Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom Huge. The battle for Portland
Speaker 1: wages on fourteen or shot at a funeral in Chicago.
Speaker 1: The Pelosi virus is spreading. The Missouri Attorney General is
Speaker 1: going to tell us why all charges should be dropped
Speaker 1: against the mcclass keys, and Rutgers wants to promote incorrect
Speaker 1: grammar in solidarity with Black Lives Matter. This this is
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is
Speaker 1: to decode what really matters with passionable intelligence. Make no
Speaker 1: mistake American, Great, great American. Again the Buck Sexton Show begins.
Speaker 1: He's a great guy. No, welcome everyone to the Buck
Speaker 1: set Show. My, oh my, the stuff that is going
Speaker 1: on in Portland is nuts, crazy, isn't it. You haven't
Speaker 1: seen some of the videos they're circulating all over the place.
Speaker 1: They are, of course trying to tell us that what
Speaker 1: you're seeing is democracy and action, that these are mostly
Speaker 1: peaceful protests. They're mostly peaceful. I mean they have set
Speaker 1: up in phalanx formation in the videos that you can
Speaker 1: see operating with the rehearsed tactics and cohesive maneuver of
Speaker 1: a domestic terrorist paramilitary group, and they're trying to destroy
Speaker 1: federal courthouses, and the only thing the media focus is
Speaker 1: on right now. This is a fascinating example of the
Speaker 1: propaganda at work here. The only thing the media wants
Speaker 1: to talk about is the police response. So you have
Speaker 1: the Democrats undermining our society. These are all Democrats doing this.
Speaker 1: And I want to be almost too insist on this point. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know all their anarchists are no, no, no, First
Speaker 1: and foremost, these are Democrats. These are the shock troops,
Speaker 1: the stormtroopers. This is part of the Democrat Blitzkrieg of
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. That's what is happening right now, the mobilization
Speaker 1: of all these different movements on the street, the rhetoric
Speaker 1: that has taken hold, not just for community organizers and
Speaker 1: rabble rousers of all kinds, but in the corporate boardroom now,
Speaker 1: the most powerful corporations in the country. This is the
Speaker 1: organized institutional establishment left embracing a radicalism that we've known
Speaker 1: is there and has been growing for a long time.
Speaker 1: Now it's running the show. And if you're wondering just
Speaker 1: to what degree, Joe Biden, who's supposed to be the moderate,
Speaker 1: longstanding solid as a rock, the Rock of Gibraltar, of
Speaker 1: the Democrat already, He's been a Joe's been in the
Speaker 1: game for forty years. He'll bring us back together. Joe
Speaker 1: worked for Obama as his VP for eight years. It's
Speaker 1: all a sham, it's all a facade. It's meant to
Speaker 1: fool you. Biden is just the puppet they're putting him forward.
Speaker 1: He is the empty vessel, empty up top in the brain,
Speaker 1: empty when it comes to courage and virtue and leadership.
Speaker 1: He is the empty vessel through which the far left
Speaker 1: will dictate policy in this country. While we're seeing just
Speaker 1: stunning stuff, I mean, the most aggressive, violent Antifa style
Speaker 1: protesting since I can't even think maybe the wto Mayhem
Speaker 1: in Seattle, which was almost now I think, decades ago.
Speaker 1: We are seeing stuff that we have not had to
Speaker 1: see for a long time. And you think that any
Speaker 1: president or any presidential candidate, I should say, looking at this,
Speaker 1: would understand you can't allow this. You can't allow people
Speaker 1: for reasons that are really not even disclosed. Right, some
Speaker 1: of its black lives matter, some of it's and the
Speaker 1: incarcel or the Carcel state, all these phrases and slogans
Speaker 1: that show up at these protests, and if you want
Speaker 1: to know how stupid and how theckless and reckless is
Speaker 1: the Democrat left. Now they will they will have not
Speaker 1: just the people on the streets who want to destroy everything,
Speaker 1: They'll have some of their favorite members of Congress. Right,
Speaker 1: stuff like this. This is Ianna Pressley, congressmoman Ianna Pressley,
Speaker 1: she tweeted out earlier today, cancel rent, cancel mortgage, cancel
Speaker 1: student debt. And to this, I want to say, cancel
Speaker 1: credit card debt, right, cancel, cancel all of mine. I
Speaker 1: don't want to pay anybody anything. I just want more
Speaker 1: for me, me, me. I don't want to have to
Speaker 1: go through with my obligations. I don't want to have
Speaker 1: to honor contracts. Right, That's that's the mentality of the left.
Speaker 1: That's what the Democrats are letting you know. This is childishness.
Speaker 1: This is this is the outcry of a mob of
Speaker 1: mad babies. We want this or we'll destroy things it.
Speaker 1: We'll scream and we'll cry. This isn't using the political system.
Speaker 1: This is using the threat of force. This is coercion.
Speaker 1: This is destruction. This is vandalism, this is criminality. And
Speaker 1: yet what does Biden Oh, that's right, he's such a trustworthy,
Speaker 1: a seasoned elder statesman. He's definitely an elder. And look,
Speaker 1: I know there are seventy eight year olds who could
Speaker 1: kick my button run ten miles tomorrow, you know, before breakfast.
Speaker 1: I get that Biden's not one of them. That's the point. Okay,
Speaker 1: Biden's not there. You know, we've all seen it. We
Speaker 1: know there's deterioration signing up to be president, that they
Speaker 1: would put somebody forward that it's it's truly crazy to
Speaker 1: think that this guy has eight more, not just decent
Speaker 1: years of health, eight more years of a ferocious energy
Speaker 1: and focus necessary to be president president. You know, say
Speaker 1: what you will about Obama, and there's a lot that
Speaker 1: I've said and a lot that I like Obama. You know,
Speaker 1: Obama had the focus. Obama had the health and the
Speaker 1: energy to drag this country closer to socialism than it's
Speaker 1: ever been. You know, that was not a concern with
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. It's a concern, and more than a concern.
Speaker 1: It's ombvious. But while this is happening, and Portland now
Speaker 1: has become this is all about the theater right and terrorism,
Speaker 1: and they're acting like domestic terrorists, less than lethal terrorists.
Speaker 1: They'll hurt cops. They'll hit them with plywood with nails
Speaker 1: in it, they'll throw rocks at them. But they know
Speaker 1: that if they start killing people, it'll cause too much
Speaker 1: of a backlash. Then finally, the good guys will be
Speaker 1: willing to use the overwhelming force necessary to defeat the
Speaker 1: bad guys. We're just we're not there yet. There's no
Speaker 1: political will in these cities. The people that are calling
Speaker 1: the shots for law enforcement officers at the local and
Speaker 1: state level in Oregon, in Washington are unwilling to give
Speaker 1: them the leeway necessary to shut this stuff down. But
Speaker 1: these domestic terrorists are doing this for the theatrics. They
Speaker 1: do this for the Graham, so to speak, the Instagram.
Speaker 1: They're doing this because they want everyone across the country
Speaker 1: and around the world to focus on their banners and
Speaker 1: their movement. And it creates this energy, right, this infectious
Speaker 1: energy of political stupidity. But it's out there, it's all
Speaker 1: over the place. People say, yeah, that's right. This is
Speaker 1: a really a funnel for anti Trump outrage. This is
Speaker 1: a funnel of trumped arrangement syndrome at their creating. With
Speaker 1: all of this, and I'm seeing now on social media
Speaker 1: people will do things like share a video of of
Speaker 1: you know, really nasty police violence and this was a
Speaker 1: blue check. I can't remember who did it, but it
Speaker 1: was nasty police violence and it went super viral, superviral.
Speaker 1: You see what's happening here. Just wait until six months passes.
Speaker 1: If Trump has his way, it's like the Stasi all
Speaker 1: over again. Oh yeah, that's what we're hearing now. And
Speaker 1: those losers at the Lincoln Project, it really is. It's
Speaker 1: it's the Loser Project there. It's just a whole bunch
Speaker 1: of losers. They're just good at doing one thing, losing
Speaker 1: and trying to tear it down people smarter, better and
Speaker 1: more successful than they are. That is the Lincoln Project,
Speaker 1: which if you don't know what that is, it's this
Speaker 1: group that's supposedly Republicans that want to help get Biden elected.
Speaker 1: George Will I'll never read another George Will column by
Speaker 1: choice unless I'm going to make fun of it for
Speaker 1: as long as if George Will now says he's gonna
Speaker 1: vote for Biden. Wow, he's establishment. Establishment Conservatives. They see
Speaker 1: what's going on in the country and they're thinking, yeah,
Speaker 1: I want more of the anarchy and recklessness and destruction
Speaker 1: of the rule of law and socialism and stadism and tyranny,
Speaker 1: because I'm the real Conservatives. People are lunatics. George Will
Speaker 1: you know, always he is always kind of a smarmy,
Speaker 1: little smarmy little schoolmarm you know, really was. I would
Speaker 1: never really liked that guy anyway. So I don't know him.
Speaker 1: I just don't I know his persona. I know the
Speaker 1: way that he presents himself the hall monitor of the
Speaker 1: conservative movement. So here we are. Now it's so clear
Speaker 1: that the Democrats are rooting for the violent mob that's
Speaker 1: trying to tear down our federal courthouses. Who remember, we
Speaker 1: were lectured for the entirety of the Trump presidency about
Speaker 1: how Trump is undermining our institutions. Trump is destroying our institutions.
Speaker 1: That was the talking point. That was the line that
Speaker 1: you heard from so many people across the Democrat Party
Speaker 1: in the media. And now here we have an instance
Speaker 1: of mobilized leftist Democrats who are literally trying to destroy
Speaker 1: an institution of the federal government, a federal courthouse in Portland,
Speaker 1: and whose side of the Democrats on the marauding barbarians.
Speaker 1: I was surprised. My favorite thing I saw from Andy know,
Speaker 1: who's out there covering all this on the on the
Speaker 1: left coast, the west coast, there's this group that calls them,
Speaker 1: call themselves the Moms, and they're all wearing these yellow
Speaker 1: T shirts and they're making this big deal about how
Speaker 1: you know, we're moms, that we're here to protect the protesters.
Speaker 1: And Andy knows them, he's familiar with them. He says
Speaker 1: a lot of them he recognizes from other anti protests
Speaker 1: where they were wearing the all black in there, and
Speaker 1: now they've done this all, Oh no, we're moms. He
Speaker 1: says that most of them aren't moms, aren't mothers, and
Speaker 1: many of them don't even identify as female. Seriously, but
Speaker 1: they're wearing yellow we are Mom's t shirts. That's how
Speaker 1: honest this movement is. Oh yeah, they're moms. They're not mothers,
Speaker 1: and they don't even think they're female, but their mom's
Speaker 1: all right, that's what Andy's telling us. He's doing great work,
Speaker 1: he really is. But what does Biden have to say
Speaker 1: about this? In a normal political environment, the Democrats would
Speaker 1: put forward some statement like we do not support this
Speaker 1: destruction and violence. We call for this to end immediately.
Speaker 1: This is not who we are. But we also decry
Speaker 1: the heavy handed tactics of trum blah blah blah blah blah. Right,
Speaker 1: that's what in a normal world where people were still saying,
Speaker 1: that's what we said, No, no, no, instead the problem,
Speaker 1: just as the lib leftists during the War on Terror
Speaker 1: always found any response to al Qaida was the cause
Speaker 1: of al Qaida. That was their mentality and that was
Speaker 1: their their primary talking point. Right, it's the fighting against
Speaker 1: terrorsm that creation. You go back, you remember this, that
Speaker 1: was across the board. The Democrats were, hey, don't be
Speaker 1: too mean to don't do too much against Alkaida. You're
Speaker 1: causing more terrorists by killing members of al Qaida, that's
Speaker 1: what they would say. Well, now here, in a domestic
Speaker 1: political context, enforcing the law is causing lawlessness. That's what
Speaker 1: they're constantly saying. Now they're they're just they they pretend
Speaker 1: that none of this other stuff is even happening. Here,
Speaker 1: here's Biden. We have a president who's determined to sow
Speaker 1: chaos and division, to make matters worse instead of better.
Speaker 1: We all remember the appalling scenes in front of the
Speaker 1: White House when peaceful protesters were gassed to make way
Speaker 1: for a Trump photoop. Now Homeland security agents with a
Speaker 1: without a clearly defined mandate or authority, arranging far from
Speaker 1: federal property, stripped of badges and insignia, and identifying markings
Speaker 1: to detain people. They are brutally attacking peaceful protesters, including
Speaker 1: a US Navy veteran. It's just it's just stunning, isn't it.
Speaker 1: It's stunning. Oh no, it goes on. Of course, the
Speaker 1: US government has the right and duty to protect federal property.
Speaker 1: The Obama Biden administration protected federal property across the country
Speaker 1: without resorting to these egregious tactics. I'm without trying to
Speaker 1: stoke the fires of division in this country. We need
Speaker 1: a president who brings us together. Blah blah blah. What
Speaker 1: a bunch of what a bunch of just malarkey. The
Speaker 1: borrow of Biden is m a big pilum a lark
Speaker 1: I'm actually not I like that word. I'm not giving
Speaker 1: that word to Biden. He's a pilum a larky. Yeah.
Speaker 1: During the Obama administration, whole neighborhoods were burned down. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they did a great job. The BLM movement started during
Speaker 1: the Obama administration, so Let's not pretend that they had
Speaker 1: some good handle on things right. There wasn't some great
Speaker 1: wave of racial healing that occurred under the eight years
Speaker 1: of the Obama administration. In fact, what we saw was
Speaker 1: a focus from the President and his entire White House
Speaker 1: on individual cases like the George Zimmerman case, like with
Speaker 1: treyvon Martin and Mike Brown in ferguson making things worse
Speaker 1: by feeding into false narratives that their base wants to
Speaker 1: hear cops of the bad guys. Cops are killing on
Speaker 1: armed black men all the time, and this is a
Speaker 1: systemic issue. Biden is because he has to be in
Speaker 1: order to get his base to turn out for him.
Speaker 1: The Democrat base is now clearly on the side of
Speaker 1: the angry, lawless, vicious mob. Not all Democrats are a
Speaker 1: part of that mob, but they are all rooting for
Speaker 1: the angry, vicious, attacking mob on the streets of cities
Speaker 1: across the country. I hope those independence and swing voters
Speaker 1: that are we're now going to start counting this election's
Speaker 1: distance from today in weeks, not months. I think it's
Speaker 1: what six weeks or so before the first vote start
Speaker 1: being cast. It's not far away. I hope that enough
Speaker 1: Americans are watching this being the lawlessness, the disorder, the disarray,
Speaker 1: and the abject cowardice and cynical opportunism of the Democrat Party.
Speaker 1: That's who they are, That's what they are. They should
Speaker 1: be held to account because they're disgrace, folks, They're a disgrace.
Speaker 1: You're in the Freedom This is the Buck Sex and
Speaker 1: Show podcast. You know. I didn't endorse Donald Trump, and
Speaker 1: in fact didn't vote for him for president, as you know,
Speaker 1: and I was always concerned that may. I was concerned,
Speaker 1: but was hopeful that perhaps he could get to the
Speaker 1: point where he could unite the country. I've now become convinced,
Speaker 1: absent a Damascus Road experience, I become convinced that he's
Speaker 1: not capable of this. He is not capable of being
Speaker 1: a unifier. In fact, I become convinced that he doesn't
Speaker 1: know how to accept personal responsible and always find somebody
Speaker 1: else to blame. That's kasick if you're wondering who's a loser,
Speaker 1: and and it's also a surly fellow. I do not
Speaker 1: like him from the times I have interviewed him. I'm
Speaker 1: not like I usually give people a pretty wide berth
Speaker 1: of you know, I know they've had a long day
Speaker 1: sometimes whatever, but it's just a he's a jerk and
Speaker 1: and he's he's bitter because you think, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm just a guy. You know, my dad was a maleman,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna run the country now because you know,
Speaker 1: I just sort of do the whole fake folks you thing,
Speaker 1: and I tell the Libs what they want to hear,
Speaker 1: so they don't hate me as much as they hate
Speaker 1: other Republicans. And yeah, uh yeah, that's right. The Trump
Speaker 1: is not unifying the country, isn't it fascinating? Democrats are
Speaker 1: both arsonist and firefighter in their own formulation. Here. They
Speaker 1: create all the disunity, right they they they create this,
Speaker 1: and then they turn around and say, look at all
Speaker 1: the disunity, Why can't Trump make us more unified? We
Speaker 1: will do a better job. We will do a better job.
Speaker 1: Liz Cheney, who is getting a lot of heat right
Speaker 1: now from some of my conservative brothers and sisters because
Speaker 1: she was spreading around the Russia bounty Taliban bounty story,
Speaker 1: which was just bull as I told you, right, didn't
Speaker 1: the Buckser tell you that this is nonsense. They're killing
Speaker 1: as many Americans as they can for their own purposes
Speaker 1: without a bounty. Anyway, Chenney understands at least where Biden
Speaker 1: is during all this trying to hide from accountability. Play nineteen.
Speaker 1: We would see efforts and unfortunately, we would probably see
Speaker 1: success at defunding the police, the elimination of Second Amendment rights.
Speaker 1: We'd see our national defense cut. We'd see a situation
Speaker 1: in which the production of fossil fuels would be significantly curtailed,
Speaker 1: moving towards a Green New Deal. We'd see probably the
Speaker 1: end of the filibuster in the Senate. We'd see efforts
Speaker 1: to make DC a state. We'd see efforts to expand
Speaker 1: the size of the Supreme Court and pack it with
Speaker 1: liberal justices. There's absolutely no question what's at stake in
Speaker 1: this election and how much worse off this nation would
Speaker 1: be under a Biden, Schumer Pelosi regime. Now, it's also
Speaker 1: important to remember that Vice President Biden, as we all know,
Speaker 1: is in his basement. Vice President Biden is in his
Speaker 1: basement partly because he's concerned about his ability to make
Speaker 1: it through an interview, but also because he doesn't want
Speaker 1: to have to talk about his socialist agenda. They're hiding,
Speaker 1: They're hiding Biden in the basement, not from the virus
Speaker 1: so much as they are from the Democrats socialism. It's true.
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The bus Essen Show podcasts. Remember
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. What's it going to take for
Speaker 1: Democrats to admit that their approach, that their policies aren't working.
Speaker 1: People are dying from them, and all they have to
Speaker 1: do is change. Of course, they don't even have to
Speaker 1: admit they were wrong in some of these cities. They
Speaker 1: don't have to say turns out that coddling criminals and
Speaker 1: downplaying the role of deterurating families in high crime communities,
Speaker 1: and the lack of emphasis on respect for authority and
Speaker 1: on educational they don't have to talk about all that.
Speaker 1: They could at least just say we're going to let
Speaker 1: police and cops do the jobs they need to do
Speaker 1: to keep more people safe. And I'm not saying that
Speaker 1: the cops can They're not superheroes. They can't do everything,
Speaker 1: but they could certainly do more than they are in
Speaker 1: some of these cities if the political authorities in charge
Speaker 1: Democrats let them. But it is worth asking, what's it
Speaker 1: going to take for them to finally relent, and in
Speaker 1: an election year like we're in right now, as you
Speaker 1: can understand it, the answer is nothing. There's there's no
Speaker 1: level of violence, of anarchy of lawlessness in major US
Speaker 1: cities that would bring them to make any change from
Speaker 1: the approved DNC talking points. And that's why I see
Speaker 1: a story like this and I mean it's a it's
Speaker 1: a gut punch. This is completely insane, you know. I
Speaker 1: remember I spent years of my life working on a
Speaker 1: CIA desks and two war zones and going to those
Speaker 1: war zones and covering covering it's not like a journalist,
Speaker 1: but you know, dealing with the issues of counterinsurgency and
Speaker 1: terrorism in those countries. And that's that's what you think
Speaker 1: of when you hear I mean, a country that is
Speaker 1: in a failed state status is what you think of
Speaker 1: when you hear about something like this. This is from
Speaker 1: ABC News, which really is as liberal at CNN. Now.
Speaker 1: I've I've been seeing a lot of ABC's coverage and
Speaker 1: the way that they these big networks ABC, NBCCBS, the
Speaker 1: way that they present information news is every bit as
Speaker 1: democrat aligned as anything you'd see at CNN and MSNBC,
Speaker 1: But I digress. Okay, here's what ABC writes. At least
Speaker 1: fifteen people. It was initially they said fourteen. Now it's
Speaker 1: at least fifteen people were shot outside a Chicago funeral
Speaker 1: home in a drive by shootout during a ceremony for
Speaker 1: a man who was killed in an earlier drive by shooting.
Speaker 1: According to the Chicago Police Department, the city's mayor and
Speaker 1: police officials are urging the public to come forward with
Speaker 1: that information to help end the cycle of violence. An
Speaker 1: unknown number of people inside a vehicle at a crowd
Speaker 1: attending a funeral on West seventy ninth Street in Chicago.
Speaker 1: The individuals on the street exchanged gunfire with the people
Speaker 1: in the vehicle as people were coming out of the
Speaker 1: funeral home. The shots rang out like they were literally
Speaker 1: raining on them. Police said fifteen people, ten women and
Speaker 1: five men, whose ages range from twenty one to sixty five,
Speaker 1: were taken to five different hospitals with gunshot wounds. Three
Speaker 1: women and three men were listed in serious condition. There
Speaker 1: were sixty shell casings found at the scene. This is
Speaker 1: out of a war zone. Fifteen people shot in one incident,
Speaker 1: fifteen at a funeral for heaven's sake, at a funeral
Speaker 1: they kill a guy, and then they find out when
Speaker 1: the funeral's gonna happen for that guy, and then they
Speaker 1: show up to kill all the people going to the funeral.
Speaker 1: How much more sick and evil can you be? But
Speaker 1: you know what's gonna fix this. You know what's gonna
Speaker 1: fix this. Some protests over the killing of George Floyd.
Speaker 1: That's gonna fix this. The defunding of police. That's gonna
Speaker 1: fix this. The end of the carceral state, that's going
Speaker 1: to fix it. This is insane. We all know it.
Speaker 1: Democrats wholesale believe it. They believe it because they need,
Speaker 1: they desperately need some moral superiority to cling to in
Speaker 1: the current national political debate. Oh, we care so much.
Speaker 1: We the Democrat party, care so much about oppressed minorities.
Speaker 1: We care so much about the history the legacy of
Speaker 1: slavery and racism in this country. The other side doesn't.
Speaker 1: That's a lie. The other side, Republicans, Conservatives. I'd say,
Speaker 1: people who don't suffer from extreme trumped arrangement syndrome, see
Speaker 1: what's happening in this country and say, if we're really
Speaker 1: concerned with saving lives. We need to get a handle
Speaker 1: on what's going on in these cities where the violence
Speaker 1: keeps occurring. People die, families are ruined. Fifteen people shot,
Speaker 1: that's a lot of people. I mean a giant gun
Speaker 1: battle at a funeral. If if this was a news
Speaker 1: story about something that had happened outside of Jalellabad with
Speaker 1: the Taliban involved, people would say, whoa, it's not going
Speaker 1: our whole pacification of Afghanistan. It's not going very well.
Speaker 1: This is in Chicago, the third largest US city. New
Speaker 1: York has spiking violence right now. Now. Look, New York
Speaker 1: is starting at a very it was handed over to
Speaker 1: the Moron de Blasio at a very low level. But
Speaker 1: New York City, which is you know, the center of
Speaker 1: now the defund the police movement for many Democrats. Shootings
Speaker 1: are up two one hundred and fifty two hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty three percent this year the first Now we're on
Speaker 1: seven months of this year, so we're past the halfway
Speaker 1: point this year last year. Direct comparison, arrests meanwhile are
Speaker 1: down sixty two percent. Oh hold on a second, much
Speaker 1: more crime, far fewer arrest is. Can anyone see a
Speaker 1: correlation here? Minor crime summons is down eighty six percent,
Speaker 1: traffic tickets down seventy six percent. Criminals know they can
Speaker 1: get away with anything. That's the quote from the New
Speaker 1: York Daily News. People are it's just a free for all. Now.
Speaker 1: You know why, because if a cop comes up to
Speaker 1: you and says, hey, well, you know what are you doing? Stop?
Speaker 1: Stop stealing that pair of sneakers from that store you
Speaker 1: just ran into, you know what the bad guy has
Speaker 1: to do now in order to get away, run and
Speaker 1: you know what happens if the cop is able to
Speaker 1: catch him, fight, elbow the cop kick him. That cop
Speaker 1: can't pull his weapon. Cop probably can't even pull his
Speaker 1: less than lethal can't pull a taser or a baton.
Speaker 1: So it's it's a foot race. And then it's a
Speaker 1: wrestling match. And if for some reason the cop is
Speaker 1: able to win the wrestling match, which won't always be
Speaker 1: able to do, they'll be released. Because we have no
Speaker 1: no bail anymore in New York. It will be released,
Speaker 1: you know, within an hour back out on the street. Oh,
Speaker 1: the court's going to put out a summons for them
Speaker 1: to show up at the at the courthouse. Oh, I'm
Speaker 1: sure they're terrified about what's going to happen there. Who's
Speaker 1: going to go and arrest them for the low level
Speaker 1: offense and for not showing up the court? Nobody, Nobody
Speaker 1: remember that Chesterton quote. I know a great society like ours,
Speaker 1: it implodes because it forgets the most obvious, the most
Speaker 1: important truth. And we're seeing that happen right now. And
Speaker 1: you understand the motivation for this, the lies that the
Speaker 1: Democrats have told, The lies they've told because it allows
Speaker 1: them to have a feeling of moral superiority to the
Speaker 1: other side. And then beyond that, the incentive that they
Speaker 1: have in misery. The Democrats are incentivized to create chaos
Speaker 1: and miss despair in this country. And as we know it,
Speaker 1: it's all as sue. As soon as Joe Biden comes
Speaker 1: into office, there'll be new stories about you know, the
Speaker 1: economic recovery really is under way. You know, maybe we
Speaker 1: really need to learn to live with this virus and
Speaker 1: stop cowering and fear. You know, maybe we're all going
Speaker 1: to be okay. Actually, after Biden wins, I mean I
Speaker 1: could set the clock to it right now. It couldn't
Speaker 1: be any now. I'm not saying Biden's gonna win, but
Speaker 1: that's the point here, that's the purpose. You think that
Speaker 1: these Democrats care about what they're doing to the country
Speaker 1: in the interim, about the people who will suffer. The
Speaker 1: business is destroyed, the livelihood's ruined, the people who will die,
Speaker 1: They do not care. They do not care because they
Speaker 1: also reject any responsibility for it. Somehow, they reject reason
Speaker 1: and accountability because that gives them political advantage. They don't
Speaker 1: have to debate, and they don't have to be held
Speaker 1: responsible for anything. They just get to run around and
Speaker 1: screaming and saying it's all Trump's fault, It's all Trump's fault,
Speaker 1: or my favorite, say that whatever the problem is is
Speaker 1: the result of the coronavirus, and then the coronavirus is
Speaker 1: Trump's fault, right, it's the transitive property of coronavirus. Trump
Speaker 1: blaming whatever the issue is in your city. Oh, it's COVID,
Speaker 1: that's the problem, and Trump is the reason why COVID
Speaker 1: so bad. So it's Trump. Oh, isn't that a Isn't
Speaker 1: that quite a neat trick they've pulled off. Here is
Speaker 1: Dublasio saying exactly that the problem here is and this
Speaker 1: is the mayor of New York, the guy who thought
Speaker 1: he was going to be the Democrat nominee. He's a
Speaker 1: total lunatic. And here's what he says about why there's spiking.
Speaker 1: I told you the numbers. He can't hide from it anymore.
Speaker 1: New York is in bad shape right now. And here's
Speaker 1: what he's saying, Play clip seven. We have to we
Speaker 1: have to make our streets safe as the number one
Speaker 1: responsibility to anyone in executive office. And you're right. In
Speaker 1: New York City, we've been the safest big city in
Speaker 1: America for years. We've had a very tough few months,
Speaker 1: no doubt, and it is directly related to the coronavirus,
Speaker 1: the dislocation it's caused in our society, the fact that
Speaker 1: our court system is not functioning yet, so many factors
Speaker 1: that have been absolutely aberrant for just the last four
Speaker 1: or five months. But we will beat it back because
Speaker 1: we've done that for a quarter century in this city.
Speaker 1: And Joe, the key point is we will do it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's just use the most boiler plate bs, politician phrases,
Speaker 1: and let's pretend like this didn't all happen. Because de
Speaker 1: Blasios are moron who has turned his back on the NYPD.
Speaker 1: New York is in bad shape, Chicago is in bad shape, Seattle, Portland, Atlanta.
Speaker 1: How many cities have to effectively lose control or we
Speaker 1: lose control of them. Law enforcement, the state no longer
Speaker 1: really able to protect people and defend them. Remember, for
Speaker 1: every shooting that happens, for every store that's burned down,
Speaker 1: every burglary that happened. At burglary that happens, the neighborhood,
Speaker 1: the people around that feel less safe. That's an intrusion
Speaker 1: on the public psyche. Right When these bad things happen,
Speaker 1: when there's a surge in them, it affects everybody who
Speaker 1: lives in that area. Now they all have to be worried.
Speaker 1: I have to walk female relatives at nights across Midtown
Speaker 1: Manhattan for safety reasons that I haven't had to do
Speaker 1: that in a very long and it's completely understandable, it's
Speaker 1: completely legitimate that that would be a move that I
Speaker 1: would make, right that that's now an expectation that I have.
Speaker 1: You know, I will not allow females that I'm related to.
Speaker 1: You will not allow my girlfriend. I will not allow
Speaker 1: them to go through certain areas at night by themselves
Speaker 1: because oh, you might say, well, are they really you know,
Speaker 1: it's something really horrible gonna happen. They're gonna be harassed.
Speaker 1: They're going to have vagrance on the street come up
Speaker 1: to them, say disgusting things to them, demand money from them,
Speaker 1: threatened to grab them. That happens all the time here now,
Speaker 1: So it's top to bottom, folks. It's we read about
Speaker 1: the murders. We hear about the destabilization from the worst
Speaker 1: with the worst crimes, but it filters through all of society.
Speaker 1: This is their openings. Here's what you have to remember.
Speaker 1: They were promising for years to their base, the Democrat promise.
Speaker 1: The central thesis in the Trump era was that Donald
Speaker 1: Trump was a moron who would crash the economy and
Speaker 1: lead us into war, and we would we would all
Speaker 1: be miserable from that, right, and it would be so
Speaker 1: clear he was. It was ridiculous that he had won
Speaker 1: this election against how Wow Clinton. Ridiculous, right, that was
Speaker 1: the central thesis. Well, they were wrong. The economy was booming.
Speaker 1: He did not lead us into wars. He actually had
Speaker 1: a very effective foreign policy. He was right on China
Speaker 1: didn't build the wall, which I'm pretty annoyed about, folks,
Speaker 1: But we'll talk about that another day. Don't tell me,
Speaker 1: Oh he's building it. Buck. Not enough, not enough wall, Well,
Speaker 1: we're just you know, I live in reality, folks. Not
Speaker 1: enough wall, and you know I'm on the president's team.
Speaker 1: Not enough wall and way too much criminal justice reform.
Speaker 1: But other than that, it was a lot of good things.
Speaker 1: But he was so much more successful in those first
Speaker 1: three years than they anticipated, and it just was no
Speaker 1: longer tenable. Even the lunatic libs who were trying to
Speaker 1: they were trying to remember say it was the Obama economy.
Speaker 1: That was the whole story. It was the Obama economy.
Speaker 1: They were just desperate for something because the results were
Speaker 1: so positive. And you and I, people that supported Trump,
Speaker 1: were in a position where we were saying, you know,
Speaker 1: look look at the results, look at the scoreboard. And
Speaker 1: then we turn around and say, Trump got it done.
Speaker 1: And so what do they do? They make us all miserable.
Speaker 1: That's their plan. You're in the Freedom Hud. This is
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. You know what we really
Speaker 1: need right now? We need the legal wisdom and political
Speaker 1: insight of Whoopie Goldberg. Yeah, let's get some of that
Speaker 1: during this crisis. Play thirteen. We sort of felt it
Speaker 1: a little bit when we've seen other sort of riots
Speaker 1: breakout and we've seen them bust out troops, but this
Speaker 1: is different. This feels different. This feels like a planned
Speaker 1: attack against the American people, and it's very specific and
Speaker 1: it's very targeted. The planned attack. I want to be
Speaker 1: very clear, the planned attack. And one of my favorite
Speaker 1: things and Tucker, like, I don't want to want to
Speaker 1: be like doing two of my Joe. Tucker has been
Speaker 1: amazing on his show lately because you know, but he
Speaker 1: has his last ninety days or so, has just been
Speaker 1: in fago put. One of my favorite things he said
Speaker 1: is at Whoopy Goldberg not funny. I don't know why
Speaker 1: we've all I've never heard of say anything funny in
Speaker 1: my life, but we're all told, ah, she's so funny.
Speaker 1: Now she's supposed to be insightful. But the attack that
Speaker 1: she's talking about is federal law enforcement enforcing the law.
Speaker 1: That's not the mobs of lunatics burning things down, attacking,
Speaker 1: attacking strangers, attacking businesses and police, you know, looting Starbucks,
Speaker 1: setting fire to buildings, breaking into drug stores. That's not
Speaker 1: the attack. The attack are the law enforcement officers saying hey,
Speaker 1: stop doing that illegal thing. These people are nuts, They're
Speaker 1: absolutely nuts. And I just want to note notice that
Speaker 1: they're talking now about fascism and the Stazi that Trump
Speaker 1: is deploying. And you had that member of cong I
Speaker 1: think it was Congresswoman Wilson saying that maybe these federal
Speaker 1: agents are the ones that are gonna help Trump stay
Speaker 1: even if he loses. They're saying all this crazy stuff.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile Democrat governors and mayors are like, stay home, shut
Speaker 1: down your business, can't see your friends, can't see your
Speaker 1: family until we say so. And they don't talk about
Speaker 1: tyranny there with the whole COVID nonsense that they're pulling
Speaker 1: right now. Oh, we're gonna move all the metrics. We're
Speaker 1: gonna move all the numbers so that it's it's actually
Speaker 1: just there, say so when we get our lives back.
Speaker 1: It's not based on anything else. That's what Democrats are doing.
Speaker 1: No tyranny there. Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson
Speaker 1: Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart
Speaker 1: Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. We all
Speaker 1: know the case of the mccloskey's in Saint Louis. It
Speaker 1: turned into a major national news story. Husband and wife,
Speaker 1: the mccloskey's, outside of their property in Saint Louis, with
Speaker 1: lawfully owned firearms, telling the mob, or just showing the
Speaker 1: mob that they were willing to defend themselves even after
Speaker 1: threats against their lives and their property. Well, now we
Speaker 1: have the prosecutor in Saint Louis bringing a felony charge,
Speaker 1: which clearly is sending a message to other people who
Speaker 1: might defend their property all across the country defend themselves.
Speaker 1: But she's not the only one who gets to say
Speaker 1: in this. We're very pleased to be joined now by
Speaker 1: the Missouri Attorney General from the state of Missouri, Attorney
Speaker 1: General Eric Schmidt. Mister Schmidt, thank you so much. We
Speaker 1: appreciate you calling in great to be with you so
Speaker 1: you can just tell us where does the case stand
Speaker 1: right now? Charges have been brought, walk us through what
Speaker 1: the charges really are, what the allegation is, and what
Speaker 1: the mccloskey's face. Sure so. Earlier this week, local prosecutor
Speaker 1: Kim Gardner, who has jurisdiction over state charges essentially in
Speaker 1: that jurisdiction in the city of Saint Louis, filed criminal
Speaker 1: charges against bull from mccluskys, and essentially the charges are
Speaker 1: an unlawful use of a weapon, which means they're brandishing
Speaker 1: a you know, a deadly weapon in a threatening manner.
Speaker 1: The problem Kim Gardner has with those charges is that
Speaker 1: the case should have never been brought because of Missouri's
Speaker 1: castle doctrine. And just to kind of take a step
Speaker 1: back and you look at Missouri law. First of all,
Speaker 1: the fundamental right of self defense is well established. It
Speaker 1: really predates our constitution. It's a natural right. The founders
Speaker 1: knew that, which is why the Second Amendment is in
Speaker 1: the Bill of Rights in Missouri in our first constitution
Speaker 1: eighteen twenty that was incorporated in and every other constitution
Speaker 1: we've had, and as recently as twenty fourteen, Missouri voters
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly expanded those Second Amendment rights. And the creature of
Speaker 1: statute is issuing here is the castle doctrine, and Missouri
Speaker 1: has perhaps the most expansive castle doctrine in the country.
Speaker 1: It means that you know, if you're being threatened, as mccluskeys,
Speaker 1: you know, say they were here, you have a right
Speaker 1: to not only defend your life and anyone else's life,
Speaker 1: your family members, lives, but also not just your home,
Speaker 1: your castle, but your property. And so given those facts,
Speaker 1: the statutes are very clear that it's not even an
Speaker 1: affirmative defense to the unlawful use of a weapon charge.
Speaker 1: It means it's not a crime at all if you're
Speaker 1: if you're you know, fall under the castle doctrine, which
Speaker 1: is clear here. So look, this is nothing more than
Speaker 1: a political prosecution. And in a time where you have
Speaker 1: you know, calls to to fund the police and rising
Speaker 1: violent crime rates across the country, including in Saint Louis,
Speaker 1: which recorded has well over one hundred and thirty murders
Speaker 1: already this year, seventy five percent increase this July versus
Speaker 1: last July. This local prosecutor has released inmates charged with
Speaker 1: violent crimes, using COVID as an excuse for people who
Speaker 1: were you know, violent, charged with violent crimes. To target
Speaker 1: law abiding citizens for exercising their fundamental right of self
Speaker 1: defense is outrageous, which is why I felt like I
Speaker 1: needed to stand up do something. We've entered the case
Speaker 1: and asked for the court to dismiss the charge. Right,
Speaker 1: let's let's let's jump into that part of this now.
Speaker 1: We're speaking to the Attorney General for the State of Missouri,
Speaker 1: Eric Schmidt, on about this McCloskey case where the local
Speaker 1: attorney for Saint Louis has brought a charge here, a
Speaker 1: felony charge of unlawful brandishing of weapons. Okay, you are
Speaker 1: weighing in on this as the attorney general for the state.
Speaker 1: What is your position, what are the mechanisms at your disposal,
Speaker 1: and what's happening right now? Sure, so the mccoskeys have
Speaker 1: their own counsel, and you know they'll be defending the mccoskeys.
Speaker 1: But I'm coming in as the attorney general on behalf
Speaker 1: of all Missourians because I'm constitutionally charged not only protecting
Speaker 1: the constitution, but when there's an issue that affects all
Speaker 1: Missourians like this, would I have a right to come
Speaker 1: into a case. And what we're alleging here is that
Speaker 1: if you have a situation where law abiding citizens are
Speaker 1: exercising a fundamental right, the right to self defense, and
Speaker 1: they're being criminally prosecuted for that. If you think about that,
Speaker 1: the government wants to come in and put you in
Speaker 1: jail for four years up to four years if you're
Speaker 1: exercising that right, that could have a chilling effect on
Speaker 1: these constitutionally protected right of self defense that all Missourians enjoy.
Speaker 1: So the specter of this case, you know, in its
Speaker 1: tendency at any point in time, sends a very clear
Speaker 1: message to law abiding citizens that you exercise that right
Speaker 1: of self defense at your own peril. And if this
Speaker 1: prosecutor wants to come in and put you in jail,
Speaker 1: that's what she's going to do. And so you know,
Speaker 1: that's why we're coming in to assert that that you
Speaker 1: can't move forward the prosecution like this that has no
Speaker 1: basis in law. It's a political prosecution. It could have
Speaker 1: a chilling effect on others exercising their constitutional rights as well. Now,
Speaker 1: why do you think that the prosecutor Gardner, and we
Speaker 1: would call it a district attorney here, she's the states
Speaker 1: state's attorney for Saint Louis, right, So why why would
Speaker 1: she offer in that initial statement, why bring a felony charge?
Speaker 1: But even saying the statement, we're open to deferred prosecute
Speaker 1: for this as well, is this just is this a
Speaker 1: prosecutor's gambitt to essentially just get an admission of wrongdoing,
Speaker 1: show what side she's on, and then not actually bring
Speaker 1: this to trial. Why do that? I mean, that seems
Speaker 1: a little bit that that seemed to be quite a
Speaker 1: noteworthy addition to her initial statement. It's a telling common,
Speaker 1: isn't it. It sort of indicates that maybe she doesn't
Speaker 1: believe this is even a crime in the first place,
Speaker 1: which it's not. I mean, the statutes in Missouri are
Speaker 1: very clear that the unlawful use of a weapon charge
Speaker 1: isn't a crime if you're you know, fall under the
Speaker 1: castle doctor, if you're defending yourself, as the mcclows keys
Speaker 1: were in this case. So it has no basis. It's,
Speaker 1: you know, a purely a political prosecution. She has a
Speaker 1: primary in two weeks for her seat, which also enters
Speaker 1: sort of the equation here. And while literally, you know,
Speaker 1: dozens and dozens and dozens of homicides go uncharged in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis, this case got to the top of the staff.
Speaker 1: Um you know is again it's it's just it reeks
Speaker 1: of politics. And look, the reality is people who run
Speaker 1: for office make statements all the time. The difference here
Speaker 1: is this is a prosecutor that's bringing criminal charges against
Speaker 1: law abiding citizens, potentially putting them in jail. She said,
Speaker 1: what she said, but they comes with a four year
Speaker 1: prison signs potentially, Um, that's a very very dangerous road
Speaker 1: to go down. Is it possible, if we're speaking to
Speaker 1: Eric Schmidt, who is the attorney general for the state
Speaker 1: of Missouri, everyone, is it possible if uh, if this
Speaker 1: goes forward and they and the mccloskey's take that they're
Speaker 1: lawyers and they're represented by lawyers, if they take this
Speaker 1: to trial and we're to lose, the governor could pardon them,
Speaker 1: correct under Missouri law. Correct, Although the point has been
Speaker 1: made recently that you know, the governor is up for election,
Speaker 1: um this fall, um, you know, and so look, none
Speaker 1: of these things are certain, which is why we felt
Speaker 1: and I'm glad the governor is you know certain. That's
Speaker 1: Governor Mike Parson, right, he is a Republican, but he's
Speaker 1: upper reelection, as he said, correct, And he's made that statement,
Speaker 1: and I think it's it's good that he's weighed in here.
Speaker 1: But the truth is, my job is to try to
Speaker 1: nip this thing in the butt because as this thing
Speaker 1: moves forward, as we allegend our brief, the specter or
Speaker 1: the the idea that this in a very highly publicized
Speaker 1: case that someone exercising their fundamental right of self defense
Speaker 1: can be prosecuted for. That has a chilling effect on others,
Speaker 1: and that's a legitimate state interest for us to be
Speaker 1: in the case. What do you think needs to be done?
Speaker 1: I want to pivot a little bit too, to another
Speaker 1: component of law enforcement in your state. Saint Louis really
Speaker 1: got on the national radar as when it comes to
Speaker 1: crime and valent crime because of the Mike Brown Mike
Speaker 1: Brown incident which led to the Black Lives Matter movement,
Speaker 1: and we know there was a lot of violence and
Speaker 1: rioting and neighborhoods. I believe it was East Saint Louis.
Speaker 1: What do you think, I mean, if you're continuing to
Speaker 1: work with state law enforcement authorities, what could be done
Speaker 1: to bring that murder rate down in Saint Louis? And
Speaker 1: are you open to working more closely with federal law
Speaker 1: enforcement agencies as President Trump has been pushing for in
Speaker 1: recent weeks. It's a great question, and I think the
Speaker 1: truth of the matter is criminals have been emboldened for
Speaker 1: a variety of reasons. You know, if you want to
Speaker 1: take it from a prosecutor's perspective or local prosecutor if
Speaker 1: they don't believe there any consequences to their actions. I mean,
Speaker 1: the city of Saint Louis, there's over three hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty carjackings every year. That's you know, one a day
Speaker 1: a carjacking where someone's being terrorized and maybe killed in
Speaker 1: the process, and a grandfather who's lived in a neighborhood
Speaker 1: his whole life, you know, having to go through that.
Speaker 1: You've got children being killed, mothers and father's loss. It's
Speaker 1: reached epidemic like levels. And if a prosecutor doesn't show
Speaker 1: willingness to take on violent crime of these series, it's
Speaker 1: going to embolden criminals. And that's sort of what we're
Speaker 1: seeing from perspective as Attorney General. We actually in Kansas City,
Speaker 1: Operation Legend is moving forward. The governor had spoken to
Speaker 1: the President about this and the Attorney General, William barr Is,
Speaker 1: authorized federal law enforcement officers to work on violent crime
Speaker 1: in the Kansas City or Kansas City has over one
Speaker 1: hundred murders this year. It's on pace for a record
Speaker 1: number this year. So you're seeing this across the country.
Speaker 1: In Missouri is you know, no different. So I think
Speaker 1: at that level of cooperation is important for my perspective
Speaker 1: as AG. Very early on in my term, I reached
Speaker 1: out to the US attorney in both the Saint Luis
Speaker 1: area in Kansas City are and we've done something very
Speaker 1: unique here. We've we have unprecedented level of cooperation. We
Speaker 1: have lawyer because we don't local prosecutors don't really ask
Speaker 1: us to help in prosecuting violent crime. I guess because
Speaker 1: we have a bit of a different worldview, we work
Speaker 1: with those US attorneys. So I have lawyers from my
Speaker 1: office who've been cross deputized as assistant US attorneys so
Speaker 1: they can help prosecute violent crime in federal court with
Speaker 1: a where the penalties are often stiffer. And we've got
Speaker 1: some cooperation with those US attorneys. So you know, we've
Speaker 1: had well over a couple hundred of charges and indictments
Speaker 1: from that. I can I ask you about that because
Speaker 1: I've been trying to and we're speaking to uh sorry,
Speaker 1: mister Attorney General of Missouri. I'm getting so much worthwhile
Speaker 1: information here that I'm bouncing around a little bit. But
Speaker 1: I've been telling folks from when I worked at the
Speaker 1: NYPD Intelligence Division on loan from the CIA, which is
Speaker 1: a federal intelligence organization everybody knows. But when I was
Speaker 1: at the NYPD on loan from the CIA and what
Speaker 1: was called a hide a high intensity drug trafficking area
Speaker 1: that was set up with d EA, FBI, Customs, and
Speaker 1: Border you name. We had every we had US marshals,
Speaker 1: everybody co located and working together on different issues. So
Speaker 1: when I hear all this pushback on exactly what you're
Speaker 1: you're talking about, they say, well, the federal government doesn't
Speaker 1: have a role in these kinds of crimes. Just just
Speaker 1: give people a sense of when you're when you have
Speaker 1: cross deputized people from your state state Attorney's General office
Speaker 1: with these other federal agencies, what are the kind of
Speaker 1: crimes that come under their purview? Because I think people think, oh,
Speaker 1: federal crime, it must be you know, major drug trafficking. Terrorism.
Speaker 1: There's a lot more than that, isn't There? There are?
Speaker 1: I mean, I will tell you a lot of the
Speaker 1: because you're you're, you know, exactly on the point here.
Speaker 1: Jurisdiction things are different, and the state you know, is
Speaker 1: generally prosecuting homicides and things like that, but um, you know,
Speaker 1: the FEDS can go after carjackings, and so we work
Speaker 1: on those kinds of cases. We also have, um I'll
Speaker 1: tell you the lion's share of felon in possession of firearms.
Speaker 1: So you get people who are causing a lot of
Speaker 1: problems in neighborhoods, you get them off the streets, and
Speaker 1: so that's been a lion's share of the prosecutions and
Speaker 1: so m you know, we felt like it was a
Speaker 1: an important partnership to have that this is an all
Speaker 1: hands on deck moment. That these sort of um turf
Speaker 1: battles that maybe get fought o their places, there's no
Speaker 1: room for that right now. I mean, you've got spiking,
Speaker 1: violent crime, racing. You look and you see what's happening
Speaker 1: on the news every night, just this lawlessness. It's not
Speaker 1: People have a have a right to be safe, and
Speaker 1: people are being terrorized in their communities and it's wrong.
Speaker 1: So I think we all need to kind of put
Speaker 1: all those things aside and work together. So on one hand,
Speaker 1: you know, we're working as closely as we possibly can.
Speaker 1: I think Missouri's partnership with you at the US Attorney's
Speaker 1: Office and all those federal agencies you mentioned, the FBI, DA,
Speaker 1: US Marshals, that's a great level of cooperation. What we're
Speaker 1: not seeing is these local prosecutors sometimes, like Ken Gardner,
Speaker 1: they're not interested in that. They have their own agenda,
Speaker 1: they're not interested in prosecuting violent crime, and so we
Speaker 1: kind of have to work around that. Eric Schmidt, Attorney
Speaker 1: General of Missouri, Sir, thank you so much for joining
Speaker 1: us and sharing your expertise, and good luck to you.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Buck going to be with him. You're in
Speaker 1: the freedom of mind. This is the Buck Sex and
Speaker 1: Show podcast. Their permanent shutdown was really never an option
Speaker 1: in terms of what we're doing right now. This would
Speaker 1: be completely unsustainable, produce stabilitating economic fallback, and lead to
Speaker 1: catastrophic public health consequences. There are consequences to shutdowns, and
Speaker 1: we've saved potentially millions of lives by doing the initial shutdown.
Speaker 1: But now we're very aware of this disease. We understand
Speaker 1: the disease to a large extent. Nobody's going to maybe
Speaker 1: ever fully understand it. But we'll end up with a cure,
Speaker 1: We'll end up with therapeutics, we'll end up with a
Speaker 1: vaccine very soon. All three. We're instead asking Americans to
Speaker 1: use masks, socially distanced and employ vigorous hygiene wash your
Speaker 1: hands every chance you get well sheltering high risk populations.
Speaker 1: We are imploring young Americans to avoid packed bars and
Speaker 1: other crowded indoor gatherings. Be safe. The President gave a
Speaker 1: COVID press conference. Right he's back to doing these briefings.
Speaker 1: I don't know how long he's going to continue. I'm
Speaker 1: very happy that he did, because he established some really
Speaker 1: important context for all the discussions we're having about what
Speaker 1: do we do now? Where are we now? Now? I
Speaker 1: just checked the CDC website. Here we are. It's been
Speaker 1: almost three weeks since I last talked you about this,
Speaker 1: and I said, I'm just I said, I told you
Speaker 1: that if it turned out that there was a huge
Speaker 1: spike in debts similar to what we saw in the
Speaker 1: March April time frame, I would come on the show
Speaker 1: when I would tell you, Okay, you know, I must
Speaker 1: have missed something, or we got to revisit what's going
Speaker 1: on here, or well we had In the last twenty
Speaker 1: four hours, the CDC recorded fifty seven thousand, seven hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy seven cases, four hundred and seventy three new deaths. Now,
Speaker 1: that's a lot of people dying from as from a disease.
Speaker 1: Right now, I get that, but it is nowhere near
Speaker 1: where we were. It's down seventy five percent. It's what
Speaker 1: the President said, it is breafing down seventy five percent.
Speaker 1: And we've had all of these states that are reopened
Speaker 1: and you still have a death rate that's down seventy
Speaker 1: five percent. Why is that right? We're being told, Oh, no,
Speaker 1: it's because we didn't All this bad stuff is happening
Speaker 1: because we didn't mask up enough. We didn't wear enough masks.
Speaker 1: Oh well, you know, it turns out the president before
Speaker 1: I even get into the mask issue, the President's even
Speaker 1: saying now, he's like, look, you know, if he can
Speaker 1: write circumstances, wear a mask. Play clip two. We're asking
Speaker 1: everybody that when you are not able to socially distanced,
Speaker 1: wear a mask, get a mask. Whether you like to
Speaker 1: mask or not, they have an impact. They'll have an effect,
Speaker 1: and we need everything we can get. Saying, whether you
Speaker 1: like it or not, it'll have an impact. I'm not
Speaker 1: as certain as the President is that it will have
Speaker 1: an impact. But I also I have I've got masks.
Speaker 1: I've got them by my front door. I've got rubber gloves,
Speaker 1: I've got a mask. You know, I'm you know, I'm
Speaker 1: trying to play by the rules here as much as
Speaker 1: I can, and I really do it because in New
Speaker 1: York everyone so and I don't do it outside, so
Speaker 1: that's that's a non starter. I'm not wearing a mask outside.
Speaker 1: Unless I'm trying to sneak into some of the BLM
Speaker 1: protests and not have them punch me in the face,
Speaker 1: then a mask is great. But I don't wear a
Speaker 1: mask outside. I wear a mask going to go indoors
Speaker 1: to places or when I'm around other people who are
Speaker 1: going to be freaked out, which in New York if
Speaker 1: you're don't wear a mask right now, in New York,
Speaker 1: people look at you like you're walking around, you know, naked,
Speaker 1: smothered in grape jelly or something. I mean, they look
Speaker 1: at you like, what the heck are you doing? It?
Speaker 1: Is you? You know? New York is like mask Central.
Speaker 1: You got to wear a mask or else people, I
Speaker 1: don't do it outside. And to that, I just say,
Speaker 1: I'm within the guidance of President saying if you can't
Speaker 1: socially distance, so I socially distance. No one is going
Speaker 1: to get First of all, I don't have the virus. Okay.
Speaker 1: Second of all, no one's going to get the virus
Speaker 1: from walking past me outside in open air. If they could,
Speaker 1: we would have had an infection rate that was you know,
Speaker 1: ninety percent of the country. Anybody who had gone outside
Speaker 1: would already have this thing in the last six months. Anybody, Okay,
Speaker 1: he can't get the virus that way. We know you're
Speaker 1: not going to get the virus that way. So now
Speaker 1: we should look at how how do people get this virus.
Speaker 1: And I've talked to you about intra familial and no
Speaker 1: soacomeal fun word to use. People are gonn know socomeal,
Speaker 1: what is that? There's a coomeo means intra hospital transmission.
Speaker 1: And remember that hospital infections, hospital acquired infections kill an
Speaker 1: average of eighty to one hundred thousand people a year
Speaker 1: in the United States every year. That's before the pandemic.
Speaker 1: So you want to be really careful in hospitals. You
Speaker 1: have a lot of people with compromise immune systems, and
Speaker 1: obviously a concentration of a lot of diseases, which is
Speaker 1: why again when Trump went to Walter Reid wearing a mask,
Speaker 1: I get it. You know, there are places where additional
Speaker 1: precautions make sense. But Trump is not this, you know,
Speaker 1: anti mask a zealot. The left pretendens he is. But
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter where the truth is. We all know
Speaker 1: what the agenda is. Folks. Thanks for listening to the
Speaker 1: Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts,
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Provide
Speaker 1: an update on our response to the China virus and
Speaker 1: what my administration is doing to get the outbreak in
Speaker 1: the Sun Belt under control. Seems largely in Sun Belt,
Speaker 1: but could be spreading. All Trump has to do is
Speaker 1: remind people that this virus originated in China and that
Speaker 1: the global spread of it is due in no small
Speaker 1: part to the dishonesty, the cover up, the recklessness of
Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party. All he has to do is
Speaker 1: bring that up, which is just a fact, and liberals
Speaker 1: lose their minds? Right, Why is that? Shouldn't we all
Speaker 1: be united against the Chinese Communist Party is putting has
Speaker 1: put a million wagers in concentration camps. The Chinese Communist
Speaker 1: Party is engaged in the greatest theft of trade, secrets,
Speaker 1: intellectual property, and with that wealth, right, we are increasing
Speaker 1: in information economy. Info is wealth that they are stealing
Speaker 1: from the rest of the world, most notably from US constantly.
Speaker 1: They run an oppressive totalitarian regime. They do not allow
Speaker 1: free speech, they do not care about human rights, and
Speaker 1: somehow we can't even count on Libs to be united
Speaker 1: with their fellow Americans US against China. No, they don't
Speaker 1: want it to be blamed on China. They want the
Speaker 1: whole COVID situation to be placed at the foot of
Speaker 1: the White House and on Donald Trump's shoulders. More specifically,
Speaker 1: it's all his fault because they think that is the
Speaker 1: single greatest way to advocate for Joe Biden to become
Speaker 1: the next president of United States. That's what they really
Speaker 1: that's what they really truly believe. That is what their
Speaker 1: thought process is on all of this stuff. And Nancy
Speaker 1: Pelosi makes this explicit it she said, Guy ziph yeah,
Speaker 1: says is it trumps. Let's let's call it the Trump virus.
Speaker 1: She calls it the friggin Trump virus. Blake clip ten.
Speaker 1: But I think with the President's comments today, he recognized
Speaker 1: the mistakes that he has made by now embracing mask wearing,
Speaker 1: and the recognition this is not a hoax. It is
Speaker 1: a pandemic that has gotten worse before it will get
Speaker 1: better because it is an action. And in fact, clearly
Speaker 1: it is the Trump virus, that Trump virus, that's what
Speaker 1: she calls it. I think we should call the Pelosi
Speaker 1: virus because this stupidity, the political stupidity that has gripped
Speaker 1: this nation now, that does not have a realistic view
Speaker 1: of a COVID nineteen pandemic, that supports these idiot protesters
Speaker 1: running all over the streets, throwing rocks at and all.
Speaker 1: This that's a virus of the brain. We could perhaps
Speaker 1: call that brain virus, also known as Trump derangement syndrome,
Speaker 1: the Pelosi virus, right, the Pelosi virus. I think that's
Speaker 1: a fair way to describe it. And what is if
Speaker 1: I'm going to diagnose the Pelosi virus, it is to
Speaker 1: be a lib who sees the world through this bizarre
Speaker 1: lens of everything is Trump's fault and everything going wrong
Speaker 1: would be made better if you put the quasi well,
Speaker 1: let's just say too old for the job. Joe Biden
Speaker 1: in the role of commander in chief and the most
Speaker 1: powerful job in the world, and cops aren't the good guys.
Speaker 1: Cops are the bad guys. I mean, you go down
Speaker 1: the whole list. You know, we need a green new deal,
Speaker 1: we need more socialism. That's the Pelosi virus. It's a
Speaker 1: brain virus, takes over your mind, and it doesn't make
Speaker 1: anything better. In fact, it makes everything markedly worse. But
Speaker 1: as I've been saying, and as you know, the single
Speaker 1: most important takeaway that the Democrats want anyone to have
Speaker 1: during all this is the blame, the mountains of blame
Speaker 1: that they are putting on top of the Trump administration
Speaker 1: with this, even though as we know, it is the
Speaker 1: China virus, and it comes from China, and it is
Speaker 1: hurting the entire world, and the US response to this
Speaker 1: has not been that bad, although if you took New
Speaker 1: York and New Jersey out of the equation, the US
Speaker 1: response to this virus has been incredible. Actually, it's two
Speaker 1: Democrats states, one of which I am currently sitting in,
Speaker 1: that are the reason that we've had a you know,
Speaker 1: a response to this virus that isn't much better than
Speaker 1: effectively all of the major meaning large European countries. You know,
Speaker 1: Germany might be on a per capita basis right alongside
Speaker 1: US but we would be far better than Italy, France, Germany,
Speaker 1: the UK, you name it, if it wasn't for New
Speaker 1: York and New Jersey, which got hit so badly in
Speaker 1: the early days of this. I am frustrated right now
Speaker 1: because I think what's going to happen is now. Now
Speaker 1: Trump has relented a bit and said, look, wear masks
Speaker 1: under certain circumstances in certain times, and they're going to
Speaker 1: take that as oh he's it's such a big backtracking.
Speaker 1: And look what he's doing now. We're seeing the curve
Speaker 1: is already bending in these other in these states, and
Speaker 1: it's not has nothing to do with enhanced restrictions and lockdowns.
Speaker 1: The curve is bending downward because this is what happens
Speaker 1: with this virus. The susceptible population gets infected quickly. If younger,
Speaker 1: healthier people get infected, they clear the virus. As long
Speaker 1: as you can protect people with compromise immune systems and
Speaker 1: in the high risk age group, you will have a
Speaker 1: relatively low mortality even with a very high degree of spread.
Speaker 1: This was always Look Sweden did this, and Sweden never
Speaker 1: locked As we know, you could always go to restaurants,
Speaker 1: you could always go to cafes. Sweden took this approach
Speaker 1: and they are in the middle of the pack in Europe,
Speaker 1: and that includes countries where mask wearing became a religion
Speaker 1: and lockdown became extreme. You know, I'm seeing there's a spy.
Speaker 1: Australia has had very severe COVID nineteen lockdown at different points,
Speaker 1: and Australia is now having a surgeon cases, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: this is just we like to believe that we can
Speaker 1: control this, or people some people like to believe that
Speaker 1: we can control this, and at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: we just we can't. We can try to manage the flow,
Speaker 1: but we cannot defeat. We cannot stop the disease in
Speaker 1: its tracks with our actions. That is a lie. It's
Speaker 1: a lie. It's just not true. And then that brings
Speaker 1: me also to the fight over schools. The fact that
Speaker 1: Democrats are in favor of keeping kids out of schools
Speaker 1: is the clearest example we've had of the politicization of
Speaker 1: this issue, the removal of science from the equation and
Speaker 1: the enhancement of politics as the primary method of making
Speaker 1: a determination. Since we had the Black Lives Matter protests
Speaker 1: out in the streets and we were being told by
Speaker 1: public health authorities who had been very vocal for months
Speaker 1: about how we all need to lock down and social distance. Well,
Speaker 1: but this is like really important because we like have
Speaker 1: to defeat racism. So it's like really important we do
Speaker 1: this right now, even if it means people spread the virus,
Speaker 1: because racism is totally going to be defeated by these yelling,
Speaker 1: shrieking morons gathered by the thousands all over the country, right,
Speaker 1: that's really going to make everything better. So now we
Speaker 1: have the school issue, where once again there's no science
Speaker 1: based argument here. The argument is really just a question
Speaker 1: of what's going to be politically damaging for Republicans, for Trump,
Speaker 1: and what do Democrats think they can get away with.
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the mayor of New York, the largest
Speaker 1: school system in the country. Public school system is of
Speaker 1: course in New York. Here's the mayor saying that he's
Speaker 1: got a clear schedule in mind for when we can
Speaker 1: go back to five day a week schools. Play clip eight.
Speaker 1: Seventy five percent of New York City public school parents
Speaker 1: want our kids back in school. They agree with your
Speaker 1: point that you're going to learn much better in school,
Speaker 1: that the kids need that for their development. And their future.
Speaker 1: Everyone cares about safety and health. So the way I
Speaker 1: look at is look right now, New York City has
Speaker 1: had extraordinary success after going through hell in March and April,
Speaker 1: the people a city really fought back against this disease.
Speaker 1: They've been very disciplined the face coverings of social distancing.
Speaker 1: We've been really tough in the restrictions we've had in place,
Speaker 1: and now consistently our health indicators show that we would
Speaker 1: be in a position to open up school. But we're
Speaker 1: going to make that judgment when we get right up
Speaker 1: on the beginning of school in September. That's when we'll
Speaker 1: make the final decision. The day we get to the
Speaker 1: vaccine is the day that will really go to full
Speaker 1: five day a week normal instruction in our schools. This
Speaker 1: is exactly what we were told and what we believe
Speaker 1: there was agreement on from the beginning. We were told
Speaker 1: that there would not be a lockdown until vaccine approach
Speaker 1: to this virus. That's what we were led to believe.
Speaker 1: And now you have people like Deblasio straight up saying
Speaker 1: school lockdown or least real school does not happen again
Speaker 1: until there's a vaccine. They're saying it out loud. Now
Speaker 1: now it's all, oh, no, we have to keep doing
Speaker 1: this until there's a vaccine. Still can't go to the
Speaker 1: gym in New York, Still can't dine indoors in New York,
Speaker 1: as well as a lot of other places. I know
Speaker 1: that Texas, Florida, Arizona, California. Those you're listening in those states,
Speaker 1: you've got all. You got your own prop Georgia. You've
Speaker 1: got a rough situation happening in all those states now
Speaker 1: with COVID nineteen, with the restrictions, as well as from
Speaker 1: the surge in cases. Although we're not seeing the big stir,
Speaker 1: Why aren't we seeing the big And I have a
Speaker 1: theory that I keep promoting to you as to why
Speaker 1: we don't see a big surgeon fatalities from the virus.
Speaker 1: What does the left say, Oh, we didn't mask enough. Well,
Speaker 1: hold on, we have all these new cases. Why hasn't
Speaker 1: the mortality rates spiked. Well, I've told you it's because younger,
Speaker 1: healthier people who clear the virus are getting this, and
Speaker 1: there's also greater immunity in the population than people initially
Speaker 1: realized that. As long as we're protecting seniors and people
Speaker 1: who are at risk. You're gonna have low mortality even
Speaker 1: with high spread. Now what a Democrats say, look it down,
Speaker 1: wear a mask that'll save us all. Really won't, but
Speaker 1: they say, they say this anyway, even though doctor foul,
Speaker 1: we haven't heard from a fouch today. Where is the fouch?
Speaker 1: Oh fouci, oh fauci? Where four art thou fouci? I
Speaker 1: know wherefore means why not where? But what doesn't matter?
Speaker 1: He is the fouch. For those of you who missed them, say, look,
Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta get the kids back into school.
Speaker 1: You gotta, you know, take those little kids. You gotta say, hey,
Speaker 1: wash your hands, keep a distance. No, no, you know,
Speaker 1: don't don't. Don't rub your nose and touch somebody else
Speaker 1: with it or whatever. That's gross, unsanitary, also could spread
Speaker 1: a virus. You don't want to do that. Use a tissue,
Speaker 1: you know, don't be don't be a little barbarian um.
Speaker 1: Here's the fouch play clip nine. Now, in general, when
Speaker 1: I think about that, I want to take a forty
Speaker 1: thousand foot look and say, as a fundamental principle, I
Speaker 1: do agree that we should try as best as we
Speaker 1: possibly can to get the children back to school. Because
Speaker 1: of the well documented, you know, secondary downstream ripple effects
Speaker 1: that are negative, particularly on parents and on the children
Speaker 1: when you keep the bead at school. Gotta get the
Speaker 1: kids back to school, that's right. We do have to
Speaker 1: get the kids back to school, We really do. We've
Speaker 1: got to get them back into school. But Democrats want
Speaker 1: to slow roll at why. We all know why, we
Speaker 1: all know what's going on here, we all understand what
Speaker 1: the stakes are. And that's that's why Pelosi saying what
Speaker 1: she has been saying, she's just it's it's a Trump virus.
Speaker 1: At Trump is like he's Trump is the reason everyone's dying.
Speaker 1: That's what she says. That's what she says. She actually
Speaker 1: blames him for death. Pelosi is blaming the president for
Speaker 1: causing death. Play ten well. I think with the president's
Speaker 1: comments today, he recognized the mistakes that he has made
Speaker 1: by now embracing mask wearing, and the recognition this is
Speaker 1: not a hoax. It is a pandemic that has gotten
Speaker 1: worse before it will get better because it is an
Speaker 1: action and in fact, clearly it is the Trump virus,
Speaker 1: the Trump virus. No, I think we should call it
Speaker 1: the Pelosi virus. I don't think we should let Nancy
Speaker 1: Chardonnay socialist Nancy get away with this nonsense. Enough is enough,
Speaker 1: you're in the freedom. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Look,
Speaker 1: we'll see where this ends up. We still don't know
Speaker 1: the details of this initial proposal, but as it's written
Speaker 1: to my right now, I'm not only a no, I'm
Speaker 1: a hell no. And sadly I think this is envisioned
Speaker 1: as an opening gambit. Everyone expects the Democrats to come
Speaker 1: back with a huge wish list of spending and this
Speaker 1: is the swamp and a feeding frenzy. Everybody's lobbyist has
Speaker 1: their hand out saying well, look, if you're spending trillions
Speaker 1: of dollars, I want to get some. And it's not right.
Speaker 1: It's it is. When we've got over twenty percent of
Speaker 1: the working population in this country sitting at home without
Speaker 1: a job, our focus should be on getting You know,
Speaker 1: just six months ago we were in an historic economic boom,
Speaker 1: wit the lowest unemployment in fifty years, and due to
Speaker 1: this pandemic that escape from communist China due to their
Speaker 1: cover up, forty million Americans are hurting right now. We
Speaker 1: need to have our priority getting them back to work
Speaker 1: and getting them able to provide for their families. Ted
Speaker 1: Cruiz is right, we got to stop this. Uncle Sam
Speaker 1: just writes, everybody checks mentality. We got to get everybody
Speaker 1: up and going and working again. I mean, I haven't
Speaker 1: taken a day off, and I look, I'm fortunate to
Speaker 1: have a job, and I get that, and I am
Speaker 1: thankful for it. But I mean, you know, there are
Speaker 1: people who have been continuing on with their work every day.
Speaker 1: I mean, I haven't taken a day off since the
Speaker 1: pandemic started, and I'm looking around that I'm thinking there
Speaker 1: are a lot of people that have continued essential workers,
Speaker 1: a lot of people that have continued doing what they do,
Speaker 1: or they're working from home, and they're even more comfortable.
Speaker 1: They like it even more, it's even better for them.
Speaker 1: But regardless, we gotta get back to work as a country,
Speaker 1: this has to happen. We don't. We don't sustain. We
Speaker 1: cannot sustain what's going on right now with the trillions
Speaker 1: and trillions of dollars that we're spending. If it were possible,
Speaker 1: I just would would tell you to work through this
Speaker 1: thought experiment with me. If it were possible to do this,
Speaker 1: why wouldn't we just have everyone stay home and the
Speaker 1: government just keeps writing checks. The government just keeps sending
Speaker 1: you it. And why make it only six hundred dollars
Speaker 1: of unemployment insurance? Why not a cool Why not a
Speaker 1: grand al? Why not a thousand dollars? Why not ten grand?
Speaker 1: I mean, as much as producer Mark even loves this show,
Speaker 1: if he could stay home, well he's already home, But
Speaker 1: if he could stay home and not do any work
Speaker 1: and make ten grand a week, I would have to
Speaker 1: really ask him, very very nicely to keep doing his
Speaker 1: job anyway. That would be hard. I would do whatever
Speaker 1: I could to make you fire me. Here you go.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, ten grand a weeks a lot of money, buddy,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I couldn't. I wouldn't even
Speaker 1: be able to be mad at you. So you know,
Speaker 1: at some boy, and see, at some point we understand
Speaker 1: that there's a clear limit to what we can spend,
Speaker 1: and that there are there are downsides to this, and
Speaker 1: there are there are consequences to this. It's not just oh,
Speaker 1: we do this and everything is going to be fine.
Speaker 1: So I think that's very important for everyone to see.
Speaker 1: Ted Cruze understands this, and we've got to get back
Speaker 1: to work. And he also said in a sound bite
Speaker 1: very similar to this, that we all know right that
Speaker 1: after this is what we're all saying on the right,
Speaker 1: everyone's paying attention, the problems get much less. If Biden wins.
Speaker 1: The day after he wins, then we can have a
Speaker 1: Then you'll see the beginnings of some reasonable that it's
Speaker 1: not entirely some reasonableness when it comes to the economy
Speaker 1: and spending and getting people back to work. Oh and
Speaker 1: then a whole lot of socialism as well. But but
Speaker 1: at least they'll say, yeah, we can beat this virus. Well,
Speaker 1: we'll be able to defeat this thing together now now
Speaker 1: that old man Biden's calling the shots, which is a
Speaker 1: terrifying thought saying. For listening to The Busson Show podcasts,
Speaker 1: remember to subscribe on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio app, or
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Our buddy Rob Smith is
Speaker 1: in the house now. He is the author of a
Speaker 1: new book, Always a Soldier, which you should check out
Speaker 1: on Amazon if you have not already. He's a contributor
Speaker 1: to the first and you can follow him at Rob
Speaker 1: Smith online. Mister Rob, good to have you, always good
Speaker 1: to be here. Bob thank you. So, so let's let's
Speaker 1: jump into this, shall we. BLM is a movement that's
Speaker 1: been around for a few years. We've been talking today
Speaker 1: on the show extensively about what's going on in Chicago, Portland, Seattle,
Speaker 1: violence on the streets, and here in New York City
Speaker 1: crime is rising. And I've been saying, what exactly has
Speaker 1: BLM accomplished up to this point? And I would say,
Speaker 1: all the things you could point to really would be negative.
Speaker 1: What is the movement? I mean, and therefore not really accomplishments, right,
Speaker 1: But what is the movement as it stands today? What
Speaker 1: has BLM become? Rob Well, I think that you have
Speaker 1: to understand that Black Lives Matter BLM at this point
Speaker 1: is and is a corporation. It's a business. This is
Speaker 1: an organization, right, So this is something that has generated
Speaker 1: untold amounts of money. It's almost like this grift where
Speaker 1: they got I think Bank of America gave them a
Speaker 1: billion dollars. They're getting hundreds of millions of dollars from
Speaker 1: all of these corporations because they have managed to kind
Speaker 1: of define and brand blackness, right, So what it is
Speaker 1: accomplishing is basically a whole lot of chaos on the streets.
Speaker 1: They're definitely accomplishing getting a lot of angry potential Democratic
Speaker 1: voters riled up. And it is accomplished making their founders
Speaker 1: in the vast majority of the infrastructure of people that
Speaker 1: are fundraising them for them very very very very very wealthy.
Speaker 1: Now what they've accomplished for the average black American on
Speaker 1: the street, I have no clue, you know where I'm
Speaker 1: at right now. In we we have protesters and they
Speaker 1: come out, they come out every single night. Are not
Speaker 1: entirely sure what they're protesting for or about. They're very angry,
Speaker 1: they're very sad, and a little emotionally disturbed. And not
Speaker 1: to tell you so, one of the protesters came into
Speaker 1: the neighborhood that I was in. There were there were
Speaker 1: a big group and they were very confrontational with people black, white,
Speaker 1: Latino whatever that were just enjoying their evening, and they
Speaker 1: were so controversial and it's so confrontational and so sort
Speaker 1: of emotional about it. I saw this this young black
Speaker 1: girl just screaming and crying, and on one hand, I
Speaker 1: have a lot of empathy for that, but on the
Speaker 1: other hand, I have a lot of anger because it's
Speaker 1: so cynical among the puppet masters of the left, and
Speaker 1: this is what they do. They exploit black pain, suffering,
Speaker 1: feelings of hopelessness for votes. It's it's actually very despicable, Buck,
Speaker 1: and I don't think that it's a bad thing to
Speaker 1: really speak out against that. And they're certainly not hoping
Speaker 1: the black family, because we can go on the Black
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter website. They're one of their major goals
Speaker 1: is to dismantle the structure of the nuclear family. And
Speaker 1: we all know that African Americans, like all Americans, are
Speaker 1: vastly more likely to become wealthy, successful winners, and life
Speaker 1: when they come from a two parent household. So what
Speaker 1: dismantling the two parent family structure is doing for Black Americans,
Speaker 1: I have no idea, but like I said, it's get
Speaker 1: a lot of people wealthy. It's making a lot of
Speaker 1: people rich. And as always, when it comes to how
Speaker 1: the left uses African Americans, it's the ones on the
Speaker 1: street that are suffering them. By the way, BLM is
Speaker 1: not doing anything about violence in Chicago, They're certainly not
Speaker 1: doing anything about that. They're certainly not doing anything about
Speaker 1: violence in the communities that are plagued by this stuff
Speaker 1: as they seek to defund the police. So look as
Speaker 1: it stands right now, as a movement, organization, corporation, whatever
Speaker 1: you want to call it, I think it's something that
Speaker 1: is destructive and I don't allow them to define my blackness.
Speaker 1: So I'm not going to be afraid to say that.
Speaker 1: We're speaking to Rob Smith, author and veteran author of
Speaker 1: Always a Soldier and contributor to the First So Rob,
Speaker 1: as a as a member of the black community, you
Speaker 1: I'm going to assume have conversations with other people in
Speaker 1: this country who are black, and there's probably a willingness
Speaker 1: or or an exchange of ideas that you can engage
Speaker 1: in where you know, because you can speak from that perspective,
Speaker 1: whereas I can't. And I just wonder, do you really
Speaker 1: when you're speaking to individuals who are black and who
Speaker 1: do believe in this movement or who do think that
Speaker 1: this is all for the good? Do they believe things
Speaker 1: like when Lebron James tweeted out that black people are
Speaker 1: literally being hunted every time they leave their homes. Do
Speaker 1: they believe that or do they understand or understand these things?
Speaker 1: The movement slogans as exaggerations meant to get people mobilized,
Speaker 1: but they don't really take it literally. Mean when you're
Speaker 1: talking about a young a young black woman crying, for example,
Speaker 1: while confronting people and screaming about BLM stuff, it makes
Speaker 1: me wonder, what do what do members of the black
Speaker 1: community that adhere to this movement ideology? What do they
Speaker 1: really believe? You know? How much of a conversation. So
Speaker 1: I was having a conversation. I was in Minneapolis about
Speaker 1: a month ago for a go funding. We raised so
Speaker 1: much money to help rebuild Minneapolis, and I'll be going
Speaker 1: there next month to deliver those checks to those small
Speaker 1: business owners. But I was at the George Floyd Memorial
Speaker 1: and I spoke with the young black man just off
Speaker 1: the cup. You didn't know who I was, and I
Speaker 1: was conservative, didn't really care. We were just talking as
Speaker 1: basically two men. And what struck me was when we
Speaker 1: started talking about that stuff. And I don't get very
Speaker 1: confrontational these conversations. To me, it's more of a exchange
Speaker 1: of ideas, right, So he really believed this stuff, and
Speaker 1: he really believed that as a black man, you know,
Speaker 1: the police are out to get me. And not only that,
Speaker 1: but this stuffarts affecting how people see the world in general, right,
Speaker 1: because we moved from the BLM stuff and we just
Speaker 1: started talking about entrepreneurship because I believe in Buck. You
Speaker 1: and I have had these conversations and I thank you
Speaker 1: for leading me in the right direction and some of
Speaker 1: these conversations. But entrepreneurship is the way for all of us,
Speaker 1: black white, with teenager doesn't matter, I think, to build well,
Speaker 1: to become successful. And when I tried to talk to
Speaker 1: this this young black man about this, it's like every
Speaker 1: single thing that I said. When I said you can't,
Speaker 1: he would tell me why he couldn't write. And so
Speaker 1: it was just this back and forth and back and forth,
Speaker 1: and by the end of I think it was a
Speaker 1: forty minute conversation at the George Floyd Memorial. It was
Speaker 1: hot out there that day. I think that we were
Speaker 1: both offset and it took that long just to break
Speaker 1: down these middle barriers up here that told him that
Speaker 1: no matter what he does, because he's black in America,
Speaker 1: he's going to be a professional victim. He's going to
Speaker 1: be hunted, he'll never be successful. Now, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to sit here and say that it is not harder
Speaker 1: for some people than others, because that's not true. I
Speaker 1: haven't had the easiest world myself, but I think it's
Speaker 1: a mentality mindset. And one of the most destructive things
Speaker 1: about BLM and a lot of different movements like that
Speaker 1: is that they seek to encourage a mindset of hopelessness
Speaker 1: in people, and the the only sort of way out
Speaker 1: of that hopelessness is to keep us somehow where we
Speaker 1: will take care of you, We will take all of
Speaker 1: this on for you, but just march with our slogan,
Speaker 1: just donate to our causes. It's that's a destructive thing
Speaker 1: because you're taking away agency from people. Rob is there
Speaker 1: a political strategy point of view? Let's look at it
Speaker 1: that way. Do you think that there's a way that
Speaker 1: President Trump? People forget that over a million Black Americans
Speaker 1: voted for Donald Trump in the last election, right? And
Speaker 1: I think that that comes up again when you see
Speaker 1: Jamille Hill say in a tweet a well known ESPN
Speaker 1: and now I guess political commentator, sports commentator, now political
Speaker 1: that if you vote for Trump, you're racist. There's there's
Speaker 1: no wiggle room, right that. I think that was the tweet.
Speaker 1: We've heard this before from other people, but it's coming
Speaker 1: back again. So it's not I disagree on policy, it's
Speaker 1: if you vote for Trump, you're racist. That's what's being
Speaker 1: said now. That would be news to the million plus
Speaker 1: Black Americans who voted for him, as well as the
Speaker 1: percentage of a Latino population that voted for Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. Is there, Oh, you know,
Speaker 1: we've always had as conservative as this idea that if
Speaker 1: only the messaging could get directly to the black community
Speaker 1: about how all Americans want to see as much success,
Speaker 1: as much personal agency, autonomy and prosperity and happiness quite
Speaker 1: honestly as possible within the black community, that there would
Speaker 1: be ways that Trump and conservatives Trump now and conservatives
Speaker 1: could gain more support politically in the black community. Is
Speaker 1: that worth the president doing right now? Or is it,
Speaker 1: honestly just the usage of political resources that's not going
Speaker 1: to change anything. You know, the members of the black
Speaker 1: community who like Trump will continue to but it's very
Speaker 1: hard to make gains beyond that. I think it's that
Speaker 1: hard to make gains, and I think that it's obviously
Speaker 1: always worth having the conversation when it comes to engaging
Speaker 1: black voters, But at a certain point you have to realize.
Speaker 1: And this is kind of why so many Black people
Speaker 1: are kind of like lost in this leptism and all
Speaker 1: of this stuff, is that it becomes a family structure issue.
Speaker 1: So if you're growing up in a broken home and
Speaker 1: both of you arranons are not there, if you don't
Speaker 1: have these strong family structures, Look, we don't get We
Speaker 1: get our rights and privileges from the Constitution and from God,
Speaker 1: but this messaging of self reliance and all that stuff
Speaker 1: that has to come from within the home. And the
Speaker 1: evil geniuses on the left they know that and they
Speaker 1: deeply realize that, which is why the most popular political
Speaker 1: figures on the left generally come from two parent households
Speaker 1: where they've gotten all this stuff. But the idea is
Speaker 1: is that they get political power by lying to Black
Speaker 1: people basically, and by telling them that these things are
Speaker 1: not important. So fundamentally, I don't think it's I don't
Speaker 1: think it's ever a waste of time politically to engage
Speaker 1: different audiences. I think that Trump has done it pretty
Speaker 1: beautifully when it comes from a pure policy point of view,
Speaker 1: and I think that that is why a lot of
Speaker 1: people on the left are absolutely terrified about their prospects
Speaker 1: among black voters this election, which is why we have
Speaker 1: all the BLM stuff and in the race riots and
Speaker 1: all of that stuff that we're going through right now.
Speaker 1: But I think that ultimately the messaging that people get
Speaker 1: it has to come from within the home. It has
Speaker 1: to come from within their own communities. And I think
Speaker 1: that the most powerful thing about this new, you know,
Speaker 1: crop of black influencers that we have all across the internet,
Speaker 1: is that people are going to be able to get
Speaker 1: that stuff from their homes, but they're also going to
Speaker 1: be able to see a different perspective. One of the
Speaker 1: most omnipresent criticisms of me is that people think that
Speaker 1: I'm somehow some trust fund kid, that I came from
Speaker 1: a wealthy family, that none of those things are true.
Speaker 1: I'm from Acin, Ohio. I'll talk about this in the
Speaker 1: From Acin, Ohio. I'm from a single parent household. I
Speaker 1: went to a high school in Akroin, Ohio that was
Speaker 1: rated f you know, by the Ohio public school systems.
Speaker 1: So I had to get the messages of self discipline, determinism, determination,
Speaker 1: self aliance, all that stuff. I got that from the
Speaker 1: military to come from my family. So the thing is
Speaker 1: is that you have to get these messages from people
Speaker 1: in the home. They're not necessarily going to come from politicians,
Speaker 1: and to tell you the truth, they're more likely to
Speaker 1: come from people like you and I than the President
Speaker 1: of the United States. Rob Smith, everybody. The book is
Speaker 1: Always a Soldier, which you should check out on Amazon.
Speaker 1: If you have not already, go get a copy today
Speaker 1: download it to your Kindle. Also Rob Smith online on
Speaker 1: Twitter and he's a contributor to the first Rob always
Speaker 1: a pleasure, My friend will talk soon. All right, Thanks
Speaker 1: so much. Buck, You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is
Speaker 1: the Buck Sex and Show podcast team. Whenever possible, I
Speaker 1: like to bring you some good news. And the good
Speaker 1: news that I bring you today, I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: like I'm running speaking in circles here. There is good
Speaker 1: news for me to bring, and the bringing of the
Speaker 1: good news that I have for you is all of
Speaker 1: a sudden. I am French. Buck, I am very happy
Speaker 1: for all love. You know. It's has to do with
Speaker 1: the vaccine. Trump has been saying that this is we've
Speaker 1: got operation warp Speed, which whenever I hear this, I
Speaker 1: always think of that scene in space Balls where they
Speaker 1: go from warp speed to I think it's ludicrous speed.
Speaker 1: Producer Mark probably hasn't even seen space Balls, have you.
Speaker 1: I've heard of it. I've seen space Jam. Space Balls
Speaker 1: is better among Rick Moranis's finest finest appearances on film.
Speaker 1: Not as good as Ghostbusters, but still pretty good. But
Speaker 1: you know they are at operation warp speed. They talk
Speaker 1: about this, and then you also you have some of
Speaker 1: the more recent news stories about the breakthroughs or at
Speaker 1: least the effective early stages of the treatment. Here's the
Speaker 1: President on the vaccine seventeen. So ultimately, our goal is
Speaker 1: not merely to manage the pandemic, but to end it.
Speaker 1: We want to get rid of it as soon as
Speaker 1: we can. That is why getting a vaccine remains a
Speaker 1: top priority. Two vaccine candidates are entering the final stage
Speaker 1: of clinical trials this month. This was achieved in record time.
Speaker 1: It used to be years before you were in a
Speaker 1: position like we are right now. Four other vaccines we'll
Speaker 1: lent to final trials and the following weeks, and we're
Speaker 1: mass producing all of the top candidates so that the
Speaker 1: first to prove vaccine will be available immediately. And logistically,
Speaker 1: we have the military ready to go. We have great people,
Speaker 1: logistic military people, a wonderful general who's waiting for the
Speaker 1: vaccine so they can distribute it in record time. That's
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. So our military is all said
Speaker 1: to go. We will deliver a vaccine, therapeutics, whatever it
Speaker 1: is is necessary and defeat the virus once and for all.
Speaker 1: I think it's important here this. We will return to normal.
Speaker 1: This has been dragged out longer than I think almost
Speaker 1: anybody anticipated in the early days. We will return to normal.
Speaker 1: It's going to happen. I can't tell you when it might.
Speaker 1: In my mind, I'm I'm ready for things not to
Speaker 1: really feel normal normal until next summer. That's just my
Speaker 1: that's just my gut feeling. And that doesn't mean that
Speaker 1: things aren't getting better and getting better. But you know,
Speaker 1: I think by next summer, people are going to be
Speaker 1: flying on planes and not really worry. You know, it's
Speaker 1: just going to be maybe some people still there'll be
Speaker 1: some voluntary mask wearing, will still be a part of
Speaker 1: the culture, but it's gonna there's gonna be a return
Speaker 1: to normal. So that's what I see. I could be wrong,
Speaker 1: but I'm very happy when I hear about the movement
Speaker 1: on these vaccines. Here's a HHS secretary Azar talking about
Speaker 1: They've just signed a big contract to get you a
Speaker 1: whole bunch of doses by the end of the year
Speaker 1: Play fifteen. Under the President's leadership, we just signed a
Speaker 1: contract with a global pharmaceutical leader, Fiser, to produce a
Speaker 1: hundred million doses of vaccine starting in December of this year,
Speaker 1: with an option to buy another half a billion doses. Now,
Speaker 1: those would, of course have to be safe and effective
Speaker 1: according to the FDA's gold standard. But this now adds
Speaker 1: to what President Trump has delivered, which is for other
Speaker 1: vaccine candidates, we now have five vaccine candidates that prioritize
Speaker 1: the US people where we're going to manufacture vaccine and
Speaker 1: work to secure FDA approval of them. All at the
Speaker 1: same time. I gotta tell you, I'm I'm really going
Speaker 1: to enjoy shaking hands. I was never that big into
Speaker 1: shaking hands before. I mean, I would shake hands, but
Speaker 1: I wasn't. I kind of miss it. I miss our
Speaker 1: old life, America. I do. I miss it a lot.
Speaker 1: I miss the sense that we all have that we
Speaker 1: can be around people, you know, and I go through phases.
Speaker 1: I'm not somebody that's particularly into being in big crowds.
Speaker 1: But man, the things that I want to get back
Speaker 1: to are crowded, crowded live music shows. And I will
Speaker 1: not comp laying about being elbow to elbow with people
Speaker 1: in a stacked New York bar that is probably a
Speaker 1: violation of the fire code because so many people in,
Speaker 1: And I won't complain about that for a long time.
Speaker 1: I can assure you, and how long I have to
Speaker 1: wait for a drink and all the rest of it,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to bring any of that up. So
Speaker 1: I'm continuing. I'm hoping to follow I'm following this, continue
Speaker 1: follow us, and hoping that we're going to get to
Speaker 1: a place where we have that vaccine real soon. Producer Mark,
Speaker 1: when things are totally normal, what's top of the list
Speaker 1: for you, buddy? Sports game? Not even a sports game,
Speaker 1: because I can watch those on TV. I would say,
Speaker 1: a concert. You can't recreate a concert at home? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't, You cannot, You cannot do that? Well, you can,
Speaker 1: but really poorly? Well yeah, Producer Mark hears me seeing
Speaker 1: sometimes before I come on air. We don't have to
Speaker 1: worry about that. Maybe one day, one day, you'll all
Speaker 1: give you a taste of that, but we I like
Speaker 1: to get him fired up by singing call it a
Speaker 1: like a like a fight song of sorts for a
Speaker 1: producer Mark before the show so and and producer Nick
Speaker 1: sometimes too, we get them in the mix. Anyway. A
Speaker 1: vaccine is coming. I don't know when. I don't know
Speaker 1: how good it's going to be, but it's coming. And
Speaker 1: hope is a hope is a good thing if you've
Speaker 1: perhaps the best of things. Isn't that what he says
Speaker 1: during Shawshank I think, yeah. Thanks for listening to The
Speaker 1: Bus Sesson Show podcast. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts,
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. A
Speaker 1: quick pick up here, I mentioned this at the very
Speaker 1: top of the show. Rutgers, which is the state University
Speaker 1: of New Jersey, Bruce and Mark, how far are you
Speaker 1: from Rutgers? No very maybe twenty minutes, half hour? Okay,
Speaker 1: so you know Rutgers, if you're if you're an NJ
Speaker 1: everybody knows Rutgers really well. I just thought this was
Speaker 1: entering and hat tip to college fix dot com for this.
Speaker 1: Rutgers English Department to de emphasize traditional grammar in solidarity
Speaker 1: with Black Lives Matter. Here's the piece. The English Department
Speaker 1: at Rutgers University recently announced a list of anti racist
Speaker 1: directives and initiatives for the upcoming fall and spring semesters,
Speaker 1: including an effort to de emphasize traditional grammar rules. The
Speaker 1: initiatives were spelled out by Rebecca Walkowitz, the English Department chair.
Speaker 1: Walkowitz sent out the email on juneteenth. One of the
Speaker 1: initiatives is described as quote incorporating critical grammar into our
Speaker 1: pedagogy pedagogy sorry. It is listed as one of the
Speaker 1: efforts for Rutgers Graduate Writing Program, which serves graduate students
Speaker 1: across the Rutgers community. Under so called critical grammar, the
Speaker 1: approach challenges familiar dogma that writing instruction should limit emphasis
Speaker 1: on grammar and sentence level issues so as not to
Speaker 1: put students from nonstandard English backgrounds at a disadvantage. Don't
Speaker 1: expect proper grammar, according to the Rutgers English Department, and
Speaker 1: this is part of their solid are they say with
Speaker 1: the b LM movement. Look, this just strikes me as
Speaker 1: kind of offensive. You know, I don't know what else
Speaker 1: to say, and I'm not somebody runs around calling things offensive,
Speaker 1: but solidarity with the BLM movement, according to Rutgers, is
Speaker 1: not expecting proper, proper English to be used in the
Speaker 1: English literature department. Okay, I'm just gonna say, these colleges
Speaker 1: keep getting crazier with this stuff. So there you have it, folks.
Speaker 1: Not quite as bad as the Smithsonian poster that said,
Speaker 1: you know, characteristics of whiteness and had things like objective reasoning.
Speaker 1: That was the Smithsonian took that down. That was super offensive,
Speaker 1: put up there by a white diversity consultant, by the way,
Speaker 1: that was the person who was behind that diversity consultants,
Speaker 1: shaking us all down for all this cash. All right,
Speaker 1: I cover that story. Let's do roll call. Hey, team Buck,
Speaker 1: it's time for roll call. You didn't like dubstep didn't
Speaker 1: really get the full uh? I don't know. Dubstep never
Speaker 1: really got as much love as it as it deserved.
Speaker 1: I know this. I feel like this audience is very
Speaker 1: split over dubstep. Producer, Mark, do you ever listen I
Speaker 1: mean not really. I'll listen to techno remixes of songs,
Speaker 1: but not dubstep. Yeah, I know. If there's a difference,
Speaker 1: I guess. So all right, Well that was our dubstep intro.
Speaker 1: Let's get to the inbox. Oh remember, please go to
Speaker 1: buck Sexton dot com. Check in on our site. We
Speaker 1: got stories posted throughout the day and Producer Mark. We
Speaker 1: did have a conversation with our our digital team. They
Speaker 1: would like us to start selling some T shirts. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, yeah, I'm learning. Yeah, there you gonna
Speaker 1: get one with my face on it if you want. Man,
Speaker 1: we could have we could have the Penalty Box Producer
Speaker 1: Mark t shirt. You know, we could sell that, you
Speaker 1: know something, come up with some kind of like a
Speaker 1: grumpy mascot, you know what I mean. We could do it.
Speaker 1: Grumpy cat. Oh, grumpy cat in a penalty but a
Speaker 1: Producer Mark. But I bet the Grumpy Cat is trademarked. Yeah,
Speaker 1: most likely. Yeah. I think they made one hundred million
Speaker 1: dollars off the whole Grumpy Cat franchise just for having
Speaker 1: a cat that looks you know that that cat has
Speaker 1: a form of Dwarfism and that's why it looks like that.
Speaker 1: You know, that cat died, right, I did not know that.
Speaker 1: Now I'm saying recently. Oh that's a shame. Okay, Well, anyway,
Speaker 1: I got it. I got a lot of text that
Speaker 1: day saying ri ip hmm, like to me, they thought
Speaker 1: I was dead. Oh yeah, yeah, No, I got it.
Speaker 1: I got what you're putting down. Facebook dot com, slash

Speaker 1: there as well. All right, I think I think I
Speaker 1: covered all the plugs and pass the buck. Tell people
Speaker 1: about this podcast, darn it. Look, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: podcasts that I'm seeing ahead of us in the Apple
Speaker 1: Store that I'm like, I know that person. Their show stinks.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna say it. They're not good at this.
Speaker 1: So they figured out a way to leverage social media
Speaker 1: and the search algorithms on these different podcast platforms to
Speaker 1: get people download their show. Look, there's some of the
Speaker 1: shows are great. Of course, there's some fantastic talents on
Speaker 1: the right who have really big podcasts. But there are
Speaker 1: some people. I'm like, well, that show is garbage. So
Speaker 1: let's let's at least beat all the garbage shows, shall we.
Speaker 1: That would be nice? All right? That means past the
Speaker 1: Buck tell them about and look, Spotify is so easy,
Speaker 1: and prucer Mark yells at me because we don't work
Speaker 1: for Spotify, but our podcast is on it and you
Speaker 1: are allowed to listen to it there, and it's so
Speaker 1: straightforward and you can listen anytime you want, every day.
Speaker 1: So with that, I appreciate Mark. You're trying to keep
Speaker 1: us having jobs though, That is nice of you. Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm the one who loves the I Heart app. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I like my job. Producer Mark appreciates paychecks and
Speaker 1: healthcare and so yes, we need to always be mindful
Speaker 1: of the fact that the greatest app for listening to
Speaker 1: the show is in fact, the iHeart I Heart Radio app.
Speaker 1: All right, Telor Buck, Yes, finally, good to hear you
Speaker 1: on one oh five point nine k n RS out
Speaker 1: here in Utah. Utah is ripe for the Freedom Hut
Speaker 1: that deserves a proper celebration. Bring out the guns, cannon, smoke,
Speaker 1: barbecue and some stuff to blow up. You are the man.
Speaker 1: Ps go away, Mitt Romney Taylor. I'm so glad you
Speaker 1: got to hear me out on k n RS in
Speaker 1: Utah in Salt Lake City, and I think you'll be
Speaker 1: hearing more of the Freedom Hut out there. I got
Speaker 1: a feeling, so please keep listening, and if you don't,
Speaker 1: you know, make sure you're subscribe to the podcast. But
Speaker 1: you will be hearing more from that. That's a great
Speaker 1: heritage radio station out in Salt Lake City k n RS,
Speaker 1: and anytime we're on there, we're very very pleased. Matthew,
Speaker 1: Hey Buck, have you heard about the upcoming series on
Speaker 1: Showtime based on James Coombe's book, A Higher Loyalty. It's about,
Speaker 1: if you guessed it, Russia, Russia, Russia, No doubt. It'll
Speaker 1: be presented from a far left perspective. What I thought
Speaker 1: you'd find interesting is that Donald Trump will be in it,
Speaker 1: played by Brendan Gleeson. That's Hamish from Braveheart, Keep Up,
Speaker 1: Keep It Up, Buck Shields High Huh is your father
Speaker 1: a ghost or do you converse with you all night? Producer, Mark,
Speaker 1: you've seen Braveheart? Right? Sure, I'm I'm actually I'm actually
Speaker 1: a little sad right now. You've never seen Braveheart. I
Speaker 1: don't even know how this is possible. I'm sure I've
Speaker 1: seen parts of it. Oh you came out of ninety
Speaker 1: five two? Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, you were like you
Speaker 1: were like a year old? Can you can you go on?
Speaker 1: I think this three hour movie it's the best movie
Speaker 1: of all time, absolutely not the best movie ever made.
Speaker 1: I barely have an attention spent to listen to you
Speaker 1: for three hours. I'm gonna watch a movie and you
Speaker 1: get paid for that, exactly. That's a fair that's a
Speaker 1: fair point. Um. Yeah, I had not heard back to
Speaker 1: Matthew here. I'd not heard about this series on Showtime. Um,
Speaker 1: but I'm sure it's gonna be horrible. I mean, James
Speaker 1: Comey is not an appealing fellow in any regard, so
Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: just kind of a lanky, sanctimonious weirdo. So how they're
Speaker 1: gonna do? But remember this is very important because this
Speaker 1: is how the left gets a lot of support for
Speaker 1: themselves from people who understand they'll be taken care of.
Speaker 1: What I mean here is if you are a soldier
Speaker 1: for the left, or if you do something that makes
Speaker 1: the left apparatus happy, the Democrat Party happy, they will
Speaker 1: memorialize you, lionize you, canonize you. On that issue, I
Speaker 1: think of Steve Schmidt of the Lincoln Project like a
Speaker 1: ram Cans campaign and lost by a ton and led
Speaker 1: to eight years of Obama and dragging the country and socialism.
Speaker 1: But Stave Schmidt had a Woody Harrelson play him in
Speaker 1: the movie Game Change on HBO. Right, So if you're
Speaker 1: going to be a Republican, you want to be the
Speaker 1: kind of Republican who gets a famous actor to play
Speaker 1: you in a sympathetic way in one of these movies.
Speaker 1: That's always in the back of the minds of many
Speaker 1: of these political players, many of the establishment Republicans out there.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm sure the series will be horrible and
Speaker 1: the Russia thing is ridiculous, and they're gonna but they're
Speaker 1: gonna make it seem like it's not ridiculous. That's the
Speaker 1: whole point. Just like the movie Recount with Kevin Spacey,
Speaker 1: another HBO movie. Oh, noticing a pattern made it seem
Speaker 1: like Bush stole the election from Gore, when the whole
Speaker 1: purpose of what they were doing was to only recount
Speaker 1: Democrats only wanted recounts in some areas that were Democrats strongholds,
Speaker 1: no recounts in Republican stronghold areas, to change the votes
Speaker 1: so that Gore could win. They were trying to steal
Speaker 1: the election. But the whole movie leads you to believe, Oh, no,
Speaker 1: Republicans don't want all the votes counted. No, Democrats only
Speaker 1: wanted And there was never a count that had of
Speaker 1: any kind ever done, that had al go ahead in Florida.
Speaker 1: Never didn't exist. But they kept saying, well, let's do
Speaker 1: a recount in this really blue county, but not any
Speaker 1: other counties around it. It's very transparent what they were doing. Oh,
Speaker 1: and Kevin Spacey played the political consultant whose name escapes
Speaker 1: me right now, But I wouldn't want I's gonna say
Speaker 1: this right now. When they make the Buck Sexton movie,
Speaker 1: I don't want Kevin Spacey playing me. I don't want
Speaker 1: Kevin What who do you want to play Buck Sexton? Wow,
Speaker 1: that's a good that's a very good question. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: I think, uh, if you know, we want something that's
Speaker 1: really captures my essence and is just true to life
Speaker 1: and would be a visual cue to the audience. I
Speaker 1: think we gotta go with the guy who plays Thor,
Speaker 1: you know, I think that would be good. Really, that
Speaker 1: guy I don't even know his name. I want that
Speaker 1: guy to play me in the movie. That's a radio
Speaker 1: a radio host who just magically has you know, twenty
Speaker 1: eight inch python biceps. You know, yeah, you want to
Speaker 1: play Yeah, you know what, I would take either of
Speaker 1: the Hemsworth brothers. That's it. Yeah, either one of them
Speaker 1: could play me in the movie. I would accept that.
Speaker 1: You know, we got we have similar similar uh eye
Speaker 1: and hair color. And then you look at your physique
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh no, he's got a game you
Speaker 1: need fat for. Oh my god, did you just call
Speaker 1: me fat for my own radio show? Wow? You you
Speaker 1: just set that was right down in the middle. Come on, uh, everybody,
Speaker 1: Mark Brucer. Mark put one in the upper deck today.
Speaker 1: You know, let him he's running the bases. Oh man,
Speaker 1: that's time for baseball season. I'll take it. I'll take
Speaker 1: it all right. I need I need to regroup here
Speaker 1: for a second. You're in This is the Buck Sex
Speaker 1: Show podcast, all right, and we're back. And I would
Speaker 1: just note that producer Nick says, Adam Scott from Parks
Speaker 1: and rec Uh. Is that is that his? Wait? Is
Speaker 1: that his? What's his? Yeah? Yeah, that's his name, right
Speaker 1: angled him? That actually makes a lot of sense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know that that guy does look like I mean,
Speaker 1: everyone always says this and this is the this is it,
Speaker 1: but but you know he's, um, he is little. He
Speaker 1: has tiny shoulders, he's a little man. I'm not the
Speaker 1: how do you say it? Not little like him? Um, Like,
Speaker 1: we went over that in the last segment. I think
Speaker 1: I already stepped on that land mine. So okay, it's
Speaker 1: kind of French. And then my accent kind of turned
Speaker 1: Hungary in there for a second. I don't know why
Speaker 1: that happened. All Right, we have more takes here from
Speaker 1: Dave Hey Buck. Let producer Mark run with his sports takes.
Speaker 1: They're fantastic. I'm a huge sports fan. He's spot on.
Speaker 1: Take care, okay, producer Mark, since you're you're feeling you're
Speaker 1: feeling your oats today, Uh, what give us a what's
Speaker 1: the latest in the sports world? We need to know about.
Speaker 1: I don't think there really is the latest right now,
Speaker 1: sports start on Thursday night. That's about it. Well, what
Speaker 1: are they starting with? Baseball starts? I believe it's the
Speaker 1: world champion Shington Nationals taking on the New York Yankees.
Speaker 1: Who do you root for? And that? Anything but anything
Speaker 1: but the Yankees? Right? Oh? In that that game? I mean,
Speaker 1: I hate both teams so much. You're hoping they can
Speaker 1: both lose? Yeah, which is not possible. Yeah, you actually
Speaker 1: a fun facta fat game. You're gonna love this. Guess
Speaker 1: who's throwing it up the first pitch, Doctor Fauci. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: I saw that the Fouch. Indeed, dude, they're gonna make
Speaker 1: fa Fauci. They're gonna have a whole series about him,
Speaker 1: where Fauci is played by like a super handsome forty
Speaker 1: year old Hollywood leading man who is defeating the virus,
Speaker 1: undoing Trump's tyranny and mysteriously knows kung fu for no
Speaker 1: apparent reason for the fight scenes like, that's what's gonna
Speaker 1: happen with the Fouch. I would watch that just for
Speaker 1: the kung foot part. That sounds very interesting. Yeah, like hi, yeah,
Speaker 1: take that with the mitigation. You know what I mean,
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen. Dennis Buck and grumpy
Speaker 1: producer Mark Hey, Yeah, that's right. Dennis knows. Trust me,
Speaker 1: I don't want CNN on a regular basis, but happen
Speaker 1: to be changing channels and stopped because they were discussing
Speaker 1: wearing masks. The guest was citing a study done with hamsters. Yes,
Speaker 1: those rodents that looked like mice wearing masks. Seriously, a
Speaker 1: study was done with hamsters wearing masks, and those results
Speaker 1: showed that humans should wear masks. I'll continue to take
Speaker 1: your stand on masks and not listening to what the
Speaker 1: hamsters say. Love the show. Absolutely the best conservative podcast
Speaker 1: out there. Thank you, Dennis. Thank you for having good
Speaker 1: taste in your conservative podcast listening. So I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I don't even know how some people some of the
Speaker 1: people that have that are conservatives, that have podcasts that
Speaker 1: do well. I don't even I don't understand anyone could
Speaker 1: listen for more than five minutes, but it is what
Speaker 1: it is. Some of the others are great. There's some great.
Speaker 1: So I'm not I'm not somebody who's I'm not a hater.
Speaker 1: I love my conservative brothers and sisters who are doing
Speaker 1: a good job. But as for the mask situation and hamsters,
Speaker 1: it's just for my it's me. I used to think
Speaker 1: that having a hamster would be kind of fun as
Speaker 1: a pet, and and then I realized that if it
Speaker 1: gets loose, it just feels like a hamster running around
Speaker 1: is now a rodent in your house? True or false?
Speaker 1: Producer Mark absolutely like, I would be petrified if my
Speaker 1: hamster got out and I just didn't know where it was.
Speaker 1: So I was just thinking, you know, yeah at the ft,
Speaker 1: things get too crazy at the frat party, and maybe
Speaker 1: your hamster gets out. Imagine the middle of the night,
Speaker 1: your hamster carls on your face and you didn't know
Speaker 1: where it was before. Kind Of we're kind of going
Speaker 1: in other directions here. I was talking about an actual hamster. What.
Speaker 1: I don't even want to know what you where you
Speaker 1: were going? No, you know, I try to, you know,
Speaker 1: after after about a half a dozen drinks, I gotta
Speaker 1: watch out. I want my hamster to get loose. You know.
Speaker 1: I'm earning to catch that on video. U Okay, is
Speaker 1: that the thing on top of your head? Exactly? No,
Speaker 1: that's that's more like a chinchillo, though, because of the
Speaker 1: thickness of the for you know, sure people have chinchillas
Speaker 1: as pets, and for more I understand they can be
Speaker 1: quite delightful pets. People have some odd pets. I've never
Speaker 1: understood snakes as pets yea. And whenever I look, very few,
Speaker 1: very few pet choices, I judge. I love dog people,
Speaker 1: cat people, uh, you know, fish, birds, a lot of things.
Speaker 1: You can have pet goat even I'm down for any mammals. Okay,
Speaker 1: m pet snake I don't understand, but we'll talk about
Speaker 1: that another day. That's the show. Shiels Hie
