1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Klay, Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast.

3
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 2: We talked about the mayor's race in New York, the

4
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 2: Democrat primary, Mom Donnie, the communist lunatic one. We're going

5
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 2: to dive into Iran stuff here momentarily, and also look

6
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 2: at Trump it at NATO, which very much gets into

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: the Russia discussion. He talked about his meeting with Zelenski.

8
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: Couldn't have been nicer, couldn't have been nicer, he said, So,

9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 2: I guess that's going in a good direction, but at

10
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: least the relationship between those two guys. So I think

11
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 2: we had mentioned is there a possibility of a non

12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 2: Mom Downie mayoral tea in New York? And the only

13
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 2: way I think it could happen, Clay, is if there's

14
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: a consolidation around a candidate who is not the Democrat

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: primary winner or not the winner of that primary. So

16
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: that would mean neither Curtis lee Weather Republican. I think

17
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: we've had Curtis on the show before. He's he would

18
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: do great things for New York. I mean, way better

19
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 2: than he's running up hill on this thing on ice skates.

20
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 2: It's just it's a you know eight to one Democrat

21
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 2: or Republican situation in New York. So and if the

22
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: people who are willing to vote for Mamdani, they're going

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: to vote for him again obviously over anybody else. So

24
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: that's not going to change. And then you have the possibility,

25
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: Clay of Eric Adams getting a second life as a

26
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 2: mayor of New York on another term. Here would be

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: a second term mayor if there's a movement for the

28
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 2: Cuomo voters, the SLIWA Republican voters to all just say,

29
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: you know what, Adams is not good, but he's not horrible.

30
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 1: We'll keep this guy.

31
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: That would be, under the circumstances, a pretty good, insane

32
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: outcome for the City of New York.

33
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

34
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 3: Look, I think the only way that Mom Donnie can

35
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 3: be challenged is if everybody else basically said, all of

36
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 3: our voters have to go together, even if they're coming

37
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: from different points on the political spectrum, to keep him

38
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 3: from winning. I'm not sure it would work if everybody

39
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 3: got behind Derek Adams, but I think that's what it

40
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 3: would require, because otherwise you have multiple different independents, you

41
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 3: have different subsets where everybody is coming from different perspectives,

42
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 3: and those little subsets get their percentage support and Mom

43
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 3: Donnie wins and let me I was reading this to

44
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 3: buckoff Air. I do think the crazy town nature of

45
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 3: what he has said sometimes gets overlooked.

46
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: Here he is attacking Cuomo.

47
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 3: When Cuomo refuses to tax the rich, he's refusing to

48
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 3: let workers enjoy the wealth they created. When he says

49
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 3: low taxes foster a business friendly environment, he means an

50
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 3: environment where it's easy for bosses to steal from workers.

51
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 3: Taxation isn't theft capitalism is? I mean for those of

52
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 3: you out there that are listening to us in South Florida,

53
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 3: you have got a situation suddenly where you have a

54
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 3: New York City mayor who would agree with a lot

55
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 3: of the policies put in place by Venezuela or Cuba.

56
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 3: Cuba has grocery stores. Those grocery stores do not work

57
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 3: very well, Bucked. They are not staples of the Cuban nine.

58
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: No yes, and so anybody who has actually lived through

59
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 3: socialism to see America's biggest city. By the way, it's

60
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 3: not just New York. Chicago's got a mayor with six

61
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 3: percent approval, Brandon Johnson. LA has got a mayor who

62
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 3: can't put out fires and can't stop riots in karen Bass.

63
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 3: Our three largest cities have never had in my lifetime

64
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,119
Speaker 3: and probably any almost any lifetime anybody out there as

65
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 3: ineffective leadership for all of their citizens as now. And

66
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: they're all crazy left wing Democrats.

67
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 2: And yet they want more. That's the part of it

68
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: that I think is a surprise to a lot of people.

69
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: There was real fatigue in New York after the Dinkins

70
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 2: administration with ineptitude just being bad at the job, and

71
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 2: the crime in the city, and the graffiti everywhere, and

72
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 2: the vagrants and the assaults and the murders and all

73
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 2: the things that were going on. Crazy numbers. People said

74
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 2: enough as enough. Giuliani came in and he had a

75
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: real mandate, mandate to clean things up, and he did so.

76
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,559
Speaker 2: The problem you see in a lot of these democrats cities,

77
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: Democrat run cities, is that things get bad and then

78
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: they really just run. The playbook of real communism has

79
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 2: never been tried.

80
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 1: You know.

81
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: This is the old sol joke about how people look

82
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 2: at any communist country. It's always ends in misery, collapse, despair.

83
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 2: It's a nightmare. But somehow people maybe they call themselves socialists,

84
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: but they rise using the same playbook, the same promises,

85
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 2: and the thing is, well, this time will get it right.

86
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: This time we'll get it right. Is one of the

87
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 2: most dangerous beliefs in the world, unfortunately, because you won't.

88
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 2: And that's what happens in these places.

89
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 3: And again, I mean, I feel like the people who

90
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: need government to be effective the most, that's people who

91
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 3: can't move, people who don't have the flexibility to decide, Hey,

92
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 3: I'm going to move to Florida, I'm going to move

93
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 3: to Tennessee.

94
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna move to Texas.

95
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 3: They're the ones that are going to suffer the most

96
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: under this, unfortunately, which is why to your point, they're

97
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: the ones who were voting against this.

98
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: I think that again working off the stereotypes of New

99
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 2: York New Yorkers, different New Yorkers, but I know them

100
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 2: very well, right, I wouldn't do this in Houston. I

101
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: can't speak to like what the different factions are. I

102
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: can speak to the different factions and the different demographic

103
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: realities in New York City with particular expertise. Okay, and

104
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: you have a lot of and you see this. This

105
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 2: is from the data. This isn't just but I'm interpreting

106
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 2: the data as to the realities of New York. You

107
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 2: have people who are black and Hispanic, and particularly Hispanic

108
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 2: from you know, sort of from the Caribbean area with

109
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 2: large you know, large Caribbean Hispanic population, so Dominicans for example.

110
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,679
Speaker 1: There they were Cuomo. They were Cuomo.

111
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 4: You look in parts of Brooklyn that are overwhelmingly black,

112
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 4: Cuomo because they want somebody who is gonna know that

113
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 4: like make the system run as it is.

114
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: But also because a lot there's a lot of state dependency.

115
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 2: There's a lot of uh nischa Housing, which is the

116
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 2: city authority that does the projects. I think we're not

117
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 2: supposed to call them that anymore, and we're supposed to

118
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: call them but NYC h AA whatever. The acronym is

119
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 2: subsidized housing, subs thank you, thank you, sub subsidized housing,

120
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: thank you, Clay. But there's a lot and people want that,

121
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 2: they want these things to be administered not by a lunatic.

122
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 2: But also on the crime issue, if this guy, Mom

123
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: Donnie gets as remember the police commissioner is picked by

124
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 2: the mayor and answers to the mayor. The NYPD is

125
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,479
Speaker 2: responsible for implementing.

126
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: The mayor's policies and only also add.

127
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 2: In here Alvin Bragg just got reelected as a Democrat

128
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 2: for district attorney.

129
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: And he's this guy's a disaster.

130
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 2: But the people who vote for this stuff generally live

131
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: in areas where they don't have high crime. They think

132
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: it's some They watch you know, WPIX eleven or something

133
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: and they see, oh, somebody got stabbed in the South Bronx.

134
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,119
Speaker 2: You know, not my problem. Mommy and daddy are paying

135
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: my rent in Williamsburg or in Red Hook or whatever,

136
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 2: or if they live in a part of Queen that's

137
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 2: heavily immigrant because there were large Asian populations that went

138
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: from Mamdani. Those are generally low crime parts of the city,

139
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 2: high immigrant parts of the city. And they want more.

140
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: Government services and they want the you know.

141
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 2: They want that socialism promise I I. You can see

142
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 2: it playing on the data. By the way, Upper East

143
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 2: and Upper Upper East and Upper West Side went for quota.

144
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 3: Well, it's interesting because your friend you were talking, we

145
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 3: were talking about her yesterday, Tish, who is basically running

146
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 3: Jessica taught Tish.

147
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 2: Family that's they're billionaires. They own like the giants and.

148
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 3: She's actually done a pretty good job under Eric Adams

149
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 3: of helping to get crime a little bit corralled in

150
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 3: the city. But to your point, Buck, the people who

151
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 3: understand basic economics and are Democrats, old school Democrats, they

152
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,239
Speaker 3: voted for Andrew Cuomo.

153
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: The people who are young.

154
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 3: And to a large extent still having their rent paid

155
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 3: by mommy and daddy have decided that capitalism is a

156
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 3: joke and it doesn't really work, and it doesn't really

157
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 3: impact their life, and oh, we need to have a

158
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 3: socialist extravaganza in New York City. And producer Alley just

159
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 3: pointed out that's actually somewhat consistent for them, because when

160
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: mommy and daddy fund your lifestyle in the big city,

161
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 3: you are basically living off somebody else's wealth and argess

162
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: in a way that you would never be able to

163
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 3: afford to do.

164
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: On your own.

165
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 3: And so they overwhelmingly broke And look, this is a

166
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 3: young white coalition. Yes, there are a lot of foreign voters,

167
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 3: foreign citizens that are are.

168
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: Foreign born, were born in New York City.

169
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they weren't really driving mom Donnie. Remember it

170
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: is white women without kids are basically driving every decision

171
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: made by the Democrat Party. Now, white women without kids.

172
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 3: These are the people that the Democrat Party exists to

173
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 3: serve overwhelmingly.

174
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: That is their base.

175
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, the government's supposed to be their husband. This is

176
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 2: the problem. Governments supposed to step in and do all

177
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 2: these things that in the traditional family structure provide for

178
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 2: protect guide, you know, all these things. No, No, the

179
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 2: government's there to do that in the ideology of the unmarried,

180
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 2: white liberal female. So it's not good. This does not

181
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 2: end well for any But the problem that we have

182
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 2: here is they haven't suffered enough. And that's a shame.

183
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 2: But it's true in New York, it's true in San Francisco,

184
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 2: it's true in Chicago. These are places where people haven't

185
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 2: suffered enough. Here are enough people haven't suffered enough that

186
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 2: they're willing to finally say I was wrong.

187
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 3: Here's the scary thing on this buck are the brains

188
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 3: so broken that they lack the ability to understand the

189
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 3: circumstances that surround them are a result of their choice.

190
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 3: And so they continue to look at Trump as sort

191
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: of the great Satan, and the brand of the Democrat

192
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 3: Party is the antagonist brand to Trump, and so they

193
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 3: don't connect the awful choices they're making politically with their

194
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 3: life circumstances being worse.

195
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: That's a little bit scary.

196
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 2: I know you're a big Sex and the City fan, Clay,

197
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 2: so you might have seen that. Cynthia Nixon, who played

198
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: one of the main four characters, was and this is

199
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 2: somebody who I think I actually she had political aspirations

200
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 2: at one point herself.

201
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 3: Did she run for mayor or something? I think, yeah,

202
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 3: she ran, I forget she ran from there, but she is.

203
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 2: She's an imbecile and and a left wing, a left

204
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: wing loon, and and she she said that she wanted

205
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: Mom Donnie because she wanted someone who will stand up

206
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 2: to Trump. It's like, if that is your frame of reference,

207
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 2: stand up to Trump the mayor of New York. You

208
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 2: want somebody who's overseeing the cops, firefighters, sanitation, school system

209
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 2: and brings investment into the city. That's what you actually want.

210
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 2: You want it to function. Well, it doesn't matter, It

211
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 2: doesn't matter who the president is if you're living in

212
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 2: New York City in your day to day certainly not

213
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 2: the way it matters who the mayor is. And it's

214
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 2: just crazy to see. We'll take calls on they've got

215
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 2: New Yorker's lighting us up here, So let's let's see

216
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 2: what they have to say.

217
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 3: Cynthia Nixon ran for governor two thousand, that's for the state.

218
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 2: I don't remember it. Uh, we're films party.

219
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh, I mean the fact that she was on

220
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 3: Sex in the City. Aren't they doing a new version

221
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 3: of Sex and the City right now? An updated Sex

222
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 3: and the City. I'll take your word for it there.

223
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 3: Out of that, well, you know, I'm just gonna say,

224
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 3: sixty year old Cynthia Nixon. I don't think there are

225
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 3: a lot of people like, hey, I want the Sex

226
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 3: and the City story of her, you know. Yeah, And

227
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 3: she also has a trans kid like what an awful,

228
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 3: awful representation of New York City. She's become Fourth of

Speaker 3: the same with good ranchers. I love this company. Ben

Speaker 3: My name Clay good Meat from America delivered. You know,

257
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 3: our old friend Joy Reid buck they kicked her off MSNBC.

258
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 3: I look up last night, and by look up, I

259
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 3: mean look down at my phone and see trending that CNN,

260
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 3: not content with losing the battle to MSNBC, has decided,

261
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 3: you know what we should do. We should put Joy

262
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 3: Reid on as a part of our panel discussion. And

263
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: Joy Reid said, hey, you know what, I don't know

264
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 3: why it's considered to be such a bad thing. If

265
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 3: Iran gets nuclear weapons, maybe it would actually calm everything down.

266
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 3: This is what you would have heard last night cut

267
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 3: fifteen if you were watching CNN.

268
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: What do you think we'll see for World War three?

269
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: On nuclear war?

270
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 5: I don't think we'll ever see nuclear war in our lifetime,

271
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 5: but I do think we'll see a world war. And

272
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 5: the reason you won't see nuclear war in our lifetime

273
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:12,359
Speaker 5: is that everyone who would deem to threaten global and highlation.

274
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: Has nukes mutually destruction.

275
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 5: And I think what would in a weird way make

276
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 5: the Middle East? You know how they say the most

277
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 5: polite society in the country is Texas.

278
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: Is everybody's packing got good. You know, maybe the Middle

279
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: East would be calmer.

280
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 3: Okay, so it would be better if Iran had nuclear weapons.

281
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 3: It would make everything calmer. It's a crazy town take.

282
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 3: By the way, it was on with Charlemagne, not CNN.

283
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 3: She was also on CNN. And I mean to me,

284
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 3: the easier analysis here, if you are just being somewhat rational,

285
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: just somewhat rational, is would it be better if North

286
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 3: Korea didn't have nuclear weapons? I think the answer is yes.

287
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 3: And by the way, it was also a credit to

288
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 3: Israel and also helping with American intelligence, they shot down

289
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 3: ninety five percent of the ballistic missiles that Iran fired

290
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 3: into Israel, and still there were casualties. But can you

291
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 3: imagine if that missile shield had only been half as successful,

292
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 3: or if Iran were able to deliver far more significant

293
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 3: payload damage to Israel than what they did because they

294
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 3: were firing haphazardly, they weren't targeting in particular ways small

295
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 3: segments of the Israeli military defense or top Israeli commanders.

296
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 3: They were just trying to hit anything that they could.

297
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 3: And the idea that you would say, well, maybe they

298
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 3: should have more weapons is and more deadly opportunities is

299
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 3: just crazy to me.

300
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 2: Well, if Iran had it in its capability to, as

301
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 2: I've said, with conventional means, to level Tel Aviv, they

302
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 2: would do so, right. And what's interesting and shocking and

303
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 2: horrifying all at once is that I think many of

304
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 2: the voices right now that are critical of the Israeli strikes,

305
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: or you have been critical of the Israeli strikes, would

306
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 2: find a way to say that even if Iran was

307
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: engaged in widespread targeting of civilians in response to the

308
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 2: Israeli strikes, that that was Israel's fault. I mean, one

309
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 2: thing that I do know from observing events in the

310
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 2: Middle East is that there's a contingent of people, certainly

311
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 2: in the Middle East know non Israelis, a lot of

312
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 2: non Israelis, and then in this country for whom everything

313
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 2: is Israel's fault no matter what it does. Yes, and

314
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 2: there's no way around that. And I think that tells

315
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 2: you much more about those individuals than it does about

316
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 2: what they think will bring peace or what they think

317
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 2: is relevant to the laws of war and the conduct

318
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 2: of armed conflict. So, yeah, it's a good thing that

319
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 2: they're able to shoot down these missiles because Israel could

320
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 2: be going on strafing and bombing runs of Tehran at

321
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 2: will right now, and it does not do so because

322
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 2: it does not seek to kill Iranians. It seeks to

323
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: stop a threat from the Iranian regime. These are not

324
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 2: fundamentally clay, These are not nation states. These are not

325
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: governments that are operating on the same moral plane.

326
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 3: I will say positive, Maybe they're going to have to

327
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,159
Speaker 3: stop calling Trump Hitler because he's so popular now in

328
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 3: Israel that the Israeli Ambassador to the UN said President

329
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 3: Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. I don't think that

330
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,959
Speaker 3: anybody Jewish ever suggested suggested that Hitler deserved a Nobel

331
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 3: Peace Prize. But here is cut fourteen. He should. I

332
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 3: think Trump should get it based on all the work

333
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 3: he's done to actually try and create peace.

334
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 1: Cut fourteen.

335
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 6: Hey, US congressman today sent a letter to nominates Prisident

336
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 6: Trump Nobol Peace Prize.

337
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:58,880
Speaker 1: What is your opinion?

338
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 7: First the I think that President Twamp deserves a Nobel

339
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 7: Peace Prize. I think we should thank him for his

340
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 7: leadership for the pre decision ETUK and to recognize the

341
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 7: effoto of.

342
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,160
Speaker 1: The United States.

343
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 3: There you go, do you think President Trump will get

344
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 3: the Nobel Peace Prize. Buck, Do you feel good in

345
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 3: any way about what would it take. I guess maybe

346
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 3: if you ended the war in Ukraine and Israel and

347
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 3: Iran continued to not fight, and also you had a

348
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 3: situation where Gaza was finally solved between Hamas and Israel,

349
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 3: maybe if you got that triplicate, you could end up

350
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 3: in a situation where Trump got the Peace Prize. Maybe

351
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 3: you expand Abraham Accords to include Saudi Arabia, which I

352
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 3: think could happen down the line.

353
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: I think that's what it would take.

354
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's any situation in which the

355
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 2: people who make those decisions would be willing to give

356
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 2: Trump one. But you know, I think the good thing

357
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 2: about Trump and everyone who supports him and what he's

358
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 2: been doing, Yeah, he he knows this and getting things

359
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 2: right and helping this country and with it, helping the

360
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 2: world is the value that he really seeks from this.

361
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 2: That's the benefit is doing as well as he's doing

362
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 2: in all of these things. That has been a remarkably

363
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 2: successful administration so far. And I would just point out

364
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 2: that even in the first administration, they thought foreign policy

365
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 2: was going to be a weakness because foreign policy used

366
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 2: to be the preserve of the uh you know, the

367
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 2: Brahmins of the DC intelligentsia at some levels like oh,

368
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 2: these are far away places that only some of us understand,

369
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 2: and some of us go to and we well. Trump

370
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 2: approaches foreign policy with a common sense what's good for America,

371
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 2: who are the bad guys, who are the good guys,

372
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 2: and what do we do about it? Approach, and that

373
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 2: is far not just more sensible in theory, but in

374
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 2: practice as well as we saw. And that's where I

375
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 2: think Trump has had a particularly he's at a particularly

376
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: successful port allly on foreign policy, especially when you line

377
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 2: it up against the way the Democrats see these things,

378
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 2: where there's just no clarity. There's a lot of amorphous

379
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 2: and self congratulatory nonsense.

380
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 1: And again I.

381
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 3: Do believe that unfortunately for Trump, he's trying to clean

382
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 3: up the mess that Biden's weakness in Afghanistan created. I

383
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: don't think it's coincidental that we looked as bad and

384
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 3: as haphazard leaving Afghanistan as we did, and shortly thereafter

385
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 3: you had Putin invade Ukraine and you had the Hamas

386
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 3: attack that took place where they went into Israel. I

387
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 3: don't think either of these things would have happened if

388
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 3: Trump were in office, And unfortunately, he's got to now

389
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 3: clean up the messes that were created there, and so

390
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 3: much of what Trump is having to do right now

391
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 3: is not even about advancing the ball. It's just limiting

392
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 3: the disasters that were put in place by the entire

393
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 3: Biden administration, which we talked about yesterday. But I think

394
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 3: increasingly there's going to be a recognition that Biden was

395
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 3: the worst president and anybody's living right now live the

396
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 3: Democrats are going to kick him to the curb. They

397
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 3: don't want to defend him anymore. And you're starting to

398
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 3: see that recognition that basically every choice.

399
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: He made was the wrong choice.

400
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 3: That's hard to do. It's hard to be in a

401
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 3: place where you have constantly two roads diverging and you

402
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 3: take the wrong side every single time on the choice trail.

403
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 3: But that's basically what Biden did.

404
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 6: No.

405
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: I mean, he was known.

406
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 2: I think it was the former CI director and former

407
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 2: Secretary of Defense Gates who said that Biden was famously

408
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 2: the guy who was wrong on every major form. He

409
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 2: was the foreign policy expert who's wrong on every foreign

410
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: policy decision of the last forty years. I think that

411
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 2: something like that was the quote, and it's true. And

412
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 2: when the more you look at Joe Biden, as I said,

413
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 2: I think one of the more interesting time to come

414
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,360
Speaker 2: clean moments of the whole Biden book and the dementia

415
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 2: cover up and everything has been that he's not a guy.

416
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 2: He's not an honest, ethical person, never has been. He's

417
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 2: really a shameless, sleazy politician. And that has been his

418
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 2: calling card all along, and that he fancied himself because

419
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 2: of his grin and his handshake and his ability to

420
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 2: believe his own nonsense some kind of a foreign policy

421
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 2: guru and was brought on as Obama's VP for that reason.

422
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 2: Is is wild when he is stunning stuff.

423
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,239
Speaker 3: I just I don't think we talk enough, honestly, and

424
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 3: I know it's coming out.

425
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: More and more.

426
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 3: No one was around Joe Biden more than Barack Obama.

427
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 3: And after being around Joe Biden for multiple years, Obama said, yeah,

428
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 3: I'm going with the Secretary of State, you can't be president.

429
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 3: Biden was wrong on the raid that happened in to

430
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 3: take out Osama bin Lot. I think Obama and his

431
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 3: team knew that Biden was a joke, and I think

432
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 3: the Biden being a joke factor was hidden because of COVID.

433
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 3: And again, history judges over time more accurately. I think

434
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 3: you're already starting to see a recalibration of everything that

435
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 3: Biden did wrong. We'll talk about this, We'll take some

436
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 3: of your calls, got a bunch of great talkbacks. But

437
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 3: in the meantime, Israeli citizens appreciate the generosity of our

438
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 3: nation and of people like you that have made donations

439
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 3: to help residence in need in this time of need,

440
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 3: more than anything else. Finally, Israeli citizens are being able

441
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 3: to leave their bomb shelters and get a decent night's

442
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 3: sleep after having to constantly scramble in and out of

443
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 3: that situation. And the International Fellowship of Christians Jews on

444
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 3: the ground preparing large scale distributions of life saving food,

445

Speaker 3: first aid and emergency kits for Israel's most vulnerable people.

Speaker 3: Fellowship also making sure hospitals emergency room shelters fully stop

466
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 2: for a NATO summit and going through some of the

467
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 2: more important things on the national security front there. Of course,

468
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 2: the President very much wants our NATO allies to meet

469
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 2: their financial contribution thresholds, which almost none of them, I

470
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 2: think a couple of them maybe have stepped it up,

471
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,719
Speaker 2: but very few of them were making those kinds of

472
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 2: contributions to their own defense. Mind you, this is about

473
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 2: spending a portion of GDP, of their GDP on their

474
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 2: own ability to contribute to NATO and therefore to the

475
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 2: defense of these individual nations. And so that's a big

476
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 2: part of this. But this was interesting. I think you're

477
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 2: gonna see some memes about this. One at the Hague

478
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 2: Clay in the Netherlands. This is clip six. The NATO

479
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 2: chief do you see this refer to Trump as daddy

480
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 2: play six.

481
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 8: They fought like hell and then they said let's stop,

482
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 8: and they're gonna build themselves.

483
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 2: And I really see it as sticking.

484
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: I mean, we may do papers on it.

485
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 6: Marco.

486
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 8: Maybe we're gonna do papers. I don't even know if

487
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 8: you need them. They're not gonna be fighting each other

488
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 8: that they've had it. They've got a big fight like

489
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 8: two kids at a school yard. You know, they fight

490
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 8: like hell. You can't stop them. Let him fight for

491
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 8: about two three minutes. Then it's easy to stop them.

492
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: And sometimes languages. He is strong.

493
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 2: If everyone said all you have to use a certain word,

494
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 2: I mean he kind of was Afra I would say,

495
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 2: called Trump daddy. That's what his report is a little

496
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 2: more of like he's playing along with the analogy there.

497
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 2: But here, here's another moment. Here's Lithuanian, the Lithuanian president.

498
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna pretend that I know how to

499
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,719
Speaker 2: say his name. This is cut seven, who has a

500
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 2: new NATO motto that he wanted to discuss play it.

501
00:27:55,160 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 9: I think we should choose the motto make NATO great again.

502
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 9: I would like to send my gratitude to President Donald Trump,

503
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 9: because that's out his engagement. I can imagine that would

504
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 9: discuss probably the level of two point five percent, with

505
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 9: no clear outcome and positive outcome. Probably those discussions will

506
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 9: lead to nothing.

507
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 2: So clay Trump's mark on NATO is very clear. I

508
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 2: remember in the first term there were a lot of

509
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 2: people whose objection was that they said that Trump was

510
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 2: going to destroy NATO and he was so horrible for it.

511
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 2: And I got the whole North Atlantic Treaty organization mobilizing

512
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 2: to spend more, to prepare more, to be able to

513
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 2: defend more. And Trump has been a huge part of

514
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 2: that shift, really the leader of that shift.

515
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

516
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 3: Look, there was a decision made that the United States

517
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 3: was going to protect the rest of the world, and

518
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 3: so the rest of the world didn't have any obligation

519
00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 3: to have substantial military assets. I mean, this is certainly

520
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 3: the case with Canada, which basically has no military because

521
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 3: they are freeloading on the fact that they feel as

522
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 3: if the United States will protect them no matter what.

523
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: And that's true.

524
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 3: Look at Canada's military spending, look at the number of

525
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 3: people that they have in uniform. They are effectively of

526
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 3: the opinion that they have no danger because they happen

527
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 3: to border the United States. And there was that belief

528
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 3: in many of the NATO countries that, to build on

529
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 3: the analogy that was being made there, Trump and the

530
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 3: United States was the daddy of Europe and they didn't

531
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 3: have to spend money on any of their own defense

532
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 3: because the United States had their back. And that's something

533
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,719
Speaker 3: that frankly, a lot of American leadership has wanted to

534
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 3: foster for some period of time to allow that to

535
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 3: sort of become ingrained. And Trump said, why would we

536
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 3: continue to be the world's policeman, Why would we continue

537
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 3: to be effectively your security guards? And you're going to

538
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 3: have to spend money, and that seems totally rational. I

539
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 3: got a question for you also coming out of this,

540
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 3: this news has just broken recently this is, you know,

541
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 3: with your intelligence background, should there be an investigation on

542
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 3: the leaking of this high level intelligence sort of an

543
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 3: opinion that was given to CNN and the New York Times?

544
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 3: Is that worthwhile? Is that useful? Should it be something

545
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 3: that was not published in those newspapers based on your background?

546
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 2: The leak investigation is always such a hotly contested and

547
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 2: charged issue, and you can tell based on whether people

548
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 2: think that the person is a quote whistleblower or a leaker. Right,

549
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 2: that's one that's always the way those terms are used

550
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 2: is very much whom or what I like and whom

551
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 2: and what I don't like. So I think that's a

552
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 2: big piece of it. I think that in this case,

553
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 2: you know, the thing about leaks, there's leaks that they

554
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 2: image sources and methods that can put lives and national

555
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 2: security at risks. And there's leaks that are more political

556
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 2: in nature. To talk about the damage done to the

557
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 2: nuclear facilities though this is this is and relying on

558
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 2: classified sources to do it and telling the media and

559
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 2: trying to shape a narrative. You know, you are breaking

560
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 2: your oath to protect classified information, right, So this isn't

561
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 2: you know?

562
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: There are always your.

563
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 2: Judgment calls about this kind of stuff, like, is this

564
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 2: someone sharing their opinion about whether something's a good idea.

565
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 2: I mean, that's generally not something that is a national

566
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 2: security risk are classified. But if you're sharing an opinion

567
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 2: based on information very clearly that is derived from classified

568
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 2: sources and that is against regulations, you shouldn't be doing it.

569
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 2: And no one person in the Defense Intelligence Agency should

570
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 2: think that he or she should be trying to shape

571
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 2: US foreign policy by using the media as attack dogs

572
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 2: against Trump based off of classified sources.

573
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: Right.

574
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 2: That's so that's a long way of saying, yeah, I

575
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 2: think they should try to chase down this leak. The

576
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 2: person should at a minimum be fired. It's very hard

577
00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 2: to find leakers, very hard to prove that someone is

578
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 2: a leaker. So you know, we still don't know who

579
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 2: gave the Supreme Court the Donalds Court, so, you know,

580
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 2: just to give you a sense of it, yeah, I

581
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 2: can say we should find the leaker, but it's very

582
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 2: hard to do.

583
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 3: And that is a good point because there's only roughly

584
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 3: one hundred people and that may be too many who

585
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 3: could have ever leaked that information in the Supreme Court.

586
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 3: How many people do you think, and that's the of course,

587
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 3: the Dobbs decision coming out before the Dobbs decision was released,

588
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 3: which thankfully didn't get Brett Kavanaugh assassinated, but did provoke

589
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 3: the motive of until the opinion is published. If you

590
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 3: kill a member of the Supreme Court, it's scary, then

591
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 3: the opinion doesn't go into effect. And Biden would have

592
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 3: had the opportunity because he controlled the Senate at the time,

593
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 3: to replace Brett Kavanaugh and theoretically preserve Roby Wade. That

594
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 3: was the logic behind why all this was leaked, I

595
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 3: believe in addition to putting pressure on people to change

596
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 3: their opinions, let me ask you this, how many people

597
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 3: do you think would have had the ability to know

598
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 3: and see this report? In other words, when you conduct

599
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 3: an investigation, the first thing you have to figure is

600
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 3: how many people had eyes on it. How many people

601
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 3: had the ability to contact the New York Times CNN

602
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 3: with a report like this. Is it one hundred, is

603
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 3: it a thousand? How many people out there do you

604
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 3: think would have seen this report to the extent that

605
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 3: it is accurate that they have conveyed on that report,

606
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 3: Because that tells you how hard it is to track

607
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 3: somebody down just based on how many eyeballs are on it.

608
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's very it's very tough to know. And

609
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 2: remember there's going to be a lot of different cables

610
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 2: coming in and out damage assessments that are on the

611
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 2: classified channels, and so you know, this is where you

612
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 2: get into more of a mosaic theory of how specific

613
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 2: was the information and how much of this was someone

614
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 2: getting from one report versus another, And without obviously have

615
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: no access to any of this stuff, so I can't

616
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 2: speak to the specificity that was leaked, and that that

617
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 2: obviously would go toward how easy it would be to

618
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,399
Speaker 2: catch somebody if they get very clear details that could

619
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 2: only come from a really small, like eyes only sort

620
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 2: of report, then it's much more likely you're gonna be

621
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 2: able to find out who is involved in the league.

622
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 2: The big thing to do is usually you just pull

623
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 2: somebody's cell phone records and emails stuff, and then you

624
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 2: see them talking to New York Times reporter. Now people

625
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 2: get very you know, depending again depending on who's doing it.

626
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 2: And the First Amendment starts to get a lot of attention,

627
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 2: and people talk about the right of the public to know,

628
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 2: and this stuff can get messy quickly, so but on

629
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 2: this one, to me, it's it's egregious. And why take

630
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 2: this to the press to try to undermine the president

631
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 2: in this critical moment where we're seeing the Iranians on

632
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 2: the defensive and hoping to bring about I mean, what

633
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 2: is Trump trying to do here? Stop the threat of

634
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,879
Speaker 2: a nuclear, nuclear armed Iran and move the region forward

635
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 2: into a more peaceful place.

636
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a very noble goal. Here's what I would wonder,

637
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 3: are you to the point now where certainly we know

638
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 3: Pete Hegseth has been very upset about leaks inside of

639
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,720
Speaker 3: the Pentagon, and to his credit and to the credit

640
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 3: of everybody involved in this attack, nobody knew this was

641
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 3: close to the vest.

642
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 1: Iran seems to have been caught unaware that.

643
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 3: Certainly, this news didn't break until Trump went on social

644
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 3: media and said, hey, our planes are now out of

645
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:38,319
Speaker 3: Iranian airspace. We've successfully attacked all those things. Here is

646
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 3: one thing I wonder, do you set up fake news

647
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 3: to try to catch the leakers, Let them believe that

648
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 3: they have some information that you know is inaccurate because

649
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 3: it and start to give information to try to catch

650
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 3: the people that are an old counterintelligence technique and if

651
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 3: you were to flood, if you put in the system

652
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 3: stuff that is untrue but juicy, and he finds its

653
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:04,879
Speaker 3: way and you know, then you know based on who

654
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 3: you gave that to, right, you flush it out on

655
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 3: the other side, and see, Look, I think what's more

656
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 3: to me, what's even more important here is just that

657
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 3: the administration is able to I mean, look, Pete Haggs

658
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 3: at the Secuary Defense has been very clear on this.

659
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 3: Others have been very clear on this that they're trying

660
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 3: to that they're clear on this was a massively successful

661
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 3: strike and it has done catastrophic damage to the Iranian

662
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 3: nuclear program. And I think just it's the most important

663
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 3: thing is one that that is confirmed as true with

664
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 3: further analysis. In two, they let the public know that

665
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 3: because we are the final check on these things, like

666
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 3: we the American people should know what was the end

667
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 3: result of this and was it worth the risks that

668
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 3: were taking and the involvement here. So I want that

669
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 3: transparency from the Trump team. In terms of getting this leaker,

670
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 3: I think it's unlikely you'll get him. I think they

671
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 3: should try because you want to prevent these kinds of leaks,

672
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 3: and I just think it goes to the mindset of

673
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 3: some people who work inside the intelligence agencies.

674
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: That they are.

675
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 2: They're like operating under some higher power which is just

676
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 2: always get you know, get Trump, make Trump look bad,

677
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 2: whatever that is. And people have gone to prison for this,

678
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,919
Speaker 2: as we know, people have gone to prison for leaking

679
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 2: stuff that really was just meant to make Trump look bad.

680
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: On the leaking front.

681
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 3: The thing that makes the most sense to me without

682
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 3: an intelligence background at all, is when you bomb the

683
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 3: side of a mountain, it is hard to know how

684
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 3: far and the entry ways to the facility are completely

685
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 3: obliterated and you cannot get in. It is, i would imagine,

686
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 3: hard to assess how far into the interior of the

687
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:46,720
Speaker 3: mountain the overall damage goes, so until you have boots

688
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 3: on the ground, which Israel claims that they have had

689
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 3: the ability to do, to try to assess how you

690
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 3: get back inside. I would think also that if Iran

691
00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:00,439
Speaker 3: starts to unpack that nuclear facility, that would be very

692
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 3: visible and we would be able to go in again

693
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 3: and drop additional bombs as needed. In the event that

694
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 3: we have assessed that we didn't get the full attack

695
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 3: success level, that we had hoped we were going to

696
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 3: be able to. We'll take some of your costs. By

697
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 3: the way, Senator Marshall Blackburn is going to join us

698
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 3: at the bottom of the hour. It's worth mentioning that

699
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 3: there is the desire to get the big beautiful Bill,

700
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 3: which has not been much talked about over.

701
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 1: The past few weeks.

702
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 3: It has moved to the backburner given all the other stories.

703
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 3: But Trump's signature legislative goal and achievement is getting closer

704
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 3: and closer to fruition. We will talk with Senator Blackburn

705
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,399
Speaker 3: at the bottom of this hour what she thinks about

706
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,840
Speaker 3: the timeframe as it pertains to this process. But I

707
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 3: want to tell you all about rapid radios. I'm up

710
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:01,080

711
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 3: was going to be a demand because at any point

712
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,000

Speaker 3: a lot of ice on branches, trees coming down, and

716
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 3: you want to be able to stay in touch with people.

Speaker 1: Rapid radios.

718
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:21,839

721

Speaker 6: I'm so happy to join you. Thanks.

745
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,800
Speaker 2: How are you feeling about the influx of New Yorkers

Speaker 2: that you may be getting, Senator Blackburn, based on the

747
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 2: mayor's race, do you have do you have room in

748
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 2: the great state of Tennessee. If they're if they're good

749
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 2: patriot Americans fleeing.

750
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:05,359
Speaker 6: Your way, if they are willing to leave New York

751
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 6: and Illinois and California and Massachusetts, Taxachuset's some of these

752
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 6: states and leave behind those Democrat policies and come to

753
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 6: a state like Tennessee with no state income tax, then

754
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 6: we welcome them.

755
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 3: I this is probably a question that I'm sure you

756
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 3: get all the time, but as somebody born and raised

757
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 3: in Tennessee, it's one of the questions that I get

758
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 3: most frequently from others who are born and raised in Tennessee.

759
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 3: We have data now on the twenty twenty four election,

760
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 3: and I know you, obviously as an elected official, probably

761
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: have poured over that data. And I know you've got

762
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 3: a lot of smart people in Tennessee, Florida and Texas.

763
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 3: It appears that the people moving are as a whole

764
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 3: making the states redder, so far right. So to allay

765
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,839
Speaker 3: some of those concerns that might be out there, oh

766
00:41:59,040 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 3: that is.

767
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 6: So very true. And I meet people every single day

768
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 6: play and they will say, oh, did you really stop

769
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 6: a state income tax in Tennessee? And they're amazed. You know,

770
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 6: they are accustomed to paying these exorbitant state income tax fees.

771
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,479
Speaker 6: And then you look at this issue that has come

772
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 6: up on the salt tax, and you have California and

773
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 6: New York trying to move that deduction to forty one

774
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 6: thousand dollars and say, we want it to apply to

775
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 6: everybody making under a million dollars a year, and they

776
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,959
Speaker 6: keep trying to expand it, and we keep saying, no,

777
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 6: this is an issue for your state legislature. If you

778
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 6: think the taxes are too high, go talk to them.

779
00:42:55,719 --> 00:43:00,839
Speaker 6: Tell them it's time for them to start right sizing

780
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 6: the federal government. And you don't need the federal art

781
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 6: to right size the state government. You don't need the

782
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,399
Speaker 6: federal government saying, Okay, we're going to give you an

783
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 6: extra deduction because your states cannot get their fiscal house

784
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 6: in order. But people are voting with their feet and

785
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 6: they're choosing states like Tennessee.

786
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:29,359
Speaker 2: Senator Blackburn, I see here on a Fox story that

787
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: you spend some time doing ride alongs and seeing firsthand

788
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 2: what the mission of Immigration and Customs Enforcement looks like

789
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 2: these days. What's going on with it? What did you see,

790
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,280
Speaker 2: and what do the American people need to know about

791
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 2: the Trump Administration's interior immigration enforcement efforts.

792
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:55,320
Speaker 6: Our Homeland security investigators and our ICE agents are working

793
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 6: about seventy five hours a week right now. They are

794
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 6: putting in the time. It takes a lot of time

795
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 6: and in order to apprehend these individuals that have orders

796
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 6: of deportation, that are criminal, illegal aliens and meeting with them,

797
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 6: talking with them before we started the ride alongs. That

798
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 6: was so instructive to me now seeing how hard they

799
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 6: work as they surveil individuals and make certain that they're

800
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 6: in a public space, they're not inside a house when

801
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 6: they apprehend them. It is something that takes a lot

802
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:43,319
Speaker 6: of time. We were surveilling someone who was a convicted

803
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 6: child molester and had come into the US, and I

804
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 6: have not met one single person that says, I am

805
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 6: really hopeful that we're going to have some trende Uragua

806
00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 6: MS thirteen or other violent games moving to our apartment

807
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 6: complex or into our community. Are by the house that's

808
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 6: for sale down the street, they are hopeful they're going

809
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 6: to get a family that's got babysitters or kids that

810
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 6: can play with their kids. But they're not looking for

811
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 6: drug dealer, sex traffickers, gang members, are convicted criminals to

812
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 6: buy those homes and move into their neighborhood or their community.

813
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 6: And ICE is working very hard to rid our communities

814
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 6: of those individuals and to see them deported back to

815
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,280
Speaker 6: their home countries.

816
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 3: Center Blackburn, we just saw that there's people throwing fits

817
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 3: inside of the capital as the big beautiful bill advances.

818
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 3: There's been talk that John Thune, Senate majority leader, is

819
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 3: holding everybody there to get the votes done. What's the

820
00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:59,319
Speaker 3: timeframe so far as you can tell, I know there's

821
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 3: going to be a lot going on. When are you

822
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 3: expecting it to pass? What are you expecting it to

823
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 3: look like for people wondering out there.

824
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 6: I first of all, it is going to be the

825
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 6: largest tax cut in American history. That is what this

826
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,319
Speaker 6: bill will give you. It will make those twenty seventeen

827
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:21,400
Speaker 6: tax cuts permanent, the largest tax cut in history. Also,

828
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 6: no tax on tips over time, and my provision which

829
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 6: will hold our senior citizens harmless when it comes to

830
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 6: paying that tax on Social Security, which I have tried

831
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 6: to get rid of for years. So no tax on

832
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 6: tips overtime social Security. In addition to that, if you

833
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 6: are a freeloader, a fraudster, an illegal alien, you do

834
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 6: not deserve Medicare or Medicaid benefits, and we are going

835
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 6: to make certain you were removed from those roles so

836
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 6: we can strengthen those programs and have them there for

837
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:11,240
Speaker 6: the people that deserve them. So the prospects look very good.

838
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 6: Everybody is united in getting President Trump's agenda across the

839
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:21,240
Speaker 6: finish line, working out some of the final details, getting

840
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 6: some of the final scoring is where we are right now.

841
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 3: And so you expect for President Trump, he's been wanting

842
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 3: to get it signed by July fourth or thereabouts. You

843
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,440
Speaker 3: expect sometime around July fourth, yes, I.

844
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 6: Think you'll see him signing it by July fourth.

845
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 2: Oh wow, excellent, that's really good news.

846
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: We certainly hope that that gets done.

847
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 6: People would like to get the largest tax cut in

848
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:51,359
Speaker 6: history sign filled delivered by President Donald Trump in time

849
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 6: for their Independence Day celebration.

850
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 2: Senator Blackburn, so are there any last minute issues that

851
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 2: are still being hammered out or does it seem like

852
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 2: a pretty clear path to get that big, beautiful bill

853
00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 2: done before the fourth of July holiday.

854
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,479
Speaker 6: Oh, there are always some little lucians that are going

855
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 6: to be hammered out, and we're still waiting on some

856
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 6: scoring from CBO. And as I say, why don't we

857
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 6: wait on these people? They're always wrong, Their numbers are

858
00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:30,319
Speaker 6: never right. So we'll finish with those details during the

859
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 6: rest of the day and then hopefully we can move

860
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,959
Speaker 6: to Klocher, tomorraw on this thing.

861
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:37,840
Speaker 1: Outstanding stuff. Center Blackburn.

862
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 3: We appreciate the time, and we look forward to that

863
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 3: bill getting passed and President Trump's agenda continuing to be executed.

864
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,560
Speaker 6: You got it take care by now for sure.

865
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 3: Look, we were just talking about some of the challenges

866
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,719
Speaker 3: that come with being a parent. In fact, Buck's new

867
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,400
Speaker 3: dad I've got three kids. Last night they were fighting.

868
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 3: I couldn't get them to stop fighting, and eventually I

869
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:01,919
Speaker 3: had to just grab one of them and be like, hey,

870
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 3: stop wrestling, keep your hands off each other. It's unbelievable.

871
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 3: And if you got kids or grandkids, you know what

872
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 3: I'm talking about. And much of what you do in

873
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 3: life is about trying to give them the best possible opportunity.

874
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 3: Whatever you do, have you thought about what will happen

875
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,879
Speaker 3: after you are gone. Are your kids and your grandkids

876
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 3: going to be able to handle the wishes that you

877
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,319
Speaker 3: would care about the most? Or are you concerned that

878
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 3: they'll end up fighting over what you have left behind

879
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 3: and what your wishes might be. Why not go ahead

880
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 3: and solve it. You know only thirty percent of people

881
00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,799
Speaker 3: have a trust in a will. You can get this done.

882
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 3: It doesn't have to be complicated. You spend your whole

883
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 3: life trying to make sure that your family is taken

884
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 3: care of. Don't you want to limit what they're fighting

885
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 3: about when you are gone to the best of your ability.
