WEBVTT - Buck’s First Thoughts - Buck Is Back From Covid 0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:03.240 This is Buck's first thoughts, the news you need to 0:00:03.279 --> 0:00:05.840 get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure 0:00:05.880 --> 0:00:08.520 you subscribe on the iHeart app before wherever you get 0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:14.960 your podcasts. Well, here, i am back from the COVID 0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:20.040 hell that I started going through about a week ago now, 0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:22.640 So I'm sorry that I've been off the air. Sorry 0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:24.760 i haven't been able to talk to you for a 0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:27.840 few days, but it all hit me and I got 0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:30.960 word right as I started to do the show on 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:35.000 Wednesday last week that I sure enough did have COVID 0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:40.239 and it was very much as advertised. Is very much 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.600 something that I could have known just based on the 0:00:43.640 --> 0:00:46.919 symptoms when I got an unofficial test, and I've had 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:48.440 a lot of thoughts on it. Now that I've talked 0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:50.560 to you about this for so long and I've actually 0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:54.480 experienced it myself, I could tell you that everything that 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:56.640 I've told you up to this point has been correct, 0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:59.360 and now that I've actually had to deal with it myself, 0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:04.280 I am more certain than ever about the conclusions we've 0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:06.039 come to on this show about what to do, what 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:09.720 not to do, what is sane policy, and is what 0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:13.360 is not? So I'm looking forward to breaking down all 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:18.120 of that with you here, and then also I'm delaying 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:20.960 my trip down to the border as a result of 0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:23.400 this illness, so it'll be a few more weeks now 0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:25.240 before I get down to the border myself. Certainly going 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:29.960 to have updates for you on that. And I've got 0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:35.520 to tell you it remains remarkable to me that I 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:39.720 just saw this today that Donald Trump. You can't post 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:43.280 Trump interviews, you can't post Trump stuff on Facebook. Do 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:45.240 you realize that this is the former president of the 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:49.280 United States and big tech companies they have more power 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:52.919 than ever. They're doing this openly, and they don't care 0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:55.920 that it bothers you. It doesn't matter to them that 0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.640 they've decided to take sides in our political discussion. As 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:01.600 priv a entities, they can do pretty much whatever they 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:04.960 choose right now, So why are we giving them access 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:07.600 to all of our personal data? You can protect your 0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:10.560 personal data from big tech with the VPN I trust 0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:15.840 for my online protection Express VPN. When I use Express VPN, 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.640 my connection gets rerouted through their secure, encrypted servers, so 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.360 these companies can't see my IP address at all. My 0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:26.239 Internet activity becomes anonymized, and my network data is encrypted. 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:29.400 I recommend Express VPN to anyone who's using the Internet. 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:31.200 This is a must.

The best 0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:35.240 part is you don't need to be tech savvy at 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.040 all to use Express VPN.

The border crisis continues 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:08.080 to spiral out of control. The numbers are stunning. The 0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:12.360 Biden administration pretending that they have a good idea of 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.680 how to handle all of this, folks. I've been looking 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:17.640 forward to talking to you about about everything going on 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:20.680 of the news. The border is obviously top of mind 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.440 for me, and we'll dive into that. But first, just 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:27.079 a quick word to all of you about why I've 0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:30.799 been out. I've had COVID. I've had COVID now for 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:36.760 a week and it is very much what I expected. 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.480 The symptoms. It was a little I was hoping that 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:43.480 maybe i'd have a milder case than I did. I 0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:49.280 got hit pretty badly. Was very similar to a nasty flu. 0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.280 So as I was doing the show Wednesday, and I 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:55.520 know that we I had to take a pause during 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.680 it and wasn't even really able to get through the 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:02.880 normal show. The fatigue and the dizziness that hit was 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:07.560 just just immense. I'm doing a lot better now. I'm 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:11.600 going to be out of quarantine in three days, so 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:15.040 I'm doing this show now. From quarantine. I have not 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.039 left my apartment in a week. I have not seen 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:19.760 anyone in a week. But I'm getting to talk to 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:24.040 all of you across the country, and I'm very thankful 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.440 that I'm I was a mild enough case, didn't have 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:27.919 to go see a doctor, even didn't have to go 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:31.080 to the hospital. For me, it's largely been like a flu. 0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:32.520 And I'll talk to you more about what I see 0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:38.000 going on in COVID policy. And the short version is 0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.800 that having now had this and experienced it, I'm more 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:44.320 certain than ever about everything that I've been telling you 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.920 for the past year, all the conclusions, all the analysis 0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.240 about what would have been a better choice for our society, 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:54.680 what works with regard to mitigation, what does in all 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:57.520 that kind of stuff or how well it works. So 0:04:57.680 --> 0:04:59.360 we'll certainly dive into all that, but I want to 0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:01.599 start with and I appreciate all the well wishes. I 0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:03.800 know a lot of you didn't understand why I was 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:08.760 out because I didn't make it clear. I figured, let 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:11.400 me beat COVID before I tell you all that I 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:15.200 have COVID. And so that's that's where I am. And 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:18.640 I'm glad to be back and really thankful to be 0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:22.160 able to do the show once again. That all said, 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:24.600 if I sound a little bit strained today or if 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:26.120 it sounds a little bit like a challenge, well I'm 0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.640 not one hundred percent yet, so I'm still I'm playing 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.159 hurt here on the radio. But that's how we that's 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:33.560 how we do it in the Freedom Hunt. So let's 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:40.039 get into the border situation where we have the journalists 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:43.160 finally now that they've they've tried to make it a 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:47.040 little bit less awful looking in terms of the conditions 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:52.600 in these facilities. You've had journos gathering together and able 0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:55.240 to go and take photos of what's going on, to 0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:58.960 see what's happening in one of these facilities, and it 0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:03.400 is a it is a total mess. It's awful. What's happening. 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:07.200 The biggest shelter for migrant kids. They let the journalists 0:06:07.200 --> 0:06:10.200 go see this. You got about one in seven kids 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:15.279 has COVID. They've got tents that are at seventeen hundred 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:19.560 percent capacity. They've got two thousand kids who have overstayed 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:23.599 their seventy two hour legal limit. There's COVID outbreaks, there's 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:27.440 a reported lice outbreak. I mean, it's really bad conditions. 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:31.520 And what is the Biden administration say about all this? 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.720 What is their approach to this? Well, they think, and 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:38.640 I'm being serious, this is what they believe. They think 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:43.520 that they're doing a good job. They actually believe that 0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.160 their approach to the border, which has led to all 0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:49.800 of this, is something they should be praised for. Here 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:54.960 as Biden's borders are ROBERTA. Jacobson play nine. First of all, 0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:58.080 we don't apologize for the fact that this is a 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:01.320 president who has a more humane policy. The President said 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:04.120 it himself the other day during his press conference. He's 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:07.280 not going to apologize for taking care of children who 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:10.440 come unaccompanied across the border. But I do think we 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:13.240 have to make sure people understand that the border is 0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:18.120 not open that the majority of people, especially single adults, 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:23.400 will be expelled or deported, and that people need to 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:25.920 understand that this is not the way to come to 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:30.320 the United States, that we are working on legal pathways, 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:32.640 on options that they can have to stay in their 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:36.880 home countries. We are surging humanitarian assistance after two hurricanes 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:43.040 last November. Now, there's a problem with the entire philosophy 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.480 of the Democrats when it comes to the border, and 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:48.840 it's apparent in all their public statements about it. They're 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:55.640 always trying to lean on this notion that they just 0:07:55.760 --> 0:08:00.200 need to increase access to the system and this will 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:04.559 work out for everybody. But that's not true. The reason 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.280 that people are choosing to come in this way is 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.280 because it's an end run on the system, because they 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:13.920 won't really get refugee status or asylum. Remember refugee status 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.480 you apply for in another country to be here in 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.800 the United States. Asylum status is you show up and 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:23.320 essentially demand to be an on the spot refugee. They 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:27.840 won't get their claims, they won't get their claims taken 0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:32.080 through to the actual end where they get to stay. 0:08:32.520 --> 0:08:35.640 That's the problem, and they won't say this, so they 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:38.079 keep telling us, but there's a humanitarian need. There's a 0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:42.520 humanitarian disaster in Central America. There was a hurricane at 0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:44.560 some point, As if the people are coming now because 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:46.839 the hurricane, not because Joe Biden is the president, right, 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:48.840 As if we're also stupid that we don't see what's 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.319 going on. I mean this, you can't make this stuff up. 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:54.160 They're showing up at the border in large numbers, and 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:58.080 they're saying on camera, we're here because of Biden. They're 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:01.959 wearing Biden t shirts. The Democrat Party is a de 0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:05.840 facto open borders party. They don't want to turn people away. 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.080 They're a lying to you when they say they do. 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.440 As far as they're concerned, anybody who wants to come 0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:15.199 to America should be able to notice. They never explain otherwise. 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.280 They don't even go through the motions of saying, look, 0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:20.520 we got to have a cap here. We can't we 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.680 can't take in a million refugees a year, on top 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:26.680 of a million legal immigrants a year, which is what 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:30.200 we currently do, a million legal immigrants in America every year. 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:32.760 And now we're going to add on to that perhaps 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:37.960 a million, perhaps two million refugees from Central America why 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.520 not ten million. Now you have to get down to 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:43.240 the basic philosophy here of what is an immigration system 0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:46.720 supposed to do? Why do we even have an immigration system, 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:50.560 and deal with this reality. Look at these questions honestly, 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.160 instead of what the Democrats do is the worst kinds 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:57.679 of demagoguery. Right, they act like it's only an issue 0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:02.600 of fixing the efficiency of the system and then everything 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.240 will be better. Well, no, there are a lot of 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:09.480 these families that based on our immigration laws, in fact, 0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.040 a vast majority of these families, something like ninety percent 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.079 of them, should not be able to stay in the 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.400 United States and therefore must be deported. But they won't 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:18.920 tell you that because they don't plan on doing that. 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.679 There's a lot of falsehood around this. There's a lot 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.920 of lies, and you have to dig into this to 0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.360 see what's really going on. I'll be going down to 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:30.480 the border, like I said, in a few weeks. I 0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:34.160 need to recover fully from COVID first, but I want 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.080 to see it myself. I want to talk. I've been 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:38.040 down there before for the last migrant crisis, but I 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:41.880 want to speak to members of border patrol and use 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:44.320 the sources and connections I have down there to get 0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:48.600 the most accurate story I can about what is really happening. 0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:54.240 Because here's the short version. The Biden administration is lying 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:58.000 to you about a lot of this, and they're just 0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:02.400 living in an alternate reality, in alternate universe because ultimately 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:05.679 they don't really have a problem with what's going on. 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.840 They have a problem with you knowing about it. They 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:11.840 wish they could find a way that this didn't look bad. 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:17.080 But as for the actual enormous surge across the border, 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:20.160 they have no problem with that. Oh. In fact, as 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:22.240 we'll see, they have a problem with the usage of 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:26.880 the term surge. This is this is pretty incredible stuff. 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:32.440 Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is someone who now says that to 0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:39.439 use the term surge is a vestige or a connection 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:43.880 to white supremacy. I am not making that up. This 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:48.040 is what so called public intellectuals of the Democrat Party 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:51.040 or public officials. I don't know if any would call 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.200 her intellectual. She thinks she's kind of an intellectual of 0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.880 the Democrat Party. This is what they really believe, and 0:11:55.960 --> 0:12:00.840 they'll say stuff like this. It's remarkable, but it also 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:04.720 shows you just how much dishonesty there is around this 0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:08.320 issue where sure enough, they're turning them border into a 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:11.000 oh it's a question of racism issue instead of a 0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:14.680 this is about safety, about law and order, about having 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:19.600 an orderly immigration policy that benefits all Americans, that secures 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:21.800 our borders, and that allows us to have sovereignty and 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.840 control of our own nation. No, it's not that, it's 0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:27.559 just about finding a way Democrats finding a way to 0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:32.079 demagogue the issue and call anybody who disagrees with them racist. 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:36.440 They want to say, what about the surge, Well, first 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:40.320 of all, just gut check stop. Anyone who's using the 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:45.480 term surge around you consciously is trying to invoke a 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:51.760 militaristic frame. And that's a problem because this is not 0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:57.040 a surge. These are children, and they are not insurgents, 0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:01.200 and we are not being invaded, which, by the way, 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:10.160 is a white supremacist idea philosophy, the idea that if 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:14.240 another is coming in the population, that this is like 0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:18.520 an invasion of who we are. This woman is beloved 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:26.040 by millions and millions of young Americans who are idiots. 0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.559 It's astonishing the amount of sway, the amount of power 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:32.400 that she has in the national political conversation. For such 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:38.240 a really shocking ignoramus. I mean, a deeply ignorant and 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:44.079 not particularly bright person has tremendous sway over the national 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:47.600 political conversation. And you have all these people that love her, 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:50.920 and you know, they're all, yes, she's amazing, and she 0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:54.440 does these live streams, and it's it's just sad to 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:58.720 watch all these twenty somethings and thirty somethings who believe 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.840 that that AOC is speaking these eternal truths or some 0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:04.280 other such nonsense. I mean, let's start with a few 0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:06.920 of the things that she says, because remember, the Democrats 0:14:07.000 --> 0:14:09.520 don't want you to pay attention to what's actually happening. 0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:13.120 They're coming up with clever ways, Like we're all sitting 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:16.520 in a classroom now at some third tier liberal arts 0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:22.040 college doing the deconstruction of Shakespeare. It's not what was 0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:23.880 on the page, it's what we think should be on 0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:27.520 the page. Right, This is the kind of relativistic approach 0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:30.200 the Democrats take to everything. It's not about what's going on, 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:32.960 it's about what we can convince people is going on. 0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:39.000 Let's reframe this issue. Let's use pseudo scientific jargon to 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.720 add some level of credibility. To what we're saying, just 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:43.480 like the Marxist used to do. By the way, just 0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:46.560 like the Bolsheviks did. It was all about you know, 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:52.200 committees and commissars and functionaries and people that are there 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:55.600 was a mechanistic aspect to their political decision making because 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:59.840 it was all you could say about believing the science, 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:04.640 the political science in that case. So she uses terms 0:15:04.720 --> 0:15:08.400 like it's about a militaristic frame. No, it's actually not. 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:12.120 If she owned a dictionary, which I'm sure she does not, 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:16.520 or if she spent any time googling and going to 0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:19.200 dictionary dot com, she would find very quickly that a surge, 0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:23.920 it's a sudden, powerful forward or upward movement, especially by 0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:27.000 a crowd, or a natural force such as a wave. 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:32.480 That is a large movement by a crowd is a surge. 0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:37.720 So I just want to know what other words are. 0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:40.080 Are white supremacists? I mean, if someone said there's a 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:44.960 spike in illegal crossings, is that white supremacist? If somebody 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:48.400 says we've seen an increase in numbers of the border increase, 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:51.760 that's like the stock market, because like when it increases, 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:55.200 like the rich people make money, and so it's like, yeah, 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:58.160 increase is now like a thing. Let's just call a 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:02.720 white supremacy. She just said surges white supremacy. So I 0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:05.480 guess increase can be white supremacy too, right, And anything 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.800 that they want to claim is white supremacy they will 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:14.360 throw into the bucket with the rest. It's absurd. It's 0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:19.080 so intellectually empty. But so much of what the Democrats 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:23.640 are doing now is intellectually empty in terms of the 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:25.720 policy and the impact that it's going to have on 0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:29.040 the country. I mean, we are being scammed in massive 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:31.760 numbers at our southern border. That's what's happening to our 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:36.320 country right now. People are taking advantage of the kindness 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:40.040 and the decency of the American people overall, and they're 0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:43.920 pretending that they're they're asiles. There are asylum seekers from 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:46.600 around the world, they're refugees. Would be refugees from around 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:50.480 the world who have real cases, who actually might be 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:52.600 tortured and killed if they don't get out of their country. 0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:56.720 And you know, because they're not in walking distance, they 0:16:56.760 --> 0:16:59.440 have to actually apply and go through the system. But 0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:01.400 if you can walk, you can be part of a surge. 0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:04.320 If you can be part of a surge, the rules 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:10.399 suddenly don't apply. Nobody really believes the Democrats plan on 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:13.879 sending back all these people also back to the AOC. 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:21.040 Just stupidity here. They're not all children. There are a 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:22.760 lot of adults showing up at the border. They're a 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.720 family unit showing up at the border. There are thousands 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:29.600 and thousands of tens of thousands of adults who are 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:32.760 showing up too. So they focus on the children aspect 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:36.200 of it because they want to make this as sympathetic 0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:40.360 a situation as possible. But let's also remember that they 0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:44.160 screamed kids in cages during the Trump administration, and now 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:47.640 the cages, so to speak, are more full than ever. 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:51.320 There are more people in those cages, more children in 0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:54.720 those cages than ever before, by huge numbers. Ted Cruze 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:57.359 was down to the border senator from Texas. Here's what 0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:00.480 he said. Play for by the way, Yes yesterday I 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:03.520 went to Dallas to a different facility, the Kay Bailey 0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:07.160 Hutcheson facility, which is the Convention Center downtown. They've turned 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:11.000 into an emergency detention center. And there's one gigantic room. 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:14.359 It is the size of three and a half football field, 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:19.280 so it's massive. The entire room is nothing but cots, 0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:22.640 one after the other after the other. Over two thousand, 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.840 two hundred cots lined up in a room three and 0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:28.959 a half times the size of a football field. Nothing 0:18:29.000 --> 0:18:36.160 but teenage boys ages thirteen to seventeen. Teenage boys, thousands 0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:40.080 and thousands of them, a facility three times the size 0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:42.880 of a football field. Why are they here Because Joe 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:46.480 Biden's president and the Democrats let the world know that 0:18:46.800 --> 0:18:50.200 the virtue signaling they feel when they declare they want 0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.960 a de facto open border is more important than our 0:18:52.960 --> 0:18:55.159 immigration law. And it's more important actually than the safety 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:59.080 of these kids. We know the numbers that will be 0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:01.760 that are not just being human traffic of course that's 0:19:01.760 --> 0:19:04.000 going on at the hands of the cartels, but also 0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:10.080 the sexual assault and sexual exploitation of these kids by 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:14.320 people either affiliated with the cartels or just predators along 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:18.160 the way is stunningly high. That these children are being 0:19:18.200 --> 0:19:24.240 turned over for these cartels to take to the border. 0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:26.960 I mean they're taking them over hundreds and hundreds of miles. 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:30.680 The COVID positivity rate among the kids, and I know 0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:32.800 the kids are generally not at much risk from COVID, 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:37.480 but you know, there's still the concern about seventeen year 0:19:37.480 --> 0:19:39.840 olds giving it to other people, right fifteen sixteen year 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:43.880 olds they more easily transmit it to adults than say 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:45.720 a ten year old or a five year old will, 0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:51.760 But they get in person instruction in school. That's something 0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.320 else that's come out about this. So it's not safe 0:19:54.960 --> 0:19:57.960 for teachers to teach your kids in person if you 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.560 live in San Diego, let's say, where I know, they've 0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:03.159 got one of these big facilities now set up. But 0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:07.280 migrant children, who have in some cases a very high 0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:10.880 COVID positivity rate established through testing in the last couple 0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:16.399 of weeks, migrant children do get in person instruction. So 0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:18.119 your kids may have been kept out of school for 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:20.760 a full year. But if you show up illegally at 0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:23.399 the border and you're being held for what a few days, 0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:27.800 maybe a week or two max, you get in person 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:32.800 instruction right away. Right away, you start to wonder, why 0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:35.560 are there two sets of rules the Democrats enforce in 0:20:35.560 --> 0:20:38.240 this country, and the set of rules they enforced for 0:20:38.359 --> 0:20:40.720 illegal immigrants who come to the country in violation of 0:20:40.760 --> 0:20:44.840 our laws is a more generous one, a more forgiving one, 0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:48.760 than what they have for the American people. What sense 0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:53.040 does that really make well. The Democrat Party is addicted 0:20:53.080 --> 0:20:55.960 to cheap virtue signaling, and if they can feel good 0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:59.240 about themselves through no actions they have to take through 0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:02.520 no sacrifice of their own, that is the policy they 0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:06.280 most they most adore, and that's what an open border allows. 0:21:06.520 --> 0:21:09.560 So if parents are vaccinated, they still do need to 0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:14.600 be concerned about their unvaccinated children playing together in groups. 0:21:14.720 --> 0:21:18.000 Is that right? Yeah, the children can clearly wind up 0:21:18.000 --> 0:21:20.560 getting infected. When we talk about what you can do 0:21:20.600 --> 0:21:24.240 when you're vaccinated, you can certainly have members of a 0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:27.119 family if the adults are vaccinated and you're in the 0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:30.000 home with your child, you don't need to wear a mask, 0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:32.960 and you could have physical contact. When the children go 0:21:33.000 --> 0:21:36.359 out into the community. You want them to continue to 0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:40.720 wear masks when they're interacting with groups from multiple households. 0:21:41.880 --> 0:21:45.840 Mask up your little kids, even after your vaccinated. Mask 0:21:45.920 --> 0:21:49.840 up your kids. I don't know what it's going to take. 0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:53.399 I really asked this question in earnest, what it's going 0:21:53.400 --> 0:22:00.120 to take for people to realize what a little tyrannical moron, this, 0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:05.360 this this fascist smurf Fauci actually is. I just have 0:22:05.440 --> 0:22:08.600 to wonder what he will say, what will be too 0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:13.040 much for them to finally that they will finally ignore him. 0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:16.679 And let's start with this. Has Faucci ever made the 0:22:16.760 --> 0:22:19.600 right call when it really counted? Has he ever made 0:22:19.640 --> 0:22:22.719 the right call? A lot of you are probably already 0:22:22.720 --> 0:22:25.280 thinking about the fact that we're three weeks into Texas 0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:31.440 is reopen. Texas cases are going way down New York 0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:36.439 cases where I am going up quite a bit. New 0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:39.560 York is being hit very badly. We've had about fifty 0:22:39.880 --> 0:22:43.639 thousand new cases in New York State in the last 0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:47.359 week or so. That's that's a lot of cases in 0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:52.280 a week. But I ask, why don't we actually see 0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:56.119 more pressure on Fauci to explain this? Why is Texas 0:22:56.160 --> 0:22:57.960 doing better new York doing? Where's Texas got rid of 0:22:57.960 --> 0:23:00.159 the mask mandate at the state level? Now I know 0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:02.760 there are still some cities with masking, But if it 0:23:02.800 --> 0:23:05.000 doesn't matter that Texas got rid of the mask mandate 0:23:05.000 --> 0:23:07.000 at the state level, why were we told that it 0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:10.639 was reckless? Why did Fauci warn us? Why is everyone 0:23:10.720 --> 0:23:12.840 saying it's such a bad idea. They can't have it 0:23:12.920 --> 0:23:16.920 both ways, folks, It can't be Removing the mask mandate 0:23:17.040 --> 0:23:19.680 is awful and then well, removing the mask mandate actually 0:23:19.920 --> 0:23:23.159 doesn't change mask wearing, right, That's what they do. These 0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:25.639 are the games they play. They never want to be 0:23:25.680 --> 0:23:27.520 held to account for what's really going on. They never 0:23:27.600 --> 0:23:32.000 want people to know what's truly happening. It's all about 0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:35.440 the narrative. It's all about the construct that's being used 0:23:35.440 --> 0:23:38.240 to control you. But I ask you, what will it 0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:41.640 take for the people of this country to reclaim their 0:23:41.640 --> 0:23:45.800 dignity and their sanity by telling this feckless bureaucrat, tyrant 0:23:45.800 --> 0:23:52.240 Fauci that his advice is no longer want it? What's 0:23:52.280 --> 0:23:54.920
