1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Tuesday edition of the Clay Travis

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: end Buck Sexton Show. Getting deep into December already. I

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: can't believe it much to discuss. In fact, without even

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: planning this, Clay, I'm sitting here in a Crockett T

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: shirt for Crockett Coffee. Of course, go to Crockett Coffee

6
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,080
Speaker 1: dot com subscribe this holiday season, get yourself hooked up.

7
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: We got cold bean ground bean cake cup mushroom blend.

8
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: It's amazing, plus great gear. I bring it up though,

9
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: because there is a different Crockett in the news. We

10
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: will be discussing that momentarily, Jasmine Crocket. Now we do

11
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: have to take into account, Clay, the possibility that worsh

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: you to say, run for president, You and I would

13
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: often be seen in public wearing Crockett gear, and this

14
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: could be confusing.

15
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 2: So we're gonna have to address this somehow looks.

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 1: Like we're out there canvassing for votes for missus Jasmine

17
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: Crockett of the House of Representatives, when in fact we're

18
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: just trying to sell you the best coffee that you'll

19
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: ever have. So we'll talk about Jasmine crockettnouncing her Senate

20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: run coming up.

21
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: We've also got more on the.

22
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: Minnesota and Somali American fraud situation playing out. We have

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: a Trump interview with Dasha Burns of Politico addressing a

24
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: whole range of issues.

25
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 2: We'll bring you the highlights of that.

26
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: Trump was at a ECON roundtable yesterday, got to talk affordability.

27
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: In fact, Uncle Bill also known as Bill O'Reilly, bestselling author,

28
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: TV host, etc. He will be with us at one

29
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: eastern here next hour on the program. We'll ask him

30
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: a lot of things, but certainly about the affordability question,

31
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: because I think that is what will determine most likely

32
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 1: determine the mid terms the outcome, more than any other

33
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: single issue.

34
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: But I actually wanted to start with this one, if

35
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 2: I may, mister Clay.

36
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: Yesterday we had mentioned this, but there were oral arguments

37
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: part of the Supreme Court yesterday, and those oral arguments

38
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: included a case that goes right to presidential power, presidential authority,

39
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: whether essentially the president can fire people who work for

40
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: the executive branch, or is there truly a forever state,

41
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: a deep state, whatever you want to call it. There

42
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: are people who are the bureaucracy that are effectively a

43
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: fourth branch of government because they cannot be fired by

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: the executive branch. They are not employees of the legislative branch.

45
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: They're certainly not part of the judicial branch. So what

46
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: the heck is going on here? It is a very

47
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: interesting question, I think, Clay. The outcome should be quite clear.

48
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: And yet here is Catanji Brown Jackson, who I think

49
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: you'd have to say is.

50
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 2: The most left wing member of the Court.

51
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: She also, and this is I mean this, she talks

52
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: the most by far of anybody on the Court, and

53
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: that's just a question of timing. On the transcript, she

54
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: talks the most by far, and unfortunately sometimes shows that

55
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: she doesn't really understand the very basics of our government,

56
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: which for Supreme Court justice I think is a problem.

57
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: Here she is yesterday Clay on the issue of presidential authority,

58
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: and can you fire these forever bureaucrats play cut six.

59
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 3: Some issues, some matters, some areas should be handled in

60
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 3: this way by nonpartisan experts. That Congress is saying that

61
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 3: expertise matters with respect to aspects of the economy and

62
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 3: transportation and the various independent agencies that we have. So

63
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 3: having a president come in and fire all the scientists

64
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 3: and the doctors, and the economists and the PhDs, and

65
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 3: replacing them with loyalists and people who don't know anything

66
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 3: is actually not in the best interest of the citizens

67
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: of the United States. These issues should not be in

68
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 3: presidential control.

69
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 2: Whose control should they be?

70
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: And then Clay, that's the question that seems obvious, among others,

71
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: that Katangi Brown Jackson I do not think has a

72
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: particularly erudite answer to. I have never said this before.

73
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: I would be a better Supreme Court justice than Katanji

74
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Brown Jackson, and I would not be a great Supreme

75
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: Court justice. I don't think she has the intellectual theft

76
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 1: to do this job, and the questions that she asks

77
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: confirm that on a regular basis. Look, what she's trying

78
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: to grapple with inarticulately is the concept of where do

79
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: the powers of the presidency extend and how to they

80
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: implicate the powers of Congress. So essentially what we've got here,

81
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: and it is I think it actually intriguing. An important

82
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: position is how do you end up making choices on

83
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: Let me take a step back and explain, because I

84
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: think this has gotten confusing to a lot of people,

85
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: and I don't think it's overwhelmingly confusing, So let me

86
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: just kind of lay out the issue here. About one

87
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: hundred years ago, Congress started to create these independent regulatory

88
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: agencies inside of government that were basically neither executive nor

89
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: congressional in nature. They were kind of a hybrid, and effectively,

90
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: the question is and most of the time the terms

91
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: on these agencies rotate, and they're supposed to be mixed Democrat,

92
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: Republican and all of these things. And the question really

93
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: at essence here is where does that fall within separation

94
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: of powers? Because if you decide that these people are

95
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: doing a bad job, the president is saying, I should

96
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: have the authority to fire them because they are acting

97
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: in an executive capacity. Katanji Brown Jackson is trying to

98
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: argue that they are independent of the entire political process,

99
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: but derive their power from congressional authorization and therefore should

100
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 1: be able to serve in their office without the need

101
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: to be at the behest of anyone. Right, And I

102
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: think for most of us out there, we say, wait

103
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: a minute. In a government, people should be actionable, and

104
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: if you're acting in some form in an executive capacity,

105
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: the president should have the ability to decide whether or.

106
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 2: Not someone is on one of these agencies.

107
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: And Kataji Brown Jackson is trying to say, well, we

108
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: need experts from outside the world of politics. Let's actually

109
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: anti democratic, right, because the entire process of our country

110
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: is predicated on there should be people who are able

111
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: to be removed if the will of the people is

112
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: violated on some level. And that's really what all this

113
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: is about. And look, it's getting tied up in Trump,

114
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 1: but I actually think that's a poor way of the

115
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: media conveying it because Trump's only going to be president

116
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: for three more years, and largely the question is what

117
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 1: are the powers of the executive as it pertains to

118
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: these agencies. And I happen to think the executive should

119
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: have the power or to remove. But Katanji Brown Jackson,

120
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: let's go back to her for a minute, buck, because

121
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: I actually think there's an argument that her selection for

122
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court quite clearly violated federal law because Biden

123
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: said I'm only going to pick a black woman. You

124
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: could not do that in almost any job in America

125
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: without violating the law, because you shouldn't ever say the

126
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: only person who can get publicly, the only person who

127
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: can get this job is a black woman. In doing so,

128
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: Buck Biden eliminated ninety seven percent of all individuals from

129
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: being able to be considered. I think three percent of

130
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: the overall court is made up of the overall legal

131
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: apparatus made up a black woman. I don't think that

132
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: he could appoint her. I think there is an argument

133
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: that her appointment was illegal under federal law because it

134
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: clearly violates principles that the Supreme Court has our ticulated

135
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: when it comes to how to consider race and sex

136
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: in terms of jobs. I also think she's not going

137
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: to win you over with more of her oral arguments,

138
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: which we're about to play here, Clay. In terms of

139
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: her ability to under I don't mean I may disagree,

140
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: and I do disagree with Kagan, for example, on a

141
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: lot of things. I do think she understands what's going on,

142
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: meaning I think she understands competing is forseally.

143
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 2: A brilliant lawyer.

144
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's and the constitutional framework that we are discussing.

145
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: So while I can disagree, she understands what does my

146
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: side say? What does your side say? I don't think

147
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: a Tanji Brown Jackson really understands what the sides are

148
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: in this. She just knows what she wants. She's a politician,

149
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: she's effectively a legislator wearing judicial robes, and here she

150
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: is more of the k J. I'm sorry, k b

151
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: J Rant play seven.

152
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 3: Can you speak to me about the danger of allowing

153
00:08:56,040 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 3: in these various areas the president to actually control the

154
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: Transportation Board and potentially the Federal Reserve and all these

155
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 3: other independent agencies in these particular areas, we would like

156
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 3: to have independence. We don't want the president controlling I

157
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 3: guess what I don't understand from your overarching argument is

158
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 3: why that determination of Congress, which makes perfect sense given

159
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 3: its duty to protect the people of the United States,

160
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 3: why that is subjugated to a concern about the president

161
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: not being able to control everything. I mean, I appreciate

162
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 3: there's a conflict between the two, but one would think

163
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 3: under our constitutional design, given the history of the monarchy

164
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 3: and the concerns that the Framers had about a president

165
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 3: controlling everything, that in the clash between those two congresses

166
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 3: view that we should be able to have independence with

167
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 3: respect to certain issues should take precedence.

168
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: I don't what does she even say. She sounds to

169
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: me like she thinks that there is a special imputed

170
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: power from Congress to have elements of government outside the

171
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: executive branch, outside the legislative branch, where people are unfirable

172
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: because of their so called expertise. I mean, this case

173
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: comes from trying to fire someone on the Federal Trade Commission, Right,

174
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: It's the case is Trump Vslaughter, and it's about firing

175
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: an FTC director.

176
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 2: I think we could find somebody else to do the

177
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 2: FTC job, thank you very much.

178
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: I think really what this goes to, Clay, is that

179
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: Democrats cling to this, if you will, Fauciite power, going

180
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: back to doctor fauci of people who can have vast

181
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: power within the bureaucracy but are answer will answering to no.

182
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 2: One, because bureaucrats tend to be Democrats.

183
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: Also, it's Congress not doing its job, because I mean,

184
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: this is very basic and I get it that when

185
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: you go to separation of powers, where we really run

186
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: into where the rubber meets the road is where do

187
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: you define the separation of the power?

188
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 2: Right, this is Marbarry v. Madison back in the day

189
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 2: with Hey.

190
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: The Supreme Court has the ability to review any actions

191
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: of the executive or the or the Obviously a congressional

192
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: power and try to make a determination there. But again,

193
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: I don't have any problem with Katanji Brown Jackson's perspectives,

194
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: but she she everything that she does, it appears that

195
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: she thinks she's a senator or a governor or even

196
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: a presidential candidate. She wants to do politics, that's fine,

197
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: but the job of a justice sitting on the Supreme

198
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 1: Court is not to articulate political arguments, and that's all

199
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: she seems capable of doing. Well, I don't think she

200
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: knows the difference, which is a huge problem. Well that

201
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: I think she's showing an issue deeply mired in her perspective,

202
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: point of view and political ideology, that she does not

203
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: know the difference between the role of a judge and

204
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: the role of a legislator. That's what came across to

205
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 1: me in this argument, that she has no idea that

206
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: she couldn't make a distinction really, because she's saying things like, Okay, well,

207
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: who determines that these people are experts? Someone hired them

208
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: somewhere along the line, so who gets to fire them?

209
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: I mean, if you start to work backward from her premise,

210
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: so once you work for the FTC, you get to

211
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 1: stay there forever.

212
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 2: Explain this to me. We can't find somebody better.

213
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: I think what you're seeing also internally in the Supreme

214
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: Court is there's a growing disrespect of Katanji Brown Jackson's

215
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: seat on the Supreme Court. I think you saw it

216
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: when Amy Coney Barrett slapped her down in kind of

217
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: unprecedented terms. But there was a big article I read

218
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: in the New York Times recently where even Elena Kagan

219
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: and Justice Soto Mayor are not that happy with Katanji

220
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: Brown Jackson.

221
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 2: And so I think this is a curse that she

222
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 2: makes their side look silly. Is really what's going on?

223
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: This is the lasting curse of the Biden era that

224
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: is going to unfortunately stay in the Supreme Court for

225
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: the next thirty forty years, maybe long after I'm gone.

226
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: Katanji Brown Jackson is I think around fifty years old.

227
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: She's probably got thirty years left on the Supreme Court,

228
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: and I think she's going to be a real liability

229
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: as a justice going forward. And again, I don't know

230
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: that I've ever pointed this out with anybody. I don't

231
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: think I'm not trying to brag and say hey, as

232
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: a lawyer, I'd be some great Supreme Court justice. I

233
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: don't think i'd be very good at it. I would

234
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: be better than Katanji Brown Jackson as a Supreme Court

235
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 1: justice play I didn't go to law school, and I

236
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: think i'd be better than Katanji Brown Jackson, and I

237
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: actually probably there's probably a lot of people out there

238
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: that would be better. But again, I think there's an argument.

239
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: I've never heard anybody make it, but I think there's

240
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: an argument that her appointment is illegal under federal law

241
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: and should not stand because of Biden specifically saying I'm

242
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,199
Speaker 1: only going to put a black woman on and by

243
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: the way, she's a I think a poor choice within

244
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: the black female community. I think Biden not surprisingly made

245
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: a poor choice, except to your point, he probably knew

246
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 1: what he was doing, which is just basically putting a

247
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: left wing politician on the court to make left wing arguments.

248
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 1: And I think that's why you're seeing Sotomayor and Kagan

249
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: back away from KBJ, and why you're actually seeing any

250
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: cony Bahirt, who seems pretty realized. It doesn't seem like

251
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: an angry person to get her fired up in some

252
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: of these court opinions. I think it's probably giving you

253
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: an idea about what's going on behind the scenes. Cozy

Speaker 1: O'Reilly dot com. He's got regular articles there. He is

297
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: a best selling author who has got one bestseller after another.

298
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: And we were just actually talking about Whoopy Goldberg said

299
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: Bill that Trump will just have no legacy whatsoever and

300
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: he will vanish on the Idiot Show, the view she

301
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: enjoys appearing on, and Bucket and I both feel like

302
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: Trump is definitely the most consequential figure of the twenty

303
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 1: first century.

304
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 2: And Bill, I said, I would put.

305
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: Trump right now behind only Reagan in my life as

306
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: the best presidents. Now, you're a little bit older than me,

307
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: but I was born in the last year of Jimmy

308
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: Carter's presidency. You're a history guy, though, where would you

309
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 1: put Trump? And how do you assess Biden? Since we

310
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: know Biden's ten years over? How do you think history

311
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: views this era of those guys?

312
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, we have to take Whipopy Goldberg

313
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 5: seriously because she was in a movie called Ghost where

314
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 5: she could see everything that happened, So I'm sure that's

315
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 5: carried over to her real life. And we know she's

316
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 5: a PhD in history and political science, a combination which

317
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 5: is extraordinary. So we can't just dismiss miss Goldberg out

318
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 5: of hand. I'm being, of course to see I read

319
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 5: a book called Confronting the President's which is right behind

320
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 5: Confronting Evil, which is out now. We twined them up.

321
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 5: By the way. You get both books on Bill O'Reilly

322
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 5: dot com for very fine price. Now, every time I

323
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 5: see President Trump, and the last time was five days

324
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 5: ago in the White House, so he's spent forty minutes

325
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 5: with him, he's asking me the same question that you

326
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 5: just asked me, So what's my legacy? Am I number

327
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 5: one yet? And you know I can't be. He's never

328
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 5: going to be number one. Abraham Lincoln will always be

329
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 5: the best president the United States.

330
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: Hold up the president. You're at the Oval Office. This

331
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: is a great scene. You're in the Oval Office with

332
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: the president, and the president, who trusts your historical acumen,

333
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: is saying, hey, Bill, how do you rank that? This

334
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: is very very funny. So he's asking you directly, hey

335
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: where do I rank right now? And you told him,

336
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I love this. You told him what exactly?

337
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 5: I told him that you know he's going I should

338
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 5: be number one? That's the saymenty megs, I said, You'll

339
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 5: never be number one, you know me, I mean, I

340
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 5: don't pander to anybody. I said, You're never going to

341
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 5: be number one because Lincoln was so extraordinary and held

342
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,439
Speaker 5: the Union together when few other presidents would have been

343
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 5: able to do that. But you're in the top ten

344
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 5: right now. And you're the hardest working president of all time.

345
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 5: No president has ever approached the work ethic of Donald Trump,

346
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 5: and it is not even closed. There's not even a

347
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 5: close second to that. And I said, but a lot

348
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 5: of your policies are yet to be known as far

349
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 5: as their effectiveness is concerned. You got the border in

350
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 5: your pocket, okay, And you also have accomplishments because you

351
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 5: followed the second worst president in our history, Joe Biden,

352
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 5: only James Buchanan, who led up to Lincoln and who

353
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 5: was an abject coward and allowed the South to arm

354
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 5: itself for four years in preparation of the War of

355
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 5: Rebellion and began and did nothing, knew it was too

356
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 5: afraid to do anything about it. Worst president ever, Biden's

357
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 5: number two. Why because in four years Joe Biden did

358
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 5: not solve one problem in this country, not one. And

359
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 5: all my liberal friends who voted for him and Kamala Harris.

360
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 5: When I say to them very politely, because I don't

361
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:45,239
Speaker 5: get angry about political differences, that's foolish when I say,

362
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 5: all right, give me one thing that he did, Joe.

363
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Bill, I got to jump in real quick.

364
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 1: You're leading out that President Biden solved Hunter's legal issues, which,

365
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: to be fair, he swooped in on that.

366
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 5: Okay, well, I'll I'll debate you on that any time

367
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 5: you want. But they, the people voted for him, cannot

368
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 5: come up with one.

369
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

370
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 1: Well, they certainly don't care that Hunter got a pardon,

371
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: or if they do, I think they don't like it.

372
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 5: But you're right, if it were Donald Trump, junior President

373
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 5: Trump would have done the same thing. So I'm an

374
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 5: honest guy. Yeah, all right, So.

375
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: I was kidding Hi about the pardon thing. I'm not

376
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: trying to divert you from what you're saying. He clearly

377
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: is a terrible president who didn't manage to solve much

378
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: of anything. But I also wanted to ask you, Bill,

379
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: if I could the president, the current president, who you

380
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: say is excellent, not number one. He probably was a

381
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: little miffed at that, but that's okay. He's an excellent president.

382
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: He's going on a affordability tour of sorts, going to

383
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: eastern Pennsylvania, because I think there's a recognition even in

384
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: this White House that despite the excellent policies, there's frustration

385
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: with the economy on affordability. Do you think Trump's making

386
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: the right move here by going Do you think that

387
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: this is something that the White House can successfully address

388
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: so we don't lose the control of a house in

389
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: the midterms.

390
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 5: Well, on the night before Thanksgiving, I was at the

391
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 5: Islander hockey game and the puck was about to drop,

392
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 5: and I got a phone call from President Trump right

393
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 5: at the game. Now, when a president calls, so you

394
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 5: got to take the call. He can't go to voicemail,

395
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 5: all right, So I got a private office. The owner

396
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,479
Speaker 5: of the team is a friend of mine, and President

397
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 5: Trump can proceed to yell at me for ten minutes,

398
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 5: all right, which is not unusual, all right, And when

399
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 5: he gets going, you can't interrupt. He's essence of the

400
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 5: disenchantment with O'Reilly was that I was reporting that the

401
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 5: affordability situation could very much hurt him because it all

402
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 5: he has to do is go back to twenty eighteen

403
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 5: terms you got whacked. Trump got whacked and Obama got whacked.

404
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 5: And in terms of very difficult to hold power, and

405
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 5: the press is pounding every second, affordability, affordability, affordability. Now,

406
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 5: the stats are not bad for Trump, they're not, in fact.

407
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 5: On the now Spin News tonight, I'll lay them all

408
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 5: out for you. But if you have a specific stat

409
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,199
Speaker 5: you want, I'll give it to you. And now, the

410
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 5: economy is in pretty good shape. Stock market's good for

411
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 5: one K people, retirement, plant people, prospering. You can get

412
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 5: a job if you want. Wages are up, Bacon is up.

413
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 5: If you like bacon, you're paying more of a bacon, okay,

414
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 5: But a whole number of other foods are down. So

415
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 5: this is a contrived thing. With one exception. Insurance call

416
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 5: us are killing working Americans, killing them health insurance, car insurance,

417
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 5: house insurance. That after President Trump got through yelling at me,

418
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 5: I said, all right, it's my job to report what's happening,

419
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 5: mister president. Of course you're not going to like some

420
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 5: of it, but I'm fair. This is what you have

421
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 5: to do. You got to get out there and you've

422
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 5: got to tell people. In twenty six here's what we're

423
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 5: going to do to bring down these prices very specifically.

424
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 5: So I think he followed my advice, but I'm sure

425
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 5: he got that advice from other people as well. I'm

426
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 5: not taking credit for it. And he's out in Pennsylvania tonight.

427
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,959
Speaker 2: Bill. This is a little bit of a pivot.

428
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 1: But the last time we had you on, we had

429
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 1: a caller who wanted us to ask you about Patent's

430
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 1: death and whether you bought into and I know you

431
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 1: wrote about the death of pat in your Killing series.

432
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: What you thought about is death and whether he wrote

433
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: a book He's Killing Patent. Yeah, whether what your take

434
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: is on that death and what occurred.

435
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,679
Speaker 5: Okay, first of all, you get all the books, and

436
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,360
Speaker 5: this is a shameless plug, but you guys are nice.

437
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 5: You can get all thirteen Killing books in the two

438
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 5: Confronting books in one package on Bill O'Reilly dot com,

439
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 5: which will save you hundreds of dollars in Christmas gift

440
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 5: expenses because people want these books. Okay, so you get

441
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 5: fifteen youdele them out. You add up the money that

442
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 5: you spent on that as opposed to what you would

443
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 5: spend on fifteen individual gifts. Your way ahead, Bill O'Reilly,

444
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 5: dot Com killing Patten. We walk through the whole career

445
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 5: of the best American general in World War Two, second

446
00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:00,640
Speaker 5: best in history next to John Pershing. Pershing was the best. Okay,

447
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 5: Patton was second. At the end of his life, many

448
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 5: very strange things happened to George Patten. None of them

449
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 5: added up. He should not have died in that hospital

450
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 5: in Luxembourg. So a lot of people, including me, suspect

451
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,360
Speaker 5: that he was murdered. Who would want to murder him?

452
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 5: Russia stalin Soviet Union, and they had access because you remember,

453
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 5: they were our allies in World War Two, because Patten

454
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 5: wanted to fight them. He did not want to stop

455
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 5: because he knew that the Soviet Union was going to

456
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 5: be replace Hitler in the Nazis is our main enemy.

457
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: So when you say he was killed, sorry to cut

458
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 1: you off, do you mean that in the poisoned in

459
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: the wake of the car accident while he was recovering.

460
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 5: Okay, in the hospital and the car accident itself did

461
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 5: not make any sense, and we trace it in killing Tat.

462
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 5: It did not make any sense. So anyway that I'm

463
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 5: not a conspiracy guy. You guys know that I don't

464
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 5: deal with that. I am a reporter and what I

465
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 5: lay out is one hundred percent accurate. The only resolution

466
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 5: to this is to exhoom the general's body, which is

467
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 5: in europe a test. They did that for Zachary Taylor.

468
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 5: Zachary Taylor got that treatment. They won't do it for Patten.

469
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And do we have a caller, Dad, Bill?

470
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: We had a caller who called in who said, who

471
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 1: claimed that his father was the driver for the car

472
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: when Patten was.

473
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: In that accident you mentioned. Just wanted you to hear this.

474
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 2: This is thirty one.

475
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: You say your dad was driving the car when Patten

476
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: was killed, when he died in the car accident.

477
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 2: Yes, he was Okay, Well, what did your dad tell

478
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 2: you about that?

479
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 6: He actually died nine days later. He was driving a

480
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 6: thirty eight Cadillac Limo and Patton was sitting in the

481
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 6: back on the edge of the seat as usual, and

482
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 6: they were waiting for a train to pass, and he

483
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 6: put in a pass. He pulled away. He got up

484
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 6: to about twenty five miles an hour, and there was

485
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 6: a personnel carrier about a quarter mile down the road

486
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 6: that pulled out at the same time. And when they

487
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 6: got to each other, the personnel carrier turned right into

488
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 6: the Cadillac, and Patton flew forward, hit his forehead on

489
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,719
Speaker 6: the partition between the front and back, scalped his you know,

490
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 6: put to the scalp himself and broke his neck.

491
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: And so from your perspective, your dad told you there

492
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: is no conspiracy there. It's for people out there that

493
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: have bought not believe that this was a traffic accident

494
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: and it was a freak accident in some way based

495
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: on the Patton died.

496
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I did, never talked about any conspiracies about it

497
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 6: or anything like that. But I mean there's three drunkie

498
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 6: guys that all disappeared, you know, they were they were

499
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 6: in the personnel career, and uh, you know, Patton's starting

500
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 6: to do a lot better and then he died this

501
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 6: all of a sudden.

502
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 2: Take it away. What do you make of it?

503
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 5: Man? I believe that his father was the driver, the

504
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 5: three soldiers he fighted. That that is unbelievable evidence. I mean,

505
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 5: when you get a general, a four star, dying in

506
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 5: this kind of circumstance, you would interview everybody, and nothing

507
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 5: was done. Nothing was done. Washington's here to Patten. That

508
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 5: would be Harry Truman, the Democratic Party because Patten was

509
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 5: going to run for president. He's going to come back

510
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 5: to the United States and run just as Eisenhower did,

511
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 5: and Eisenhower of course won. And so there were a

512
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 5: lot of reasons that Patten had a lot of enemies,

513
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 5: but the big enemy was Stalin, and Stalin had access.

514
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 5: So I'm not saying that Patten was murdered because I

515
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 5: cannot prove it. What I am saying is that you

516
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 5: could find out if this general was poisoned or not,

517
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 5: and nobody is apparently wants to do that.

518
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: So that's the point about he had a turn for

519
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 1: the worse in the hospital. I mean that was It's

520
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: interesting that he was. It seemed he was getting better

521
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: than all of a sudden, And so you're saying that

522
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, to you is very suspicious. You'd

523
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: like to get to the bottom of it, or people

524
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: to get to the bottom of it. With the testing

525
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: of Patten's remains.

526
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you read Killing Patten, anybody very interested in

527
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 5: this subject, should we really walk through it in a

528
00:30:54,400 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 5: non hysterical way, so we have all the eyewitness reports

529
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 5: in there, and you know, in my style, my style

530
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 5: is I'm not boring you. I am moving this story along,

531
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 5: but I'm not a guy who ordinarily buys into this stuff.

532
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 5: But here you had motive, you had accessibility, you had

533
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 5: enemies both abroad and at home. And George is a

534
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 5: tough guy. He was a big, strong guy, and it

535
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 5: just doesn't stack Bill.

536
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 2: Thank you for hanging out with us here. Good Christmas gift.

537
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: As you said, Bill O'Reilly dot com for not only

538
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: kill real quick, I know.

539
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 5: You got to hit a break. President Trump asked me

540
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 5: to give him Confronting Evil, specifically for the chapter on Putin,

541
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 5: because we trace that what has happened to Putin, he's

542
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 5: not the same guy that Trump was dealing with in

543
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 5: the first term. And the President wrote me a really

544
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 5: nice note after he read Confronting Evil. So I just

545
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 5: want people to know that that is out there.

546
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: That's outstanding. Thank you for the background stories. We'll talk

547
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: to you again, probably after the first of the new year.

548
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:21,959
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to you.

549
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 5: Okay, guys, you too, have fun. Thank you.

550
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 2: That's Bill O'Reilly.

551
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 1: When tragedy strikes the tunnel, The Towers Foundation honors America's

552
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: heroes and their families. Like United States Army specialist Andy Kingsley.

553
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: Andy served our nation as part of the eighty second

554
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: Airborne Division. Throughout his distinguished career, he received various awards

555
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: and decorations, including a Purple Heart. But while Andy was deployed,

556
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: he was severely injured. The incident resulted in the loss

557
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: of his right leg, partial vision, loss, a traumatic brain injury,

558
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: and more. He spent over a year at Walter Reed

559
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: National Military Medical Center learning how to navigate life with

560
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: his injuries. Living with severe combat injuries can make even

561
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: life's daily task challenging. That's why receiving a specially adapted

562
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 1: mortgage free smart home from Tunnel to Towers has been

563
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: life changing for Andy. It allows him to live with

564
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: greater independence and dignity. This is the power of giving

565
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: to Tunnel to Towers. Many more heroes like Andy Knieger

566
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: support donate eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers

567

Speaker 2: A joyful new Year.

579
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: Welcome back in here to Clay and Buck. So we

580
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 1: have much to discuss with the Trump round table that

581
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 1: occurred yesterday.

582
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 2: We're just talking to Bill.

583
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 7: O'Reilly about the situation of affordability, and Bill is saying

584
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 7: that there's a lot of perception driving that, more so

585
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 7: even than the actual cold hard numbers if you look

586
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 7: into it, which I'm sure that is the case.

587
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: But Trump at an ECON round table. Look, he's going

588
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 1: to Pennsylvania to address affordability because it's a political issue,

589
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 1: whether the numbers bear that out entirely or not. And

590
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: a lot of people do feel like, well, first of all,

591
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,360
Speaker 1: prices are high, they've remained high. So you have to

592
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 1: get into Okay, is it that affordability is not an issue,

593
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 1: or is that it's not Trump's fault that affordability is

594
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: an issue, or a whole range of things, but one

595
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 1: thing that is definitely. The case that came up is Obamacare, Clay.

596
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: These new Obamacare premiums, they're just going up and up,

597
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 1: and networks are getting smaller and smaller, and sure enough,

598
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: the whole promise of Obamacare is falling apart. And that's

599
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: been the case for a long time. Trump here this

600
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: is cut twenty one, was saying, Look, it's been great

601
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: for the insurance companies. It's been really bad for people

602
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: that actually need healthcare.

603
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 2: Play twenty one.

604
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 8: The insurance companies stock has gone up by seventeen eighteen

605
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 8: hundred percent.

606
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 9: They're taking in trillions of dollars.

607
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 10: I don't want to pay the insurance companies anything, and

608
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 10: then I know a lot of them, but they're owned

609
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 10: by the Democrats, and the Democrats have Obamacare is a setup.

610
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 9: To make insurance companies rich.

611
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 8: And I want to pay the people, and I want

612
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,280
Speaker 8: the people to go out and buy their own healthcare.

613
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 8: And that's what we want to do, and that's what

614
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,760
Speaker 8: the Republicans want to do, because Obamacare is a disaster.

615
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: Clay, it is a disaster, and it's time Republicans dig

616
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: into this so that Democrats can't control the message.

617
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 2: And going into the midterms, all of healthcare. It is

618
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 2: a disaster.

619
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: And I don't care if you're a Democrat, Republican or independent.

620
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 1: Nobody has any idea what things cost. Nobody is happy.

621
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: I would submit to you that everyone's least favorite thing

622
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 1: almost in the world is having to get on the

623
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: phone with an insurance company adjuster and try to explain

624
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 1: why you're being overcharged. To the extent that you can

625
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: even tell what your bill has on it. It is

626
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: all just a huge game of hide the hide the ball.

627
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 1: And what Trump is saying is in essence a very

628
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:43,680
Speaker 1: real position, and honestly, I think most people out there

629
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: would probably prefer this. It's let you have the money

630
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: and then make your own decisions about what healthcare you need.

631
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 1: I don't even think most people realize, if they're not

632
00:36:54,080 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 1: the employer, what percentage of your overall salary goes for healthcare. Now,

633
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 1: this is crazy. I mean, there are lots of people

634
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 1: out there paying twenty five thirty thirty five thousand dollars

635
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 1: a year for your health care plans inside of whatever

636
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: job you get, and you don't see that money, you

637
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: don't have any idea how it's being allocated. I think

638
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 1: huge percentages of people out there listening to us would

639
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 1: like to get all of that money tax free to

640
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: themselves and then be able to make the choices about

641
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,720
Speaker 1: how to best allocate those resources for them and their family.

642
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: And so what we basically have is a huge subsidy

643
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: for all the health insurance companies of America. That is

644
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 1: what Obamacare is. And the problem here, Buck is the math.

645
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 1: We have way more older people entering into needing substantial

646
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 1: amounts of health care than we do young people. And

647
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,959
Speaker 1: by the way, this is not just for health care,

648
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,240
Speaker 1: this is social security, this is everything. All of these

649
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 1: government policies are predicated on constantly having way more young

650
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 1: people than we do old people.

651
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 2: And in the next.

652
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: Twenty thirty forty years, the reality is we're going to

653
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: have way more old people than we are young people.

654
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: And that's true in a lot of countries. And the

655
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: shell game, the hide the ball aspects of this are

656
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: going to become more and more prominent, and people are

657
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: going to get angrier because they don't feel like they're

658
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: getting a good value for their money. I mean, I

659
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: hate to say it, but this is part of what

660
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: motivated the United Healthcare CEO shooting. Is people are just

661
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 1: misallocating anger, and in many ways lashing out when.

662
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 2: You see what the real structure of Obamacare is.

663
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 1: You have to have a lot of young, healthy people

664
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 1: who don't use very much in the way of healthcare

665
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: resources to spend into a system that is going to

666
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 1: put a huge majority of it on older, sicker people.

667
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: And that's what so the whole system is a redistribution

668
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: of wealth via healthcare. And then beyond that, there's also

669
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: people who are getting subsidized in the programs and all

670
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: these exchanges. That's what was really an issue in this shutdown.

671
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,760
Speaker 1: Government just funneling money into it to make it seem

672
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: not as bad as it really is for individuals. But

673
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 1: you have a lot of people who are getting massive

674
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 1: subsidies because if they had to pay what the market

675
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 1: rate is based upon the system of redistribution, the pricing

676
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,439
Speaker 1: on this would be insane. I mean, you'd be paying

677
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,440
Speaker 1: fifty grand a year for health insurance, remember, not for

678
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: health care.

679
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 2: You're still on the hook to pay for.

680
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: Your health care, you know, you know, twenty percent of

681
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: the one hundred percent of the whatever percent they say,

682
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, you know, customary and normal or however

683
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 1: they phrase the language so that they can play all

684
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: these games the insurance companies. So that's a giant mess.

685
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: And then there's also this because we've been discussing the

686
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: boat strikes in mostly in the Caribbean against the Narco terrorists.

687
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: This is Trump with ABC's Rachel Scott. A little bit

688
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 1: of a back and forth here. There's now a pushplay

689
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,840
Speaker 1: to have the video release because clearly we have video.

690
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: They were under ISAs, are there under surveillance. This has

691
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: cut twenty Trump doesn't like this request.

692
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 9: Whatever heckseet wants to do is okay with you. He

693
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 9: now said it's under review.

694
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:12,839
Speaker 3: Are you ordering the secretary to release that full video?

695
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 9: Whatever he decides, it's okay with me.

696
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 10: So every boat we knock out of the water, every

697
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 10: boat we saved twenty five thousand American lives.

698
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 9: That was a boat loaded up with drugs. I saw

699
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 9: the video.

700
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,399
Speaker 8: They were trying to turn the boat back to where

701
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 8: it could float.

702
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:30,479
Speaker 5: Video.

703
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 9: Didn't I just tell you that said obnoxious reporter in

704
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 9: the whole place.

705
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 8: Let me just tell you you are an obnoxious, a

706
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 8: terrible actually a terrible reporter.

707
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 9: And it's always the same thing with you. I told you,

708
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 9: whatever Pete hegseet wants to do? Is okay with me?

709
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: There you go, Clay laying it down. They're trying to

710
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: create a fall guy here. They tried to create the

711
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: Admiral as the fall guy. They tried to create hag

712
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: Set as the fall guy. They've tried to create Trump

713
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 1: as the fall guy. This story, other than on the

714
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 1: far left wing, has vanished as soon as the video

715
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: was shown in behind closed Doors in Congress. Now, I

716
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: know some Democrats came out and they said, oh my goodness,

717
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: I can't believe this happened. But the fact that the

718
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: story vanished kind of tells you what the video is

719
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: going to show. And I presume the video will show

720
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: what has been reported already. And the numbers came out

721
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: from the Harvard Harris poll that I believe it was

722
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: fifty eight percent of Americans support the strikes that are

723
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 1: going on with Venezuelan Narco boats, forty two percent disagree.

724
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,439
Speaker 1: And I bet if you show that video that it'll

725
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,839
Speaker 1: break down. About sixty percent of people will say, yeah,

726
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 1: I agree with that, and about forty percent will say no,

727
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: I disagree. But this is the world in which we're in,

728
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: where you kind of have people floundering in every direction

729
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 1: trying to find something to be able to pin to Trump,

730
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 1: and so far they really aren't able to find anything.

731
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: And I think it's going to be a challenge going

732
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: forward how exactly they convey their anger over Trump. And

733
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: we come back, we can play audio because Susie Wilds

734
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 1: Buck is telling everybody that Trump plans to be on

735
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: the road campaigning, starting in Pennsylvania right now to sell

736
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 1: the agenda that he has put in place, and I

737
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: grabbed a picture. I need to tweet it out again.

738
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: I think a large degree of Trump's success is just

739
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 1: being ignored because he saw things so quickly on the

740
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:42,839
Speaker 1: border that almost no one is able to even contemplate

741
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 1: how quickly he saw things. And I was reading our

742
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: buddy Ryan Gardusky this morning as I was doing my prep.

743
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: The White House has said about two million people have

744
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: self deported and or been removed who are illegals. And

745
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: Ryan Gardusky looked at the data on newborns in the

746
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: country and he said, actually, the data does support the

747
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: idea that there are increasing numbers of people leaving the

748
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: country because they're not having kids. Non citizens, illegals are

749
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: not having kids at the rates that they were before,

750
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 1: But when you look at the graphic, it's really kind

751
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 1: of amazing to see. Yes, the Trump immigration policies are

752
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 1: working in ways that aren't even necessarily at the center

753
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: of the conversation on immigration, but are very very effective.

754
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: On the other side of things. You have Zoron Mamdani

755
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: in New York City telling people telling illegals how to

756
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: avoid law enforcement.

757
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 2: This is cut twenty four. Listen to this.

758
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 9: One if you encounter ICE.

759
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 11: These are the things that every New Yorker should know.

760
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:49,760
Speaker 2: First.

761
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,320
Speaker 11: ICE cannot enter into private spaces like your home, school,

762
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 11: or private area of your workplace without a judicial warrant

763
00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 11: signed by a judge. That looks like this does not

764
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 11: have a judicial warrant signed by a judge. You have

765
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 11: the right to say I do not consent to entry,

766
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 11: and the right to keep.

767
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 5: Your door closed.

768
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 11: Sometimes ICE will show you paperwork it looks like this

769
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 11: and tell you that they have the right to arrest you.

770
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:13,720
Speaker 2: That is false.

771
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 11: ICE is legally allowed to lie to you, but you

772
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 11: have the right to remain silent. If you're being detained,

773
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 11: you may always ask am I free to go repeatedly

774
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,439
Speaker 11: until I answer you. You are legally allowed to film

775
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:25,720
Speaker 11: ice as long as you do not interfere with an arrest.

776
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 11: New Yorkers have a constitutional right to protest, and when

777
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 11: I'm there, we will protect that right.

778
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 1: I had to say, imagine if you did this for drug dealers,

779
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: all of that would be true as well. Let me

780
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: be clear, everything that he said there is true in general,

781
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,799
Speaker 1: for any criminal, for any violation of law. All of

782
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: that is true. But he's doing it for illegals because

783
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 1: they're a for Democrats, illegals are a protected class of

784
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 1: person Clay. And this is what is going to continue

785
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 1: to be a huge problem from this is what is

786
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 1: going to continue to drag them down because they can't

787
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:04,640
Speaker 1: avoid that reality without completely inflaming the left wing base

788
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 1: of their party.

789
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 6: Yeah.

790
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: Look, and they're on the wrong on this issue. They're

791
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: on the wrong on every issue, which is why I

792
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: think you're going to see them just try to pivot

793
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 1: and blame Trump for the fact that Biden's inflation drove

794
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: up the prices of good so substantially. That's the reality.

795
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: Even though inflation has come back down substantially where at

796
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: two point seven percent, I think target is two percent.

797
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: People are just angry, and I get it. Because it

798
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 1: feels like goods costs more than they should and until

799
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 1: that starts to settle in, that rapid increase becomes embedded

800
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 1: into our minds as to what things should cost. This

801
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: is the pernicious nature of inflation. It is diabolical in

802
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,320
Speaker 1: its impact to frustrate everyone.

803
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:54,440

Speaker 1: way from the Mannheim Steamroller?

837
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 2: Everybody? Yeah, I'm gonna take some flak here. Buck not

838
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 2: about this, Oh man.

839
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: I was like, you're getting in the way of the steamroller, buddy,

840
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: You're go god stepping in front of not stepping in

841
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 1: front of the steamroller and getting flattened. Maybe even broader though.

842
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,240
Speaker 1: I think Christmas music's overplayed. I was out to dinner

843
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: the other day Sunday night, went out to dinner, and

844
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 1: I could hear throughout the whole meal they.

845
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:00,800
Speaker 2: Were playing Christmas music.

846
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 5: Now.

847
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: Look, I used to work in retail back in the day.

848
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:07,799
Speaker 1: American Eagle Outfitters may have heard of it. Abercrombie and Fitch,

849
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: and I know because we would have our holiday medley

850
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 1: and anybody who's ever worked in retail, it's the same

851
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: track over and over and over again. But there is

852
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:22,759
Speaker 1: evidence to support that people buy more products when you

853
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,680
Speaker 1: play Christmas music. So I get it in a retail setting.

854
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: I don't know that I need to hear it in

855
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: elevators everywhere.

856
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 2: I don't know that I.

857
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: Need to hear it while I'm eating dinner. I would

858
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 1: be very very comfortable with. And I used to make

859
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 1: jokes about this in sports talk radio. We would stop

860
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 1: playing we would only play Christmas music starting in December.

861
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:44,839
Speaker 1: I know we play a lot of Christmas music on

862
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 1: this do you know we get beat in ratings? Now,

863
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: you and me and everybody out there who does talk radio,

864
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,919
Speaker 1: every community in America, Christmas music goes to number one,

865
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 1: we just get trounced and all they do is play

866
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:00,719
Speaker 1: jingle bells over and over and over again, and so

867
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:05,040
Speaker 1: I feel like we're inundated, frankly, with too much holiday music.

868
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 2: Does that make me sound like the Grinch?

869
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 1: Or do you think most people agree with me that

870
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 1: it's impossible to escape and we don't need as much. No,

871
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna get lit up over this one, buddy.

872
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna step away from the blast radius. I

873
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 1: love Santa Claus and and all the Christmas cheer and

874
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:20,239
Speaker 1: music and everything else.

875
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 2: Just telling you, ho ho ho, I'm the I'm the Grinch.

876
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 2: I'll own it.

877
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,479
Speaker 1: There's too much Christmas music and all facets of life.

878
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: I don't need to hear it everywhere. I'll tell you this.

879
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: I believe I've referred to it before as going Grinch,

880
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 1: or maybe other people have coined that and I just

881
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 1: picked it up.

882
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:41,240
Speaker 2: I don't know, but that's what I say. I don't want.

883
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 2: There are certain categories here. Children. Yes, give them gifts,

884
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 2: but not a ton of gifts.

885
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 1: Okay, you shouldn't want Your living room should not look

886
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 1: like a you know, a Toys or Russ After five

887
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: hundred kids have like rummaged through all the packaging or something.

888
00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,399
Speaker 1: I guess it's toys Rus even exists anymore. That used

889
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 1: to be a we ruined toy stores were this this

890
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:04,360
Speaker 1: thing and they had all this g I Joe's and

891
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:08,359
Speaker 1: he Man Made in China Toys are us was incredible.

892
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:13,440
Speaker 1: They'd shut them all down. Remember KB Toys in the mall. Yeah,

893
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:16,239
Speaker 1: they used to have KB toys and Walden Books. You

894
00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: had one. When I was growing up, we had one

895
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 1: toy store before the toys rs came to town, and

896
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 1: we only had one bookstore for basically my whole life.

897
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 1: We had Walden Books in the local mall and those

898
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 1: were everywhere. I don't think either of them exist anymore.

899
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:30,919
Speaker 1: I think Walden Books is gone.

900
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 2: So you know, there was a time when you had

901
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,719
Speaker 2: the first of all, I've always.

902
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: Hated the pressure of you got to get gifts for

903
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 1: all these people, especially get gifts for people then maybe

904
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:42,919
Speaker 1: you don't know that, well whatever, here's what I would say.

905
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: You get gifts for kids under eighteen in your family,

906
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 1: you know, your kids, your own children, nieces, nephews.

907
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 2: Yes, you get thing.

908
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 1: It's like we're gonna get little speed gifts. Although it's

909
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 1: not like he can remember them. He's eight months old.

910
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: But you know we do. We do that fine. My

911
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:59,359
Speaker 1: little nieces and nephews. We give them gifts too, you know.

912
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 1: And I'm an I tell you this. In this household,

913
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:05,840
Speaker 1: I contribute to Nis and nephew h college funds.

914
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,239
Speaker 2: That's what I every year. I'm just like, I contribute.

915
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 5: Now.

916
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,799
Speaker 1: I know that doesn't sound like, you know, like what

917
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: Santa Claus would do. Let me tell you something. I

918
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:14,799
Speaker 1: do it every year.

919
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 2: That is such an old man moved by the way.

920
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not this few.

921
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 1: You're too young to be doing college fund contributions for

922
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 1: your thesis.

923
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 2: What are you actually actually? That is nonsense.

924
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 1: I don't want all the financial planner Dave Ramsey. When

925
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,720
Speaker 1: I need him, I need Dave Ramsey here. Dave would

926
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 1: support my five twenty nine plan. Your contributions for donations

927
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 1: are amazing. You're too young to be going straight And

928
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:46,400
Speaker 1: the college donations. I am wrapping myself in the mantle

929
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 1: of uncle uncle Dave Ramsey on this one. He would

930
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:50,919
Speaker 1: totally approve. So I did the five five to twenty

931
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,360
Speaker 1: nine planned contributions.

932
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 2: Uh. And so there's that.

933
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 1: And then obviously, uh, gifts, bonuses, things like that, people

934
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 1: you work with, people who work for you, whatever it

935
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: is that they're and and really it's like money is

936
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 1: really what people. They actually don't want some beige sweater.

937
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 1: They actually just want money so they can, you know,

938
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,080
Speaker 1: have money in their bank account. They can do with

939
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:15,360
Speaker 1: what they want. I we stopped doing presence among the

940
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:19,720
Speaker 1: adults in my immediate family at my I wouldn't say.

941
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,719
Speaker 2: Demand, but I pretty much demanded this. I think. I

942
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 2: don't know if my dad's listening.

943
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 1: I think when he gave me a belt for the

944
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 1: fourth year in a row, I was like, he's not

945
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,320
Speaker 1: going to be happy with me telling this story.

946
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 2: But I think when he gave me a.

947
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,239
Speaker 1: Belt four years in a row, the belt's different or

948
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: was it like different color belts? Was it like black

949
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 1: leather belts, like maybe slightly different buckle on them.

950
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 2: But he was just like, here you go. So I'm like,

951
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 2: here's a belt.

952
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:43,520
Speaker 1: I was like, thank you. I'm going to add it

953
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,600
Speaker 1: to my belt collection. So which is all from you?

954
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:48,879
Speaker 1: Because I don't even really wear belts. So I will

955
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:52,439
Speaker 1: say that we decided as a family to get rid

956
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 1: of that pressure to get things last minute. It is

957
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 1: so great. It is such a nice you know, you

958
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 1: don't have to get to just everyone, just stop with

959
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:04,400
Speaker 1: this stuff. Christmas is for those of us who are Christians.

960
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,920
Speaker 1: Christmas is actually supposed to be about the celebration of

961
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:11,360
Speaker 1: something holy. It is about to be It's supposed to

962
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:15,520
Speaker 1: be about the celebration as well of family and being

963
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: together and reflecting on the year.

964
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:18,800
Speaker 2: It's really not.

965
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 1: Supposed to be get me the Gi Joe aircraft carrier, mommy,

966
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 1: or you don't love me, Like, that's not what it's

967
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,720
Speaker 1: and it's not supposed to be. Hey, uncle Phil, thanks

968
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,919
Speaker 1: for bringing me these socks with tree frogs on them.

969
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: It's what I've always wanted. Like, no, we don't need

970
00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 1: to do this. Here's where I will co sign. And

971
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: now this is gonna make me sound really grinchy. I

972
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 1: don't think anybody over the age of eighteen should get

973
00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: gifts for Christmas. Yes, I think you should only get

974
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,279
Speaker 1: gifts for kids. Sanna, that's fun. I don't even know

975
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: you need to go to eighteen, but let's say to

976
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 1: eighteen after that. Like, I don't like, I'm not super

977
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: excited to open gifts. I'm not super I have zero

978
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,720
Speaker 1: interest in biding add to what you're saying, because obviously

979
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 1: you I appreciate this. You see what I see also

980
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: play we all walk around now. Twenty years ago, it

981
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,160
Speaker 1: was different. You know, if you really wanted that thing

982
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 1: from the Sharper Image, you had to get out that

983
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,560
Speaker 1: Remember that guy is a Sharper Image. You had to

984
00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 1: get out that catalog. You had to order it, It

985
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:20,319
Speaker 1: had to arrive. It took ten days or a month

986
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:24,239
Speaker 1: or whatever. I can get anything I want delivered tomorrow.

987
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: I actually don't want for any material thing in a

988
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:29,719
Speaker 1: way that someone's going to give it to me for

989
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:31,280
Speaker 1: and it's gonna carry so funny.

990
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,280
Speaker 2: She's like, well, shouldn't I get you? I'm like, no, honey,

991
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:34,319
Speaker 2: I love you.

992
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 1: Don't buy me an expensive watch with my own money,

993
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 1: like I've got it. I'm fine, Like I don't need that,

994
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 1: I don't want that. I'm wearing a rubber wedding room

995
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:42,839
Speaker 1: right now because I can't even find my wedding ring,

996
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 1: which is driving me nuts.

997
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:45,879
Speaker 2: So that's where we are.

998
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,760
Speaker 1: I agree with all that we probably have destroyed eighty

999
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 1: percent of the Christmas holiday spirit out there in this segment. Yeah,

1000
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 1: except for our sponsors. Christmas gifts of plenty. That's where

1001
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 1: you gotta go. Don't ever forget that Crockett Coffee love

1002
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,000
Speaker 1: to get you coffee for Christmas because.

1003
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 2: You need that.

1004
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 1: No, but I just really mean the gifts for immediate

1005
00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:08,840
Speaker 1: family members that you know. Come on, I am sold

1006
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 1: on only kids should get Christmas gifts. I think it

1007
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 1: would be a revolutionary thing that would actually be super

1008
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,480
Speaker 1: beneficial to the country. Not to mention the number of

1009
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 1: men that just get blown up every year because they're

1010
00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:21,359
Speaker 1: like your dad buying belts because they have no idea

1011
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,600
Speaker 1: what to get people. I mean, what do you get

1012
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,440
Speaker 1: to your point? Like, do you know I mean wallets

1013
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 1: I had amassed over the years for my dad giving

1014
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:33,720
Speaker 1: me tes ties. I mean every dad out there ties,

1015
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 1: even moms, Like where's that great Saturday Night Live skit

1016
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:40,959
Speaker 1: that they did which was actually very funny And mom

1017
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 1: got a robe?

1018
00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 2: Do you remember that?

1019
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,600
Speaker 1: Like it's a great song, you know, Like because Mom's

1020
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,279
Speaker 1: responsible for buying gifts for everybody and then every year

1021
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 1: she gets a coffee mug or a robe or whatever

1022
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 1: it is. Yeah, No, I agree. By the way, I

1023
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 1: didn't expect to get this criticism today. Steve and Eden

1024
00:55:58,200 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 1: North Carolina. He's fired.

1025
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:00,439
Speaker 2: Buck.

1026
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know the criticism coming our way,

1027
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,080
Speaker 1: But Steve, what you got for us?

1028
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:06,959
Speaker 5: Hey?

1029
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:11,360
Speaker 12: Hey Buck, this ain't you son? This is another Steve.

1030
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:15,240
Speaker 12: But anyway, you know, every time I hear people talking

1031
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,279
Speaker 12: about the greatest president, I wouldn't get erked a little bit.

1032
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:21,480
Speaker 12: I mean, everybody pretty much says Abraham Lincoln, what about

1033
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 12: George Washington?

1034
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:27,359
Speaker 1: So you think the show, Steve, remember, yeah, you think

1035
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 1: that the show has been too disrespectful of George Washington today,

1036
00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:34,839
Speaker 1: I'm not I actually would co sign Steve on this.

1037
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:35,279
Speaker 2: Steve.

1038
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:36,919
Speaker 1: Just to be clear, I didn't say that was Bill

1039
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 1: O'Reilly who said Abraham Lincoln's clear number one I would

1040
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,400
Speaker 1: put I would put gw on the number one spot,

1041
00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:45,680
Speaker 1: no question in my mind, for a whole bunch of reasons.

1042
00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 12: How could you not?

1043
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,439
Speaker 2: I'm with you, buddy, I don't know. I'd actually i'd

1044
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 2: actually put in.

1045
00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 12: Below you created with us having the United States of America.

1046
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 1: Look here I'm reading right now, Rick Atkinson, great Triller.

1047
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:04,440
Speaker 1: He's on volume two, all about the Revolutionary War. I

1048
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:09,720
Speaker 1: would actually put Washington three. I think that i'd.

1049
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 2: Put him now. He's just trolling you, Steve. He's just trolling.

1050
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:14,200
Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, i'd put him third.

1051
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: I think you gotta go Lincoln one, because I don't

1052
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:18,520
Speaker 1: think we would have a country if Lincoln hadn't stepped up.

1053
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 1: And I would go to Jefferson because I think the

1054
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 1: Louisiana purchase was probably the most important decision that anybody made. Now,

1055
00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 1: when you're talking gold bront gold, silver bronze, like that

1056
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:33,920
Speaker 1: is pretty good stuff. Let me also, I'm gonna really

1057
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:35,800
Speaker 1: fire Steve up. Thank you for the call, Steve. I

1058
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:40,280
Speaker 1: think he was confusing Speed with Steve. He thought your

1059
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 1: son's name is Speed, not my son's name is actually

1060
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:46,920
Speaker 1: like going fast, which is what Clay does in a car,

1061
00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:48,680
Speaker 1: the opposite of what I do in a car. But

1062
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 1: Speed is my son's name, not Steve. But close enough. Okay,

1063
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 1: So I think Washington's actually overrated in some respects. He

1064
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 1: was actually not a very good general. He made a

1065
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: lot of awful choices. If you go study George Washington

1066
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:07,240
Speaker 1: in the revenue was out gone.

1067
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 2: But I can't just let you this is Geg. Listen,

1068
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 2: mister Civil war buff you're just getting crazy here. Okay.

1069
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 2: First of all, big G Dubs. G.

1070
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 1: Dubbs kept the army together fighting the most impressive certainly

1071
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:22,000
Speaker 1: navy and overall, I think you could argue military machine

1072
00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 1: in the world at that time. The French would have

1073
00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 1: been right there with them. But you know, we all

1074
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: know how that went for them when their revolution started.

1075
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: Point being, he did an amazing job holding them together.

1076
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 1: But that's as a general, as president, for him to

1077
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 1: be there to preside, to step aside when the time came,

1078
00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,640
Speaker 1: to be the father of the nation, not to allow

1079
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 1: factionalism to pull it all apart at the seams in

1080
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 1: the earliest days. Not to let that pompous Adams I

1081
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,400
Speaker 1: get the titles of nobility going. I'm just saying, I'm

1082
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 1: just gonna fire away on Washington here. Not a very

1083
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 1: good general on the battlefield. You're right, he held them together.

1084
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 1: Second would have been a big scan back in the day.

1085
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 1: Do you know he refused to take a stout salary

1086
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 1: but just did an expense account instead and ran up

1087
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:12,640
Speaker 1: exorbitant costs as the president of the United States, Kane,

1088
00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 1: he had to.

1089
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,320
Speaker 2: Throw some parties. We top throwing a party this week,

1090
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, buddy.

1091
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:19,120
Speaker 1: It's expensive such that they had to go back in

1092
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 1: and actually say no, no, no, we need to give

1093
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 1: the president a salary because g DUB.

1094
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 2: I don't want to.

1095
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to throw her under the bus here.

1096
00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,960
Speaker 1: Maybe Martha had expensive taste. Not a lot of criticism

1097
00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 1: for Martha Washington these days. I think if you go

1098
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,640
Speaker 1: back and look at the g DUB expense account, Martha

1099
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:38,920
Speaker 1: ran up a lot of money there and such that

1100
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,080
Speaker 1: they decided, you know what, maybe we need to have

1101
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:44,840
Speaker 1: a salary. Jefferson picked the wrong Jefferson thought that the

1102
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 1: French Revolution was a good idea and it was going

1103
00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,360
Speaker 1: to work out. Jefferson was on the wrong side of

1104
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:53,120
Speaker 1: some big stuff. I like his Barbary pirates move. That

1105
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:54,560
Speaker 1: was pretty slick. That was good.

1106
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:56,680
Speaker 2: We didn't really have which Stanna purchase was good.

1107
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 1: Probably shouldn't have slept with a slave if we want

1108
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 1: to go, you know, Mike ro manage Jefferson's Uh, there's

1109
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: a lot of there's just that. So there's a lot

1110
01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 1: of dispute over whether that actually occurred. Sir, I'll let

1111
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 1: it go. Some of some people are going to tell

1112
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 1: you that they have what what is the evidence for that?

1113
01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 13: Again?

1114
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 2: I mean, the evidence for it is pretty.

1115
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:17,240
Speaker 1: Could have well it in definitely a Jefferson at some

1116
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:21,480
Speaker 1: point was involved in being the progenitor. Is that the

1117
01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 1: right word of of it was either a could have

1118
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 1: been a brother could have been, Like the DNA is

1119
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 1: the DNA. You know, It's just been a nice quiet

1120
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:33,360
Speaker 1: on the show. And Clay is deciding to throw g

1121
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 1: Dubs under the bus. He's deciding that that Jefferson's private

1122
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: life is something that is very much has some problematic

1123
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 1: aspect to it, although, like I said, this is very

1124
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:49,600
Speaker 1: disputed whether this actually occurred or not. Jim in Clearwater,

1125
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:51,920
Speaker 1: Florida wants to talk presence. He's gonna bring us back

1126
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: in line here. What's going on?

1127
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 5: Jim?

1128
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 12: Hey, guys, I've been listening since uh so since.

1129
01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:00,640
Speaker 13: Rush back in like eighty eight, but thank you.

1130
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:00,800
Speaker 6: So.

1131
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:05,040
Speaker 13: My family has solved the issue of buying adults presents.

1132
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 13: We download an app called a draw Names and I

1133
01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:11,320
Speaker 13: think that's the name of it, and we do a

1134
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:14,120
Speaker 13: bottle swap. You kind of know everybody's favorite kind of

1135
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 13: liquor or wine or whatever, and you can try to

1136
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:19,680
Speaker 13: find something unique that they wouldn't normally think of or

1137
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:20,280
Speaker 13: say or buy.

1138
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, I think that kind of thing is cool.

1139
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,680
Speaker 1: I think that's fine. I just I'm on buck side

1140
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,600
Speaker 1: here in that it used to be that it was

1141
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 1: kind of difficult to get things purchased. I don't remember

1142
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 1: the last time I thought, boy, you know, I can't

1143
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: find X and I really need it. I said X,

1144
01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 1: because that's a it might've been misheard. And if you do,

1145
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:51,920
Speaker 1: like in this day and age, it's not that hard

1146
01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,880
Speaker 1: to be able to get whatever you want purchased now.

1147
01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:59,120
Speaker 1: To be fair, I buy things at Amazon almost always books,

1148
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 1: and Osco almost always Kirkling brand clothes. So I you know,

1149
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,840
Speaker 1: I got my family members. I got my family members

1150
01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 1: like early edition antique books one year that I thought

1151
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,280
Speaker 1: would all for individuals, and I thought I was. I

1152
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,160
Speaker 1: think they all ended up as coasters on like the

1153
01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:16,800
Speaker 1: sides of you know, various desks.

1154
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 6: You know.

1155
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 1: So I've tried the uh, I've tried the special gift

1156
01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:23,400
