WEBVTT - Buck’s First Thoughts - 1/4/21 0:00:01.360 --> 0:00:04.120 You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton 0:00:04.160 --> 0:00:07.520 Show podcast. Get more from Buck by following him on 0:00:07.600 --> 0:00:11.440 social media at Buck Sexton on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. 0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:14.560 Welcome everybody, great to be here. Look. I was in 0:00:14.760 --> 0:00:19.919 Florida and it was amazing. It really was. It was 0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:22.960 like an advertisement for what can happen when your state 0:00:23.880 --> 0:00:26.880 is not run by people who are completely beholden the 0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:33.760 Democrat Party, when your state is not overtaken by those 0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:36.639 who either seek to control you or are too terrified, 0:00:36.760 --> 0:00:42.520 too anxious to make reasonable decisions to come to fair 0:00:42.560 --> 0:00:47.400 minded conclusions about the kind of trade offs involved in 0:00:47.479 --> 0:00:51.120 dealing with a pandemic like we're seeing right now. I 0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:54.040 was in Florida for a week, and what did I see? 0:00:54.840 --> 0:01:00.960 People going about their lives, going to businesses, going to restaurants. 0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:06.160 I went out to eat night after night, restaurants, open businesses, stores, 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:09.479 imagine this. I realized that I needed something. I had 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:13.120 to go buy something, and I didn't even have to 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:16.559 call ahead and say, hey, are you no I went 0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:19.800 to a bookstore in Florida. It was almost like a 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:23.280 time warp. And you might say, well, hold on a second, Buck, 0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:27.399 they must be engaged in an experiment a human sacrifice, 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:29.560 there must be a tremendous amount of loss as a 0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:35.320 result of their reckless policies in the Sunshine State. And 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.480 it turns out that's not true at all. In fact, 0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:45.040 Florida is, by the numbers, by fatalities, by hospitalizations, better off, 0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:48.960 has been throughout the course of the pandemic, and continues 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:54.880 to be better off. And it's two nearest states for comparison, 0:01:55.200 --> 0:02:01.600 New York and California. Florida is better off. Now, let's 0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:05.640 understand this. I've seen all these objections that will be raised. 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:08.560 I've seen all the people that say, oh no, look 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:11.359 at the number of cases, and they pick some arbitrary 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:15.000 Look at the cases in Florida from December eighteenth to 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:20.320 December twenty first. See, it's not better off. It's pathetic, 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:23.920 it's desperate. We can all tell what's going on here. 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:31.720 Let's understand this. For lockdowns to be even remotely worth it, 0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:36.320 for lockdowns to be intelligent public policy, there should be 0:02:36.400 --> 0:02:40.799 no debate when you see the numbers between cases, hospitalizations, 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:45.440 and deaths in states with the most stringent lockdowns versus 0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:52.600 those that have taken a more open approach. We should 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:56.080 be having a conversation about how Florida has two or 0:02:56.160 --> 0:03:00.000 three times the COVID cases, two or three times the death, 0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.440 not that it actually has less then states that have 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:08.240 been going through continuous lockdowns for months and months. It 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:14.760 should be absolutely obvious, it should be clear, and yet 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:19.040 it isn't. You don't even have to get into a 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:22.959 debate about whether Florida is better than New York when 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:25.640 it comes to how it has handled COVID, whether Florida 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.480 is better than California. And yes, we're talking about a 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:36.480 large Republican governed state versus two very large Democrat Democrat 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:41.200 governed states. This is about politics now because political parties 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:45.280 have made it so, because people that believe that Fauci 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:48.920 is some kind of a saint have convinced themselves than 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:55.800 anyone who doubts the wisdom of these catastrophic, irrational policies 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:57.760 is a bad person, as a person who doesn't care 0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:04.600 about human death, doesn't care how many people lose their lives. Well, 0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:09.840 as it turns out those people were wrong, they were wrong, 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.400 and we can see it, and we all need to 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:17.240 understand this. You need to be secure in the knowledge 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:20.000 that you have from seeing what's going on around you. 0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:23.599 With the country right now, you need to know that 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.600 the experts are not going to come over to your side, 0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:29.919 because this has become the experts and the elites unified 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:34.080 against those who believe that freedom and the Constitution and 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:38.080 the right to ask questions aren't supposed to be suspended 0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:44.240 the moment there's an emergency. If Florida, I was at restaurants, 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.320 I was out, I was seeing people living their lives. 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:50.159 I was down there with brothers, my two brothers, and 0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:53.280 my girlfriend and seeing various friends, some of whom you'd 0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:55.520 even know from this show and from conservative media, people 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.520 who either have moved down there and they were showing 0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:02.200 another way. You know, the states in our system are 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:07.800 supposed to be experiments in a sense. There's the essence 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:12.440 of the states as laboratories for different policies, and the 0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:17.640 Democrat obsession with the most stringent lockdowns possible, the Democrats 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:24.479 obsession with making this as horrific and economic and emotional 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:30.680 and psychological cost as possible from this pandemic. It's not 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.520 going to stop. We have to stop them. We have 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:36.440 to win the argument. They don't even see the results 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:39.320 that we see and come to the same conclusion they 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.440 don't turn around and say, you know what, you're right. 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.400 We shouldn't have done this, This was a bad idea. No, 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:48.880 they turn around, they say, we need more of it, 0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:53.279 we need more double down, triple down. Why hasn't it 0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:55.720 worked because we haven't done it well enough. They ignore. 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:57.720 They always talked about the data in the early days 0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:00.680 of this, and Fauci and the others talk about their 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.400 adherence to the data. Well, when you point out that 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.400 compliance when it comes to masking, compliance when it comes 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:12.400 to these draconian policies is higher than it has ever been, 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.760 and particularly in places like New York and California. And 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:18.239 I'm just most familiar with the numbers in those states. 0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:19.960 There are others you could put in there as well. 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:22.719 But they said that they figured it out, they knew 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:26.600 what to do, They had the facts, you see, and 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:31.360 so they told tens of millions of people, Cancel Thanksgiving, 0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:35.239 cancel Christmas, don't see your loved ones live in fear. 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:39.080 Watch your business be shut down, watch your bank account, 0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:43.640 watch your life savings evaporate, because it's the only way 0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:47.560 you'll be safe. And now what you see is that 0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:50.040 we had to do all that. We had no choice 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.480 they made us. They use the force of the state, 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:57.599 and we're not safe. The numbers are off the charts, 0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:02.960 cases rising, as though this stuff we're doing doesn't really 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:08.919 stop it at all. That's where we are observe it. 0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:11.400 See it for yourself. I came back from Florida, I 0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:13.640 was on the plane. I get to New York and 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:17.800 sure enough there's members of the National Guard taking data 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:21.720 because they insist, they insist that we fill out all 0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:25.080 this information about ourselves so that we can be tested 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:29.280 and test and traced. What is that going to do. 0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:33.040 By the time they contact me, a week will have passed. 0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:38.120 I'll already be beyond the quarantine phase. They've got hundreds 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:40.960 of thousands, now a million New Yorkers say that they've 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:46.080 tested positive for COVID. A million, that's the latest number 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:48.360 you see. And the claim is what they're going to 0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:50.920 be able to call, every contact every person. You see, 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:56.040 This was idiotic from the start. You cannot test and 0:07:56.160 --> 0:08:02.119 trace a million people. Remind the actual millions of people 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:03.840 beyond that that you have no idea whether they have 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:07.640 this or not. New York COVID hospitalizations are up eighty 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:12.600 percent in four weeks. A million residents have tested positive. 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:17.520 And what is Governor Cuomo doing. He's saying that they'll 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:21.360 find people a million dollars. Now, any practitioner who gives 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.920 a COVID vaccine to somebody who's not considered at the 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.840 high priority, will we find a million dollars. Oh, that's right. 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:34.760 Make it so that now there are enormous penalties attached 0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:37.280 to giving someone a vaccine that could save their life 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:40.520 if it's not in the order that a bunch of 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:45.520 feckless bureaucrats decide that's going to make the vaccine get 0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:51.800 distributed faster, that's gonna help. No, they haven't helped at all. 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:55.800 They've been catastrophic failures. In fact, chief among them has 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:58.040 been the governor of New York, although the governor of 0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:02.360 California is right behind him. And now we have this 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:09.240 incoming Biden administration that has learned none of the actual 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.240 lessons based on the data, and they're going to do 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.439 exactly what has been done all along and that has 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:18.880 failed all along. And if we don't stop them, if 0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:21.720 we don't win the argument and pushback and non comply, 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:26.800 everyone will eventually see this as one of the greatest 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:30.320 periods of national folly of the last hundred years. I mean, 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:33.480 this is insane what we're doing. You can see it 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:37.000 for yourself. I saw it. People are going about their 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:40.240 lives in Florida. Yes there are cases there. Yes, it's 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:43.360 a very serious disease. It's very dangerous to the elderly. 0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:48.439 And yet you can still allow life to continue while 0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:53.360 trying to take reasonable steps to protect yourself, reasonable precautions. 0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:56.840 What you see in these Democrat enclaves, and what you 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:01.079 will see from the federal level from Biden Harris is unreasonable. 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:08.600 You'll see unreasonable steps, not just continued, enhanced, expanded, they'll 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:14.600 go even further into this, which is just the height 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:19.080 of stupidity. We can have our freedom back, or at 0:10:19.160 --> 0:10:22.080 least much more of it than we've had. We can 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:27.440 have our constitutional rights back. Freedom is our fight. This 0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:30.880 year twenty twenty one, I'm telling you right now, is 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:33.400 going to be all about the fight for liberty on 0:10:33.440 --> 0:10:37.160 an individual basis and for a free society. You have 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:41.760 the lockdowns, you have the tech censors. You have a 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:48.160 Democrat party that increasingly bears its authoritarian things without any 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:53.480 sense whatsoever of fair play and good faith toward the 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:55.839 other side. Because they haven't had it for years because 0:10:55.840 --> 0:11:00.840 Trump defeating Trump in their minds, justified absolutely anything. This 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:03.240 year is going to be about the fight for freedom. 0:11:03.240 --> 0:11:04.960 Make no mistake about it. I don't care who the 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.760 president ends up being. I don't care who ends up 0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:12.440 winning the next two seats in this Georgia runoff. It's 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:15.200 going to be about taking back our freedom from those 0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:18.000 who have taken it away from us and who are 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:21.160 ultimately I think terrified about what would happen if the 0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:27.520 American people came to the realization that this was all for. 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:33.920 What exactly the masked mania, the lockdowns, the constant lectures 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:37.960 who are welly, and propaganda everywhere about hand washing and 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:43.000 social distancing, What exactly did that save us from? Where 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:45.880 are the results? Where's the upside of any of that 0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:51.520 as a policy? If you say that, they'll just yell 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:54.960 at you that you don't believe in science, and then 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:57.760 they'll tell you that there are more than two genders. 0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:00.880 That's the world we live in now in this country. 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:05.560 Thanks for listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast.

Give or take 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:22.679 from I guess what would call it G Day for Georgia. 0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:25.319 Not quite D Day, but it's a big day Tomorrow. 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:31.200 We have two Senate seats hanging in the ballots, and 0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:36.160 with those two seats control of the Senate. And if 0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:38.640 the Democrats were to manage to take this and if 0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:42.400 the current path which will have a Biden Harris presidency continues, 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:46.160 which I think we all have to assume it will. 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:48.640 That doesn't mean we give up the fight, but it 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:50.960 means that we have to prepare for this reality. And 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:52.520 that's what I've been telling you for weeks, and I 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.440 think now if we all look back at that, in fairness, 0:12:55.520 --> 0:13:02.000 that was the correct approach fight. But prepare right. This 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:04.840 is that this means you, you know, you keep throwing, 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:07.520 you keep throwing the ball, you keep running up the middle. 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:10.240 It doesn't matter if you're down two touchdowns, but you know, 0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:12.360 you also got to be ready for the possibility that 0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:15.840 you're not going to the super Bowl. But in Georgia, 0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:20.400 what we see are two Democrat candidates who are really 0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:25.439 particularly well suited to show you what the Democrat Party 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:29.720 has has become in this moment, and notably this ass 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:35.439 Off character, who is it's almost like a a elitist 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:39.679 democrat created in a lab. I mean this guy, nothing 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:43.440 about him, nothing about him speaks to strength or wisdom 0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.920 or a good judgment. He's just he's just a little 0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:51.679 little rich boy who wants to be important and powerful. 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:55.320 And so he figures if he says, if he mouths 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.520 the right slogans, if he says the right things, ass 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:00.800 Off will get to be a center. And look, there 0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:04.040 are plenty of clownish politicians on both sides. And there 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:07.360 are people who, yeah, they've got a lot of access 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:10.240 to money, maybe from their family, whatever it may be, 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:13.600 and they're not particularly impressive either. But this Assoff guy, 0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:19.520 I gotta say, not not somebody that you'd wanted your foxhole, 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:23.920 that is for sure. Kelly Lefler. I was surprised that 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:27.400 this was Kelly Leffler, able able to throw throw some elbows, 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:30.760 wouldn't necessary here? She is play one. Georgia knows that 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:34.120 John Assoff is a pathological liar. He's a trust fund 0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:37.080 socialist whose only job has been working for the Chinese 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:40.280 Communist Party in recent years. And look, here's the deal. 0:14:40.280 --> 0:14:42.680 If we're gonna tell lies about my campaign, let's tell 0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:45.800 the truth about who he's campaigning with this is the truth. 0:14:46.200 --> 0:14:50.120 Radical liberal Rafael Warnock has been involved in child abuse, 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:55.640 domestic abuse. He's someone who has praised Fidel Castro, Louis Ferricon, 0:14:56.120 --> 0:15:01.600 Carl Mars, James Cone. These are radicals. Has attacked our military, 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:05.560 our police, our small businesses, and every Georgian who wants 0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:07.720 to live the American dream. So I'm not going to 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:10.720 be lectured by some thirty three year old trust fund 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:14.760 socialist who's a pathological liar. Let it rip, Kelly, let 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:17.280 it rip. I like it, I like gosh. She gets 0:15:17.400 --> 0:15:19.800 right to it and decides that she's not not going 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:22.000 to hold back on this guy, who really does remind 0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:25.880 me very much of that Obama eramime of pajama Boy, 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:29.200 the guy picking if you remember, he was picking his 0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:32.880 Obamacare plan and his pajamas drinking tea. He kind of 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:35.920 even looks a little bit like us off. But not 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:39.320 that that matters. It's kind of funny, though, So Georgia 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:44.000 matters a whole lot, because if we lose Georgia, well 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:49.840 then we all recognize that if we lose Georgia, if 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:53.040 we lose both of these Senate seats, the Democrats are 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:56.920 almost certain to have unified control. And really, let's be honest, folks, 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.520 it's ninety nine percent that that's what's going to happen. 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.200 If they take those Senate seats, they will have unified 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:06.840 control the government. Nancy Pelosi was just voted in as 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:08.640 a Speaker of the House. You know, my favorite thing 0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:12.960 about that is talking about a chardonnay socialist. I mean, 0:16:13.680 --> 0:16:18.160 Nancy is should we call her Pino Nancy or Chardonnaye Nancy. 0:16:18.440 --> 0:16:24.200 She's among the most outrageous hypocrites and frauds you could 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:26.360 find in the Democrat Party, which is saying a lot. 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:28.600 I mean, that's quite impressive to pull off that feat. 0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:33.560 But Chardonnaye Nancy as now is now the Speaker of 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:36.080 the House, and the next as the next Congress now 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:41.040 is going about their business. And she also required the 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:43.480 votes of some members of Congress who had recently tested 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:45.960 positive for COVID. But we're told to fly in and 0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:51.040 vote anyway. I saw this. I just it's amazing, isn't it. 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:53.600 You can't say it's unbelievable, because of course you believe it, 0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:58.080 Because of course COVID is so dangerous and so horrible 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:02.120 that you can't be in the same home over the 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:05.239 holidays as loved ones, including loved ones who just by 0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:09.919 nature of father time don't have much time left. You 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:13.879 can't see them. But if a Democrat who's important is 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:16.080 going to have a funeral, well, then the COVID rules 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:20.000 get waived. If a Democrat needs votes on the floor 0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:22.920 of the Congress, then the COVID rules get waived. Almost 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:26.439 like the virus has a political affiliation, you know, the 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:28.920 virus will back off. And you saw this even over 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:33.560 the over the last summer when suddenly mass gatherings were 0:17:33.640 --> 0:17:38.359 safe during COVID outbreaks because it was necessary for public 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:42.560 health for BLM to burn down stores, loot buildings, and 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:47.959 attack strangers for no reason. Yeah, that's the kind Those 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:49.760 are the kind of public health experts that we've been 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:52.400 listening to. No one to get me started on doctor Fauci. 0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:55.040 That guy is one of the biggest catastrophes to befall America. 0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:59.000 Fauci belongs in the history books alongside generals in World 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:03.200 War One who sent thousands and thousands of men directly 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:05.360 into the machine guns hoping the other side would run 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:09.280 out of ammo. You're in the freedom hunt. This is 0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:12.960 the buck Sexton show podcast from more buck Head to 0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:16.600 Bucksexton dot com and remember to subscribe to the podcast. 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:22.040 But while we are on the subject of socialism for 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.840 the rich, which my Republican friends have suddenly become very 0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:30.560 concerned about, let me talk about the Trump tax proposal 0:18:31.040 --> 0:18:33.720 that was pushed very hard by Senator McConnell and the 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:37.399 Republican leadership and where I think every Republican voted for it. 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:40.400 You want to talk about socialism for the rich, it 0:18:40.480 --> 0:18:44.600 is not the bill that puts two thousand dollars into 0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:48.520 working class hands all over this country. That ain't socialism 0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:51.359 for the rich. This is socialism for the rich in 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.600 that bill. Amazon. Oh by the way, I must say 0:18:54.680 --> 0:18:59.200 this if I may, we' are quoting the liberal Washington 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:04.199 Post owned by Jeff Bezos, the wealthiest guy in the world. 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:09.720 So here is Jeff Bezos's company Amazon, and they received 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:13.280 a tax threebite. They paid nothing in two and eighteen 0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:17.959 in federal taxes. That's a corrupt tax system to begin with. 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.000 But then on top of that, they received a hundred 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:24.280 and twenty nine million dollars as a tax threebite. That, 0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:30.000 Senator Thune, is what socialism for the rich. There's one 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:35.320 thing that Bernie Sanders knows that's socialism, that's for sure. 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:39.600 He's not necessarily honest about socialism, but he certainly is 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:42.600 quite familiar with it. Is it's his ideology. I mean, 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:46.200 it's this guy's reason for being. It's why he is 0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:49.400 a senator. That's why he was almost the Democrat candidate 0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:52.520 for the presidency. And I wish he had been, because 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:55.639 at least with Sanders, you get some honesty about what 0:19:55.680 --> 0:19:59.240 the Democrat Party is. At least with Sanders, they're more 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:04.320 upfront about it. Notice how he goes after corporations and 0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.240 this is just all for show. It's almost like a 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:10.320 Bernie Sanders candidacy. It's to make it seem it's to 0:20:10.359 --> 0:20:13.920 make it seem like there's an openness about the radical 0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:15.920 aims of the Democrat Party to get the base all 0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:18.879 on board. But they're not going to let them really 0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:23.680 run the show because they don't understand the bargain. The radicals, 0:20:23.720 --> 0:20:26.080 the squad, the people in the Democrat Party on the 0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:30.920 far left, they're there to make noises about these things, 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:32.159 but they're not the ones that are really going to 0:20:32.240 --> 0:20:35.520 run things. AOC just voted for Nancy Pelosi to be 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:37.800 Speaker of the House. That happened. I think the whole 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.720 squad actually voted for Nancy Pelosi. Now is what do 0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.280 we learn from all of this. The radical left, the 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:47.840 activist class with the Democrat Party. They're there to pretend 0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:53.800 that all they care about is social justice, advancing minorities 0:20:54.359 --> 0:21:00.679 interests and advancing socialism for the poor, for the working class, 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:02.640 and for the poor, but really for the poor, actually 0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:07.439 for the non working class, and for the elites. On 0:21:07.480 --> 0:21:10.879 the other side, you have Democrats like Pelosi, who this 0:21:10.960 --> 0:21:14.280 is the whole game. Who benefits from the Democrat Party 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:16.280 the most. It's the people that are the most dependent 0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:20.360 on government and the people who benefit the most from government. 0:21:20.760 --> 0:21:24.000 And that does include very powerful corporate interest. That does 0:21:24.040 --> 0:21:29.879 include libs who run the tech monopolies. It includes the 0:21:29.960 --> 0:21:32.960 leftists who are in charge of places like Amazon and 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:37.120 Google and others. Yeah, that's right. They like the government 0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:40.600 because it can be an anti competitive edge for them. 0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:44.440 It can prevent them from having to really deal on 0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:48.920 in a free and fair market place with opposition. Right, 0:21:48.960 --> 0:21:51.159 the more regulations you have, the more carve outs in 0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:54.720 the tax code, the more legal hurdles, and all the 0:21:54.760 --> 0:21:59.240 different individuals back office that you have to have to 0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:03.440 comply with the different dictates from DC. Well, if you're 0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:05.840 already a mega corporation, you're making a ton of money, 0:22:06.280 --> 0:22:11.320 you're good to go. Big business loves big government. Don't 0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:15.480 ever forget that there especially big business that can continue 0:22:15.520 --> 0:22:19.760 to find ways to benefit from things like the tax 0:22:19.800 --> 0:22:22.720 coach so Bernie Sanders railing on about two thousand dollars 0:22:22.760 --> 0:22:26.240 to Americans. This is where Trump and Bernie agree, And 0:22:26.320 --> 0:22:28.959 there is something because of the populous nature of some 0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:32.200 of Trump's ideas and some of Bernie Sanders ideas, there 0:22:32.280 --> 0:22:36.480 is something too the crossover. And there has been on trade. 0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:40.960 There has been on America first and the workers in 0:22:41.520 --> 0:22:47.000 this country getting the benefits of being Americans over foreigners, 0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:51.080 and having jobs outsourced and all the rest of it. Now, 0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:53.879 that work is far from done, and as we know, 0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:56.600 there are a lot of a lot of continued battles 0:22:56.600 --> 0:22:58.919 we have to deal with from the Trump from the 0:22:58.960 --> 0:23:02.120 Trump first term. But I'm just telling you right now, 0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:05.679 I don't know why Republicans. It's almost like they're trying 0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:08.760 to lose these two Georgia Senate seeds. It's almost like 0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:13.600 they don't want to be back in the mix. I 0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:16.480 don't know what to say. Now. There's there are two 0:23:16.560 --> 0:23:21.960 elements here. There are the Lynnwood I'm crazy going to 0:23:22.040 --> 0:23:25.400 say insane things about the election, which is so damaging 0:23:25.400 --> 0:23:30.080 because it undermines the very real questions and concerns about 0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:33.120 the election, about the integrity of the election, the fraud, 0:23:34.040 --> 0:23:38.120 all of that. Right, what's a great way to undermine 0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:42.720 real objections. It starts to feel like this guy Lynnwood 0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:44.960 is either crazy or he's a trojan horse for the left, 0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:48.520 because the best way to undermine the real objections is 0:23:48.560 --> 0:23:52.119 to constantly spout nonsense. And if you look at this 0:23:52.119 --> 0:23:54.240 guy's Twitter feed, I'm not even gonna get into it, 0:23:54.280 --> 0:23:57.560 but the guy's just gibberish. It's just crazy stuff that 0:23:57.600 --> 0:24:00.320 he's saying now, And there was a time I'm when 0:24:00.320 --> 0:24:02.399 I know many Trump supporters were looking to him because 0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:05.480 he was saying, oh, no, we're gonna it's all a 0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:08.200 fraud and we're gonna prove it. And I'm saying, okay, great, 0:24:08.240 --> 0:24:10.560 show me that proof. I think it was a fraud too, 0:24:10.640 --> 0:24:15.320 Where's where's the proof? And other people are looking at 0:24:15.359 --> 0:24:20.720 this and talking about double voting, and they're talking about 0:24:21.400 --> 0:24:23.359 dead people voting and those are the those are the 0:24:23.359 --> 0:24:28.199 real considerations of concerns. What do you have when you 0:24:28.280 --> 0:24:30.120 when you look at the lynn Woods of the world, 0:24:30.160 --> 0:24:32.840 What are they telling you? What are they saying? I 0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:36.720 can't even it's too silly to even repeat. I mean, 0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:41.320 he's talking about people being tried for treason and just 0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:46.760 just crazy stuff. So remember that there are those who 0:24:46.840 --> 0:24:50.520 pretend to be in this fight and they're actually helping 0:24:50.640 --> 0:24:55.760 the other side. There are those who are holding themselves 0:24:55.800 --> 0:24:59.520 up as the great champions of MAGA, and they are 0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:04.440 act satively assisting. They are aiding and abetting the pelosite 0:25:04.560 --> 0:25:08.280 left and the Democrats, the socialists, and they're doing so 0:25:08.400 --> 0:25:10.760 either because they're too stupid to know otherwise they're more 0:25:10.840 --> 0:25:17.919 likely they're frauds. They're frauds, and they understand exactly what 0:25:17.960 --> 0:25:21.560 they're doing. Actually, Dennison, exactly what's going on here? Now? 0:25:21.720 --> 0:25:25.240 There was this phone call over the weekend that was 0:25:25.280 --> 0:25:29.880 released by this Georgia Secretary of State, Raffensburger. And this 0:25:29.960 --> 0:25:33.760 guy again, he's a little rich boy, okay, and you 0:25:33.800 --> 0:25:37.800 know that's just the truth. So Raffensburger is a rich 0:25:37.840 --> 0:25:39.760 guy who wanted to be important in Georgia. So he 0:25:39.800 --> 0:25:42.960 becomes Secretary of State, really has no experience or knowledge. 0:25:43.000 --> 0:25:45.880 That's but okay, look, you know he's got the role. 0:25:46.400 --> 0:25:49.760 So we got to deal with this. And Trump called them, 0:25:49.800 --> 0:25:53.000
