1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to the Wednesday edition of The Clay 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,239 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Sexton Show. I'm just gonna start with 3 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: some good news today, players Trump sharing this one out. 4 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: S and P five hundred just hit seven thousand for 5 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: the first time ever. Y all Caps America is back. 6 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: So it's a good thing. Some of you might say, well, 7 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't have stocks that I'm invested in, you have 8 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: a retirement account, you work for a company that has 9 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: public shares. I mean this actually is an indicator of 10 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: pretty broad sentiment, and at least in some sectors economic health. 11 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: Price is still too high. Yes, I know the prices 12 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: would be even worse. It's stock market was down twenty percent. 13 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: I can tell you that as well, meaning you'd have 14 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: a much harder time affording the prices if the economy 15 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: was in a tailspin from a dropping market. 16 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 2: So it is good news. I like to start with 17 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: the good. 18 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: News, which is that we've got the first time ever 19 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: seven thousand on the S and P five hundred. We've 20 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: got the White House weighing in, and now other places, 21 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: as exactly promised to you on this show, other places 22 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: starting to get involved and see the early stages of 23 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: these anti ice operations, these sabotage operations. White House have 24 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: spoken about this one. We shall get into that. Also, 25 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: Trump talking pretty tough game about Iran, and we've got 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: some updates on that situation, plus Venezuela, so we will get. 27 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 3: Into all all of that. 28 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: We've also got some great guests joining today, Mark Halpern, 29 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: who's the editor in chief of two Way and he's 30 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: a host in his own right. You guys all, I'm 31 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: sure have seen his political analysis. What was his book play? 32 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: The most famous one that he did was he the 33 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: game Change? He was Game Change. 34 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 4: Really, I think I'm gonna make sure that that's correct 35 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 4: because I don't want him by the time we have 36 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 4: him on. We got to make sure we get that right. 37 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 4: But I believe that he was one of the co authors. Yeah, 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 4: he was a co author with Hilman. Okay, yes, yes, 39 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 4: so that's right. 40 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: And then we've got two thirty Joe Lavorna, who is 41 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: a counselor to the Treasury Sector. Look, there's a big 42 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: summit going on to DC Klan. Now we are going 43 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: to be there, but there's some travel issues with you know, 44 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: the snow apocalypse that is hitting Clay. It's even getting 45 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: a little chili down here in South Florida. Some of 46 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: you will note I am wearing a sweatshirt, not just 47 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: because it is indeed Cozy Earth, one of our fabulous sponsors, 48 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: and it is the most comfortable sweatshirt imaginable, but because 49 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: it is a little chili here and it's gonna get chillier. 50 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: So I understand that places are going through a bit 51 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 1: of a deep freeze right now. It is dropping into 52 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: the sixties. It might even hit the fifties in South Florida. 53 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 3: It's rough. 54 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 4: I will say this, by the way, on the weather thing, 55 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 4: it is actually far worse than I realized in Nashville 56 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 4: all the way down to Mississippi. 57 00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 3: I don't know if you've seen the footage. 58 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 4: Buck they basically have shut down several interstates and they 59 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 4: are impassable in Mississippi right now. And last night I 60 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 4: went to the Kentucky Vanderbilt basketball game. Vanderbilt University is 61 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 4: shut down, which never happens, and I was blown away 62 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 4: by how awful. This was the first time I've left 63 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 4: my house since the storm hit. I was blown away 64 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 4: by how awful the roads are and how significant the 65 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 4: damage is from this winter storm. That came through the 66 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 4: ice in particular, So Nashville is hammered all the way 67 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: down into Mississippi. There's about a two hundred mile stretch, 68 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 4: I would say, Buck where it is utterly devastating in 69 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 4: terms of the number of people without power, the number 70 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 4: of trees down, the amount of significant damage. So we're 71 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 4: thinking about all you guys out there that are from 72 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 4: Nashville basically south in this stretch dealing with a truly 73 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: awful scenario. And yes, Buck pointed out, we were going 74 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 4: to be in Washington, d C. With the President and 75 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 4: with the Treasury Secretary today at these Trumpet account announcements, 76 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 4: but we couldn't get up there, and so we had 77 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 4: all sorts of issues with travel, and so we're going 78 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 4: to have we'll talk about what was going to happen there. 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 4: I'm sure we'll be up in DC again soon. But 80 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 4: that is taking place right now, and Marco Rubio is 81 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 4: testifying under oath on Capitol Hill about Venezuela, Cuba, Iran 82 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 4: and everything else he's dealing with as Secretary of State. 83 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: Now let's take things back into the center of the 84 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: political storm, and that is the situation in Minneapolis Ice. 85 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: What's going on there. And our friend Will Caine, who 86 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: had Trump on yesterday, asked the President about this, because 87 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: what's happened now is there's been a switch up in 88 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: some of the personnel. Tom Holman has been sent to Minnesota, 89 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,799 Speaker 1: and Christine Nome is coming under a lot of criticism, 90 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure. As I said, she said the 91 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: wrong stuff after the shooting of pretty So that was 92 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: not a good it was not a good moment in messaging. 93 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: She just she messed that up. President still says he 94 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: has confidence in her, though, Uh the anyway, I won't 95 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: get into more of that for now. I'll just say 96 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: Tom Holman, I think, is the guy who should have 97 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: been running this op and should be running all these 98 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: ice ops the whole time. And I don't know why 99 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: anybody would think otherwise. But here we are. Uh so 100 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: Tom is going there, and here is Trump speaking specifically 101 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: about this. This is cut twelve hit it. 102 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,679 Speaker 5: The message is out that Tom Homan is in, Commander 103 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 5: Bovino is supposedly leaving Minneapolis along with some CBP agents. 104 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 5: Is this a pullback. 105 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 6: I don't think it's a pullback. It's a little bit 106 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 6: of a change. Everybody in this room that has a business. 107 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 6: You know, you make little changes. 108 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 5: You know. 109 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 6: Bavino's very good, but he's a pretty out there kind 110 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 6: of a guy. And in some cases it's good. Maybe 111 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 6: it wasn't good here, But you have to understand one. 112 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 6: I watched some of the people that I've been watching 113 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 6: over the last few weeks. These are paid insurrectionists. These 114 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 6: are paid agitators. These people aren't normal like og that 115 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 6: you know, they're incensed about anything. How do you get 116 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 6: incensed when you go into a state and you're taking 117 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 6: criminals out? 118 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 1: Now, Clay, I am still I am still hopeful, and 119 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: I think it is probably the case that this is 120 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: a shift in tactics, but not an abandonment of enforcement. 121 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 3: But I will get. 122 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: Into what we're already seeing. And I've been saying this 123 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: ever since this incident happened. You're seeing more noise in 124 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: New York, more of the organized sabotage operation stuff popping up. 125 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: You're seeing other places like Philadelphia, they're da threatening to 126 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: arrest ice officers. The madness can spread if it is 127 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: not contained in Minneapolis. 128 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 3: What do you see? That's the concern. 129 00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 4: And I you know this, but I think think everybody 130 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 4: out there is becoming aware if resistance works in Minneapolis, 131 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 4: then they will copy it everywhere else. And the ultimate 132 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 4: challenge that we're going to get into here, and it 133 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 4: is a challenge of wills to a large extent, is 134 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 4: it's very easy to start, as the Trump administration did, 135 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 4: with deporting people who have violent criminal records and people 136 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 4: who have broken our law. It's a no brainer that 137 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 4: they should be out of the country. But at some point, 138 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 4: if there are twenty million illegals, there are not twenty 139 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 4: million people who have committed violent crimes. So if you 140 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: want to try to return the nation to some semblance 141 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 4: of lawfulness when it comes to our immigration policy, then 142 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 4: you're going to have to start to deport people who 143 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 4: are not necessarily violent criminals, and that becomes a political 144 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 4: challenge now, I think buck in general, the number of 145 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 4: people that have decided to leave is fairly substantial, and 146 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 4: it may well be the case that the best part 147 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 4: of the ice deportation policies is just letting people know, hey, 148 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 4: the salad days are over. You can't rely on the 149 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 4: American taxpayer to be giving you free hotel rooms in 150 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 4: New York City, free Wi Fi, free meals like that 151 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 4: is utterly absurd and ridiculous. And I like to think 152 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 4: that we've turned a page at least a little bit 153 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 4: on that. And the data reflects that as many people 154 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 4: as we have been able to deport, that there are 155 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 4: millions more that are voluntarily leaving because they're recognizing that 156 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 4: the situation's back home or not necessarily better or getting 157 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 4: better relative to what they have here. The challenge is, 158 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: I think Democrats are playing the long game here, and 159 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 4: this is. 160 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: What we told you. 161 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 4: Once you let the twenty million in, it becomes almost 162 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 4: impossible to get the twenty million out, and. 163 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 3: You would take sustained. 164 00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 4: Multi numbers of presidential Republicans to this for years and 165 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 4: years to come, and I think they know it's not 166 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 4: going to happen there. 167 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 2: There is some precedent for this. 168 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: The Eisenhower administration got over a million illegals deported back 169 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: in forget what year of Eisenhower's term, but you're going 170 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: back seventy years, okay, and you have massive deportation operation 171 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: that occurred. Then there's also clay, the self deportations that occurs. 172 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: A big part of this needs to become a workplace 173 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: enforcement too, which that's then you get all of a sudden, 174 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: Republicans get a little a little weak in the knees, 175 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: or a lot of Republican leadership starts to go, well, you. 176 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 7: Know, we don't want to punish the job creators, like well, 177 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 7: you are if you're employing a large number of illegals 178 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 7: who are going to be reliant on. 179 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:55,119 Speaker 1: Welfare and social services provided by the taxpayer. And also, 180 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: there is something about being American and American ness that 181 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: should not just be conferred upon people by virtue of 182 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: a physical status that is illegal in the first place. 183 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: There is a principle at work here, but you need 184 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: to do workplace enforcement. Trump also that I wanted to 185 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: note this because we do get your calls and emails 186 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: about this or your talkbacks on how this seems to 187 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: be detracting or distracting from the fraud in Minneapolis. Trump 188 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: is saying, I promise you we're still on that. If 189 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: this is the game they're playing at some level, it's 190 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: not going to work. This is from that Will Caine 191 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: interview on Fox Again. This is fourteen hit. 192 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 8: It. 193 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 5: This whole Minnesota thing, it started because of a focus 194 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 5: on fraud. It started because of illegal immigration and welfare fraud. 195 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 3: The question is. 196 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 5: Will there be accountability in Minnesota and beyond other states Californa. 197 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 6: Minnesota is one state if you look at California, but 198 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 6: so in Minnesota they think it's nineteen billion dollars, if 199 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 6: they think it's nineteen billion, triple it or quadruplein. And 200 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 6: if we catch a lot of this fraud and I 201 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 6: felt it for a long time, but now we know 202 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 6: what's happening and the entries, yet there will be accountability. 203 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: Clay, there will be accountability. I hope that is in 204 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: fact the case. 205 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 4: The best tweet I've seen on this is, have you 206 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 4: heard anybody complaining that their kids have lost childcare since 207 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 4: the money was frozen for Minneapolis childcare? I mean, all 208 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 4: of you out there that are parents and have your 209 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 4: kids in daycare in any way, I bet that's a 210 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 4: huge percentage of people that listen to us on a 211 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 4: regular basis. If your childcare was interrupted, it would be 212 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 4: a major issue. Isn't it really interesting that none of 213 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 4: these Somali parents have been up in arms over the 214 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 4: fact that their kids They're not able to get their 215 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 4: kids into childcare and these subsidies are not working for them. 216 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 4: It shows you how much fraud was going on. These 217 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 4: people were never in role in schools. They were all 218 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 4: getting kickbacks. They created one of the largest frauds related 219 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 4: to childcare that we've ever seen. And when it's actually stopped, 220 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 4: there is zero pushback from people saying, wait a minute, 221 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 4: my kids were legitimately enrolled. I've got jobs, I need 222 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 4: help with the kids and the childcare. Now we can 223 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 4: get into what the role of the federal government or 224 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 4: state government should be when it comes to childcare in general. 225 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 4: That is I think a really significant situation there, buck 226 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 4: because people don't get to count if you're a mom, 227 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 4: or you're a dad, or your grandma or you're a 228 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 4: grandpa and you're providing childcare for your family, you don't 229 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 4: get to huge, massive discounts in earnings, right like you 230 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 4: don't get to count that as a fifty thousand dollars 231 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 4: a year job. I think there's a lot of different 232 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 4: ways that tax code could support parents and grandparents and 233 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 4: family members actually providing childcare for family, which happens all 234 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 4: over the country and as a huge, huge part of 235 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 4: the safety net for families. But yeah, again, just have 236 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 4: you seen anybody complaining in Minneapolis about this. It's just 237 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 4: indicative of to what extent it is a fraud. And 238 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 4: by the way, this event that's going on right now, 239 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 4: which we'll get into the so called Trump accounts, I 240 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 4: actually think this is a great idea, Buck, And we 241 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 4: talk a lot about financial literacy on this program, and 242 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 4: we can get into this somewhat during the course of 243 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 4: the program. So few kids out there have financial knowledge 244 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 4: or understand the concept of compound interest. That is, if 245 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 4: you start with one thousand dollars invested when you're really young, 246 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 4: and you just allow that money to continue to grow, 247 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 4: it is transformative by the time you get to twenty 248 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 4: or thirty years old. 249 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm glad you're admitting this, because I believe you were 250 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: giving me a ba humbug and making fun of me 251 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: for being the uncle who gives his nieces and nephews 252 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: who are toddlers or babies instead of useless you know, 253 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: like butterfly side or something. I give them money in 254 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: long term, either you know, stock accounts or for the 255 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: purposes of college. 256 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 3: Because that is that is very very good of you. 257 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 4: I would suggest maybe Uncle Buck could also give a 258 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 4: toy to a kid in addition to a I don't 259 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 4: think that's one or the other. I think I think 260 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 4: you probably could get a you know, Tonka truck for 261 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 4: a kid and also give him some some help on 262 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 4: his future college. But I do think this compound interest 263 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 4: idea is one of the least understood aspects and what 264 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 4: it does is and we'll have some fun with this, 265 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 4: because I do think it's important. But it teaches you 266 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 4: the values and power of individual responsibility from a financial perspective, 267 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 4: and playing the long game as opposed to constantly trying 268 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 4: to scramble in the short game. We'll get into that 269 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 4: in the meantime, two gifts are better than one when 270 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 4: it comes to Valentine's Day, and it's going to be 271 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 4: here before you know it, so don't mess this up. 272 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 4: Right now, Cozy Earth has a buy one, get one 273 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 4: free deal on their bamboo fabric pajama set.

She just went scorched earth on everyone 295 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 4: who comes after President Trump and says she is his 296 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 4: number one fan. 297 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 3: That is cut twenty nine. 298 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 8: I am probably the President's number one fan and that's 299 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 8: not going to change.

Okay. 305 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 8: He has a lot of force behind him and God 306 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 8: is protecting him. Amen. 307 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 4: Buck, some of this these funny movies, I would not 308 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 4: have foreseen happening. Ever, she's one of the most famous 309 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 4: musicians in the world, I think it's fair to say. 310 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 4: And so that just happened a few minutes ago in 311 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 4: DC at the Treasury event. I would not have There's 312 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 4: a lot of things that you have said there that 313 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 4: you would not necessarily have anticipated would be in the 314 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 4: same sentence. 315 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,120 Speaker 1: And yet here we are. Trump is, in so many 316 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: ways Clay broadening the tents. Yes, but unfortunately Biden broadened 317 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: the tent to include ten million people who aren't supposed 318 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,199 Speaker 1: to be here in the first place.

He into Clay Anne Buck. So Alex pretty 342 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 1: not pretty pretty? 343 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 3: I mean it's not do you know what I mean? 344 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 3: I've been told now his name. 345 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: Is pretty Although although I do have to point out 346 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: something that this reminded me of that I don't think 347 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: we got to yesterday. This gentle this man was killed. 348 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: We all know that he was held down, he was 349 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: shot Ice officers. He's one of these involved in these 350 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 1: sabotage operations. But now it looks like two ice officers 351 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: shot him. It's looking more like they they reacted to 352 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: a threat that was not really not really the threat 353 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: that was there, and they may have overreacted. And this 354 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: is it's still being investigated. Facts are still coming out. 355 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: But right now, you know, it's if he didn't have 356 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: the gun on his person and they shot him, that's 357 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: a very that's a very tough meaning. He has been 358 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: disarmed and then he gets shot. That's a very tough 359 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: situation to say. Law enforcement act. Now there's acting in 360 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: good faith and making a mistake. Those are things that 361 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 1: can be also the case. Right so again, if somebody 362 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: reaches behind the cop says drop it, drop and drop it, 363 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: and they make a furtive movement, they call it, by 364 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: the way, spend for a cell phone. But it's dark 365 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: and you don't see and you shoot. The cop isn't 366 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 1: going to go to prison for that, but the person 367 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: who got shot is probably gonna get like a ten 368 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: million dollars, you know, for their families. And I think 369 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 1: that's where this is likely heading. And I've thought that 370 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 1: early on in this process, unlike there were in a 371 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: good situation, although she may get a whole lot of 372 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: money too, just because of the jurisdiction this is in. 373 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: But I think this may be a tragedy that results 374 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: in a large judgment against the federal government here in 375 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: favor of the pretty family. Yes, Clay, there is also 376 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 1: and you may have said this, I was reading to 377 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: try to get updated because this news is breaking right now. 378 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: Now there is also now the report that two people, yes, 379 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: fired guns, right so we had initially said we thought 380 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: it was one person. I think it gets harder to explain, 381 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: to be fair, when two different guys are firing weapons 382 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: in the wake of this shooting, as the. 383 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 3: You'll have law enforcement. 384 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure that it will be lining up in a 385 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 1: second here to call in to tell us something which 386 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 1: is true, but which I'll just cut to the chase. Oftentimes, Clay, 387 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: if you're in a situation like that, if one person 388 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: draws and shoots, there's usually a castcade effect that or 389 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: often I should say a cast Gate effect where someone goes, 390 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, you know we're in a threat situation. 391 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: They pull out to our shooting. Two Again, this does 392 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: not this does not mean that it was a clean shoot. 393 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: I want to be clear about that. It just means 394 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 1: that that is what looks like it may have happened. 395 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: This is what the left wanted, which is really sick 396 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: and twisted. They wanted there to be a murky er. 397 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: They tried with Renee Good. But think about this. Renee 398 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: Good gets killed in the situation and you're this guy pretty, Now. 399 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 2: You're gonna go out there and do that. 400 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: Think about the mindset here and why I mentioned the 401 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 1: pretty versus pretty thing for a second is MSNBC. I 402 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: couldn't believe this, but it's real because there's been comparison 403 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: side by side. Clay of the MSNBC used AI or 404 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: it was sharing an AI doctored image that made this guy, 405 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say, look more handsome, 406 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: because then he'd be a more appealing martyr. They can't 407 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: make him a black guy, they can't make him a 408 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: minority woman or you know, they can't do any of that. 409 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: So what they did do is let's just make him 410 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: a whole lot more handsome so that it will upset. 411 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: But this goes to the point about emotional manipulation. It's 412 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: meant to upset people more. But it's not about the fact. 413 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 1: It's not about the ethics of this. It's about outrage. Clay, 414 00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: I mean MSNBC this or ms now whatever. The fact 415 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: that they did this is outrageous. Here's Trump, by the way, 416 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: speaking about this. Thirteen. We didn't do this one yet, 417 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: did I was about to do it? No, cut thirteen 418 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: hit this one. 419 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 6: I think the whole thing is terrible. I don't like 420 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 6: the fact that he was carrying a gun that was 421 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 6: fully loaded and he had two magazines with him, and 422 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 6: it's pretty unusual. But nobody knows when they saw the gun, 423 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 6: how they saw the gun, everything else. At the bottom line, 424 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 6: it was terrible. 425 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 2: It is a tragedy for sure. 426 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: Trump's right about that, and I think Trump is completely 427 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: correct also here and saying, and we got to see 428 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: when did they see the gun? 429 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 2: Where was the gun? Everyone keeps saying, we have video. 430 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 2: The video, it's. 431 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: Kind of tough to see because of all the people 432 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: around him, and it's very You're talking about very specific things, 433 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: very specific timing, and it happens really fast, Clay. But 434 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: now we have the left feeling like the narrative is 435 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: on their side and ascended. And I worry that this 436 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 1: is going to result and not just a tactical change, 437 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: but a pullback. And I can already point to other 438 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 1: places where they're lining up to be the next Minneapolis, 439 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: no doubt. 440 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:15,479 Speaker 4: And again, the fallout from this shooting, We'll see what 441 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 4: ends up happening, but I think more and more is 442 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 4: going to look like these guys are imperiled in terms 443 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 4: of potential charges being brought against them. It doesn't change, however, 444 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 4: the fact that what you just said is very true. 445 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 3: This is the goal of protest. 446 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 4: They said in July that the way to draw attention 447 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 4: to the Ice protest, the way to help to diminish 448 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 4: the power of Ice and the deportations, was to get 449 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 4: people shot. And they got two people shot in Minneapolis. 450 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 4: And the truth of the matter is that that changes 451 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 4: the narrative from their perspective. So this isn't an accident 452 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 4: of the protest. This is what was intended to occur, 453 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 4: and when it does happen, they want to celebrate it happening, 454 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 4: and it's unfortunate that they would basically be tossing these 455 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 4: guys out there as sacrificial lambs. But again, Buck, we 456 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 4: talked about this yesterday, and I think it's very significant. 457 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 4: This guy was tackled and had a broken rib trying 458 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 4: to obstruct an ICE, an ICE arrest just a few 459 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 4: days before this year. 460 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 3: He's a loon. 461 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: The guy's a loon. Okay, I'm sorry he's dead. He 462 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: didn't deserve to die. It is a tragedy. I do 463 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,959 Speaker 1: feel sorry for his family. But the guy was alone. 464 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 1: He had become deranged, because people like Tim Waltz are 465 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: saying that it's like and Frank hiding from the Gestapo. 466 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 4: Yes, and then he went back to obstruct ANEW with 467 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 4: a loaded weapon. So to me, the logic here is 468 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 4: he did make a decision that he might have to 469 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 4: use a loaded weapon. Presumably he didn't have a loaded 470 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 4: weapon when he got tackled and got the broken rib 471 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 4: the first time. So this was the decision he made 472 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,479 Speaker 4: that he might have to get engaged agent in an 473 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 4: act of violence. And if if if you knew you 474 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 4: had a weapon, let's pretend you knew you had a weapon. 475 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 4: Would you decide to obstruct ICE agents who were making 476 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 4: an arrest and get involved in any way knowing the 477 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 4: fraud circumstances of these relationships, if you were operating of 478 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 4: sound mind, would you think, Hey, you know what I 479 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 4: need to get in an altercation that I intentionally create 480 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 4: with ICE agents knowing that I have. 481 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: A weapon on me right now? 482 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 4: Would anybody out there think that that was a smart 483 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 4: decision to make? This guy intentionally put himself in a 484 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 4: dangerous situation and unfortunately is dead because of a series 485 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 4: of choices that he made, like you said, Buck, that 486 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 4: were motivated by may Or Fry and Tim Walls's encouragement 487 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 4: that the idea that these guys are heroes for the behavior. 488 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: I've got to say this to some of the some 489 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: of the two A organizations out there who are all like, 490 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 1: but you're allowed to bring a gun to a protest. 491 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: We can all look up the law here, but let 492 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: me tell you what's happening right now. Gavin Newsom is 493 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: giving speeches about how outraged she is because this is 494 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: about the First and the Second Amendment. Gavin Newsom is 495 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: citing the Second Amendment now in the pretty case, Gavin Newsom, 496 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: who just banned blocks from his state, basically, who has 497 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: tried to ban all kinds of assault rifles. He's increased 498 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: the prices on all these different processes. I mean, he 499 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: has done everything he can to ban the Second Amendment 500 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 1: in his state, but all of a sudden, he's, Oh, 501 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 1: you gotta be able to bring a gun to a protest. 502 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: Don't be used by the other side. Okay, when people 503 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: like me are telling you that you are being used. 504 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: If you're standing alongside Gavin neusim like you're allowed to 505 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: bring a gun to a protest, it's not a protest. 506 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: It's a sabotage operation. It's confronting police. It's a dumb 507 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: thing to do. As I said, it is currently the. 508 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 3: Law on Florida. 509 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: Clay, I could walk across street to my grocery store 510 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: right now, wearing the mask from the movie screen with 511 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: an AR fifteen with a silencer on it. I could 512 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 1: do that legally. Legally. Now, I probably couldn't go into 513 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: the grocery store, but I could be outside walking in 514 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: the street. 515 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 2: That would be an incredibly stupid and disruptive thing to do. Okay. 516 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: People would think that I was a maniac and they'd 517 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: be right to think that, even though the laws on 518 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: my side, even though legally I wouldn't be doing I 519 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: mean people might say, oh, but they can get you 520 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: for menacing or disturbing the peace or something, but in 521 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: terms of the gun stuff, it's allowed. My point is 522 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: this guy was alone. What he did was dumb. Doesn't 523 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 1: mean he deserved to die. But we are allowed to 524 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: talk about the full context of this situation, and also 525 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: to bring in two magazines. 526 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: I might add. 527 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I can steal carry sometimes my 528 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: older brother points out. He's like, why not all the time, 529 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: because my older brother can steal carries all the time. 530 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: So he's the real deal. I'm like, you know, walking 531 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: his dog, he's got a gun on him at all times. 532 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he had a gun on the Pomeranian case, 533 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: which we would carry around to a pomeranian. By the way, 534 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't expect the guy with a pomeranian to be strapped, 535 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: and he was really strapped. Let me tell you twenty 536 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: four to seven. Okay, So, but so he's a CCW 537 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: guy through and through. But I mean extra magazines. I mean, 538 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: are you in Fallujah? I mean, what do you think 539 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: this is? I mean to think about what this This 540 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: guy is dressed like he's going into battle. He's not 541 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: dressed like somebody who's trying to be able to defend himself. 542 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: Should the need arise and why would you need to 543 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: defend yourself if you're going to a place that's full. 544 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 3: Of law enforcement. 545 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: Yes, there's a reason why you're not allowed to carry 546 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: if you go into like a courthouse, because guess what 547 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: the assumption is that the state's gonna keep you safe 548 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: in there, And if you're going in there with a gun, you're. 549 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 2: Doing bad things. 550 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: So I just I'm frustrated to see some of the 551 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: two A people fall into this trap of just like 552 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: standing along. Yeah, I understand what the law says. It 553 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: doesn't mean it's smart. It also can mean that people 554 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: are being used in this process. We'll take some of 555 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: your calls. I'll take all the heat on that one. 556 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: By the way you said about I'm telling you people, I. 557 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 4: Don't think anybody out there who's really rational is arguing 558 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 4: against this. Look, there is a difference between what you 559 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 4: can legally do. I like your analogy. The screen mask 560 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 4: with an AK go to publics seems like a poor choice. Right, 561 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 4: There's a difference between what you can legally do and 562 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 4: what you should do in a common sense basis right. 563 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 4: And I think most people out there get it because 564 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 4: gun owners, by and large, I think, are super individually 565 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 4: responsible and understand the larger context of these choices. And 566 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 4: I think again, this guy getting tackled, getting a broken 567 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 4: rib and deciding that he needed to be armed, he 568 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 4: thought that he was going to need to get into 569 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 4: a gun battle. We won't know for sure because he's passed, 570 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 4: but I think the evidence of what he chose to 571 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 4: do suggests that he thought he was going and might 572 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 4: need to get into a gun battle with Ice agents 573 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 4: because he thought that he was a hero. Because of 574 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 4: the moronic aches from Tim Walls and Jacob Fry. 575 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 3: All right, when we. 576 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 4: Come back, well take some more of your calls and 577 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 4: get some of your talkbacks.
