him to hear my heartbeat, which is good because

1140
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 1: if my heart was not beating, I believe I would

1141
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:54,120
Speaker 1: have a serious medical problem. So that's what they offer you.

1142
01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 1: You know, the other side has no has no solutions

1143
01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 1: other than to pretend that gonna get you a single

1144
01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 1: payer system, which would be absolutely ruinous. Um, but that

1145
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 1: leaves because the Republicans haven't established a cohesive narrative on

1146
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:13,680
Speaker 1: this one. You might have Democrats you start playing games with, oh, well,

1147
01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 1: you know, I'm actually for your more choice in hospitals

1148
01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:18,160
Speaker 1: and blah blah, and you know, we'll work within the

1149
01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:20,720
Speaker 1: system and you know, doing doing a little sort of dance,

1150
01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:23,480
Speaker 1: a little shuffle in the middle between the issues. And

1151
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, every every election is local, right, folks. This

1152
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 1: is when you get the Connor Lamb effect. This guy

1153
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania who if you look at me talking to

1154
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,160
Speaker 1: me like it sounds like guy might be Republican. Then

1155
01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:34,800
Speaker 1: he goes, well, I'm you know, I'm pro choice and

1156
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: pro union and pro Obamacare, and you're going down the

1157
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:39,160
Speaker 1: whole list, you know, pro legal alien, the whole thing.

1158
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 1: So if they can pull that stuff off, you know,

1159
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,560
Speaker 1: I I don't even know what is the what is

1160
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:51,760
Speaker 1: the healthcare healthcare pitch from the Republicans right now? They

1161
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:55,080
Speaker 1: did not manage to repeal Obamacare, and I think that

1162
01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 1: that is a that's a a big miss, and they

1163
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 1: don't have a clear plan They've gone with people, so

1164
01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 1: that's one area of vulnerability. I've got to be honest

1165
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: with you, it's an area of vulnerability I think going

1166
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 1: into the midterms. It creates concerns for me um and

1167
01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:14,080
Speaker 1: and it could resulting because you know what happens if

1168
01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 1: they take the House. This turns into impeachment central. That's

1169
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 1: what ends up happening in d C. We're just gonna

1170
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,880
Speaker 1: talking impeachment all the time, and everyone's gonna go into

1171
01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 1: their corner and we're gonna spend essentially the next two

1172
01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 1: years in a protracted presidential re election battle. Congress is

1173
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:36,680
Speaker 1: gonna be largely irrelevant. Nothing is gonna get done, and

1174
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 1: that's why it's so important that the Republicans keep the

1175
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 1: House and keep the Senate. You know, I'd also like

1176
01:04:43,480 --> 01:04:45,840
Speaker 1: to see them take some bigger risks on the legislation

1177
01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,240
Speaker 1: they're putting forward, But you know, I don't know these days.

1178
01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 1: You know, you've got the Mitch mcconnells, the Paul Ryan's

1179
01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:54,440
Speaker 1: calling the shots, not not non occuraging. I we got

1180
01:04:54,440 --> 01:05:06,680
Speaker 1: other stuff that I want to hit, So stay right there, team.

1181
01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:10,040
Speaker 1: So far, the Democrats haven't given us any votes, and

1182
01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:13,320
Speaker 1: that's because they will do anything they can to not

1183
01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 1: help the Trump agenda. Brett Kavanaugh, highest education, best grades,

1184
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:24,440
Speaker 1: best test best everything. They thought fifteen years ago he

1185
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,240
Speaker 1: was going to be a Supreme Court judge. Look at

1186
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:31,160
Speaker 1: Justice Gorsuch. How good is he? Not allowing these great

1187
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 1: people to serve that country. It's a disgrace. So Trump

1188
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,320
Speaker 1: making a case for Cavanal last night, it is a disgrace.

1189
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: And the people who are opposing Cavanaugh just always end

1190
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:44,440
Speaker 1: up looking one of my favorite words recently, un serious. Right,

1191
01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:49,760
Speaker 1: they look buffoonish, clownish. What's the problem? Oh? The the

1192
01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:54,440
Speaker 1: the currently serving judge on the DC Court of Appeals,

1193
01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:59,400
Speaker 1: which is considered the stepping stone to the Supreme Court

1194
01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,080
Speaker 1: by most of who watch these things closely. And the

1195
01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 1: guy who has the best legal pedigree you could possibly have,

1196
01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:09,080
Speaker 1: who everyone says is fair minded and decent and kind

1197
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:13,440
Speaker 1: and good and brilliant, who Elena Kagan hired when she

1198
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 1: was dean of Harvard Law School. That person is somehow

1199
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:20,640
Speaker 1: unqualified for I mean, I I saw this video today,

1200
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 1: and I try not to be nasty, even about politicians.

1201
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:25,960
Speaker 1: And I know I don't get personal, but I try

1202
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:30,080
Speaker 1: not to be too full of ridicule and snark. Although

1203
01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 1: sometimes I fail and you get Kirsten. By the way,

1204
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 1: can we John, should the name be Kirsten or Kristen?

1205
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 1: I think we can only have one. I think no, no,

1206
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 1: I'm not saying what is her name? It's it's she's Kirsten. Uh, Jilip,

1207
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 1: Wait is it? I just messed myself up as a Kurston.

1208
01:06:51,840 --> 01:07:00,080
Speaker 1: It's the only execute failure exactly exactly. Uh but anyway, No,

1209
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 1: it's it's gosh. The point I'm trying to make here, John,

1210
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 1: is that there should only be one name because they're

1211
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,960
Speaker 1: too close together and people get them wrong. It's Kirsten,

1212
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:11,840
Speaker 1: Gil Gillibrand, Alright, but we can only have one of

1213
01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:15,720
Speaker 1: these names. It can't be Kirsten or Kristen or Yearston

1214
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,160
Speaker 1: because like there's kids Yeerston, Nielsen or whatever. It gets

1215
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,920
Speaker 1: very confusing. Alright. Anyway, Jilah Brand, who is a Cenator

1216
01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:25,600
Speaker 1: from New York my home state, I guess not anymore

1217
01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,520
Speaker 1: now my home states. Technically this I'm I'm a technically

1218
01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,840
Speaker 1: a swamped while I was terrible, good for access, good

1219
01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:35,520
Speaker 1: for the show, but so swampy. But here's what Gillibrand

1220
01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:37,000
Speaker 1: said today. Just you know, I had to get into

1221
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 1: talking points, let it rip. Help all of you stands

1222
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:48,240
Speaker 1: up against having first step in actually overturning Robi Wayne,

1223
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:51,120
Speaker 1: the first step in making sure women don't have reproductive

1224
01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:53,439
Speaker 1: rights in this country, the first step in making sure

1225
01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:56,360
Speaker 1: that women don't have basic civil rights and civil liberties.

1226
01:07:56,680 --> 01:07:58,720
Speaker 1: This is a moment where we all have to fight back.

1227
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: All of us have to be organized, We have to

1228
01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:03,920
Speaker 1: make sure we are hard. We have to reach out

1229
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 1: to all our friends and everyone we care about in

1230
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,000
Speaker 1: all things the States. This has to be something that

1231
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:11,160
Speaker 1: we all stand together and fight against. Dutch Kavanaugh will

1232
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 1: be horrible for women's basic civil rights and civil liberties,

1233
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:18,960
Speaker 1: and against what the heck is she talking about, folks,

1234
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:22,720
Speaker 1: that's a sitting senator. Some people talk about her as

1235
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 1: a a possible presidential contender, although that's that's a joke.

1236
01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:30,280
Speaker 1: Can you can you imagine Trump against her in a debate?

1237
01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:34,559
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just not nonstarter. And I really mean

1238
01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 1: that she strikes me as a deeply unimpressive person. From

1239
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,080
Speaker 1: all the things, all the speeches, all the interviews, everything

1240
01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 1: I've seen this, I don't know what what there is

1241
01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:46,680
Speaker 1: here to get excited about. For for for Democrats, I'm

1242
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:50,320
Speaker 1: even talking about how I disagree with her, but you

1243
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:52,920
Speaker 1: hear the things that she says there, and this all

1244
01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:55,639
Speaker 1: ties in, you know why they don't want Kavanaugh? Why

1245
01:08:55,640 --> 01:09:00,559
Speaker 1: then Kavana is not the guy here the way reproductive rights?

1246
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:07,479
Speaker 1: This is a an Orwellian term in the truest sentiment.

1247
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:10,600
Speaker 1: What what does this even mean? Why can't they just

1248
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:14,720
Speaker 1: say abortion? If abortion is fine? Why can't you just

1249
01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:18,760
Speaker 1: say abortion if abortion is as I believe you can

1250
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:22,800
Speaker 1: make a very clear case the single most important right

1251
01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:25,040
Speaker 1: to the modern Democratic Party, and the thing that they

1252
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:29,320
Speaker 1: the thing that really defines the Democratic Party is that

1253
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 1: there's no room for pro life or is the Democratic

1254
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 1: Party anymore none? Uh. People say, well, I'm personally pro life,

1255
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:38,600
Speaker 1: as in a lot of ways, that's even worse to

1256
01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:41,599
Speaker 1: be personally pro life, so you know what what's ethical

1257
01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 1: and what's not. Apparently, but then in your public life

1258
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:48,960
Speaker 1: vote alongside the Nancy Pelosi's and the the abortion on

1259
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:51,920
Speaker 1: demand all nine all nine months of her pregnancy crowd,

1260
01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:59,560
Speaker 1: this is what his issues where, you know, folks, abortion

1261
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:03,680
Speaker 1: is there's not there's not a there's not a two

1262
01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:05,559
Speaker 1: ways about it. There's not a you know, there's not

1263
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:09,000
Speaker 1: some Oh, you know, it's it's this is just complicated.

1264
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:11,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it is a right and wrong issue.

1265
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:13,760
Speaker 1: But but you'll notice the way she talks about it,

1266
01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,639
Speaker 1: and it's as part of her opposition to Kavanaugh. She's saying, oh,

1267
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,680
Speaker 1: reproductive rights, civil rights, What civil rights does Kavana want

1268
01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:23,680
Speaker 1: to take away from women? And a lot of us

1269
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:25,920
Speaker 1: sit here and say, I don't even believe that it's

1270
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:29,479
Speaker 1: the I don't even believe that it's the role of

1271
01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:32,559
Speaker 1: judges to to do the things that Democrats are worried about,

1272
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,559
Speaker 1: meaning that they're supposed to rule the constitutionality of laws.

1273
01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,280
Speaker 1: They're not supposed to come up with new laws just

1274
01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:42,759
Speaker 1: because they like something or don't like something. So I also,

1275
01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,720
Speaker 1: you know that their fears in a sense give you

1276
01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:49,960
Speaker 1: an idea of how Democrats view the Supreme Court. Their

1277
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:54,120
Speaker 1: fears give you a sense of what what they would

1278
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,519
Speaker 1: like to have and what they would have if they

1279
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:01,200
Speaker 1: got one of their people in the White House. So

1280
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:03,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry the well in the way that's true, but

1281
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 1: also on on the Supreme Court, on the on the

1282
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 1: Supreme Court, So you know, I see this stuff about

1283
01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:12,599
Speaker 1: the capital is gonna get through, folks. I'm pretty confident

1284
01:11:12,600 --> 01:11:17,000
Speaker 1: about it. And you know, Democrats, I think have already

1285
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:20,400
Speaker 1: they've spent themselves to sugree or they're still so focused

1286
01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:24,240
Speaker 1: on anti trump Ism that all that rage and all

1287
01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:28,120
Speaker 1: that angst and anger and victory, all that they would

1288
01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:33,559
Speaker 1: normally ordinarily try to mobilize for the purposes of stopping

1289
01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:39,280
Speaker 1: a Supreme Court pick, that is, they don't have it

1290
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,719
Speaker 1: because they're they're still all focused on Trump and Mueller

1291
01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 1: and Russia and all this stuff. That's where they are

1292
01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:49,120
Speaker 1: on this one. That's the the problem as I as

1293
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 1: I see it, um, you know, and then there's there's

1294
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:55,000
Speaker 1: one other thing, by the way, and I have to

1295
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:58,040
Speaker 1: do it with Kagan. I mentioned her before. The Daily

1296
01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,960
Speaker 1: Caller reported on this earlier in the week that Justice

1297
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 1: Kagan fears politicized confirmations are destroying faith in public courts.

1298
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 1: I saw this tweet and I thought to myself, you know,

1299
01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:11,479
Speaker 1: this reminds me of the way the media views They

1300
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:14,560
Speaker 1: never understand that you don't get to just pick the

1301
01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:17,760
Speaker 1: date when all consciousness begins, or you don't get to

1302
01:12:17,880 --> 01:12:21,439
Speaker 1: artificially say, well, I'm worried about what's happened in the

1303
01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:22,960
Speaker 1: last six months, and then the rest of us say,

1304
01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 1: what about the last six years? And this notion of

1305
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:31,240
Speaker 1: a politicized confirmation battle first a lot of stretches back

1306
01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:34,839
Speaker 1: for decades, but it only really became an issue when

1307
01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:38,920
Speaker 1: liberals on the court started writing lass and then it

1308
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:42,719
Speaker 1: was clear that progressivism in this country and the American

1309
01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:45,160
Speaker 1: left viewed the role of the Supreme Court as a

1310
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:48,360
Speaker 1: super legislature. And then it became an arms race to

1311
01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:52,559
Speaker 1: try and get conservatives or liberals on the court. But

1312
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,439
Speaker 1: liberals politicized at first, and this notion of a swing

1313
01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:57,160
Speaker 1: vote as kind of the the balance. I mean, this

1314
01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:00,320
Speaker 1: is just this is a band aid on the overall problem.

1315
01:13:00,880 --> 01:13:03,360
Speaker 1: We shouldn't be we shouldn't be thinking about conservatives or

1316
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 1: liberals in the Supreme Court. We should be thinking about

1317
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:09,599
Speaker 1: good judges who interpreted the law. And I have an

1318
01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:15,600
Speaker 1: understanding of the Constitution and some deference to pressident, but

1319
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,880
Speaker 1: also understanding that the ultimately this is about upholding and

1320
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:23,120
Speaker 1: defending the Constitution via the law. And I just think

1321
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:25,880
Speaker 1: it's fascinating that now that the political fights around the

1322
01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:29,320
Speaker 1: open over the Supreme Court, there's some liberals expressing regret

1323
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:32,600
Speaker 1: about it. It's just because they're about to lose, folks.

1324
01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:36,840
Speaker 1: That's why they have regrets about it. That's the problem.

1325
01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 1: And just like with with the media's I was saying,

1326
01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:41,439
Speaker 1: they they don't like all these attacks on the media

1327
01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:44,040
Speaker 1: and everything else. That well, when they had a monopoly

1328
01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:47,160
Speaker 1: on the national conversation, which they did for many decades

1329
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:50,760
Speaker 1: via the media, at least I'm not playing the media conversation.

1330
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:53,840
Speaker 1: You know that that was fine. Now that's gone, and

1331
01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 1: now they're worried about people not trusting the media. Okay, well,

1332
01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,760
Speaker 1: that lack of trust didn't come out of nowhere, just

1333
01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:02,880
Speaker 1: like our concerns about politicization of the Supreme Court didn't

1334
01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:07,320
Speaker 1: come out of nowhere. But you know, this is our

1335
01:14:07,360 --> 01:14:09,120

Speaker 1: or not, the shutdown fight that is looming. We've got

Speaker 1: great American again. This is the Buck Sexton Show activity

1368
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:08,640
Speaker 1: and will. In the past, politicians ran for office pledging

1369
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:11,639
Speaker 1: to crack down on unfair trade. They never did anything

1370
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:16,160
Speaker 1: about it, only to get elected and they just didn't

1371
01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:24,320
Speaker 1: do anything. The United States was allowed to truly get

1372
01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:30,400
Speaker 1: ripped off. But We're not gonna let that happen. I'm

1373
01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:34,799
Speaker 1: not like other politicians. You've seen what happens. I've kept

1374
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:39,719
Speaker 1: my promises. They're not dumping so much anymore. You notice,

1375
01:16:41,880 --> 01:16:46,600
Speaker 1: and if they do, they're paying Tower four attacks. So

1376
01:16:46,680 --> 01:16:48,800
Speaker 1: you know what I say to that, dump all you want.

1377
01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:55,080
Speaker 1: I hope you dump a lot now. Thanks for our tariffs.

1378
01:16:55,640 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 1: Are steel workers are back on the job America and

1379
01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:06,400
Speaker 1: steel mills are back open for business. Trump quite a

1380
01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:09,160
Speaker 1: rally last night in Florida, quite a rally. We we look.

1381
01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:12,080
Speaker 1: We've been talking about it, the dynamics between Trump and

1382
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:15,439
Speaker 1: the press, but now people are getting a little bit

1383
01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:19,960
Speaker 1: more nervous about the possibility of a of a broadened

1384
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:25,240
Speaker 1: trade war with China. Two billion dollars of Chinese imports,

1385
01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: they're saying now, and this could start to bite just

1386
01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 1: in time for the mid term elections, which I have

1387
01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:37,280
Speaker 1: to say is it is a risk. You know, one

1388
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:41,200
Speaker 1: thing though that you'll notice and and I believe a

1389
01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:43,280
Speaker 1: lot of people that have seen this Trump wave coming

1390
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:48,160
Speaker 1: have understood this from the beginning, and it's it's at

1391
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:52,400
Speaker 1: odds with much of the stuff you hear about politicians

1392
01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:54,080
Speaker 1: and how they should act and how they should be.

1393
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:59,400
Speaker 1: Leadership isn't supposed to be a process of when we're

1394
01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:03,520
Speaker 1: talking about press sinential leadership trying to trying to establish

1395
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 1: a real change in direction on important issues to the country.

1396
01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:11,400
Speaker 1: It's it's not about getting consensus and and polling in

1397
01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,559
Speaker 1: the media on your side. I mean, you you get

1398
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:16,200
Speaker 1: consensus from as many of the American people as you

1399
01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,800
Speaker 1: can in order to become president. But once you're in

1400
01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:22,559
Speaker 1: that seat, leadership is not supposed to be putting your

1401
01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:24,200
Speaker 1: finger up in the air and deciding which way the

1402
01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:26,920
Speaker 1: wind is blowing and go with that. And on this

1403
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: issue of trade, uh, you know, my thinking has come

1404
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:33,519
Speaker 1: much more around to the Trump point of view on this,

1405
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 1: which is everyone agrees there's problems, especially with China. Every

1406
01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:40,040
Speaker 1: trade expert I say I talked to says there's problems

1407
01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:43,799
Speaker 1: with China. Everyone that I know who follows this issue,

1408
01:18:45,160 --> 01:18:48,559
Speaker 1: or even even in a every man sets right just

1409
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:51,200
Speaker 1: from reading the newspapers, everyone understands China's problem for US

1410
01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 1: UH and trade with China has caused problems in our economy.

1411
01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:57,360
Speaker 1: I mean, if nothing else, the rip off of our

1412
01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:59,360
Speaker 1: intellectual property and some of the other things they're doing

1413
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:04,240
Speaker 1: a really, really bad but no one does anything about it.

1414
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:06,840
Speaker 1: No one does anything about it. And then Trump comes

1415
01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:08,720
Speaker 1: along and says, you know, we're actually gonna stop this.

1416
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:11,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna hold the Chinese accountable for this. We are

1417
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 1: going to take action that will hopefully get a change

1418
01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 1: in behavior from China. And they're not gonna like it.

1419
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:20,760
Speaker 1: And there could be some pain in the short term

1420
01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,439
Speaker 1: for US economically, and this is gonna be some rough seas.

1421
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:30,240
Speaker 1: That's leadership, though understanding there's a problem, being willing to

1422
01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:33,719
Speaker 1: bear the costs of addressing the problem and giving yourself

1423
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 1: a real shot of fixing the problem. If it were obvious, folks,

1424
01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:39,880
Speaker 1: and I know you know this, and a lot of

1425
01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:42,880
Speaker 1: you are listening to the show, saw what was going

1426
01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,919
Speaker 1: on with Trump before I did so. I I approached

1427
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:49,559
Speaker 1: this with with some degree of humility because I've I

1428
01:19:49,640 --> 01:19:51,559
Speaker 1: have now seen I am I am a true believer

1429
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:57,160
Speaker 1: through facts. I'm a true believer through reality on the ground,

1430
01:19:57,200 --> 01:19:59,800
Speaker 1: meaning that as I've seen what Trump has been able

1431
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:02,120
Speaker 1: to do from the beginning, you know, and I've told

1432
01:20:02,120 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 1: this to friends and family mine, I'm like with every month,

1433
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, Trump is even doing a better. Trump's even

1434
01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:10,360
Speaker 1: better than I thought. And now we're going on eight

1435
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 1: months of that, so you can imagine around like, oh,

1436
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:14,360
Speaker 1: Trump is even better than I thought. You know. I

1437
01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:16,080
Speaker 1: started out with all let's see where he goes. You know,

1438
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 1: it's amazing he beat Hillary and and I voted for him,

1439
01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:20,760
Speaker 1: and I told others to vote for him, and all right,

1440
01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:22,280
Speaker 1: I'm on, I'm on the Trump train. Let's see where

1441
01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 1: it can take us. And now I'm like up in

1442
01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:25,960
Speaker 1: the front of the Trump train with the engineers like

1443
01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:29,400
Speaker 1: choo choo baby, like a freight train choo cho you know,

1444
01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:34,000
Speaker 1: I'm I'm saying, let's go because I I see what

1445
01:20:35,280 --> 01:20:37,360
Speaker 1: is not just possible for him to achieve, but also

1446
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:40,040
Speaker 1: who's against him and the lengths they're willing to go

1447
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 1: to look at how much we have to talk about

1448
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:44,280
Speaker 1: the Mother probe and all this other stuff, and then

1449
01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:47,879
Speaker 1: on an issue like trade, my eyes have been opened.

1450
01:20:48,520 --> 01:20:52,680
Speaker 1: You know, what do smart people say? Quote smart people, right,

1451
01:20:52,680 --> 01:20:54,400
Speaker 1: what do they say when when they're asked about trade,

1452
01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:58,880
Speaker 1: I'm a free trader. I like free trade. That's like saying,

1453
01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:04,040
Speaker 1: you know, I'm i'm pro I'm pro liberty. Oh what

1454
01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 1: does that mean? You know? You yeah, I'm pro liberty.

1455
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:09,639
Speaker 1: Your pro liberty. But that's not the answer to any

1456
01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:12,360
Speaker 1: question about liberty. That's not the answer to you know,

1457
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:14,200
Speaker 1: should you be able to grow weed in your backyard? Well,

1458
01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:17,240
Speaker 1: i'm pro liberty. I mean, well that that's not enough.

1459
01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:18,680
Speaker 1: By the way. I think the answer that's probably yes,

1460
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:20,080
Speaker 1: you should be able to grow weed in your backyard.

1461
01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:23,400
Speaker 1: But that's a whole other discussion. I don't On trade.

1462
01:21:23,560 --> 01:21:26,559
Speaker 1: You just had this answer that was offered you, I'm

1463
01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,479
Speaker 1: I'm I'm pro free trade, you know, and that's what

1464
01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:31,679
Speaker 1: all the everyone looks around. Oh yeah, Trump comes along,

1465
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:33,599
Speaker 1: They said, oh, he doesn't know anything, he doesn't understand.

1466
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:36,400
Speaker 1: This is too complicated for him. And he's saying, well, no, actually,

1467
01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:39,880
Speaker 1: free trade is not free right now. There are a

1468
01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:41,599
Speaker 1: lot of restrictions, there are a lot of tariffs, there's

1469
01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:43,200
Speaker 1: a lot of games the other side plays. I've been

1470
01:21:43,240 --> 01:21:46,080
Speaker 1: telling you about this, right, there's there's not there. There's quotas,

1471
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:50,120
Speaker 1: there's percentages of the overall goods brought into the country.

1472
01:21:50,160 --> 01:21:54,280
Speaker 1: They're specific item tariffs where it's a percentage of you know,

1473
01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:57,280
Speaker 1: you pay a cost based on the on on the

1474
01:21:57,320 --> 01:21:59,120
Speaker 1: price of the goods. I mean, there's all these different

1475
01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:02,479
Speaker 1: there's slowdown that they intentionally institute to give domestic production

1476
01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:07,120
Speaker 1: and advantage all kinds of stuff, and not just China's.

1477
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:09,439
Speaker 1: China is doing it, but Canada's doing, the EU is

1478
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:11,960
Speaker 1: doing a lot of people are doing it. So he

1479
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:14,120
Speaker 1: comes here to shake things up. And I feel like

1480
01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,519
Speaker 1: some people, especially in the GOLP, they don't understand that

1481
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:20,280
Speaker 1: Yees shaking things up is uncomfortable at first. There is

1482
01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:25,840
Speaker 1: an adjustment period, there's there's a necessary adaptation that has

1483
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:31,320
Speaker 1: to occur. And there's also the embracing of risk. Trump

1484
01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:34,160
Speaker 1: is embracing risk of there no question, and it might

1485
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:36,639
Speaker 1: not work. We might get slammed in the mid terms.

1486
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:39,960
Speaker 1: You know, if tariffs send up being a a big

1487
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:42,800
Speaker 1: loser force in the short term and the economy terms.

1488
01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:46,440
Speaker 1: You know, this is not no one's offering guarantees here, folks.

1489
01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 1: The only guarantee is if you don't try to deal

1490
01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:52,160
Speaker 1: with China on trade, if you don't take the approach,

1491
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:54,599
Speaker 1: if we've got to fix this, this is the status

1492
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:59,200
Speaker 1: quo is not acceptable, then you'll be in a place

1493
01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:03,439
Speaker 1: where you're suffering the same problems you have. This Nothing

1494
01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:06,519
Speaker 1: gets better, that is, that's for sure, right Because if

1495
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:08,800
Speaker 1: if you're letting somebody steal from you and ring this

1496
01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:11,800
Speaker 1: ring the game, they're gonna keep doing that. That's the

1497
01:23:11,840 --> 01:23:13,600
Speaker 1: only thing you're If you try to stop them, you

1498
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 1: might not be successful, but if you do nothing, they're

1499
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 1: definitely gonna keep doing it to you. And I see

1500
01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 1: how Trump has changed this changed this discussion such that

1501
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:26,360
Speaker 1: now the so called smart sets like, well, I mean, yeah,

1502
01:23:26,479 --> 01:23:28,960
Speaker 1: you know, there's you're trying to as a problem and

1503
01:23:29,040 --> 01:23:31,240
Speaker 1: it's pretty bad, and you know, maybe there's something that

1504
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,800
Speaker 1: could be done here. So I just think that, you know,

1505
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:38,080
Speaker 1: I'm not a it sound like I'm not like a

1506
01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:41,160
Speaker 1: trade expert like Ocasio Quartet style. I'm not like the

1507
01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:43,360
Speaker 1: expert on that thing or this other thing. But like

1508
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:47,040
Speaker 1: I totally like want socialism, uh no, but really I'm

1509
01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,719
Speaker 1: not somebody spends all days sitting or sitting down reading

1510
01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:53,120
Speaker 1: long trade agreements. There are people who do that work it,

1511
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:57,240
Speaker 1: various government agencies and probably some think tanks in the

1512
01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,200
Speaker 1: economic wing and everything else. That's not what I do.

1513
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,479
Speaker 1: But I see the argument he's making, and I think

1514
01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:04,559
Speaker 1: he deserves at this point, given the four point one

1515
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:07,280
Speaker 1: percent GDP growth we've just had, given how well the

1516
01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:11,360
Speaker 1: economy is doing, giving that, given that wages UH have,

1517
01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:14,200
Speaker 1: wages as a percentage are up more now than they've

1518
01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:17,920
Speaker 1: been at any times since two thousand and eight, I

1519
01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:21,720
Speaker 1: think that he's bought himself the leeway to try this

1520
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:24,840
Speaker 1: out and have our support as he does it. And

1521
01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 1: and as I said before, it's also he doesn't He's

1522
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:30,479
Speaker 1: not taking a PLEBIS site here. This is not Oh guys,

1523
01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:32,040
Speaker 1: before I do this, I want to show hands. Do

1524
01:24:32,040 --> 01:24:34,400
Speaker 1: you think I should take on China and trade? He

1525
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 1: told us what the platform was, he told us what

1526
01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:38,800
Speaker 1: the agenda was, and those just voted for him and said,

1527
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,000
Speaker 1: all right, let's go for it. Let's see what you

1528
01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:45,080
Speaker 1: got um and on this issue, I think he will

1529
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:46,760
Speaker 1: surprise a lot of folks, just like I think he's

1530
01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna surprise people in North Korea. Although I've seen some

1531
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:52,759
Speaker 1: of the troubling stuff in last twenty four hours about

1532
01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:55,000
Speaker 1: them still building missiles. I'm not blind to it, neither

1533
01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:57,280
Speaker 1: of you. But let's see where it goes on this

1534
01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:01,439
Speaker 1: trade war. I hope that the timing of it is

1535
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:03,639
Speaker 1: not the problem because the timing could affect the mid terms,

1536
01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:07,160
Speaker 1: but we will see. Let's talk about the border wall

1537
01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:08,960
Speaker 1: and the shutdown. I got some more on that, stay

1538
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 1: with me. Is the funding of the border wall going

1539
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:29,080
Speaker 1: to wait until after the mid term elections? Probably, and

1540
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:32,160
Speaker 1: that's something we do have a disagreement on. And the

1541
01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:34,759
Speaker 1: homeland security won't get funded before the mid term probably

1542
01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:38,559
Speaker 1: not um but most of the government will be covered,

1543
01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 1: and then at the end of the year, if we

1544
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:42,479
Speaker 1: can't reach an agreement on that, we'll do what's called

1545
01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:45,679
Speaker 1: a continuing resolution for that little portion of the government

1546
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:50,920
Speaker 1: spending that's left unpassed in individual bills. So you're not

1547
01:25:50,960 --> 01:25:55,679
Speaker 1: worried about the government shutdown because I have heard this theory.

1548
01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,920
Speaker 1: I happen to think it's a good thing politically. I'm

1549
01:25:58,960 --> 01:26:01,320
Speaker 1: not doing good for politics. I'm doing it because it's

1550
01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,560
Speaker 1: the right thing to do. So I'm not looking at politics,

1551
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:06,400
Speaker 1: but I happen to think that border security would be

1552
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:08,840
Speaker 1: a good thing before the election. But there are many

1553
01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:11,800
Speaker 1: people within our party that are good, good people that

1554
01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:15,120
Speaker 1: like you, that agree with you on everything you say,

1555
01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:17,559
Speaker 1: but they'd rather do it after. They don't agree on

1556
01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:21,200
Speaker 1: on doing it before. And I accept their you know,

1557
01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:23,360
Speaker 1: their opinion, but I happen to think it would be

1558
01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:26,280
Speaker 1: a good thing to do before. I actually think we'd

1559
01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:29,200
Speaker 1: get more and they'd be more pressure on the other

1560
01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:31,920
Speaker 1: side because we're doing it because the Democrats are not

1561
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:38,240
Speaker 1: giving us the votes. So the shutdown decision is going

1562
01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:41,160
Speaker 1: to come pretty soon here, and you're you know, you

1563
01:26:41,240 --> 01:26:43,200
Speaker 1: heard there that the two different sides that if you

1564
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:48,320
Speaker 1: got one to get McConnell majority leader Merciable Cornell, and

1565
01:26:48,439 --> 01:26:52,799
Speaker 1: he's out there saying that that this absolutely, there absolutely

1566
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:55,640
Speaker 1: should not be a shutdown. Not keep in mind, you know,

1567
01:26:55,720 --> 01:26:58,840
Speaker 1: Mitch is not he's not worried about his position, is

1568
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:02,519
Speaker 1: not worried about his job, and you know he's a

1569
01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:04,800
Speaker 1: guy who is risk averse on these things. Now. To

1570
01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:08,639
Speaker 1: be fair, Mitch is also he's he managed to hold

1571
01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, I gotta give there got some credit. I

1572
01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:11,880
Speaker 1: know a lot of people go and talk radio, they

1573
01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 1: bash the majority leader because it's really easy to just Republicans. Yeah,

1574
01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,320
Speaker 1: Republicans let us down on a lot of stuff, but

1575
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:23,280
Speaker 1: on some things, like, for example, not caving and doing

1576
01:27:23,320 --> 01:27:26,120
Speaker 1: the whole Merrick Garland thing. You know, Mitch McConnell held

1577
01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:28,439
Speaker 1: his people together. There weren't the defections that could have

1578
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:32,360
Speaker 1: gotten the Mitch Garland thing going. I mean Mitch Garland. Gosh,

1579
01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:37,040
Speaker 1: Merrick Garland. The uh Mitch Garland is somebody else, I guess,

1580
01:27:37,320 --> 01:27:39,720
Speaker 1: Americ Garland. And and as a result, we're gonna have

1581
01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:42,080
Speaker 1: Kavana on and I think Misch McConnell's gonna get having

1582
01:27:42,080 --> 01:27:44,080
Speaker 1: all through pretty quickly. So so we give him credit,

1583
01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:47,720
Speaker 1: all right. Fun, But you know, there's I think a

1584
01:27:47,720 --> 01:27:51,520
Speaker 1: bit of amnesia here, folks, there's a bit of amnesia

1585
01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:57,600
Speaker 1: about what happened, uh this past January with the the

1586
01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:02,719
Speaker 1: Schumer shutdown. You guys remember that you remember the Schumer shutdown. Uh, well,

1587
01:28:02,840 --> 01:28:07,920
Speaker 1: here's here's a little bit of background. Uh. Mr Schumer

1588
01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:09,720
Speaker 1: should have remembered this from the Waltston Journal that at

1589
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:12,639
Speaker 1: least in the short run, whoever caused the shutdown loses

1590
01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:16,400
Speaker 1: in Republicans. Senator Ted Cruz convence the GOLP House, it

1591
01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:20,639
Speaker 1: could defond Obamacare, etcetera, etcetera. Or Republicans picked up nine

1592
01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:24,800
Speaker 1: senten seas in thirteen House seats in mid terms. The

1593
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:28,240
Speaker 1: games were despite the shutdown, not because of it. Well,

1594
01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:32,200
Speaker 1: you know, he here's the problem with all this. I understand,

1595
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:34,320
Speaker 1: this is the conventional wisdom, right, I understand this, But

1596
01:28:35,080 --> 01:28:37,280
Speaker 1: you know Schumer and those guys, they were threatening to

1597
01:28:37,320 --> 01:28:39,400
Speaker 1: shut down the government because they thought that they had

1598
01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:42,160
Speaker 1: the upper hand and we're told, oh, well, they they

1599
01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:43,920
Speaker 1: would have been blamed for it, so they stayed away

1600
01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:47,720
Speaker 1: from it, right. But I think that maybe it was

1601
01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:51,240
Speaker 1: because it was on the issue of immigration and people

1602
01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:53,879
Speaker 1: don't want amnesty. They don't want the government shutdown for amnesty,

1603
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:59,439
Speaker 1: and Trump was the x factor at all this. I

1604
01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:03,960
Speaker 1: think this can actually work through our advantage. You know,

1605
01:29:05,040 --> 01:29:07,320
Speaker 1: what is going to get people to turn out in

1606
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:11,000
Speaker 1: the mid terms in competitive states. What's an issue that

1607
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,880
Speaker 1: could really show where the Democrats stand versus where the

1608
01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:17,559
Speaker 1: Republicans stand. I have to say, I think it is

1609
01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:22,679
Speaker 1: this issue. I don't think there's another issue that comes

1610
01:29:22,840 --> 01:29:25,840
Speaker 1: uh close to this. And that's why Trump is going

1611
01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:28,800
Speaker 1: around saying things about the border specifically play clip three.

1612
01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:34,679
Speaker 1: The evangelicals have been so amazing to us. They came

1613
01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:39,560
Speaker 1: out and they voted and double and triple the numbers

1614
01:29:39,600 --> 01:29:44,480
Speaker 1: that ever voted an election before. We love the evangelical

1615
01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:50,559
Speaker 1: for instance, if you want safety, if you want orders,

1616
01:29:50,680 --> 01:29:53,599
Speaker 1: if you want to have a country, then you need

1617
01:29:53,600 --> 01:30:02,679
Speaker 1: to go out and vote Republicans. That's right. There needs

1618
01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:06,160
Speaker 1: to be a reason. People have to be told why

1619
01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,519
Speaker 1: they should take their time, why they should show up,

1620
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:12,720
Speaker 1: and and and I don't believe that you know this.

1621
01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:15,240
Speaker 1: The whose fault is the shutdown? Is the question they

1622
01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:16,720
Speaker 1: always asked. They always say it's going to be the

1623
01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:21,960
Speaker 1: Republicans fault. But on this issue, I think if we

1624
01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:24,760
Speaker 1: say that it's about funding homeland security and getting a wall,

1625
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:28,559
Speaker 1: and and falling through a presidential promise when you have

1626
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:31,559
Speaker 1: a majority in the House, majority of the Senate, the

1627
01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:34,880
Speaker 1: Democrats being obstructuredist on this one, I think that well,

1628
01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:37,639
Speaker 1: you know, look, folks, we're not gonna get a wall

1629
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:39,400
Speaker 1: if it waits after the mid terms. I really think

1630
01:30:39,439 --> 01:30:42,160
Speaker 1: that that's the case. And especially if the Democrats take

1631
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:43,760
Speaker 1: the House, which all the numbers are said, it's going

1632
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:48,120
Speaker 1: to happen. So fortune favors the bold. We can either

1633
01:30:48,160 --> 01:30:51,799
Speaker 1: try something here. We've had Trump be so disruptive, managed

1634
01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:55,679
Speaker 1: to beat the conventional wisdom on all this stuff time

1635
01:30:55,720 --> 01:30:58,519
Speaker 1: and again, and now the conventional wisdom is saying, oh

1636
01:30:58,560 --> 01:31:00,720
Speaker 1: no, no no, this time, this time, we're this time, We're

1637
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:04,800
Speaker 1: really gonna get it. We understand this political moment. Don't

1638
01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:08,840
Speaker 1: fall into this trap, don't make this mistake. And one,

1639
01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:10,720
Speaker 1: I think the media doesn't have the power that it

1640
01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:16,439
Speaker 1: has had in the past to assign blame over a shutdown. Uh.

1641
01:31:16,479 --> 01:31:20,800
Speaker 1: And too, I think that if Trump makes the case

1642
01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:24,720
Speaker 1: about why he is unwilling to remember, you know, he's

1643
01:31:24,760 --> 01:31:29,000
Speaker 1: unwilling to be a part of the Democrats doing business

1644
01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:31,679
Speaker 1: as usual, all this stuff, I think you could work.

1645
01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:34,679
Speaker 1: But you know, if I'm a betting man, I'm gonna

1646
01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:36,479
Speaker 1: bet that they're just gonna go along. And I think

1647
01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:38,080
Speaker 1: that they're not gonna do the shutdown, and we're just

1648
01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:39,800
Speaker 1: gonna go into the mid terms and we're gonna lose

1649
01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:41,479
Speaker 1: the House. And you know what they're gonna say if

1650
01:31:41,479 --> 01:31:44,400
Speaker 1: we lose the House, Folks, you know this right now.

1651
01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:46,479
Speaker 1: And I don't mean to be pessimistic about this one.

1652
01:31:46,520 --> 01:31:49,760
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to be honest. But at the moment

1653
01:31:49,760 --> 01:31:51,639
Speaker 1: they lose the House, what they're gonna say is, well,

1654
01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:53,400
Speaker 1: you know, now we can't do it because we gotta

1655
01:31:53,400 --> 01:31:58,439
Speaker 1: work with the Democrats, and that window that we had

1656
01:31:58,520 --> 01:32:01,679
Speaker 1: to try and get a border wall will be gone.

1657
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:05,760
Speaker 1: I one thing and I'm absolutely certain of is that

1658
01:32:05,800 --> 01:32:08,640
Speaker 1: a wall would be effective. And then Democrats if we

1659
01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:10,559
Speaker 1: ever got a wall built, Democrats what spen all this

1660
01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:14,000
Speaker 1: time talking about how you know they never opposed the

1661
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:17,320
Speaker 1: wall really or the wall isn't isn't as effective as promised.

1662
01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:19,240
Speaker 1: They've told us as a joke, right that there's nothing

1663
01:32:19,280 --> 01:32:21,960
Speaker 1: that the wall will do. I meanwhile, anyone who's been

1664
01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:23,559
Speaker 1: to the border says, well, if you make it harder

1665
01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:25,519
Speaker 1: to get across the border, less, people will get across

1666
01:32:25,560 --> 01:32:29,400
Speaker 1: the border illegally. Um. They don't want to hear it.

1667
01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:32,400
Speaker 1: They don't want to hear it. I'm I think there

1668
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:34,280
Speaker 1: should be a wall, folks. This was what we were promised.

1669
01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:36,360
Speaker 1: Build the wall, was the chant. We don't have any

1670
01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:37,800
Speaker 1: of the audio right now, but you know we can

1671
01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:40,280
Speaker 1: find it very easily. It's all over the place. Build

1672
01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:42,000
Speaker 1: the wall, Build the wall. That's what they were saying.

1673
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:46,200
Speaker 1: A an establishment of sovereignty and a decision to break

1674
01:32:46,240 --> 01:32:50,519
Speaker 1: with the political consensus of the past few decades that

1675
01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:55,040
Speaker 1: we should just rely on members of Congress to get

1676
01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:57,000
Speaker 1: tougher when it comes to the enforcement of the very

1677
01:32:57,080 --> 01:33:00,479
Speaker 1: laws that they leave on the books that government for government,

1678
01:33:00,479 --> 01:33:05,360
Speaker 1: Republican and Democrat have been unwilling to enforce. You know,

1679
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:07,479
Speaker 1: I think we forget now that it was really the

1680
01:33:07,479 --> 01:33:11,960
Speaker 1: George W. Bush Karl Rove approach to be very soft

1681
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:15,519
Speaker 1: on immigration issues, to not do very much at all

1682
01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:19,639
Speaker 1: about illegal immigration, and a huge number of legal immigrants

1683
01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:22,880
Speaker 1: crossed during the Bush years. The Bushes were not good

1684
01:33:22,880 --> 01:33:24,679
Speaker 1: on the border, folks. This is something that you don't

1685
01:33:24,680 --> 01:33:27,680
Speaker 1: often hear about. Not good on the southern border, not

1686
01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:31,160
Speaker 1: good on border security, and it became this article of

1687
01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:33,759
Speaker 1: faith that for the GOP to be competitive in the future,

1688
01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:36,760
Speaker 1: they had to win over Hispanics. One reality, what they've

1689
01:33:36,800 --> 01:33:39,560
Speaker 1: done is just created a bigger constituency for the Democratic

1690
01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:45,320
Speaker 1: Party to leverage against Republicans on every issue, but specifically

1691
01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:47,360
Speaker 1: on the issue of immigration. I mean, you know, California

1692
01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:50,160
Speaker 1: is lost to the GOP forever or at least for

1693
01:33:50,880 --> 01:33:53,599
Speaker 1: you know, for for my lifetime, unless some dramatic things

1694
01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:58,400
Speaker 1: change because of a legal immigration. Other states will follow.

1695
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 1: This is a political conquest and the Democrats know that right.

1696
01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:08,320
Speaker 1: This is taking territory for the Democrat Party by changing

1697
01:34:08,320 --> 01:34:13,880
Speaker 1: the demographics through a process of lawlessness. A wall would

1698
01:34:13,880 --> 01:34:18,880
Speaker 1: re establish some degree of law and order on the border.

1699
01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:20,519
Speaker 1: And I think that it's worth I think it's worth

1700
01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:24,080
Speaker 1: a fight. But it's a gamble. We'll see if Republicans

1701
01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:26,559
Speaker 1: willing to roll the dice. Here's betting they won't agreet

1702
01:34:26,640 --> 01:34:31,960
Speaker 1: that liberty, truth, and great hair. The buck Sexton Show

1703
01:34:32,080 --> 01:34:39,920
Speaker 1: is back. I wanted to take a moment here to

1704
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:45,120
Speaker 1: say happy thirty years of first in class, first in

1705
01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:50,320
Speaker 1: the nation broadcasting to Mr Rush Limbaugh. I know he's uh,

1706
01:34:50,400 --> 01:34:52,719
Speaker 1: he's today at at the thirtieth year mark. I actually

1707
01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:57,519
Speaker 1: was uh fortuitous enough to hear that there was gonna

1708
01:34:57,560 --> 01:35:00,320
Speaker 1: be the President called. Then I saw on Twitter and

1709
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:03,839
Speaker 1: I've managed to turn it on and here President Trump

1710
01:35:03,880 --> 01:35:09,040
Speaker 1: calling into a Russia lum balls show and thirty years

1711
01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:12,880
Speaker 1: of broadcasting. That's that's pretty incredible. You know, I'm there

1712
01:35:12,880 --> 01:35:15,439
Speaker 1: are a few people in the business who I have

1713
01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:19,840
Speaker 1: to say I always have and and will owe a

1714
01:35:20,320 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 1: debt of gratitude too, and certainly, I've got to put

1715
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:28,360
Speaker 1: Glenn in there. Glenn back for hiring me, for preventing

1716
01:35:28,360 --> 01:35:31,799
Speaker 1: me from taking on a couple of hundred thousand dollars

1717
01:35:31,800 --> 01:35:34,240
Speaker 1: of loans to go to uh graduate school instead of

1718
01:35:34,320 --> 01:35:36,880
Speaker 1: hiring me as a as. I was hired as an

1719
01:35:36,920 --> 01:35:42,160
Speaker 1: assistant editor for technology and national security at the Blaze

1720
01:35:42,280 --> 01:35:48,599
Speaker 1: dot com. And that was seven years ago. Um so yeah,

1721
01:35:48,720 --> 01:35:55,160
Speaker 1: assistant editor for for no, assistant editor for intelligence and technology.

1722
01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:57,720
Speaker 1: So the intelligence part I got, but the technology part

1723
01:35:57,720 --> 01:36:00,280
Speaker 1: I did not. Anyway, Uh So Glenn hire me. That

1724
01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:03,720
Speaker 1: was a really obviously a milestone and I had never

1725
01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:06,519
Speaker 1: even thought of working in media really before that. But

1726
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:10,160
Speaker 1: there was among the biggest breaks I got in my

1727
01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:13,760
Speaker 1: in my career, um was when I got the call

1728
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:18,920
Speaker 1: from Russia Limball years ago now, gosh, it must have

1729
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:22,760
Speaker 1: been four four years ago, at least maybe five. I

1730
01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:25,240
Speaker 1: got the call from It was five, right, John, thank you?

1731
01:36:25,280 --> 01:36:29,240
Speaker 1: Five might have been six, I don't at least five

1732
01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:33,040
Speaker 1: years ago now. But I got the call from from

1733
01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:37,120
Speaker 1: Kid Carson, and it is the only time and you know,

1734
01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:39,720
Speaker 1: Kick Carson rest in peace, unfortunately lost the battle with

1735
01:36:40,160 --> 01:36:44,519
Speaker 1: cancer a couple of years back. But but Kid called

1736
01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:48,439
Speaker 1: me up, and I it was the only time I

1737
01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:51,439
Speaker 1: thought somebody was messing with me because he was like

1738
01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:55,240
Speaker 1: Kid Carson from the Rush Limball Show. How'd you like

1739
01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:57,800
Speaker 1: to fill in for Rush? I mean just just like that?

1740
01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:00,720
Speaker 1: I mean just know I was how like that fill

1741
01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:03,880
Speaker 1: in for Rush? You know, following the in the footsteps

1742
01:37:03,880 --> 01:37:07,599
Speaker 1: of Mr Sean Hannity for example, who also not only

1743
01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:09,920
Speaker 1: is the biggest you know, Sean is the biggest show

1744
01:37:10,400 --> 01:37:14,439
Speaker 1: not on Fox News, not on Cable news on cable

1745
01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:18,800
Speaker 1: last month, which is just you know, that's astonishing. So

1746
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:20,840
Speaker 1: congrats to Seawan and his whole team. I will say

1747
01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:23,800
Speaker 1: I miss I miss Sean and his and his team.

1748
01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:27,559
Speaker 1: That's the one of the downsides of being a swamp dweller,

1749
01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:29,280
Speaker 1: as I don't get to hang out in New York

1750
01:37:29,360 --> 01:37:31,760
Speaker 1: and see Sean and and and his He's got this

1751
01:37:31,840 --> 01:37:35,479
Speaker 1: amazing squad around him in New York City of really

1752
01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:37,200
Speaker 1: really great folks, and I don't get to hang out

1753
01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:40,800
Speaker 1: with him as much. So that's kind of a bummer anyway, Yeah, Sean.

1754
01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:43,759
Speaker 1: Sean actually told me that the first time he filled

1755
01:37:43,800 --> 01:37:47,600
Speaker 1: in for Rush, uh, the microphone fell down and like

1756
01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:50,000
Speaker 1: fell out of the holder at the very start of

1757
01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:53,320
Speaker 1: the show, which is so classic. That's stuff like that

1758
01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:54,680
Speaker 1: has happened to me too. One of the times I

1759
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:59,360
Speaker 1: filled in for Glenn, I remember, I I don't I

1760
01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:00,840
Speaker 1: don't know if John, but I don't think John was

1761
01:38:00,880 --> 01:38:03,200
Speaker 1: there for this one. Producer, John, I don't think you're

1762
01:38:03,479 --> 01:38:06,320
Speaker 1: you're running the board on this one. But I knocked

1763
01:38:06,320 --> 01:38:12,520
Speaker 1: over a venty Comi coffee Starbucks. Yeah, it was Sarah

1764
01:38:12,600 --> 01:38:15,240
Speaker 1: all over the place, man, I mean just and they

1765
01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,520
Speaker 1: had to run in the engineers because it was seeping

1766
01:38:17,720 --> 01:38:19,400
Speaker 1: over the top of the desk and it was gonna

1767
01:38:19,439 --> 01:38:22,120
Speaker 1: get all in a very expensive gear. Uh. You know,

1768
01:38:22,160 --> 01:38:24,719
Speaker 1: Glenn had a beautiful studio in New York. Obviously Soda

1769
01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:29,680
Speaker 1: Soda Russian Sean. But anyway, back to Mr Lindball here, Uh,

1770
01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:31,840
Speaker 1: there is no one else like him. I've never met

1771
01:38:31,920 --> 01:38:34,960
Speaker 1: Rush to this day. I've never talked to him, never

1772
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:39,840
Speaker 1: met him. Um, I know his team well, and you know,

1773
01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:42,400
Speaker 1: Rush letting me sit in for him was was a

1774
01:38:42,400 --> 01:38:46,479
Speaker 1: total game changer. It got me heard by folks across

1775
01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:49,080
Speaker 1: the country. I had somebody I did the Greg Gutfeld

1776
01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:51,559
Speaker 1: Show a couple of weeks ago, and I had people

1777
01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:54,320
Speaker 1: come up me outside and you know what. Two of

1778
01:38:54,360 --> 01:38:56,120
Speaker 1: them said, not just two of them just came with

1779
01:38:56,160 --> 01:38:58,880
Speaker 1: me said, I've really liked you ever since I heard

1780
01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:01,519
Speaker 1: you fill in for Rush, And yeah, I think I

1781
01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:03,599
Speaker 1: did a pretty good job feeling for Rush but also

1782
01:39:03,840 --> 01:39:08,240
Speaker 1: getting the l rush boat stamp of approval was it

1783
01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,719
Speaker 1: was like, it's the radio equivalent of getting accepted to

1784
01:39:11,920 --> 01:39:14,160
Speaker 1: Harvard early admission. I mean, it doesn't get any better

1785
01:39:14,200 --> 01:39:17,599
Speaker 1: than that. So, uh, Mr Rush, thank you so much.

1786
01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:20,640
Speaker 1: Happy thirty years of being the best. There'll never be

1787
01:39:20,680 --> 01:39:24,000
Speaker 1: anyone else like you, and you've changed a lot of

1788

Speaker 1: the street, our buddy, Aries writes in buck Very Powerful

1802
01:40:18,160 --> 01:40:20,640
Speaker 1: opening to the Monday podcast. Looking up the definition of

1803
01:40:20,640 --> 01:40:23,640
Speaker 1: treason in the dictionary, it says the crime of betraying

1804
01:40:23,760 --> 01:40:27,479
Speaker 1: one's country, especially by attempting to kill or overthrow the

1805
01:40:27,520 --> 01:40:31,800
Speaker 1: sovereign or government. So how is the attempt entities like

1806
01:40:31,800 --> 01:40:34,760
Speaker 1: the Koch brothers and Democrats were trying to overthrow the

1807
01:40:34,760 --> 01:40:38,200
Speaker 1: sovereign authority of American people by intentionally replacing us with

1808
01:40:38,240 --> 01:40:43,120
Speaker 1: four nationals not treason, one of the lesser of two evils,

1809
01:40:43,120 --> 01:40:45,000
Speaker 1: because they only want to replace us out of greed.

1810
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:48,559
Speaker 1: Uh and he wants Yeah, I mean, Aries, Look, I

1811
01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:51,360
Speaker 1: get it, I get it, my friend. It is a

1812
01:40:51,680 --> 01:40:53,800
Speaker 1: It is a frustration that there's so many who are

1813
01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:58,120
Speaker 1: working to overturn the election results one way or another.

1814
01:40:59,439 --> 01:41:03,240
Speaker 1: Bomb is next up here movie quote was from Tuesday

1815
01:41:03,320 --> 01:41:06,840
Speaker 1: night was die Hard again Shields High. All right, Bob,

1816
01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:09,639
Speaker 1: all right, you got me. That's right. It was die Hard.

1817
01:41:09,680 --> 01:41:11,439
Speaker 1: Although I think I've said this now on the air,

1818
01:41:11,479 --> 01:41:15,720
Speaker 1: but nonetheless you're correct. Uh, here we go. Next up

1819
01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:20,559
Speaker 1: we have William who's still on this taekwondo kick? Hey man,

1820
01:41:20,600 --> 01:41:22,800
Speaker 1: just watch some of the greatest UFC fights. You'll see

1821
01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:25,479
Speaker 1: folks getting high kick to the forehead. You'll see a

1822
01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:28,320
Speaker 1: champion wrestler and champion jiu jitsu guy jab and kick

1823
01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:32,400
Speaker 1: for five rounds. Stop this in taekwondo. It's another tool

1824
01:41:32,439 --> 01:41:35,320
Speaker 1: in the toolbag. I spend good money on. My kids

1825
01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:38,320
Speaker 1: learned taekwondo. One thing is for sure. They might lose

1826
01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:39,840
Speaker 1: a street fight, but it won't be because they were

1827
01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:42,880
Speaker 1: afraid to fight. In our school, we're taught fancy kicks

1828
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:46,000
Speaker 1: are for sparring. My kids learned elbows, knees, joint locks,

1829
01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:48,880
Speaker 1: and submission. Okay, William, I'm I don't know any taekwondo.

1830
01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:50,479
Speaker 1: I I take your word for it, buddy, I just

1831
01:41:50,520 --> 01:41:53,320
Speaker 1: read somebody. But let's be clear. Earlier the week, somebody

1832
01:41:53,320 --> 01:41:56,160
Speaker 1: else wrote in to say they don't think taekwondo is effective.

1833
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:59,200
Speaker 1: That's that's not on me. I'm just, you know, take

1834
01:41:59,280 --> 01:42:02,200
Speaker 1: that up with the other dude. I don't know. And

1835
01:42:02,200 --> 01:42:05,360
Speaker 1: then William writes, asked Joe Rogan of taekwondo is ineffective.

1836
01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:07,760
Speaker 1: I'd be happy to ask Joe Rogan that if you

1837
01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:10,559
Speaker 1: ever had the chance to sit down with him on

1838
01:42:10,600 --> 01:42:14,679
Speaker 1: his podcast, that'd be great. So there you have it. Virginia.

1839
01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:18,760
Speaker 1: Greetings Buck, longtime Democrat, woke up with Trump and I

1840
01:42:18,800 --> 01:42:22,080
Speaker 1: really enjoy your show. Well, thank you, Virginia. I really

1841
01:42:22,080 --> 01:42:24,679
Speaker 1: like having a former Democrats listening. I even like having

1842
01:42:24,680 --> 01:42:28,120
Speaker 1: current Democrats listening, because that's a listening to me. At

1843
01:42:28,160 --> 01:42:30,720
Speaker 1: least there's hope, you know, at least that maybe they

1844
01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:32,840
Speaker 1: they see where I'm coming from on some of this stuff,

1845
01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:37,360
Speaker 1: and they're willing to be They're willing to hear the

1846
01:42:37,360 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 1: other side, which is a good thing. Bill writes, check

1847
01:42:41,200 --> 01:42:44,360
Speaker 1: out Sabotan for some cool, newer pump up music. They

1848
01:42:44,400 --> 01:42:48,240
Speaker 1: make songs about historic battles with an upbeat, heavy metal feel.

1849
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:54,160
Speaker 1: I personally like winged Hussars shields high. Bill. I have

1850
01:42:54,600 --> 01:42:58,679
Speaker 1: never heard of Sabotan, so I will have to. I'll

1851
01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,200
Speaker 1: have to give that one a listen. That's that's new

1852
01:43:01,400 --> 01:43:05,840
Speaker 1: to me. Uh. Monica writes, where are My Detonators is

Speaker 1: know what guys? All right, all right, I get it.

1855
01:43:11,040 --> 01:43:13,759
Speaker 1: You've been hurt on this one. You now you want

1856
01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:17,840
Speaker 1: tougher action movie quotes. This is it's too low level

1857
01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,000
Speaker 1: for you when I work them into the conversation from

1858
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,280
Speaker 1: the most well known action movies. So I'm gonna start

1859
01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:25,479
Speaker 1: giving you some some curveballs, and you know what I'm

1860
01:43:25,479 --> 01:43:27,880
Speaker 1: gonna do to make it really the real deal. I'm

1861
01:43:27,880 --> 01:43:29,599
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna work in quotes. I'm not even gonna

1862
01:43:29,640 --> 01:43:32,040
Speaker 1: say that's an action movie quote. And we'll see who

1863
01:43:32,160 --> 01:43:34,920
Speaker 1: can get the secret action movie quote that I worked

1864
01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:37,240
Speaker 1: into the show and just say it at some point

1865
01:43:37,240 --> 01:43:39,639
Speaker 1: in this show. We'll see if you you guys want

1866
01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:41,320
Speaker 1: to strap on the big boy pants out there and

1867
01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:43,599
Speaker 1: team Bucklin on action movie quotes. You know you want

1868
01:43:43,600 --> 01:43:46,479
Speaker 1: to wear the belt? I always got confused. But in

1869
01:43:46,600 --> 01:43:49,120
Speaker 1: karate is the red belt of the black belt higher? Right?

1870
01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:51,640
Speaker 1: The red belt is right before black belt? Right? But

1871
01:43:51,680 --> 01:43:54,040
Speaker 1: then isn't there a black belt with gold stripes on it?

1872
01:43:54,160 --> 01:43:56,679
Speaker 1: Or you know all these different belts. I think Bruce

1873
01:43:56,720 --> 01:43:58,439
Speaker 1: Lee once said belts are for holding up your pants,

1874
01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:02,040

1879
01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:19,360
Speaker 1: good word. I think that's something that we could work,

1880
01:44:19,400 --> 01:44:23,680
Speaker 1: we could get going into the conversation. So thank you

1881
01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:28,519

Speaker 1: That would be a fun idea. You can tell me

1890
01:44:52,040 --> 01:44:54,799
Speaker 1: what you think and don't give me any guph because

1891
01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:58,920
Speaker 1: there's some you know, I don't know T Swift on

1892
01:44:58,960 --> 01:45:01,519
Speaker 1: there or something, and I try to mix it up, folks.

1893
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:06,559
Speaker 1: T Swift is very talented, very very talented. That's all

1894
01:45:06,600 --> 01:45:12,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Let's see what we got next here, Hold

1895
01:45:12,040 --> 01:45:15,240
Speaker 1: on a second, it's coming up. And the thing Jason

1896
01:45:16,360 --> 01:45:21,120
Speaker 1: Rights isn't amazing how the Party of Science and Evolution

1897
01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:25,120
Speaker 1: has completely abandoned both with both the issues of transgenderism

1898
01:45:25,120 --> 01:45:29,320
Speaker 1: and toxic male masculinity and the world of beta maile democrats.

1899
01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:35,360
Speaker 1: We see a complete rejection of survival of the fittest um. Interesting,

1900
01:45:35,640 --> 01:45:40,639
Speaker 1: I never thought of it that way. Um evolution, Yeah,

1901
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:45,360
Speaker 1: I mean, they they're they're always trying to redefine merit

1902
01:45:45,479 --> 01:45:48,439
Speaker 1: and excellence and and bend this. Look, this is there's

1903
01:45:48,479 --> 01:45:52,960
Speaker 1: an obsession on the left with collectivism and with equality.

1904
01:45:53,120 --> 01:45:56,280
Speaker 1: But those are the those are the the central beliefs

1905
01:45:56,280 --> 01:46:00,840
Speaker 1: I think of of leftism and atheism at some level too,

1906
01:46:00,880 --> 01:46:03,439
Speaker 1: But now I'm really getting down to the rabbit hole.

1907
01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:06,960
Speaker 1: But there's a central obsession with collectivism and equality, and

1908
01:46:07,080 --> 01:46:10,200
Speaker 1: equality is an impossible goal. I mean, there is no

1909
01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:14,760
Speaker 1: such thing as as absolute equality, and so context is

1910
01:46:14,760 --> 01:46:17,719
Speaker 1: always necessary for any dis question of a discussion of equality,

1911
01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:19,679
Speaker 1: just like there's no such thing as absolute liberty. Folks,

1912
01:46:19,720 --> 01:46:22,080
Speaker 1: we know that no one thinks that liberty means do

1913
01:46:22,120 --> 01:46:25,040
Speaker 1: whatever you want, whatever you want, right, Well, equality just

1914
01:46:25,080 --> 01:46:28,880
Speaker 1: means equality in the nation state context, in the in

1915
01:46:28,920 --> 01:46:32,640
Speaker 1: the context of a polity, of a political organization of

1916
01:46:32,720 --> 01:46:36,720
Speaker 1: human beings. It means equality before the law. That's really

1917
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:38,200
Speaker 1: the best that we can hope for. All these other

1918
01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:41,799
Speaker 1: efforts to make us the same are doomed to failure

1919
01:46:41,960 --> 01:46:44,360
Speaker 1: because we are not the same. You are trying to

1920
01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:49,640
Speaker 1: square a circle. It does not work. Uh. And in

1921
01:46:49,720 --> 01:46:52,559
Speaker 1: a life is unfair. This is something else that I

1922
01:46:52,560 --> 01:46:54,599
Speaker 1: think a lot of liberals need to need to hear.

1923
01:46:54,640 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 1: And well, I guess that they all they do is

1924
01:46:56,920 --> 01:46:58,639
Speaker 1: talk about alan fair it is, but it's never gonna

1925
01:46:58,640 --> 01:47:01,559
Speaker 1: not be unfair. I guess as part of the part

1926
01:47:01,560 --> 01:47:03,320
Speaker 1: of the discussion here, it's it's never going to be

1927
01:47:03,360 --> 01:47:07,920
Speaker 1: something that they can make go away. And so agitation

1928
01:47:08,200 --> 01:47:12,559
Speaker 1: under the guise of absolute equality is something you need

1929
01:47:12,560 --> 01:47:14,840
Speaker 1: to be on on guard against because it's it's not

1930
01:47:14,880 --> 01:47:18,160
Speaker 1: going to lead two good outcomes. H. So there you

1931
01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:21,040
Speaker 1: have it, Paul writes, Hey, buck love the show. I

1932
01:47:21,120 --> 01:47:25,480
Speaker 1: listened daily. Don't always agree, but that's okay. Well, Paul, absolutely,

1933
01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 1: you know. I don't expect people always agree. I feel

1934
01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:29,720
Speaker 1: you're honest and understand the world we have a deal

1935
01:47:29,720 --> 01:47:32,959
Speaker 1: with today. I'm not all right, nor am I a leftist.

1936
01:47:33,000 --> 01:47:36,880
Speaker 1: I guess I'm somewhere in between right leaning. Uh. And

1937
01:47:36,920 --> 01:47:38,880
Speaker 1: then he wrote, I have a question, And Paul, by

Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of research and reading every day before

1944
01:48:01,360 --> 01:48:03,559
Speaker 1: I come on air, and I try to make the

1945
01:48:03,560 --> 01:48:06,320
Speaker 1: best use of the time we have together. And and

1946
01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:08,240

Speaker 1: want to say Adam's over Jefferson any day, simplify from Sean.

1956
01:48:32,120 --> 01:48:36,280
Speaker 1: Interesting somebody was willing to say they actually prefer Adams

1957
01:48:36,320 --> 01:48:38,719
Speaker 1: over Jefferson. I feel like that's a rarity. I feel

1958
01:48:38,760 --> 01:48:41,960
Speaker 1: like you usually don't get that. People don't make that call.

1959
01:48:43,080 --> 01:48:50,560
Speaker 1: Michael right, Uh, you need to start using blaflom regularly. Huh,

1960
01:48:50,800 --> 01:48:54,280
Speaker 1: I've actually never heard of blaslom. I don't. I don't

1961
01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:58,920
Speaker 1: even I'm assuming that's like piffle or you know, it's malarkey.

1962
01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:02,759
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know anything about that, so I gotta

1963
01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:06,639
Speaker 1: look that word up, Donald buck Something not enough people

1964
01:49:06,680 --> 01:49:11,760
Speaker 1: point out about free healthcare. How many countries are there? Um,

1965
01:49:12,040 --> 01:49:15,280
Speaker 1: were you would die from an illness that might bankrupt

1966
01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:19,240
Speaker 1: you here, what would you rather be dead or in debt? Well,

1967
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:23,080
Speaker 1: you know, William, I'm sorry, Donald, Uh. This is one

1968
01:49:23,080 --> 01:49:25,800
Speaker 1: of these things where we can live in the real

1969
01:49:25,800 --> 01:49:27,519
Speaker 1: world that we can live in fantasy world. And the

1970
01:49:27,560 --> 01:49:32,280
Speaker 1: truth is that you're better off in America than pretty

1971
01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:34,800
Speaker 1: much any other country in the world if you have

1972
01:49:34,840 --> 01:49:38,240
Speaker 1: a life threatening illness. And that's I mean, maybe Switzerland.

1973
01:49:38,240 --> 01:49:39,880
Speaker 1: There's a few places people say, well, you know, they've

1974
01:49:39,880 --> 01:49:42,439
Speaker 1: got really advanced, But this is where you want to be.

1975
01:49:43,080 --> 01:49:47,599
Speaker 1: And in part it's because we have incredibly hard working

1976
01:49:47,880 --> 01:49:52,400
Speaker 1: and next level brilliant surgeons and doctors and people in

1977
01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:56,080
Speaker 1: the medical field who are well compensated folks. Yes, that's

1978
01:49:56,120 --> 01:49:58,479
Speaker 1: a part of this. I want hard surgeons to make

1979
01:49:58,520 --> 01:50:00,519
Speaker 1: a million, two million, three million doll hours here. I

1980
01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:03,240
Speaker 1: want them to make that because I want you know,

1981
01:50:03,280 --> 01:50:06,000
Speaker 1: when it's when it's you know, my relative that's getting

1982
01:50:06,040 --> 01:50:08,600
Speaker 1: open heart surgery. I don't want somebody who was you know,

1983
01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:11,240
Speaker 1: middle of the class in in in high school and

1984
01:50:11,560 --> 01:50:15,840
Speaker 1: third tier in grad school. No, I want somebody who

1985
01:50:15,960 --> 01:50:18,960
Speaker 1: is top of their game. And yeah, that's gonna be

1986
01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:22,439
Speaker 1: difficult to pay for. Sometimes it's gonna be costs literally

1987
01:50:22,479 --> 01:50:25,479
Speaker 1: costs associated with that. But isn't isn't that what you

1988
01:50:25,720 --> 01:50:29,080
Speaker 1: what's the alternative? It's all about incentives, folks. This is

1989
01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:32,920
Speaker 1: what collective is. The leftist don't understand is that individual

1990
01:50:33,560 --> 01:50:38,160
Speaker 1: interest self interest is a constant. It is a reality

1991
01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:40,559
Speaker 1: of our day to day lives. There's no way around it.

1992
01:50:40,600 --> 01:50:45,200
Speaker 1: And to try to either eliminate it from the way

1993
01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:47,960
Speaker 1: that you're setting up laws and and setting up society,

1994
01:50:48,840 --> 01:50:52,599
Speaker 1: or think that you can somehow just pretend it's not there,

1995
01:50:53,280 --> 01:50:56,760
Speaker 1: that that is again doomed to failure. And I think

1996
01:50:56,760 --> 01:50:58,360
Speaker 1: that when I bring this up, and I know it

1997
01:50:58,439 --> 01:51:01,719
Speaker 1: sounds maybe a little I don't know, as a territ

1998
01:51:01,840 --> 01:51:04,000
Speaker 1: or in the weeds or something, but this is that,

1999
01:51:04,200 --> 01:51:07,800
Speaker 1: this is what separates the mind of a conservative from

2000
01:51:07,800 --> 01:51:10,760
Speaker 1: the mind of a liberal These very basic concepts of

2001
01:51:10,800 --> 01:51:14,800
Speaker 1: the collective versus the individual, of you know, liberty versus equality.

2002
01:51:14,840 --> 01:51:17,599
Speaker 1: I mean, these are the this is why we approach

2003
01:51:17,640 --> 01:51:20,120
Speaker 1: the world differently than they do. So I think it

2004
01:51:20,160 --> 01:51:24,519
Speaker 1: is important to spend some time on all that. Thank
