Got some things that discuss 13 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: with you this hour, including currently, some teachers organizations out 14 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: there get very antsy at the notion of having to 15 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: put their lesson plans online. Why can't the lesson plan 16 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: be online for you know, fifth graders, eighth graders, whatever, 17 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: what's the oh? Because they want to do indoctrination and 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: curt training of your kids, even when they say they're 19 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: not doing it. Okay, we'll get into that coming up 20 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: here later on in this hour, but first I had 21 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: told you that Kamala Harris, who you know? It's amazing. 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: I like to pose the question of people right now, 23 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: if you have to pick one to be commander in 24 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: chief tomorrow, if a major war breaks out between Russia 25 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 1: and Ukraine, and who knows, you know, could could suck 26 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: in one of our NATO allies even or something. I mean, 27 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: let's just say something's got out out of hand, out 28 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: of control. Who would you want to be in charge? 29 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: Joe Biden or Kamala Harris? I mean, I it is 30 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: a tough call, friends, I mean, and I know you're 31 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: saying buck this talk about a you know, between a 32 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 1: being competent, a rock and a hard place. I mean, 33 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 1: you got to be kidding me. That's not a fair 34 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: That's not a fair choice to make. But that is 35 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: the choice that the American people could be faced with 36 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: at some point, especially if Joe Biden's considering stepping down 37 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: for reasons of health or whatever. Although I don't think 38 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: I think he is going to finish out his entire 39 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: first term. I think he is going to run againto 40 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: I do believe it that is his plan. I also 41 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: think that when you're almost eighty years old, um, you 42 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: don't know what the future brings, but I think he 43 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: is planning on that. But nonetheless, Kamala Harris was on 44 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: the on the Today Show over at NBC. It is 45 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: still amazing to me how many people watch these the 46 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: warmed over Democrat propaganda, I mean, the the it's it's 47 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,959 Speaker 1: the Democrat pablum, and places like CBS and NBC and 48 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 1: ABC News they just do it with a little more panash, 49 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: you know, it's a little more splashy graphics and uh 50 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: make it seem like it's slightly less partisan, I suppose 51 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: than what you get at CNN and MSNBC. But she 52 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: was on the on the Today Show and the big 53 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: question that came up today was because Democrats make this 54 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: whole stink over Republicans not accepting election results, right, they say, oh, 55 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: it led to the insurrection and all this stuff. That's 56 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: what they'll tell you. And of course they pretend that 57 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: we can't remember that they did not accept the results 58 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: of the twenty sixteen election. In fact, they concocted a 59 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: preposterous and monstrous lie about Russia collusion Russia, you know, 60 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: I mean, all the stuff that was being said about this, 61 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: it never made any sense I'll never forget. Then President 62 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: Trump told me in the Oval office, we're talking about this. 63 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: This was back in maybe twenty eighteen. In twenty nineteen, 64 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: he said to me, it's not even a He used 65 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: more colorful language that I can on the radio. He said, 66 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: it's not even a blanking good idea, meaning that this 67 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't even work. You work with the Russians, the stealing election, 68 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: and the Russians that have leveraged over you while you're president. 69 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: It's crazy. It's crazy. This was something that if you 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: were trying to write a spy novel, they'd say, oh, 71 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: that's too unrealistic, are FBI Because it's a mixture at 72 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: the top level of Democrat partisans dumbasses went along with this, 73 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: of course, which is stunning. You know, James James sank 74 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: To Comey as I call him, went along with all 75 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: this stuff. But the whole point was that it gave 76 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: them a story that let them psychologically and then take 77 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: action based on it, psychologically convinced themselves that the election 78 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: of Donald Trump was illegitimate in twenty sixteen, which is 79 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: just nuts. It's just nuts. But Vice President Harris now 80 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: has to address the fact that just yesterday, Joe Biden 81 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: when he's addressing the nation, he's got his two hour 82 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: long press commerence and Alna heard speak clearly. If you're 83 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: gonna ask me a question, you gotta speak clearly, because 84 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna sit here, I'm gonna look at you, and 85 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, you know, seven chipmunks sitting on a 86 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: branch eating a lot of acorns on my uncle's ranch. 87 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: You say what, that's right, It's Joe Biden for you. 88 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: Here he is a rather pardon me. Here is Vice 89 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: President Harris trying to clean up Joe Biden's mess because 90 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: he said that, you know, if they don't get the 91 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: voting rights bill through, it's probably an illegitimate election. Here's 92 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: Vice President Harris on the NBC Today Show. I guess 93 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: they weren't talking about, you know, the zestious salads for 94 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: wintertime or whatever. Now they're doing hard news play twenty one. 95 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: Is he really concerned that we may not have fair 96 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: and free elections. The President has been consistent on this 97 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: issue and the issue at hand, the issue. I was 98 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: there last night in the chamber of the Senate, and 99 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: the issue is that there are two bills. The John 100 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: Lewis Voting Rights Act and the Freedom to Vote Act 101 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: that have been the solution that has been offered to 102 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: address the fact that around our country, states have put 103 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: in place laws that are purposely making it more difficult 104 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: for the American people to vote, Laws which will be 105 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: felt by at least fifty five million Americans, regardless of 106 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: their party affiliation, their race, their gender, or their geographic location. 107 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: Laws that will make it harder for people to cheat. 108 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: It is not hard to vote in this country, and 109 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: in fact, in most states it has literally never been 110 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: easier to vote in this country. And what you hear 111 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: from Democrats is that we are in Jim Crow two 112 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: point zero. Also note this is a tell whenever a 113 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: Democrat responds to remember the press with you know, We've 114 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: been or Joe Biden's been or I've been consistent on 115 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: this issue. That's their way of saying, stop asking me this. 116 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: Don't ask me this question. I ask me fluff questions. 117 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: I don't ask me anything real. You're on my team. 118 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: I call the shots. You're just waiting for Kamala or 119 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: Joe to finally slip one day and say, hey, journo, 120 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: you work for me, don't you know? How this game 121 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: is played. Savannah Guthrie though, having a moment because you know, 122 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: we an unpopular president. So this is how the game 123 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: is played. So you all understand, the journos when a 124 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: president is embattled have to do a little bit of 125 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: the dance where they act like, oh, well, you know, 126 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: we're we're fair minded, so we'll ask you one or 127 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: two things about how things aren't going so well, and 128 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: then they'll ruthlessly attack any real critics of the administration 129 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: to make sure that they don't gain any headway, that 130 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: they don't actually convince any Americans. So they present it, 131 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: you know, they present the question, they don't actually push 132 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: the question. There's a difference. But here's uh, Savannah Guthrie 133 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: over there on NBC saying the administration maybe went a 134 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: little too far. Here, here's the way she says it, 135 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: and then then I'll and then I'll rephrase it if 136 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: she were like actually trying to get a serious answer, Um, 137 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: did the administration fail to temper it's initiative? So that's 138 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: could could we be more euphemistic and gentle here and 139 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: saying why do you go psycho left lib when you 140 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: promise you were going to unite the country. That would 141 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: be the real question. Here's how she says it, though 142 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: Play twenty two. Did the administration fail to temper its 143 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: initiatives to meet political reality? In other words, should you 144 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: have been more willing to compromise to try to get 145 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: all Democrats on board? These initiatives failed because Democrats weren't united, 146 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: let alone Republicans. Was that in error as you look 147 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: back on this year? Well, when I look back on 148 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: this year, I think about things like the bipartisan Infrastructure law. 149 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: Administrations both Democrat and Republican, have tried for years. What 150 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: doesn't that show we're publican too, We're willing to help 151 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 1: if the initiatives there would But they try for years 152 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: to do what the American people want, and what the 153 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: American people know is not an issue that should be 154 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: thought of through a political lens. No, it's all thought 155 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: of through a political lens, of course. And she knows that, 156 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: and that's all she ever thinks about anything through and 157 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: the political lens of what will best help Kamala Harris. 158 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: That is the lens through what she sees everything right, 159 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: But notice that Guthrie here points out the obvious, which is, well, 160 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: you're saying that Republicans are intransigent. They'll use phrases like 161 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: the Senate is not working. No, the Senate's working just 162 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: fun It's a fifty fifty Senate. There's no mandate for 163 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: massive sweeping legislation. The Democrats receive no mandate in the 164 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 1: pandemic for change. And if anything, what we've seen since 165 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: the Biden regime took power is the more the American 166 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: people see of it, the more appalled they are at 167 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: its ineptitude and the foundational lies that it told to 168 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: get into power in the first place, namely that they're 169 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: going to unite the country. It's not what happened. Wasn't 170 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: there intent? They just said it. It was a swindle. 171 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 1: But Savannah Cuthrie even says, well, if Republicans will vote 172 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: with you on infrastructure, clearly there are things that they're 173 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: willing to do for the benefit of the American people, 174 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: or at least that are popular with the American people. 175 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: So doesn't that mean that maybe Democrats should recalibrate the agenda. 176 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 1: Doesn't that mean that there are aspects of the Build 177 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: Back Better Bill that are simply not super popular across 178 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: party lines, and you should stop pretending that they are no, 179 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: Kamala would rather just stick to the talking points. And 180 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: this is she's a a person who is just in 181 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:23,479 Speaker 1: all aspects of the job so far, so deeply unimpressive, 182 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: and none of it is even a little bit surprising. 183 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: But she was pressed on Ukraine by wouldn't it be 184 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 1: so great if, I mean Biden coming on this show, 185 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: having Clay and me go back and forth, kam Law 186 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: on this show, It would be such That's the way 187 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: it should be. I really do think that we miss 188 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: something in our political culture now where people people will 189 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 1: not go into unfriendly territory, you know, I will. I mean, 190 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: I'm gone with Bill Marshaw a bunch of times. I'll 191 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,599 Speaker 1: throw down wherever they just won't have they won't have it. 192 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: I would go on, I would fight, but it's only 193 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: with the anchors. I'm not doing the thing at CNN 194 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: where they have an analyst on and the anchor and 195 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: then it's a two on one. No, no no, no, I'll 196 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: go on. I'll represent a point of view and they 197 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: can they can they can send you know, Cooper or 198 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: Lemon or Tapper after me and we can have that 199 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: debate in real time on air live. Let's see how 200 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: that goes for them, never happens anymore, And Kamala of 201 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: course won't come on the show. Founci won't even come 202 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: on this show, biggest radio show in America. Founci won't 203 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: even show up. I don't know. I got too many 204 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: podcasts with hundreds of listeners out there. But they're lib 205 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: hosts who I know worship me, so it's a safe space. 206 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 1: What did Kamala's say when she was pressed on Ukraine? 207 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: You know, I'll return to this in a moment. Finish 208 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: up this another interview. You say, Kamala wow manages to 209 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: make Hillary Clinton seem likable by comparison, which is probably 210 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: why people are talking about Hillary running in twenty twenty four. 211 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: We'll get into that. Finish that up in a minute. 212 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 1: And then also this thing about we can't have teachers 213 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: put the lesson plan for online so parents can see 214 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: what their kids are being taught. Why. Oh, we all 215 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: know why. We'll get into that. This audience appreciates freedom 216 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: as much as we do, and in our own ways, 217 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: each of us defend our freedoms too. Our freedoms are 218 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: defined and one of the greatest documents ever created, our Constitution. 219 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: Few entities study teach and explain the Constitution better than 220 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: Hillsdale College, the best liberal arts college in America. Hillsdale's 221 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: mission in pursuing truth in defending is pursuing truth and 222 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: defending liberty.

You 240 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: can't unring the bell. Is Vladimir Putin likely to listen 241 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: to a later statement from the White House Press secretary 242 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: or the words of President Biden. I will repeat myself, 243 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: and I'm Vice President of the United States, and the 244 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: President and I work closely together, and I know his 245 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: position because he has been consistent in that regard. If 246 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: Vladimir Putin and Russia takes aggressive action, it will be 247 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: mad with a cost that will be severe. I don't 248 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: think he's terrified. Welcome back to Clay and Buck show 249 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: a lot of focus from the press corps on Ukraine 250 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: and Russia. I think at some level they understand anything 251 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: is good for the Biden regime. That isn't the economy, 252 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: the border, inflation, crime in US cities, anything else. You know, 253 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: get the focus of the people on something far far 254 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: away and one in which you can have people that 255 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: are that are looking up what's the capital of Ukraine? 256 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: Just about five minutes before they go on air, let 257 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: me tell you, as a newly minted Ukraine expert, so 258 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: there'll be a lot of that going on. But yeah, 259 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think that the Biden Harris, the 260 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: Biden Harris team has got putin thinking long and hard 261 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: about his options. In the fact of anything, I believe 262 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: that in part this aggression against Ukraine is driven by 263 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: the fact that he knows he can outplay the Biden 264 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: Harris team with ease. That's what I really think is 265 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: going on here. That's what I think is at least 266 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: a part of it. I don't like to overplay it, 267 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: but I think that is a part of the considerations 268 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: of what's happening here. Just one other thing, you know, 269 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: even some Democrats, because this comes up, even some Democrats 270 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: are starting to realize this guy, Joe Biden's really too 271 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: old for this. It comes across and even if he's 272 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: not speaking in a way that is immediately indicative of say, dementia, 273 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: which people bring up on a regular basis. And just remember, 274 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: they said all kinds of stuff about Donald Trump. They 275 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: said Donald Trump was crazy, they talked about the twenty 276 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: fifth Amendment. This was a regular topic of conversation. In fact, 277 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: the lib media would sometimes go with a psychiatrist on 278 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: TV a Blue Check MD to diagnose, to diagnose Donald 279 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: Trump from a are So this is what they were doing. 280 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: Then I don't understand what we do understand of course 281 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: why they won't do it. Now. It's not about principle, 282 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: that's for sure. But Van Jones, who is a man 283 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: of a left, firmly on the left side of the 284 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: political spectrum, even he had to say some of what 285 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: Biden was saying in this press conference was a little 286 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: uh oh. Now he takes it. He's gonna take a 287 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: cheap shot at Reagan, so get ready for that, because 288 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: of course, but here's what he says, Play twenty. I 289 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: think that part of the reason that answer stood out 290 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: so much is because some of the other answers were 291 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: kind of foggy and meandering. I think you have to 292 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: be honest that you can be a foggy, meandering a president, 293 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: say like Reagan near the end, if you're winning. But 294 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: if you're foggy and meandering on key questions and you're 295 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: also not winning, then you've got a real problem. And 296 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: so I think the real challenge did you have is 297 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: the numbers are out there that they are bad, But 298 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: this party has got to come together and start putting 299 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: some wins on the board for this president. They either 300 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: got to start. They're gonna either hang together or they're 301 00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: gonna hang separately. In the fall. Interesting, they're realizing they've 302 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: got a real problem here. And you know what would 303 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: be great if instead of Democrats figuring out a way 304 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 1: to align the propaganda so they can keep pushing for 305 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: the same failed policy, the same bad decisions, but just 306 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: fool enough of the American voters unfortunately, like they did 307 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty election, the first place that they 308 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: can keep going with all this, why not say maybe 309 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 1: it's time to rethink some of this, you know, like 310 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: on things that involve all I don't know. School and 311 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: the way that critical race theory became such a rallying 312 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: cry for parents because it has been it's been made 313 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: very clear that for Democrats, parents don't get to weigh 314 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: in on kids. In fact, if they try to weigh 315 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: in on their children and what they're being taught, maybe 316 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: the FBI is going to come knocking on the door. 317 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: We'll get into some more of that and the battle 318 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 1: of a critical race theory in schools and how it's 319 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: going to play in the midterms coming up We've seen 320 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: a lot of dramatic price increases over the last year, 321 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: not just in a gallant of gas, cost of food, 322 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: but in other places as well. The cost of housing 323 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: is a great example. Some people characterize it as out 324 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: of control. Well, that signals is our dollar is not 325 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: worth what it was a year ago, and that's influencing 326 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: the value of your savings account, which has also worked less. 327 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: How do you protect it the value of what you've 328 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: worked so hard to earn. You diversify and purchase gold, 329 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: which has proven to hold its value over the course 330 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: of time better than any currency.

And also the Clay Travis and Buck 347 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast, which is crushing it with big numbers 348 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: month to month, and we really really appreciate and thank 349 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 1: all of you for that. So let's keep it. Let's 350 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 1: keep it going. I told you about this before, but 351 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: I want to give you the name of the phenomenon. 352 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: It's when parents get to see what their kids are 353 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: being taught in schools. Curriculum transparency. That's the term they're 354 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: using now the opponents. This is an NBC News piece, 355 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: so of course you're going to get a lot of 356 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: left wing bias in the way it's framed. Just get 357 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: ready for that. But the opponents of critical race theory 358 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: are focusing on what they call curriculum transparency now, and 359 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: this is really straightforward. This is just letting parents know 360 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 1: what their kids are being taught. Let me just read 361 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: you a little bit from this NBC piece. As state 362 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 1: legislatures kick in a gear this month. Republican governors and 363 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: lawmakers who have fought to limit discussions of race in 364 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: public school that's how they describe it, oh Sure, are 365 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: lining up to support a new aim curriculum transparency. Lawmakers 366 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: in at least twelve states have introduced legislation to require 367 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: schools to post lists of all their teaching materials online, 368 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 1: including books, articles, and videos. The governors of Arizona, Florida, 369 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: and Iowa, who have previously raised concerns about how teachers 370 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: discuss racisms impact on politics, politics and society, called for 371 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: curriculum transparency laws in speeches to their legislatures this month. Indeed, 372 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: why is this even let's start with this, why is 373 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: this even remotely controversial? Does anyone think what is the 374 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,719 Speaker 1: alternative to this? Let's just start from that perspective, and 375 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: remember this was a critical issue, critical race theory. In 376 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: the Virginia win of Glenn yung Kin as the new 377 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: governor and his whole team wins, some seers and others 378 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 1: coming in. We had the new attorney general on earlier 379 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: this week for the state of Virginia, and this whole 380 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 1: new team is coming to Virginia and they're doing great stuff, 381 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: and part of it is getting rid of this. It's 382 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: really just leftist indoctrination. I don't want I mean, I 383 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: don't have kids, so I have to speak about this 384 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: in the generic sense or in the theoretical sense. But 385 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,679 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want my kids being taught critical race theory 386 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: of any kind or any sort of racial sensitivity training 387 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: or anything like that in school period, because we know 388 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: what this actually is. It is indoctrination into a kind 389 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: of racial Marxism in this country. And it's wrong and 390 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: it's unethical, and it makes students feel weird, and it 391 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: makes students feel like they're race, whether they're white or 392 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 1: non white, is somehow to be a defining characteristic of 393 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: who they are and how they should be treated and 394 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,959 Speaker 1: how they should treat others. It's wrong to do this, 395 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: but put that, just put that aside for a moment. 396 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: Curriculum transparency. What is the alternative to this curriculum secrecy, 397 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: which is essentially what teachers are relying on that they 398 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: can indoctrinate children and the kids don't really because they 399 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: don't know. That's the whole point. Why do we know 400 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: that the Marxists want to get the kids young. Why 401 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: do the commies want to brainwash your children before they 402 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: actually know what commies are? Then it's a lot harder 403 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: to undo the work. Right Then, all of a sudden, 404 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 1: you're dealing with a child who's just as they grow 405 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: up and they begin to formulate their worldview, their political opinions. 406 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: They're walking around saying, whose streets are streets? We need 407 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: the Great New Deal, you know, stuff like that. All 408 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're saying, wait, where did this come from? Ah. 409 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: At that point, it's you know, I've already got a 410 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: challenge on your hands. You've got a little you thought 411 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: you're you've got little little Timmy or little Sarah, And 412 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: it's actually a little wokester running around. And this is 413 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: what happens. And it certainly happens at the college level. 414 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I know so many people who say their 415 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: kids come back from college and all of a sudden, 416 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: they're so in doctor and the indoctrination starts right away. 417 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: I remember in my own college experience. See for me, 418 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: when I was at Amherst College in Massachusetts, which is 419 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: a very left wing school. It presents itself as everyone's 420 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: walking around and you know, fleece vests and playing lacrosse. 421 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: But it's actually ideologically politically very left wing. And I 422 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 1: didn't play lacrosse, by the way. When I remember being 423 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: there and right away there were these full on indoctrination classes, 424 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: and the indoctrination classes were on a whole range of issues, 425 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: but essentially the usual diversity inclusion, white privilege. White people 426 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: are oppressors. If you're white, you have to always be 427 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: anious of the fact that you're part of the you know, 428 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: the the dominant paradigm in society and all this other stuff. 429 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: And you say, wait, what, all these kids show up 430 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: at school. They're living in the America today. They're saying that, 431 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: you know that they like everybody. They don't care what 432 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: anyone's skin color is, or race or anything else. So 433 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: they just show up. They just want to make friends, 434 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 1: they want to hang out. They won't have a good 435 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: time and learn some stuff. Oh no, not allowed, Gotta 436 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: be indoctrinated right away. Well, that's at least with you know, 437 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,479 Speaker 1: eighteen year olds. What goes on in the school system 438 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: right now when we've seen it from the training materials 439 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: and it always I give props to Chris Ruffo of 440 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: the Manhattan Institute for being the guy who really spearheaded 441 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: a lot of this and got he got the primary 442 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: source documents out there. It was so effective because they 443 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: would say, oh, we're not teaching critical race theory and 444 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,719 Speaker 1: then say, well, what's this whole thing about doing, you know, 445 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: calling out your privilege or doing separation of children into 446 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 1: different racial groups, and then they get to talk about 447 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: how they feel about their privilege visa the other groups. 448 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: All this stuff that was being done in lots of 449 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: schools across the country and because of zoom classes, you see, 450 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: this all comes back to the idea of transparency. It 451 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: was because students were at home and parents were within 452 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: earshot that they start to say, huh, what are my 453 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: kids being taught by this public school? Or private or 454 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: parochial schools do the same stuff a lot of the time. 455 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: What are they being taught? And then when they showed 456 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: up at school boards, what happened? Oh, then it's you 457 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: be quiet. Your children don't belong to you. They belong 458 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: to the community. Again the commies showing their hand. They 459 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: belong to the collective. You don't get to make a 460 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: determination about your kids schooling and their futures will do 461 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: that for you. One thing that the American people still 462 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: have as a lot of parents who are protective of 463 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: their children and won't take any crap when it comes 464 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: to their kids, and when they're told to shut up, 465 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 1: they know there's something wrong. And when they're told by 466 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: the Biden regime that if they show up at school 467 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 1: board meetings and voice their displeasure, which I thought was 468 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: kind of the whole purpose of the school board meetings. 469 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: You know, when they're upset about something, they may end 470 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: up on some kind of a terror watch last or 471 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: they're insurrectionists and education or whatever, as we saw with 472 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: this Biden regime, are horrendous overreach and obviously meant to 473 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: have a chilling effect on parents speaking out against this madness, 474 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: very clearly speaking out against this madness right, And do 475 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: you know what they're saying about this effort now to 476 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: get curriculum transparency. I love that we've got a name 477 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: for it too, because it really allows us to hone 478 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 1: in on this that it will create censorship. Oh, first 479 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: of all, that's kind of funny, isn't it. I thought 480 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: the left loved censorship. Look what they do with social media. 481 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: You've got the white House, the Biden regime running around 482 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: telling big Tech that you have to shut down anybody 483 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: who does not go along with a preferred line when 484 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 1: it comes to COVID restrictions, masks, all the rest of it. 485 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: So they're already openly calling for censorship as part of 486 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 1: the Biden regime, as you know. But just put that 487 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: aside for a second, because the hypocrisy of the Left 488 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: claiming to be upset about censorship given what they're doing 489 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: during COVID, given that they wouldn't allow the Hunter Biden 490 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: laptop story to be told right before the election ten 491 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: percent for the big guy. Remember that, all real, all true? 492 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: Oh we thought it was hacked material. No they didn't, 493 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 1: lying lying in the moment and now lying about it afterwards. 494 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: But beyond that, why wouldn't they want to show exactly 495 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: what the kids are being taught. Isn't that just basic? 496 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: It's so easy now technology has made it easy. Show 497 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: what the lesson plan is, Show what the kids are learning. 498 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,239 Speaker 1: Parents can then supplement it more at home, they can 499 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: talk to their kids about it. It's just nothing but 500 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: upside See, this is a problem they're going to have here. 501 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: There is no their claim of oh, it's going to 502 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: make parents if parents are teaching something that I'm sorry, 503 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: if students are being taught things by teachers that make 504 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: parents uncomfortable, the parents have a right to know. The 505 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: parents have a right to know. Now, yeah, maybe there's 506 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: someone who's gonna, oh, you can't teach that, and you know, 507 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: and they've got some weird ideas about I don't know, 508 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: the flat Earth society or something. That's not what they're 509 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: worried about. That the teachers unions and the public school 510 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: system wants to continue to get away with teaching critical 511 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: race theory and they don't want anyone to be able 512 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: to stand in the way. And all that has to happen. 513 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: It's for people to know, parents to know what's really 514 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: going on. Then the whole system starts to crumble. They 515 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: can't get away with it the same way. And as 516 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: I was saying, it's all upside. Not only will it 517 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: prevent teachers from being able to indoctrinate kids against the 518 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: wishes of their children, it goes beyond that. It means 519 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: and now parents can say, oh, wow, that's so interesting 520 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 1: learning that today. You know, maybe we'll go to the 521 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: museum and check out an exhibit that I'll tie into that, 522 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: or maybe i'll I can recommend a book or we 523 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: can read a book together, or that will supplement that. 524 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: Or you know, why can't parents know? Why can't they 525 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: be more involved? Because they want to indoctrinate your kids, 526 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: and as true commies, they think that your kids belong 527 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: to them, really to the community, not to the parents, 528 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: not to the family.

Tomorrow we'll have a 566 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: Senator Rand Paul on the show and also Art Laugher, 567 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: former Reagan economic advisor, so we'll get to talk to 568 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: him a bit about just what exactly the Biden regime. 569 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fun discussion about what the Biden 570 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: regime is doing wrong, which there's gonna be a lot. 571 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot we can talk about. They 572 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 1: are not bringing the best and the and the brightest 573 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: to the forefrontier with the policy decision making we see 574 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: from Biden's team. We also have the ongoing back and 575 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: forth over what feels like such a small story, but 576 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: it's turned into a I'm past in a teapot, as 577 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: they say. You have the Supreme Court hearing oral arguments 578 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: again this week, and there was this story that got 579 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: out about how Neil Gorsitch, one of the Supreme Court justices, 580 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: was not wearing a mask, and this made Sonia Sotomayor afraid, 581 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: and therefore she would not go with the rest of 582 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: the justices. She would virtually join for all oral arguments. 583 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: And that Gorsitch was doing this in defiance of the 584 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: will expressed will of his colleagues. Essentially, he was being 585 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: an unmasked bandit as I am in my gym, in 586 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: my building, an unmasked bandit in the Supreme Court. And 587 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: they made a big thing of this because, as you know, 588 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: the Libs loved a mask shame. It's one of their 589 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: favorite pastimes, as hypocritical and absurd as it as they 590 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: love do mask shame. And here is, for example, them 591 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: doing just that to justice Gorsitch played tragically. Anti mask 592 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 1: insanity has now reached the highest court in the land. 593 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: And why is it that so many conservatives in public 594 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,719 Speaker 1: life who claim to be such pious Christians and obsess 595 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: over morals and decency are actually awful, awful people. Horsie 596 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: has the nerve to refuse to wear a mask indoors 597 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: while seated next to his colleague who's vulnerable to possible death. 598 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: That just seems ridiculous. Can you put a mask on 599 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: so hard? Justice Corsich had to know that this would 600 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: become a public controversy, and so I think he did 601 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: this as a branding opportunity. What's up with Justice Gorsich. 602 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: If all of the other including all of the other 603 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: conservative members of the Court, are willing to go along 604 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: with this, why not him? Every other justice is masking up, 605 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: even Clarence Sabbats, who doesn't seem to care about anybody. 606 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: Neil gorcis shame on you, Shame on you, Shame on 607 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,719 Speaker 1: all of them because it's not true. So I just wonder, 608 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: you know, if this is initially on the right. We 609 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: were thinking, this is why Clay and I updated the 610 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: story yesterday, were thinking, Wow, Gorsich deciding that he's just 611 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: not going to play by these absurd rules. And so 612 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: guess what. Turns out that Gorsitch and Soda Mayor put 613 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: out a joint statement saying they're warm colleagues and friends 614 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: and they don't agree in the law, but there's there's 615 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: no strife between them over this. And it turns out 616 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 1: that John Roberts, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, 617 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: has come out to say that no, he never said 618 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: that everyone has to wear a mask. That never happened. 619 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 1: So Gorcitch isn't defying anything or anyone here, and so 620 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 1: to Mayor because she is very concerned about her health. 621 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 1: Remember everyone every in the Supreme Court is vaccinated and boosted. 622 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: That is now insufficient vaccinated and boosted, and then the 623 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: additional protection of the mask must be necessary too. We 624 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 1: are led to believe as if that's going to make 625 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,919 Speaker 1: a damn bit of difference. We all know it's not 626 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: going to write. I mean, we're at that point. Although 627 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,280 Speaker 1: I know the libs you heard them there on TV. 628 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: Just wear the mask, no, how about no, how about 629 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: st being crazy? Libs start with that. But yeah, there 630 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 1: was false reporting on this. The NPR is standing by 631 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 1: their reporting. They're saying, well, Gorsitch not wearing the mask 632 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: is why Sodamayor wasn't there. But you know that no 633 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 1: one told them that. Apparently they just surmised that. So, 634 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: like I said, tempest in a teapot. But it just 635 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: goes to show you. I love this anti mask insanity. 636 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: We're not the ones that are forcing developmental delays on 637 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: children's speech, millions and millions of kids. We're not the 638 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: ones forcing learning loss on them and forcing them to 639 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: eat outside and freeze their little fingers off because we're 640 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: a bunch of cowards who have been overtaken by the 641 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: mass neurosis of Fauci. Isn No, that's the libs, that's 642 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: the crazy commies running around there. So I just want 643 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: to point that one out to you, and I also 644 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: want to say it all of you, thanks so much 645 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 1: for hanging out with me today.
