<v Speaker 1>from the historic summit with Kim Jong Un and President Trump.

0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>What can we expect will happen and what should we

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:28.400
<v Speaker 1>be looking for? Also a another look at whether Russia

0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:31.159
<v Speaker 1>should be included once again in the G seven and

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:36.559
<v Speaker 1>some fresh pardons that Trump is considering. What will we

0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:39.120
<v Speaker 1>make of that? And what is the left gonna say

0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:42.080
<v Speaker 1>if he keeps on making the right moves there? That

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:46.000
<v Speaker 1>are more coming up. This is the Buck Sexton Show,

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>where the mission or mission is to decode what really

0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a

0:00:55.920 --> 0:01:04.000
<v Speaker 1>great American Again The Buck Sexton Show begins much no,

0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:07.959
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Buck Sex and Show. We are here

0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:11.880
<v Speaker 1>on Friday together. Thank you so much for being here.

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Great to uh have a chance to chat with you.

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 1>It is a is a Friday, so eight four four

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>to eight to five, eight four four nine, Buck. I

0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:30.039
<v Speaker 1>I have to say, I really like, I really like

0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>the the Trump approach so far on pardons. I've been

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:36.960
<v Speaker 1>discussing this with you all for a while, but I

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>think that the President understands that it's yet again one

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:46.319
<v Speaker 1>of these opportunities where he has the chance to clarify.

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:51.640
<v Speaker 1>He has the chance to show that no matter what

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 1>action he takes, there are people with platforms in the

0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:02.720
<v Speaker 1>media who will try to tear him down for it.

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Trump can pardon people that the left has been raging

0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 1>about their incarceration for years. Trump can do very clear

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:17.880
<v Speaker 1>outreach to UH minority groups or whatever it may be.

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:23.000
<v Speaker 1>They will try to tear him down for it. And

0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I saw day there was the possibility of a uh. Well,

0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.280
<v Speaker 1>here we have the president talking about play clip seven.

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:35.799
<v Speaker 1>There will be more parts. I thought Alice yesterday was beautiful.

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I thought Jack Johnson, which was recommended by Silvestis Loan

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:44.600
<v Speaker 1>and some great boxers. I'm thinking about somebody that you

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:47.359
<v Speaker 1>all know very well, and he went through a lot

0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:51.360
<v Speaker 1>and he wasn't very popular. Then he's circuly his memory

0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:58.799
<v Speaker 1>is very popular. Now I'm thinking about Muhammad Ali. Muhammad

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Ali may in fact be the next the next pardon.

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 1>Now it would be a posthumous pardon. It would be

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:14.640
<v Speaker 1>obviously after Muhammad les passed away. And there is also

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 1>the fact that he has covered under I believe a

0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 1>larger amnesty. He didn't register for selective service and so

0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>but it's a gesture Now people could say that the

0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:29.880
<v Speaker 1>gesture is I don't know. Some will say that it's

0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:31.080
<v Speaker 1>the right thing to do, other those say it's an

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:34.800
<v Speaker 1>empty gesture. But notice how the battle lines here are

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.080
<v Speaker 1>drawn specifically by those who like Trump and those who

0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>don't like Trump. The battle lines will not be about

0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:45.080
<v Speaker 1>whether this was something that at a previous point in

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:50.160
<v Speaker 1>time the left would have said, you know what's that's

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.280
<v Speaker 1>something that needs to happen, something that needs to get done.

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:56.280
<v Speaker 1>So he shows us once once again that this is

0:03:57.320 --> 0:04:01.080
<v Speaker 1>all about opposing Trump, no matter what the cost, no

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 1>matter what the issue, And on pardon specifically, it is

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>a way to remind all of us that what we've

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 1>been told for last year over the Russia Trump collusion situation,

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:18.799
<v Speaker 1>what we've been told for the last year is that

0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:25.239
<v Speaker 1>the FBI is infallible. Okay, I'm i overstate. The FBI

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:30.400
<v Speaker 1>is largely beyond reproach the media, the media trash cops,

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 1>but FBI leadership in d C. They deserve nothing but

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:37.600
<v Speaker 1>the utmost respect total patriots like James Comey. Although let's

0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:43.039
<v Speaker 1>remember that when that IG report comes out, above blame

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 1>and above reproach um, the IG report is going to

0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 1>I think put many large holes in that notion. But

0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.760
<v Speaker 1>they've been relying on Trump is undermining our institutions. He's

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 1>undermining our institutions, and that's also part of the drumbeat

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>of those institutions have functions. Those functions results in decisions,

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:10.240
<v Speaker 1>and and those decisions must be respected. Right that the

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.679
<v Speaker 1>process gives us an outcome, and the outcome is something

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:17.039
<v Speaker 1>that we have to accept. So whether they decide to

0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:21.200
<v Speaker 1>indict Hillary or not, it's that's the way it is,

0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 1>right because they have the right. We shouldn't think about

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:26.480
<v Speaker 1>whether this is just, whether it's politicized, whether there were

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 1>other indicators, here are other things that should be brought

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 1>into our consideration of the issue. The process is all

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:41.000
<v Speaker 1>we need to know with pardons, though, all of a

0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:43.680
<v Speaker 1>sudden you hear them say, whoa Trump shouldn't know you

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:46.880
<v Speaker 1>can't do that, Well, yeah, he can do that, and

0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:51.160
<v Speaker 1>he is doing it. And this is yet another moment

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:57.719
<v Speaker 1>where you see that the executive as emperor that was

0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:01.720
<v Speaker 1>when into overdrive under them administration, and people like me

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:06.480
<v Speaker 1>on record, all conservatives that I know who do this

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.839
<v Speaker 1>for a living, we're saying, you know, guys, this stuff

0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 1>with the executive orders and with the remember Obama would

0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:15.839
<v Speaker 1>say things out loud like you know, and I've got

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.039
<v Speaker 1>to put a phone and and he would say that

0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna go around Congress, and the left would cheer

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.880
<v Speaker 1>for this. Right, the left would cheer. They would say,

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, you know, he's not going to allow

0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:32.679
<v Speaker 1>obstruction to stand away. Well, that's actually the function of

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.719
<v Speaker 1>that's actually the function of those different bodies, right, that's

0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:40.320
<v Speaker 1>the the purpose of Congress is to make decisions about

0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 1>whether or not Congress is gonna pass certain laws. It's

0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.799
<v Speaker 1>not to say, hey, hey, President, what law should we pass?

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh cool that law, sign me up. That's not the

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.479
<v Speaker 1>way it's supposed to go. That is not the way

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 1>that this should be looked at. But they dispensed with

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 1>all when it came to Obama, and now with Trump,

0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 1>all of a Suddeny're like, whoa executive power? There's a

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 1>lot of a lot of parent the executive and you know,

0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:10.200
<v Speaker 1>we we warned them, but they didn't care. Because power

0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>is the ultimate end goal. It's the single most important

0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:22.720
<v Speaker 1>desire of progressivism is the attainment of power and wielding power.

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>That's it. Everything else the ill they'll shoehorn other things

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.120
<v Speaker 1>into it, but it is all about the state and

0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:32.360
<v Speaker 1>what the state can do. And so that it's with

0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:33.920
<v Speaker 1>that in mind that I see these pardons in the

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:38.800
<v Speaker 1>discussion of them and how they are opposed to it.

0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 1>But they can't say that. It's this is so clear cut, right.

0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>The president can pardon people. He has that power. They say, oh, well,

0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:51.720
<v Speaker 1>he went outside the normal channels, or they're complaining that

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:55.400
<v Speaker 1>celebrities are getting pardon the arbitrary folks. It always has

0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 1>been who gets a pardon whoever the president wants, kind

0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:02.520
<v Speaker 1>of like firing people. Who can the president fire the

0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:05.480
<v Speaker 1>executive branch that is answerable to him in the chain

0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>of command. Well, you can fire James Comey as he

0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>did for any reason or no reason. That is his right.

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Just like he can decide that he wants to pardon

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:18.040
<v Speaker 1>somebody because he likes their boat shoes, you know what

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:21.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean. You can pardon somebody for any reason. And

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and they still try to find ways to oppose this.

0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:29.240
<v Speaker 1>There's this this pathetic clawing at the UH at the

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:33.280
<v Speaker 1>last yeah, you know, their last effort here trying to

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:38.080
<v Speaker 1>find something with with Trump that is unconstitutional is gone.

0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:40.160
<v Speaker 1>But no, it's all there he's done what he's supposed

0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 1>to do. He's been doing what he should do all along.

0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:47.960
<v Speaker 1>But he also threw an interesting, an interesting uh addition

0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:50.719
<v Speaker 1>into things today and had to produce your Mike for

0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:53.679
<v Speaker 1>bring this one of my attention. You got people ask

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:55.760
<v Speaker 1>him questions on his way to uh. He's got a

0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:58.800
<v Speaker 1>press gagle, he's on his way to a meeting, and

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:00.760
<v Speaker 1>he put this out there. And this time is in

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 1>protests with the NFL and pardons, the pardons that could

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:08.839
<v Speaker 1>be coming in the future. Play Cliff ten instead of talk.

0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:12.199
<v Speaker 1>It's all talk, talk talk. We have a great country.

0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:14.679
<v Speaker 1>You should stand for our national anthem. You shouldn't go

0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 1>in a locker room when our national anthem is played.

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna ask all of those people to recommend to me,

0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 1>because that's what they're protesting. People that they think we're

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:31.160
<v Speaker 1>unfairly treated by the justice system. And I'm gonna take

0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:33.920
<v Speaker 1>a look at those applications and if I find and

0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:38.320
<v Speaker 1>my committee finds that they're unfairly treated, then we will

0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:44.440
<v Speaker 1>pardon them or at least let them out. The President

0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>is now turning to NFL players and saying, look, you know,

0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:50.440
<v Speaker 1>bring it to my attention, who who has been, who

0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:53.880
<v Speaker 1>has been unfairly treated, who has been over incarcerated or

0:09:53.880 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 1>perhaps even incarcerated unjustly. Who you there is, we'll see.

0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.839
<v Speaker 1>But are they not willing to engage because I saw

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:10.120
<v Speaker 1>that earlier in the week, Kim Kardashian shows up with

0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 1>a specific request in mind and and put it put

0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:16.000
<v Speaker 1>aside for the moment, whether you agree. And I read

0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:19.080
<v Speaker 1>that uh note yesterday during roll call from somebody who

0:10:19.160 --> 0:10:23.080
<v Speaker 1>disagrees with the pardon that Trump signed for that woman

0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:25.319
<v Speaker 1>who had been in prison for twenty years for drug conspiracy.

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I'll put that aside for a moment. Kardashian had an ask.

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.559
<v Speaker 1>She's a citizen, she's petitioning her government. She's gonna talk.

0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 1>And it's at least it's a request for clemency, right,

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not a request for some green energy boon doggle

0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:43.559
<v Speaker 1>or throw more funds my way courtesy of the taxpayer.

0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:48.720
<v Speaker 1>And we'll call it something else, stimulus or something. So

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 1>they were willing to criticize that. They won't even make

0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the allowance there of Hey, we're against him on most stuff,

0:10:55.920 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>but on this we will finally, we'll finally stop. And

0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:05.160
<v Speaker 1>I just believe that the the Trump's arrangement syndrome has

0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:08.360
<v Speaker 1>gotten to a point now are the only way the

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:11.440
<v Speaker 1>only way forward is to just keep hammering them, just

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.200
<v Speaker 1>keep pushing them. Keeps forced them to come out and

0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:20.640
<v Speaker 1>say things that expose how unfair the medias treatment the

0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:24.160
<v Speaker 1>president is, how unfair they're framing their narrative of this

0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:28.280
<v Speaker 1>entire administration has been and will continue to be and

0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:33.240
<v Speaker 1>hopefully bring about some change in that behavior, change in

0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.079
<v Speaker 1>those attitudes. I don't know if it's possible, but I

0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:38.960
<v Speaker 1>also know there's really not much of an alternative. There's

0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.440
<v Speaker 1>not much an alternative, and and the power of pardons

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:46.040
<v Speaker 1>is something that President Trump has wielded very very effectively

0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:49.160
<v Speaker 1>so far. You know, he's not letting people out that

0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:52.079
<v Speaker 1>everyone goes, oh my gosh, that guy's that guy's an

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:54.160
<v Speaker 1>axe murderer. We can't let him out of prison. Nope.

0:11:55.360 --> 0:12:00.120
<v Speaker 1>He is picking cases that bring to mind, not just

0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:03.360
<v Speaker 1>the specific injustices of those cases, but he's reminding us all,

0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:07.680
<v Speaker 1>don't put too much faith in this system, folks. I mean, yeah,

0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:10.000
<v Speaker 1>it's the system we've got. We're trying to make it better,

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.520
<v Speaker 1>and but let's not act like it's infallible. And certainly

0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:18.280
<v Speaker 1>not act that way because of a partisan impulse. And

0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:22.400
<v Speaker 1>that's what's been happening here. That's what's been happening. Oh,

0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 1>I have to say, there was much more scrutiny of

0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump's pardon of uh, Mike, the name is Alice. Her

0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 1>name is escaping. What's her last name, Alice Marie Johnson.

0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Alice Marie Johnson. Much more scrutiny of that

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.480
<v Speaker 1>decision that then I recall, Okay, this is my recollection

0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:49.080
<v Speaker 1>when Obama community the sentence of Oscar Lopez Rivera, who

0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:53.360
<v Speaker 1>was had blood on his hands, was a terrorist, a

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:59.440
<v Speaker 1>a Puerto Rican separatist terrorists. So I think that the

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.400
<v Speaker 1>president's in the right things here. I think that he's

0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.640
<v Speaker 1>showing us all what's really going on. Um, it is Friday,

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:06.800
<v Speaker 1>so you know what, and I've been working some movie

0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 1>quotes into the show in the week, so John pulled

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.960
<v Speaker 1>us all together for us. Actually movie quote Friday hit it.

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:22.680
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen you here? I hope not? Sporadically. Three,

0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 1>for lack of a better word, is good Fridays. It's

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 1>like people only do things because they get paid Fridays.

0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:35.360
<v Speaker 1>And that's just truly sad. Yeah, that's right. Awesome movie

0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:37.559
<v Speaker 1>quote Friday, not actually a quote Friday. I got this

0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.559
<v Speaker 1>confused for a second. So I think a lot of

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:42.160
<v Speaker 1>you will be able to remember those different lines that

0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I share with you during over the course of the show.

0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.199
<v Speaker 1>So there you have it. UM eight four four n

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:50.800
<v Speaker 1>eight to five. You want to chat, We've got lines open.

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm here in the swamp. I love the every team.

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:55.480
<v Speaker 1>I really do look forward to this part of my

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:59.200
<v Speaker 1>day every day, this opportunity to chat with all of you,

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:03.880
<v Speaker 1>and especially I'm in a new place, surrounded by a

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:07.080
<v Speaker 1>lot of swamp creatures. Unfortunately our people are in charge, right,

0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:10.600
<v Speaker 1>but surrounded by a lot of swamp creatures. It's good

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:13.040
<v Speaker 1>that you guys are my or my lifeline to the

0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 1>real world here every day on the on the radio waves.

0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:19.280
<v Speaker 1>We even sent out way, Yeah, that's the waves, because right,

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.720
<v Speaker 1>that's how that's how radio works. Uh. And with that,

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 1>we'll be right back Where aware is Milannia Trump. She

0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.920
<v Speaker 1>was last seen in public on May ten, That was

0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:42.240
<v Speaker 1>eighteen days ago. One thing that the President in the

0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:44.960
<v Speaker 1>White House has been quite quiet about is Malannia Trump

0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:47.440
<v Speaker 1>and her status. There's been a lot of questions about

0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:52.040
<v Speaker 1>her surgery, her time at Walter Read and now her invisibility.

0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:53.880
<v Speaker 1>The last time we caught a glimpse of her was

0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:57.560
<v Speaker 1>on May twenty four days, more than three weeks. One

0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:00.680
<v Speaker 1>thing we did not see was First Lady Annie A. Trump.

0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>The First Lady has not been seen in public for

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:07.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty five days, twenty six days without being in the

0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:10.720
<v Speaker 1>public eye. She's doing stuff in the White House. Isn't

0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:13.200
<v Speaker 1>there a picture? She didn't go to Camp David with

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:16.520
<v Speaker 1>the weekend and he took some of his children and

0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:19.800
<v Speaker 1>now his young son. You know, where's the picture? David Frum,

0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>who's the Atlantic senior editor to your eyes last weekend

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:26.840
<v Speaker 1>of tweets some basically saying uh that President Trump could

0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:28.800
<v Speaker 1>have possibly beaten his wife and covered it up. The

0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 1>tweet says closed President Trump punched the First Lady in

0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:32.920
<v Speaker 1>the White House and then ordered the Secret Service to

0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:37.640
<v Speaker 1>conceal the assaulting. A lot of questions being asked about

0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 1>something that there shouldn't be any question over. First Lady

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>had to have a kidney procedure. She had to have surgery.

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 1>It's has been known, it's been known all along. But

0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:56.560
<v Speaker 1>you will also note that in that series that we

0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 1>played for you, of of questions there there's meant to

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.600
<v Speaker 1>be a kind of yeah, maybe there's something sinister going

0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:06.400
<v Speaker 1>on here. Vibe to it all there, there's they're supposed

0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:09.960
<v Speaker 1>to be a well, you know, maybe something's being covered

0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:12.800
<v Speaker 1>up or we're not being told something, because otherwise, how

0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 1>is this even a story? How is this even something

0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:18.560
<v Speaker 1>that anyone needs to ask about? Well, I can tell

0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>you that when you dig into this a little more,

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:25.640
<v Speaker 1>you find and Trump responded. Trump wrote about this. He

0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:27.840
<v Speaker 1>wrote that the fake news media has been so unfair

0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.080
<v Speaker 1>and vicious to my wife and our great first Lady,

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Milania during her recovery from surgery. They reported everything from

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:36.680
<v Speaker 1>near death to facelift, to left the White House for

0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:40.440
<v Speaker 1>New York or Virginia, to abuse, all fakes. She's doing

0:16:40.440 --> 0:16:43.920
<v Speaker 1>really well now. Of course, the peddlers of fake news

0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:45.880
<v Speaker 1>came and said, that's not true. The media, you know,

0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:48.160
<v Speaker 1>they always think the media means them. That's a tough

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:53.640
<v Speaker 1>thing to speak for the media. But he had the

0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:55.960
<v Speaker 1>New York Times, and I had to brief Hayton of

0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the federals who pulled all these togethers. New York Times

0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:02.880
<v Speaker 1>implied the timing of milannis kidney surgery was suspect. You

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:06.959
<v Speaker 1>had the Roots say that Milania uh a, Milannia had

0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 1>a body double at an event. You had rolling a

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:16.320
<v Speaker 1>Rolling Stone writer Jamille Smith suggest that Milanni's absence was

0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:22.600
<v Speaker 1>due to physical abuse. You had Politico uh blaming the

0:17:22.600 --> 0:17:25.919
<v Speaker 1>White House for stoking conspiracy theories and then proceeding to

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 1>do just that about this whole Milannia situation. And the

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.240
<v Speaker 1>situation isn't the first lady had to have surgery. I

0:17:32.280 --> 0:17:35.040
<v Speaker 1>just hope she's doing well. You know, it's also someone's

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:37.000
<v Speaker 1>wife and a mom and someone's daughter, right, I mean,

0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:39.960
<v Speaker 1>these journals journalists are savages. I think one of the

0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>problems that I have in d C. They're just all

0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:47.399
<v Speaker 1>these these just puff shirt you know, clownish journalists running

0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:50.960
<v Speaker 1>all over the place who are not nice people, very petty,

0:17:51.080 --> 0:18:00.080
<v Speaker 1>very vindictive and really distasteful. And I do not like them.

0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:01.560
<v Speaker 1>And that's a problem. You know, in New York can

0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:04.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of ignore people a little bit more because it's

0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:05.840
<v Speaker 1>such a big city that you just kind of you do.

0:18:06.080 --> 0:18:08.679
<v Speaker 1>Everyone's ignoring everybody, so you actually have it in a

0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:10.800
<v Speaker 1>weird way in New York a tremendous amount of privacy

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:13.640
<v Speaker 1>because nobody cares there's so many people and so much

0:18:13.680 --> 0:18:15.600
<v Speaker 1>going on that nobody cares, you know, in d C.

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 1>I walk around. I gotta walk past the Washington Post

0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:22.800
<v Speaker 1>all the time, and I'm like, uh, yeah, it feels

0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.880
<v Speaker 1>so it feels so swampy. I just don't like how

0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:30.040
<v Speaker 1>swampy it all feels. And eight four four nine Buck,

0:18:30.160 --> 0:18:34.000
<v Speaker 1>eight four four to eight to five, you like to chat.

0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:35.680
<v Speaker 1>We've got some lines late. We could take a couple

0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:39.159
<v Speaker 1>more calls, um, kind of talk to you about some

0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:41.520
<v Speaker 1>breaking news that on the clip side. I don't know

0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:43.320
<v Speaker 1>how else to say, though, And it's look, it's really

0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:47.560
<v Speaker 1>it's really sad. It's a couple of really sad news stories.

0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:49.520
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think we're gonna spend some time on

0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:05.200
<v Speaker 1>He's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton his back.

0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:08.520
<v Speaker 1>All right, we've got some calls here, let's get to it.

0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 1>And now I knew this, I knew this day would come.

0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:14.800
<v Speaker 1>This is a question to when. But here we are.

0:19:16.000 --> 0:19:19.160
<v Speaker 1>I am not the only Buck in the universe. There

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:22.280
<v Speaker 1>is in fact another Buck out there. He is calling

0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:25.879
<v Speaker 1>in right now from Mobile, Alabama. But great to have

0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:30.120
<v Speaker 1>you on. How's it going? Man? Your name is awesome.

0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Other than that I'm good. Yeah, I've been listening to

0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:36.280
<v Speaker 1>you for quite a while now. Thank you for two

0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:38.320
<v Speaker 1>years every Yeah, they just put you on the radio

0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:40.240
<v Speaker 1>about two years ago. I'm gonna listen to you ever since.

0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much. What I'm calling about is any

0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:49.359
<v Speaker 1>media is is reacting to Milania not being out in

0:19:49.359 --> 0:19:51.680
<v Speaker 1>the public showing her face this and that. I mean,

0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:55.240
<v Speaker 1>for conal laws, you just had surgery. That's pretty major

0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:58.320
<v Speaker 1>surgery from what I hear, and she's having a hard

0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:00.320
<v Speaker 1>time of covering from it, you know, And it just

0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:03.240
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make any kind of sense of how the media

0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:06.679
<v Speaker 1>wants to focus on why is she not showing her

0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.280
<v Speaker 1>face whenever they should be focused on what's going on

0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>into this country and what's going on you know out

0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:15.399
<v Speaker 1>and abroad and the immigration and all this kind of stuff.

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:18.000
<v Speaker 1>It just doesn't make any sense to me about why

0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:21.680
<v Speaker 1>do they focus on her not being you know, well

0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:24.840
<v Speaker 1>right now they should be wishing that she gets the

0:20:24.880 --> 0:20:27.960
<v Speaker 1>feeling better, you know, hoping for you know, good health

0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and all that, instead of just trying to Yeah, it's

0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:35.600
<v Speaker 1>really nasty, I mean, it's it's very It just shows

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:40.240
<v Speaker 1>such a lack of of kindness quite honestly and just

0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:44.480
<v Speaker 1>a lack of consideration. Yeah, it's common decency. I mean

0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I was dealing with something like this the other day

0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:49.280
<v Speaker 1>at work about you know, how can people be so

0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:53.600
<v Speaker 1>rude and in considerate of others? And because whenever I

0:20:53.600 --> 0:20:55.960
<v Speaker 1>don't whenever I'm in public or even when I met

0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:57.679
<v Speaker 1>the house my wife and kids, I always trying to

0:20:57.680 --> 0:21:00.600
<v Speaker 1>think about their well being before or do my own.

0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:03.720
<v Speaker 1>And then once I know that they're okay, I'm worried

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 1>about myself. And it's the same thing with me. They

0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:10.360
<v Speaker 1>don't care about nobody else with themselves and their agenda.

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:14.880
<v Speaker 1>That's yeah, that's true, man, Buck, thank you so much

0:21:14.920 --> 0:21:17.840
<v Speaker 1>for calling in. It feels a little like I was

0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 1>speaking to myself there as a little Freudian. It's like Bucks,

0:21:21.040 --> 0:21:24.000
<v Speaker 1>so tell me all of your dreams, you know. It's

0:21:24.040 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 1>like Buck speaking of Buck. I'd probably do a segment

0:21:27.320 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 1>with that. I get to ask me the questions that

0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:32.680
<v Speaker 1>if I were you, i'd ask me. That makes some sense,

0:21:32.720 --> 0:21:40.159
<v Speaker 1>I think John in Cincinnati, Ohio? What up? John? So

0:21:40.400 --> 0:21:43.399
<v Speaker 1>Buck a long time with a long time listener, first

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:47.720
<v Speaker 1>multiple time caller, Actually, thank you back, called you back

0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:51.000
<v Speaker 1>while you're on the Blaze and I've been listening to

0:21:51.040 --> 0:21:56.360
<v Speaker 1>you Saturdays since you were on Saturdays. Yes, well, thank

0:21:56.359 --> 0:22:00.240
<v Speaker 1>you so much half the time. Um, I got a

0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:06.960
<v Speaker 1>movie quote for you. All right, let's jim. Oh okay, well, Jim,

0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:08.920
<v Speaker 1>since you are my guest and I am your host,

0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:11.320
<v Speaker 1>what is your pleasure? What do you like to do? Oh?

0:22:11.440 --> 0:22:15.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, play chess? Screw well, let's play chess.

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm, I got nothing. Saddles one of the most

0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:29.119
<v Speaker 1>awesome movies ever. I'm gonna tell you something, John, and

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:30.919
<v Speaker 1>it's just between you and me. Okay, I don't want

0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:32.560
<v Speaker 1>you to judge, man, I want't even else to know this.

0:22:33.359 --> 0:22:37.600
<v Speaker 1>I've never seen Blazing Saddles and producer Mike looked like

0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:40.040
<v Speaker 1>he like he just had an a video show without

0:22:40.080 --> 0:22:44.960
<v Speaker 1>knowing it. Oh wait, you haven't seen it either. Woo. Yeah,

0:22:45.119 --> 0:22:48.240
<v Speaker 1>it's it's one of the best movies of all time.

0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:51.840
<v Speaker 1>I've probably been watching it off and on since I

0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:56.359
<v Speaker 1>was like five. I can tell you only understanding the

0:22:56.440 --> 0:22:59.399
<v Speaker 1>jokes because I grow up. I feel like there aren't

0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:02.480
<v Speaker 1>that man. There are very few movies for me that

0:23:02.600 --> 0:23:05.720
<v Speaker 1>are funny when I was a kid that I still

0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:09.200
<v Speaker 1>think are funny when I'm older. Ghostbusters falls into that category,

0:23:09.240 --> 0:23:12.479
<v Speaker 1>but if you say Blazing Saddles is also in that category,

0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:14.680
<v Speaker 1>I will certainly I'll certainly give it a give it

0:23:14.720 --> 0:23:17.400
<v Speaker 1>a watch. So thank you very much, John for being

0:23:17.400 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 1>a listener for calling in. I appreciate it, and uh

0:23:20.600 --> 0:23:25.760
<v Speaker 1>like from you, Um yeah, what's uh trying to think

0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:28.880
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite western? I'm not that well. I want

0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 1>to see the Hostiles movie that came out. It didn't

0:23:33.080 --> 0:23:35.080
<v Speaker 1>last that long to people told him it was very good,

0:23:35.119 --> 0:23:37.919
<v Speaker 1>like a little bleak, a little intense, but it was

0:23:38.040 --> 0:23:40.440
<v Speaker 1>very well made and it didn't do the whole I mean,

0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:43.880
<v Speaker 1>I just this thing of like, you know, like everyone's

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:46.280
<v Speaker 1>every society has got their problems, right, but you notice

0:23:46.359 --> 0:23:50.920
<v Speaker 1>this trend of like the you know, Native Americans are

0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:53.679
<v Speaker 1>either you know, they're they're like all the all the

0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:56.919
<v Speaker 1>good guys in more content contemporary movies. I know they

0:23:57.000 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 1>used to be all the bad guys, right, but now

0:23:58.320 --> 0:24:03.240
<v Speaker 1>it's all the good guys. And I'm always like, why

0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:06.760
<v Speaker 1>do we have to politicize everything? Apparently in Hostiles, you've

0:24:06.760 --> 0:24:11.640
<v Speaker 1>got you know, you know, US cavalry doing some bad things.

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:15.560
<v Speaker 1>You've got Native tribes doing some bad things. It's like

0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:18.159
<v Speaker 1>like the way it was like the world. But I

0:24:18.160 --> 0:24:20.399
<v Speaker 1>want to see that one. I mean, Tombstone is my

0:24:20.400 --> 0:24:22.560
<v Speaker 1>favorite Western, but it also is kind of an action movie.

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:24.600
<v Speaker 1>But the bottom line is that it's really to him Stone.

0:24:25.080 --> 0:24:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I'm kind of stalling because I don't

0:24:26.600 --> 0:24:29.200
<v Speaker 1>even want to have to dive into our next topic

0:24:29.240 --> 0:24:32.119
<v Speaker 1>because it's it's it's a bummer. But I want to

0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:35.439
<v Speaker 1>share some thoughts with you about two two pieces of

0:24:35.440 --> 0:24:39.520
<v Speaker 1>news that came in today. One has to do with

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:45.800
<v Speaker 1>the suicide of Anthony Bourdain, which you know that when

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:47.800
<v Speaker 1>people say it's a shock, I think suicide if someone

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:49.720
<v Speaker 1>you don't know, is always a shock because how could you.

0:24:50.280 --> 0:24:56.000
<v Speaker 1>But occasionally there'll be some precursors. You know, somebody will

0:24:56.040 --> 0:24:58.720
<v Speaker 1>have been, you know, maybe institutionalized, or have terrible bouts

0:24:58.720 --> 0:25:00.359
<v Speaker 1>of depression, and that will be public as you have

0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:05.359
<v Speaker 1>some idea Bourdaine just I would never have thought. But

0:25:05.440 --> 0:25:09.480
<v Speaker 1>then again with you know, with Robin Williams, I would

0:25:09.480 --> 0:25:11.720
<v Speaker 1>have never have thought, so he had the Bourdaine. And

0:25:11.760 --> 0:25:14.919
<v Speaker 1>then also a note today that I saw from a

0:25:14.960 --> 0:25:17.440
<v Speaker 1>personal letter from Charles crot Hammer. We'll talk about both

0:25:17.520 --> 0:25:19.000
<v Speaker 1>these on the other side of the breaks. So stay

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:37.800
<v Speaker 1>with me. The Anthony Bourdain UH is dead an apparent suicide,

0:25:39.240 --> 0:25:42.280
<v Speaker 1>and I'll do we'll deal with this story and then

0:25:42.280 --> 0:25:45.320
<v Speaker 1>we have another very sad story, UM talk about today,

0:25:45.240 --> 0:25:51.840
<v Speaker 1>another media figure. I tend to be somebody who doesn't

0:25:55.000 --> 0:25:59.679
<v Speaker 1>over over personalized people that I don't know. And I

0:25:59.760 --> 0:26:02.080
<v Speaker 1>never I never met boor Day. I have no personal

0:26:02.080 --> 0:26:08.000
<v Speaker 1>connection whatsoever. But I do remember times when I was

0:26:08.160 --> 0:26:10.600
<v Speaker 1>just all I wanted was to watch something that wasn't

0:26:10.640 --> 0:26:16.360
<v Speaker 1>going to be political or at least overly political, annoyingly political,

0:26:18.080 --> 0:26:21.080
<v Speaker 1>something that you could just sit back and enjoy. And

0:26:21.160 --> 0:26:23.480
<v Speaker 1>it was. It was a story, it was a journey,

0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:26.560
<v Speaker 1>you know. The Well. Then when I went to Vietnam

0:26:26.720 --> 0:26:29.600
<v Speaker 1>some years ago, I had planned to do all this

0:26:29.680 --> 0:26:33.760
<v Speaker 1>research before I went, but I one thing I did

0:26:33.800 --> 0:26:35.320
<v Speaker 1>do because I didn't really have time to do all

0:26:35.320 --> 0:26:42.280
<v Speaker 1>that research, was I downloaded Anthony Bourdain's UH. I downloaded

0:26:42.359 --> 0:26:47.159
<v Speaker 1>his episode on iTunes of him in Vietnam, and I

0:26:47.160 --> 0:26:52.479
<v Speaker 1>remember I watched it and I then went to at

0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:53.960
<v Speaker 1>least one of the places he went. It was this

0:26:54.119 --> 0:26:56.679
<v Speaker 1>little and I'm with my little brother, and it was

0:26:56.720 --> 0:27:00.520
<v Speaker 1>really tough to find and in in this show, you

0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:04.280
<v Speaker 1>had seen this being, you know, elderly Vietnamese women with

0:27:04.320 --> 0:27:10.040
<v Speaker 1>a little soupcart making this, what he said, was one

0:27:10.040 --> 0:27:11.760
<v Speaker 1>of the most of course, right, but one of the

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:16.000
<v Speaker 1>most delicious soups he's ever had ever. And we went

0:27:16.080 --> 0:27:18.399
<v Speaker 1>to find this. It's just a cart in an alley

0:27:18.400 --> 0:27:20.639
<v Speaker 1>way and we managed to, which I'm impressed to this

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.840
<v Speaker 1>day that we actually found it, because it wasn't a restaurant,

0:27:23.840 --> 0:27:25.399
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't really marked. You had to kind of go

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:29.080
<v Speaker 1>to the neighborhood and look around. It wasn't an easy thing.

0:27:29.119 --> 0:27:32.320
<v Speaker 1>And we got there. It was a motto brother. And

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:34.000
<v Speaker 1>what it was clear to me was that they had

0:27:34.040 --> 0:27:38.440
<v Speaker 1>done a little bit of staging for the episode before um,

0:27:38.520 --> 0:27:40.800
<v Speaker 1>before they actually filmed it, because when we got there,

0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:43.560
<v Speaker 1>there was around this cart, this in this whole alleyway.

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:48.440
<v Speaker 1>There's just trash and dogs wandering everywhere and like little

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:52.399
<v Speaker 1>kind of rickety looking tiny plastic chairs for people to

0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:55.119
<v Speaker 1>sit in. So it was a little like almost like

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:57.240
<v Speaker 1>a trash dump, is what it really looked like. But

0:27:57.280 --> 0:27:58.640
<v Speaker 1>there was the car. I mean, when we had the soup,

0:27:58.720 --> 0:28:01.439
<v Speaker 1>and you know what, the soup was incredible, and I

0:28:01.480 --> 0:28:03.199
<v Speaker 1>only had it and only knew about it because of

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Bourdain show. So it's just, you know, I bring that

0:28:06.280 --> 0:28:08.359
<v Speaker 1>up because for me, it's an example of how people

0:28:08.400 --> 0:28:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you don't know, through their through their work, through their

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:18.800
<v Speaker 1>their craft, there art, there, creative endeavors can can affect

0:28:18.800 --> 0:28:23.159
<v Speaker 1>your life. And some of my my favorite moments all

0:28:23.240 --> 0:28:25.320
<v Speaker 1>time of doing this media thing, which I never sought

0:28:25.320 --> 0:28:27.439
<v Speaker 1>out to do and was not my plan and just

0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:30.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of happened. Or when people tell me that, you know,

0:28:30.640 --> 0:28:35.720
<v Speaker 1>they when they were undergoing chemo, they listened to the

0:28:35.720 --> 0:28:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Battle of Lepanto over and over and it gave them comfort.

0:28:38.600 --> 0:28:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Or it's just which is a story that one of

0:28:42.240 --> 0:28:45.840
<v Speaker 1>my beloved members of Team Buck told or sent to

0:28:45.880 --> 0:28:48.719
<v Speaker 1>me some some years ago, that stuff really that can

0:28:48.800 --> 0:28:51.960
<v Speaker 1>really matter, can really help people. And so Bourdain is

0:28:51.960 --> 0:28:57.400
<v Speaker 1>one of those rare individuals who um really changed my

0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:01.760
<v Speaker 1>thinking about the whole area of life, which is food

0:29:01.800 --> 0:29:06.280
<v Speaker 1>and cooking in the culinary world. I read Kitchen Confidential long,

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean not a long, long, long time ago. I

0:29:08.160 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 1>want to say, maybe I was in college. Yeah, I

0:29:11.120 --> 0:29:13.280
<v Speaker 1>think I was in college. And if you haven't read

0:29:13.320 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 1>about it's a great book. It's very very readable. It's

0:29:16.280 --> 0:29:19.960
<v Speaker 1>a really really it's a fun read, but he also

0:29:20.040 --> 0:29:21.640
<v Speaker 1>learned some things about it, and he has it. He

0:29:21.680 --> 0:29:25.280
<v Speaker 1>had a very good storytelling voice, and clearly was was

0:29:25.360 --> 0:29:28.920
<v Speaker 1>incredibly successful. And I think it's just hard first to

0:29:29.000 --> 0:29:31.640
<v Speaker 1>process that somebody who comes across that way. And I know,

0:29:31.800 --> 0:29:34.719
<v Speaker 1>I know that mental illness is something that people often

0:29:35.440 --> 0:29:37.720
<v Speaker 1>hide very well, hid for very long periods of time,

0:29:38.800 --> 0:29:43.120
<v Speaker 1>um or you know what I mean, mental illness, severe depression, alcoholism.

0:29:43.160 --> 0:29:48.000
<v Speaker 1>But when someone's whole job is to find joy and

0:29:48.080 --> 0:29:50.080
<v Speaker 1>adventure and spread that to other people, it's just hard

0:29:50.120 --> 0:29:55.920
<v Speaker 1>to imagine the darkness that they carry with themselves. It's

0:29:55.920 --> 0:29:58.280
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to it's hard to imagine, really is so

0:29:58.360 --> 0:29:59.880
<v Speaker 1>that part of it I found And I know that

0:30:00.000 --> 0:30:02.680
<v Speaker 1>this week also you had Kate Spade. I wasn't familiar

0:30:02.720 --> 0:30:04.720
<v Speaker 1>with with her at all except through the name from

0:30:04.720 --> 0:30:12.880
<v Speaker 1>her massive, a massive clothing brand. And then you had

0:30:12.880 --> 0:30:14.560
<v Speaker 1>one more. But and I'm just gonna bring it in here,

0:30:14.600 --> 0:30:16.440
<v Speaker 1>even though I can talk about it longer, because you know,

0:30:16.480 --> 0:30:20.840
<v Speaker 1>it's a Friday, and I don't. I am always wary

0:30:20.960 --> 0:30:24.720
<v Speaker 1>of bringing us down before the weekend, though sometimes it's

0:30:24.760 --> 0:30:27.840
<v Speaker 1>just the nature of this business. But this letter that

0:30:27.920 --> 0:30:32.760
<v Speaker 1>was put out, it's just heartbreaking from Charles Crodhammer, who

0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 1>has I'm sure all of you are familiar with his

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:40.600
<v Speaker 1>work regular on Brett Brett Bears Panel on Fox News,

0:30:41.080 --> 0:30:44.160
<v Speaker 1>one of the most prolific conservative columnists, if not the

0:30:44.240 --> 0:30:47.760
<v Speaker 1>most prolific conservative columnists of the last thirty or forty years.

0:30:48.760 --> 0:30:52.320
<v Speaker 1>And from everyone that I ever heard who interacted with

0:30:52.360 --> 0:30:54.200
<v Speaker 1>the guy, and I know a lot of people that

0:30:54.280 --> 0:30:59.120
<v Speaker 1>work at and have worked at Fox, was top to

0:30:59.200 --> 0:31:05.120
<v Speaker 1>bottom in every way, a class act and a really

0:31:05.240 --> 0:31:09.680
<v Speaker 1>kind person. And that's for for people who are prominent

0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:12.280
<v Speaker 1>in national media discussions. I'll be honest, it's really in

0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:16.360
<v Speaker 1>short supply these days. People are people are nasty. And

0:31:16.440 --> 0:31:19.160
<v Speaker 1>one thing that I find that is troubling is that

0:31:20.040 --> 0:31:23.160
<v Speaker 1>those who are in you know, those who are consumers

0:31:23.920 --> 0:31:27.800
<v Speaker 1>of media, those who you know, watch certain shows, listen

0:31:27.840 --> 0:31:31.040
<v Speaker 1>to certain shows. I'm always amazing like you that the

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:32.920
<v Speaker 1>choice with me that they'll listen to somebody, they won't

0:31:32.960 --> 0:31:36.080
<v Speaker 1>listen to somebody who's kind and who's brilliant. Although Charles

0:31:36.120 --> 0:31:38.040
<v Speaker 1>was very, very successful, but there are other people I

0:31:38.080 --> 0:31:40.320
<v Speaker 1>know of what I feel like I've never really gotten

0:31:40.360 --> 0:31:43.920
<v Speaker 1>their due and are really good people on top of that,

0:31:43.960 --> 0:31:48.640
<v Speaker 1>but they will listen to people who are jerks, more nasty,

0:31:48.760 --> 0:31:52.400
<v Speaker 1>who are debasing who, And Charles was just the antithesis

0:31:52.480 --> 0:31:54.000
<v Speaker 1>of that in all of his work. Again, I can

0:31:54.000 --> 0:31:57.600
<v Speaker 1>only value it and professionally, I never I never met Charles,

0:31:59.000 --> 0:32:00.680
<v Speaker 1>but he wrote in this letter that he has weeks

0:32:00.680 --> 0:32:04.960
<v Speaker 1>to live after a very long battle with cancer in

0:32:05.000 --> 0:32:07.240
<v Speaker 1>which he had a large tumor removed from his abdomen.

0:32:08.120 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 1>And here here's another time when it feels like there

0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:14.560
<v Speaker 1>is there is a loss that even for those of

0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:19.680
<v Speaker 1>us like me who never met Charles Krodhammer Uh, the

0:32:19.760 --> 0:32:23.560
<v Speaker 1>loss will be will be made real for us because

0:32:23.600 --> 0:32:25.920
<v Speaker 1>his was a voice that I think was was truly

0:32:26.000 --> 0:32:29.240
<v Speaker 1>valuable in the national conversation about all kinds of things.

0:32:30.120 --> 0:32:33.000
<v Speaker 1>I never once saw him, and I watched I've watched

0:32:33.000 --> 0:32:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Brett Bear Show. I can't even count. They can't even

0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:38.320
<v Speaker 1>begin to estimate the number of times I never once

0:32:38.360 --> 0:32:44.480
<v Speaker 1>saw him Uh be belittle people or belittle anyone, be nasty,

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:50.640
<v Speaker 1>be snied, be undermining, be And it feels to me

0:32:50.760 --> 0:32:52.760
<v Speaker 1>like that's actually just the direction of media now. It's

0:32:52.760 --> 0:32:57.560
<v Speaker 1>all like twitter burns and nastiness and people acting in

0:32:57.560 --> 0:32:59.920
<v Speaker 1>the worst spot, acting ways they would never do in person.

0:33:00.000 --> 0:33:05.440
<v Speaker 1>But the truth is most most like journalists out there

0:33:05.480 --> 0:33:09.280
<v Speaker 1>who are constantly walking around talking about how they're speaking

0:33:09.280 --> 0:33:13.320
<v Speaker 1>through the power, kind of cowards in person. They are

0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:17.400
<v Speaker 1>very very little personal courage on display from And I

0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:20.200
<v Speaker 1>don't just mean like taking risks to their own personal safety.

0:33:20.240 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I just mean they don't do things that are risky

0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:24.640
<v Speaker 1>for them. They do what is best for them all

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:26.320
<v Speaker 1>the time and then pretend to be taking the risks.

0:33:26.840 --> 0:33:29.360
<v Speaker 1>But but Charles was a really important voice in the

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.840
<v Speaker 1>in the conversation, and and it's it's just very sad.

0:33:32.880 --> 0:33:34.360
<v Speaker 1>It's very sad for his family. And I know for

0:33:34.400 --> 0:33:36.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot of my friends are Fox who know Charles

0:33:36.280 --> 0:33:38.920
<v Speaker 1>and worked with them for years and years. It's I

0:33:38.960 --> 0:33:40.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know what else to say. It's been a rough

0:33:40.560 --> 0:33:44.080
<v Speaker 1>been a rough week for news stories of of beloved

0:33:44.080 --> 0:33:46.880
<v Speaker 1>figures who have had a major impact on a lot

0:33:46.920 --> 0:33:52.680
<v Speaker 1>of lives around the world. And two suicides and uh

0:33:52.880 --> 0:33:57.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of losing battle against cancer. It's tough, you know.

0:33:57.200 --> 0:33:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm just gonna I want to leave it there

0:33:58.840 --> 0:34:01.600
<v Speaker 1>for now. I can't spend much more time on it

0:34:02.440 --> 0:34:06.000
<v Speaker 1>because it's gonna bring me down to And I am

0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:08.600
<v Speaker 1>cognizant of you spending your time with me here. And

0:34:08.640 --> 0:34:10.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't want us to. I don't want us to

0:34:10.320 --> 0:34:12.880
<v Speaker 1>get you down, but I had to note and you know,

0:34:14.239 --> 0:34:17.800
<v Speaker 1>prayers to the families of Bourdain and cry Well Krawdheimer

0:34:17.840 --> 0:34:21.120
<v Speaker 1>still with us. And look, I don't want to be

0:34:21.280 --> 0:34:24.760
<v Speaker 1>naive or anything, but you know, he said he's losing

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:26.600
<v Speaker 1>his battle in all his weeks to live. But you

0:34:26.640 --> 0:34:30.319
<v Speaker 1>never know, you never know. So there there is that

0:34:30.400 --> 0:34:33.680
<v Speaker 1>you never know, Kenny from Boston. Maybe you can cheer

0:34:33.680 --> 0:34:36.600
<v Speaker 1>me up a little bit, my friend. What's up? Yes,

0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:40.040
<v Speaker 1>let's hope for a miracle cure for Charles Crowdehammer. I

0:34:40.080 --> 0:34:43.799
<v Speaker 1>always loved him, and I never knew that he was

0:34:43.840 --> 0:34:47.319
<v Speaker 1>actually a quartriplegic. And he was in the um. You know,

0:34:47.360 --> 0:34:48.880
<v Speaker 1>he was in a wheel chair. I watched him so

0:34:48.920 --> 0:34:52.200
<v Speaker 1>many times and I so oh he always sits so erect.

0:34:52.239 --> 0:34:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I never figured it out, you know, and he was

0:34:55.440 --> 0:34:59.239
<v Speaker 1>he was really good all the time. And uh so

0:34:59.440 --> 0:35:00.919
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I've and say this, you know, Kenny,

0:35:00.920 --> 0:35:02.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't know anybody else at that level of the

0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:05.399
<v Speaker 1>punditry game who I've never seen step out of line

0:35:05.400 --> 0:35:07.360
<v Speaker 1>with anybody or ack like a jerk. I mean in

0:35:07.360 --> 0:35:11.319
<v Speaker 1>the way that he you know, to be the absolute peak,

0:35:11.360 --> 0:35:14.400
<v Speaker 1>the absolute top and never getting nasty. It was pretty amazing,

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:20.759
<v Speaker 1>old school civility best. And anyway, so I got a question,

0:35:21.120 --> 0:35:24.520
<v Speaker 1>and um and I also have a movie quote. So

0:35:24.640 --> 0:35:27.680
<v Speaker 1>what I wanted to know is, what are you postulating

0:35:27.680 --> 0:35:31.160
<v Speaker 1>on what Mula or Mueller is going to be dropping

0:35:31.239 --> 0:35:35.640
<v Speaker 1>when Trump has this uh nuclear thing, because he always

0:35:35.640 --> 0:35:38.520
<v Speaker 1>in the timing is always uncanny, you know, you always

0:35:38.600 --> 0:35:41.560
<v Speaker 1>kind of dropped something at a moment when something is

0:35:41.600 --> 0:35:45.319
<v Speaker 1>either good for Trump or you know, it's it's not

0:35:45.400 --> 0:35:49.120
<v Speaker 1>by accident, and so that's uh that And um, so

0:35:49.200 --> 0:35:52.319
<v Speaker 1>I was just wondering what you think. I don't know.

0:35:52.440 --> 0:35:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I can't read into Mueller's you know, Ruller's

0:35:55.680 --> 0:35:57.360
<v Speaker 1>thinking on this. And unfortunately, I don't think we have

0:35:57.360 --> 0:35:59.040
<v Speaker 1>time for the movie quote, Kenny, because we've got to

0:35:59.080 --> 0:36:02.080
<v Speaker 1>go into ah our next hour here. But thank you

0:36:02.760 --> 0:36:04.600
<v Speaker 1>thanks for calling her brother. I appreciate it. Good to

0:36:04.640 --> 0:36:06.319
<v Speaker 1>hear from you and just just hear your voice from

0:36:06.360 --> 0:36:08.960
<v Speaker 1>up in Boston. Kenny. It uh, it's giving us a

0:36:08.960 --> 0:36:12.600
<v Speaker 1>little boost here, which is great. So we're gonna be

0:36:12.640 --> 0:36:15.040
<v Speaker 1>joined by our friend of Michael Malice here shortly, we'll

0:36:15.080 --> 0:36:17.319
<v Speaker 1>be talking to us about North Korea. He's got some

0:36:17.320 --> 0:36:19.279
<v Speaker 1>really interesting insights on it. Given the summit is just

0:36:19.360 --> 0:36:25.200
<v Speaker 1>days away, so stare right there. The FBI calls home

0:36:25.239 --> 0:36:28.240

0:36:30.960 --> 0:36:33.440

0:36:40.120 --> 0:36:42.640
<v Speaker 1>it's terrifying. And it's not just here at home. All

<v Speaker 1>Committee aid was arrested, James Wolfe. But he was arrested

0:38:06.640 --> 0:38:10.160
<v Speaker 1>for lying to investigators about his contacts with three reporters.

0:38:11.640 --> 0:38:13.640

0:38:21.120 --> 0:38:23.160
<v Speaker 1>even just talking to Oh no, yeah, he never ever

0:38:23.200 --> 0:38:28.680
<v Speaker 1>gave classified information to journalists. Uh, Mr Wolfe, According to

0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:32.080
<v Speaker 1>this the Intelligence Committee's director of security, Oh wow, look

0:38:32.080 --> 0:38:34.120
<v Speaker 1>at that. The director of securities later to appear before

0:38:34.120 --> 0:38:38.400
<v Speaker 1>a federal jury today. And his case is interesting because

0:38:39.440 --> 0:38:43.560
<v Speaker 1>the seizure was disclosed in a letter to Ali Watkins,

0:38:44.080 --> 0:38:46.880
<v Speaker 1>a New York Times reporter who had been in a

0:38:47.080 --> 0:38:52.560
<v Speaker 1>three year long relationship with Mr Wolfe. Now there's a

0:38:52.560 --> 0:38:57.040
<v Speaker 1>lot going on here. There's a lot happening here, and

0:38:57.080 --> 0:39:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I will just say this. Uh. First of all, I

0:39:01.320 --> 0:39:05.920
<v Speaker 1>I do not like I I am very uncomfortable with,

0:39:06.000 --> 0:39:14.319
<v Speaker 1>as a general matter, any seizure of journalists records for

0:39:14.400 --> 0:39:17.080
<v Speaker 1>the purpose of finding leaks. I think that it is

0:39:17.400 --> 0:39:20.160
<v Speaker 1>a slippery slope. I think it is dangerous unless there's

0:39:20.200 --> 0:39:26.160
<v Speaker 1>a very clear um national security safety rationale behind it.

0:39:26.680 --> 0:39:29.200
<v Speaker 1>You know. I think you have to balance out because

0:39:29.280 --> 0:39:31.480
<v Speaker 1>when once the government can start seizing your all your

0:39:31.480 --> 0:39:33.759
<v Speaker 1>communications and tracking down your sources, I mean, there's really

0:39:33.800 --> 0:39:36.880
<v Speaker 1>no such thing as sources anymore, right for for journalists,

0:39:36.920 --> 0:39:41.680
<v Speaker 1>So that becomes an issue except in the most extreme circumstances.

0:39:41.719 --> 0:39:44.880
<v Speaker 1>So I do want to say that. I will also

0:39:44.920 --> 0:39:47.040
<v Speaker 1>say that one of the problems that the media has

0:39:47.120 --> 0:39:54.200
<v Speaker 1>here is that they had a a moderated response, a

0:39:54.360 --> 0:39:59.440
<v Speaker 1>a kind of muted response, shall we say, to the

0:39:59.480 --> 0:40:05.520
<v Speaker 1>fact that the Obama administration use the Espionage Act more

0:40:05.560 --> 0:40:10.160
<v Speaker 1>than every administration before it combined, listed James Rosen a

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Fox News as an unindicted co conspirator in one League case,

0:40:15.120 --> 0:40:19.759
<v Speaker 1>and that Obama was the worst, the worst president when

0:40:19.800 --> 0:40:22.120
<v Speaker 1>it came to press freedom, since at least Woodrow Wilson,

0:40:23.040 --> 0:40:25.520
<v Speaker 1>who was really bad. I wanted to lock people up

0:40:25.520 --> 0:40:30.720
<v Speaker 1>for say anything you didn't like. So Obama was terrible

0:40:30.719 --> 0:40:34.480
<v Speaker 1>in this issue. Yes, they would write some editorials here

0:40:34.520 --> 0:40:36.600
<v Speaker 1>and they're saying, you know, we are uncomfortable with whatever.

0:40:36.640 --> 0:40:40.960
<v Speaker 1>But they didn't say attorney general needs to step it,

0:40:41.120 --> 0:40:46.759
<v Speaker 1>needs to resign. They didn't uh scream about police state

0:40:46.800 --> 0:40:51.080
<v Speaker 1>tactics or tyranny. And because they allowed Obama largely to

0:40:51.120 --> 0:40:54.640
<v Speaker 1>get away with it without any political consequences, which is true,

0:40:55.040 --> 0:40:57.279
<v Speaker 1>and it was really the fault of the DOJ and

0:40:57.360 --> 0:41:00.720
<v Speaker 1>the federal government. It wasn't really Obama's fault that this happened,

0:41:00.719 --> 0:41:02.560
<v Speaker 1>even though it would have gone directly up to hold her.

0:41:02.920 --> 0:41:05.000
<v Speaker 1>His attorney general and holder would have signed off on it.

0:41:08.360 --> 0:41:10.400
<v Speaker 1>But you will see the double standard in action to

0:41:10.560 --> 0:41:14.279
<v Speaker 1>be sure, um, and they're aware of the fact that

0:41:14.320 --> 0:41:18.680
<v Speaker 1>we are aware that Obama did exactly this kind of

0:41:18.680 --> 0:41:22.640
<v Speaker 1>thing where he would see his reporters communications records looking

0:41:22.680 --> 0:41:27.319
<v Speaker 1>for leaks. Uh. And so that means that there will

0:41:27.360 --> 0:41:30.640
<v Speaker 1>be a hypocrisy here, But it also means that they

0:41:30.680 --> 0:41:33.959
<v Speaker 1>don't really care because they will often they will often

0:41:33.960 --> 0:41:39.399
<v Speaker 1>tell stories that are incongruous with objective and objective view

0:41:39.440 --> 0:41:44.880
<v Speaker 1>of the situation. So remember that one and then another

0:41:44.920 --> 0:41:46.360
<v Speaker 1>part of this that I think, you know, I'm not

0:41:46.400 --> 0:41:49.680
<v Speaker 1>spending much on the Watkins New York Times. She's sleeping

0:41:49.680 --> 0:41:54.480
<v Speaker 1>with somebody who is allegedly a source and also is

0:41:54.520 --> 0:41:58.279
<v Speaker 1>writing stuff on Twitter about how she she was trying

0:41:58.280 --> 0:42:01.759
<v Speaker 1>to throw people off the scent by lying and accusing

0:42:01.840 --> 0:42:07.520
<v Speaker 1>Trump lawyers. I think it was of you know, the league,

0:42:07.800 --> 0:42:11.160
<v Speaker 1>for which she was responded or she was around with

0:42:11.160 --> 0:42:12.560
<v Speaker 1>the league, but for publishing the league she knew the

0:42:12.640 --> 0:42:18.200
<v Speaker 1>leaguer was. It wasn't troub lawyers. So she's engaged in propaganda.

0:42:18.200 --> 0:42:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean that is straight. She is engaged in in

0:42:21.520 --> 0:42:26.600
<v Speaker 1>peddling falsehoods two tell the public, you know, to create

0:42:26.680 --> 0:42:30.800
<v Speaker 1>a an untrue perception in the public's mind. For a reporter,

0:42:30.880 --> 0:42:33.759
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a pretty big deal. You know, when

0:42:33.800 --> 0:42:39.560
<v Speaker 1>you know something is untrue and you tell people as

0:42:39.560 --> 0:42:44.040
<v Speaker 1>a reporter that it is true, that should be an issue.

0:42:45.360 --> 0:42:48.719
<v Speaker 1>So that's That's one but the single most important part

0:42:48.719 --> 0:42:50.279
<v Speaker 1>of all this for me, because like I said, there's

0:42:50.280 --> 0:42:54.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of different angles of this, is that Trump's

0:42:54.080 --> 0:42:56.680
<v Speaker 1>arrangement syndrome is so strong and the hatred of this

0:42:56.719 --> 0:42:59.880
<v Speaker 1>president is so strong that and I'm saying that they

0:43:00.040 --> 0:43:04.799
<v Speaker 1>think that this was about the Uh, here we go.

0:43:04.840 --> 0:43:06.120
<v Speaker 1>This is what they write, and this is a New

0:43:06.200 --> 0:43:09.440
<v Speaker 1>York Times piece. Court documents described Mr Wolf's communications with

0:43:09.480 --> 0:43:14.680
<v Speaker 1>four reporters, including Miss Watkins, using encrypted messaging applications. It

0:43:14.719 --> 0:43:17.640
<v Speaker 1>appeared that the FBI was investigating how Miss Watkins learned

0:43:17.680 --> 0:43:22.240
<v Speaker 1>that Russian spies in had tried to recruit Carter Page,

0:43:22.719 --> 0:43:26.800
<v Speaker 1>a former Trump foreign policy adviser. She published an article

0:43:26.800 --> 0:43:30.400
<v Speaker 1>for BuzzFeed News on April seventeen about the attempted recruitment

0:43:30.400 --> 0:43:34.200
<v Speaker 1>of Mr Page, in which he confirmed the contacts. So

0:43:35.960 --> 0:43:38.360
<v Speaker 1>this is all about the Carter Page Russell conspiracy theory,

0:43:38.840 --> 0:43:43.160
<v Speaker 1>conspiracy theory. Thank folks, Now we found the first one.

0:43:44.120 --> 0:43:47.439
<v Speaker 1>We found the first person who was willing to risk

0:43:47.480 --> 0:43:50.640
<v Speaker 1>prison time assuming he's guilty. It's alleged. It's alleged, right,

0:43:50.640 --> 0:43:52.120
<v Speaker 1>we don't know, We don't know. We gotta keep that,

0:43:52.520 --> 0:43:57.640
<v Speaker 1>keep that out there. But here we likely have our

0:43:57.680 --> 0:44:02.439
<v Speaker 1>first of many leak, the first of many leakers who

0:44:02.640 --> 0:44:05.640
<v Speaker 1>looking at this, we have to assume there'll be a

0:44:05.680 --> 0:44:13.200
<v Speaker 1>lot more. We'll have to guess that at some point

0:44:13.200 --> 0:44:17.839
<v Speaker 1>they'll figure out who told the press about the Kisliak

0:44:18.040 --> 0:44:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Flynn call. Never mind all that, so many of these

0:44:21.719 --> 0:44:24.239
<v Speaker 1>stories and these these journalists look, oh, we're doing such

0:44:24.280 --> 0:44:27.000
<v Speaker 1>great work. No, they just get somebody to break the law,

0:44:27.080 --> 0:44:28.399
<v Speaker 1>tell them something're not supposed to do, and then they

0:44:28.480 --> 0:44:31.480
<v Speaker 1>run a story with it. A lot of times. Consequences

0:44:31.520 --> 0:44:38.360
<v Speaker 1>be damned. I don't care, but people are leaking against

0:44:38.400 --> 0:44:41.520
<v Speaker 1>this president in a way that puts them in criminal jeopardy.

0:44:42.000 --> 0:44:44.360
<v Speaker 1>That just shows you the depth of the hatred. And

0:44:44.400 --> 0:44:49.000
<v Speaker 1>it shows you also how committed some of these deep

0:44:49.040 --> 0:44:55.239
<v Speaker 1>staters really are to the notion of stopping this Trump presidency.

0:44:56.360 --> 0:44:57.960
<v Speaker 1>They'll risk go into prison. Some of them are going

0:44:58.000 --> 0:45:01.719
<v Speaker 1>to go to prison over this. Was it worth it?

0:45:01.800 --> 0:45:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Was it worth running a story in BuzzFeed? You know,

0:45:06.080 --> 0:45:08.719
<v Speaker 1>being the source for the story in BuzzFeed that put

0:45:08.760 --> 0:45:12.360
<v Speaker 1>it out there, the carter Page, who is is harmless

0:45:12.400 --> 0:45:16.000
<v Speaker 1>by virtue of nothing else but his ineptitude. The Carter

0:45:16.040 --> 0:45:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Page was gonna be recruited by the by Russia. You know,

0:45:22.360 --> 0:45:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I really think that people are gonna have a lot

0:45:26.120 --> 0:45:28.840
<v Speaker 1>of regrets about this. But Jeff Sessions, that's right, and

0:45:28.880 --> 0:45:30.480
<v Speaker 1>the d o J they're on it. They're gonna find

0:45:30.480 --> 0:45:33.600
<v Speaker 1>more people, and we are going to find some swamp

0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:36.120
<v Speaker 1>figures that I think you've heard of before involved in

0:45:36.120 --> 0:45:40.319
<v Speaker 1>this mark my words. I would take some guesses right now,

0:45:40.360 --> 0:45:43.399
<v Speaker 1>but that might be a little unfair. But their names

0:45:43.400 --> 0:45:46.920
<v Speaker 1>you've heard before on this show. Let's talk about North Korea.

0:45:46.960 --> 0:45:50.839
<v Speaker 1>Come ou up here in just a moment. Hey, it's

0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:53.000
<v Speaker 1>a jungle out there, right. You gotta make sure that

0:45:53.080 --> 0:45:55.279
<v Speaker 1>you do everything you can to have the best information

0:45:55.360 --> 0:45:58.960
<v Speaker 1>possible on hand. When you are bringing new employees into

0:45:59.000 --> 0:46:02.320
<v Speaker 1>your company and you're thinking about renting out of property

0:46:02.360 --> 0:46:06.440
<v Speaker 1>that you own or engaged in other business to business transactions.

0:46:06.480 --> 0:46:09.799
<v Speaker 1>That's where Global Verification Network becomes so important to you

0:46:10.080 --> 0:46:14.560
<v Speaker 1>because they are a veteran owned small business that specializes

0:46:14.800 --> 0:46:19.480
<v Speaker 1>in risk mitigation and background investigations. They're headquartered in Chicago.

0:46:19.560 --> 0:46:21.560
<v Speaker 1>They work with startups all the way up to Fortune

0:46:21.880 --> 0:46:24.880
<v Speaker 1>one companies. So no matter how bigger business or small

0:46:24.920 --> 0:46:28.959
<v Speaker 1>your business, if you have any need of background investigations

0:46:28.960 --> 0:46:32.160
<v Speaker 1>and vetting, you should really call the folks at Global

0:46:32.280 --> 0:46:36.399
<v Speaker 1>Verification Network eight seven seven six nine five eleven seventy nine.

0:46:36.600 --> 0:46:40.319
<v Speaker 1>That's eight seven seven s nine, Or go to my

0:46:40.840 --> 0:46:45.840
<v Speaker 1>GVN dot com. That's my GVN dot com for Global

0:46:46.200 --> 0:46:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Verification Network. It is more likely than not that there

0:46:59.680 --> 0:47:03.480
<v Speaker 1>is a on fl possibly a full blown war with

0:47:03.520 --> 0:47:06.520
<v Speaker 1>an allerging nuclear power. He is not merely being cavalier

0:47:07.000 --> 0:47:09.840
<v Speaker 1>with a threat about nuclear war. He's being cavalier in

0:47:09.880 --> 0:47:12.279
<v Speaker 1>a way that it makes him seem demented. These are

0:47:12.280 --> 0:47:14.399
<v Speaker 1>the messages from a person who is not well, from

0:47:14.440 --> 0:47:17.040
<v Speaker 1>a leader who is not fit for office, after a

0:47:17.200 --> 0:47:20.760
<v Speaker 1>nuclear holocaust or after a million dollars, And that's where

0:47:20.760 --> 0:47:24.080
<v Speaker 1>we are. This is not an exaggeration, probably closer to

0:47:24.719 --> 0:47:28.640
<v Speaker 1>an outright war with North Korea. Got a chance of war,

0:47:28.680 --> 0:47:31.640
<v Speaker 1>I'd say from where I sit right now, easily construe

0:47:31.719 --> 0:47:34.319
<v Speaker 1>what he's been saying as a declaration or at least

0:47:34.320 --> 0:47:36.640
<v Speaker 1>a threat of war. What is the ignition point for

0:47:36.719 --> 0:47:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Kim and Moon's fuse with this provrocative rhetoric. Trump's comments

0:47:40.160 --> 0:47:44.279
<v Speaker 1>about nuclear weapons have experts worried he could literally inadvertently

0:47:44.280 --> 0:47:47.319
<v Speaker 1>trigger a catastrophe. You have reason to be scared of

0:47:47.400 --> 0:47:50.480
<v Speaker 1>a war that could wipe out five thousand people. Now

0:47:50.560 --> 0:47:52.520
<v Speaker 1>I just think he wants to use nukes. That's what

0:47:52.600 --> 0:47:55.680
<v Speaker 1>I think he feels. Dylan ever, accused the media of

0:47:55.719 --> 0:47:59.440
<v Speaker 1>being lazy when it comes to fearmongering. That's incredible. I

0:47:59.440 --> 0:48:03.160
<v Speaker 1>think he wants to use nukes, Thanks, Mika. Yeah, that's what.

0:48:03.320 --> 0:48:05.280
<v Speaker 1>He just wants to start nuking people. That's the President

0:48:05.280 --> 0:48:07.839
<v Speaker 1>Trump wants. We got a summit coming up next week,

0:48:07.880 --> 0:48:10.080
<v Speaker 1>as you know, folks, a big summit, and we may

0:48:10.120 --> 0:48:13.480
<v Speaker 1>be closer to a deal with North Korea than at

0:48:13.520 --> 0:48:17.680
<v Speaker 1>at any time and certainly recent memory. Um. But I

0:48:17.719 --> 0:48:20.319
<v Speaker 1>want to get someone else's perspective on this, as we

0:48:20.360 --> 0:48:24.960
<v Speaker 1>are literally days away from finding out if there's an

0:48:25.000 --> 0:48:27.359
<v Speaker 1>opening or not for the US and North Korea. We've

0:48:27.360 --> 0:48:30.040
<v Speaker 1>got Michael Malice with us on the line. He is

0:48:30.080 --> 0:48:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the host of Your Welcome and also the author of

0:48:34.239 --> 0:48:38.799
<v Speaker 1>Dear Reader, the unauthorized biography of Kim Jong Michael. Great

0:48:38.800 --> 0:48:42.080
<v Speaker 1>to have you back, sir. Thanks. What do you make

0:48:42.160 --> 0:48:44.759
<v Speaker 1>of this going into the summit? What are your expectations?

0:48:44.840 --> 0:48:49.080
<v Speaker 1>How do you think it's going so far that the

0:48:49.120 --> 0:48:53.719
<v Speaker 1>American media is just as accurate in their provocations as

0:48:53.719 --> 0:48:56.879
<v Speaker 1>the North Korean media. Yeah, it's it's almost like they're

0:48:56.920 --> 0:48:58.919
<v Speaker 1>cheering for nuclear war in a lot of those clips.

0:48:58.960 --> 0:49:01.160
<v Speaker 1>It's amazing, isn't it. Like as long as Trump looks bad,

0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:02.880
<v Speaker 1>they're like, yeah, so we lose a few million people

0:49:02.880 --> 0:49:06.239
<v Speaker 1>in North Korea. How are you supposed to get a

0:49:06.320 --> 0:49:10.000
<v Speaker 1>regime that has dug in its heels for literally over

0:49:10.120 --> 0:49:14.360
<v Speaker 1>seventy years, that has no problems executing its own citizens,

0:49:14.400 --> 0:49:18.760
<v Speaker 1>starving its own citizens, uh, killing members of the ruling elite.

0:49:19.200 --> 0:49:22.480
<v Speaker 1>How are you supposed to get them to change their

0:49:22.840 --> 0:49:26.839
<v Speaker 1>entire system without some brinksmanship? How are you you know,

0:49:26.920 --> 0:49:28.879
<v Speaker 1>it's let's let's look at it this way in terms

0:49:28.880 --> 0:49:30.760
<v Speaker 1>that anyone can understand. Buck, you and I are buddies.

0:49:31.280 --> 0:49:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's suppose I had an issue with you. If I

0:49:33.719 --> 0:49:37.719
<v Speaker 1>brought it up and escalated situations, there's a possibility it's

0:49:37.719 --> 0:49:40.279
<v Speaker 1>going to get heated. But if you want things to

0:49:40.360 --> 0:49:43.560
<v Speaker 1>change in a relationship, that's the risk anyone has to take,

0:49:43.760 --> 0:49:46.520
<v Speaker 1>whether it's selling a car or there's a problem with

0:49:46.560 --> 0:49:49.360
<v Speaker 1>your landlord. I mean, these people are living in the

0:49:49.400 --> 0:49:53.359
<v Speaker 1>world where they've never really had to take risks other

0:49:53.400 --> 0:49:56.480
<v Speaker 1>than running their mouths, and there's never any consequences for them.

0:49:56.719 --> 0:50:00.120
<v Speaker 1>And that's why it upsets them when President Trump is

0:50:00.160 --> 0:50:04.319
<v Speaker 1>actually forcing change of some kind on the Korean peninsula.

0:50:04.520 --> 0:50:07.920
<v Speaker 1>And here's the other thing. They're acting like he's you know,

0:50:08.000 --> 0:50:10.640
<v Speaker 1>like like in some kind of weird simulation and he's

0:50:10.640 --> 0:50:12.640
<v Speaker 1>in the front of computer and not getting in for anyone.

0:50:12.960 --> 0:50:18.800
<v Speaker 1>He's having regular public meetings with China, Japan, and South Korea.

0:50:18.880 --> 0:50:21.960
<v Speaker 1>We're flying they're they're flying here, but they're acting as if,

0:50:22.000 --> 0:50:24.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's some kind of toddler who is not

0:50:24.440 --> 0:50:27.040
<v Speaker 1>talking to anyone and it's just making decisions on his own,

0:50:27.239 --> 0:50:30.799
<v Speaker 1>and yet somehows all working out. It's astonishing to hear

0:50:30.840 --> 0:50:33.960
<v Speaker 1>how many people who have no particular insight into the

0:50:34.000 --> 0:50:38.520
<v Speaker 1>president's daily schedule, phone calls, preparation meetings with aids, and

0:50:38.600 --> 0:50:42.200
<v Speaker 1>and officials around him who are saying he hasn't prepped enough.

0:50:42.360 --> 0:50:44.319
<v Speaker 1>Hearing that a lot he hasn't prepped it up, what

0:50:44.360 --> 0:50:46.720
<v Speaker 1>does it even mean, Michael, I mean, yeah, he doesn't

0:50:46.719 --> 0:50:49.240
<v Speaker 1>speak Korean and he's not going to before the meeting.

0:50:49.280 --> 0:50:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Like it just seems to me like this is something

0:50:52.040 --> 0:50:53.919
<v Speaker 1>that people say when they have nothing else to say

0:50:53.920 --> 0:50:56.239
<v Speaker 1>but they hate the president. Well, it's also the kind

0:50:56.239 --> 0:50:58.080
<v Speaker 1>of thing where it's like, do they really think that

0:50:58.280 --> 0:51:01.919
<v Speaker 1>as soon as the Singapore summit ends, President Trump's gonna

0:51:02.000 --> 0:51:04.920
<v Speaker 1>join Kim Jong un on a flight to Pyongyang and

0:51:04.960 --> 0:51:07.680
<v Speaker 1>they personally are going to start taking apart this nuclear site.

0:51:08.160 --> 0:51:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean that that's not how it works. I mean

0:51:10.520 --> 0:51:13.879
<v Speaker 1>the preparation he's had, by all accounts, a great deal

0:51:13.920 --> 0:51:16.600
<v Speaker 1>of preparation. Uh, he's been first of all, as he's

0:51:16.640 --> 0:51:19.480
<v Speaker 1>been president for almost two years at this point, do

0:51:19.560 --> 0:51:21.920
<v Speaker 1>they expect only someone who has been a North Korean

0:51:22.000 --> 0:51:26.080
<v Speaker 1>scholar to engage with the North Korean regime? Do we

0:51:26.160 --> 0:51:29.560
<v Speaker 1>really think that the Chinese President g and Prime Minister

0:51:29.680 --> 0:51:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Abbe from Japan didn't sit him down and say these

0:51:32.719 --> 0:51:36.000
<v Speaker 1>are the important points? Are they stupid too? I mean,

0:51:36.040 --> 0:51:38.759
<v Speaker 1>this makes no sense in any level because and here's

0:51:38.760 --> 0:51:39.960
<v Speaker 1>why I wrote the book, and this is you know,

0:51:39.960 --> 0:51:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you have me on in this issue. North

0:51:42.080 --> 0:51:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Korea is a very very complicated subject. No one denies this.

0:51:46.719 --> 0:51:49.520
<v Speaker 1>So maybe because they feel unprepared to talk about it,

0:51:49.800 --> 0:51:52.440
<v Speaker 1>they're they're projecting to some extent. And my rule of

0:51:52.520 --> 0:51:54.880
<v Speaker 1>thumb is if someone doesn't know how to pronounce Kim

0:51:54.960 --> 0:51:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Jong UN's name, they shouldn't be running them out. Now,

0:51:58.760 --> 0:52:01.000
<v Speaker 1>do just just one I should I wanted to throw

0:52:01.040 --> 0:52:04.759
<v Speaker 1>by you, Michael, what should we know about one of

0:52:04.800 --> 0:52:09.520
<v Speaker 1>the differences between Kim Jong n as it affects his

0:52:09.600 --> 0:52:14.320
<v Speaker 1>persona and the ability to you know, our our ability

0:52:14.320 --> 0:52:17.080
<v Speaker 1>in the past to try and negotiate with him versus

0:52:17.760 --> 0:52:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Kim Jong Il. I'm sorry, Kim Jong il in the

0:52:20.400 --> 0:52:23.560
<v Speaker 1>past versus Kim Jong owen today? You know, what should

0:52:23.600 --> 0:52:26.520
<v Speaker 1>we What are the differences that maybe either leave us

0:52:26.520 --> 0:52:28.400
<v Speaker 1>more of an opening here or less of an opening.

0:52:29.200 --> 0:52:32.160
<v Speaker 1>That's a very, very long and nuanced question. I'll answer

0:52:32.200 --> 0:52:35.520
<v Speaker 1>it as distinctly as possible. Kim Jong il took over

0:52:35.560 --> 0:52:37.799
<v Speaker 1>for his father, the great leader, Kim Il sung. They've

0:52:37.840 --> 0:52:40.520
<v Speaker 1>only been three leaders of North Korea since its founding,

0:52:40.960 --> 0:52:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and Kim Jong il was very much a function of

0:52:44.000 --> 0:52:47.200
<v Speaker 1>the Cold War, and he also very much had to

0:52:47.800 --> 0:52:51.560
<v Speaker 1>fight to maintain his hold on power because in the

0:52:51.640 --> 0:52:54.480
<v Speaker 1>idea of in the ideology of communism, the idea that

0:52:54.520 --> 0:52:57.200
<v Speaker 1>a son would succeed his father in this kind of

0:52:57.280 --> 0:53:03.200
<v Speaker 1>monarchist fashion is complete nathema to mark societyology. But again,

0:53:03.239 --> 0:53:05.359
<v Speaker 1>with the falling of the Soviet Union in the late

0:53:05.400 --> 0:53:08.600
<v Speaker 1>eighties early nineties and the collapse of the Second World Uh,

0:53:08.960 --> 0:53:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Kim Jong un has to deal with none of that.

0:53:11.600 --> 0:53:14.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, he took power in the Soviet Union was

0:53:14.880 --> 0:53:18.480
<v Speaker 1>long gone. North Korea was already at that point highly isolated,

0:53:18.920 --> 0:53:23.360
<v Speaker 1>so he with any young person, there is that possibility

0:53:23.680 --> 0:53:27.319
<v Speaker 1>to do things differently. And he also has this kind

0:53:27.320 --> 0:53:30.480
<v Speaker 1>of leeway under North Korean law. And I'm using the

0:53:30.520 --> 0:53:33.600
<v Speaker 1>word law or broadly because there's no real legality. It's

0:53:33.640 --> 0:53:36.400
<v Speaker 1>whatever the government decides at a whim. He can do

0:53:36.440 --> 0:53:39.680
<v Speaker 1>whatever he wants, and he can spin it however he wants. So,

0:53:39.719 --> 0:53:42.520
<v Speaker 1>for example, North Korea has these black markets in every

0:53:42.520 --> 0:53:45.840
<v Speaker 1>town where because people are no longer getting food reliably

0:53:45.880 --> 0:53:48.600
<v Speaker 1>from the government. And this is you know, capitalism and

0:53:48.640 --> 0:53:51.800
<v Speaker 1>its purist but and capitalism is anathema to the duchy

0:53:51.880 --> 0:53:54.359
<v Speaker 1>idea of the North Korean ideology, but they pretend it's

0:53:54.360 --> 0:53:57.160
<v Speaker 1>not capitalism. So when you get to define terms however

0:53:57.239 --> 0:54:00.000
<v Speaker 1>where you want, that really does give you some freedom.

0:54:00.400 --> 0:54:02.520
<v Speaker 1>On the other hand, as we have seen in other

0:54:03.040 --> 0:54:06.120
<v Speaker 1>such regimes which are nowhere nearest that is North Korea,

0:54:06.280 --> 0:54:08.760
<v Speaker 1>but I'm thinking of places like Romania as a classic example,

0:54:09.000 --> 0:54:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Iraq and Libya. When these regimes fall, the people at

0:54:12.719 --> 0:54:17.600
<v Speaker 1>the top are often personally executed. He had a rough end,

0:54:18.320 --> 0:54:21.120
<v Speaker 1>yes he did, So that is a big and they're

0:54:21.239 --> 0:54:23.720
<v Speaker 1>very very very painfully aware of this in North Korea.

0:54:24.080 --> 0:54:26.120
<v Speaker 1>So this is a very big you know, North Korea

0:54:26.120 --> 0:54:28.800
<v Speaker 1>as a prison even for the people the very top,

0:54:29.280 --> 0:54:31.680
<v Speaker 1>because if he does want to liberalize and make it

0:54:32.120 --> 0:54:34.560
<v Speaker 1>kind of like a Singapore, people are going to very

0:54:34.640 --> 0:54:37.640
<v Speaker 1>quickly find out the population that they've been brainwashed lives

0:54:37.640 --> 0:54:40.360
<v Speaker 1>too and starved intentionally for decades, and they're not going

0:54:40.400 --> 0:54:43.560
<v Speaker 1>to think, oh, you're a great guy. You know, They're

0:54:43.600 --> 0:54:47.440
<v Speaker 1>going to want to exact vengeance, and fairly they're not

0:54:47.440 --> 0:54:50.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna look at him like a Gelsten. How then, do

0:54:50.840 --> 0:54:53.239
<v Speaker 1>do we set up a framework? I mean, what is

0:54:53.320 --> 0:54:56.719
<v Speaker 1>the what does a deal with North Korea that can

0:54:56.800 --> 0:54:59.880
<v Speaker 1>actually work in the broadest strokes, Michael, what is it

0:55:00.000 --> 0:55:03.080
<v Speaker 1>look like? I The way I think in the broadest

0:55:03.080 --> 0:55:06.399
<v Speaker 1>strokes should be sort of a relay race where we're

0:55:06.480 --> 0:55:10.279
<v Speaker 1>handing over the baton to China, because North Korea will

0:55:10.320 --> 0:55:15.200
<v Speaker 1>always be primarily China's problem there, they're geographically approximate. Historically,

0:55:15.200 --> 0:55:19.200
<v Speaker 1>there's long strong bonds between Korea and China UM, and

0:55:19.280 --> 0:55:21.720
<v Speaker 1>China doesn't want a US allied right on their border,

0:55:22.160 --> 0:55:24.359
<v Speaker 1>UM and so on and so forth. It says they

0:55:24.400 --> 0:55:27.560
<v Speaker 1>have a very strong relationship, So a lot of it

0:55:27.600 --> 0:55:29.880
<v Speaker 1>has to be also this kind of good cop bad cop,

0:55:30.200 --> 0:55:33.400
<v Speaker 1>which I think President Trump and President are playing very well,

0:55:33.640 --> 0:55:37.000
<v Speaker 1>which is China gets to be the reasonable statesman, Trump

0:55:37.040 --> 0:55:40.040
<v Speaker 1>gets to be the unreliable blow hard and that drives

0:55:40.120 --> 0:55:43.080
<v Speaker 1>Kim Jong un for there's the China's arms. So that

0:55:43.280 --> 0:55:47.279
<v Speaker 1>is a good mechanism to move forward. And listen, if

0:55:47.280 --> 0:55:50.000
<v Speaker 1>they want us to remove our troops from the Korean

0:55:50.000 --> 0:55:52.840
<v Speaker 1>peninsula and in exchange they you know, they have the

0:55:52.880 --> 0:55:55.520
<v Speaker 1>fourth largest army in the world, even though they're South Pennsylvania.

0:55:55.719 --> 0:55:59.280
<v Speaker 1>If in exchange they demilitarized and denuclearized, spend less money

0:55:59.280 --> 0:56:02.360
<v Speaker 1>on the army, spend more money on food and infrastructure

0:56:02.640 --> 0:56:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and things like that, I think that would be a

0:56:04.440 --> 0:56:08.160
<v Speaker 1>win win all across. And my biggest concern always is

0:56:08.920 --> 0:56:13.960
<v Speaker 1>liberating these peacefully, liberating these twenty five million slaves. Absolutely

0:56:14.000 --> 0:56:17.240
<v Speaker 1>I agree, and that's why I find it so honestly

0:56:17.280 --> 0:56:19.720
<v Speaker 1>discussing that people in the in the media in particular,

0:56:19.760 --> 0:56:22.520
<v Speaker 1>seem to be rooting for failure here quite openly, I

0:56:22.520 --> 0:56:26.040
<v Speaker 1>think rooting for failure and and buck How are human

0:56:26.120 --> 0:56:30.719
<v Speaker 1>rights a partisan issue? It is mind boggling to me

0:56:31.200 --> 0:56:36.439
<v Speaker 1>when we have literal concentration camps where people are dismembered

0:56:36.840 --> 0:56:40.080
<v Speaker 1>men are sent into minds and they never see sunlight again,

0:56:40.400 --> 0:56:43.080
<v Speaker 1>and their skin starts to slough off. These are things

0:56:43.080 --> 0:56:46.560
<v Speaker 1>that are unimaginable to us in the West. Any kind

0:56:46.600 --> 0:56:50.160
<v Speaker 1>of sliver of hope we have to hold onto. If

0:56:50.160 --> 0:56:53.200
<v Speaker 1>you want to hear President Trump, go ahead, pay President Trump.

0:56:53.520 --> 0:56:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Pretend he's the puppet of the Japanese and the Chinese

0:56:55.880 --> 0:56:57.680
<v Speaker 1>in the South Koreans. If that's what it takes for

0:56:57.719 --> 0:57:00.279
<v Speaker 1>you to suade your conscious that you're rooting for happy

0:57:00.400 --> 0:57:04.600
<v Speaker 1>ending to this nightmare worst country on Earth. Everybody should

<v Speaker 1>America because we have equity, and guess what they'll steal

0:57:40.400 --> 0:57:43.680
<v Speaker 1>that equity. They will take you off your home's title

0:57:43.720 --> 0:57:46.560
<v Speaker 1>and add an alias, then borrow hundreds of thousands of

0:57:46.600 --> 0:57:49.800
<v Speaker 1>dollars using your home's equity, and then sticking you with

0:57:49.880 --> 0:57:52.240

<v Speaker 1>with you now because when it comes to the fight

0:59:37.800 --> 0:59:44.800
<v Speaker 1>for truth, the fuck never stops. I love our country.

0:59:45.520 --> 0:59:49.320
<v Speaker 1>I have been Russia's worst nightfare. If Hillary got in,

0:59:49.480 --> 0:59:52.320
<v Speaker 1>I think books is probably going. Man. I wish Hillary

0:59:52.360 --> 0:59:55.680
<v Speaker 1>one because you see what I do. But with that

0:59:55.880 --> 0:59:59.240
<v Speaker 1>being said, Rush here should be in this stated. Why

0:59:59.240 --> 1:00:02.280
<v Speaker 1>are we having him meetings without rug yet being in

1:00:02.320 --> 1:00:06.640
<v Speaker 1>the meeting as I would recommend, and sits up to them,

1:00:07.280 --> 1:00:09.360
<v Speaker 1>but Russia should be in the meeting, it should be

1:00:09.520 --> 1:00:14.960
<v Speaker 1>part of it. Oh my, they're very upset at Trump

1:00:15.000 --> 1:00:17.840
<v Speaker 1>about this, or I should say, they're using this as

1:00:17.960 --> 1:00:23.720
<v Speaker 1>a as a means to try and further create this

1:00:23.880 --> 1:00:31.160
<v Speaker 1>narrative of you know, Trump is in Russia's pocket. Uh,

1:00:31.240 --> 1:00:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Russia has something on Trump. And you keep hearing this stuff,

1:00:34.080 --> 1:00:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, what what are they talking about? You mean

1:00:37.880 --> 1:00:41.840
<v Speaker 1>that the Trump who is willing to do things that

1:00:42.040 --> 1:00:45.360
<v Speaker 1>even Obama would not do, like give anti tank missiles,

1:00:45.840 --> 1:00:50.800
<v Speaker 1>javelin anti tech missiles and and UH sniper rifles to

1:00:50.920 --> 1:00:54.840
<v Speaker 1>the Ukrainian military as they can fight against Russian separatists

1:00:54.920 --> 1:00:59.960
<v Speaker 1>or Russian backed separatists. That that in the pocket Trump.

1:01:01.000 --> 1:01:04.240
<v Speaker 1>It's amazing how much the shift has occurred. It used

1:01:04.240 --> 1:01:07.120
<v Speaker 1>to be pretty clear most folks had an understanding of

1:01:07.160 --> 1:01:12.600
<v Speaker 1>the fact that if you you know, there's certain countries

1:01:12.600 --> 1:01:14.400
<v Speaker 1>that you can try and just isolate and cut off.

1:01:15.240 --> 1:01:17.480
<v Speaker 1>And for example, we've tried that with North Korea, although

1:01:17.480 --> 1:01:22.000
<v Speaker 1>we've had limited success, because cutting off an entire country

1:01:22.040 --> 1:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>from the rest of the world and preventing it from

1:01:23.800 --> 1:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>being a problem is a lot easier said than done.

1:01:26.920 --> 1:01:28.880
<v Speaker 1>But do we try that to some extent with Iran.

1:01:29.160 --> 1:01:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Russia is too big to ignore, and the purpose of

1:01:34.400 --> 1:01:36.840
<v Speaker 1>the sanctions that have put and put been put in play,

1:01:36.920 --> 1:01:41.240
<v Speaker 1>stretching back to Russia's annexation of crime is to get

1:01:41.240 --> 1:01:46.000
<v Speaker 1>a change in Russian behavior. The additional sanctions that have

1:01:46.040 --> 1:01:48.400
<v Speaker 1>to do with the election interference is also supposed to

1:01:48.400 --> 1:01:50.800
<v Speaker 1>be a change in Russian behavior. Although I would note,

1:01:51.560 --> 1:01:54.600
<v Speaker 1>how are the Russians I'm just playing devil's advocate here

1:01:54.600 --> 1:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>for a second, how are the Russians exactly supposed to

1:01:57.160 --> 1:02:01.920
<v Speaker 1>get the election interference related sanction is turned off? How

1:02:01.920 --> 1:02:04.240
<v Speaker 1>does that happen? Really? Think about that one for a second.

1:02:05.480 --> 1:02:08.320
<v Speaker 1>People will say, oh, buck, they're still interfering. Really, we

1:02:08.480 --> 1:02:11.840
<v Speaker 1>know that top down, the Kremlin is telling people to

1:02:11.880 --> 1:02:15.960
<v Speaker 1>interfere in our upcoming midterms. We you know, we we

1:02:16.040 --> 1:02:18.600
<v Speaker 1>might have seen some preparations somewhere. There could be some

1:02:19.840 --> 1:02:22.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, intelligence collection that leads us to believe that

1:02:22.520 --> 1:02:25.240
<v Speaker 1>they want to do that, But we have sanctions in

1:02:25.280 --> 1:02:28.120
<v Speaker 1>place against them for the election interference before. And I

1:02:28.160 --> 1:02:30.960
<v Speaker 1>would just note that it doesn't seem to me like

1:02:31.000 --> 1:02:33.400
<v Speaker 1>that's an easy thing for them, even if they wanted

1:02:33.440 --> 1:02:39.640
<v Speaker 1>to to turn around, because all it takes is some

1:02:39.760 --> 1:02:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Russian hackers or some skilled Russian you know, cyber warriors

1:02:44.560 --> 1:02:46.520
<v Speaker 1>of one kind or another, to decide that they're going

1:02:46.560 --> 1:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to engage in some kind of hack of the election,

1:02:48.360 --> 1:02:51.480
<v Speaker 1>that they are going to make our lives more difficult

1:02:52.240 --> 1:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>come election time. And it could very easily be blamed

1:02:54.840 --> 1:02:57.640
<v Speaker 1>on Russia because the media has created this environment where

1:02:58.360 --> 1:03:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Russia is somehow a much bigger concern for US than China,

1:03:02.320 --> 1:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>even though the Russian economy is much smaller than the

1:03:05.560 --> 1:03:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Chinese economy, the Russian military is much smaller than Chinese military,

1:03:11.360 --> 1:03:17.600
<v Speaker 1>and our geo, our long term geo political, uh near

1:03:17.680 --> 1:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>pure rival is China. It is not Russia that said Russia, Well,

1:03:24.880 --> 1:03:27.680
<v Speaker 1>it isn't our our primary challenger on the global stage.

1:03:27.760 --> 1:03:29.640
<v Speaker 1>It is too big to ignore. And that's why when

1:03:29.640 --> 1:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Trump says that they should bring Russia back into the

1:03:37.400 --> 1:03:41.360
<v Speaker 1>fold on this um, I just think it's I think

1:03:41.360 --> 1:03:43.520
<v Speaker 1>it's a cheap shot, and a lot of people haven't

1:03:43.560 --> 1:03:45.800
<v Speaker 1>taken it's a cheap shot to say, oh, it's because

1:03:45.800 --> 1:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>the Russians have something on him. I think it's a

1:03:48.760 --> 1:03:52.800
<v Speaker 1>cheap shot to say, oh, well, the reason that Trump

1:03:52.800 --> 1:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>would bring the Russians back into the G seven, which

1:03:56.240 --> 1:03:59.440
<v Speaker 1>is just a way of having countries meet and a

1:03:59.440 --> 1:04:02.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of these summits. And I'll tell you this. Other

1:04:02.000 --> 1:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>people was say, oh no, these summits are so important,

1:04:05.440 --> 1:04:07.320
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of these summits. It's just an excuse

1:04:07.840 --> 1:04:10.840
<v Speaker 1>for government bureaucrats. And you know the entourages of the

1:04:10.920 --> 1:04:14.120
<v Speaker 1>various premiers to get together and spend a lot of

1:04:14.160 --> 1:04:19.600
<v Speaker 1>their their subjects money and hang out with other important

1:04:19.600 --> 1:04:24.160
<v Speaker 1>government bureaucrats and make decisions about your life. But general,

1:04:24.240 --> 1:04:26.080
<v Speaker 1>how often do they come back from someone you're like, Wow,

1:04:26.120 --> 1:04:28.360
<v Speaker 1>they got that deal going. That's going to really change

1:04:28.440 --> 1:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>my life. Answers is not. It doesn't really happen that way.

1:04:33.040 --> 1:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>But Trump wanted to bring them back into the G seven.

1:04:35.840 --> 1:04:37.360
<v Speaker 1>Is also, by the way he spoke a little bit

1:04:37.400 --> 1:04:43.440
<v Speaker 1>about trade and terrorists play clip nine. All of these

1:04:43.480 --> 1:04:47.280
<v Speaker 1>countries have been taking advantage of the United States un trade.

1:04:47.880 --> 1:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>You're so ware Canada, Georgia, Gerry farmers two hundred and

1:04:52.320 --> 1:04:56.880
<v Speaker 1>seventy terris. We don't judge them, or if we do

1:04:56.960 --> 1:05:01.840
<v Speaker 1>it like a tiny percentage. We have massive trade deficit

1:05:02.400 --> 1:05:06.920
<v Speaker 1>with almost every country. We will straighten that out. I

1:05:06.920 --> 1:05:08.960
<v Speaker 1>don't forget, and I'll tell you what it's what I do.

1:05:09.360 --> 1:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>It won't even be hard, and in the end we'll

1:05:12.040 --> 1:05:14.880
<v Speaker 1>all get along. But they understand that, you know, they're

1:05:14.880 --> 1:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>trying to act like, well, we fought with you in

1:05:17.360 --> 1:05:20.480
<v Speaker 1>the wars, which they don't mention the fact that they

1:05:20.920 --> 1:05:25.040
<v Speaker 1>have trade barriers against our farmers. They don't mention the

1:05:25.080 --> 1:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>fact that they're charging almost tariffs. You know, it's it's

1:05:32.040 --> 1:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>just a function of logic at this point. Everyone they

1:05:36.040 --> 1:05:40.320
<v Speaker 1>tell us the conventional wisdom is tariffs are bad, tariffs

1:05:40.320 --> 1:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>are attacks, and then there is a pass, a pass

1:05:44.000 --> 1:05:47.360
<v Speaker 1>of expenses on the consumer. That that's true. But tariffs

1:05:47.360 --> 1:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>are attacks, they're they're a bad idea, but other countries

1:05:52.200 --> 1:05:55.680
<v Speaker 1>have them, but we shouldn't respond to the other countries

1:05:55.680 --> 1:05:58.160
<v Speaker 1>that have them. No one ever stops to say, well,

1:05:58.200 --> 1:06:00.000
<v Speaker 1>why do other countries have them if they're such an

1:06:00.040 --> 1:06:03.960
<v Speaker 1>obviously bad idea, If there's no purpose to tariffs, if

1:06:03.960 --> 1:06:07.000
<v Speaker 1>it's just self defeating, then why and how are we

1:06:07.040 --> 1:06:09.479
<v Speaker 1>supposed to respond to the countries that's that decide that

1:06:09.520 --> 1:06:13.440
<v Speaker 1>they're going to have tariffs. Despite the fact that we're

1:06:13.480 --> 1:06:15.080
<v Speaker 1>always told, oh, it's such a bad idea. You don't

1:06:15.120 --> 1:06:18.360
<v Speaker 1>have tariffs. You don't have tariffs. Yeah, I just want

1:06:18.360 --> 1:06:21.520
<v Speaker 1>to answer that simple question. Yeah, I'm just sitting here

1:06:21.560 --> 1:06:24.880
<v Speaker 1>asking questions. I just want to know I do. I do, indeed,

1:06:25.280 --> 1:06:28.120
<v Speaker 1>But the media is full of jerk's clowns and imbeciles

1:06:28.240 --> 1:06:30.440
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of very nasty people with very sharp

1:06:30.440 --> 1:06:33.760
<v Speaker 1>elbows and very high self regard. We'll talk a bit

1:06:33.760 --> 1:06:37.000
<v Speaker 1>about where things stand with the M s M, the

1:06:37.040 --> 1:06:39.640
<v Speaker 1>mainstream media these days when it comes to Trump, and

1:06:39.640 --> 1:06:42.720
<v Speaker 1>then even when it comes to yours. Truly, that and

1:06:42.840 --> 1:06:59.240
<v Speaker 1>more is coming up in just a moment, so that

1:06:59.280 --> 1:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>he hadn't been really preparing for the summit with Kim

1:07:01.760 --> 1:07:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Jong own, and then he defended that by saying to

1:07:04.360 --> 1:07:06.439
<v Speaker 1>reporters as he was leaving the White House earlier today,

1:07:06.440 --> 1:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>while I've been preparing for this all my life. Of course, Wolf,

1:07:09.680 --> 1:07:12.200
<v Speaker 1>as we know, before Donald Trump became President of the

1:07:12.240 --> 1:07:14.720
<v Speaker 1>United States, he was in the real estate business. So

1:07:14.760 --> 1:07:18.240
<v Speaker 1>it's difficult to imagine how much preparation he was doing

1:07:18.600 --> 1:07:21.640
<v Speaker 1>during his real estate days for pulling off some kind

1:07:21.680 --> 1:07:24.760
<v Speaker 1>of agreement that would denuclearize North Korea. I'll tell you

1:07:24.800 --> 1:07:28.560
<v Speaker 1>a couple of things. First, of all the hypocrisy is

1:07:28.560 --> 1:07:32.200
<v Speaker 1>astounding because I know someone who spoke to Donald Trump

1:07:32.280 --> 1:07:35.360
<v Speaker 1>recently about life in the White House, and Donald Trump's

1:07:35.400 --> 1:07:38.640
<v Speaker 1>biggest complaint was that he's not allowed to watch porn

1:07:38.840 --> 1:07:42.680
<v Speaker 1>in the White House. So there you go, there's a

1:07:42.680 --> 1:07:45.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit of news for you. He's upset that he

1:07:45.160 --> 1:07:47.760
<v Speaker 1>can't watch porn in the White House and they have

1:07:47.880 --> 1:07:51.840
<v Speaker 1>those you know, numbers blocked to, which must be a disappointment.

1:07:52.200 --> 1:07:54.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not really sure, but that's it just sort of

1:07:54.160 --> 1:07:59.520
<v Speaker 1>flies in the face of all of this journalists everybody there.

1:07:59.560 --> 1:08:01.200
<v Speaker 1>You go, a couple, a couple of a couple of

1:08:01.240 --> 1:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>big je journalists letting loose on air. There a Costa

1:08:07.080 --> 1:08:10.320
<v Speaker 1>from CNN among among the worst defenders of the pseudo

1:08:10.400 --> 1:08:13.800
<v Speaker 1>journalists out there, And uh, I love to We're just

1:08:13.800 --> 1:08:15.560
<v Speaker 1>bringing the facts. Like they all sit around, they get

1:08:15.560 --> 1:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>to ask some questions and then they try to get

1:08:18.120 --> 1:08:19.960
<v Speaker 1>some gossip from sources that will tell us some about

1:08:19.960 --> 1:08:24.719
<v Speaker 1>the White House. They act like there, you know, uh,

1:08:24.920 --> 1:08:27.639
<v Speaker 1>publishing the Pentagon papers all the time, which the whole

1:08:27.680 --> 1:08:29.680
<v Speaker 1>other conversations whether that was a good idea or not,

1:08:30.640 --> 1:08:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, it's pretty funny. Um, you know, A Costa here.

1:08:35.720 --> 1:08:39.280
<v Speaker 1>His whole thing is he's saying he's engaged in a

1:08:39.360 --> 1:08:42.040
<v Speaker 1>form of up to literalism. That will come up again

1:08:42.080 --> 1:08:43.320
<v Speaker 1>in a few minutes. And I tell you about another

1:08:43.360 --> 1:08:47.160
<v Speaker 1>exchange to have with one of the revered elitist journalists

1:08:47.200 --> 1:08:49.640
<v Speaker 1>today on the twitters. Not that I wanted to, but

1:08:49.680 --> 1:08:51.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, people come after the book. I don't know,

1:08:51.120 --> 1:08:52.800
<v Speaker 1>people like to hate on the buck sometimes from the

1:08:52.840 --> 1:08:55.960
<v Speaker 1>elite media. Such a nice guy, and I don't really understand,

1:08:56.400 --> 1:08:59.560
<v Speaker 1>and I really don't say like super inflammatory stuff I

1:08:59.640 --> 1:09:02.280
<v Speaker 1>probably should. Like if I just showed up every day,

1:09:02.280 --> 1:09:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I was just like, the tyranny is here, Like the

1:09:05.120 --> 1:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>deep state media is destroying the country, like every day.

1:09:08.200 --> 1:09:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I feel like, you know that has an audience for sure. Um.

1:09:12.040 --> 1:09:14.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I do think that the deep state is dangerous,

1:09:14.760 --> 1:09:17.240
<v Speaker 1>is damaged in the country, and I think the media

1:09:17.320 --> 1:09:21.040
<v Speaker 1>has has essentially engaged in self immolation, at least when

1:09:21.040 --> 1:09:24.479
<v Speaker 1>it comes to its credibility. But I try to put

1:09:24.520 --> 1:09:28.120
<v Speaker 1>a little nuance into some things. But what a constant

1:09:28.160 --> 1:09:29.600
<v Speaker 1>of there is. He goes, oh, Trump, Sis, he's been

1:09:29.640 --> 1:09:31.120
<v Speaker 1>preparing for this his whole life. He's like, I don't

1:09:31.160 --> 1:09:35.759
<v Speaker 1>see how he could be preparing Forby, It's like, dude,

1:09:36.640 --> 1:09:40.120
<v Speaker 1>he means that he's been preparing for this moment his life.

1:09:40.360 --> 1:09:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Like the same way that when somebody says to you,

1:09:42.920 --> 1:09:45.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, are you ready before you go out to

1:09:45.120 --> 1:09:46.760
<v Speaker 1>give a big speech or something. If you turn to

1:09:46.800 --> 1:09:50.000
<v Speaker 1>them and say, you know, I was born ready, you

1:09:50.000 --> 1:09:52.640
<v Speaker 1>don't actually mean that you came out and like, you know,

1:09:52.840 --> 1:09:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the placenta and the birth and all that stuff, and

1:09:55.320 --> 1:09:58.000
<v Speaker 1>you were you were ready for this. That's not what

1:09:58.040 --> 1:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>you're saying. You're saying, know, yeah, like I'm I'm ready

1:10:01.280 --> 1:10:03.120
<v Speaker 1>to go, or you know, are you ready for you know,

1:10:03.160 --> 1:10:05.519
<v Speaker 1>I've been waiting for this my whole life. No, you were, not,

1:10:05.600 --> 1:10:09.720
<v Speaker 1>in fact waiting for that moment for the entirety of

1:10:09.800 --> 1:10:16.040
<v Speaker 1>your life. You are someone who you know is excited

1:10:16.040 --> 1:10:19.120
<v Speaker 1>about the opportunity you're about to have. Right, But I mean,

1:10:19.360 --> 1:10:22.160
<v Speaker 1>so is a Costa Is he just is he not smart?

1:10:22.439 --> 1:10:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Or is he just being a jerk? I don't you

1:10:25.720 --> 1:10:27.880
<v Speaker 1>can answer that for me. I don't know. It could

1:10:27.880 --> 1:10:32.000
<v Speaker 1>go either way. And then with Mika, I won't even

1:10:32.080 --> 1:10:34.439
<v Speaker 1>pose that question. I'll just leave it. I'll just yeah,

1:10:34.479 --> 1:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>I'll just put it this way. She says, he's upset

1:10:37.920 --> 1:10:39.360
<v Speaker 1>he can't watch point of White House. You know, she's

1:10:39.400 --> 1:10:44.519
<v Speaker 1>so smug and smarmy about Trump now a year ago, no,

1:10:44.840 --> 1:10:47.680
<v Speaker 1>make that two years ago, when she could have you

1:10:47.880 --> 1:10:53.759
<v Speaker 1>been taking a determined stand against Trump, stand for journalistic ethics, ethics,

1:10:53.760 --> 1:10:58.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, stand for truth or you know whatever. All

1:10:58.200 --> 1:11:00.120
<v Speaker 1>all these things and all these journalists are there are

1:11:00.200 --> 1:11:02.280
<v Speaker 1>martyrs in the era of Trump. It's such a joke.

1:11:02.360 --> 1:11:07.519
<v Speaker 1>It's such a such a complete the buckle. But she

1:11:07.600 --> 1:11:11.080
<v Speaker 1>was very cozy within that, Mika and Trump and I'm sorry,

1:11:11.080 --> 1:11:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Mica and Joe and troll buddies, and then they had

1:11:14.040 --> 1:11:16.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of a falling out. And now you know, it's

1:11:16.880 --> 1:11:19.679
<v Speaker 1>a lot of like you know, high school kids stuff

1:11:19.680 --> 1:11:22.160
<v Speaker 1>with oh, what gossip can we tell about Trump? And

1:11:22.200 --> 1:11:26.280
<v Speaker 1>how he's so he's so grotesque, he's so clownish. He

1:11:26.360 --> 1:11:28.720
<v Speaker 1>can't watch porn in the White House, they're saying now,

1:11:28.800 --> 1:11:31.160
<v Speaker 1>and that's that's a big thing for him. You know,

1:11:31.640 --> 1:11:34.439
<v Speaker 1>Trump may have said that, I'm gonna say that, Trump

1:11:34.479 --> 1:11:37.080
<v Speaker 1>may have said that, He's I guarantee you it was

1:11:37.120 --> 1:11:41.040
<v Speaker 1>a joke, folks. But this, uh, you know, this this

1:11:41.200 --> 1:11:44.080
<v Speaker 1>extreme literalism now because they're, oh, we're the truth tellers,

1:11:44.080 --> 1:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>were the truth tellers. This has become a thing. This

1:11:47.439 --> 1:11:51.080
<v Speaker 1>is a trend I have noticed now. So now they

1:11:51.160 --> 1:11:56.360
<v Speaker 1>fact check opinions as though their facts. Now they fact check. Uh,

1:11:56.400 --> 1:11:58.800
<v Speaker 1>you know people that are are are making jokes. Look

1:11:58.840 --> 1:12:02.719
<v Speaker 1>what they did, I mean Mike with Sean Hannity earlier

1:12:02.720 --> 1:12:07.280
<v Speaker 1>in the week. Yes, technically Sean said that, you know,

1:12:07.320 --> 1:12:09.960
<v Speaker 1>they should destroy into that people should destroy evidence like Hillary.

1:12:10.320 --> 1:12:13.240
<v Speaker 1>He was laughing and it was a joke to anybody

1:12:13.320 --> 1:12:17.040
<v Speaker 1>with you know, ten i Q points to put together.

1:12:17.479 --> 1:12:19.800
<v Speaker 1>But there were correct me if I'm wrong. A lot

1:12:19.800 --> 1:12:21.679
<v Speaker 1>of media outlets, a lot of people in the media

1:12:21.720 --> 1:12:24.479
<v Speaker 1>who were like Hannity, you're giving you know, advice to

1:12:26.520 --> 1:12:29.160
<v Speaker 1>He wasn't giving it. Am I missing something? Now you'reright

1:12:29.200 --> 1:12:30.840
<v Speaker 1>on point? And how many of those people do you

1:12:30.840 --> 1:12:35.519
<v Speaker 1>actually think heard him say that or just read a headline. Well, see,

1:12:35.560 --> 1:12:38.160
<v Speaker 1>that's the other part of it, right. They are literalists

1:12:38.240 --> 1:12:41.200
<v Speaker 1>on our side. Every word has to be parsed, every

1:12:41.240 --> 1:12:43.679
<v Speaker 1>word in anything that they're trying to get down in. Dude,

1:12:43.680 --> 1:12:45.400
<v Speaker 1>oh you said this, but it's really this, you know,

1:12:46.280 --> 1:12:52.080
<v Speaker 1>you said red and it's chartreuse liar whoa settle down? Right?

1:12:52.680 --> 1:12:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Sean is actually making a joke. That is that no

1:12:56.000 --> 1:12:58.000
<v Speaker 1>one who listens to it could look any of the

1:12:58.040 --> 1:13:00.200
<v Speaker 1>face and says anything other than a joke. And still

1:13:00.240 --> 1:13:02.080
<v Speaker 1>they still jump they jump on his case. I mean

1:13:02.080 --> 1:13:04.960
<v Speaker 1>a few people do, some of the media. It's just

1:13:05.040 --> 1:13:07.320
<v Speaker 1>it's just ridiculous. But with Miki here, what I bet

1:13:07.400 --> 1:13:10.720
<v Speaker 1>happened is Trump made a joke because you know, he's

1:13:10.720 --> 1:13:13.400
<v Speaker 1>a guy's guy and he says things a certain way.

1:13:13.840 --> 1:13:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I bet he made a joke about how he can't

1:13:16.200 --> 1:13:18.880
<v Speaker 1>watch porn in the White House, and somebody relayed that

1:13:18.920 --> 1:13:20.960
<v Speaker 1>as a joke, and Mika is like, well I heard

1:13:21.000 --> 1:13:23.559
<v Speaker 1>that Trump says that he's upset that he can't watch

1:13:23.640 --> 1:13:28.640
<v Speaker 1>porn in the White House? Well was he? Was he

1:13:28.720 --> 1:13:31.360
<v Speaker 1>serious about it? That's one part of this, And then

1:13:31.360 --> 1:13:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the other part of it is why are you telling

1:13:34.080 --> 1:13:37.320
<v Speaker 1>us this? I mean, you know what, what? What is that?

1:13:37.439 --> 1:13:41.040
<v Speaker 1>The thing? What? The percentage of American adult males who

1:13:41.040 --> 1:13:44.760
<v Speaker 1>watched pornography is very high. I will tell you that

1:13:44.760 --> 1:13:48.679
<v Speaker 1>actually years ago. I made the conscious decision A long

1:13:48.680 --> 1:13:51.320
<v Speaker 1>time ago. Now I don't know, it's been a while.

1:13:51.520 --> 1:13:54.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say to to a shoe porn. I'm not

1:13:54.640 --> 1:13:57.080
<v Speaker 1>saying like when the when the boobies come out on

1:13:57.160 --> 1:13:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Game of Thrones, I run and high or something. I'm not.

1:13:59.160 --> 1:14:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not you know, I'm not a monk, you know.

1:14:00.960 --> 1:14:04.519
<v Speaker 1>I I mean, I am the guy who is somewhat

1:14:04.520 --> 1:14:07.800
<v Speaker 1>disappointed about the Miss America bathing suit competition decision. Like,

1:14:07.800 --> 1:14:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not pretending that I don't you know, I'm not

1:14:12.400 --> 1:14:15.080
<v Speaker 1>somebody who will occasionally ogl what is on the TV screen.

1:14:15.600 --> 1:14:18.320
<v Speaker 1>But I do think that. Then this is a a

1:14:18.400 --> 1:14:20.800
<v Speaker 1>whole other part of the conversation. But as a guy,

1:14:20.840 --> 1:14:26.479
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you you appreciate, uh, you appreciate your

1:14:27.120 --> 1:14:33.400
<v Speaker 1>intimate life more. You appreciate female beauty around you, especially

1:14:33.600 --> 1:14:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the female beauty of the person that you are romantically with.

1:14:37.640 --> 1:14:40.360
<v Speaker 1>You appreciate that more. If you are not watching five

1:14:40.400 --> 1:14:44.639
<v Speaker 1>hours of porn today, you I'm you. It is a

1:14:44.680 --> 1:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>desensitization that occurs over time. I'm telling you, guys who

1:14:49.200 --> 1:14:52.960
<v Speaker 1>are listening. If you're like, you know, well, whatever age

1:14:53.000 --> 1:14:55.400
<v Speaker 1>you may be, if if this is something that you

1:14:55.640 --> 1:14:58.840
<v Speaker 1>if porn is laying a role in your life, get

1:14:58.960 --> 1:15:00.400
<v Speaker 1>rid of it. Get rid of it the way you'd

1:15:00.439 --> 1:15:02.880
<v Speaker 1>get rid of like a bad of a bad habit.

1:15:04.000 --> 1:15:06.439
<v Speaker 1>You won't look back I'm telling you you won't look

1:15:06.479 --> 1:15:11.320
<v Speaker 1>back and you will realize that it has it has

1:15:11.360 --> 1:15:13.880
<v Speaker 1>a negative effect. I don't. I'm not somebody's Oh, pornography

1:15:13.960 --> 1:15:16.240
<v Speaker 1>is the reason that we like the society is coming apart.

1:15:16.280 --> 1:15:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Although I know some very smart people who make who

1:15:19.280 --> 1:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>makes some pretty compelling arguments about that. I'm just saying,

1:15:22.439 --> 1:15:28.400
<v Speaker 1>for your own, for your own day to day purposes. Uh.

1:15:28.439 --> 1:15:32.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's kind of like if you had if

1:15:32.360 --> 1:15:34.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you have access to let let's say

1:15:34.360 --> 1:15:36.640
<v Speaker 1>you have access to an entire to a store just

1:15:36.680 --> 1:15:39.160
<v Speaker 1>full of sugary candy, right, just like a candy also

1:15:39.160 --> 1:15:42.479
<v Speaker 1>known as a candy store, and you're just eating, eating,

1:15:42.479 --> 1:15:45.760
<v Speaker 1>eating candy, candy, candy all the time, right, and then

1:15:45.840 --> 1:15:49.000
<v Speaker 1>somebody shows up and you have a chocolate cake that

1:15:49.160 --> 1:15:52.000
<v Speaker 1>is like homemade and delicious and perfect. If you have

1:15:52.080 --> 1:15:54.640
<v Speaker 1>been every day leading up to that three meals a

1:15:54.720 --> 1:15:58.760
<v Speaker 1>day stuffing your face with starbursts and you know what else?

1:15:58.800 --> 1:16:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Did you know? Twizzlers and all this junk I used

1:16:01.960 --> 1:16:04.280
<v Speaker 1>to eat sometimes when my parents weren't looking as a kid,

1:16:04.840 --> 1:16:07.719
<v Speaker 1>you will appreciate that chocolate cake glass. I think, Mike,

1:16:07.800 --> 1:16:09.880
<v Speaker 1>is this analogy? Am I am? My is this making

1:16:09.920 --> 1:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>sense or is it too weird? Okay, I'm making sense,

1:16:12.880 --> 1:16:15.680
<v Speaker 1>thank you. So Mika does not have to tell us

1:16:15.680 --> 1:16:19.519
<v Speaker 1>about the president's alleged desire to watch adults entertainment in

1:16:19.520 --> 1:16:21.479
<v Speaker 1>the White House. I bet it was a joke that

1:16:21.680 --> 1:16:23.759
<v Speaker 1>if she heard this at all, if it isn't actually

1:16:23.760 --> 1:16:26.000
<v Speaker 1>just fake news, I bet it's a joke. And it's

1:16:26.080 --> 1:16:27.519
<v Speaker 1>quite clear that when it comes to Trump, the media

1:16:27.560 --> 1:16:31.360
<v Speaker 1>cannot take a joke. Speaking of which, uh so, I

1:16:31.439 --> 1:16:33.479
<v Speaker 1>had a little bit of a little Twitter exchange a lot.

1:16:33.479 --> 1:16:34.600
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of you are on Twitter, but

1:16:34.680 --> 1:16:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll kind of explain to you how it went today.

1:16:36.320 --> 1:16:37.599
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is just the stuff when I say

1:16:37.640 --> 1:16:40.639
<v Speaker 1>to myself, maybe I just want Twitter where I can

1:16:40.640 --> 1:16:43.280
<v Speaker 1>talk to all of you. You know, I don't want annoying,

1:16:44.439 --> 1:16:51.040
<v Speaker 1>self righteous, entitled, overpaid TV journalists like just annoying me.

1:16:51.520 --> 1:16:53.839
<v Speaker 1>I don't need it. But but one of them did today,

1:16:53.880 --> 1:16:56.680
<v Speaker 1>and I think it's a lot. It illuminates a fundamental

1:16:56.720 --> 1:16:59.160
<v Speaker 1>lie at the heart of the mainstream media. And we'll

1:16:59.160 --> 1:17:02.080
<v Speaker 1>get into that shortly. If you're looking for the most

<v Speaker 1>three folks. It's a three stoff punct that is for sure.

1:18:31.040 --> 1:18:36.120
<v Speaker 1>And you know I try to. I try to approach

1:18:36.320 --> 1:18:42.800
<v Speaker 1>my my business with a certain degree of of decorum

1:18:42.920 --> 1:18:47.919
<v Speaker 1>and responsibility and respect and and even friendliness whenever possible.

1:18:47.960 --> 1:18:52.960
<v Speaker 1>I really try to do my best too, even when

1:18:52.960 --> 1:18:55.840
<v Speaker 1>I disagree strongly with people, not make it personal, not

1:18:55.920 --> 1:19:00.679
<v Speaker 1>getting nasty, not be uh you know, not just actually

1:19:00.680 --> 1:19:04.080
<v Speaker 1>not not be a jerk. But not everybody else really

1:19:04.080 --> 1:19:06.280
<v Speaker 1>takes that approach. Some people like to be very and

1:19:06.320 --> 1:19:08.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean media folks, right. I'm not talking about just

1:19:09.439 --> 1:19:11.280
<v Speaker 1>whoever can get a Twitter account. I mean people that

1:19:11.320 --> 1:19:15.240
<v Speaker 1>are blue the blue check Twitter, right, the public person Twitter.

1:19:15.760 --> 1:19:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes people can be a bit snappy, a bit rude,

1:19:20.280 --> 1:19:23.400
<v Speaker 1>a little bit unfair, and honestly just just kind of nasty.

1:19:24.400 --> 1:19:27.000
<v Speaker 1>So you know, this is where I have to tell

1:19:27.040 --> 1:19:30.320
<v Speaker 1>you that I had a yet another It's so interesting.

1:19:31.040 --> 1:19:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Mr Tapper over at CNN seems to like to uh

1:19:35.560 --> 1:19:39.679
<v Speaker 1>goad me on Twitter uh and and never just debate

1:19:39.720 --> 1:19:43.360
<v Speaker 1>back and forth the issue, but always likes to remember

1:19:43.600 --> 1:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>this is just about tweets, right, Say someone's lying, say

1:19:46.840 --> 1:19:49.879
<v Speaker 1>that I I someone's being dishonest and I'm being dishonest.

1:19:50.000 --> 1:19:53.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, and I'm like, the tweets stand for themselves. Man.

1:19:53.479 --> 1:19:55.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a. It's a public It's essentially a public record

1:19:55.960 --> 1:19:58.479
<v Speaker 1>of somebody's thoughts in real time that they decided to

1:19:58.520 --> 1:20:02.240
<v Speaker 1>share with with who, you know, whomever wants to get

1:20:02.240 --> 1:20:03.960
<v Speaker 1>on the internet. But I just think this was this

1:20:04.000 --> 1:20:08.320
<v Speaker 1>was very instructive about why why does the media um

1:20:08.479 --> 1:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>turned so many people off? Why are they so distrusted?

1:20:10.720 --> 1:20:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Why are they more distrusted now than ever before? Why

1:20:13.320 --> 1:20:17.160
<v Speaker 1>does Donald Trump's statement about fake news not only resonate

1:20:17.200 --> 1:20:21.960
<v Speaker 1>with so many people, but also, uh, why is it

1:20:22.040 --> 1:20:27.080
<v Speaker 1>that they're so sensitive about it? And I have to say, Uh,

1:20:27.560 --> 1:20:31.640
<v Speaker 1>this I think is a pretty good version of it.

1:20:31.680 --> 1:20:34.040
<v Speaker 1>I think this, this gives you a sense to a

1:20:34.160 --> 1:20:36.720
<v Speaker 1>sense of what the problems are here. So the New

1:20:36.800 --> 1:20:41.880
<v Speaker 1>York Times wrote that the Justice Department seized a as

1:20:41.880 --> 1:20:44.200
<v Speaker 1>we've been discussing, right, they seized a reporter's phone and

1:20:44.240 --> 1:20:47.479
<v Speaker 1>email records. It's first known use of such an aggressive

1:20:47.520 --> 1:20:50.680
<v Speaker 1>tactic under President Trump. And I just fired after this one.

1:20:50.720 --> 1:20:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Obama did this. The press was willing to overlook it.

1:20:53.040 --> 1:20:55.679
<v Speaker 1>They made it okay for Obama because he was so perfect.

1:20:55.880 --> 1:20:59.719
<v Speaker 1>Press won't overlook it now. But guess what, too late now.

1:21:01.360 --> 1:21:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I am obviously, as somebody who works in media and

1:21:03.800 --> 1:21:07.040
<v Speaker 1>also used to work in the intelligence community aware of

1:21:07.160 --> 1:21:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the media's coverage, meaning that there was coverage of the

1:21:14.160 --> 1:21:21.880
<v Speaker 1>various spying iterations by the Obama administration that specifically targeted journalists. Right,

1:21:21.880 --> 1:21:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I am obviously very aware of that. Now it's Twitter,

1:21:25.479 --> 1:21:28.360
<v Speaker 1>at shorthand at short form. I get all that, But

1:21:28.760 --> 1:21:35.000
<v Speaker 1>immediately I got a a very a very nasty response

1:21:35.280 --> 1:21:37.280
<v Speaker 1>by I wasn't tweeting at Jake Taber. I don't care,

1:21:37.680 --> 1:21:40.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, to me, I mean, Jake Tapper. You could

1:21:40.360 --> 1:21:42.680
<v Speaker 1>replace him with fifteen other guys at CNN tomorrow. The

1:21:42.760 --> 1:21:45.840
<v Speaker 1>ratings wouldn't change, and and I wouldn't care what I mean,

1:21:45.880 --> 1:21:51.280
<v Speaker 1>it's his his opinion is not relevant to me, but

1:21:52.120 --> 1:21:54.880
<v Speaker 1>his opinion of me. It's something he decided to to

1:21:55.000 --> 1:21:59.400
<v Speaker 1>share in a particularly aggressive fashion. I'm trying to actually

1:21:59.400 --> 1:22:01.160
<v Speaker 1>pull up the whole because this made it on the media.

1:22:01.200 --> 1:22:03.920
<v Speaker 1>I'd folks, this this guy picked up as a separate story.

1:22:04.000 --> 1:22:07.080
<v Speaker 1>So I said that, and then you get, yeah, Jake Tapper,

1:22:07.439 --> 1:22:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Jake Tapper correct CI analysts proclaiming media ignored Obama press crackdown.

1:22:13.280 --> 1:22:15.719
<v Speaker 1>So sick of the lying, that's what, so Jake said,

1:22:15.800 --> 1:22:17.680
<v Speaker 1>So sick of the lying in response to me, and

1:22:17.680 --> 1:22:20.200
<v Speaker 1>then shared a bunch of his own because he's the

1:22:20.240 --> 1:22:23.880
<v Speaker 1>media apparently, I mean, the media is a lot, right,

1:22:23.880 --> 1:22:26.680
<v Speaker 1>it's a very sweeping judgment. I understand there's really you

1:22:26.760 --> 1:22:29.519
<v Speaker 1>could be engaged in a bit of sophistry and say

1:22:29.520 --> 1:22:32.719
<v Speaker 1>there's no such thing as the media position on anything,

1:22:33.000 --> 1:22:37.120
<v Speaker 1>which is kind of technically true but also useless, right,

1:22:37.160 --> 1:22:40.920
<v Speaker 1>because there's clearly a a focus, a preponderance on or

1:22:41.120 --> 1:22:46.120
<v Speaker 1>a focus, and a tendency preponders the wrong word for

1:22:47.240 --> 1:22:50.280
<v Speaker 1>the media to take things a certain way. Um, So

1:22:50.560 --> 1:22:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I have to say, I think this is so fascinating

1:22:52.360 --> 1:22:54.160
<v Speaker 1>because you know, then I get so he's called it

1:22:54.200 --> 1:22:57.599
<v Speaker 1>a lie. I responded to him, and this was all

1:22:57.640 --> 1:23:01.320
<v Speaker 1>in in in real time. I responded to him by overlook,

1:23:01.439 --> 1:23:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm making a judgment about the intensity of the coverage

1:23:04.040 --> 1:23:07.320
<v Speaker 1>and the outrage over the tactic. I'm obviously not saying

1:23:08.120 --> 1:23:10.960
<v Speaker 1>nobody covered it. How would I have known about it

1:23:11.000 --> 1:23:13.400
<v Speaker 1>if it wasn't through the news? But by all means

1:23:13.479 --> 1:23:15.439
<v Speaker 1>use up too literalism is an opening to call it

1:23:15.479 --> 1:23:17.559
<v Speaker 1>a lie. And then Jake says that's not how words work,

1:23:17.600 --> 1:23:19.439
<v Speaker 1>and I said, that's really cute. Jake or that's really

1:23:19.560 --> 1:23:22.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, funny or whatever. Uh, he's very nasty to

1:23:22.360 --> 1:23:25.080
<v Speaker 1>people on Twitter. He has this reputation. He does this

1:23:25.160 --> 1:23:28.519
<v Speaker 1>all the time, and I think it's because fundamentally he's

1:23:28.520 --> 1:23:30.519
<v Speaker 1>a part of a lie. Do you want to talk

1:23:30.560 --> 1:23:33.760
<v Speaker 1>about lying? And the lie is that CNN is an

1:23:33.760 --> 1:23:37.200
<v Speaker 1>objective news source, which if he was asked he would

1:23:37.240 --> 1:23:42.280
<v Speaker 1>say it is. So he is living a lie every day.

1:23:42.400 --> 1:23:47.040
<v Speaker 1>He is fundamentally a part of a lie by being

1:23:47.040 --> 1:23:49.920
<v Speaker 1>a part of an organization that claims to be unbiased

1:23:49.960 --> 1:23:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and fair. Now, on the merits of this specific issue

1:23:54.800 --> 1:23:59.800
<v Speaker 1>of whether they were willing to overlook Obama and this

1:24:00.000 --> 1:24:01.840
<v Speaker 1>buying that occurdenter has watched, I want to make it

1:24:01.960 --> 1:24:06.120
<v Speaker 1>very clear that, yeah, I could have said largely overlooked.

1:24:06.120 --> 1:24:08.680
<v Speaker 1>There's some way, you know, if I was trying to

1:24:08.760 --> 1:24:13.120
<v Speaker 1>be focused in on precision where nobody could quibble with me,

1:24:13.200 --> 1:24:16.600
<v Speaker 1>I could do that. But is the position that the

1:24:16.600 --> 1:24:18.240
<v Speaker 1>medium By the way, I got a whole pile on

1:24:18.280 --> 1:24:20.640
<v Speaker 1>people in New York Times, Washington Post. Oh, we covered it,

1:24:20.720 --> 1:24:23.439
<v Speaker 1>we covered it. Yeah, Really, where are the editorials asking

1:24:23.439 --> 1:24:27.040
<v Speaker 1>for Eric Holder's resignation for seizing the phone records of

1:24:27.080 --> 1:24:29.800
<v Speaker 1>journalists for listing James Rosen of Fox News as an

1:24:29.880 --> 1:24:33.240
<v Speaker 1>unindicted co conspirator. Oh, that's right, it was Fox. Do

1:24:33.280 --> 1:24:34.960
<v Speaker 1>we think they were as upset about it when it

1:24:35.000 --> 1:24:36.719
<v Speaker 1>was at Fox? And they would have been in other places,

1:24:36.720 --> 1:24:40.240
<v Speaker 1>because you know journalism. They point me to all these

1:24:40.320 --> 1:24:43.559
<v Speaker 1>editorials they say, a troubling precedent for the obamaministration. The

1:24:43.600 --> 1:24:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Obama administration was was effectively preparing to gut or in

1:24:49.560 --> 1:24:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the process of gutting national security reporting overall. You'd think

1:24:55.840 --> 1:24:57.360
<v Speaker 1>that people who make a living doing that would be

1:24:57.400 --> 1:25:01.000
<v Speaker 1>more than just like publishing an editorial here and there. Yeah,

1:25:01.080 --> 1:25:03.000
<v Speaker 1>we don't think. We don't think Obama should do this.

1:25:03.080 --> 1:25:05.479
<v Speaker 1>Do you think one journalist changed his mind about Obama

1:25:05.520 --> 1:25:09.439
<v Speaker 1>and the abaministration based on this? No? But you see,

1:25:09.479 --> 1:25:14.000
<v Speaker 1>my my problem is, folks, and I appreciate Tapper trying

1:25:14.040 --> 1:25:16.479
<v Speaker 1>to correct me on that correct me as media it says,

1:25:16.560 --> 1:25:19.160
<v Speaker 1>by the way, media, I also just makes it even

1:25:19.200 --> 1:25:24.320
<v Speaker 1>worse by saying that I I ignored. I never said ignored.

1:25:24.360 --> 1:25:29.080
<v Speaker 1>I said overlook. But oh, overlook doesn't mean that you're

1:25:29.160 --> 1:25:32.799
<v Speaker 1>unaware of it, right, I mean overlook in the context

1:25:32.840 --> 1:25:34.519
<v Speaker 1>that I was using it is to say, you know,

1:25:34.600 --> 1:25:36.200
<v Speaker 1>they were like, Yeah, it's not that big a deal.

1:25:37.800 --> 1:25:40.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying they never mentioned it, because that's crazy

1:25:40.640 --> 1:25:43.400
<v Speaker 1>because obviously I could only know about the story for

1:25:43.439 --> 1:25:47.519
<v Speaker 1>media coverage. So it's a it's a nonsensical point. But

1:25:47.600 --> 1:25:51.040
<v Speaker 1>it brings me back to the center of the wheelhouse here,

1:25:51.080 --> 1:25:56.360
<v Speaker 1>which is but see, CNN is just peddling a falsehood

1:25:56.360 --> 1:25:58.439
<v Speaker 1>every day by pretending that they are not in an

1:25:58.520 --> 1:26:03.560
<v Speaker 1>organization devoted to the distry auction of the Trump administration too. Hopefully,

1:26:03.640 --> 1:26:07.800
<v Speaker 1>if they have their way making Donald Trump lose his

1:26:07.840 --> 1:26:11.120
<v Speaker 1>presidency and also maybe go to prison people around him

1:26:11.120 --> 1:26:13.680
<v Speaker 1>go to prison, they would cheer. I'm sure if they

1:26:13.680 --> 1:26:15.800
<v Speaker 1>could get you know, Jared or Vonka or somebody brought

1:26:15.920 --> 1:26:20.280
<v Speaker 1>up on some kind of uh lame mickey mouse muller,

1:26:20.520 --> 1:26:23.720
<v Speaker 1>go into the mat kind of charges, they'd be very

1:26:23.720 --> 1:26:27.360
<v Speaker 1>happy with that. And so that's why I think there's

1:26:27.360 --> 1:26:31.280
<v Speaker 1>this heightened sensitivity because people realize, Okay, let's quibble with

1:26:31.360 --> 1:26:35.679
<v Speaker 1>my language over the double standard of Obama versus Trump

1:26:35.720 --> 1:26:38.400
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to the media's coverage of their spying.

1:26:38.840 --> 1:26:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Let's do that. By the way, it's not just the

1:26:41.360 --> 1:26:47.400
<v Speaker 1>spying that Obama did that they glossed over. There we go.

1:26:47.479 --> 1:26:49.800
<v Speaker 1>That's what I said. That that they that they briefly

1:26:49.920 --> 1:26:53.559
<v Speaker 1>touched on in some news stories that they quickly forgot about.

1:26:54.200 --> 1:26:56.599
<v Speaker 1>There wasn't some big narrative. There were no journalists who

1:26:56.640 --> 1:26:58.559
<v Speaker 1>were saying, oh, you know, we we really need to

1:26:58.560 --> 1:27:01.479
<v Speaker 1>rethink this whole oba I'm a love fest that we've

1:27:01.479 --> 1:27:05.599
<v Speaker 1>been having. Come on, right, that's that's not what happened.

1:27:05.600 --> 1:27:07.439
<v Speaker 1>We all know that's what happened. But even beyond that,

1:27:07.880 --> 1:27:10.040
<v Speaker 1>you've got journalists that are running stories every day now

1:27:10.080 --> 1:27:14.160
<v Speaker 1>about how US citizens like Carter Page can, with the

1:27:14.200 --> 1:27:21.200
<v Speaker 1>discretion of the national security industry, lose all their all

1:27:21.200 --> 1:27:25.439
<v Speaker 1>their Fourth Amendment rights. Right, they can just pick up

1:27:25.479 --> 1:27:28.640
<v Speaker 1>their emails, listen whatever they want. Journalists are fine with

1:27:28.640 --> 1:27:31.000
<v Speaker 1>that because it's against Trump. I mean, the double standard

1:27:31.080 --> 1:27:34.200
<v Speaker 1>is so glaring. It's laughable that anybody would try to

1:27:34.520 --> 1:27:37.920
<v Speaker 1>say otherwise. But instead of that, call someone a liar.

1:27:38.080 --> 1:27:40.360
<v Speaker 1>By the way, very strong, I was sharing an opinion.

1:27:40.560 --> 1:27:42.799
<v Speaker 1>Mr Tapper is unfamiliar with the difference in an opinion

1:27:42.840 --> 1:27:45.559
<v Speaker 1>and a fact. It's not a fact to say that

1:27:45.560 --> 1:27:48.000
<v Speaker 1>the the media, which is not an individual, it's a

1:27:48.040 --> 1:27:53.400
<v Speaker 1>general conception of organizations. The media overlooking something is not

1:27:53.479 --> 1:27:57.559
<v Speaker 1>a factual statement. I didn't say they actually never covered it.

1:27:58.800 --> 1:28:01.400
<v Speaker 1>But you'll notice they that they'd rather play this game

1:28:01.439 --> 1:28:03.120
<v Speaker 1>of well, we're the ones that are calling facts because

1:28:03.160 --> 1:28:06.240
<v Speaker 1>Trump world is awful of lies. And also, I've actually

1:28:06.240 --> 1:28:08.400
<v Speaker 1>never met Tapper, never spoken a word to him, don't

1:28:08.439 --> 1:28:10.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know much about him. I know he's nasty to

1:28:10.280 --> 1:28:11.920
<v Speaker 1>people on a regular basis on Twitter, and I can

1:28:11.960 --> 1:28:14.320
<v Speaker 1>tell you kind of funny stories about how this is

1:28:14.360 --> 1:28:16.519
<v Speaker 1>the way that he operates right he can, he won't

1:28:16.560 --> 1:28:20.320
<v Speaker 1>let things go. He and he demands retractions, demands retractions

1:28:20.320 --> 1:28:24.160
<v Speaker 1>like who do you think you are? Thinks he's very important.

1:28:24.320 --> 1:28:27.840
<v Speaker 1>That much is clear, very very full of himself. But

1:28:27.920 --> 1:28:30.920
<v Speaker 1>on the on the the underlying substance here, and you know,

1:28:31.000 --> 1:28:33.400
<v Speaker 1>as I said, this guy, different journalists are all away

1:28:33.400 --> 1:28:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and they're all dog piling me. Oh you're look at

1:28:35.320 --> 1:28:38.160
<v Speaker 1>this article. Look at this article. Yeah, yeah, idiots. I

1:28:38.280 --> 1:28:40.800
<v Speaker 1>know that you wrote articles about the Obama spuying. The

1:28:40.800 --> 1:28:43.280
<v Speaker 1>point is you were willing to move on past it

1:28:43.320 --> 1:28:46.960
<v Speaker 1>and not make it a major issue because Obama. And

1:28:47.000 --> 1:28:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying that I doubt they'll be the same

1:28:49.240 --> 1:28:53.320
<v Speaker 1>tendency with Trump and his administration and using national security

1:28:53.320 --> 1:28:56.040
<v Speaker 1>powers to spy on journalists. This shouldn't be controversial. Actually

1:28:56.080 --> 1:28:58.760
<v Speaker 1>this should be a pretty obvious thing to say, but

1:28:58.920 --> 1:29:00.800
<v Speaker 1>you get heat for it will because when you point

1:29:00.840 --> 1:29:02.720
<v Speaker 1>out the double standard, they get upset. The same way

1:29:02.720 --> 1:29:05.240
<v Speaker 1>when you call them fake news, they get upset because

1:29:05.240 --> 1:29:07.840
<v Speaker 1>they do rome with fake news. Oh no, I'm so

1:29:07.960 --> 1:29:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you're right, Stormy Daniels, night after night after night. That's

1:29:11.960 --> 1:29:15.040
<v Speaker 1>not fake news. What well, what is that? They're creating

1:29:15.080 --> 1:29:17.960
<v Speaker 1>news out of a non news story? So what what

1:29:18.040 --> 1:29:22.920
<v Speaker 1>do they want us to call that? Anyway? Look, I

1:29:22.960 --> 1:29:24.640
<v Speaker 1>mean this is why I think some days, you know,

1:29:25.520 --> 1:29:29.960
<v Speaker 1>just retreat to the woods. Write some novels nobody will read.

1:29:30.720 --> 1:29:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Learn how to like trap some fish, you know, get

1:29:33.920 --> 1:29:37.280
<v Speaker 1>like some some of those gloves and the thing you

1:29:37.320 --> 1:29:40.320
<v Speaker 1>need to the mask and everything for the honey, you know,

1:29:41.000 --> 1:29:42.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you gotta have honey, Gotta have sweetener. I'm

1:29:42.760 --> 1:29:44.840
<v Speaker 1>not I'm not a barbarian, right and live out in

1:29:44.840 --> 1:29:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the woods. Get some honey, just kind of keep it

1:29:47.960 --> 1:29:50.519
<v Speaker 1>all going, you know, Get an old record player because

1:29:50.520 --> 1:29:53.000
<v Speaker 1>that just feels a little more old timey. Put on

1:29:53.040 --> 1:29:56.439
<v Speaker 1>the cat Stevens. Let the cat pur some days. Man,

1:29:56.479 --> 1:29:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I just feel like that's the way to go. You know,

1:29:58.200 --> 1:30:01.120
<v Speaker 1>this this whole trying trying to be out there fighting

1:30:01.160 --> 1:30:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the fight, you know, taking it just just trying to

1:30:03.960 --> 1:30:07.719
<v Speaker 1>spread spread knowledge and truth to the best of my ability.

1:30:07.760 --> 1:30:10.679
<v Speaker 1>You know, your days, You're just like, Man, it should

1:30:10.720 --> 1:30:15.519
<v Speaker 1>have been like, yeah, set up like a tiki bar somewhere,

1:30:15.600 --> 1:30:18.720
<v Speaker 1>real nice. You know, I had some like live music

1:30:18.760 --> 1:30:21.080
<v Speaker 1>that would play. I'm getting myself all excited here. Some

1:30:21.080 --> 1:30:23.439
<v Speaker 1>of you're probably gonna send me recommendations. Move to this city.

1:30:23.479 --> 1:30:25.120
<v Speaker 1>You can order this town. You know, you can just

1:30:25.160 --> 1:30:28.439
<v Speaker 1>hang out by the beach, just chill one day. It

1:30:28.439 --> 1:30:30.240
<v Speaker 1>would be also be fun to just have a Twitter

1:30:30.280 --> 1:30:32.320
<v Speaker 1>account that, like it is not like I have no

1:30:32.400 --> 1:30:35.360
<v Speaker 1>professional involvement in in the media anymore, and I can

1:30:35.400 --> 1:30:37.000
<v Speaker 1>actually just tell people what I think of them. That

1:30:37.040 --> 1:30:39.519
<v Speaker 1>would be fun and really tell them, like just say it,

1:30:39.680 --> 1:30:44.200
<v Speaker 1>not care. But I would get in trouble. And profanity

1:30:44.240 --> 1:30:47.800
<v Speaker 1>is a problem, you know stuff like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1:30:47.800 --> 1:30:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I know people will say, you know, buck, technically you

1:30:49.960 --> 1:30:53.280
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't call person that, even if they are a terrible

1:30:53.320 --> 1:30:57.120
<v Speaker 1>CNN jerk. Uh so you know it is what it is.

1:30:57.680 --> 1:31:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Um anyway, Yes, this is why I just hate Twitter,

1:31:02.320 --> 1:31:04.600
<v Speaker 1>because it's it's useful to a point, but as a

1:31:04.600 --> 1:31:07.879
<v Speaker 1>means of conversation, it's no. No one's actually trying to engage.

1:31:07.880 --> 1:31:10.680
<v Speaker 1>They're really just and they're they're seeing who can come

1:31:10.720 --> 1:31:12.320
<v Speaker 1>up with the sickest burn and who can create the

1:31:12.320 --> 1:31:15.400
<v Speaker 1>biggest dog pile effect to silence, you know, the the

1:31:15.520 --> 1:31:18.519
<v Speaker 1>people that they don't like. And I just find it,

1:31:18.760 --> 1:31:24.599
<v Speaker 1>uh find a childish finds pretty annoying. And yeah, anyway,

1:31:24.680 --> 1:31:27.240
<v Speaker 1>my last thing with Tapper was when I when he

1:31:27.280 --> 1:31:29.360
<v Speaker 1>said that Scooter Libby leaked the name of a covert

1:31:29.439 --> 1:31:32.479
<v Speaker 1>CIA officer and I'm like, I think he actually said

1:31:32.520 --> 1:31:34.400
<v Speaker 1>agent because he doesn't know the difference in an agent

1:31:34.400 --> 1:31:37.439
<v Speaker 1>and an officer. And although don't quote me on that,

1:31:37.560 --> 1:31:40.479
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, I could be wrong. Um I'm willing

1:31:40.520 --> 1:31:41.960
<v Speaker 1>to bet that was correct. And I'm just like, well,

1:31:41.960 --> 1:31:47.439
<v Speaker 1>that's actually not what happened. But okay, all right, you

1:31:47.479 --> 1:31:49.479
<v Speaker 1>know I got all the other scene and they all

1:31:49.479 --> 1:31:51.360
<v Speaker 1>come they're all like a team, like like a big

1:31:51.520 --> 1:31:54.559
<v Speaker 1>it's like a clown car of of well of clowns,

1:31:54.880 --> 1:31:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the clown News network, and they all come after you,

1:31:58.600 --> 1:32:01.479
<v Speaker 1>yelling at you and stuff. So few people that go

1:32:01.520 --> 1:32:06.120
<v Speaker 1>on are there now and share opinions. Uh, I have

1:32:06.400 --> 1:32:08.840
<v Speaker 1>really any respect for at this point. I mean professionally.

1:32:09.320 --> 1:32:13.280
<v Speaker 1>Personally I can't speak to it, but professionally it's who

1:32:13.640 --> 1:32:15.759
<v Speaker 1>who's who's the down the middle person you can trust

1:32:15.800 --> 1:32:18.400
<v Speaker 1>over there. That's not skewing, that's not feeding into the

1:32:18.479 --> 1:32:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Russia collusion fantasy. Anyway. Some people just need a bucks laugh,

1:32:23.120 --> 1:32:25.800
<v Speaker 1>whether they realize they got one or not. Uh, we'll

1:32:25.800 --> 1:32:29.080
<v Speaker 1>be right back. When you're work your dogs, you know

1:32:29.120 --> 1:32:32.080
<v Speaker 1>they're they're cooped up all day inside, so when you

1:32:32.160 --> 1:32:35.160
<v Speaker 1>get home, you want to let them burn off some energy.

1:32:35.439 --> 1:32:37.479
<v Speaker 1>You can run around the yard a little bit, you know,

1:32:37.560 --> 1:32:39.960
<v Speaker 1>jump around, maybe you're gonna throw a ball, play fetch.

1:32:40.360 --> 1:32:42.280
<v Speaker 1>But if they start digging, you can have a problem

1:32:42.320 --> 1:32:45.559
<v Speaker 1>under your hands because guess what. Digging can go under

1:32:45.600 --> 1:32:47.920
<v Speaker 1>your fence. And you might have tried brick and would

1:33:41.840 --> 1:33:45.280
<v Speaker 1>So here we go. Now we can put some some

1:33:45.439 --> 1:33:50.680
<v Speaker 1>facts and figures into what we already know about the

1:33:50.720 --> 1:33:58.240
<v Speaker 1>whole u NFL flag kneeling controversy. You have here that

1:33:58.320 --> 1:34:04.120
<v Speaker 1>a majority of US voters say that the National Football

1:34:04.200 --> 1:34:08.520
<v Speaker 1>League players who neil and protests are are not unpatriotic,

1:34:08.640 --> 1:34:11.800
<v Speaker 1>according to new poll by a fifty eight percent to

1:34:11.880 --> 1:34:15.240
<v Speaker 1>thirty five percent margin. Those surveying at the Quinnipiac University

1:34:15.240 --> 1:34:18.840
<v Speaker 1>poll voice disagreement with the notion that players who during

1:34:18.840 --> 1:34:22.760
<v Speaker 1>games uh protests police shootings of unarmed black men are

1:34:22.760 --> 1:34:28.240
<v Speaker 1>disrespectful of America. A majority of voters also offered support

1:34:28.280 --> 1:34:31.040
<v Speaker 1>for athletes right to protest on their playing fields and

1:34:31.120 --> 1:34:37.559
<v Speaker 1>courts at expressed opposition. Now, first of all, calling them

1:34:37.640 --> 1:34:41.240
<v Speaker 1>unpatriotic is very strong, So I feel like the poll

1:34:41.640 --> 1:34:46.559
<v Speaker 1>is automatically skewing, uh and making it likely or to

1:34:46.560 --> 1:34:49.280
<v Speaker 1>get a certain outcome. To to to ask do you agree

1:34:49.400 --> 1:34:52.720
<v Speaker 1>with their choice to do it? To call them unpatriotic

1:34:52.880 --> 1:34:56.680
<v Speaker 1>is to pass judgment on the individuals themselves. It's I

1:34:56.720 --> 1:34:58.439
<v Speaker 1>think a much better way to approach this would be

1:34:58.479 --> 1:35:03.280
<v Speaker 1>to say, what do you think of the decision to

1:35:03.320 --> 1:35:07.640
<v Speaker 1>do that? Um? So that's one part of this. And

1:35:07.680 --> 1:35:10.439
<v Speaker 1>then also having the right to protest on the on

1:35:10.479 --> 1:35:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the playing field, that's you know, I think that's just

1:35:15.120 --> 1:35:19.120
<v Speaker 1>that's only fift so it's pretty evenly split. But I

1:35:19.120 --> 1:35:20.400
<v Speaker 1>think a lot of that is just people who don't

1:35:20.479 --> 1:35:26.200
<v Speaker 1>understand that, you know, sure enough, Uh. The owners are

1:35:26.240 --> 1:35:30.880
<v Speaker 1>allowed to set rules and regulations for their for their businesses.

1:35:31.920 --> 1:35:34.760
<v Speaker 1>So it's not a right issue, it's a what is

1:35:34.800 --> 1:35:37.160
<v Speaker 1>the owner one issue? But this was the most interesting

1:35:37.200 --> 1:35:39.519
<v Speaker 1>part of this, you because we're talking about all his

1:35:39.640 --> 1:35:41.960
<v Speaker 1>NFL knealing stuff these days. This most an interesting part

1:35:41.960 --> 1:35:47.679
<v Speaker 1>of it that sevent of Republicans called NFL players kneeling

1:35:47.720 --> 1:35:52.000
<v Speaker 1>unpatriotic and said they did not have a right to

1:35:52.040 --> 1:35:56.320
<v Speaker 1>protest during games. Well eight five and eight two of

1:35:56.360 --> 1:36:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Democrats disagreed, So the NFL kneeling issue which brings in

1:36:02.680 --> 1:36:06.040
<v Speaker 1>all different kinds of complexities, and you know it's just

1:36:06.160 --> 1:36:10.280
<v Speaker 1>a free speech thing. Is it a police relations with

1:36:10.320 --> 1:36:13.000
<v Speaker 1>minority communities? There's so many ways you can slice this

1:36:13.120 --> 1:36:17.879
<v Speaker 1>and look at this, but this has become just like guns,

1:36:18.960 --> 1:36:24.320
<v Speaker 1>a straight up polarized partisan issue. Whatever you know, whatever

1:36:24.400 --> 1:36:27.519
<v Speaker 1>you are, as party affiliation goes, is what you think

1:36:27.600 --> 1:36:31.600
<v Speaker 1>about this issue, according to this poll. With obviously with

1:36:31.640 --> 1:36:36.360
<v Speaker 1>some exceptions because eighty five percent, there's some some some

1:36:36.520 --> 1:36:40.519
<v Speaker 1>were left out of this, but it is overwhelmingly the

1:36:40.560 --> 1:36:44.439
<v Speaker 1>case now that just like if you support gun rights,

1:36:44.760 --> 1:36:50.439
<v Speaker 1>you are almost certainly a Republican. If you support the

1:36:50.760 --> 1:36:53.760
<v Speaker 1>right to life instead of the right to an abortion,

1:36:53.800 --> 1:36:56.679
<v Speaker 1>you're almost certainly a Republican. Now we can put NFL

1:36:56.840 --> 1:37:00.439
<v Speaker 1>kneeling during the anthem on this list of issues that

1:37:00.520 --> 1:37:04.040
<v Speaker 1>separate people out from each other and that are very

1:37:04.120 --> 1:37:08.800
<v Speaker 1>much part of the the the political proxy fight that's

1:37:08.800 --> 1:37:12.080
<v Speaker 1>going on all the time. So I think I think

1:37:12.120 --> 1:37:14.559
<v Speaker 1>you are gonna have some more neil and come to fall,

1:37:14.640 --> 1:37:17.360
<v Speaker 1>that's for sure. I can't I don't know enough to

1:37:17.400 --> 1:37:19.760
<v Speaker 1>say which teams and who's the most likely with it,

1:37:19.800 --> 1:37:24.360
<v Speaker 1>but you know, I'm just amazed to these Democrats who

1:37:24.360 --> 1:37:27.640
<v Speaker 1>say they don't find it on patriotic when somebody does that.

1:37:29.479 --> 1:37:31.599
<v Speaker 1>You know, the flag is also a cultural thing. Now,

1:37:31.640 --> 1:37:34.360
<v Speaker 1>I guess Democrats have this notion that there's no you know,

1:37:34.479 --> 1:37:38.639
<v Speaker 1>don't no need to respect the flag. I guess, Uh,

1:37:38.800 --> 1:37:52.280
<v Speaker 1>We'll be right back. Stay with me. He's holding the

1:37:52.360 --> 1:38:13.679
<v Speaker 1>line for America. Buck Sexton his back. Hey, team Buck,

1:38:14.080 --> 1:38:20.120
<v Speaker 1>it's time for roll Call, Roll Call Friday. Let me

1:38:20.240 --> 1:38:23.439
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have a little extended session here in the

1:38:23.560 --> 1:38:26.519
<v Speaker 1>Freedom public. Get into a little bit more of the

1:38:26.720 --> 1:38:29.719
<v Speaker 1>roll call then we do on an average day, although

1:38:30.320 --> 1:38:32.840
<v Speaker 1>lately I've been trying to extend it, uh, just because

1:38:32.880 --> 1:38:34.719
<v Speaker 1>I enjoyed doing it so much, because I like hearing

1:38:34.760 --> 1:38:37.960
<v Speaker 1>from all of you. Or I suppose technically it is

1:38:38.120 --> 1:38:41.200
<v Speaker 1>reading from all of you, but it's certainly something that

1:38:41.280 --> 1:38:46.080
<v Speaker 1>is that it's fun to do. So with that in mind,

1:38:46.960 --> 1:38:50.679
<v Speaker 1>let's get into it. We have hold on one second,

1:38:50.760 --> 1:38:53.320
<v Speaker 1>let's see we got here. It's it's coming up, it's coming.

1:38:53.320 --> 1:38:58.280
<v Speaker 1>There we go. Lannie, Hey buck Heart the show. Thank you,

<v Speaker 1>But I've realized that there you have it is my

1:39:36.000 --> 1:39:40.200
<v Speaker 1>uh is my latest and greatest filler for when I

1:39:40.240 --> 1:39:42.640
<v Speaker 1>can't get a segment to pop up as quickly as

1:39:42.640 --> 1:39:45.760
<v Speaker 1>I want. Brian rites, I thought this was funny. High

1:39:45.800 --> 1:39:52.240

<v Speaker 1>Sexton and uh, here we go. We have Hannah who writes,

1:40:58.720 --> 1:41:00.920
<v Speaker 1>hey man, love the show. Thanks for all you do

1:41:01.120 --> 1:41:04.599
<v Speaker 1>so as I commission a Men of the Blaze calendar.

1:41:05.640 --> 1:41:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Uh if I get this done, can we get you

1:41:08.840 --> 1:41:14.080
<v Speaker 1>for an October surprise? Also? I would go fund me

1:41:14.160 --> 1:41:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Hillary is what happened in your impression of her? I

1:41:17.479 --> 1:41:22.080
<v Speaker 1>listened for the impressions millennial and Hillary are the best. Wow.

1:41:22.240 --> 1:41:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Thank you Hannah Oss Homie Shields High great great to

1:41:28.760 --> 1:41:30.960
<v Speaker 1>hear from you. I got the Hillary impersonation. It's so

1:41:31.000 --> 1:41:33.479
<v Speaker 1>funny that people like it because I always think to myself,

1:41:34.120 --> 1:41:36.160
<v Speaker 1>is anyone gonna be mad at me? Because this doesn't

1:41:36.200 --> 1:41:40.200
<v Speaker 1>actually sound at all like Hillary Clinton? But it, as

1:41:40.240 --> 1:41:43.840
<v Speaker 1>I say, it captures her essence in a way that

1:41:44.000 --> 1:41:48.439
<v Speaker 1>I think very few other impersonators are able to. I

1:41:48.479 --> 1:41:53.479
<v Speaker 1>think that there's there's a particular resonance with folks when

1:41:53.520 --> 1:41:56.479
<v Speaker 1>they hear me do the Hillary impersonation, because they're like,

1:41:56.720 --> 1:41:59.880
<v Speaker 1>you know what, it doesn't sound like Hillary, but I

1:42:00.080 --> 1:42:05.840
<v Speaker 1>know anyway that it is in fact Hillary. Uh. Next

1:42:05.920 --> 1:42:09.280
<v Speaker 1>up is Matt buck You've been lamenting the lack of

1:42:09.360 --> 1:42:12.519
<v Speaker 1>proper email address for the show. Have you thought about

1:42:12.560 --> 1:42:15.280
<v Speaker 1>having a contest fliti just for choose the address. I'd

1:42:15.320 --> 1:42:19.240
<v Speaker 1>go for buck Topia at an email address, as always

1:42:19.240 --> 1:42:23.040
<v Speaker 1>loved the show Shields High. Matt, that's actually a great idea.

1:42:23.240 --> 1:42:25.600
<v Speaker 1>I like, I like buck Topia. We're gonna have a

1:42:25.600 --> 1:42:27.680
<v Speaker 1>new email address. We're gonna have it soon. I'm just

1:42:27.800 --> 1:42:32.679
<v Speaker 1>waiting to get more information on our website redesign, which

1:42:32.720 --> 1:42:35.320
<v Speaker 1>is happening as we speak, and once that is up,

1:42:35.360 --> 1:42:39.519
<v Speaker 1>we will be able to go from there. Uh. Next

1:42:39.600 --> 1:42:42.920
<v Speaker 1>up here, William. I know your generation needs to have

1:42:43.080 --> 1:42:45.720
<v Speaker 1>your hero, but when you put it under the microscope,

1:42:46.400 --> 1:42:51.559
<v Speaker 1>Lebron is just a distant second best from his area,

1:42:51.720 --> 1:42:58.320
<v Speaker 1>nows Michael Jordan's I know that Michael has more uh

1:42:58.520 --> 1:43:01.880
<v Speaker 1>more rings. I know that right, and I know that

1:43:03.040 --> 1:43:08.680
<v Speaker 1>um Jordan is an icon that is really timeless. But

1:43:08.720 --> 1:43:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I gotta say, Lebron, he's so dominant, so dominant, you

1:43:14.160 --> 1:43:15.800
<v Speaker 1>know what the truth is, guys, I don't watch enough

1:43:15.840 --> 1:43:17.960
<v Speaker 1>basketball to have all that much of an informed opinion

1:43:18.000 --> 1:43:21.519
<v Speaker 1>on this. Lebron has been the eight finals in a row.

1:43:23.120 --> 1:43:26.160
<v Speaker 1>That's a very good point. That's impressive as heck. And

1:43:26.240 --> 1:43:28.519
<v Speaker 1>Jordan never did that. But that's because Jordan left to

1:43:28.520 --> 1:43:32.400
<v Speaker 1>play baseball. Just just saying, there you go. Yeah, you know,

1:43:32.560 --> 1:43:35.160
<v Speaker 1>I I was last night. I was moving into my

1:43:35.200 --> 1:43:39.320
<v Speaker 1>apartment and down here and I spent you know, I

1:43:39.360 --> 1:43:42.360
<v Speaker 1>spent some time and I had to go out on

1:43:42.400 --> 1:43:45.120
<v Speaker 1>the street in the neighborhood and I walked and I

1:43:45.120 --> 1:43:48.160
<v Speaker 1>remember thinking, oh my gosh, I thought New York was loud.

1:43:49.080 --> 1:43:51.800
<v Speaker 1>This city is crazy, Like it's so loud to hear.

1:43:51.840 --> 1:43:54.080
<v Speaker 1>There's so much noise and commotion, so many things going

1:43:54.120 --> 1:43:57.400
<v Speaker 1>on in the street. But sure enough, of what I

1:43:57.479 --> 1:44:00.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize until I went out and saw the oceans

1:44:00.960 --> 1:44:08.439
<v Speaker 1>of people running around everywhere with red jerseys on, is

1:44:08.560 --> 1:44:13.040
<v Speaker 1>that the Capitals were in the Stanley Cup Finals. Did

1:44:13.080 --> 1:44:14.920
<v Speaker 1>you know this, Producer, Mike, I was unaware of this,

1:44:15.120 --> 1:44:16.719
<v Speaker 1>and I'm here in d C. I'm in the swamp.

1:44:17.080 --> 1:44:20.000
<v Speaker 1>It turns out a swamp team is in the is

1:44:20.000 --> 1:44:22.400
<v Speaker 1>in the Stanley Cup finals and and in fact one,

1:44:23.520 --> 1:44:28.120
<v Speaker 1>so everybody was was getting really uh you know, amped

1:44:28.200 --> 1:44:30.880
<v Speaker 1>up over this obviously, all these people walking around these

1:44:30.880 --> 1:44:34.320
<v Speaker 1>red capitals jerseys in the street. I was looking for

1:44:34.360 --> 1:44:37.479
<v Speaker 1>paper products. I won't get any worse specificity than that.

1:44:37.479 --> 1:44:39.599
<v Speaker 1>It was kind of it was towards the later part

1:44:39.600 --> 1:44:42.400
<v Speaker 1>of the evening. I was looking for paper products, because

1:44:42.960 --> 1:44:45.679
<v Speaker 1>truth be told, when you move into a place sometimes

1:44:45.680 --> 1:44:48.280
<v Speaker 1>you forget things like I don't have paper products there.

1:44:49.040 --> 1:44:53.599
<v Speaker 1>And I went into a a Walgreens. And when I

1:44:53.640 --> 1:44:57.840
<v Speaker 1>was in the wall Greens, it was wall to wall

1:44:58.479 --> 1:45:01.479
<v Speaker 1>people in these red jersey ease and you know, they

1:45:01.479 --> 1:45:05.880
<v Speaker 1>were all um excited about the capitals. But my favorite

1:45:05.920 --> 1:45:07.720
<v Speaker 1>thing was that there was a real commotion at one

1:45:07.760 --> 1:45:12.200
<v Speaker 1>point by the coolers, and I could see what was

1:45:12.240 --> 1:45:14.000
<v Speaker 1>going on. These guys were just looking around this One

1:45:14.000 --> 1:45:18.360
<v Speaker 1>guy goes, you, guys, oh no, they only have one

1:45:18.439 --> 1:45:21.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of beer left, and it's oh duels, and the

1:45:21.160 --> 1:45:25.120
<v Speaker 1>whole crowds like no. They all got so upset because

1:45:25.120 --> 1:45:27.960
<v Speaker 1>there was a fair amount of drinking going on, and uh,

1:45:28.000 --> 1:45:31.639
<v Speaker 1>pretty much every store within I'd say a ten block

1:45:31.760 --> 1:45:37.080
<v Speaker 1>radius of this downtown d C Stanley Cup party had

1:45:38.160 --> 1:45:41.040
<v Speaker 1>had been ransacked. I mean people paid for it, but

1:45:41.040 --> 1:45:43.840
<v Speaker 1>but they were out of booze, and so when the

1:45:43.920 --> 1:45:47.439
<v Speaker 1>only thing they had left was oh duels, that did

1:45:47.479 --> 1:45:50.720
<v Speaker 1>not sit well with the folks who had assembled there.

1:45:50.720 --> 1:45:53.479
<v Speaker 1>They were not they were not happy about it. Uh,

1:45:53.760 --> 1:45:55.920
<v Speaker 1>next up here? Oh yeah, So that was my story

1:45:55.920 --> 1:45:57.439
<v Speaker 1>about the Stanley Cup. I also thought it was a

1:45:57.439 --> 1:45:59.759
<v Speaker 1>playoff game. I didn't realize it was a Stanley Cup finals.

1:45:59.760 --> 1:46:05.599
<v Speaker 1>So I need to become well better verse, I suppose

1:46:05.680 --> 1:46:11.200
<v Speaker 1>in DC based teams. Willie writes Buck legal aliens can

1:46:11.280 --> 1:46:15.280
<v Speaker 1>lose their citizenship when committing a felony. Once lost, they

1:46:15.280 --> 1:46:20.120
<v Speaker 1>are classed as illegal aliens. Um well, Willie, good to know.

1:46:20.320 --> 1:46:23.479
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much for for the tip. I know,

1:46:23.520 --> 1:46:26.160
<v Speaker 1>if you're here on a visa, you can certainly be

1:46:26.280 --> 1:46:30.519
<v Speaker 1>deported if you do anything bad. But is you know, Mike,

1:46:30.560 --> 1:46:32.880
<v Speaker 1>can you check that? Can you you can? Really? If

1:46:32.920 --> 1:46:36.880
<v Speaker 1>you're a permanent resident, you can lose your citizenship. That's

1:46:36.880 --> 1:46:41.160
<v Speaker 1>an interesting thing to throw into the mix. Uh. That

1:46:41.280 --> 1:46:45.400
<v Speaker 1>is something that might have escaped the Buck wisdom such

1:46:45.439 --> 1:46:50.360
<v Speaker 1>as it is here we go, Aries writes, I'm sick

1:46:50.479 --> 1:46:54.200
<v Speaker 1>and tired. Uh, I'm sick and tired of these stupid

1:46:54.439 --> 1:46:57.080
<v Speaker 1>conservatives getting their butts kicked on TV. As a concerns

1:46:57.080 --> 1:47:01.120
<v Speaker 1>illegal immigration, the leftists always say that immigrants cammit less

1:47:01.160 --> 1:47:04.240
<v Speaker 1>crime than most of the native population, which is exactly

1:47:04.280 --> 1:47:08.960
<v Speaker 1>true for every non Islamic immigrant population in the world. However,

1:47:09.120 --> 1:47:13.400
<v Speaker 1>close to six of illegal aliens are criminals. If an

1:47:13.439 --> 1:47:16.080
<v Speaker 1>uneducated white male like me knows this, why don't more

1:47:16.120 --> 1:47:18.320
<v Speaker 1>people speaking up for our movement? No? Are they just

1:47:18.439 --> 1:47:26.760
<v Speaker 1>brain lazy or stupid? Um hmm? Interesting? Alright? Aries? So

1:47:26.880 --> 1:47:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Arias thrown out something I don't know if I've never

1:47:29.200 --> 1:47:32.960
<v Speaker 1>seen that statistic before. So there you there you go? Aris? Uh,

1:47:33.640 --> 1:47:36.080
<v Speaker 1>roll call. I just I read what the people say.

1:47:37.280 --> 1:47:39.200
<v Speaker 1>Joseph next up here here it's trying to get to

1:47:39.240 --> 1:47:43.840
<v Speaker 1>your sponsor. Is it nine lives apparel dot com? Okay? Uh?

1:47:43.920 --> 1:47:46.560
<v Speaker 1>From Joe here, Joe, I'm sorry if my my addiction

1:47:47.040 --> 1:47:49.960
<v Speaker 1>was insufficient here, which can often often be the case.

1:47:50.560 --> 1:47:57.879
<v Speaker 1>It is nine line apparel dot com. Nine line because

1:47:58.320 --> 1:48:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it's a specific reference to a nine line is when

1:48:02.040 --> 1:48:05.920
<v Speaker 1>there is a soldier who makes a MEDIVAC request for

1:48:05.960 --> 1:48:08.479
<v Speaker 1>someone injured on the battlefield, so that the nine line

1:48:08.560 --> 1:48:12.880
<v Speaker 1>is to get somebody off the battlefield. Uh. And that's

1:48:12.920 --> 1:48:16.519
<v Speaker 1>where nine line apparel comes from. So think of it

1:48:16.640 --> 1:48:19.800
<v Speaker 1>like nine like the number nine, and line like draw

1:48:19.880 --> 1:48:23.840
<v Speaker 1>a line in the sand. Conservatives on one side, evil

1:48:23.840 --> 1:48:27.559
<v Speaker 1>liberals on the other. Uh. Well, I want to get

1:48:27.560 --> 1:48:29.000
<v Speaker 1>into more roll call, but you know what, let me

1:48:29.479 --> 1:48:31.519
<v Speaker 1>let me take a quick policy or take a little beat,

1:48:31.720 --> 1:48:33.880
<v Speaker 1>and when we come back, we'll hear more of your

1:48:33.960 --> 1:48:36.240
<v Speaker 1>thoughts and we'll kick it off right for the weekend.

1:48:36.280 --> 1:48:49.040
<v Speaker 1>So stay with yeah, come on, you know better than

1:48:49.080 --> 1:48:52.000
<v Speaker 1>both those things. And uh, this this was into the

1:48:52.040 --> 1:48:56.400
<v Speaker 1>psychology of Donald Trump? Is who is he? And what

1:48:56.479 --> 1:48:58.559
<v Speaker 1>does he think? And why does he think so normally?

1:48:58.600 --> 1:49:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Why does he excell abnormal? He's as dismissive of truth

1:49:02.080 --> 1:49:06.479
<v Speaker 1>as he is. It's you we go on with it.

1:49:06.640 --> 1:49:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I just want to say the most disturbing part of

1:49:09.120 --> 1:49:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the news to me today with this notion that he's

1:49:12.439 --> 1:49:16.000
<v Speaker 1>he wants to now send troops to the border. Um,

1:49:16.520 --> 1:49:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you know it's true that. Okay, come on, like Michael

1:49:22.439 --> 1:49:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Ken lead to the uh, the diminishment of democracy. Come on, democracy.

1:49:29.280 --> 1:49:33.479
<v Speaker 1>My only word for it is you you outdid yourself

1:49:33.479 --> 1:49:36.559
<v Speaker 1>without montage. Man, that was amazing. I asked for a gurgling.

1:49:36.840 --> 1:49:39.840
<v Speaker 1>That was amazing. You get you get it straight up,

1:49:40.760 --> 1:49:45.200
<v Speaker 1>destroyer Mark River. I love it. And the thing is,

1:49:45.439 --> 1:49:47.360
<v Speaker 1>that's the guy they bring out when Senn wants to

1:49:47.400 --> 1:49:50.120
<v Speaker 1>get serious. That's the guy who comes out. And it's

1:49:50.120 --> 1:49:54.240
<v Speaker 1>just like it's like, everybody, wait, be quiet, everyone be quiet.

1:49:54.640 --> 1:50:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Gurgan wants to wants to gurgle for asdiction for democracy

1:50:01.479 --> 1:50:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and you look, you heard I'm not it's a good impersonation.

1:50:06.360 --> 1:50:08.599
<v Speaker 1>You you know, you could be a big Gurgen fan

1:50:08.760 --> 1:50:11.600
<v Speaker 1>or not. And you know, I'm just saying the impersonation.

1:50:11.640 --> 1:50:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I think it's it's pretty jet democracy. That's what all

1:50:17.720 --> 1:50:19.280
<v Speaker 1>My favorite was to do X. I used to have

1:50:19.320 --> 1:50:21.240
<v Speaker 1>to sit there sometimes. I used to have to sit

1:50:21.280 --> 1:50:23.479
<v Speaker 1>there and be like, oh now I get to get

1:50:23.520 --> 1:50:26.200
<v Speaker 1>lectured by this guy or a young whipper snapper over here,

1:50:26.360 --> 1:50:34.040
<v Speaker 1>or northing about another thing or uh good times, good times.

1:50:34.479 --> 1:50:39.679
<v Speaker 1>Let's see what we have next year, um boom we have.

1:50:39.920 --> 1:50:42.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry I made my I made it. I made

1:50:42.880 --> 1:50:46.040
<v Speaker 1>it disappear the messages, which I should not do team

1:50:46.080 --> 1:50:48.880
<v Speaker 1>because I've got limited time here to get to all

1:50:48.920 --> 1:50:51.960
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the roll call. Oh man, this weekend,

1:50:52.000 --> 1:50:54.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm gonna drink some mescal. That's what I'm gonna do.

1:50:55.280 --> 1:50:57.360
<v Speaker 1>That's what That's what I've got on. That's the only

1:50:57.360 --> 1:50:59.960
<v Speaker 1>thing I know for sure. There will be there will

1:51:00.040 --> 1:51:02.920
<v Speaker 1>be mescal. You've seen there will be blood. Well, we

1:51:03.080 --> 1:51:06.760
<v Speaker 1>drink up the oil. That was actually pretty good too

1:51:06.800 --> 1:51:09.400
<v Speaker 1>for Thank you for On the Fly. I haven't watched

1:51:10.200 --> 1:51:13.040
<v Speaker 1>that movie in a while, and Daniel day Lewis is

1:51:13.080 --> 1:51:15.080
<v Speaker 1>like creepy good in that. It's like, did you actually

1:51:15.120 --> 1:51:17.720
<v Speaker 1>just become that that person? Because it doesn't seem very

1:51:17.800 --> 1:51:21.320
<v Speaker 1>much like there's much Daniel Lewis left as you're watching that.

1:51:21.439 --> 1:51:25.160
<v Speaker 1>All right, Um, we have Taylor next in our roll

1:51:25.200 --> 1:51:29.479
<v Speaker 1>call here, Taylor Rights, don't beat me up too bad, bro.

1:51:29.720 --> 1:51:33.479
<v Speaker 1>The t bones were on sale. These stuff Portobello mushrooms. Though,

1:51:33.640 --> 1:51:39.240
<v Speaker 1>oh my look, I don't hate on vegetables when vegetables

1:51:39.280 --> 1:51:44.879
<v Speaker 1>are used as either an accompaniment to or a vehicle

1:51:45.040 --> 1:51:50.280
<v Speaker 1>for the ingestion of meat or cheese or dairy. So

1:51:50.560 --> 1:51:53.360
<v Speaker 1>those are my rules. Veggies are great as long as

1:51:53.400 --> 1:51:57.439
<v Speaker 1>there is meat, and there's more meat than veggies and

1:51:57.840 --> 1:52:00.360
<v Speaker 1>veggies that are used so that you can either eat

1:52:00.760 --> 1:52:03.920
<v Speaker 1>a form of cheese or any form of meat that

1:52:04.080 --> 1:52:07.200
<v Speaker 1>is a completely acceptable choice, as well as to your

1:52:07.240 --> 1:52:09.479
<v Speaker 1>t bone. In this photo you've sent me Taylor instead

1:52:09.560 --> 1:52:13.640
<v Speaker 1>of ribby. I will say this, Ribby is very fatty.

1:52:14.040 --> 1:52:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I know that it's fatty and it's delicious, but sometimes

1:52:18.760 --> 1:52:20.280
<v Speaker 1>you want to mix it up. You know, steak is

1:52:20.280 --> 1:52:23.880
<v Speaker 1>a steak. I'll go flank steak, I'll go ribby, I'll

1:52:23.880 --> 1:52:26.040
<v Speaker 1>go butcher cut steak. I like all of the above

1:52:26.520 --> 1:52:28.080
<v Speaker 1>as long as you get a good seer on it,

1:52:28.479 --> 1:52:31.200
<v Speaker 1>and you cook that meat well, then you season in

1:52:31.280 --> 1:52:33.679
<v Speaker 1>a bit too much. You know, it's a little bit,

1:52:33.960 --> 1:52:35.559
<v Speaker 1>and then I think you're Then I think you're all good.

1:52:35.560 --> 1:52:37.640
<v Speaker 1>Then I think you're good to go. So thank you

1:52:37.720 --> 1:52:39.960
<v Speaker 1>for sharing that with me, my friend. I would like

1:52:40.040 --> 1:52:42.479
<v Speaker 1>to get to get some cooking going this weekend, but

1:52:42.600 --> 1:52:45.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, we'll see if that ends up happening. John,

1:52:45.840 --> 1:52:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Next up here, do you want to get someone from

1:52:48.040 --> 1:52:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the boy Scouts on? There are a ton of misconceptions

1:52:51.600 --> 1:52:55.680
<v Speaker 1>about the changes recently, Mike, Do we have something for

1:52:55.720 --> 1:52:58.240
<v Speaker 1>the for the boy Scout situation? Here? Maybe? I mean,

1:52:58.280 --> 1:53:00.720
<v Speaker 1>is there Well, we'll talk about maybe there's like a

1:53:00.800 --> 1:53:06.400
<v Speaker 1>National Boy Scout expert uh or or troop leader or

1:53:06.439 --> 1:53:08.960
<v Speaker 1>something whatever. We wouldn't want an expert. We wanted somebody

1:53:09.000 --> 1:53:11.479
<v Speaker 1>party organization. But I'll give it some thought, my friend.

1:53:11.560 --> 1:53:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm feeling very inclusive today, uh like salad minus the egg,

1:53:17.160 --> 1:53:21.200
<v Speaker 1>because I wanted to be vegan inclusive. Bill right, Hey Buck,

1:53:21.200 --> 1:53:23.800
<v Speaker 1>I've been seeing some news lately about the guy that

1:53:23.800 --> 1:53:26.880
<v Speaker 1>did the Las Vegas shooting, regarding his motives, but I

1:53:27.000 --> 1:53:30.160
<v Speaker 1>questioned the sources. The fact that we also haven't heard

1:53:30.240 --> 1:53:32.000
<v Speaker 1>very much follow up on this gives me pause. What

1:53:32.040 --> 1:53:35.479
<v Speaker 1>have you heard? Bill? Great question? And the truth is

1:53:35.560 --> 1:53:39.080
<v Speaker 1>I have heard very little on this. I don't have

1:53:39.200 --> 1:53:42.719
<v Speaker 1>any outside sources or any particular insight into what happened

1:53:43.320 --> 1:53:46.479
<v Speaker 1>in Las Vegas. All I can really say to you is, um,

1:53:47.439 --> 1:53:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I would like there to be more answers. I've said

1:53:50.080 --> 1:53:51.960
<v Speaker 1>from the beginning, if you recall, if you've ben listen

1:53:52.000 --> 1:53:55.320
<v Speaker 1>to the show for a long time, that my expectation

1:53:56.400 --> 1:54:00.520
<v Speaker 1>was that we would not find out really de finitively

1:54:00.600 --> 1:54:04.080
<v Speaker 1>what this guy's motive was. That there would never really

1:54:04.080 --> 1:54:05.800
<v Speaker 1>come a time when we would be able to say

1:54:05.800 --> 1:54:09.559
<v Speaker 1>to ourselves, UM, okay, we acent know what was going

1:54:09.640 --> 1:54:12.320
<v Speaker 1>on here, so that that's where I am on that

1:54:13.040 --> 1:54:18.519
<v Speaker 1>uh next up here, Tom writes, Oss can't even remember

1:54:18.520 --> 1:54:20.400
<v Speaker 1>where I was when you made the announcement. You've been

1:54:20.800 --> 1:54:25.760
<v Speaker 1>on air five days a week. Buck, Seriously, wouldn't eating

1:54:25.880 --> 1:54:29.519
<v Speaker 1>less vegetables be better for the planet? Killing and eating

1:54:29.520 --> 1:54:33.400
<v Speaker 1>the animals that relentlessly murder our precious oxygen? Providing plants

1:54:33.440 --> 1:54:36.480
<v Speaker 1>is the only way to be green. Don't these vegans

1:54:36.560 --> 1:54:40.320
<v Speaker 1>care about the planet? Tom, I appreciate the sarcasm, and

1:54:40.360 --> 1:54:42.400
<v Speaker 1>also thank you for being with me from the very

1:54:42.440 --> 1:54:45.040
<v Speaker 1>earliest days. It is a great honor and is very

1:54:45.120 --> 1:54:48.680
<v Speaker 1>much appreciated. And you're a good man. He spells Tom

1:54:48.720 --> 1:54:51.480
<v Speaker 1>with an h I've never I've only seen that once before.

1:54:51.520 --> 1:54:57.680
<v Speaker 1>It's with the guy from Radiohead. That's right, Yeah, I

1:54:57.680 --> 1:54:59.880
<v Speaker 1>know I know some things about some stuff. That's gonna

1:54:59.920 --> 1:55:01.880
<v Speaker 1>be it for the freedom and for today, my friends.

1:55:01.920 --> 1:55:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Next week I'll have a podcast up speaking of freedom.

1:55:04.200 --> 1:55:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Hut the Freedom up with Buck Sexton. So I get

1:55:05.840 --> 1:55:07.680
<v Speaker 1>ready for that one. This week we got pushed for

1:55:07.720 --> 1:55:10.000
<v Speaker 1>some other stuff. It will be up next week. And

1:55:10.120 --> 1:55:12.080
<v Speaker 1>uh that also means that you've got a great weekend

1:55:12.120 --> 1:55:15.000
<v Speaker 1>ahead of you, Because I say so see you all

1:55:15.040 --> 1:55:17.160
<v Speaker 1>on Monday, or at least talk to you all Monday.

1:55:17.320 --> 1:55:22.680
<v Speaker 1>Shield Tie. The enigmatic US president is dead. ISIS is

1:55:22.680 --> 1:55:25.240
<v Speaker 1>attacking on multiple fronts, and the U S Special Forces

1:55:25.280 --> 1:55:28.800
<v Speaker 1>call on a mercenary cyber warrior to stop the crisis.

1:55:29.320 --> 1:55:33.440
<v Speaker 1>This is Anubis. An aging marine sergeant and battle warren

1:55:33.520 --> 1:55:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Army major face an enemy that turns the Internet into

1:55:36.040 --> 1:55:40.320
<v Speaker 1>a terrorist weapon and makes our existing concepts of security archaic.

1:55:41.000 --> 1:55:43.840
<v Speaker 1>A catastrophe of biblical proportions is about to unfold. The

1:55:43.840 --> 1:55:47.480
<v Speaker 1>new president is facing a ruthless, relentless caliphate, and our

1:55:47.560 --> 1:55:50.160
<v Speaker 1>military and elected leaders have no means to stop it.

1:55:50.560 --> 1:55:54.920
<v Speaker 1>The only real questions are when and where? This is Anubis.

1:55:55.320 --> 1:55:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Today's headline shows what is happening in the Middle East.

1:55:57.760 --> 1:56:01.760
