The battle for Portland 2 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: wages on fourteen or shot at a funeral in Chicago. 3 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: The Pelosi virus is spreading. The Missouri Attorney General is 4 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: going to tell us why all charges should be dropped 5 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: against the mcclass keys, and Rutgers wants to promote incorrect 6 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: grammar in solidarity with Black Lives Matter. This this is 7 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is 8 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: to decode what really matters with passionable intelligence. Make no 9 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: mistake American, Great, great American. Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. 10 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: He's a great guy. No, welcome everyone to the Buck 11 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: set Show. My, oh my, the stuff that is going 12 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: on in Portland is nuts, crazy, isn't it. You haven't 13 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: seen some of the videos they're circulating all over the place. 14 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: They are, of course trying to tell us that what 15 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: you're seeing is democracy and action, that these are mostly 16 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: peaceful protests. They're mostly peaceful. I mean they have set 17 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: up in phalanx formation in the videos that you can 18 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: see operating with the rehearsed tactics and cohesive maneuver of 19 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: a domestic terrorist paramilitary group, and they're trying to destroy 20 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: federal courthouses, and the only thing the media focus is 21 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: on right now. This is a fascinating example of the 22 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: propaganda at work here. The only thing the media wants 23 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: to talk about is the police response. So you have 24 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: the Democrats undermining our society. These are all Democrats doing this. 25 00:01:55,160 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: And I want to be almost too insist on this point. Yeah, 26 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: I know all their anarchists are no, no, no, First 27 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: and foremost, these are Democrats. These are the shock troops, 28 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: the stormtroopers. This is part of the Democrat Blitzkrieg of 29 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. That's what is happening right now, the mobilization 30 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: of all these different movements on the street, the rhetoric 31 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: that has taken hold, not just for community organizers and 32 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: rabble rousers of all kinds, but in the corporate boardroom now, 33 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: the most powerful corporations in the country. This is the 34 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: organized institutional establishment left embracing a radicalism that we've known 35 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: is there and has been growing for a long time. 36 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: Now it's running the show. And if you're wondering just 37 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: to what degree, Joe Biden, who's supposed to be the moderate, 38 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: longstanding solid as a rock, the Rock of Gibraltar, of 39 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: the Democrat already, He's been a Joe's been in the 40 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: game for forty years. He'll bring us back together. Joe 41 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: worked for Obama as his VP for eight years. It's 42 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: all a sham, it's all a facade. It's meant to 43 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: fool you. Biden is just the puppet they're putting him forward. 44 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: He is the empty vessel, empty up top in the brain, 45 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: empty when it comes to courage and virtue and leadership. 46 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: He is the empty vessel through which the far left 47 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: will dictate policy in this country. While we're seeing just 48 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: stunning stuff, I mean, the most aggressive, violent Antifa style 49 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: protesting since I can't even think maybe the wto Mayhem 50 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: in Seattle, which was almost now I think, decades ago. 51 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: We are seeing stuff that we have not had to 52 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: see for a long time. And you think that any 53 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: president or any presidential candidate, I should say, looking at this, 54 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: would understand you can't allow this. You can't allow people 55 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: for reasons that are really not even disclosed. Right, some 56 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: of its black lives matter, some of it's and the 57 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: incarcel or the Carcel state, all these phrases and slogans 58 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: that show up at these protests, and if you want 59 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: to know how stupid and how theckless and reckless is 60 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: the Democrat left. Now they will they will have not 61 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: just the people on the streets who want to destroy everything, 62 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: They'll have some of their favorite members of Congress. Right, 63 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: stuff like this. This is Ianna Pressley, congressmoman Ianna Pressley, 64 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: she tweeted out earlier today, cancel rent, cancel mortgage, cancel 65 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: student debt. And to this, I want to say, cancel 66 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: credit card debt, right, cancel, cancel all of mine. I 67 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: don't want to pay anybody anything. I just want more 68 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: for me, me, me. I don't want to have to 69 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: go through with my obligations. I don't want to have 70 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: to honor contracts. Right, That's that's the mentality of the left. 71 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: That's what the Democrats are letting you know. This is childishness. 72 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: This is this is the outcry of a mob of 73 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: mad babies. We want this or we'll destroy things it. 74 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:26,799 Speaker 1: We'll scream and we'll cry. This isn't using the political system. 75 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: This is using the threat of force. This is coercion. 76 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: This is destruction. This is vandalism, this is criminality. And 77 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: yet what does Biden Oh, that's right, he's such a trustworthy, 78 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: a seasoned elder statesman. He's definitely an elder. And look, 79 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: I know there are seventy eight year olds who could 80 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: kick my button run ten miles tomorrow, you know, before breakfast. 81 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: I get that Biden's not one of them. That's the point. Okay, 82 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: Biden's not there. You know, we've all seen it. We 83 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: know there's deterioration signing up to be president, that they 84 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: would put somebody forward that it's it's truly crazy to 85 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: think that this guy has eight more, not just decent 86 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: years of health, eight more years of a ferocious energy 87 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: and focus necessary to be president president. You know, say 88 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: what you will about Obama, and there's a lot that 89 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: I've said and a lot that I like Obama. You know, 90 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: Obama had the focus. Obama had the health and the 91 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: energy to drag this country closer to socialism than it's 92 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: ever been. You know, that was not a concern with 93 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. It's a concern, and more than a concern. 94 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: It's ombvious. But while this is happening, and Portland now 95 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: has become this is all about the theater right and terrorism, 96 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 1: and they're acting like domestic terrorists, less than lethal terrorists. 97 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: They'll hurt cops. They'll hit them with plywood with nails 98 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: in it, they'll throw rocks at them. But they know 99 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: that if they start killing people, it'll cause too much 100 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: of a backlash. Then finally, the good guys will be 101 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: willing to use the overwhelming force necessary to defeat the 102 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 1: bad guys. We're just we're not there yet. There's no 103 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: political will in these cities. The people that are calling 104 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: the shots for law enforcement officers at the local and 105 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: state level in Oregon, in Washington are unwilling to give 106 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: them the leeway necessary to shut this stuff down. But 107 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: these domestic terrorists are doing this for the theatrics. They 108 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: do this for the Graham, so to speak, the Instagram. 109 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: They're doing this because they want everyone across the country 110 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: and around the world to focus on their banners and 111 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: their movement. And it creates this energy, right, this infectious 112 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: energy of political stupidity. But it's out there, it's all 113 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: over the place. People say, yeah, that's right. This is 114 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: a really a funnel for anti Trump outrage. This is 115 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: a funnel of trumped arrangement syndrome at their creating. With 116 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: all of this, and I'm seeing now on social media 117 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: people will do things like share a video of of 118 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: you know, really nasty police violence and this was a 119 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: blue check. I can't remember who did it, but it 120 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: was nasty police violence and it went super viral, superviral. 121 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: You see what's happening here. Just wait until six months passes. 122 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: If Trump has his way, it's like the Stasi all 123 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: over again. Oh yeah, that's what we're hearing now. And 124 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: those losers at the Lincoln Project, it really is. It's 125 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: it's the Loser Project there. It's just a whole bunch 126 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: of losers. They're just good at doing one thing, losing 127 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: and trying to tear it down people smarter, better and 128 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: more successful than they are. That is the Lincoln Project, 129 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: which if you don't know what that is, it's this 130 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: group that's supposedly Republicans that want to help get Biden elected. 131 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: George Will I'll never read another George Will column by 132 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: choice unless I'm going to make fun of it for 133 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: as long as if George Will now says he's gonna 134 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: vote for Biden. Wow, he's establishment. Establishment Conservatives. They see 135 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: what's going on in the country and they're thinking, yeah, 136 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: I want more of the anarchy and recklessness and destruction 137 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: of the rule of law and socialism and stadism and tyranny, 138 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: because I'm the real Conservatives. People are lunatics. George Will 139 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: you know, always he is always kind of a smarmy, 140 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: little smarmy little schoolmarm you know, really was. I would 141 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: never really liked that guy anyway. So I don't know him. 142 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: I just don't I know his persona. I know the 143 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: way that he presents himself the hall monitor of the 144 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: conservative movement. So here we are. Now it's so clear 145 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: that the Democrats are rooting for the violent mob that's 146 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: trying to tear down our federal courthouses. Who remember, we 147 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: were lectured for the entirety of the Trump presidency about 148 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: how Trump is undermining our institutions. Trump is destroying our institutions. 149 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: That was the talking point. That was the line that 150 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: you heard from so many people across the Democrat Party 151 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: in the media. And now here we have an instance 152 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: of mobilized leftist Democrats who are literally trying to destroy 153 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: an institution of the federal government, a federal courthouse in Portland, 154 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: and whose side of the Democrats on the marauding barbarians. 155 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: I was surprised. My favorite thing I saw from Andy know, 156 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: who's out there covering all this on the on the 157 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: left coast, the west coast, there's this group that calls them, 158 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: call themselves the Moms, and they're all wearing these yellow 159 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: T shirts and they're making this big deal about how 160 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: you know, we're moms, that we're here to protect the protesters. 161 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: And Andy knows them, he's familiar with them. He says 162 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: a lot of them he recognizes from other anti protests 163 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: where they were wearing the all black in there, and 164 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: now they've done this all, Oh no, we're moms. He 165 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: says that most of them aren't moms, aren't mothers, and 166 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: many of them don't even identify as female. Seriously, but 167 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: they're wearing yellow we are Mom's t shirts. That's how 168 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: honest this movement is. Oh yeah, they're moms. They're not mothers, 169 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: and they don't even think they're female, but their mom's 170 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: all right, that's what Andy's telling us. He's doing great work, 171 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: he really is. But what does Biden have to say 172 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: about this? In a normal political environment, the Democrats would 173 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: put forward some statement like we do not support this 174 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: destruction and violence. We call for this to end immediately. 175 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: This is not who we are. But we also decry 176 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: the heavy handed tactics of trum blah blah blah blah blah. Right, 177 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: that's what in a normal world where people were still saying, 178 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: that's what we said, No, no, no, instead the problem, 179 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: just as the lib leftists during the War on Terror 180 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: always found any response to al Qaida was the cause 181 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: of al Qaida. That was their mentality and that was 182 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: their their primary talking point. Right, it's the fighting against 183 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: terrorsm that creation. You go back, you remember this, that 184 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: was across the board. The Democrats were, hey, don't be 185 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: too mean to don't do too much against Alkaida. You're 186 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: causing more terrorists by killing members of al Qaida, that's 187 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: what they would say. Well, now here, in a domestic 188 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: political context, enforcing the law is causing lawlessness. That's what 189 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: they're constantly saying. Now they're they're just they they pretend 190 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: that none of this other stuff is even happening. Here, 191 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: here's Biden. We have a president who's determined to sow 192 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: chaos and division, to make matters worse instead of better. 193 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: We all remember the appalling scenes in front of the 194 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: White House when peaceful protesters were gassed to make way 195 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: for a Trump photoop. Now Homeland security agents with a 196 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: without a clearly defined mandate or authority, arranging far from 197 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: federal property, stripped of badges and insignia, and identifying markings 198 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: to detain people. They are brutally attacking peaceful protesters, including 199 00:12:54,800 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: a US Navy veteran. It's just it's just stunning, isn't it. 200 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: It's stunning. Oh no, it goes on. Of course, the 201 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: US government has the right and duty to protect federal property. 202 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: The Obama Biden administration protected federal property across the country 203 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 1: without resorting to these egregious tactics. I'm without trying to 204 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: stoke the fires of division in this country. We need 205 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: a president who brings us together. Blah blah blah. What 206 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: a bunch of what a bunch of just malarkey. The 207 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: borrow of Biden is m a big pilum a lark 208 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: I'm actually not I like that word. I'm not giving 209 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: that word to Biden. He's a pilum a larky. Yeah. 210 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: During the Obama administration, whole neighborhoods were burned down. Yeah, 211 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: they did a great job. The BLM movement started during 212 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: the Obama administration, so Let's not pretend that they had 213 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: some good handle on things right. There wasn't some great 214 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: wave of racial healing that occurred under the eight years 215 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: of the Obama administration. In fact, what we saw was 216 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: a focus from the President and his entire White House 217 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: on individual cases like the George Zimmerman case, like with 218 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: treyvon Martin and Mike Brown in ferguson making things worse 219 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: by feeding into false narratives that their base wants to 220 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: hear cops of the bad guys. Cops are killing on 221 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: armed black men all the time, and this is a 222 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: systemic issue. Biden is because he has to be in 223 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 1: order to get his base to turn out for him. 224 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: The Democrat base is now clearly on the side of 225 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: the angry, lawless, vicious mob. Not all Democrats are a 226 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: part of that mob, but they are all rooting for 227 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: the angry, vicious, attacking mob on the streets of cities 228 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: across the country. I hope those independence and swing voters 229 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: that are we're now going to start counting this election's 230 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: distance from today in weeks, not months. I think it's 231 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: what six weeks or so before the first vote start 232 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: being cast. It's not far away. I hope that enough 233 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: Americans are watching this being the lawlessness, the disorder, the disarray, 234 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: and the abject cowardice and cynical opportunism of the Democrat Party. 235 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: That's who they are, That's what they are. They should 236 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: be held to account because they're disgrace, folks, They're a disgrace. 237 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: You're in the Freedom This is the Buck Sex and 238 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 1: Show podcast. You know. I didn't endorse Donald Trump, and 239 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: in fact didn't vote for him for president, as you know, 240 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: and I was always concerned that may. I was concerned, 241 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: but was hopeful that perhaps he could get to the 242 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: point where he could unite the country. I've now become convinced, 243 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: absent a Damascus Road experience, I become convinced that he's 244 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: not capable of this. He is not capable of being 245 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: a unifier. In fact, I become convinced that he doesn't 246 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: know how to accept personal responsible and always find somebody 247 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: else to blame. That's kasick if you're wondering who's a loser, 248 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: and and it's also a surly fellow. I do not 249 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: like him from the times I have interviewed him. I'm 250 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: not like I usually give people a pretty wide berth 251 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: of you know, I know they've had a long day 252 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: sometimes whatever, but it's just a he's a jerk and 253 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: and he's he's bitter because you think, yeah, you know, 254 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: I'm just a guy. You know, my dad was a maleman, 255 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna run the country now because you know, 256 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: I just sort of do the whole fake folks you thing, 257 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: and I tell the Libs what they want to hear, 258 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: so they don't hate me as much as they hate 259 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: other Republicans. And yeah, uh yeah, that's right. The Trump 260 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: is not unifying the country, isn't it fascinating? Democrats are 261 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: both arsonist and firefighter in their own formulation. Here. They 262 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: create all the disunity, right they they they create this, 263 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: and then they turn around and say, look at all 264 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: the disunity, Why can't Trump make us more unified? We 265 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: will do a better job. We will do a better job. 266 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: Liz Cheney, who is getting a lot of heat right 267 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: now from some of my conservative brothers and sisters because 268 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: she was spreading around the Russia bounty Taliban bounty story, 269 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: which was just bull as I told you, right, didn't 270 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: the Buckser tell you that this is nonsense. They're killing 271 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: as many Americans as they can for their own purposes 272 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:28,719 Speaker 1: without a bounty. Anyway, Chenney understands at least where Biden 273 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,959 Speaker 1: is during all this trying to hide from accountability. Play nineteen. 274 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: We would see efforts and unfortunately, we would probably see 275 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 1: success at defunding the police, the elimination of Second Amendment rights. 276 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: We'd see our national defense cut. We'd see a situation 277 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: in which the production of fossil fuels would be significantly curtailed, 278 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: moving towards a Green New Deal. We'd see probably the 279 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: end of the filibuster in the Senate. We'd see efforts 280 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: to make DC a state. We'd see efforts to expand 281 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: the size of the Supreme Court and pack it with 282 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: liberal justices. There's absolutely no question what's at stake in 283 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: this election and how much worse off this nation would 284 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: be under a Biden, Schumer Pelosi regime. Now, it's also 285 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: important to remember that Vice President Biden, as we all know, 286 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: is in his basement. Vice President Biden is in his 287 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: basement partly because he's concerned about his ability to make 288 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 1: it through an interview, but also because he doesn't want 289 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: to have to talk about his socialist agenda. They're hiding, 290 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: They're hiding Biden in the basement, not from the virus 291 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: so much as they are from the Democrats socialism. It's true. 292 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The bus Essen Show podcasts. Remember 293 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever 294 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. What's it going to take for 295 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: Democrats to admit that their approach, that their policies aren't working. 296 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: People are dying from them, and all they have to 297 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: do is change. Of course, they don't even have to 298 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,479 Speaker 1: admit they were wrong in some of these cities. They 299 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: don't have to say turns out that coddling criminals and 300 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: downplaying the role of deterurating families in high crime communities, 301 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: and the lack of emphasis on respect for authority and 302 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: on educational they don't have to talk about all that. 303 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: They could at least just say we're going to let 304 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 1: police and cops do the jobs they need to do 305 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 1: to keep more people safe. And I'm not saying that 306 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: the cops can They're not superheroes. They can't do everything, 307 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: but they could certainly do more than they are in 308 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: some of these cities if the political authorities in charge 309 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: Democrats let them. But it is worth asking, what's it 310 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: going to take for them to finally relent, and in 311 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: an election year like we're in right now, as you 312 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: can understand it, the answer is nothing. There's there's no 313 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: level of violence, of anarchy of lawlessness in major US 314 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: cities that would bring them to make any change from 315 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: the approved DNC talking points. And that's why I see 316 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: a story like this and I mean it's a it's 317 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: a gut punch. This is completely insane, you know. I 318 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: remember I spent years of my life working on a 319 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: CIA desks and two war zones and going to those 320 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: war zones and covering covering it's not like a journalist, 321 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: but you know, dealing with the issues of counterinsurgency and 322 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: terrorism in those countries. And that's that's what you think 323 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: of when you hear I mean, a country that is 324 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:46,479 Speaker 1: in a failed state status is what you think of 325 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: when you hear about something like this. This is from 326 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: ABC News, which really is as liberal at CNN. Now. 327 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: I've I've been seeing a lot of ABC's coverage and 328 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: the way that they these big networks ABC, NBCCBS, the 329 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: way that they present information news is every bit as 330 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: democrat aligned as anything you'd see at CNN and MSNBC, 331 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: But I digress. Okay, here's what ABC writes. At least 332 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: fifteen people. It was initially they said fourteen. Now it's 333 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: at least fifteen people were shot outside a Chicago funeral 334 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: home in a drive by shootout during a ceremony for 335 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: a man who was killed in an earlier drive by shooting. 336 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: According to the Chicago Police Department, the city's mayor and 337 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: police officials are urging the public to come forward with 338 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: that information to help end the cycle of violence. An 339 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: unknown number of people inside a vehicle at a crowd 340 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: attending a funeral on West seventy ninth Street in Chicago. 341 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: The individuals on the street exchanged gunfire with the people 342 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: in the vehicle as people were coming out of the 343 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: funeral home. The shots rang out like they were literally 344 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: raining on them. Police said fifteen people, ten women and 345 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: five men, whose ages range from twenty one to sixty five, 346 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: were taken to five different hospitals with gunshot wounds. Three 347 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: women and three men were listed in serious condition. There 348 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: were sixty shell casings found at the scene. This is 349 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: out of a war zone. Fifteen people shot in one incident, 350 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 1: fifteen at a funeral for heaven's sake, at a funeral 351 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: they kill a guy, and then they find out when 352 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: the funeral's gonna happen for that guy, and then they 353 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 1: show up to kill all the people going to the funeral. 354 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 1: How much more sick and evil can you be? But 355 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: you know what's gonna fix this. You know what's gonna 356 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 1: fix this. Some protests over the killing of George Floyd. 357 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: That's gonna fix this. The defunding of police. That's gonna 358 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: fix this. The end of the carceral state, that's going 359 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: to fix it. This is insane. We all know it. 360 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: Democrats wholesale believe it. They believe it because they need, 361 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: they desperately need some moral superiority to cling to in 362 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: the current national political debate. Oh, we care so much. 363 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: We the Democrat party, care so much about oppressed minorities. 364 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: We care so much about the history the legacy of 365 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: slavery and racism in this country. The other side doesn't. 366 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: That's a lie. The other side, Republicans, Conservatives. I'd say, 367 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: people who don't suffer from extreme trumped arrangement syndrome, see 368 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: what's happening in this country and say, if we're really 369 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,719 Speaker 1: concerned with saving lives. We need to get a handle 370 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: on what's going on in these cities where the violence 371 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: keeps occurring. People die, families are ruined. Fifteen people shot, 372 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: that's a lot of people. I mean a giant gun 373 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: battle at a funeral. If if this was a news 374 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: story about something that had happened outside of Jalellabad with 375 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: the Taliban involved, people would say, whoa, it's not going 376 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 1: our whole pacification of Afghanistan. It's not going very well. 377 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: This is in Chicago, the third largest US city. New 378 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: York has spiking violence right now. Now. Look, New York 379 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: is starting at a very it was handed over to 380 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 1: the Moron de Blasio at a very low level. But 381 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: New York City, which is you know, the center of 382 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: now the defund the police movement for many Democrats. Shootings 383 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: are up two one hundred and fifty two hundred and 384 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: fifty three percent this year the first Now we're on 385 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: seven months of this year, so we're past the halfway 386 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: point this year last year. Direct comparison, arrests meanwhile are 387 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: down sixty two percent. Oh hold on a second, much 388 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: more crime, far fewer arrest is. Can anyone see a 389 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 1: correlation here? Minor crime summons is down eighty six percent, 390 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 1: traffic tickets down seventy six percent. Criminals know they can 391 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: get away with anything. That's the quote from the New 392 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: York Daily News. People are it's just a free for all. Now. 393 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: You know why, because if a cop comes up to 394 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: you and says, hey, well, you know what are you doing? Stop? 395 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: Stop stealing that pair of sneakers from that store you 396 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: just ran into, you know what the bad guy has 397 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 1: to do now in order to get away, run and 398 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: you know what happens if the cop is able to 399 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 1: catch him, fight, elbow the cop kick him. That cop 400 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: can't pull his weapon. Cop probably can't even pull his 401 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: less than lethal can't pull a taser or a baton. 402 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: So it's it's a foot race. And then it's a 403 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: wrestling match. And if for some reason the cop is 404 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: able to win the wrestling match, which won't always be 405 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: able to do, they'll be released. Because we have no 406 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: no bail anymore in New York. It will be released, 407 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, within an hour back out on the street. Oh, 408 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: the court's going to put out a summons for them 409 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: to show up at the at the courthouse. Oh, I'm 410 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: sure they're terrified about what's going to happen there. Who's 411 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 1: going to go and arrest them for the low level 412 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: offense and for not showing up the court? Nobody, Nobody 413 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 1: remember that Chesterton quote. I know a great society like ours, 414 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: it implodes because it forgets the most obvious, the most 415 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: important truth. And we're seeing that happen right now. And 416 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: you understand the motivation for this, the lies that the 417 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: Democrats have told, The lies they've told because it allows 418 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: them to have a feeling of moral superiority to the 419 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,479 Speaker 1: other side. And then beyond that, the incentive that they 420 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: have in misery. The Democrats are incentivized to create chaos 421 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,959 Speaker 1: and miss despair in this country. And as we know it, 422 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: it's all as sue. As soon as Joe Biden comes 423 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: into office, there'll be new stories about you know, the 424 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: economic recovery really is under way. You know, maybe we 425 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: really need to learn to live with this virus and 426 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: stop cowering and fear. You know, maybe we're all going 427 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: to be okay. Actually, after Biden wins, I mean I 428 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: could set the clock to it right now. It couldn't 429 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: be any now. I'm not saying Biden's gonna win, but 430 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: that's the point here, that's the purpose. You think that 431 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: these Democrats care about what they're doing to the country 432 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: in the interim, about the people who will suffer. The 433 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: business is destroyed, the livelihood's ruined, the people who will die, 434 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: They do not care. They do not care because they 435 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: also reject any responsibility for it. Somehow, they reject reason 436 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: and accountability because that gives them political advantage. They don't 437 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: have to debate, and they don't have to be held 438 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: responsible for anything. They just get to run around and 439 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: screaming and saying it's all Trump's fault, It's all Trump's fault, 440 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: or my favorite, say that whatever the problem is is 441 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: the result of the coronavirus, and then the coronavirus is 442 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: Trump's fault, right, it's the transitive property of coronavirus. Trump 443 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: blaming whatever the issue is in your city. Oh, it's COVID, 444 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: that's the problem, and Trump is the reason why COVID 445 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: so bad. So it's Trump. Oh, isn't that a Isn't 446 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: that quite a neat trick they've pulled off. Here is 447 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 1: Dublasio saying exactly that the problem here is and this 448 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: is the mayor of New York, the guy who thought 449 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: he was going to be the Democrat nominee. He's a 450 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: total lunatic. And here's what he says about why there's spiking. 451 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: I told you the numbers. He can't hide from it anymore. 452 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: New York is in bad shape right now. And here's 453 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: what he's saying, Play clip seven. We have to we 454 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: have to make our streets safe as the number one 455 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: responsibility to anyone in executive office. And you're right. In 456 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: New York City, we've been the safest big city in 457 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: America for years. We've had a very tough few months, 458 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: no doubt, and it is directly related to the coronavirus, 459 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: the dislocation it's caused in our society, the fact that 460 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: our court system is not functioning yet, so many factors 461 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: that have been absolutely aberrant for just the last four 462 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: or five months. But we will beat it back because 463 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: we've done that for a quarter century in this city. 464 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: And Joe, the key point is we will do it. Yeah, 465 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: let's just use the most boiler plate bs, politician phrases, 466 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: and let's pretend like this didn't all happen. Because de 467 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: Blasios are moron who has turned his back on the NYPD. 468 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: New York is in bad shape, Chicago is in bad shape, Seattle, Portland, Atlanta. 469 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: How many cities have to effectively lose control or we 470 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: lose control of them. Law enforcement, the state no longer 471 00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: really able to protect people and defend them. Remember, for 472 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: every shooting that happens, for every store that's burned down, 473 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: every burglary that happened. At burglary that happens, the neighborhood, 474 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: the people around that feel less safe. That's an intrusion 475 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: on the public psyche. Right When these bad things happen, 476 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: when there's a surge in them, it affects everybody who 477 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: lives in that area. Now they all have to be worried. 478 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: I have to walk female relatives at nights across Midtown 479 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: Manhattan for safety reasons that I haven't had to do 480 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: that in a very long and it's completely understandable, it's 481 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: completely legitimate that that would be a move that I 482 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: would make, right that that's now an expectation that I have. 483 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 1: You know, I will not allow females that I'm related to. 484 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: You will not allow my girlfriend. I will not allow 485 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: them to go through certain areas at night by themselves 486 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: because oh, you might say, well, are they really you know, 487 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: it's something really horrible gonna happen. They're gonna be harassed. 488 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: They're going to have vagrance on the street come up 489 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: to them, say disgusting things to them, demand money from them, 490 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: threatened to grab them. That happens all the time here now, 491 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: So it's top to bottom, folks. It's we read about 492 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: the murders. We hear about the destabilization from the worst 493 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: with the worst crimes, but it filters through all of society. 494 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: This is their openings. Here's what you have to remember. 495 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: They were promising for years to their base, the Democrat promise. 496 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: The central thesis in the Trump era was that Donald 497 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: Trump was a moron who would crash the economy and 498 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: lead us into war, and we would we would all 499 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: be miserable from that, right, and it would be so 500 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: clear he was. It was ridiculous that he had won 501 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: this election against how Wow Clinton. Ridiculous, right, that was 502 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: the central thesis. Well, they were wrong. The economy was booming. 503 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: He did not lead us into wars. He actually had 504 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: a very effective foreign policy. He was right on China 505 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: didn't build the wall, which I'm pretty annoyed about, folks, 506 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: But we'll talk about that another day. Don't tell me, 507 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: Oh he's building it. Buck. Not enough, not enough wall, Well, 508 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: we're just you know, I live in reality, folks. Not 509 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: enough wall, and you know I'm on the president's team. 510 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: Not enough wall and way too much criminal justice reform. 511 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: But other than that, it was a lot of good things. 512 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: But he was so much more successful in those first 513 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: three years than they anticipated, and it just was no 514 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: longer tenable. Even the lunatic libs who were trying to 515 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: they were trying to remember say it was the Obama economy. 516 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: That was the whole story. It was the Obama economy. 517 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: They were just desperate for something because the results were 518 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: so positive. And you and I, people that supported Trump, 519 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,239 Speaker 1: were in a position where we were saying, you know, 520 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: look look at the results, look at the scoreboard. And 521 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: then we turn around and say, Trump got it done. 522 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: And so what do they do? They make us all miserable. 523 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: That's their plan. You're in the Freedom Hud. This is 524 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. You know what we really 525 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: need right now? We need the legal wisdom and political 526 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: insight of Whoopie Goldberg. Yeah, let's get some of that 527 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: during this crisis. Play thirteen. We sort of felt it 528 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: a little bit when we've seen other sort of riots 529 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: breakout and we've seen them bust out troops, but this 530 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: is different. This feels different. This feels like a planned 531 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: attack against the American people, and it's very specific and 532 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: it's very targeted. The planned attack. I want to be 533 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: very clear, the planned attack. And one of my favorite 534 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 1: things and Tucker, like, I don't want to want to 535 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: be like doing two of my Joe. Tucker has been 536 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: amazing on his show lately because you know, but he 537 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: has his last ninety days or so, has just been 538 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: in fago put. One of my favorite things he said 539 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: is at Whoopy Goldberg not funny. I don't know why 540 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: we've all I've never heard of say anything funny in 541 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: my life, but we're all told, ah, she's so funny. 542 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: Now she's supposed to be insightful. But the attack that 543 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: she's talking about is federal law enforcement enforcing the law. 544 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: That's not the mobs of lunatics burning things down, attacking, 545 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: attacking strangers, attacking businesses and police, you know, looting Starbucks, 546 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: setting fire to buildings, breaking into drug stores. That's not 547 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: the attack. The attack are the law enforcement officers saying hey, 548 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 1: stop doing that illegal thing. These people are nuts, They're 549 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: absolutely nuts. And I just want to note notice that 550 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,280 Speaker 1: they're talking now about fascism and the Stazi that Trump 551 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: is deploying. And you had that member of cong I 552 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,760 Speaker 1: think it was Congresswoman Wilson saying that maybe these federal 553 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: agents are the ones that are gonna help Trump stay 554 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,760 Speaker 1: even if he loses. They're saying all this crazy stuff. 555 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: Meanwhile Democrat governors and mayors are like, stay home, shut 556 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: down your business, can't see your friends, can't see your 557 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: family until we say so. And they don't talk about 558 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: tyranny there with the whole COVID nonsense that they're pulling 559 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: right now. Oh, we're gonna move all the metrics. We're 560 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: gonna move all the numbers so that it's it's actually 561 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: just there, say so when we get our lives back. 562 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: It's not based on anything else. That's what Democrats are doing. 563 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: No tyranny there. Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson 564 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: Show podcasts.

We all 566 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: know the case of the mccloskey's in Saint Louis. It 567 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 1: turned into a major national news story. Husband and wife, 568 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: the mccloskey's, outside of their property in Saint Louis, with 569 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 1: lawfully owned firearms, telling the mob, or just showing the 570 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: mob that they were willing to defend themselves even after 571 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: threats against their lives and their property. Well, now we 572 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: have the prosecutor in Saint Louis bringing a felony charge, 573 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: which clearly is sending a message to other people who 574 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: might defend their property all across the country defend themselves. 575 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: But she's not the only one who gets to say 576 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: in this. We're very pleased to be joined now by 577 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: the Missouri Attorney General from the state of Missouri, Attorney 578 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 1: General Eric Schmidt. Mister Schmidt, thank you so much. We 579 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: appreciate you calling in great to be with you so 580 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: you can just tell us where does the case stand 581 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: right now? Charges have been brought, walk us through what 582 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: the charges really are, what the allegation is, and what 583 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: the mccloskey's face. Sure so. Earlier this week, local prosecutor 584 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: Kim Gardner, who has jurisdiction over state charges essentially in 585 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 1: that jurisdiction in the city of Saint Louis, filed criminal 586 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: charges against bull from mccluskys, and essentially the charges are 587 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: an unlawful use of a weapon, which means they're brandishing 588 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: a you know, a deadly weapon in a threatening manner. 589 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: The problem Kim Gardner has with those charges is that 590 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 1: the case should have never been brought because of Missouri's 591 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 1: castle doctrine. And just to kind of take a step 592 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 1: back and you look at Missouri law. First of all, 593 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: the fundamental right of self defense is well established. It 594 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: really predates our constitution. It's a natural right. The founders 595 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: knew that, which is why the Second Amendment is in 596 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 1: the Bill of Rights in Missouri in our first constitution 597 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: eighteen twenty that was incorporated in and every other constitution 598 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: we've had, and as recently as twenty fourteen, Missouri voters 599 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly expanded those Second Amendment rights. And the creature of 600 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,720 Speaker 1: statute is issuing here is the castle doctrine, and Missouri 601 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: has perhaps the most expansive castle doctrine in the country. 602 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: It means that you know, if you're being threatened, as mccluskeys, 603 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: you know, say they were here, you have a right 604 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: to not only defend your life and anyone else's life, 605 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 1: your family members, lives, but also not just your home, 606 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 1: your castle, but your property. And so given those facts, 607 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 1: the statutes are very clear that it's not even an 608 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 1: affirmative defense to the unlawful use of a weapon charge. 609 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: It means it's not a crime at all if you're 610 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 1: if you're you know, fall under the castle doctrine, which 611 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: is clear here. So look, this is nothing more than 612 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 1: a political prosecution. And in a time where you have 613 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,360 Speaker 1: you know, calls to to fund the police and rising 614 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 1: violent crime rates across the country, including in Saint Louis, 615 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: which recorded has well over one hundred and thirty murders 616 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 1: already this year, seventy five percent increase this July versus 617 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: last July. This local prosecutor has released inmates charged with 618 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: violent crimes, using COVID as an excuse for people who 619 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 1: were you know, violent, charged with violent crimes. To target 620 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 1: law abiding citizens for exercising their fundamental right of self 621 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: defense is outrageous, which is why I felt like I 622 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: needed to stand up do something. We've entered the case 623 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: and asked for the court to dismiss the charge. Right, 624 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 1: let's let's let's jump into that part of this now. 625 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: We're speaking to the Attorney General for the State of Missouri, 626 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 1: Eric Schmidt, on about this McCloskey case where the local 627 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 1: attorney for Saint Louis has brought a charge here, a 628 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:15,760 Speaker 1: felony charge of unlawful brandishing of weapons. Okay, you are 629 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 1: weighing in on this as the attorney general for the state. 630 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: What is your position, what are the mechanisms at your disposal, 631 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: and what's happening right now? Sure, so the mccoskeys have 632 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: their own counsel, and you know they'll be defending the mccoskeys. 633 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:30,800 Speaker 1: But I'm coming in as the attorney general on behalf 634 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: of all Missourians because I'm constitutionally charged not only protecting 635 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,439 Speaker 1: the constitution, but when there's an issue that affects all 636 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: Missourians like this, would I have a right to come 637 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: into a case. And what we're alleging here is that 638 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 1: if you have a situation where law abiding citizens are 639 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: exercising a fundamental right, the right to self defense, and 640 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 1: they're being criminally prosecuted for that. If you think about that, 641 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: the government wants to come in and put you in 642 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 1: jail for four years up to four years if you're 643 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 1: exercising that right, that could have a chilling effect on 644 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: these constitutionally protected right of self defense that all Missourians enjoy. 645 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: So the specter of this case, you know, in its 646 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: tendency at any point in time, sends a very clear 647 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 1: message to law abiding citizens that you exercise that right 648 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 1: of self defense at your own peril. And if this 649 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: prosecutor wants to come in and put you in jail, 650 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: that's what she's going to do. And so you know, 651 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 1: that's why we're coming in to assert that that you 652 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: can't move forward the prosecution like this that has no 653 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,360 Speaker 1: basis in law. It's a political prosecution. It could have 654 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: a chilling effect on others exercising their constitutional rights as well. Now, 655 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 1: why do you think that the prosecutor Gardner, and we 656 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: would call it a district attorney here, she's the states 657 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: state's attorney for Saint Louis, right, So why why would 658 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,720 Speaker 1: she offer in that initial statement, why bring a felony charge? 659 00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: But even saying the statement, we're open to deferred prosecute 660 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: for this as well, is this just is this a 661 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: prosecutor's gambitt to essentially just get an admission of wrongdoing, 662 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 1: show what side she's on, and then not actually bring 663 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 1: this to trial. Why do that? I mean, that seems 664 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 1: a little bit that that seemed to be quite a 665 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: noteworthy addition to her initial statement. It's a telling common, 666 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,240 Speaker 1: isn't it. It sort of indicates that maybe she doesn't 667 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,439 Speaker 1: believe this is even a crime in the first place, 668 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: which it's not. I mean, the statutes in Missouri are 669 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:30,800 Speaker 1: very clear that the unlawful use of a weapon charge 670 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 1: isn't a crime if you're you know, fall under the 671 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: castle doctor, if you're defending yourself, as the mcclows keys 672 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: were in this case. So it has no basis. It's, 673 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: you know, a purely a political prosecution. She has a 674 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 1: primary in two weeks for her seat, which also enters 675 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: sort of the equation here. And while literally, you know, 676 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 1: dozens and dozens and dozens of homicides go uncharged in 677 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: Saint Louis, this case got to the top of the staff. 678 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: Um you know is again it's it's just it reeks 679 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: of politics. And look, the reality is people who run 680 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: for office make statements all the time. The difference here 681 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:16,280 Speaker 1: is this is a prosecutor that's bringing criminal charges against 682 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: law abiding citizens, potentially putting them in jail. She said, 683 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 1: what she said, but they comes with a four year 684 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 1: prison signs potentially, Um, that's a very very dangerous road 685 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: to go down. Is it possible, if we're speaking to 686 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 1: Eric Schmidt, who is the attorney general for the state 687 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 1: of Missouri, everyone, is it possible if uh, if this 688 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 1: goes forward and they and the mccloskey's take that they're 689 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: lawyers and they're represented by lawyers, if they take this 690 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: to trial and we're to lose, the governor could pardon them, 691 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: correct under Missouri law. Correct, Although the point has been 692 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 1: made recently that you know, the governor is up for election, 693 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: um this fall, um, you know, and so look, none 694 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: of these things are certain, which is why we felt 695 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: and I'm glad the governor is you know certain. That's 696 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 1: Governor Mike Parson, right, he is a Republican, but he's 697 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 1: upper reelection, as he said, correct, And he's made that statement, 698 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,839 Speaker 1: and I think it's it's good that he's weighed in here. 699 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 1: But the truth is, my job is to try to 700 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: nip this thing in the butt because as this thing 701 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 1: moves forward, as we allegend our brief, the specter or 702 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: the the idea that this in a very highly publicized 703 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 1: case that someone exercising their fundamental right of self defense 704 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 1: can be prosecuted for. That has a chilling effect on others, 705 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,840 Speaker 1: and that's a legitimate state interest for us to be 706 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: in the case. What do you think needs to be done? 707 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 1: I want to pivot a little bit too, to another 708 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: component of law enforcement in your state. Saint Louis really 709 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: got on the national radar as when it comes to 710 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: crime and valent crime because of the Mike Brown Mike 711 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 1: Brown incident which led to the Black Lives Matter movement, 712 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: and we know there was a lot of violence and 713 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: rioting and neighborhoods. I believe it was East Saint Louis. 714 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 1: What do you think, I mean, if you're continuing to 715 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: work with state law enforcement authorities, what could be done 716 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 1: to bring that murder rate down in Saint Louis? And 717 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 1: are you open to working more closely with federal law 718 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: enforcement agencies as President Trump has been pushing for in 719 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: recent weeks. It's a great question, and I think the 720 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: truth of the matter is criminals have been emboldened for 721 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: a variety of reasons. You know, if you want to 722 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: take it from a prosecutor's perspective or local prosecutor if 723 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 1: they don't believe there any consequences to their actions. I mean, 724 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: the city of Saint Louis, there's over three hundred and 725 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: sixty carjackings every year. That's you know, one a day 726 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 1: a carjacking where someone's being terrorized and maybe killed in 727 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: the process, and a grandfather who's lived in a neighborhood 728 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: his whole life, you know, having to go through that. 729 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,359 Speaker 1: You've got children being killed, mothers and father's loss. It's 730 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 1: reached epidemic like levels. And if a prosecutor doesn't show 731 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 1: willingness to take on violent crime of these series, it's 732 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: going to embolden criminals. And that's sort of what we're 733 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 1: seeing from perspective as Attorney General. We actually in Kansas City, 734 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: Operation Legend is moving forward. The governor had spoken to 735 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 1: the President about this and the Attorney General, William barr Is, 736 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 1: authorized federal law enforcement officers to work on violent crime 737 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 1: in the Kansas City or Kansas City has over one 738 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: hundred murders this year. It's on pace for a record 739 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: number this year. So you're seeing this across the country. 740 00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 1: In Missouri is you know, no different. So I think 741 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,320 Speaker 1: at that level of cooperation is important for my perspective 742 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 1: as AG. Very early on in my term, I reached 743 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 1: out to the US attorney in both the Saint Luis 744 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: area in Kansas City are and we've done something very 745 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 1: unique here. We've we have unprecedented level of cooperation. We 746 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 1: have lawyer because we don't local prosecutors don't really ask 747 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: us to help in prosecuting violent crime. I guess because 748 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 1: we have a bit of a different worldview, we work 749 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: with those US attorneys. So I have lawyers from my 750 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 1: office who've been cross deputized as assistant US attorneys so 751 00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: they can help prosecute violent crime in federal court with 752 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 1: a where the penalties are often stiffer. And we've got 753 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 1: some cooperation with those US attorneys. So you know, we've 754 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,840 Speaker 1: had well over a couple hundred of charges and indictments 755 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 1: from that. I can I ask you about that because 756 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,280 Speaker 1: I've been trying to and we're speaking to uh sorry, 757 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 1: mister Attorney General of Missouri. I'm getting so much worthwhile 758 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 1: information here that I'm bouncing around a little bit. But 759 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 1: I've been telling folks from when I worked at the 760 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 1: NYPD Intelligence Division on loan from the CIA, which is 761 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,799 Speaker 1: a federal intelligence organization everybody knows. But when I was 762 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 1: at the NYPD on loan from the CIA and what 763 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:34,800 Speaker 1: was called a hide a high intensity drug trafficking area 764 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: that was set up with d EA, FBI, Customs, and 765 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: Border you name. We had every we had US marshals, 766 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: everybody co located and working together on different issues. So 767 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: when I hear all this pushback on exactly what you're 768 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,760 Speaker 1: you're talking about, they say, well, the federal government doesn't 769 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: have a role in these kinds of crimes. Just just 770 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 1: give people a sense of when you're when you have 771 00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 1: cross deputized people from your state state Attorney's General office 772 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 1: with these other federal agencies, what are the kind of 773 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: crimes that come under their purview? Because I think people think, oh, 774 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,480 Speaker 1: federal crime, it must be you know, major drug trafficking. Terrorism. 775 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 1: There's a lot more than that, isn't There? There are? 776 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I will tell you a lot of the 777 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,959 Speaker 1: because you're you're, you know, exactly on the point here. 778 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 1: Jurisdiction things are different, and the state you know, is 779 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 1: generally prosecuting homicides and things like that, but um, you know, 780 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: the FEDS can go after carjackings, and so we work 781 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: on those kinds of cases. We also have, um I'll 782 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 1: tell you the lion's share of felon in possession of firearms. 783 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 1: So you get people who are causing a lot of 784 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,319 Speaker 1: problems in neighborhoods, you get them off the streets, and 785 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: so that's been a lion's share of the prosecutions and 786 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 1: so m you know, we felt like it was a 787 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 1: an important partnership to have that this is an all 788 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: hands on deck moment. That these sort of um turf 789 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: battles that maybe get fought o their places, there's no 790 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,760 Speaker 1: room for that right now. I mean, you've got spiking, 791 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,040 Speaker 1: violent crime, racing. You look and you see what's happening 792 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 1: on the news every night, just this lawlessness. It's not 793 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:08,280 Speaker 1: People have a have a right to be safe, and 794 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: people are being terrorized in their communities and it's wrong. 795 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 1: So I think we all need to kind of put 796 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 1: all those things aside and work together. So on one hand, 797 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 1: you know, we're working as closely as we possibly can. 798 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: I think Missouri's partnership with you at the US Attorney's 799 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:24,880 Speaker 1: Office and all those federal agencies you mentioned, the FBI, DA, 800 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 1: US Marshals, that's a great level of cooperation. What we're 801 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 1: not seeing is these local prosecutors sometimes, like Ken Gardner, 802 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,360 Speaker 1: they're not interested in that. They have their own agenda, 803 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: they're not interested in prosecuting violent crime, and so we 804 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,280 Speaker 1: kind of have to work around that. Eric Schmidt, Attorney 805 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,280 Speaker 1: General of Missouri, Sir, thank you so much for joining 806 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 1: us and sharing your expertise, and good luck to you. 807 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,400 Speaker 1: Thank you. Buck going to be with him. You're in 808 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 1: the freedom of mind. This is the Buck Sex and 809 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: Show podcast. Their permanent shutdown was really never an option 810 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,400 Speaker 1: in terms of what we're doing right now. This would 811 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: be completely unsustainable, produce stabilitating economic fallback, and lead to 812 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: catastrophic public health consequences. There are consequences to shutdowns, and 813 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 1: we've saved potentially millions of lives by doing the initial shutdown. 814 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 1: But now we're very aware of this disease. We understand 815 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,839 Speaker 1: the disease to a large extent. Nobody's going to maybe 816 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 1: ever fully understand it. But we'll end up with a cure, 817 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 1: We'll end up with therapeutics, we'll end up with a 818 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 1: vaccine very soon. All three. We're instead asking Americans to 819 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 1: use masks, socially distanced and employ vigorous hygiene wash your 820 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 1: hands every chance you get well sheltering high risk populations. 821 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: We are imploring young Americans to avoid packed bars and 822 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,879 Speaker 1: other crowded indoor gatherings. Be safe. The President gave a 823 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: COVID press conference. Right he's back to doing these briefings. 824 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 1: I don't know how long he's going to continue. I'm 825 00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:02,800 Speaker 1: very happy that he did, because he established some really 826 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 1: important context for all the discussions we're having about what 827 00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:07,800 Speaker 1: do we do now? Where are we now? Now? I 828 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 1: just checked the CDC website. Here we are. It's been 829 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,319 Speaker 1: almost three weeks since I last talked you about this, 830 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 1: and I said, I'm just I said, I told you 831 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: that if it turned out that there was a huge 832 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 1: spike in debts similar to what we saw in the 833 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 1: March April time frame, I would come on the show 834 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:26,040 Speaker 1: when I would tell you, Okay, you know, I must 835 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 1: have missed something, or we got to revisit what's going 836 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 1: on here, or well we had In the last twenty 837 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:35,160 Speaker 1: four hours, the CDC recorded fifty seven thousand, seven hundred 838 00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 1: and seventy seven cases, four hundred and seventy three new deaths. Now, 839 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 1: that's a lot of people dying from as from a disease. 840 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 1: Right now, I get that, but it is nowhere near 841 00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: where we were. It's down seventy five percent. It's what 842 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: the President said, it is breafing down seventy five percent. 843 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 1: And we've had all of these states that are reopened 844 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 1: and you still have a death rate that's down seventy 845 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 1: five percent. Why is that right? We're being told, Oh, no, 846 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,280 Speaker 1: it's because we didn't All this bad stuff is happening 847 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,320 Speaker 1: because we didn't mask up enough. We didn't wear enough masks. 848 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:09,880 Speaker 1: Oh well, you know, it turns out the president before 849 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 1: I even get into the mask issue, the President's even 850 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 1: saying now, he's like, look, you know, if he can 851 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 1: write circumstances, wear a mask. Play clip two. We're asking 852 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 1: everybody that when you are not able to socially distanced, 853 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 1: wear a mask, get a mask. Whether you like to 854 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 1: mask or not, they have an impact. They'll have an effect, 855 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,440 Speaker 1: and we need everything we can get. Saying, whether you 856 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: like it or not, it'll have an impact. I'm not 857 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: as certain as the President is that it will have 858 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 1: an impact. But I also I have I've got masks. 859 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 1: I've got them by my front door. I've got rubber gloves, 860 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: I've got a mask. You know, I'm you know, I'm 861 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: trying to play by the rules here as much as 862 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: I can, and I really do it because in New 863 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 1: York everyone so and I don't do it outside, so 864 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: that's that's a non starter. I'm not wearing a mask outside. 865 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 1: Unless I'm trying to sneak into some of the BLM 866 00:51:58,239 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 1: protests and not have them punch me in the face, 867 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: then a mask is great. But I don't wear a 868 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 1: mask outside. I wear a mask going to go indoors 869 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,279 Speaker 1: to places or when I'm around other people who are 870 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: going to be freaked out, which in New York if 871 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:10,879 Speaker 1: you're don't wear a mask right now, in New York, 872 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 1: people look at you like you're walking around, you know, naked, 873 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:19,160 Speaker 1: smothered in grape jelly or something. I mean, they look 874 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: at you like, what the heck are you doing? It? 875 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,720 Speaker 1: Is you? You know? New York is like mask Central. 876 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 1: You got to wear a mask or else people, I 877 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:29,640 Speaker 1: don't do it outside. And to that, I just say, 878 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,359 Speaker 1: I'm within the guidance of President saying if you can't 879 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:35,560 Speaker 1: socially distance, so I socially distance. No one is going 880 00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 1: to get First of all, I don't have the virus. Okay. 881 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 1: Second of all, no one's going to get the virus 882 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:43,160 Speaker 1: from walking past me outside in open air. If they could, 883 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 1: we would have had an infection rate that was you know, 884 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,240 Speaker 1: ninety percent of the country. Anybody who had gone outside 885 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 1: would already have this thing in the last six months. Anybody, Okay, 886 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:55,919 Speaker 1: he can't get the virus that way. We know you're 887 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,879 Speaker 1: not going to get the virus that way. So now 888 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: we should look at how how do people get this virus. 889 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 1: And I've talked to you about intra familial and no 890 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 1: soacomeal fun word to use. People are gonn know socomeal, 891 00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 1: what is that? There's a coomeo means intra hospital transmission. 892 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: And remember that hospital infections, hospital acquired infections kill an 893 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 1: average of eighty to one hundred thousand people a year 894 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,719 Speaker 1: in the United States every year. That's before the pandemic. 895 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: So you want to be really careful in hospitals. You 896 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: have a lot of people with compromise immune systems, and 897 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,279 Speaker 1: obviously a concentration of a lot of diseases, which is 898 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,879 Speaker 1: why again when Trump went to Walter Reid wearing a mask, 899 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: I get it. You know, there are places where additional 900 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: precautions make sense. But Trump is not this, you know, 901 00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:42,480 Speaker 1: anti mask a zealot. The left pretendens he is. But 902 00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter where the truth is. We all know 903 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,920 Speaker 1: what the agenda is. Folks. Thanks for listening to the 904 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:52,200 Speaker 1: Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, 905 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Provide 906 00:53:57,200 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 1: an update on our response to the China virus and 907 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,920 Speaker 1: what my administration is doing to get the outbreak in 908 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 1: the Sun Belt under control. Seems largely in Sun Belt, 909 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: but could be spreading. All Trump has to do is 910 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:19,480 Speaker 1: remind people that this virus originated in China and that 911 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: the global spread of it is due in no small 912 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 1: part to the dishonesty, the cover up, the recklessness of 913 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party. All he has to do is 914 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 1: bring that up, which is just a fact, and liberals 915 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 1: lose their minds? Right, Why is that? Shouldn't we all 916 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 1: be united against the Chinese Communist Party is putting has 917 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 1: put a million wagers in concentration camps. The Chinese Communist 918 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: Party is engaged in the greatest theft of trade, secrets, 919 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:59,400 Speaker 1: intellectual property, and with that wealth, right, we are increasing 920 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 1: in information economy. Info is wealth that they are stealing 921 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 1: from the rest of the world, most notably from US constantly. 922 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 1: They run an oppressive totalitarian regime. They do not allow 923 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 1: free speech, they do not care about human rights, and 924 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 1: somehow we can't even count on Libs to be united 925 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:25,439 Speaker 1: with their fellow Americans US against China. No, they don't 926 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 1: want it to be blamed on China. They want the 927 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 1: whole COVID situation to be placed at the foot of 928 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: the White House and on Donald Trump's shoulders. More specifically, 929 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 1: it's all his fault because they think that is the 930 00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:42,919 Speaker 1: single greatest way to advocate for Joe Biden to become 931 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:45,879 Speaker 1: the next president of United States. That's what they really 932 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: that's what they really truly believe. That is what their 933 00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 1: thought process is on all of this stuff. And Nancy 934 00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 1: Pelosi makes this explicit it she said, Guy ziph yeah, 935 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: says is it trumps. Let's let's call it the Trump virus. 936 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: She calls it the friggin Trump virus. Blake clip ten. 937 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 1: But I think with the President's comments today, he recognized 938 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: the mistakes that he has made by now embracing mask wearing, 939 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: and the recognition this is not a hoax. It is 940 00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 1: a pandemic that has gotten worse before it will get 941 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:34,120 Speaker 1: better because it is an action. And in fact, clearly 942 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 1: it is the Trump virus, that Trump virus, that's what 943 00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,360 Speaker 1: she calls it. I think we should call the Pelosi 944 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:48,720 Speaker 1: virus because this stupidity, the political stupidity that has gripped 945 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 1: this nation now, that does not have a realistic view 946 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 1: of a COVID nineteen pandemic, that supports these idiot protesters 947 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 1: running all over the streets, throwing rocks at and all. 948 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 1: This that's a virus of the brain. We could perhaps 949 00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 1: call that brain virus, also known as Trump derangement syndrome, 950 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: the Pelosi virus, right, the Pelosi virus. I think that's 951 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 1: a fair way to describe it. And what is if 952 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to diagnose the Pelosi virus, it is to 953 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:22,880 Speaker 1: be a lib who sees the world through this bizarre 954 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 1: lens of everything is Trump's fault and everything going wrong 955 00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:30,800 Speaker 1: would be made better if you put the quasi well, 956 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,120 Speaker 1: let's just say too old for the job. Joe Biden 957 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 1: in the role of commander in chief and the most 958 00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 1: powerful job in the world, and cops aren't the good guys. 959 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 1: Cops are the bad guys. I mean, you go down 960 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 1: the whole list. You know, we need a green new deal, 961 00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: we need more socialism. That's the Pelosi virus. It's a 962 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: brain virus, takes over your mind, and it doesn't make 963 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 1: anything better. In fact, it makes everything markedly worse. But 964 00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 1: as I've been saying, and as you know, the single 965 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 1: most important takeaway that the Democrats want anyone to have 966 00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: during all this is the blame, the mountains of blame 967 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 1: that they are putting on top of the Trump administration 968 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 1: with this, even though as we know, it is the 969 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 1: China virus, and it comes from China, and it is 970 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: hurting the entire world, and the US response to this 971 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: has not been that bad, although if you took New 972 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:26,880 Speaker 1: York and New Jersey out of the equation, the US 973 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 1: response to this virus has been incredible. Actually, it's two 974 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,240 Speaker 1: Democrats states, one of which I am currently sitting in, 975 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:37,800 Speaker 1: that are the reason that we've had a you know, 976 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:41,960 Speaker 1: a response to this virus that isn't much better than 977 00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 1: effectively all of the major meaning large European countries. You know, 978 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 1: Germany might be on a per capita basis right alongside 979 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 1: US but we would be far better than Italy, France, Germany, 980 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:58,760 Speaker 1: the UK, you name it, if it wasn't for New 981 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: York and New Jersey, which got hit so badly in 982 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:06,040 Speaker 1: the early days of this. I am frustrated right now 983 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 1: because I think what's going to happen is now. Now 984 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 1: Trump has relented a bit and said, look, wear masks 985 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,240 Speaker 1: under certain circumstances in certain times, and they're going to 986 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:20,080 Speaker 1: take that as oh he's it's such a big backtracking. 987 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 1: And look what he's doing now. We're seeing the curve 988 00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:26,920 Speaker 1: is already bending in these other in these states, and 989 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,720 Speaker 1: it's not has nothing to do with enhanced restrictions and lockdowns. 990 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 1: The curve is bending downward because this is what happens 991 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:39,800 Speaker 1: with this virus. The susceptible population gets infected quickly. If younger, 992 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:43,120 Speaker 1: healthier people get infected, they clear the virus. As long 993 00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 1: as you can protect people with compromise immune systems and 994 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 1: in the high risk age group, you will have a 995 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 1: relatively low mortality even with a very high degree of spread. 996 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 1: This was always Look Sweden did this, and Sweden never 997 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 1: locked As we know, you could always go to restaurants, 998 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 1: you could always go to cafes. Sweden took this approach 999 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 1: and they are in the middle of the pack in Europe, 1000 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 1: and that includes countries where mask wearing became a religion 1001 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 1: and lockdown became extreme. You know, I'm seeing there's a spy. 1002 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 1: Australia has had very severe COVID nineteen lockdown at different points, 1003 01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 1: and Australia is now having a surgeon cases, right, I mean, 1004 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 1: this is just we like to believe that we can 1005 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 1: control this, or people some people like to believe that 1006 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 1: we can control this, and at the end of the day, 1007 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 1: we just we can't. We can try to manage the flow, 1008 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 1: but we cannot defeat. We cannot stop the disease in 1009 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 1: its tracks with our actions. That is a lie. It's 1010 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 1: a lie. It's just not true. And then that brings 1011 01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 1: me also to the fight over schools. The fact that 1012 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 1: Democrats are in favor of keeping kids out of schools 1013 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:59,720 Speaker 1: is the clearest example we've had of the politicization of 1014 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 1: this issue, the removal of science from the equation and 1015 01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:07,840 Speaker 1: the enhancement of politics as the primary method of making 1016 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 1: a determination. Since we had the Black Lives Matter protests 1017 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:14,440 Speaker 1: out in the streets and we were being told by 1018 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 1: public health authorities who had been very vocal for months 1019 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 1: about how we all need to lock down and social distance. Well, 1020 01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 1: but this is like really important because we like have 1021 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 1: to defeat racism. So it's like really important we do 1022 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 1: this right now, even if it means people spread the virus, 1023 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 1: because racism is totally going to be defeated by these yelling, 1024 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 1: shrieking morons gathered by the thousands all over the country, right, 1025 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:38,200 Speaker 1: that's really going to make everything better. So now we 1026 01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:42,360 Speaker 1: have the school issue, where once again there's no science 1027 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 1: based argument here. The argument is really just a question 1028 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 1: of what's going to be politically damaging for Republicans, for Trump, 1029 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 1: and what do Democrats think they can get away with. 1030 01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the mayor of New York, the largest 1031 01:01:57,200 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 1: school system in the country. Public school system is of 1032 01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:03,840 Speaker 1: course in New York. Here's the mayor saying that he's 1033 01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 1: got a clear schedule in mind for when we can 1034 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 1: go back to five day a week schools. Play clip eight. 1035 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: Seventy five percent of New York City public school parents 1036 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,320 Speaker 1: want our kids back in school. They agree with your 1037 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:17,680 Speaker 1: point that you're going to learn much better in school, 1038 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 1: that the kids need that for their development. And their future. 1039 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,680 Speaker 1: Everyone cares about safety and health. So the way I 1040 01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:27,320 Speaker 1: look at is look right now, New York City has 1041 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:31,640 Speaker 1: had extraordinary success after going through hell in March and April, 1042 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 1: the people a city really fought back against this disease. 1043 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 1: They've been very disciplined the face coverings of social distancing. 1044 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,800 Speaker 1: We've been really tough in the restrictions we've had in place, 1045 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 1: and now consistently our health indicators show that we would 1046 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:47,040 Speaker 1: be in a position to open up school. But we're 1047 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:48,840 Speaker 1: going to make that judgment when we get right up 1048 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 1: on the beginning of school in September. That's when we'll 1049 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 1: make the final decision. The day we get to the 1050 01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 1: vaccine is the day that will really go to full 1051 01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 1: five day a week normal instruction in our schools. This 1052 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:05,720 Speaker 1: is exactly what we were told and what we believe 1053 01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 1: there was agreement on from the beginning. We were told 1054 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 1: that there would not be a lockdown until vaccine approach 1055 01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 1: to this virus. That's what we were led to believe. 1056 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 1: And now you have people like Deblasio straight up saying 1057 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 1: school lockdown or least real school does not happen again 1058 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 1: until there's a vaccine. They're saying it out loud. Now 1059 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:34,800 Speaker 1: now it's all, oh, no, we have to keep doing 1060 01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,240 Speaker 1: this until there's a vaccine. Still can't go to the 1061 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:39,600 Speaker 1: gym in New York, Still can't dine indoors in New York, 1062 01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:41,160 Speaker 1: as well as a lot of other places. I know 1063 01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:45,720 Speaker 1: that Texas, Florida, Arizona, California. Those you're listening in those states, 1064 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: you've got all. You got your own prop Georgia. You've 1065 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,280 Speaker 1: got a rough situation happening in all those states now 1066 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 1: with COVID nineteen, with the restrictions, as well as from 1067 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 1: the surge in cases. Although we're not seeing the big stir, 1068 01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 1: Why aren't we seeing the big And I have a 1069 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 1: theory that I keep promoting to you as to why 1070 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 1: we don't see a big surgeon fatalities from the virus. 1071 01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:08,520 Speaker 1: What does the left say, Oh, we didn't mask enough. Well, 1072 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 1: hold on, we have all these new cases. Why hasn't 1073 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:15,360 Speaker 1: the mortality rates spiked. Well, I've told you it's because younger, 1074 01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:17,640 Speaker 1: healthier people who clear the virus are getting this, and 1075 01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: there's also greater immunity in the population than people initially 1076 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:23,919 Speaker 1: realized that. As long as we're protecting seniors and people 1077 01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: who are at risk. You're gonna have low mortality even 1078 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 1: with high spread. Now what a Democrats say, look it down, 1079 01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 1: wear a mask that'll save us all. Really won't, but 1080 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:41,600 Speaker 1: they say, they say this anyway, even though doctor foul, 1081 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:45,720 Speaker 1: we haven't heard from a fouch today. Where is the fouch? 1082 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:53,600 Speaker 1: Oh fouci, oh fauci? Where four art thou fouci? I 1083 01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 1: know wherefore means why not where? But what doesn't matter? 1084 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:00,640 Speaker 1: He is the fouch. For those of you who missed them, say, look, 1085 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,000 Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta get the kids back into school. 1086 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,840 Speaker 1: You gotta, you know, take those little kids. You gotta say, hey, 1087 01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 1: wash your hands, keep a distance. No, no, you know, 1088 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 1: don't don't. Don't rub your nose and touch somebody else 1089 01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:17,680 Speaker 1: with it or whatever. That's gross, unsanitary, also could spread 1090 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:20,480 Speaker 1: a virus. You don't want to do that. Use a tissue, 1091 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,880 Speaker 1: you know, don't be don't be a little barbarian um. 1092 01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 1: Here's the fouch play clip nine. Now, in general, when 1093 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 1: I think about that, I want to take a forty 1094 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 1: thousand foot look and say, as a fundamental principle, I 1095 01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:36,360 Speaker 1: do agree that we should try as best as we 1096 01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: possibly can to get the children back to school. Because 1097 01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 1: of the well documented, you know, secondary downstream ripple effects 1098 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,480 Speaker 1: that are negative, particularly on parents and on the children 1099 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 1: when you keep the bead at school. Gotta get the 1100 01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 1: kids back to school, that's right. We do have to 1101 01:05:56,320 --> 01:06:00,360 Speaker 1: get the kids back to school, We really do. We've 1102 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 1: got to get them back into school. But Democrats want 1103 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:05,400 Speaker 1: to slow roll at why. We all know why, we 1104 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 1: all know what's going on here, we all understand what 1105 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 1: the stakes are. And that's that's why Pelosi saying what 1106 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,240 Speaker 1: she has been saying, she's just it's it's a Trump virus. 1107 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 1: At Trump is like he's Trump is the reason everyone's dying. 1108 01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:24,200 Speaker 1: That's what she says. That's what she says. She actually 1109 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,840 Speaker 1: blames him for death. Pelosi is blaming the president for 1110 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:30,720 Speaker 1: causing death. Play ten well. I think with the president's 1111 01:06:30,760 --> 01:06:35,360 Speaker 1: comments today, he recognized the mistakes that he has made 1112 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:40,800 Speaker 1: by now embracing mask wearing, and the recognition this is 1113 01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:44,200 Speaker 1: not a hoax. It is a pandemic that has gotten 1114 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 1: worse before it will get better because it is an 1115 01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:52,440 Speaker 1: action and in fact, clearly it is the Trump virus, 1116 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:57,040 Speaker 1: the Trump virus. No, I think we should call it 1117 01:06:57,080 --> 01:06:59,880 Speaker 1: the Pelosi virus. I don't think we should let Nancy 1118 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:04,240 Speaker 1: Chardonnay socialist Nancy get away with this nonsense. Enough is enough, 1119 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:14,880 Speaker 1: you're in the freedom. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Look, 1120 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 1: we'll see where this ends up. We still don't know 1121 01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 1: the details of this initial proposal, but as it's written 1122 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 1: to my right now, I'm not only a no, I'm 1123 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:28,000 Speaker 1: a hell no. And sadly I think this is envisioned 1124 01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:31,480 Speaker 1: as an opening gambit. Everyone expects the Democrats to come 1125 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:35,959 Speaker 1: back with a huge wish list of spending and this 1126 01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 1: is the swamp and a feeding frenzy. Everybody's lobbyist has 1127 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 1: their hand out saying well, look, if you're spending trillions 1128 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:45,000 Speaker 1: of dollars, I want to get some. And it's not right. 1129 01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:49,080 Speaker 1: It's it is. When we've got over twenty percent of 1130 01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:52,240 Speaker 1: the working population in this country sitting at home without 1131 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:56,600 Speaker 1: a job, our focus should be on getting You know, 1132 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,840 Speaker 1: just six months ago we were in an historic economic boom, 1133 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:03,840 Speaker 1: wit the lowest unemployment in fifty years, and due to 1134 01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:07,640 Speaker 1: this pandemic that escape from communist China due to their 1135 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:11,720 Speaker 1: cover up, forty million Americans are hurting right now. We 1136 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:14,200 Speaker 1: need to have our priority getting them back to work 1137 01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 1: and getting them able to provide for their families. Ted 1138 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:20,240 Speaker 1: Cruiz is right, we got to stop this. Uncle Sam 1139 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:23,599 Speaker 1: just writes, everybody checks mentality. We got to get everybody 1140 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 1: up and going and working again. I mean, I haven't 1141 01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:29,280 Speaker 1: taken a day off, and I look, I'm fortunate to 1142 01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:30,720 Speaker 1: have a job, and I get that, and I am 1143 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 1: thankful for it. But I mean, you know, there are 1144 01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 1: people who have been continuing on with their work every day. 1145 01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:39,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I haven't taken a day off since the 1146 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 1: pandemic started, and I'm looking around that I'm thinking there 1147 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:46,679 Speaker 1: are a lot of people that have continued essential workers, 1148 01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:48,320 Speaker 1: a lot of people that have continued doing what they do, 1149 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:50,679 Speaker 1: or they're working from home, and they're even more comfortable. 1150 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 1: They like it even more, it's even better for them. 1151 01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:57,920 Speaker 1: But regardless, we gotta get back to work as a country, 1152 01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 1: this has to happen. We don't. We don't sustain. We 1153 01:09:03,080 --> 01:09:07,919 Speaker 1: cannot sustain what's going on right now with the trillions 1154 01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 1: and trillions of dollars that we're spending. If it were possible, 1155 01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:12,880 Speaker 1: I just would would tell you to work through this 1156 01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:16,960 Speaker 1: thought experiment with me. If it were possible to do this, 1157 01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:21,000 Speaker 1: why wouldn't we just have everyone stay home and the 1158 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:24,200 Speaker 1: government just keeps writing checks. The government just keeps sending 1159 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:26,519 Speaker 1: you it. And why make it only six hundred dollars 1160 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:28,479 Speaker 1: of unemployment insurance? Why not a cool Why not a 1161 01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:32,559 Speaker 1: grand al? Why not a thousand dollars? Why not ten grand? 1162 01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 1: I mean, as much as producer Mark even loves this show, 1163 01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:38,280 Speaker 1: if he could stay home, well he's already home, But 1164 01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:39,920 Speaker 1: if he could stay home and not do any work 1165 01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:42,000 Speaker 1: and make ten grand a week, I would have to 1166 01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:44,400 Speaker 1: really ask him, very very nicely to keep doing his 1167 01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:47,639 Speaker 1: job anyway. That would be hard. I would do whatever 1168 01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:51,920 Speaker 1: I could to make you fire me. Here you go. 1169 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean, look, ten grand a weeks a lot of money, buddy, 1170 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:55,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I couldn't. I wouldn't even 1171 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:58,760 Speaker 1: be able to be mad at you. So you know, 1172 01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:02,120 Speaker 1: at some boy, and see, at some point we understand 1173 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:06,879 Speaker 1: that there's a clear limit to what we can spend, 1174 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:08,920 Speaker 1: and that there are there are downsides to this, and 1175 01:10:08,960 --> 01:10:13,720 Speaker 1: there are there are consequences to this. It's not just oh, 1176 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 1: we do this and everything is going to be fine. 1177 01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,240 Speaker 1: So I think that's very important for everyone to see. 1178 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,800 Speaker 1: Ted Cruze understands this, and we've got to get back 1179 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 1: to work. And he also said in a sound bite 1180 01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:26,640 Speaker 1: very similar to this, that we all know right that 1181 01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:28,760 Speaker 1: after this is what we're all saying on the right, 1182 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:32,719 Speaker 1: everyone's paying attention, the problems get much less. If Biden wins. 1183 01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:34,880 Speaker 1: The day after he wins, then we can have a 1184 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:39,639 Speaker 1: Then you'll see the beginnings of some reasonable that it's 1185 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:42,839 Speaker 1: not entirely some reasonableness when it comes to the economy 1186 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 1: and spending and getting people back to work. Oh and 1187 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,519 Speaker 1: then a whole lot of socialism as well. But but 1188 01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:50,640 Speaker 1: at least they'll say, yeah, we can beat this virus. Well, 1189 01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 1: we'll be able to defeat this thing together now now 1190 01:10:55,200 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 1: that old man Biden's calling the shots, which is a 1191 01:10:58,120 --> 01:11:02,440 Speaker 1: terrifying thought saying.

So, so let's let's 1200 01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:33,080 Speaker 1: jump into this, shall we. BLM is a movement that's 1201 01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,120 Speaker 1: been around for a few years. We've been talking today 1202 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:39,360 Speaker 1: on the show extensively about what's going on in Chicago, Portland, Seattle, 1203 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:41,800 Speaker 1: violence on the streets, and here in New York City 1204 01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:46,400 Speaker 1: crime is rising. And I've been saying, what exactly has 1205 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:48,599 Speaker 1: BLM accomplished up to this point? And I would say, 1206 01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:51,479 Speaker 1: all the things you could point to really would be negative. 1207 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:55,320 Speaker 1: What is the movement? I mean, and therefore not really accomplishments, right, 1208 01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 1: But what is the movement as it stands today? What 1209 01:11:58,160 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 1: has BLM become? Rob Well, I think that you have 1210 01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:04,120 Speaker 1: to understand that Black Lives Matter BLM at this point 1211 01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:07,040 Speaker 1: is and is a corporation. It's a business. This is 1212 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:11,640 Speaker 1: an organization, right, So this is something that has generated 1213 01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:15,240 Speaker 1: untold amounts of money. It's almost like this grift where 1214 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,680 Speaker 1: they got I think Bank of America gave them a 1215 01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 1: billion dollars. They're getting hundreds of millions of dollars from 1216 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:26,320 Speaker 1: all of these corporations because they have managed to kind 1217 01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 1: of define and brand blackness, right, So what it is 1218 01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:35,240 Speaker 1: accomplishing is basically a whole lot of chaos on the streets. 1219 01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 1: They're definitely accomplishing getting a lot of angry potential Democratic 1220 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:43,920 Speaker 1: voters riled up. And it is accomplished making their founders 1221 01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:46,640 Speaker 1: in the vast majority of the infrastructure of people that 1222 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:51,800 Speaker 1: are fundraising them for them very very very very very wealthy. 1223 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:55,840 Speaker 1: Now what they've accomplished for the average black American on 1224 01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:59,240 Speaker 1: the street, I have no clue, you know where I'm 1225 01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:01,720 Speaker 1: at right now. In we we have protesters and they 1226 01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:04,639 Speaker 1: come out, they come out every single night. Are not 1227 01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:09,719 Speaker 1: entirely sure what they're protesting for or about. They're very angry, 1228 01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:13,400 Speaker 1: they're very sad, and a little emotionally disturbed. And not 1229 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 1: to tell you so, one of the protesters came into 1230 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:18,439 Speaker 1: the neighborhood that I was in. There were there were 1231 01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:23,519 Speaker 1: a big group and they were very confrontational with people black, white, 1232 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:27,800 Speaker 1: Latino whatever that were just enjoying their evening, and they 1233 01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:32,360 Speaker 1: were so controversial and it's so confrontational and so sort 1234 01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:35,679 Speaker 1: of emotional about it. I saw this this young black 1235 01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:40,640 Speaker 1: girl just screaming and crying, and on one hand, I 1236 01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:43,160 Speaker 1: have a lot of empathy for that, but on the 1237 01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:46,240 Speaker 1: other hand, I have a lot of anger because it's 1238 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:49,280 Speaker 1: so cynical among the puppet masters of the left, and 1239 01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:54,680 Speaker 1: this is what they do. They exploit black pain, suffering, 1240 01:13:55,280 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: feelings of hopelessness for votes. It's it's actually very despicable, Buck, 1241 01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,720 Speaker 1: and I don't think that it's a bad thing to 1242 01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:06,679 Speaker 1: really speak out against that. And they're certainly not hoping 1243 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 1: the black family, because we can go on the Black 1244 01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter website. They're one of their major goals 1245 01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:17,679 Speaker 1: is to dismantle the structure of the nuclear family. And 1246 01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:21,360 Speaker 1: we all know that African Americans, like all Americans, are 1247 01:14:21,720 --> 01:14:26,639 Speaker 1: vastly more likely to become wealthy, successful winners, and life 1248 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: when they come from a two parent household. So what 1249 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:32,439 Speaker 1: dismantling the two parent family structure is doing for Black Americans, 1250 01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:34,880 Speaker 1: I have no idea, but like I said, it's get 1251 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:36,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people wealthy. It's making a lot of 1252 01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:41,759 Speaker 1: people rich. And as always, when it comes to how 1253 01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:45,760 Speaker 1: the left uses African Americans, it's the ones on the 1254 01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:48,600 Speaker 1: street that are suffering them. By the way, BLM is 1255 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:51,479 Speaker 1: not doing anything about violence in Chicago, They're certainly not 1256 01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:54,559 Speaker 1: doing anything about that. They're certainly not doing anything about 1257 01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:58,400 Speaker 1: violence in the communities that are plagued by this stuff 1258 01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:02,000 Speaker 1: as they seek to defund the police. So look as 1259 01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:06,920 Speaker 1: it stands right now, as a movement, organization, corporation, whatever 1260 01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:09,080 Speaker 1: you want to call it, I think it's something that 1261 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:13,720 Speaker 1: is destructive and I don't allow them to define my blackness. 1262 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:15,559 Speaker 1: So I'm not going to be afraid to say that. 1263 01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:19,559 Speaker 1: We're speaking to Rob Smith, author and veteran author of 1264 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:23,080 Speaker 1: Always a Soldier and contributor to the First So Rob, 1265 01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 1: as a as a member of the black community, you 1266 01:15:28,120 --> 01:15:32,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to assume have conversations with other people in 1267 01:15:32,720 --> 01:15:37,120 Speaker 1: this country who are black, and there's probably a willingness 1268 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 1: or or an exchange of ideas that you can engage 1269 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:43,360 Speaker 1: in where you know, because you can speak from that perspective, 1270 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:47,920 Speaker 1: whereas I can't. And I just wonder, do you really 1271 01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:51,719 Speaker 1: when you're speaking to individuals who are black and who 1272 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:53,840 Speaker 1: do believe in this movement or who do think that 1273 01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:57,240 Speaker 1: this is all for the good? Do they believe things 1274 01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:00,920 Speaker 1: like when Lebron James tweeted out that black people are 1275 01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:03,599 Speaker 1: literally being hunted every time they leave their homes. Do 1276 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,799 Speaker 1: they believe that or do they understand or understand these things? 1277 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:12,880 Speaker 1: The movement slogans as exaggerations meant to get people mobilized, 1278 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 1: but they don't really take it literally. Mean when you're 1279 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:18,919 Speaker 1: talking about a young a young black woman crying, for example, 1280 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:22,519 Speaker 1: while confronting people and screaming about BLM stuff, it makes 1281 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:25,080 Speaker 1: me wonder, what do what do members of the black 1282 01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:29,640 Speaker 1: community that adhere to this movement ideology? What do they 1283 01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 1: really believe? You know? How much of a conversation. So 1284 01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:36,080 Speaker 1: I was having a conversation. I was in Minneapolis about 1285 01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:38,000 Speaker 1: a month ago for a go funding. We raised so 1286 01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:40,559 Speaker 1: much money to help rebuild Minneapolis, and I'll be going 1287 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:44,679 Speaker 1: there next month to deliver those checks to those small 1288 01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 1: business owners. But I was at the George Floyd Memorial 1289 01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:49,080 Speaker 1: and I spoke with the young black man just off 1290 01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:50,400 Speaker 1: the cup. You didn't know who I was, and I 1291 01:16:50,439 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: was conservative, didn't really care. We were just talking as 1292 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,240 Speaker 1: basically two men. And what struck me was when we 1293 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 1: started talking about that stuff. And I don't get very 1294 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:02,679 Speaker 1: confrontational these conversations. To me, it's more of a exchange 1295 01:17:02,680 --> 01:17:07,519 Speaker 1: of ideas, right, So he really believed this stuff, and 1296 01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:10,439 Speaker 1: he really believed that as a black man, you know, 1297 01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:13,559 Speaker 1: the police are out to get me. And not only that, 1298 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:18,839 Speaker 1: but this stuffarts affecting how people see the world in general, right, 1299 01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 1: because we moved from the BLM stuff and we just 1300 01:17:20,880 --> 01:17:24,040 Speaker 1: started talking about entrepreneurship because I believe in Buck. You 1301 01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 1: and I have had these conversations and I thank you 1302 01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 1: for leading me in the right direction and some of 1303 01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 1: these conversations. But entrepreneurship is the way for all of us, 1304 01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:36,479 Speaker 1: black white, with teenager doesn't matter, I think, to build well, 1305 01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 1: to become successful. And when I tried to talk to 1306 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:42,599 Speaker 1: this this young black man about this, it's like every 1307 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:45,559 Speaker 1: single thing that I said. When I said you can't, 1308 01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:48,920 Speaker 1: he would tell me why he couldn't write. And so 1309 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,759 Speaker 1: it was just this back and forth and back and forth, 1310 01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:54,000 Speaker 1: and by the end of I think it was a 1311 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:56,519 Speaker 1: forty minute conversation at the George Floyd Memorial. It was 1312 01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:59,559 Speaker 1: hot out there that day. I think that we were 1313 01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:02,719 Speaker 1: both offset and it took that long just to break 1314 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:06,600 Speaker 1: down these middle barriers up here that told him that 1315 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:09,720 Speaker 1: no matter what he does, because he's black in America, 1316 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:11,600 Speaker 1: he's going to be a professional victim. He's going to 1317 01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:14,439 Speaker 1: be hunted, he'll never be successful. Now, I'm not going 1318 01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:16,280 Speaker 1: to sit here and say that it is not harder 1319 01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 1: for some people than others, because that's not true. I 1320 01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,200 Speaker 1: haven't had the easiest world myself, but I think it's 1321 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:26,040 Speaker 1: a mentality mindset. And one of the most destructive things 1322 01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:28,880 Speaker 1: about BLM and a lot of different movements like that 1323 01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:35,400 Speaker 1: is that they seek to encourage a mindset of hopelessness 1324 01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:40,599 Speaker 1: in people, and the the only sort of way out 1325 01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:43,439 Speaker 1: of that hopelessness is to keep us somehow where we 1326 01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:45,600 Speaker 1: will take care of you, We will take all of 1327 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:50,360 Speaker 1: this on for you, but just march with our slogan, 1328 01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 1: just donate to our causes. It's that's a destructive thing 1329 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:58,400 Speaker 1: because you're taking away agency from people. Rob is there 1330 01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 1: a political strategy point of view? Let's look at it 1331 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:07,600 Speaker 1: that way. Do you think that there's a way that 1332 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:11,440 Speaker 1: President Trump? People forget that over a million Black Americans 1333 01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,680 Speaker 1: voted for Donald Trump in the last election, right? And 1334 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 1: I think that that comes up again when you see 1335 01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 1: Jamille Hill say in a tweet a well known ESPN 1336 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 1: and now I guess political commentator, sports commentator, now political 1337 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:28,360 Speaker 1: that if you vote for Trump, you're racist. There's there's 1338 01:19:28,360 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 1: no wiggle room, right that. I think that was the tweet. 1339 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:34,200 Speaker 1: We've heard this before from other people, but it's coming 1340 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:36,720 Speaker 1: back again. So it's not I disagree on policy, it's 1341 01:19:36,760 --> 01:19:38,479 Speaker 1: if you vote for Trump, you're racist. That's what's being 1342 01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:41,160 Speaker 1: said now. That would be news to the million plus 1343 01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:43,599 Speaker 1: Black Americans who voted for him, as well as the 1344 01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:46,559 Speaker 1: percentage of a Latino population that voted for Donald Trump, 1345 01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:49,720 Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. Is there, Oh, you know, 1346 01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 1: we've always had as conservative as this idea that if 1347 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:58,320 Speaker 1: only the messaging could get directly to the black community 1348 01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:03,639 Speaker 1: about how all Americans want to see as much success, 1349 01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:08,280 Speaker 1: as much personal agency, autonomy and prosperity and happiness quite 1350 01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:11,800 Speaker 1: honestly as possible within the black community, that there would 1351 01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:16,240 Speaker 1: be ways that Trump and conservatives Trump now and conservatives 1352 01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:20,680 Speaker 1: could gain more support politically in the black community. Is 1353 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:23,439 Speaker 1: that worth the president doing right now? Or is it, 1354 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:27,160 Speaker 1: honestly just the usage of political resources that's not going 1355 01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:29,160 Speaker 1: to change anything. You know, the members of the black 1356 01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:32,080 Speaker 1: community who like Trump will continue to but it's very 1357 01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:35,320 Speaker 1: hard to make gains beyond that. I think it's that 1358 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:38,520 Speaker 1: hard to make gains, and I think that it's obviously 1359 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:42,719 Speaker 1: always worth having the conversation when it comes to engaging 1360 01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 1: black voters, But at a certain point you have to realize. 1361 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:48,639 Speaker 1: And this is kind of why so many Black people 1362 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,360 Speaker 1: are kind of like lost in this leptism and all 1363 01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:55,840 Speaker 1: of this stuff, is that it becomes a family structure issue. 1364 01:20:56,200 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 1: So if you're growing up in a broken home and 1365 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:01,000 Speaker 1: both of you arranons are not there, if you don't 1366 01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:05,280 Speaker 1: have these strong family structures, Look, we don't get We 1367 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:08,840 Speaker 1: get our rights and privileges from the Constitution and from God, 1368 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:13,000 Speaker 1: but this messaging of self reliance and all that stuff 1369 01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:15,960 Speaker 1: that has to come from within the home. And the 1370 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:19,320 Speaker 1: evil geniuses on the left they know that and they 1371 01:21:19,360 --> 01:21:22,799 Speaker 1: deeply realize that, which is why the most popular political 1372 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:26,200 Speaker 1: figures on the left generally come from two parent households 1373 01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:29,200 Speaker 1: where they've gotten all this stuff. But the idea is 1374 01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:33,479 Speaker 1: is that they get political power by lying to Black 1375 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:36,840 Speaker 1: people basically, and by telling them that these things are 1376 01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:39,960 Speaker 1: not important. So fundamentally, I don't think it's I don't 1377 01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:42,919 Speaker 1: think it's ever a waste of time politically to engage 1378 01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:47,080 Speaker 1: different audiences. I think that Trump has done it pretty 1379 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:50,559 Speaker 1: beautifully when it comes from a pure policy point of view, 1380 01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:52,920 Speaker 1: and I think that that is why a lot of 1381 01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:56,280 Speaker 1: people on the left are absolutely terrified about their prospects 1382 01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,320 Speaker 1: among black voters this election, which is why we have 1383 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:01,439 Speaker 1: all the BLM stuff and in the race riots and 1384 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:04,280 Speaker 1: all of that stuff that we're going through right now. 1385 01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:08,719 Speaker 1: But I think that ultimately the messaging that people get 1386 01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:10,599 Speaker 1: it has to come from within the home. It has 1387 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:13,320 Speaker 1: to come from within their own communities. And I think 1388 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 1: that the most powerful thing about this new, you know, 1389 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,520 Speaker 1: crop of black influencers that we have all across the internet, 1390 01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:22,559 Speaker 1: is that people are going to be able to get 1391 01:22:22,600 --> 01:22:24,200 Speaker 1: that stuff from their homes, but they're also going to 1392 01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:28,160 Speaker 1: be able to see a different perspective. One of the 1393 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:32,720 Speaker 1: most omnipresent criticisms of me is that people think that 1394 01:22:32,760 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 1: I'm somehow some trust fund kid, that I came from 1395 01:22:35,520 --> 01:22:38,280 Speaker 1: a wealthy family, that none of those things are true. 1396 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:40,280 Speaker 1: I'm from Acin, Ohio. I'll talk about this in the 1397 01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:43,200 Speaker 1: From Acin, Ohio. I'm from a single parent household. I 1398 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:45,920 Speaker 1: went to a high school in Akroin, Ohio that was 1399 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:49,719 Speaker 1: rated f you know, by the Ohio public school systems. 1400 01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:55,440 Speaker 1: So I had to get the messages of self discipline, determinism, determination, 1401 01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:57,760 Speaker 1: self aliance, all that stuff. I got that from the 1402 01:22:57,760 --> 01:23:02,479 Speaker 1: military to come from my family. So the thing is 1403 01:23:02,479 --> 01:23:04,759 Speaker 1: is that you have to get these messages from people 1404 01:23:04,760 --> 01:23:08,360 Speaker 1: in the home. They're not necessarily going to come from politicians, 1405 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:10,760 Speaker 1: and to tell you the truth, they're more likely to 1406 01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:15,200 Speaker 1: come from people like you and I than the President 1407 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 1: of the United States.

All right, Thanks 1413 01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:39,320 Speaker 1: so much. Buck, You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is 1414 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 1: the Buck Sex and Show podcast team. Whenever possible, I 1415 01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:51,040 Speaker 1: like to bring you some good news. And the good 1416 01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:54,439 Speaker 1: news that I bring you today, I don't know. It's 1417 01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:57,439 Speaker 1: like I'm running speaking in circles here. There is good 1418 01:23:57,439 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 1: news for me to bring, and the bringing of the 1419 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:01,559 Speaker 1: good news that I have for you is all of 1420 01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:04,679 Speaker 1: a sudden. I am French. Buck, I am very happy 1421 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,760 Speaker 1: for all love. You know. It's has to do with 1422 01:24:08,960 --> 01:24:12,760 Speaker 1: the vaccine. Trump has been saying that this is we've 1423 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:15,120 Speaker 1: got operation warp Speed, which whenever I hear this, I 1424 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:18,720 Speaker 1: always think of that scene in space Balls where they 1425 01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:21,280 Speaker 1: go from warp speed to I think it's ludicrous speed. 1426 01:24:21,640 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 1: Producer Mark probably hasn't even seen space Balls, have you. 1427 01:24:24,560 --> 01:24:28,479 Speaker 1: I've heard of it. I've seen space Jam. Space Balls 1428 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:33,480 Speaker 1: is better among Rick Moranis's finest finest appearances on film. 1429 01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:36,280 Speaker 1: Not as good as Ghostbusters, but still pretty good. But 1430 01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 1: you know they are at operation warp speed. They talk 1431 01:24:39,439 --> 01:24:42,840 Speaker 1: about this, and then you also you have some of 1432 01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:46,680 Speaker 1: the more recent news stories about the breakthroughs or at 1433 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:50,680 Speaker 1: least the effective early stages of the treatment. Here's the 1434 01:24:50,720 --> 01:24:56,200 Speaker 1: President on the vaccine seventeen. So ultimately, our goal is 1435 01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:59,920 Speaker 1: not merely to manage the pandemic, but to end it. 1436 01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:01,479 Speaker 1: We want to get rid of it as soon as 1437 01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:05,080 Speaker 1: we can. That is why getting a vaccine remains a 1438 01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:10,400 Speaker 1: top priority. Two vaccine candidates are entering the final stage 1439 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:14,439 Speaker 1: of clinical trials this month. This was achieved in record time. 1440 01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:17,800 Speaker 1: It used to be years before you were in a 1441 01:25:17,880 --> 01:25:21,000 Speaker 1: position like we are right now. Four other vaccines we'll 1442 01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:24,639 Speaker 1: lent to final trials and the following weeks, and we're 1443 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,479 Speaker 1: mass producing all of the top candidates so that the 1444 01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:31,680 Speaker 1: first to prove vaccine will be available immediately. And logistically, 1445 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:34,960 Speaker 1: we have the military ready to go. We have great people, 1446 01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 1: logistic military people, a wonderful general who's waiting for the 1447 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 1: vaccine so they can distribute it in record time. That's 1448 01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:45,760 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. So our military is all said 1449 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,920 Speaker 1: to go. We will deliver a vaccine, therapeutics, whatever it 1450 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:53,559 Speaker 1: is is necessary and defeat the virus once and for all. 1451 01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:57,679 Speaker 1: I think it's important here this. We will return to normal. 1452 01:25:58,760 --> 01:26:01,000 Speaker 1: This has been dragged out longer than I think almost 1453 01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:04,800 Speaker 1: anybody anticipated in the early days. We will return to normal. 1454 01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:07,240 Speaker 1: It's going to happen. I can't tell you when it might. 1455 01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:11,040 Speaker 1: In my mind, I'm I'm ready for things not to 1456 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:15,040 Speaker 1: really feel normal normal until next summer. That's just my 1457 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:17,040 Speaker 1: that's just my gut feeling. And that doesn't mean that 1458 01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:19,439 Speaker 1: things aren't getting better and getting better. But you know, 1459 01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 1: I think by next summer, people are going to be 1460 01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:24,040 Speaker 1: flying on planes and not really worry. You know, it's 1461 01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:25,880 Speaker 1: just going to be maybe some people still there'll be 1462 01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:28,400 Speaker 1: some voluntary mask wearing, will still be a part of 1463 01:26:28,439 --> 01:26:31,559 Speaker 1: the culture, but it's gonna there's gonna be a return 1464 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:33,519 Speaker 1: to normal. So that's what I see. I could be wrong, 1465 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:37,000 Speaker 1: but I'm very happy when I hear about the movement 1466 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:41,719 Speaker 1: on these vaccines. Here's a HHS secretary Azar talking about 1467 01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:44,080 Speaker 1: They've just signed a big contract to get you a 1468 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:45,800 Speaker 1: whole bunch of doses by the end of the year 1469 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:49,120 Speaker 1: Play fifteen. Under the President's leadership, we just signed a 1470 01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:54,040 Speaker 1: contract with a global pharmaceutical leader, Fiser, to produce a 1471 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:58,599 Speaker 1: hundred million doses of vaccine starting in December of this year, 1472 01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:02,479 Speaker 1: with an option to buy another half a billion doses. Now, 1473 01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:05,360 Speaker 1: those would, of course have to be safe and effective 1474 01:27:05,400 --> 01:27:08,920 Speaker 1: according to the FDA's gold standard. But this now adds 1475 01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:12,320 Speaker 1: to what President Trump has delivered, which is for other 1476 01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:16,440 Speaker 1: vaccine candidates, we now have five vaccine candidates that prioritize 1477 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:20,800 Speaker 1: the US people where we're going to manufacture vaccine and 1478 01:27:20,840 --> 01:27:23,600 Speaker 1: work to secure FDA approval of them. All at the 1479 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 1: same time. I gotta tell you, I'm I'm really going 1480 01:27:27,960 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 1: to enjoy shaking hands. I was never that big into 1481 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:32,240 Speaker 1: shaking hands before. I mean, I would shake hands, but 1482 01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:35,200 Speaker 1: I wasn't. I kind of miss it. I miss our 1483 01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:38,000 Speaker 1: old life, America. I do. I miss it a lot. 1484 01:27:38,840 --> 01:27:41,479 Speaker 1: I miss the sense that we all have that we 1485 01:27:41,560 --> 01:27:47,200 Speaker 1: can be around people, you know, and I go through phases. 1486 01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:50,320 Speaker 1: I'm not somebody that's particularly into being in big crowds. 1487 01:27:50,360 --> 01:27:53,439 Speaker 1: But man, the things that I want to get back 1488 01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:59,479 Speaker 1: to are crowded, crowded live music shows. And I will 1489 01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:02,360 Speaker 1: not comp laying about being elbow to elbow with people 1490 01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 1: in a stacked New York bar that is probably a 1491 01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:08,960 Speaker 1: violation of the fire code because so many people in, 1492 01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:10,720 Speaker 1: And I won't complain about that for a long time. 1493 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:12,720 Speaker 1: I can assure you, and how long I have to 1494 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 1: wait for a drink and all the rest of it, 1495 01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:17,559 Speaker 1: I'm not going to bring any of that up. So 1496 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 1: I'm continuing. I'm hoping to follow I'm following this, continue 1497 01:28:23,040 --> 01:28:24,400 Speaker 1: follow us, and hoping that we're going to get to 1498 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:28,479 Speaker 1: a place where we have that vaccine real soon. Producer Mark, 1499 01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,680 Speaker 1: when things are totally normal, what's top of the list 1500 01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:33,599 Speaker 1: for you, buddy? Sports game? Not even a sports game, 1501 01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:35,639 Speaker 1: because I can watch those on TV. I would say, 1502 01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:39,920 Speaker 1: a concert. You can't recreate a concert at home? Yeah, 1503 01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:43,559 Speaker 1: you can't, You cannot, You cannot do that? Well, you can, 1504 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:47,080 Speaker 1: but really poorly? Well yeah, Producer Mark hears me seeing 1505 01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:49,200 Speaker 1: sometimes before I come on air. We don't have to 1506 01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:51,880 Speaker 1: worry about that. Maybe one day, one day, you'll all 1507 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 1: give you a taste of that, but we I like 1508 01:28:53,439 --> 01:28:57,000 Speaker 1: to get him fired up by singing call it a 1509 01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 1: like a like a fight song of sorts for a 1510 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,840 Speaker 1: producer Mark before the show so and and producer Nick 1511 01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:05,800 Speaker 1: sometimes too, we get them in the mix. Anyway. A 1512 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:09,519 Speaker 1: vaccine is coming. I don't know when. I don't know 1513 01:29:09,560 --> 01:29:11,720 Speaker 1: how good it's going to be, but it's coming. And 1514 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:13,599 Speaker 1: hope is a hope is a good thing if you've 1515 01:29:14,560 --> 01:29:16,400 Speaker 1: perhaps the best of things. Isn't that what he says 1516 01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:19,720 Speaker 1: during Shawshank I think, yeah.

A 1519 01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:30,960 Speaker 1: quick pick up here, I mentioned this at the very 1520 01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:34,400 Speaker 1: top of the show. Rutgers, which is the state University 1521 01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:37,400 Speaker 1: of New Jersey, Bruce and Mark, how far are you 1522 01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:41,120 Speaker 1: from Rutgers? No very maybe twenty minutes, half hour? Okay, 1523 01:29:41,200 --> 01:29:43,599 Speaker 1: so you know Rutgers, if you're if you're an NJ 1524 01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:46,760 Speaker 1: everybody knows Rutgers really well. I just thought this was 1525 01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:49,720 Speaker 1: entering and hat tip to college fix dot com for this. 1526 01:29:49,880 --> 01:29:55,800 Speaker 1: Rutgers English Department to de emphasize traditional grammar in solidarity 1527 01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:59,080 Speaker 1: with Black Lives Matter. Here's the piece. The English Department 1528 01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:02,560 Speaker 1: at Rutgers University recently announced a list of anti racist 1529 01:30:02,640 --> 01:30:06,640 Speaker 1: directives and initiatives for the upcoming fall and spring semesters, 1530 01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 1: including an effort to de emphasize traditional grammar rules. The 1531 01:30:11,240 --> 01:30:15,320 Speaker 1: initiatives were spelled out by Rebecca Walkowitz, the English Department chair. 1532 01:30:15,800 --> 01:30:20,160 Speaker 1: Walkowitz sent out the email on juneteenth. One of the 1533 01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 1: initiatives is described as quote incorporating critical grammar into our 1534 01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:30,680 Speaker 1: pedagogy pedagogy sorry. It is listed as one of the 1535 01:30:30,680 --> 01:30:34,840 Speaker 1: efforts for Rutgers Graduate Writing Program, which serves graduate students 1536 01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:39,160 Speaker 1: across the Rutgers community. Under so called critical grammar, the 1537 01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:44,040 Speaker 1: approach challenges familiar dogma that writing instruction should limit emphasis 1538 01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:47,200 Speaker 1: on grammar and sentence level issues so as not to 1539 01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:53,760 Speaker 1: put students from nonstandard English backgrounds at a disadvantage. Don't 1540 01:30:53,760 --> 01:30:58,320 Speaker 1: expect proper grammar, according to the Rutgers English Department, and 1541 01:30:58,439 --> 01:31:00,880 Speaker 1: this is part of their solid are they say with 1542 01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:05,599 Speaker 1: the b LM movement. Look, this just strikes me as 1543 01:31:05,640 --> 01:31:08,680 Speaker 1: kind of offensive. You know, I don't know what else 1544 01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:11,080 Speaker 1: to say, and I'm not somebody runs around calling things offensive, 1545 01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:15,760 Speaker 1: but solidarity with the BLM movement, according to Rutgers, is 1546 01:31:16,400 --> 01:31:20,880 Speaker 1: not expecting proper, proper English to be used in the 1547 01:31:20,920 --> 01:31:30,080 Speaker 1: English literature department. Okay, I'm just gonna say, these colleges 1548 01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 1: keep getting crazier with this stuff. So there you have it, folks. 1549 01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:38,200 Speaker 1: Not quite as bad as the Smithsonian poster that said, 1550 01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:45,440 Speaker 1: you know, characteristics of whiteness and had things like objective reasoning. 1551 01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:50,120 Speaker 1: That was the Smithsonian took that down. That was super offensive, 1552 01:31:50,160 --> 01:31:53,240 Speaker 1: put up there by a white diversity consultant, by the way, 1553 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:56,200 Speaker 1: that was the person who was behind that diversity consultants, 1554 01:31:56,200 --> 01:31:59,280 Speaker 1: shaking us all down for all this cash. All right, 1555 01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:11,360 Speaker 1: I cover that story. Let's do roll call. Hey, team Buck, 1556 01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:21,200 Speaker 1: it's time for roll call.

I feel like this audience is very 1560 01:32:30,040 --> 01:32:33,479 Speaker 1: split over dubstep. Producer, Mark, do you ever listen I 1561 01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:36,679 Speaker 1: mean not really. I'll listen to techno remixes of songs, 1562 01:32:36,720 --> 01:32:39,639 Speaker 1: but not dubstep. Yeah, I know. If there's a difference, 1563 01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:43,240 Speaker 1: I guess.

They're not good at this. 1603 01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:46,440 Speaker 1: So they figured out a way to leverage social media 1604 01:34:46,520 --> 01:34:50,559 Speaker 1: and the search algorithms on these different podcast platforms to 1605 01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:52,560 Speaker 1: get people download their show.

Matthew, 1637 01:36:29,200 --> 01:36:31,600 Speaker 1: Hey Buck, have you heard about the upcoming series on 1638 01:36:31,680 --> 01:36:36,280 Speaker 1: Showtime based on James Coombe's book, A Higher Loyalty. It's about, 1639 01:36:36,400 --> 01:36:40,599 Speaker 1: if you guessed it, Russia, Russia, Russia, No doubt. It'll 1640 01:36:40,640 --> 01:36:42,840 Speaker 1: be presented from a far left perspective. What I thought 1641 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:45,559 Speaker 1: you'd find interesting is that Donald Trump will be in it, 1642 01:36:46,000 --> 01:36:52,280 Speaker 1: played by Brendan Gleeson. That's Hamish from Braveheart, Keep Up, 1643 01:36:52,439 --> 01:36:57,599 Speaker 1: Keep It Up, Buck Shields High Huh is your father 1644 01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:01,400 Speaker 1: a ghost or do you converse with you all night? Producer, Mark, 1645 01:37:01,400 --> 01:37:05,920 Speaker 1: you've seen Braveheart? Right? Sure, I'm I'm actually I'm actually 1646 01:37:05,960 --> 01:37:08,439 Speaker 1: a little sad right now. You've never seen Braveheart. I 1647 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:10,160 Speaker 1: don't even know how this is possible. I'm sure I've 1648 01:37:10,160 --> 01:37:12,679 Speaker 1: seen parts of it. Oh you came out of ninety 1649 01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:15,320 Speaker 1: five two? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, you were like you 1650 01:37:15,320 --> 01:37:18,240 Speaker 1: were like a year old? Can you can you go on? 1651 01:37:18,240 --> 01:37:21,599 Speaker 1: I think this three hour movie it's the best movie 1652 01:37:21,600 --> 01:37:26,599 Speaker 1: of all time, absolutely not the best movie ever made. 1653 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:28,920 Speaker 1: I barely have an attention spent to listen to you 1654 01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:31,320 Speaker 1: for three hours. I'm gonna watch a movie and you 1655 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:34,080 Speaker 1: get paid for that, exactly. That's a fair that's a 1656 01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:37,519 Speaker 1: fair point. Um. Yeah, I had not heard back to 1657 01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:42,439 Speaker 1: Matthew here. I'd not heard about this series on Showtime. Um, 1658 01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:45,639 Speaker 1: but I'm sure it's gonna be horrible. I mean, James 1659 01:37:45,680 --> 01:37:50,639 Speaker 1: Comey is not an appealing fellow in any regard, so 1660 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:52,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say. I mean, he's 1661 01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:57,000 Speaker 1: just kind of a lanky, sanctimonious weirdo. So how they're 1662 01:37:57,000 --> 01:37:59,720 Speaker 1: gonna do? But remember this is very important because this 1663 01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:03,840 Speaker 1: is how the left gets a lot of support for 1664 01:38:03,880 --> 01:38:07,680 Speaker 1: themselves from people who understand they'll be taken care of. 1665 01:38:08,800 --> 01:38:11,879 Speaker 1: What I mean here is if you are a soldier 1666 01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:14,920 Speaker 1: for the left, or if you do something that makes 1667 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:21,920 Speaker 1: the left apparatus happy, the Democrat Party happy, they will 1668 01:38:22,280 --> 01:38:28,800 Speaker 1: memorialize you, lionize you, canonize you. On that issue, I 1669 01:38:28,840 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 1: think of Steve Schmidt of the Lincoln Project like a 1670 01:38:32,520 --> 01:38:36,559 Speaker 1: ram Cans campaign and lost by a ton and led 1671 01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:41,560 Speaker 1: to eight years of Obama and dragging the country and socialism. 1672 01:38:41,640 --> 01:38:46,519 Speaker 1: But Stave Schmidt had a Woody Harrelson play him in 1673 01:38:46,560 --> 01:38:50,320 Speaker 1: the movie Game Change on HBO. Right, So if you're 1674 01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:51,600 Speaker 1: going to be a Republican, you want to be the 1675 01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:54,760 Speaker 1: kind of Republican who gets a famous actor to play 1676 01:38:54,760 --> 01:38:56,599 Speaker 1: you in a sympathetic way in one of these movies. 1677 01:38:57,439 --> 01:38:59,840 Speaker 1: That's always in the back of the minds of many 1678 01:38:59,840 --> 01:39:02,720 Speaker 1: of these political players, many of the establishment Republicans out there. 1679 01:39:03,160 --> 01:39:07,080 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm sure the series will be horrible and 1680 01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:09,320 Speaker 1: the Russia thing is ridiculous, and they're gonna but they're 1681 01:39:09,320 --> 01:39:11,160 Speaker 1: gonna make it seem like it's not ridiculous. That's the 1682 01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:13,879 Speaker 1: whole point. Just like the movie Recount with Kevin Spacey, 1683 01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:18,320 Speaker 1: another HBO movie. Oh, noticing a pattern made it seem 1684 01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:21,679 Speaker 1: like Bush stole the election from Gore, when the whole 1685 01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:24,000 Speaker 1: purpose of what they were doing was to only recount 1686 01:39:24,120 --> 01:39:27,800 Speaker 1: Democrats only wanted recounts in some areas that were Democrats strongholds, 1687 01:39:27,800 --> 01:39:31,479 Speaker 1: no recounts in Republican stronghold areas, to change the votes 1688 01:39:31,560 --> 01:39:33,920 Speaker 1: so that Gore could win. They were trying to steal 1689 01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 1: the election. But the whole movie leads you to believe, Oh, no, 1690 01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:39,880 Speaker 1: Republicans don't want all the votes counted. No, Democrats only 1691 01:39:39,920 --> 01:39:42,960 Speaker 1: wanted And there was never a count that had of 1692 01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:46,040 Speaker 1: any kind ever done, that had al go ahead in Florida. 1693 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:49,479 Speaker 1: Never didn't exist. But they kept saying, well, let's do 1694 01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:52,040 Speaker 1: a recount in this really blue county, but not any 1695 01:39:52,080 --> 01:39:56,840 Speaker 1: other counties around it. It's very transparent what they were doing. Oh, 1696 01:39:56,840 --> 01:40:01,240 Speaker 1: and Kevin Spacey played the political consultant whose name escapes 1697 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:04,120 Speaker 1: me right now, But I wouldn't want I's gonna say 1698 01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:06,080 Speaker 1: this right now. When they make the Buck Sexton movie, 1699 01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:09,439 Speaker 1: I don't want Kevin Spacey playing me. I don't want 1700 01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:14,400 Speaker 1: Kevin What who do you want to play Buck Sexton? Wow, 1701 01:40:14,439 --> 01:40:18,600 Speaker 1: that's a good that's a very good question. Um, you know, 1702 01:40:18,720 --> 01:40:21,920 Speaker 1: I think, uh, if you know, we want something that's 1703 01:40:22,520 --> 01:40:25,439 Speaker 1: really captures my essence and is just true to life 1704 01:40:25,439 --> 01:40:28,000 Speaker 1: and would be a visual cue to the audience. I 1705 01:40:28,040 --> 01:40:30,720 Speaker 1: think we gotta go with the guy who plays Thor, 1706 01:40:31,160 --> 01:40:36,920 Speaker 1: you know, I think that would be good. Really, that 1707 01:40:36,960 --> 01:40:38,920 Speaker 1: guy I don't even know his name. I want that 1708 01:40:38,960 --> 01:40:43,880 Speaker 1: guy to play me in the movie. That's a radio 1709 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:47,400 Speaker 1: a radio host who just magically has you know, twenty 1710 01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:51,960 Speaker 1: eight inch python biceps. You know, yeah, you want to 1711 01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:55,200 Speaker 1: play Yeah, you know what, I would take either of 1712 01:40:55,240 --> 01:40:59,800 Speaker 1: the Hemsworth brothers. That's it. Yeah, either one of them 1713 01:40:59,800 --> 01:41:01,559 Speaker 1: could play me in the movie. I would accept that. 1714 01:41:01,680 --> 01:41:05,679 Speaker 1: You know, we got we have similar similar uh eye 1715 01:41:05,680 --> 01:41:08,519 Speaker 1: and hair color.

Seriously, a 1770 01:44:14,120 --> 01:44:17,879 Speaker 1: study was done with hamsters wearing masks, and those results 1771 01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:20,479 Speaker 1: showed that humans should wear masks. I'll continue to take 1772 01:44:20,520 --> 01:44:22,200 Speaker 1: your stand on masks and not listening to what the 1773 01:44:22,200 --> 01:44:25,600 Speaker 1: hamsters say. Love the show.

I don't even I don't understand anyone could 1779 01:44:43,120 --> 01:44:45,120 Speaker 1: listen for more than five minutes, but it is what 1780 01:44:45,160 --> 01:44:47,840 Speaker 1: it is. Some of the others are great. There's some great. 1781 01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:49,960 Speaker 1: So I'm not I'm not somebody who's I'm not a hater. 1782 01:44:50,040 --> 01:44:52,760 Speaker 1: I love my conservative brothers and sisters who are doing 1783 01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:59,360 Speaker 1: a good job. But as for the mask situation and hamsters, 1784 01:44:59,360 --> 01:45:01,000 Speaker 1: it's just for my it's me. I used to think 1785 01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:03,280 Speaker 1: that having a hamster would be kind of fun as 1786 01:45:03,320 --> 01:45:06,439 Speaker 1: a pet, and and then I realized that if it 1787 01:45:06,479 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 1: gets loose, it just feels like a hamster running around 1788 01:45:09,520 --> 01:45:11,559 Speaker 1: is now a rodent in your house? True or false? 1789 01:45:11,600 --> 01:45:14,479 Speaker 1: Producer Mark absolutely like, I would be petrified if my 1790 01:45:14,520 --> 01:45:17,200 Speaker 1: hamster got out and I just didn't know where it was. 1791 01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:22,240 Speaker 1: So I was just thinking, you know, yeah at the ft, 1792 01:45:22,320 --> 01:45:24,400 Speaker 1: things get too crazy at the frat party, and maybe 1793 01:45:24,439 --> 01:45:27,640 Speaker 1: your hamster gets out. Imagine the middle of the night, 1794 01:45:27,680 --> 01:45:30,280 Speaker 1: your hamster carls on your face and you didn't know 1795 01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:33,800 Speaker 1: where it was before. Kind Of we're kind of going 1796 01:45:33,840 --> 01:45:38,679 Speaker 1: in other directions here. I was talking about an actual hamster. What. 1797 01:45:38,760 --> 01:45:39,960 Speaker 1: I don't even want to know what you where you 1798 01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:44,400 Speaker 1: were going? No, you know, I try to, you know, 1799 01:45:44,520 --> 01:45:47,040 Speaker 1: after after about a half a dozen drinks, I gotta 1800 01:45:47,040 --> 01:45:49,840 Speaker 1: watch out.

No, 1803 01:45:56,439 --> 01:45:58,680 Speaker 1: that's that's more like a chinchillo, though, because of the 1804 01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:03,360 Speaker 1: thickness of the for you know, sure people have chinchillas 1805 01:46:03,400 --> 01:46:05,439 Speaker 1: as pets, and for more I understand they can be 1806 01:46:05,520 --> 01:46:09,240 Speaker 1: quite delightful pets. People have some odd pets. I've never 1807 01:46:09,320 --> 01:46:12,679 Speaker 1: understood snakes as pets yea.
