1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,240 Speaker 1: Welcome into the third hour of the Clay Travis en 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. We're gonna be joined at bottom of 3 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: the hour by our friend, Senator Marsha Blackburn of the 4 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: Great State of Tennessee, which may be adding to its 5 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: numbers from some New Yorkers at Mont Donnie wins. We'll see. 6 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 1: I know Florida is going to Florida. Real estate price 7 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: is already sky high, probably gonna go up a little 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: bit more in some areas. It's only going to be 9 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: in a couple of places right where I live, and 10 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: also probably in the West Palm Beach del Rey Boca Corridor. 11 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 2: But we'll see. 12 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: We'll see. Maybe Kami Mon Donnie is not really that awful. 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: I think that's very unlikely, but it could be the case. 14 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,959 Speaker 1: We also have Trump just speaking a few moments ago. 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: As you know, there's a and the team pointed this 16 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: out to me, privately funded renovation, really a remodel, a 17 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: demo and remodel of the East wing of the White 18 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: House to accommodate a ballroom that some people are saying 19 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: going to be the most fabulous ballroom of all ballrooms. 20 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: It's going to be spectacular, I'm sure. And This is 21 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: President Trump speaking about the West Wings history and. 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 3: More. 23 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: Play thirty. 24 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 4: This is as you see over here, the Presidential Walk 25 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 4: of Fame. 26 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 2: And we had this long wall with half windows because 27 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: that used to be a swimming pool. On the other 28 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: side of the wall. That was the swimming. 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 4: Pool where Jackie would say, I hear women inside? Are 30 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 4: women inside? Quite a famous I'm not saying anything. 31 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: This was a part of a movie. 32 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 4: And the Secret Service said, no, ma'am, there's no women inside. 33 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 5: Ma'am. 34 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, ma'am. You're gonna have to move along. But 35 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: I hear women inside. 36 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 4: No, ma'am, you'll have to move along, ma'am. So that 37 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 4: was the famous swimming pool. Now it's even worse. It's 38 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 4: for the media. They covered the pull up. They covered 39 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 4: the pull up, and now it's for the media. And 40 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 4: I think we have a small representative group. I don't 41 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 4: think they allowed the rest of them. I can't believe it. 42 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 2: What happened. They're roll on the other side of the wall. 43 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,119 Speaker 2: Can you believe it? That is one hell? 44 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 6: So the story. Should I tell the story that Trump 45 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 6: is telling? I guess I have to tell the story 46 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 6: that Trump is telling. Buck this I think they do 47 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 6: these angry emails are buck Section's fault. So word is 48 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 6: from the White House historian crew that back in the 49 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 6: day JFK, as soon as Jackie Kennedy would leave the 50 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 6: White House would roll in girls and they would have 51 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 6: naked swimming parties in the White House swimming pool. So 52 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 6: if you think Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky was scandalous, 53 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 6: but what Trump is referencing is that they would have 54 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 6: skinny dipping sessions when AFK was president with girls that 55 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 6: they would they would bring in so that pools now 56 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 6: covered up and it's worth the prescoes. But that is 57 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 6: a accurate so far as I have heard a historical 58 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 6: rendition that Trump was referencing there. Probably did not expect 59 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 6: that that would be the opening of the Third Hour, 60 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 6: But that is what I was talking about. 61 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: JFK and Camelot and all that stuff is a pure 62 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: the same way that they went with Biden doesn't have dementia. 63 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 6: It was a pure fabrication. 64 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: Of the Democrat aligned media, and not just then, but 65 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: a continuation perpetuation because it created this Kennedy dynasty, so 66 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: called dynasty that led to someone like Ted Kennedy who 67 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: let a woman drown in the back of his car. Right, 68 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: these are the kind of people that the Kennedys brought 69 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: us in politics. And isn't there a wasn't there like 70 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: the red haired guy who was gonna be the you know, 71 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: the great hope of the Kennedys, And he gave some 72 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: like sweaty face speech after the you know what I'm 73 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: talking about, There was a young Kennedy another a member 74 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: of Congress. He was yeah, yeah, yeah, Patrick, Yes, that 75 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: sounds right, Yeah, I did. Basically, they're they're a Democrat 76 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: brand and they're protected as such. But if you actually 77 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: look at the conduct of JFK in the in the 78 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: Oval office in the White House, and as a person, 79 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: he was also a very sickly guy, needed a whole 80 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: bunch of of different controlled substances to get through the day. 81 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: This this idea that he was this strapping, handsome, you know, 82 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: all American guy and all this is all I'm just saying, 83 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: it's all a fabrication. Yes, this is all stuff that 84 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: was fed to people because there was no you know, 85 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: it's different. You didn't have the constant media cycle. You 86 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: didn't have so many people that have not just access 87 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: but are able to use their own methods of of 88 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: capturing information and everyone walks around. Now, think about it 89 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: this way. When Kennedy was actually President Clay, the press 90 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: had a fraction of the access and the ability to 91 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: create content that every single one of our listeners right 92 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: now does. 93 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 6: Yes, I mean no, the evolution. I mean look, and 94 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 6: it wasn't just Kennedy, right They pretended that FDR was 95 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 6: not in a wheelchair. I mean that that's maybe one 96 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 6: of the most staggering complicit related media aspects. They pretended 97 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 6: that that that FDR wasn't actually needing to be pushed 98 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 6: around in a wheelchair because because the press was asked 99 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 6: to do so. 100 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: And well, they also got away with with Woodrow Wilson's 101 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: wife running the White House, Edith. 102 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 6: Was basically the President of the United States, because he 103 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 6: had such a bad stroke. 104 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: I also think that that we didn't talk about it 105 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: that much much. I think that same dynamic factored in 106 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: with doctor I love that we all call our doctor 107 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: and just gosh, doctor Jill Biden. I think she recognized 108 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: that her frail husband meant that she was in a 109 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: more powerful role than a first lady certainly could or 110 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: should be generally, so that was a part rep But 111 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: let's get back to Trump here what he just said 112 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: about this or what he was just saying. He spoke 113 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: about the shutdown. All along there has been the things 114 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: that the shutdown has made possible as part of what 115 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: the White House can do. It's a great refutation of 116 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: the note King's rally. I might add, right, the government 117 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: is shut down. The king can't just open the government 118 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: because he's not a king, as we all know. It's 119 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: such a stupid rally, a stupid name. It's just not good. 120 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: But back to what Trump is saying about the shutdown. 121 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: He talked about Russ vaughtuh and here's what he says 122 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: about this individual and his cutting and the prioritization underway, 123 00:06:58,600 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 1: Play thirty two. 124 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 2: I will say this that we have Darth Vader. 125 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 4: You know Darth Vader, right, Darth Vader is a man 126 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 4: who I think he's sitting right. 127 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 2: Is that Darth stand up? Please? Darth Vader stand up? 128 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 2: Does everybody know this? Is they call him Darth Vader. 129 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 4: I call him a fine man, but he's cutting Democrat 130 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 4: priorities and they're never going to. 131 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: Get him back. 132 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 4: And they've caused us, and they've really allowed us to 133 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 4: do it. And by the way, thank you. You doing a 134 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 4: great job. I have to tell you so really a 135 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 4: great job. Because many of the things that they're cutting, 136 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 4: like the New York Project twenty billion dollars, we're cutting it. 137 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 4: They're not going to get it back. I mean, they're 138 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 4: not going to get a lot of things back. They 139 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 4: may not get back. Maybe we'll talk to him about it. 140 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 4: But they're losing the things that they wanted. But many 141 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 4: of the things that they wanted are things that we 142 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 4: don't want, the things that are just so bad for 143 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 4: our country, and. 144 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 2: We're cutting those things out. 145 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: Clay russ Watt is the head of O b Offics 146 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: Management and Budget, and they're able to get in there 147 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: with the scalpel and cut some of these government programs 148 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: because of the shutdown. So another component of this. 149 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 6: Not only that it is just not registering in any 150 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 6: way that the government shutdown still going on. I understand 151 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 6: that some of you out there are going to have 152 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 6: to get back pay if you're in military. Trump is 153 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 6: saying that he wants to make sure that everybody gets 154 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 6: paid again. They're going to have a press availability for 155 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 6: the Republican senators that are all at the White House 156 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 6: right now, and we're scheduled talking with Marsha Blackburn at 157 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 6: the bottom of the hour, so we'll hear what President 158 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 6: Trump said. But I just think that they are in 159 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 6: such incredible difficulty here because they didn't want to shut down. 160 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 6: They didn't want to bend the knee before the government protests, 161 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 6: before the no Kings protests. And now a part of 162 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 6: me thinks buck that they may think this is advantageous 163 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 6: for them on some small level in Virginia and New 164 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 6: Jersey and two close governor's races. Maybe it motivates a 165 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 6: little bit turnout. I don't know, but I think the 166 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 6: idea that there was going to be some mass rallying 167 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:20,119 Speaker 6: effect to the Democrat side has certainly not been reflected 168 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 6: in the polls, and it hasn't been reflected in the 169 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 6: reactions by and large, as most people have just kind 170 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 6: of said, yeah, there's not a lot to this. 171 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: Well here is since we're talking about the shutdown a 172 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: little bit. The latest explanation of this that we get 173 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: from Chuck Schumer, who is really it is the Schumer shutdown. 174 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy, more than any other, is responsible 175 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: for where this is. This is cut twelve hit it. 176 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 7: We enter another week of Donald Trump's government shutdown, and 177 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 7: Republicans seem happy not to work, happy not to negotiate, 178 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 7: happy to let healthcare premium spike for over twenty million 179 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 7: working middle class Americans. Our country is staring down the 180 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 7: barrel of a healthcare catastrophe, and Republicans will spend this 181 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 7: week either vacationing or holding pep rallies at the White House. 182 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 7: It's been over a month since the House of Representatives 183 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 7: even took a single roll call vote. That's shameful, that's derelict. 184 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 7: Government workers must work without getting paid. House Republicans get 185 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 7: paid without working. 186 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: And yet it's the humor shutdown. You can say whatever 187 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: he wants about it. Clay, I don't think that's gonna work. 188 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: I also think that the more they talk about healthcare, 189 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: hold on a second. Obamacare was supposed to make everything cheaper. 190 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: Why do we have to shovel billions and billions of 191 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: dollars into Obamacare to make it even temporarily seem solvent. 192 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 6: All of us are paying way more than we were 193 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 6: told we would ever have to pay for healthcare to 194 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 6: a large extent, because Obamacare has failed, and this idea 195 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 6: that your insurance was going to be cheaper, or you 196 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 6: were going to have more flexibility when it came to 197 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 6: your doctors. It has been proven to be I think 198 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 6: a complete and total lie, and so everybody out there 199 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 6: who is dealing and I think it's all of us 200 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 6: when you have to go to the doctor and you 201 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 6: get back your bill and you say, how in the 202 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 6: world could it possibly have cost this much? Or how 203 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 6: can my insurance premiums have risen to the level that 204 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 6: they have. Obamacare has actually made as many people argued 205 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 6: that would be the case, everything more expensive and worse 206 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 6: than it would be if we had never fiddled with 207 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 6: it at all, and in fact kind of ties in 208 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 6: with this. I can't believe I'm going to give him 209 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 6: credit here what John Stewart said about Bernie Sanders. The 210 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 6: Democrat solution is always subsidies, and when the government causes 211 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 6: endless funds to be spent, John Stewart's actually making sense here. 212 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 6: Prices rise, This was cut fifteen. 213 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 3: The Democratic solutions have never been to directly provides. It's 214 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 3: always been a subsidy. 215 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 2: The absolutely rital man. 216 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 3: But what happens is when the government promises endless funds 217 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 3: to insurance companies or private universities without any cost controls. 218 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 3: And Trump seems to understand this price has rised far 219 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 3: beyond the rate of inflation. And we've seen it in tuition, 220 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 3: and we've seen it in pharmaceutical and we've seen it 221 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: in healthcare. So my question is will democrats recognize the 222 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 3: poison pill that they've often placed into well intentioned policy. 223 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 6: They don't understand basic economics. And I think, to John 224 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 6: Stewart's credit, he's elucidating that democrats don't understand market based 225 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 6: policies and get all of their prescriptions wrong, which ends 226 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 6: up costing us all more. 227 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: Let's play the Bernie response to that. On the other 228 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: side of this. You can have Bernie Sanders, it's gonna 229 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: be like, but the more we spent comes from the 230 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 1: millionaires and the billion is it's it gonna be something 231 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: like that. There's gonna be some yes, non psychic I 232 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: like your argument. I think that is likely to be proven. Sure, yeah, 233 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I'm just guessing, but 234 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: economic illiterate Bernie Sanders is going to have some foolish 235 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: thing to say, and you'll stick around with us and 236 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: you'll hear it.

Let's find out cut sixteen. 270 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 9: We have got to make it simple.

Does you understand what that would 292 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: actually mean? 293 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 6: Yes, that's right. 294 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: How are you even going to get there? Second of all, 295 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: it would mean the destruction companies because people don't sit 296 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: on one hundred This isn't Scrooge McDuck and ductails swimming 297 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: in the vault of gold coins. People don't have one 298 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars in cash. 299 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 6: Ninety percent of money doesn't physically exist. And so I 300 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 6: wish that there had been an immediate pushback there from 301 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 6: John Stewart and say, okay, you always have this slogan, 302 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 6: everybody should pay their fair share. Billionaires often are paying, 303 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 6: like Elon Musk did fifty percent tax rates. When they 304 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 6: live in in California and they sell stock, what is 305 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 6: their fair share? Because over half of what you make 306 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 6: seems like way more than a fair share, particularly when 307 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 6: over half of Americans don't pay a single dollar in 308 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 6: income tax. So again, over half of all Americans don't 309 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 6: pay a dollar in federal income tax. They're also but 310 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 6: the tax is even worse than the tax rate on 311 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 6: everybody because inflation is really just a tax on everybody 312 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 6: that particularly hits those without assets that are getting inflated. 313 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 6: So this is why everything is feeling like it's more expensive, 314 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 6: and this is why you know, wages are not keeping up, 315 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 6: and all the challenges that a lot of people speak 316 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 6: about in general terms economically play worse. The government, the 317 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 6: federal government of which Bernie Sanders is a part in 318 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 6: the Senate, spends more than it takes in, even at 319 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 6: the current tax rates. 320 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 2: So this idea that if they took. 321 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: In more money they wouldn't also be adding on top 322 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: of that the debasement of our currency is absurd. They 323 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: would just take in more money and spend more money 324 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: than they're even taking in, because that's. 325 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: What they always do. 326 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 6: And there aren't enough billionaires to balance the budget, meaning 327 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 6: that eventually what they do to the richest trickles down 328 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 6: to everybody else as well. 329 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: Your home is your sanctuary, the place where your loved 330 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: one should feel safest. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case, 331 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: as break ins happen every twenty five seconds nationwide.

We're joined by Senator Marshall Blackburn. Now, 349 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn, thank you for making the time for Thank. 350 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: You're making time. 351 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 5: Oh I'm delighted to join you. Thank you so much. 352 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: Let's start with some shutdown talk, if we can, Senator, 353 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: the heck is going on here with these Democrats. They 354 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: had their little silly no Kings rallies, so they made 355 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,959 Speaker 1: it seem like they have something to say other than 356 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: Trump is bad, although that's really the same thing, Trump 357 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: is bad, No Kings, little childish whatever. But now the 358 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: government's been closed, I think twenty one days, what's going 359 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: to happen here? Are they going to blink? Are they 360 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: going to finally give up? What do you see going on? 361 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 5: Some of the Democrats are beginning to say, well, we 362 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 5: need to bring an end to this, and then you've 363 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 5: got Chuck Schumer saying, well, we did the No Kings 364 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 5: and now if we vote to reopen the government, it's 365 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 5: going to look like we are giving in and caving in. 366 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 5: And oh, By the way, the notices on the Obamacare 367 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 5: premiums are going to go out November first, and we 368 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 5: will to keep it shut to then. I think the 369 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 5: important thing that we need to remember is this, what 370 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 5: they are wanting to do is to supercharge Obamacare. You know, 371 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 5: in the beginning when they did Obamacare, they said this 372 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 5: was a step toward a single payer system, government run healthcare, 373 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 5: and this has been their goal. 374 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 10: So what we have to. 375 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 5: Do is realize that is their goal and we can't 376 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 5: let them continue with these enhance COVID credit premiums where 377 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 5: they took off the caps and anybody that was in 378 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 5: the marketplace got a subsidie. 379 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 6: We're talking to Senator Marsha Blackburn. I think based on 380 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 6: the background there, you may still be at the White House. 381 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 6: President Trump came out and spoke for some time. There's 382 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 6: also been a press conference with Senate Republicans there. What 383 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 6: did you learn today? What's the what should we know? 384 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 6: It looks like a beautiful day in Washington. Also about 385 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 6: the changes that President Trump has made to the White House. 386 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 5: You know, Clay, we were in the Rose Garden for 387 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 5: lunch and had a wonderful time with him. We're on 388 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 5: our way back to the Capitol right now to vote. 389 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 5: It was a very upbeat lunch. We were delighted to 390 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 5: have some time with the President to talk about what 391 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 5: is taking place as we are in this shutdown, to 392 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 5: talk about our concerns for making certain that the troops 393 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 5: are going to be tended to that women and infants 394 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 5: and children are going to get the benefits that they need, 395 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 5: and talk about the importance of getting the government reopened 396 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 5: so we can return to the appropriations process. And we've 397 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 5: done great work in the Senate. Our Appropriate Committee has 398 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 5: all our bills ready to go to the floor. Three 399 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 5: of them are already finished and are ready to go 400 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 5: into conference with the House, and regular order would be 401 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 5: a very good thing. Getting onto a Republican budget instead 402 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 5: of a Biden COVID era budget is something that's important. 403 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 5: Part of the silliness of this whole thing with the 404 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 5: Democrats is that they have already voted five times for 405 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 5: these funding levels, not once or twice, but five times, 406 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 5: and now they're saying, well, they're so full of hatred 407 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 5: for Donald Trump, they're trying to make excuses and then 408 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 5: not vote to reopen the government. 409 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn, Trump spoke a bit about Russ Vought going 410 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: after some spending that this administration thinks is graceful taxpayer 411 00:22:55,440 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: dollars not going to good effect. Can speaks with any 412 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: specificity to some of what those programs are, what is 413 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: able to be done in terms of cutting during this period, 414 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: because Trump has referred to it many times, and he 415 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 1: gave really a big high five to OMB Director Director 416 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: Vaught earlier today. 417 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 5: Yes he did, and Ruts was there at lunch with us. 418 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 5: There are programs, some of these programs that some of 419 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 5: the big blue states have wanted, some infrastructure projects that 420 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 5: many times conservatives have questioned the usefulness or appropriateness of 421 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 5: using taxpayer dollars for some of these programs. And indeed 422 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 5: there's the opportunity to cut and eliminate those There's the 423 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 5: opportunity to eliminate some of these jobs, like over at 424 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 5: the IRS. And I was seated with Secretary Besant at 425 00:23:55,280 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 5: the lunch. I'm glad he is overseeing the IRS. But 426 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 5: you know, that is where you can begin to cut 427 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 5: the fat out of some of these government programs. And 428 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 5: I commit to kind of being like Goge on steroids, 429 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 5: where you can say this is wasteful. The other is 430 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 5: wasteful government shutdowns. We have to be careful with the resources, 431 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 5: and so these programs and things that are not necessary 432 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 5: can be eliminated, and it is part of the president's 433 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 5: prerogative during a government shut down to remove those programs. 434 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 6: In the background, we can hear what sounds like an 435 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 6: emergency going off. 436 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 5: Well, actually it is the motorcade. You're going from the 437 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 5: side house back to the Capitol for the vote. So 438 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 5: you're getting this in real time. 439 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 6: Well, so, I was just going to say, it made 440 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 6: me think about the President calling out the National Guard 441 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 6: not only in Washington, DC, but also in Memphis. And 442 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 6: so you have unique opportunity to see it happen in 443 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 6: both places because you spend a lot of time in Washington, 444 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 6: d C. And also you have traveled and represent Memphis. 445 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 6: What have you heard from people about the impact the 446 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 6: safety do you see it? Do you feel it that 447 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 6: the President's call up of the National Guard and the 448 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 6: State Guard has had. 449 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 5: I'd have to tell you. In Memphis and Shelby County, 450 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 5: and I was there twice last week, people come up 451 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 5: to me and say thank you so much. They know 452 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 5: that I've worked very hard on this. Senator Haggarty has 453 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 5: worked very hard on this also, and one of the 454 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 5: things that I have put a lot of energy into 455 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 5: is drawing the attention of Cash Bettel and Pam Bondi 456 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 5: and the President to what we need in Shelby County 457 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 5: and Memphis. The Mayor of Memphis has done a great 458 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 5: job working with us. People are thrilled that Memphis is safe. 459 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 5: We're going to make certain that Memphis is the safest 460 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 5: city in the United States and that they lose this 461 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 5: moniker of having been the most dangerous for capita. We 462 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 5: also feel like with things going so well in Memphis 463 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 5: and the governor and the Guard and the Highway Patrol 464 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 5: and the TBI and thirteen federal agencies all working together, 465 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 5: that we can show what we did in Memphis and 466 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 5: that can be the model for fighting crime all across 467 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 5: the country and Memphis right at twelve hundred gang members 468 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 5: have been apprehended. Most of those gang kingpins have been apprehended. 469 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 5: You've got sixty missing children that have been rescued. You've 470 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 5: got two hundred and twenty seven illegal firearms that have 471 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,880 Speaker 5: been pulled off the streets. And that is what has 472 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 5: happened in the last couple of weeks. 473 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 2: Senator Blackbird, appreciate you being with us. Thanks so much, 474 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 2: you got it. 475 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 5: Take care back, Clay. 476 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: I think if the if the crime program bears the 477 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: kind of results that we're hoping it does, this could 478 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: be one of the big, one of the big wins 479 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: for the Trump for the Trump presidency, for the Trump administration, 480 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: because it will break through this idea that Democrat controlled 481 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: cities can just be lawless crime hell holes for fifty 482 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: years on end, with no one ever stopping to say, 483 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: maybe we should do something differently here. 484 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, And it reminds me of the border because we 485 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 6: heard for so long if Congress can act, then it 486 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 6: doesn't act, and how could we ever shut down the border, 487 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 6: and then Trump just shut down the border? And there 488 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 6: is an element I think when you see the crime 489 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 6: collapse in Washington, DC and in Memphis, that we've just 490 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 6: come to tolerate this and we don't have to. And yes, 491 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 6: why would the precedent that's brought to bear and both 492 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 6: of those cities not also be used other places? It 493 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 6: seems like this could be really potentially transformative in a 494 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 6: positive way for everybody of all different backgrounds. Since as 495 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 6: we have talked about on this program for a long time. 496 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 6: No one hates murder more than you, and I look. 497 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 6: NBA's returning tonight.

The company I work for, 548 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 11: nice some guy within roughly a week of when Charlie 549 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 11: Kirk got killed was terminated from the company. My boss 550 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 11: pulls us all into a quick impromptu conference call. He goes, 551 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 11: please be careful what you say on social media, and 552 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 11: he specifically mentioned Facebook. I'm like, what was. 553 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 12: Said, who said it? 554 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 11: And we all know who said it, but we don't 555 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,719 Speaker 11: know what was said. So I'm all about free speech, 556 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 11: but consequences are coming, guys. 557 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, no doubt. Look, I mean I think everybody has 558 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 6: to be aware. In fact, I think this is California. 559 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 6: We talked about the Chicago public school teacher, but this 560 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 6: is going viral right now. Another teacher. This is audio, 561 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 6: but the video is out there of a public school 562 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 6: teacher celebrating Charlie kirk assassination. 563 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 10: This is what. 564 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 6: You can hear it a little bit there. They're chanting 565 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 6: Charlie Kirk in favor of him. Those are kids and 566 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 6: this teacher is chanting is dead, is dead, celebrating Crazy 567 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 6: Tom in Florida fire away. 568 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 12: For forty years, and the stuff I saw during that 569 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 12: period of time was incredible. I know one thing. When 570 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 12: a person reaches the rock bottom, they go one of 571 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 12: two ways. They get help and survive, they keep going 572 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 12: and they die. New York is in the same situation. 573 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 12: They've just about hit rock bottom, and if they put 574 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 12: mom Donnie in, they are going to hit rock bottom. 575 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 12: And they can only go one of two ways. They 576 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 12: can start voting differently and get help for themselves. They 577 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 12: can collapse and hopefully for them, a Democrat will get 578 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 12: elected and bail them out, because that's their only hope 579 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 12: to These morons keep voting the same way all the time, 580 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 12: and they can fiction and regret it, but I kind 581 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 12: of hope it sort of happens. They need to get 582 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 12: there and get this help. 583 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 6: Buck, you live through it. Things are just not bad 584 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 6: enough in New York City for somebody like Giuliani to 585 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 6: come in and be the savior. 586 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: Well, this is this is where you when you look 587 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: at the historical comparisons. When Giuliani came in, I should 588 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: say after a few years of Dinkins. When Guliani came in, 589 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: you had an incredibly high murder rate, yes, right, and 590 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: so that was even the communists at some point are 591 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: saying there are too many people being shot on the 592 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 1: streets of New York. And when I say too many, 593 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: over two thousand. Yeah, okay, murders. So you got to 594 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 1: think how many thousands of people were shot on top 595 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: of that. I mean, it was really out of control. 596 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: New York now has, for a city of its size, 597 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,959 Speaker 1: a pretty low murder rate, actually American you know system 598 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: not obviously, you know, Taiwanese or something where they have 599 00:33:56,400 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: almost no murders, very low murder rate. And so the 600 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: stuff that we're really talking about is quality of life issues, 601 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, trash on the streets, illegals piling in, taking 602 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 1: over whole hotels, people acting like maniacs on the subway, 603 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: and a lot of libs will tell themselves, you know, 604 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: that's a price other people are going to pay. It 605 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: makes me feel good about myselves. While the drivers putting 606 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: up the partition on the way to the Hamptons to 607 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 1: vote for this stuff. And a lot of a lot 608 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: of left wingers will even tell themselves no matter what happens, 609 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: Clay Real Mom Donnism has never been tried. They these 610 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 1: people don't learn their lessons. 611 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 6: It is the point Positive News will take a couple 612 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 6: more year calls to finish the show. There are a 613 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 6: lot of polls rolling in as we get close to 614 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 6: Virginia and New Jersey elections. Jason Miaraz, who we had 615 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 6: on last week, I believe or the week before last, 616 00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 6: the Virginia Attorney general candidate is surging. And Jay Jones, 617 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 6: who said in text messages, I hope these Republicans' kids die. 618 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 2: We may have seen. 619 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 6: Something where normal people say, ah, that's maybe a bit 620 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 6: too far, as his chances are collapsing. And one thing 621 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,279 Speaker 6: one wonders, as they called in Barack Obama to campaign, 622 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 6: whether that is also starting to have an impact on 623 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 6: the governor's race, because Spanberger has not called for Jay 624 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 6: Jones to drop out yet. Dave and Gilminton, New Hampshire, Dave, 625 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 6: what you got for us? 626 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 10: I wanted to make a comment about the New York's 627 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 10: Post assertion that if Slee were to drop out, he 628 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 10: could save New York City from Mondami by increasing Cuomo's 629 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 10: chances of winning the mayoral race. Understand this. Cuomo's political 630 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,240 Speaker 10: aspirations do not end with being mayor of New York City. 631 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 10: He wants to use it as a springboard to be 632 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 10: the party nominee for president in twenty twenty eight. And 633 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 10: why would Republicans want to do anything to help him 634 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 10: do that because he'll be touted as the moderate Democrat. 635 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 10: I'm with Clay, New York City needs to suffer the 636 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 10: pain of electing a communist so that the rest of 637 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 10: the country can see the Democrats had a chance to 638 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 10: move to the center after Trump one in twenty four 639 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 10: and instead they're moving further left. And what they're doing 640 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 10: in New York City with Mom Damie is what they 641 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 10: want to do for the rest of the country. To 642 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 10: the rest of the country. Once that realization is made, 643 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 10: then our constitutional republic is safe for the foreseeable future. 644 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 1: We have such excellent, excellent callers, you know, fantastic.
