1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:10,039 Speaker 2: Ooh, Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show Wednesday edition 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 2: of the program. 5 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 3: We hope that all of you are. 6 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 2: Having a fantastic start to your day, and we've got 7 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 2: a lot of topics to discuss. Kevin McCarthy has announced 8 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,240 Speaker 2: just in the last what hour or so that he 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 2: is going to be leaving Congress. He was the Speaker 10 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: of the House, he was removed, and now he is 11 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 2: going to be leaving Congress. So we will see what 12 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 2: exactly the future has for him, whether there's anything in 13 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 2: the political universe, but certainly the overall majority of Republicans 14 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 2: in the House, given that Santos has been voted out, 15 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 2: continues to decline and make doing anything difficult. The fourth 16 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: Republican debate and potentially the final debate of the primary 17 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: season with Chris Christy, with Vivek Ramaswami, with Nicki Haley, 18 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 2: and with Ron DeSantis on the stage, will be tonight 19 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: on News Nation, I believe is the station, and to 20 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 2: be fair, Buck, I'm gonna have to look and see 21 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: if I even have News Nation to see whether or 22 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 2: not I can even watch this thing, And I know 23 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 2: a lot of you are going to be running around 24 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 2: because it's a holiday season. I've got a holiday party 25 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: to go to too, so I might have to DVR 26 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: this thing. But I bet the viewership, given the fact 27 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: that it's going to be hard to find for many 28 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 2: people and this network is, and also the fact that 29 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 2: it's happening in the middle of the holiday season, is 30 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 2: going to mean that it is substantially lower viewership. Then 31 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: I bet fewer people watch this than watch DeSantis Newsom 32 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: last week in what was the big time throw down there. 33 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 2: But we've got a lot to get into. Riley Gaines 34 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: testified about transgender participation in sports. There's some great clips 35 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: that we want to dive into. The will break down 36 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: the fourth of the debates and see whether or not 37 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: we think there's any significance or anyone has anything in 38 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 2: particular to gain as we try to determine who might 39 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: be the alternative to Donald Trump in the sense that 40 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 2: we're ever gonna get down to a second alternative. But Buck, 41 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 2: I want to play some audio from a hearing yesterday 42 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: that involved many of the presidents of the so called 43 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 2: most elite universities in the country testifying about anti Semitism 44 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 2: on campus. 45 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: And if you haven't heard these clips, I think. 46 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: It's kind of staggering, and I've got several different thoughts 47 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 2: on it. I bet you do too, Buck. But here, 48 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: let's go ahead and play cut five. This is at 49 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: least stephonic shaming college presidents. Just listen to this audio. 50 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: I think if you haven't heard it already, your jaw 51 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: may well drop. 52 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 3: Listen. 53 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 4: So is your test mony that you will not add sir? 54 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 5: Yes? 55 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: If it uh? 56 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 3: Is this yes or no? 57 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 4: If the speech becomes conduct, it can be harassment. Yes, 58 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 4: conduct meaning committing the act of genocide. The speech is 59 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 4: not harassment. This is unacceptable, Miss Micguil and doctor Gay 60 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 4: at Harvard. Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate 61 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 4: Harvard's rules of bullying and harassment? 62 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 3: Yes? 63 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 6: Or no? 64 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: It can be depending on the context. 65 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 4: What's the context? 66 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 7: Targeted as an individual? 67 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 4: It's targeted at Jewish students, Jewish individuals. Do you understand 68 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: your testimony is dehumanizing them? Do you understand that dehumanization 69 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 4: is part of anti Semitism? I will ask you one 70 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 4: more time. Calling for the genocide of Jews violates Harvard 71 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 4: Code of conduct correct. 72 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: Again, it depends on the context. 73 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 4: It does not depend on the context. The answer is yes, 74 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 4: and this is why you should resign. These are unacceptable 75 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 4: answers across the board. 76 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: Okay, boy gay Clay, Yeah, so so much. 77 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 8: Here university presidents have discovered First Amendment absolutism and context 78 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 8: and nuance and all of these different really important things 79 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 8: that make it hard to give clear answers and tell 80 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 8: people what's really going on here. Let me just there's 81 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 8: a few ways we could run this experiment to get 82 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 8: to the real answers. One is imagine for a moment 83 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 8: that we weren't We weren't in the midst of this 84 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 8: situation of Israel and Hamas and the Palestinians and Gaza 85 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 8: and all the anti Semitism is going on under just 86 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 8: normal times. If you had the president of Harvard or 87 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 8: the president of UPenn or any of these schools, and 88 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 8: you said, just calling for the genocide of filling the blood, 89 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 8: calling for the genocide of Native Americans. Yes, I know, 90 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 8: they'd say, well that already happened a long time ago, 91 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 8: but I mean calling for it today. Would that be 92 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,679 Speaker 8: a violation of your code of conduct at the school? 93 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 3: Every single university presence. 94 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 8: Not only would they be saying yes, of course, but 95 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 8: they would get indignant and very outraged at the suggestion 96 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 8: that anybody could say that and get away with it, 97 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 8: and notice on this issue because they have little pro 98 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 8: hamas lunatics running around their campuses, and because a lot 99 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 8: of the elite schools have taken huge sums of money 100 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 8: over the last ten or fifteen years from Gulf countries, 101 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 8: from the Saudis, from the Amoradis. That's a whole other 102 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 8: part of this. All of a suddenly they're saying it 103 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 8: all depends on the context. No outrage, no anger at 104 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 8: the question, no anger at the notion that people would 105 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 8: be calling for genocide. 106 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 3: I think we all see exactly what's going on here. 107 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: Well, I think what Jewish people are learning is they're 108 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,799 Speaker 2: basically seen as white people and there is no protection 109 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: for anti white speech on campus. In fact, it's actually encouraged. 110 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 2: And I look, I am a free speech absolutely. 111 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 3: Could I just throw something young. 112 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 8: Because I think it's important cleave what you're saying. I 113 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 8: would have to throw in the proviso for a protected group. Yeah, 114 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 8: what would the university president say? But to your point, 115 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 8: if you were again take it out of the context 116 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 8: of this hearing, but under normal times, if you asked 117 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 8: the president of Harvard, should would you be able to 118 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 8: say that there should be a the destruction of whiteness 119 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 8: is a worthy goal in America? They would all say, yeah, 120 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 8: that's covered by free speech, correct. I mean, I am 121 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 8: a free speech absolutist. So if they were going to 122 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 8: apply this policy evenly to all speech, then I would say, okay, 123 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 8: that I understand the concept. 124 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 3: Right. But let me just give you an example. 125 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: In the immediate aftermath of George Floyd's the video that 126 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 2: went viral, if any of these elite college presidents had 127 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:59,119 Speaker 2: had students march on their campus saying that police needed 128 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 2: to kill more black black people, that they were in 129 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: favor of police killing more black people all over America, 130 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 2: that was the march, right, Because when you're calling for genocide, 131 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 2: you are calling for the actual elimination of an entire 132 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: race of people. So if you had had many students 133 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: decide that they were going to walk through Yale's campus, 134 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: Harvard's campus, Columbia's campus, MIT's campus, all these different university presidents, 135 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: Harvard's campus, but I didn't say it. If you had 136 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 2: had a student group organized and walking through basically a 137 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 2: modern day KKK. Let's say, would they let the KKK 138 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 2: organize on any of these campuses, and would students be 139 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 2: allowed to march through campus demanding the murder of black 140 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 2: black people all over the country and supporting the police 141 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: killing black people. The answer is no, they would never 142 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: allow this, and I think Dybuck would find any student 143 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: that was involved and they would immediately kick them out 144 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 2: of campus. 145 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: I fail to see. 146 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 2: From a purely free speech analysis, how you can distinguish 147 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 2: between that and someone walking through a campus arguing for 148 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 2: the genocide of Jewish people. And if you can't distinguish 149 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 2: between the two, then really what should happen is these 150 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 2: university presidents, I think, should have to answer for why 151 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: their speech protections fluctuate depending on who is being attacked 152 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: and or who is speaking, because that is not a 153 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: commitment to free speech principles, that is a context determinant 154 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 2: endorsement of speech. 155 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 3: I do think it's. 156 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 8: Really interesting as well to see that there's a lot 157 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 8: of expectation in this country of racial solidarity from minorities 158 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 8: with the Palestinians and fascinating and not with the Jewish 159 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,479 Speaker 8: people you have faced. 160 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 3: Most Jewish people. 161 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 2: Are seen that You're right one hundred percent, but they're 162 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: seen as white and they're learning that. 163 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 8: This is my point is that is that the it's 164 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 8: a skin color issue, truly a skin color issue. 165 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 3: That ignores the fact. 166 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 8: That there are a lot of Jews who are you know, 167 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 8: you would not know that they are not white, or 168 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 8: they're you know, they're Middle Eastern or they're Ethiopian. I mean, 169 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 8: but I keep going back to that, and it doesn't 170 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 8: even in this context. They're ignorance. We just take their 171 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 8: ignorance for granted at some level on this right, they 172 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 8: don't know these kids marching around the White House interns, 173 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 8: which we'll talk about maybe in a minute. They don't 174 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 8: even understand the real racial dynamics of Israel and the. 175 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: West Bank and the Gaza strip. 176 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 8: But you can tell that there is this expectation of 177 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 8: racial solidarity to the Palestinians who are considered brown. Right, 178 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 8: this is the perception I'm talking about, perception the brown 179 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 8: Palestinians must have the solidarity of black, brown people in 180 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 8: the West. That is how the left views this. They 181 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 8: don't even get too deep into Muslim Jewish that that's 182 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 8: actually a secondary level of analysis for them. And you 183 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 8: see that that is, you know, in this country, the 184 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 8: sort of toxicity of racial politics has now become such 185 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 8: that it extends into other you know, other analysis and 186 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 8: other things where you would think it wouldn't be the 187 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 8: primary issue, but now it is. Now now all of 188 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 8: a sudden, raised Trump's religion in the oppression situation or 189 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 8: you know, the way they gave oppression by the way, 190 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 8: Sonny Houston, not a surprise at all, of course, Sonny 191 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 8: View expressing her her view, pardon me on this one, 192 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 8: your solidarity, I bet with the university press. 193 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 3: It's funnylay you say that. 194 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 8: I was just thinking, I just see that we have 195 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 8: a cut from Sunny hostin on the View, and why 196 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 8: is it that I know that she's going to be 197 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 8: defending the university press, who are taking a very different 198 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 8: approach to leave the space open on their campuses so 199 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 8: that hamas apologist maniacs can spew their anti Semitism as 200 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 8: much as they want. 201 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 3: We know this because well we know how they roll 202 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 3: over at the View. This is cut eight play it. 203 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 9: So when we're talking about this one on one type 204 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 9: of thing, yes, that is when that conduct leads to 205 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 9: harassment and could be actionable by the university. And that's 206 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 9: exactly what hard has it said you have to commit 207 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 9: genocide to be able to condemn genocidal language like that's 208 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 9: a that's a dangerous slippery slow Yeah. But again, use 209 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 9: of that type of example is really inflammatory and it 210 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 9: does that actual being used on college campus, it dissorts 211 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 9: what the law is. The law protects that kind of language, 212 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 9: and in my opinion, in my opinion, college is the 213 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 9: perfect place to have these sorts of uncomfortable conversations. Even 214 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 9: the English students don't feel comfortable in The ACLU said 215 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 9: that the Supreme Court cannot prevent speech that is likely 216 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 9: to provide a hostile response. 217 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 6: Said this, on any other community on Earth other than Jews, 218 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 6: I would be canceled ten times to Sunday. 219 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: Yes, Yes, that's was that, Alyssa Pharr Griffin, to her credit, correct, Look, 220 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 2: you can't have shifting. 221 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 3: Speech rights based on but that's what the speaker is. 222 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 8: But that's what they It's exactly, that's exactly what we 223 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 8: see here and it couldn't be any more apparent. You know, 224 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 8: all of a sudden, all of a sudden, you have 225 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 8: particularly people in the media who view this again, as 226 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 8: I say, as a as an issue of with the 227 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 8: Palestinians racial solidarity, because racial oppression is their obsession in 228 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 8: this country, so they think that that should be that 229 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 8: that is the obsession around the whole world, and that's 230 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 8: the way to view every conflict. They're they're making these claims. 231 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 8: I mean, it's laughable, Clay, what do you think the 232 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 8: president of Harvard. These are the people who say silence 233 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 8: equals violence, never mind speech equals violence. 234 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 3: And by silence. 235 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 8: Equals violence, they mean you have to take our position 236 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 8: or else you're literally killing us. 237 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 2: Micro aggressions has been a major topic of discussion on 238 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 2: college campuses, not actual aggressions, small things that occur that 239 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 2: could lead people to have hurt feelings, and then people 240 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 2: walking through campus calling for genocide. Is suddenly where they decide, oh, 241 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 2: we're going to have to protect free speech principles again. 242 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 2: If they did this for everything and everyone, I would 243 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: That's that's my position, right, You should, even though I 244 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 2: disagree with it, be able to say on college campuses 245 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: things that are inflammatory and offensive and not worry that 246 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: you're going to get canceled. If you're a teacher, not 247 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: worried if you're going to get canceled if you're a student. Right, 248 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 2: But all of a sudden to only allow these things 249 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: to be said about Jewish people shows you that how 250 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 2: broken much of our national conversation true. 251 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 3: And this is I think this is a this is 252 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: the part of this is the wake up call. 253 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 5: You know. 254 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 3: I'm down here. 255 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 8: Most of my friends in South and South Florida are 256 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 8: are Jewish, and they're conservative. 257 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: None of this is really a wake up call for them. 258 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 3: They expected all of this. 259 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 8: And but for some of the and I have some 260 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 8: liberal Jewish friends down here too, the part of this 261 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 8: that's a wake up call for them is that despite 262 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 8: the history of oppression and an actual genocide and the 263 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 8: most vile kinds of targeting of a group of people 264 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 8: for you know, immutable characteristics or for their religious faith, 265 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 8: which the Jews have been through going back to the 266 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 8: time of Pharaoh, right, I mean you go back thousands 267 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 8: of years, despite all of that, in the contemporary left 268 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 8: wing conversation, they are white and so they are the 269 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 8: bad guys in this context and everything else is irrelevant 270 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 8: to the American left and much of the European left. 271 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 3: The same thing.

This has 331 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 2: been a position that's become quite common in many young 332 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 2: people all over America, whether you're in college, whether you're 333 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 2: just active on TikTok, which while everybody wants to focus 334 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 2: on anti Semitism associated with Emon Musk and the Twitter 335 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: platform TikTok, for substantial periods of time had four times 336 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: as many pro Palestinian viral videos as they did pro Israel. 337 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: And now Joe. 338 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 2: Biden, as we have been talking with you for a 339 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: couple of months now, is finding himself in a really 340 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: difficult political setup where both Jews and Arabs historically vote 341 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 2: Democrat by fairly substantial margins thirty forty points seventy thirty 342 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 2: sixty five to thirty five something in that neighborhood, and 343 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 2: he's trying to make both of these groups happy, and 344 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 2: overwhelmingly young people and the left wing of the Democrat 345 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 2: Party are demanding that Israel not defend itself anymore, and 346 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: that there be a permanent ceasefire put in place, rather 347 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 2: than Israel be allowed to out all of the terrorists 348 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 2: and in them. And so in the White House itself. 349 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 2: Now the White House interns. Now, I'm not sure how 350 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 2: many people there are who were White House interns, but 351 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 2: for most of you out there, I think when you 352 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 2: hear White House intern the first thing that comes to 353 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: mind is Monica Lewinsky. But even leaving aside the fact 354 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 2: that you are a White House intern, the idea that 355 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 2: any intern would ever try to put political pressure on 356 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: their boss to make a decision that the boss is 357 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 2: not otherwise making. 358 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 3: Is so crazy to me. 359 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 2: To even think about. I was an intern back in 360 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: the day on Capitol Hill, in the Nashville Congressman's office, 361 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 2: Bob Klement's office, when I was a student at George 362 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 2: Washington University. Buck, you worked as an intern, maybe multiple 363 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 2: places when you were a kid coming. 364 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 8: Up, Think Tanks, Council on Foreign Relations, the Washington Institute 365 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 8: for Neary's Policy, and interns were meant to be seen 366 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 8: rarely and never heard. 367 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 3: Nobody cared. 368 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:15,479 Speaker 2: Can you imagine even thinking as an intern that you 369 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 2: were going to write an anonymous letter on any subject 370 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 2: under the sun, holding your boss accountable for some decision 371 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 2: that he or she was making. I think it's so 372 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 2: absurdly ridiculous to me that anyone would even think to 373 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 2: do this. And again, they're anonymous, so they're not even 374 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 2: putting their own names behind this. But that the interns 375 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 2: would try to bully the President of the United States 376 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 2: because they don't like a choice that. 377 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 3: He's making is so crazy to me. 378 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 2: I can't even conceptualize even thinking of doing it. When 379 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 2: I was an intern twenty some odd years ago on 380 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: Capitol Hill. 381 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, I also always want to push to the next 382 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 8: step here. Whenever someone says, whether it's these idiots or others, 383 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 8: when they start doing this, demand the demand the cease fire, 384 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 8: I always want to know, Okay, what then? I mean 385 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 8: a ceasefire is supposed to be temporary, right, it's not. 386 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 8: There's not a long term truce or our misstice here. 387 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 8: This is just gonna stop the shooting for How long 388 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 8: does Hamas get to get away with this? Is that 389 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 8: what they mean? Does Israel not get to defend itself? 390 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 8: Is that what they mean? They never get into specifics 391 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 8: because you know, unfortunately there is still this very common 392 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 8: tactic where the problem is not the terrorism. The problem 393 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 8: is the fighting against the terrorism. I remember from from 394 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 8: al Qaeda era. I mean, this is all the worst 395 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 8: people in this country. I'm just gonna say it. The 396 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 8: worst people in this country always find. 397 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 7: A way to be like, did we really have to 398 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 7: blow up you know on we're all lucky with a drone? 399 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 7: Or did we really have to kill bin Laden? Couldn't 400 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 7: we have like given him as constitutional rights? 401 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 8: And you know, I mean, the worst people in this 402 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 8: country always take that position and only seem to take 403 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 8: it when it's like enemies that actually want to destroy 404 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 8: the United States and civilization and everything that is good 405 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 8: and decent. When it's JA six protesters who are taking selfies, those. 406 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 7: Same people who are like, we shouldn't have shopped in laden, 407 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 7: We should have put him in a mental rehab facility, 408 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 7: those same people, all of. 409 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 8: A sudden, the same people are saying this stuff about 410 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 8: the ceasefire. Now they're like, oh, yeah, lock those J 411 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 8: six prisoners up forever. You say, wait, hold on a second, 412 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 8: I thought you were about mercy. Yeah, not so much, Clay. 413 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 2: I just am so fascinated by this intern move because 414 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 2: most of the time, when you're an intern, you know, 415 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: if you got to meet the person that you're interning with, 416 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 2: if it's a big place, you might get to shake 417 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 2: the hand, get a picture taken. At the end of 418 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 2: your internship, it's not like you're doing, by and large, 419 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 2: anything that significant to the larger ecosystem or success or 420 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 2: of the organization. 421 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 3: Well you get that. 422 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 8: First of all, the fact that just what I'm so, 423 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 8: NBC News did the story on them. Okay, so on 424 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 8: the one of the big corporate news networks was like 425 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 8: the White House intern speaking with one voice forty of them. 426 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 8: And what this indicates to me is that White House 427 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 8: interns think that in turn is something that commands respect. 428 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, which is I mean not the case. 429 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,360 Speaker 2: I mean, does Joe Biden know any And I'm not 430 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 2: detigrating Joe Biden here, He's got a really important job. 431 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 2: Does he know any intern's name in the White House? 432 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 4: You know? 433 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,959 Speaker 8: The Left does do this though, and I always find it. 434 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 8: I find it so amusing, I mean and insane. But 435 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 8: it goes to the cult like mentality around some of 436 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 8: these issues and the emotionalism of the emotional allizing of them. 437 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 8: I mean, like Greta Thunberg was going around at sixteen 438 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 8: years old lecturing the world on climate change, and Democrats 439 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 8: took this seriously. They thought they thought we should listen 440 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 8: to this person. I mean, I just wonder what's next 441 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 8: for NBC News. Like, you know, group of first graders 442 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 8: in you know, out in the Midwest say that they 443 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 8: think there should be a ceasefire too. I don't really 444 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 8: care what the first graders think about Israel Palestine. That 445 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 8: doesn't actually factor into my consciousness thinking about this. You know, 446 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 8: are they gonna. 447 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 3: Get kindergarteners to do finger paintings? About how there must 448 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 3: be a ceasefire. 449 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 2: It is funny, like they managed to get NBC News 450 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 2: to write about their letter. So somebody inside the White 451 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 2: House thought that the people who actually I mean, I 452 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 2: don't even know they. I don't think you can mail 453 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 2: things to the White House anymore. Back in the day, 454 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 2: when you were on Capitol Hill, you were on mail duty, 455 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 2: and so you would, you know, cut open every pit 456 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 2: of mail and try to organize it and get it 457 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 2: to the right places. I mean, that's what I did. 458 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 2: And then they had the anthrax scare, and so they 459 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: basically started running everything through like a different a different mechanism. 460 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 2: It took forever to get there. And I don't even 461 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 2: know can you send mail to the what you can? 462 00:24:59,000 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: Still? 463 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 2: Like the male gets delivered to the White House and 464 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 2: like they open it in the White House and go 465 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,479 Speaker 2: through it. That happens. I don't even know the answer. 466 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 2: But that's the normal job of an intern was, Hey, 467 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 2: you're going to open the mail, put the you know, 468 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 2: everybody's opinion in this file, and then you take it 469 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: to them say this. 470 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 3: And this is a whole other thing. 471 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 8: I think a lot of internships are are exploitative and 472 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 8: a total waste of people's time. 473 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 2: Well, I'm assuming they pay them now right. Most internships 474 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 2: used to be unpaid. I think they probably get paid 475 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 2: at the White House now right. 476 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 3: But this is what I'm saying. 477 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 8: If you're doing an unpaid internship, the way they get 478 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 8: around this sometimes is school credit. Look, everything is, everything 479 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 8: is specific to this situation. Are you getting school credit, 480 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 8: are you getting paid or whatever. But I'm just saying 481 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 8: you and I came up in the era. Okay, if 482 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,959 Speaker 8: you were getting I did an internship at like a 483 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,959 Speaker 8: A and R like part of a you know studio 484 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,719 Speaker 8: for what do you recording label? I did internships? 485 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 2: You know you were getting paid for any internship that 486 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: you were on the Washington Institute for Near's policy. I 487 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 2: don't think I ever got paid. I don't think I 488 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 2: ever got paid for it. I mean I was doing 489 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 2: it obviously for the experience. And look, I wouldn't I 490 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: wouldn't take it back. I was happy to be an intern. 491 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 2: But my point on it is you're actually given favorable 492 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 2: treatment to get an internship. That is, I don't think 493 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,719 Speaker 2: it happens very often that an intern is necessary. It's like, hey, 494 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let we used to do back in the 495 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 2: day before, I think they they did it away with it. 496 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 2: When I did sports talk radio, for instance, Buck we 497 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 2: would take one guy and one girl college you know, 498 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 2: juniors or seniors who wanted to be wanted to be 499 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 2: in media, and we would let them come and sit 500 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 2: in the radio studio. It was nice to have, you know, 501 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 2: additional help. But we were doing them more a favor 502 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 2: than I think they were doing us a favor. Does 503 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 2: that make sense? So that I guarantee you the White 504 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 2: House would function fine without interns. So the idea that 505 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 2: they're trying to exert political influence and power based on 506 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: being White House interns is so lappably absurd I can't 507 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 2: even hardly get over it. 508 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 8: I mean, yeah, I think this White House would function 509 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 8: the same way if Joe Biden went on vacation for 510 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 8: six months and didn't do anything. 511 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 3: So that's the scary part. 512 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 8: Look, let's let's talk about something I think is really 513 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 8: important and it's something that you can take action on 514 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 8: today that can save a life. I mean, how many 515 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 8: areas of your life can you say that about? Women 516 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 8: who are facing an unplanned pregnancy can be in a 517 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 8: frightening and lonely situation. That's true, it can be very 518 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 8: stressful and unless you were a loved one have experienced 519 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 8: at firsthand, the range of emote are difficult to describe. 520 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 8: The Preborn Network of Clinics knows this all too well, 521 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 8: and that's why they've dedicated themselves to helping women and 522 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 8: their unborn babies.

Alabama 557 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 2: gets in as the four seed, Florida State left in. 558 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 2: Left out is the five seed.

And I don't know the other two 567 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 2: moderators very well. Do you know the other two moderators 568 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: for this debate? 569 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 3: Buck like. 570 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: Eleana Johnson? Yeah, a little bit, Okay, So I don't 571 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 2: know either of them. I would bet that they are 572 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 2: not die hard sports fans. Although maybe I'm wrong, but 573 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 2: I think we'll get a reference to the college football 574 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 2: playoff from the debate stage night. So we got four candidates, 575 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 2: they are going to be up on the debate stage. 576 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 2: Trump is obviously still leading in a big way as 577 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 2: we finished off the last hour. You reference Buck a 578 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 2: report that came from a Biden fundraiser, and I am 579 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 2: paraphrasing here. Basically, Biden said that if Trump were not running, 580 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 2: he probably wouldn't run, but he feels like he has 581 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 2: to beat Trump and he's the most likely to beat Trump. 582 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 3: And again I'm paraphrasing. 583 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 2: So question for you, do you believe Joe Biden at 584 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 2: all that if Trump were to say, you know what, 585 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 2: I'm out, that Biden would actually say I'm out too. 586 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 2: Do you buy this? Do you buy this or you 587 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: think it's a convenient excuse for Biden to be able 588 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 2: to trot out. 589 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 8: I think we have him getting asked this. I think 590 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 8: this cut seventeen. Would you be running if Trump? I'll 591 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 8: answer your question, but would you be running if Trump 592 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 8: wasn't running? This cut seventeen? 593 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 3: Play I. 594 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 5: Expect so, but look he is running. 595 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: And I just have to run. 596 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 8: You no, not now, So play Biden saying I have 597 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 8: to run to your point before you asked me. 598 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 3: Do I buy this? 599 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 8: I do believe, and I get no joy out of 600 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 8: saying this. So people that disagree just telling me what 601 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 8: my assessment is. Democrats think that Biden's their best shot 602 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 8: of beating Trump. And we can look at that right 603 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 8: now and say that that's crazy. But it ain't over 604 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 8: till it's over, and they, I think, would have to 605 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 8: go with a different approach if it had been a 606 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 8: different candidate. You know, our side is very convinced that 607 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 8: Trump won in twenty twenty by and large, and that 608 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 8: he will win again. The Democrats, I can assure you, 609 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 8: are very convinced that Trump lost. They think he lost 610 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 8: Farren Square in twenty twenty and we'll lose again. That 611 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 8: is their perspective on this. Yeah, so I do think 612 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 8: that Joe Biden believes that he has the backing of 613 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 8: the Democrat machinery, not just because he's president, but because 614 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 8: they think in a matchup their best chance to defeat Trump, 615 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 8: who certainly looks like the overwhelming prohibitive favor to be 616 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 8: the nominee, they think their best shot is Joe Biden. Actually, 617 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 8: I actually do believe that that is their assessment. I 618 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 8: don't think that that's just that's just bluster at this point. 619 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 2: Well, and your point on this is if they are 620 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 2: actually confident, and I question how confident they can be. 621 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 2: We talked about this yesterday because we should mention that 622 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 2: they sent out the jury questionnaires on the Washington d C. 623 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 3: Trial. 624 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 2: I saw our friend Julie Kelly tweet that out yesterday 625 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 2: afternoon or evening. If I'm not mistaken to begin the 626 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 2: process of trying to corral the future jurors who would 627 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: sit on the Jan six related case that Jack Smith 628 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 2: is bringing. And you argued that Democrats as sort of 629 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 2: their ace in the hole, so to speak, that they 630 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 2: believe that any conviction of Trump for felony charges is 631 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: going to destroy his candidacy, and there is polling to 632 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 2: reflect that that would be true. Now I'm going against 633 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: the polling in this respect. I think Democrats have to 634 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 2: be getting nervous because I think if you told Democrats 635 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 2: a year ago that Trump would be up in all 636 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 2: of the swing states, that Trump would be above Biden 637 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 2: in many of the national polls that are running, and 638 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 2: that Trump even would have the lead that he does 639 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 2: in the Republican primary, I think they would have been stunned, 640 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 2: and I think they would be super apprehensive about what 641 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,439 Speaker 2: that foretells for the next eleven months now if they 642 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 2: truly do believe that they're going to get a conviction, 643 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 2: which if that case goes to trial in DC, I 644 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 2: think it's virtually certain that Trump would be convicted of something. 645 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 3: Based on the jury pool. 646 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 2: I think the question just becomes how much does that 647 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 2: court decision alter the trajectory of the race, because I 648 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: don't think Atlanta and I don't think Miami are going 649 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 2: to get finished before we actually have people going out 650 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 2: in voting. 651 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 8: My guess at this point is still that they believe 652 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 8: the legal the legal onslaught or the legal ambush against Trump, 653 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 8: whatever you want to call it, trap that they have 654 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 8: set for him, will effectively deliver the race to Joe Biden, 655 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 8: and then everything else will just be candidate by candidate. 656 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 8: They have a tough time in the Senate regardless. So 657 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 8: Democrats know they're going to have a tough Senate battle ahead, 658 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,919 Speaker 8: the House is going to be very very close, likely 659 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 8: to be very very close, and they think that they 660 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 8: can pull this out because or remember the lesson of 661 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 8: twenty twenty two was, Yeah, the j six hearings and 662 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 8: the fear mongering around abortion didn't convince a lot of people, 663 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 8: but it convinced enough people and enough places that they 664 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 8: should vote for the Democrat. And that's something that I 665 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 8: think we have to keep in mind here that based 666 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 8: on the way that the two sides get dug in 667 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 8: and the narrowness of the deciding factors, if you can 668 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 8: figure out effectively what lock and what key you need, 669 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 8: and you can just get that one last tranche of 670 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 8: voters across the line in one of the states or 671 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 8: a handful of states that matters. 672 00:35:58,680 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 3: That's what will be determined. 673 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 8: So I am concerned about that because every poll people 674 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 8: are now looking all the poles saying, look at how 675 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 8: bad Biden is, Look how much Trump is winning. 676 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 3: I say, that's great. 677 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 8: We should probably see more polls on what happens if 678 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 8: Trump gets convicted in one of these trials. Because the 679 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 8: one pole that we've seen on it, I think it 680 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:17,439 Speaker 8: was a Siena pole. 681 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 7: Am I right on that. 682 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember. 683 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 2: I think it was was in a New York Times, Paul, Yeah, 684 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 2: you're right, I mean it was in recent history. It 685 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 2: said that everything would flip basically if Trump were convicted 686 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 2: of a felony. 687 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, that Trump loses every swing state if he's convicted 688 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 3: of a felony. 689 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 8: You and I agree that. I don't believe that, but 690 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,359 Speaker 8: I would like to see more data. Yeah, because if 691 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 8: that is true, the GOP is walking into a massive trap. 692 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 8: If that is true. 693 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 2: Yes, and that is again, if you're Biden's team, that 694 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 2: has to be what they think. The ACE in the 695 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 2: hole is I would just point out, I don't think 696 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: they ever thought they would be down like they're down 697 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 2: eleven months out. I want to play you this cut. 698 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 2: We mentioned it, I think earlier in the program for 699 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 2: end of the show. Riley gaines. She works it out kick. 700 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 2: She's great, especially when you consider that she's twenty three 701 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 2: years old. I think to have stepped into a political 702 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 2: firestorm like she has and to have handled it so well. 703 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: Her husband, Louis, by the way, is also fantastic. I 704 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 2: think I've mentioned this before. Only guy I've ever met 705 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 2: who has a totally mixed English. 706 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 3: And Southern accent. So he's from England. He's a swimmer. 707 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 2: He came to swim at the University of Kentucky, which 708 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 2: is where Riley met him, and he now lives in 709 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 2: the Nashville area, where Riley grew up and where I 710 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 2: live Buck. When you talk to him, he is fifty 711 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 2: percent English accent fifty percent Southern accent. It's one of 712 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 2: the most amazing combos I have ever seen. He's an 713 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 2: awesome dude. Riley was testifying in front of on Capitol 714 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 2: Hill in front of a congressional committee analyzing this ridiculousness 715 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:58,399 Speaker 2: of men competing as women, and she was called by 716 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 2: Summer Lee, who who? I believe buck is a congresswoman 717 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 2: from a very competitive Pennsylvania Pittsburgh area district. Maybe a 718 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 2: team can confirm that that's true. Potentially a toss up 719 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: style seat. I think I'm correcting that she's a Democrat 720 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 2: from Pennsylvania for sure. 721 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:18,359 Speaker 6: Uh. 722 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 2: Summer Lee said that Riley Gaines was transphobic, so Riley 723 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 2: decided to push back, and she said, Okay, if you're 724 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 2: gonna call me a transphobe, then I'm gonna call you 725 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 2: a misogynist. And it just throws the entire Uh. You 726 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 2: need to see the video, but I think it'll play 727 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 2: well on audio two. It throws the entire hearing into 728 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 2: an uproar. 729 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 3: Listen. 730 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 6: Inclusion cannot be prioritized over safety and fairness, and Ranking 731 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 6: Member Lee, if my testimony makes me transphobic, then I 732 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 6: believe your opening monologue makes you a misogynist. Thank you, 733 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 6: Uh mentaire, excuse me. 734 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,919 Speaker 9: I moved to have the gentle woman's words taken down. 735 00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 2: The committee will suspend manam she's. 736 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 3: In gay personalities? 737 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 6: Can I just ask how it's fair to be called transphobic. 738 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:09,919 Speaker 8: There's a thing I would say, men disguising themselves as 739 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 8: women are engaging in personalities order and hand hand order order. 740 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 8: Let's let's get a ruling that cheer. 741 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 3: I'm move to draw the punt of order. 742 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 4: Thank you, miss Lee. 743 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 2: So I don't know buck exactly what she she wanted to. 744 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 2: The general rule is that you are not allowed to 745 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 2: insult people at congressional hearings. So she called Riley Gaines 746 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 2: a transphobe. And then Riley Gaines said, well, wait a minute, 747 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 2: if you can call me transphobic, I'm gonna call you 748 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 2: a misogynist. And then it was like she was looking up. 749 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 2: You can see the video, like her staffers all come 750 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 2: together around and they're they're reviewing whether or not this 751 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 2: is a permissible or impermissible and then finally she withdraws 752 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 2: her motion. So I would love to know exactly what 753 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 2: happened there, but to me, it perfectly distills sort of 754 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 2: this name calling era where if you come back and 755 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 2: actually give them some of their own medicine, their arguments 756 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 2: collapse in a hurry. 757 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 3: So yeah, props. 758 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 8: Also, whether it's islamo phobia or transphobia, the Left does 759 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 8: this thing of the phobias. 760 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:12,240 Speaker 3: All the time. 761 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 8: I don't have an irrational fear, nor do these other 762 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 8: people that are all on the conservative side of this. 763 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 8: I don't have an irrational fear of any of this. 764 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 8: Uh So, phobia is just the wrong suffix for the situation. Yeah, 765 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 8: I just don't think that you know a guy with 766 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 8: you know, male genitalia and testosterone. I mean, it's very 767 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 8: obvious play against women and women's sports. The notion that 768 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 8: that makes me afraid, I'm not afraid. There's no fear 769 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 8: here to see what I'm saying. And this is the 770 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 8: term they always use, like you're trusted point toobic. No, 771 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:43,839 Speaker 8: I'm not scared of these people. I think a lot 772 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 8: of them need help. Actually, I think a lot of 773 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 8: them need mental health and counseling. But there's no part 774 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 8: of me goes, oh my gosh, I'm scared. I'm definitely 775 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 8: not scared. Nor is Riley getting scared of the transagenda. 776 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 8: I don't agree with it. 777 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great point because if you, let's say 778 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 2: you're coach league like I have done, if somebody tries 779 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 2: to bring a sixteen year old out to pitch at 780 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 2: a twelve year old baseball game. I'm not age phobic. Yeah, 781 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,280 Speaker 2: I'm just saying that the sixteen year old. The sixteen 782 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 2: year old just doesn't fit the rules. He shouldn't be 783 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 2: able to compete against twelve year olds. It's not age phobia. Well, 784 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,400 Speaker 2: it's well said, and I think it's it again. Ties 785 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 2: in with they don't actually engage in arguments. They try 786 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,760 Speaker 2: to engage in attacks, which scare people from actually engaging 787 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 2: in the marketplace of ideas and actually putting forth their opinions. 788 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 2: Which is why I think Riley has been so effective 789 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 2: and why I think she's so brave in general, for 790 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 2: the way that she's handled all this. 791 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, and you know, you know, my friends, you 792 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 8: know we're talking about Riley. We're talking about sports and competition, 793 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 8: and these days, whether you're out there's a week in 794 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 8: warrior athlete like me. I was actually playing tennis last 795 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 8: night at an adult advanced clinic on the top court. 796 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 8: No big deal, but you know, I could use a 797 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,919 Speaker 8: little extra oomphin my step, little extra juice out there 798 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 8: on the courts, and a lot of guys forel the 799 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 8: same way. Because as you get older, your testosterone starts 800 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 8: to fade, and also overall energy and vitality can be 801 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 8: a challenge. That's why Chalk is such an essential company 802 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 8: these days. For so many men. Their Male Vitality Stack 803 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 8: get increased testosteron levels by up to twenty percent in 804 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 8: just three months time.

Oh, Meed, 835 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 2: I think you're a lot like me in that you're 836 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 2: around both mine and Bucks ages. But you look around 837 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,399 Speaker 2: and from a business, would you ever believe that bud 838 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 2: Light would be giving cans with the pictures on them 839 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 2: to Dylan mulvaney and that you know, you'd go to 840 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 2: watch a superhero movie and it would like Marvel all 841 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 2: of a sudden has to have you know, trans superheroes 842 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 2: who have lesbian parents. 843 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 3: I mean I just I don't know how we ever 844 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 3: ended up here. 845 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 5: Well, a lot of it is is actually you got 846 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 5: to follow the money, just like when we find ourselves 847 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 5: in the Twilight Zone. Why are we in the Twilight Zone? Yeah, 848 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 5: As it relates to the movies, though, I like to 849 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 5: ask the question, in the last twenty years, when's the 850 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 5: last movie you saw that was negative about China or 851 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 5: the CCP. We make movies to sell to them, and 852 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 5: then we take out all that transgender stuff and then 853 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 5: they bring TikTok over backgrounds need to expose. But you're 854 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 5: absolutely right. I mean, I've just gotten sick of it. 855 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,879 Speaker 5: I'm a parent now, and for people like us who 856 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 5: have the ability, whether you guys in media or me 857 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 5: and finance, don't do something about it, How we're going 858 00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,799 Speaker 5: to look our kids in the eyes and say that 859 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:03,959 Speaker 5: we didn't stop this because look, you know you guys 860 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 5: are passionate about this too. COVID radicalized me. I mean 861 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 5: what I saw there, the lies and censorship. I mean 862 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 5: I moved from New York to Florida for freedom, and 863 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 5: I started really seeing why federalism matters. You know, you 864 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 5: have different economic and political systems New York and California, 865 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 5: the failed model versus you know, Texas or Florida. But 866 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 5: then what I started seeing was the battlefields not just 867 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 5: around policy. It's going to be about economics. That's how 868 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,280 Speaker 5: they get us with social credit scores, because the government 869 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 5: uses big tech companies and other big companies to control us. 870 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,240 Speaker 5: That wasn't going to let that happen. So my mission 871 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 5: now is to finance these companies that are going to 872 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 5: keep us free. 873 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 8: Well, Meads Buck, good to have you with us, and 874 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 8: I wanted you to take this opportunity. Just tell all 875 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 8: the folks listening across the country about where some of 876 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 8: the places are that we're already building. You know, they're 877 00:45:56,040 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 8: familiar with, you know, Rumble for example, the Fromil with 878 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 8: truth Social But give us kind of an update on 879 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 8: how the parallel and really just the truly capitalist economy 880 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:13,240 Speaker 8: and the conservative values accepted economy is going at this point, 881 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 8: Like where are we racking up some progress and some momentum. 882 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 5: The first thing is it's the top of the first right, 883 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 5: We are just getting started here. ESG started becoming a 884 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 5: phrase in twenty ten and has become a multi trillion 885 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 5: dollar scam. Okay, it also destroys economic value, but it's 886 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 5: really used in order to control us. As I was saying, 887 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 5: as it relates to this parallel economy that you referenced, 888 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:43,320 Speaker 5: we call it the EIG economy, so we mean entrepreneurship, 889 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 5: innovation and growth. And yes we have our own acronym 890 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:51,760 Speaker 5: against ESG, it's EIG. This ecosystem basically has three buckets 891 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 5: that we invest in through our fund, seventeen eighty nine Capital, 892 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,479 Speaker 5: which is the vehicle that gave Tucker Carlson his money 893 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,760 Speaker 5: to get his new company started up. The spoken about 894 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 5: the first bucket is exactly what you're saying, buck it's 895 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:07,040 Speaker 5: the replication businesses. You have an existing company that's co 896 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 5: opted or has gone totally woke, and we need a 897 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 5: response to that. So yes you have Rumble, which is 898 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 5: a response to YouTube Black Rifle, copy of response to Starbucks, 899 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 5: the company we took public, Public Square that I now 900 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 5: sit on the board of which is a response to Amazon. 901 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 5: But that's going to continue at every part of our economy. 902 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 5: We need our own payment processors. When you see PayPal 903 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 5: finding people for what they determine is misinformation, we need 904 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:36,400 Speaker 5: our own banks. When you see the truckers up in Canada, 905 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 5: lose their bank accounts because they want to protest these 906 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 5: unnecessary vaccine mandates right or asset managers like the veck 907 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 5: was doing with Strive. So that's the replication economy. We're 908 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 5: going to need to make sure that we're insulated so 909 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 5: we cannot get canceled in the private sector so they 910 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 5: deperson us. So all that stuff has to happen. And 911 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 5: that's all areas that we're investing in and to help 912 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 5: companies like publish, Squareco Public or Tucker which is a 913 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 5: response to cable news. The second bucket of EIG is 914 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 5: how do we enhance American prosperity. How are we investing 915 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 5: in like defense tech. We've already made an investment in 916 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 5: a company called Firehawk in Texas. They develop rocket fuel 917 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:22,720 Speaker 5: cheaper than the competitors for missiles. How are we investing 918 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 5: in things that are going to onshore manufacturing. Don't continue 919 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 5: to make us totally dependent and get all our stuff 920 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 5: from China, who's our enemy. And then finally bucket three, 921 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 5: there's a lot of great companies out there that ESG 922 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 5: has ruined because the ESG overloads tell us we're not 923 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,800 Speaker 5: gonna give them any money because they're bad. I'm thinking 924 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 5: things in fossil fuels, ammunition guns. I'm going to go 925 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 5: invest in those companies because they're great businesses that have 926 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 5: really good financial profiles, but they can't even get a 927 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 5: loan from a bank. Those are the three buckets we're 928 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,120 Speaker 5: going to play in in what we call EIG, which 929 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 5: is going to fight back against ESG. 930 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 2: I agree with everything you're doing, and I think this 931 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:03,280 Speaker 2: is really really important, and I think increasingly our audience 932 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 2: wants to be able to spend money with companies that 933 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 2: respect them. It's one thing if these companies decided, hey, 934 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 2: we're going to spend money across the entire political spectrum 935 00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 2: and we want every Republican, we want every Democrat, we 936 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:22,719 Speaker 2: want everybody to be buying our products. They're not doing that. 937 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 2: Why do you think that is? Ultimately because everything you're 938 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 2: saying I agree with. I think it does create instead 939 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,439 Speaker 2: of being angry about it. I think the best way 940 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,240 Speaker 2: to deal with anger. I did it when I started 941 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 2: my company OutKick, is to actually create an alternative right, 942 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,799 Speaker 2: go out and use entrepreneurial spirit to take advantage of 943 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 2: marketplace opportunities. But why do you think this marketplace opportunity exists. 944 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,800 Speaker 2: Why do you think I'm just throwing you know, Disney? 945 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:53,240 Speaker 2: Why would Disney not be trying to appeal to every parent, 946 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 2: regardless of what their politics are. That feels like the 947 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 2: Disney that I grew up with, or Coke or bud Light. 948 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 3: Why do you think they're making these choices? 949 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 5: Well, I think it's several reasons. I mean, one is 950 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,319 Speaker 5: just like an economic thing. Let's use The New York 951 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 5: Times for example. Did it always kind of lean slightly left? Yes, 952 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,400 Speaker 5: but we're around the same age. It wasn't like it 953 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,479 Speaker 5: is today in the nineties or even in the two thousands. Right. 954 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 5: The reason why The New York Times is not even 955 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 5: readable anymore is because it moved from an advertising general 956 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 5: model to a subscription based model. So the majority of 957 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 5: the revenue of The New York Times or any of 958 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 5: these outlets that are supposedly news now is based on subscribers. 959 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,799 Speaker 5: And what that needs is we lend ourselves to the 960 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 5: red meat of who our purchases are, who's paying that 961 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 5: eight to ninety nine a month, And so they're only 962 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,919 Speaker 5: appealing to Brooklyn and the West Coast for the people 963 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:48,480 Speaker 5: who are their subscribers. That's where they get all the 964 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 5: revenue from and now The New York Times is actually 965 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 5: wants to be, by their own admission, in entertainment business. Right, 966 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 5: They're not really reporting news. They're trying to give the 967 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 5: type of content that there's sobscribers want. So that's how 968 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 5: you start to see the problem. And then also you 969 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 5: end up having what we have now, which is this 970 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 5: tyranny of the minority, which is these crazy movements that 971 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 5: have really sprouted up basically that coincide to the election 972 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 5: of Donald Trump. Now it's extremely nefarious why all of 973 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 5: these things have started happening. What I believe to be 974 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:24,319 Speaker 5: the case is that around twenty fifteen you had two 975 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 5: populous movements taking place on both the left and the right. 976 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 5: And you remember it was Bernie Sanders who they stole 977 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 5: the election from through the DNC on one side, and 978 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:36,439 Speaker 5: of course Donald Trump on the other side. I think 979 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 5: that freaked the hell out of the establishment, the oligarchs, 980 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,839 Speaker 5: whatever you want to call them, but we know who 981 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 5: they are. And I believe that is been promoted by 982 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 5: the media and other propaganda tools at the behest of 983 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:50,399 Speaker 5: the government and the establishment to try to divide us. 984 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 5: And it's going on throughout all of human history. My 985 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:55,920 Speaker 5: family's from the Middle East. I know a lot about 986 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 5: sectarian violence that's being done by the hands of the 987 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,239 Speaker 5: people who are in charge to get other people to 988 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,319 Speaker 5: fight each other. That's why they want men and women 989 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 5: to hate each other, blacks and whites to hate each other. 990 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 5: And you've really seen this big fueled really since the 991 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:13,240 Speaker 5: election of Trump, and it's all for a particular purpose. 992 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 5: And so that then lends itself even further to the 993 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 5: economic decisions about some of the companies you're referencing. Sorry 994 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,400 Speaker 5: that this is so complicated, but it really is this 995 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,880 Speaker 5: nefarious and detailed, because otherwise, to your point, it's all logical. 996 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:31,160 Speaker 5: Then asset managers, controlled by only three entities that control 997 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 5: all these large public companies, whether it's Black Rock Vanguard, 998 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 5: then also have their own agendas. And then they take 999 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 5: the state pension money, which is only recently, as you 1000 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:44,399 Speaker 5: guys know, with Florida and others starting to divest from it, 1001 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 5: and then they control the economic decisions on the boards 1002 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:51,439 Speaker 5: of these large companies. So that's kind of a very 1003 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 5: very brief synopsis of where this comes from, how it's 1004 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 5: economically motivated, and yeah, it's totally different from how we 1005 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 5: grew up with Michael Jordan's as he doesn't talk about 1006 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 5: politics because Republicans buy sneakers too. I've quantified the opportunity 1007 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,359 Speaker 5: here for you guys, though. Right at the outset when 1008 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 5: I started doing this, I just looked at, Okay, just 1009 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 5: the people that voted for Donald Trump. That's seventy three 1010 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 5: million people. And the brooking is who told me that 1011 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 5: that's thirty percent of American GDP. So that's like the 1012 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:23,760 Speaker 5: lowest amount of money. That's seven trillion dollars of GDP 1013 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 5: that we all know are pissed off being ignored and 1014 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 5: alienated by these big companies that would be the third 1015 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 5: largest economy in the world. So you better believe I'm 1016 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,520 Speaker 5: going to do everything I can to be the financier 1017 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,959 Speaker 5: for these people because I don't care that it's only 1018 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 5: thirty percent of GDP. It's still the third largest economy 1019 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 5: in the world, and they're ready to stop giving their 1020 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:45,919 Speaker 5: money people to hate them. The last thing I'll say 1021 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 5: is a perfect example of what you're referencing. Salesforce. You know, 1022 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,399 Speaker 5: the CRM that pretty much every business uses. It's owned 1023 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 5: by a guy named Mark Benioff who owns now Time 1024 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 5: magazine and he's the guy that funded eag in Carol's 1025 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 5: lawsuit against Donald Trump. So every time people buy one 1026 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 5: of these products or use these things that they think 1027 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 5: are innocuous, you are literally funding not just people that 1028 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 5: don't like you, who take your money and then try 1029 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 5: to hurt you and hurt the people that you want 1030 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 5: in power. That's how serious this is. So it's not 1031 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 5: about boycotts. That's not effective. You have to then create businesses, 1032 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:31,319 Speaker 5: services and products for people to be positive so we 1033 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:34,840 Speaker 5: can actually effectuate change. And that's literally as American as 1034 00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 5: apple pie. Because it's capitalism. We need to give people choices. 1035 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 8: Oh, Mead Maleigue, founder of seventeen eighty non capital OMI, 1036 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 8: we're gonna have to have you to come back and 1037 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 8: update this on how the parallel economy and true capitalism 1038 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 8: is working over time and talk to you about the 1039 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 8: economy and the election here too. 1040 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,399 Speaker 3: So thanks for making the time for us today.
