1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 2: Second hour of Clay and Buck starts right now. Everybody 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,639 Speaker 2: appreciate you being here with us eight hundred two two 5 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 2: eighty two on the phone lines to take more calls 6 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 2: in the back of this hour, and there's an update 7 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: from the Daniel Penny case. You'll recall Daniel Penny is 8 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 2: facing manslaughter charges for the choking death of Jordan Neely. 9 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,240 Speaker 2: This was something that for a lot of New Yorkers 10 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: and people who have been New Yorkers and spend a 11 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: ton of time in the New York Subway like me, 12 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 2: they're very strong feelings about this. Penny is a marine 13 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: and he gave the for the first time. He came 14 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 2: forward and released a video. I think he realizes that 15 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: the politics of this are going to effect and the 16 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: perception of it's very much going to effect the outcome. 17 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: So he's put a video out where he describes what 18 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 2: it was like that day when Neely came on the subway. 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,639 Speaker 2: I would just note for all of you before before 20 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 2: we hear from Penny from this video, he says that 21 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: or it should be pointed out that the media has 22 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: been trying to convince everybody, the CNN and others that 23 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: Jordan Neely was a beloved Michael Jackson impersonator. That was 24 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: the story they were going with. What they left out 25 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: is that Jordan Neely had recently punched an elderly woman 26 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: in the face, shattering her nose in her eye socket. 27 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 2: That Jordan Neely had been arrested many many times over 28 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: the years and was known to menace people. 29 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:52,639 Speaker 1: On the subway system. 30 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 2: And that's that's in a subway system where I would 31 00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 2: note in case anyone's hasn't seen this over the weekend, 32 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: this story broke where a twenty nine year old woman 33 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,399 Speaker 2: on Friday, nine pm. So after the show finished airing 34 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: nine pm EASTERIRT on Friday, the Chambers Street subway station. 35 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 2: Subway station I've spent a ton of time in A 36 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: woman had to fight off a stranger who exposed himself 37 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 2: to her in a subway car, punched her, pinned her 38 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 2: to the ground, and tried to rape her. 39 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: The man escaped. 40 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: She was able to fight him off, but the obviously 41 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: she had she had injuries. He punched her in the face, 42 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 2: he escaped. He is described as a man with a 43 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: dark complexion between the ages of thirty and forty, five 44 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: foot six inches tall, wearing a sweatshirt and pants. 45 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: That's the full description they gave of him. 46 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: But this is what it's like to be on the 47 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,399 Speaker 2: subway clay for people these days. Twenty nine year old woman, 48 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 2: some crazy guy pulls his pants down, punches her in 49 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 2: the face and tries to rape it right there on 50 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: a that's the Chamber Street subby. That's a very crowded, 51 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: very you know, nine o'clock on a Friday night, all right, 52 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: So that's the reality of New York these days, whereby 53 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 2: that just happened. Daniel Penny saw a lunatic threatening people, 54 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: and so he decided to step in and do something. 55 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 2: And he's put out a video where he's telling you 56 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 2: this is what it was like on that subway. Play it. 57 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,519 Speaker 3: You could see in the video there's a clear rise 58 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: and fall of his chest indicating that he's breathing. I'm 59 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 3: trying to restrain him from him being able to carry 60 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 3: out the threats. And then some people say that this 61 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 3: was about race, which is absolutely ridiculous. I didn't see 62 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: a black man threatening passengers. I saw a man threatening passengers. 63 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: That's a lot of whom were people of color. A 64 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: man who helped restrain mister Neali was a person of color. 65 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 3: And a few days after the incident, I read in 66 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: the papers that a woman of color came out and 67 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: called me a hero. 68 00:03:58,040 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 4: What. 69 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 3: I don't believe that I'm a but she was one 70 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 3: of those people that I was trying to protect. 71 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 2: I think, I think that Daniel Penny is a heroic guy. 72 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: He wasn't trying to kill Jordan Neely. He makes that clear. 73 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: He says he was just applying the force necessary to 74 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: get him to stop being a threat. And Clay this 75 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: guy was running around the subway, according to other eyewitnesses, 76 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 2: threatening to kill people and saying he would go to jail. 77 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 2: And he is a violent criminal with a long criminal history. 78 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: And what is it? 79 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: So the New York DA wants you to wait and 80 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 2: see if you get stabbed in the face before you 81 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: can do anything. 82 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 5: That's the rule now in New York. Look the reason 83 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 5: he got charged because he's white. I mean, this is 84 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 5: the reality. And this to me ties in with the 85 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 5: Trump case as well, Buck, because what we have is 86 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 5: an anecdote and narrative driven justice department in many parts 87 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 5: of this country and what I mean by that is, 88 00:04:54,839 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 5: it's not the facts, it's not the consistent application of justice, 89 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 5: no matter who the person is. It's a design and 90 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 5: then a search for a narrative to fulfill the design. 91 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 5: And let me explain exactly what I mean by that. 92 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 5: When Joe Biden comes out and says domestic extremism, right 93 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 5: wing terrorist, white supremacist are the biggest threat that exists 94 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 5: in this country, he is grabbing his megaphone and yelling 95 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 5: that to every prosecutor and every investigator anywhere in the country. 96 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 5: And if you are told by your boss that this 97 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 5: is the priority, you are going to go out and 98 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 5: you are going to find evidence that supports the premise 99 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 5: under which he's making the case, even if it is 100 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 5: not justified by the raw data. And that's the case 101 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 5: with Daniel Penny. I would submit to you that if 102 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 5: this is a black guy putting that is putting this 103 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 5: guy in a choke hold, none of us ever hear 104 00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 5: about it. Not only does this story not result in charges, 105 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 5: not one person listening to us right now even knows 106 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 5: it happens. Because black on black violence almost never makes 107 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 5: the news. The only reason this is a story and 108 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 5: the only reason these are charges that were brought is 109 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 5: because Daniel Penny's a white guy. Same thing happened with 110 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 5: Donald Trump. The only reason Donald Trump is getting charged 111 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 5: is because of his political background. Right now, you can argue, 112 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 5: as we did, that Trump behaved in a reckless fashion 113 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 5: to allow himself to be charged because they were going 114 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 5: through everything he had done with a fine tooth comb 115 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 5: trying to find something to get him on. But that 116 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 5: is what happens when narrative overtakes justice. Buck, There's a 117 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 5: reason why lady justice is blind. Go look at the 118 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 5: scales of justice. You should not be applying justice based 119 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 5: on the identity of the accused. 120 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 2: There is a huge incentive for the Democrat Party and 121 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: the Democrat machinery to constantly create this fear of white 122 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 2: racist violence all the time, the biggest threat to the country. 123 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: Joe Biden went to a historic black college and said 124 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: white nationalism or white supremacy is the biggest threat to America. 125 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: Right now, that's the President of the United States saying 126 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: that what is this rooted in? Where is this actually happening? Well, 127 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 2: as we know, it's actually quite rare that there is 128 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: an incident of interracial violence where a white person is, 129 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 2: you know, kills a black person in a criminal contact. 130 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 2: It's actually statistically quite rare. Most violent crime is within 131 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 2: the same race. But if you're looking at interracial crime, 132 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 2: as Elon Musk shared the data on this, it is 133 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: disproportionately ten to one black on white. That's statistics FBI. 134 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: You can look at that. 135 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: The Democrat party. Remember when Elon shared that, they all, 136 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, he was sharing FBI dot gov data. 137 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: If we want to have a conversation about what's happening 138 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 2: based on data, I think we should all be able 139 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 2: to look at and discuss the data. No one denies 140 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: that's the data. You know, they did clearly started talking 141 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: about intraracial Well, hold on, that was in the conversation. 142 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: The conversation was interracial violence that Elon Musk was waging on. Okay, 143 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 2: So in this case, though, I think why it's so 144 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: important for Daniel, I mean Daniel Penny. I think it's 145 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: somewhat unusual for someone to make a statement like this 146 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 2: when they're under indictment, they're facing a manslaughter. 147 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: I would not advise it as an attorney. 148 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but but he did it, and it's out there, 149 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: and here's what he wants everyham to know though, because 150 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 2: the media doesn't want people to know this. 151 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: Jordan Neely was not just threatening. 152 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: To murder people. He was threatened to murder people, including 153 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: black and brown people on that subway car. Meaning this 154 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: was about fellow human beings, right, This is about people 155 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 2: of all different races. 156 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: This is what he's saying. 157 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: Also, one of the individuals who helped hold you Nearly 158 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: down was a black guy. 159 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, so the narrative of racism. 160 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: Here becomes really complicated. Daniel Penny steps in to stop 161 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 2: a guy from threatening to kill people, including black and 162 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: brown people, and the guy who helps him hold Jordan 163 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: Neely down is. 164 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: A black guy. 165 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 2: So the racism narrative you have to work really hard 166 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 2: to try to find this as a racist incident, which 167 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 2: is the whole basis for Bragg's prosecution here, and. 168 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 4: We all know it. 169 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, and Buck, the data actually reflects And again this 170 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 5: goes to the data. This is the factual evidence. And 171 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 5: I bet in the back of Daniel Neely's ahead, even 172 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 5: if he doesn't acknowledge it, police are actually less likely 173 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 5: to use violence against black defendants as a percentage of 174 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 5: violent acts. It's a big Harvard study they did. 175 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 2: They're like, why the left hates that and they try 176 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: to undermine that study all the time now, But it 177 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 2: was a big study. 178 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, Why would that be the case. 179 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 5: It's because there are I think probably a lot of 180 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 5: police listening to us right now that know that they're 181 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 5: going to be held if you're a white guy to 182 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 5: a different standard if you use violence against a black person, 183 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 5: and you would be if you use violence against a 184 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 5: white person. Because again, Buck, it's not only that Daniel 185 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 5: Penny is getting charged because he's a white guy who 186 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 5: choked a black guy. It's that if he had choked 187 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 5: a white guy out, this wouldn't be a story either, right. 188 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 5: The only way this becomes a story is if a 189 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 5: white guy does this to a black guy. 190 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: Black guy does it to a black guy. 191 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 5: Nobody pays attention in black on black violence happens so 192 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 5: frequently the media never covers it. White crazy guy Daniel 193 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 5: Penny puts him in a choke, Coldeny dies one billion percent, Buck, 194 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 5: this never becomes a story either, the only reason I 195 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 5: would love to hear people who are in media try 196 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 5: to justify this, because Buck, The argument they would make is, well, 197 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 5: systemic racism is such an ever present reality that when 198 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 5: we see acts like these, we much call them out 199 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 5: and cover them. 200 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: But to your point, it actually is a wildly outlier. 201 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 5: Incident that isn't actually representative of danger that exists in 202 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 5: New York City or any city in America. Black people, 203 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 5: by and large have almost nothing to fear from white 204 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 5: people if you just look at it on a data basis, 205 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 5: and by the way, almost none of us have anything 206 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 5: at all to fear from police either. I always like 207 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 5: to use this stat but because it blows people's minds. 208 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 5: You know, if you're an unarmed person in America today, 209 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 5: regardless of your race, but including if you're black, White, Asian, 210 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 5: or Hispanic, you are more likely to be killed by 211 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 5: a bee, wasp, or hornet than you are by a 212 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 5: police officer. That blows people's minds. Unarmed, right, because you're 213 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 5: not then trying to typically create any sort of issue 214 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,319 Speaker 5: with a weapon. Would you ever be afraid to walk 215 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 5: outside of your house because you were afraid that you 216 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 5: were going to get stung by be and die? 217 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: Of course not. We fear things that aren't real because 218 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: of the media. 219 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: I remember after Ferguson, Don Lemon, formerly of CNN, said that, 220 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: and he was crying when he said this. That some 221 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: nights when he goes homes, he called when he goes home, 222 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 2: he calls his mom just to let her know that 223 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: he got home safe because he's so scared about police 224 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 2: violence against him. 225 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: Don Lemon said that who lives in a I don't know. 226 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 2: I would just put it out there, probably a four 227 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 2: or five million dollar apartment on the Upper West Side 228 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: of Manhattan. I think he's okay walking home. I don't 229 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 2: think the cops are coming for but you know, but this. 230 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: Is this is what it is. 231 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 2: It's all I'm a victim. 232 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: I'm a victim. It's so scary the cops. A victim 233 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: of the cops. 234 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, there are lunatics running around the city, stabbing people, 235 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 2: raping people, doing crazy stuff. But it's the cops and 236 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 2: it's white racism that's the problem. That's another good one here. 237 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: Don Lemon connected in some ways one of ESPN's highest 238 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 2: paid announcers. It's a guy named Mark Jones. He's lost 239 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 2: his mind. He's super racist. In the wake of the 240 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: George Floyd incident, Buck he went on social media and 241 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: he said he would no longer accept a police escort 242 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: on college campuses when he called a game because he 243 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: didn't know when a police officer would decide to kill him. 244 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. 245 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 2: I mean, this is a This is a maniacal really 246 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: like a faith based belief that people have bought into 247 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 2: this cult like ideology of the threat of white racism 248 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: killing them or the threat of police killing them. This 249 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 2: is completely insane. Think about that, buck these guys. 250 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 5: For people out there who are sports fans, you get 251 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 5: a police escort so you don't have to sit in 252 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 5: traffic so you can go into the stadium and call 253 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 5: the game, and then you get a police escort when 254 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 5: you leave so you can get to the airport faster. 255 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: He said he wouldn't. I don't know if he's accepting 256 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: it or not. 257 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 5: He said he wouldn't accept the police escort anymore because 258 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 5: he was afraid that a police officer would kill him. 259 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 5: What in the press box while you're calling a game, 260 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 5: when they're helping to dodge you through all the traffic 261 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 5: so you can manage to get in and out of 262 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 5: the stadium. 263 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 2: That stays out there, clear book, We'll take police escorts anytime, 264 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: anytime you. 265 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: Want to help us out, go for it. 266 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 5: Anybody wants to give me a police escort anywhere, at 267 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 5: any time, I will gladly accept it. 268 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: I won't talk to you about mantis X for a moment. 269 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 2: Mantis X is the name of a training tool every 270 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: gun owner should know about, let alone be using.

Appreciate all 290 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 5: of you hanging out with us. You know, nobody has 291 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 5: seemed to come up with an answer to the question 292 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 5: we talked about at the end of the first hour, Buck, 293 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 5: which is why would Trump keep these documents? And that 294 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 5: to me, there's no suggestion of motive at all in 295 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 5: the indictment. And I would encourage all of you, even 296 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 5: if you're you know, died in the wool Trump people, 297 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 5: or you're died in the wall supporting somebody else, you 298 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 5: need to read the actual documents yourself, as opposed to 299 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 5: just letting people talk about it. I always used to say, uh, 300 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 5: the best thing to do is go to the one 301 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 5: of my contracts. Professor said, well, in any contract dispute, 302 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 5: there are three important things the contract, contract to contract. 303 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 5: In the indictment, there are three important things the indictment, 304 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 5: the indictment, the indictment. What's outside of the indictment sometimes 305 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 5: can be significant, however, and here Buck, there's no suggestion 306 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 5: of motive, and that's what comes back to me again 307 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 5: and again is based on what is what is in 308 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 5: the indictment, and based on even what we've heard from 309 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 5: Trump himself other than these were my documents, I could 310 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 5: keep them, right, which Trump has basically said, I could 311 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 5: declassify them. I had the right to maintain possession of them. 312 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 5: He hasn't actually put forward an argument for why he 313 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 5: kept them, and I think that is a challenge, not 314 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 5: necessarily on a legal front, because there are lots of 315 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 5: different legal angles that you can attack, but just on 316 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 5: a okay, what is all this drama for, and on 317 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 5: a risk analysis basis, when you know that they are 318 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 5: coming after you with everything they've got, you don't want 319 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 5: to make their case easier than you need to. And 320 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 5: a lot of the details in this indict mad Buck 321 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 5: are ham handed and frankly reckless, and it actually allowed 322 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 5: Trump to be a target. He made their job easier. 323 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 5: And I wonder on some level whether we're going to 324 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 5: get any explanation of why do these documents matter? Because 325 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 5: he gave a lot of them back, and if he 326 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 5: had just turned them over, nobody would have even known 327 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 5: Buck right. I mean, if he had just turned them 328 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 5: over in response to the first subpoena, this is not 329 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 5: a story. It's vanished, and Trump is still the leading 330 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 5: candidate to be the nominee in twenty. 331 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: Four You want to put it out there, Why don't we? 332 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: Why don't we? 333 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 2: You know, hey, anyone, why why do you think Trump 334 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 2: plays saying Trump held on to them? And and we're 335 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 2: asking the question why eight under two eight two two 336 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 2: eight eight two. I mean, one of the big challenges 337 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 2: I have, Clay, is I wish I could see these 338 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: documents because I could look at them and know right 339 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 2: away this is classified, classified or this is malarkey classified, 340 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: and right now we're just taking, like the Washington Post 341 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 2: and the Deep States word for it.

Governor Rond de Santis, as you all know, 363 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: running for president in second place. Poles still show him 364 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 2: trailing considerably behind Donald Trump. But Floridians certainly are very 365 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 2: fond of their governor as governor doing a great job. 366 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 2: But he's spending a lot more time now than he 367 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 2: had previously on the campaign trail. I thought this was 368 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 2: an interesting moment, he says, Well, you may have seen 369 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: in the headlines they're changing the name of Fort Bragg, 370 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: which for anybody from the special operations community in particular, 371 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 2: but just in general on the army side. I mean 372 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 2: Fort Bragg is you know, I mean clay. It's used 373 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 2: as shorthand in movies and stuff, people like, oh, man, 374 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: that guy got his training at Fort Bragg, and everyone goes, oh, 375 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 2: because that's where that's where special you know, there's a 376 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 2: lot of special operators come out out of that base. 377 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 2: And they're changing the name I think the Fort Liberty, 378 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 2: which is, you know, a thing that they're doing based 379 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 2: on what exactly why are they doing this? And DeSantis 380 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 2: has pledged to restore the name of Fort Bragg in Fayetteville, 381 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 2: North Carolina, play it. 382 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 6: I also look forward to as president restoring the name 383 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 6: of Fort Bragg to our great military base and Fayetteville, 384 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 6: North Carolina, and thank the people. 385 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 4: That have served there and they're proud of their service there. 386 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 4: And it's an iconic name and an iconic base, and 387 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 4: we're not gonna let political correctness run amuck in North Carolina. 388 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 2: This is something that you and I've talked about before, 389 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 2: and I think it's it's important to stay on this 390 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: issue and understand it's one that the left feels very 391 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 2: strongly about because they understand the importance of it to 392 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 2: the psychology and the cohesion of the country. And that 393 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 2: is the destruction of our sense of our own history 394 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 2: as a tree and the ability to celebrate aspects of 395 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 2: historical individuals without necessarily endorsing everything. I mean, if you 396 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 2: have to endorse everything that anyone did a couple of 397 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 2: hundred years ago, I got news for you. Nobody was 398 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 2: great on you know, the transgenderism in the eighteenth century, 399 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: like nobody was. Nobody was woke enough, right, I mean, 400 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 2: and I know it's it seems ridiculous, but it keeps, 401 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 2: you know, the the parameters keep expanding. Just over the weekend, 402 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: they removed in Albany City Hall Clay they removed General 403 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 2: Philip Schuyler from there's a statue of Skyler and that 404 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 2: was removed. Skyler was a revolutionary war this is not 405 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 2: civil war stuff. Revolutionary war general also the father of 406 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 2: Alexander Hamilton's wife. I believe, right, Am I getting that right? 407 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: Yeah? I think so. 408 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 2: And but some folks will recall that slavery wasn't abolished 409 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 2: in New York and Hill circa. It's not exactly I 410 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 2: think was eighteen twenty something like that. I think that 411 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 2: it was around then eighteen twenty, eighteen twenty three, maybe 412 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 2: in New York. But they're getting rid of a Revolutionary 413 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 2: War general who was heroic during the revolution, Clay, because 414 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: he was a I believe on a small scale, but 415 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: he had owned or his family had owned slaves. And 416 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 2: you sit here and you say, well, then what are 417 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 2: we gonna do with Washington, d C. What are we 418 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 2: going to do with Jefferson? Like what do we do 419 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 2: with all of these historical figures? And then who are 420 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: we allowed to celebrate? 421 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,479 Speaker 1: Who is a who? Or who even in history are 422 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: we allowed to focus on? That's acceptable? 423 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 5: This is one where Trump was one hundred percent right. 424 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 5: And this is why I have always opposed tearing down statues, 425 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 5: removing historical record as it pertains to anything in American history, 426 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 5: because it was never going to just stop with Confederate soldiers. 427 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 5: Everybody remembers Charlottesville, where they embedded the idea that Trump 428 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 5: had called neo nazis very fine people. No, you go 429 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 5: look at the transcript. What Trump said is there's many 430 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 5: very fine people who believe that we should maintain statues 431 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 5: to people like Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, and 432 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 5: Braxton Bragg, although the Civil War history nerded me would 433 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 5: point out that Bragg was among the worst Confederate generals. 434 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 5: Just fi wow, I'm just wowing for the nerds, for 435 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 5: the nerds out there, is what I'm talking about. Bragg 436 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 5: was a very poor Confederate general. So if you were 437 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 5: going to I mean, he did get one of the 438 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 5: coolest bases named after him. So this is kind of ironic, 439 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 5: is it. I mean, like Fort Bragg Fort Bragg, as 440 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 5: everyone knows who trains there, the unit trains there. I 441 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 5: believe we're adding Chattanooga, Tennessee on August first, as a 442 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 5: new member of the Clay and Buck family, and I 443 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 5: have spent a lot of time in Chattanooga. In fact, 444 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 5: one of the big failures of Braxton Bragg Buck and 445 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 5: this is again I'm nerding out here, he did not 446 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 5: set up the Confederate battle line at the military crest 447 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 5: surrounding Chattanooga. So if you go, like, if you're a 448 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 5: real Civil War nerd, and you ever go to, like, say, 449 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 5: the Battle of Lookout Mountain, you will see that the 450 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 5: Union troops under Grant were able to take those commanding 451 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 5: heights that looked out over the Tennessee River because Bragg, 452 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 5: who was supposedly this brilliant engineer, did not put the 453 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 5: breastworks at the military crest and so left his line 454 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 5: susceptible to being overrun, and also was an awful manager 455 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 5: and all these other different things. But as soon as 456 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 5: you set the precedent, and in my book that's coming 457 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 5: out on August eighth, I write about this. You know, 458 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 5: this is something that I think very few people are 459 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 5: aware of. Do you know Martin Luther King used to 460 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 5: do an advice column in Ebony magazine. Buck A lot 461 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 5: of people are like I would have no idea this 462 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 5: ever happened. Martin Luther King Junior was an advice columnist 463 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 5: in Ebony Magazine back in the day, and he took 464 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 5: a question for that magazine from a individual who wrote 465 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 5: in asking about the fact that he had attraction. 466 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: To men and he knew it was wrong. 467 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 5: And Martin Luther King's advice to him was, and this 468 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 5: is in the late nineteen fifties, I believe Martin Luther 469 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 5: King's advice to him was, being gay is a mental illness. 470 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 5: You should go see a psychiatrist and get yourself fixed 471 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 5: for that. Right, So does that mean that doesn't sound 472 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 5: veryreo to me, doesn't sound very woke at all. Does 473 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 5: that mean because Martin Luther King, by modern standards on 474 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 5: homosexuality was completely unacceptable right? No political candidate could have 475 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 5: that opinion right now and get elected to high office. 476 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 5: In fact, if somebody came out and said that, it 477 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 5: would be a massive scandal, especially during Pride Month of 478 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 5: all times. Does that mean we should go have to 479 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 5: take down the Martin Luther King Junior Memorial because his 480 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 5: opinions on gay related issues in the nineteen fifties and 481 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 5: nineteen sixties are very different than what we believe now. 482 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: Of course, the answer is no. 483 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 5: But if you apply that standard of constantly judging the 484 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 5: past history by our woke standards, then we have to 485 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,959 Speaker 5: basically take down every statue of memorial that's ever existed. 486 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 2: You have to rename the United States capital, and Yale 487 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 2: University has to change its name, which it will never 488 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 2: do because the entire value of that institution is in 489 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 2: the name recognition, because a lie who Yale was a 490 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 2: slave trader. But the point here is you have such 491 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 2: a small and you know, I think we can all 492 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 2: understand at some level too when you're celebrating. Make this 493 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 2: a lot easier, right, Steve Jobs said nothing to with slavery. Obviously, 494 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 2: Steve Jobs amazing visionary and marketing guy for Apple, and 495 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 2: we're all sitting around using Apple devices. Apparently not a 496 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 2: nice guy at all, not like a nice individual, right, 497 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 2: really kind of cutthroat and a lot anyway. I'm just 498 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: bring it up because what do we care about with 499 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 2: regardless Steve Jobs, Apple and the building of the company 500 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 2: and the products that we all use. You're not endorsing 501 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 2: his treatment of you know, everyone that he was friends 502 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 2: with in his life or anything else. You know, the 503 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 2: same thing we talked about this with artists. What are 504 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 2: you celebrating when you say Van Goh was a great painter. 505 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 2: You're not saying Van go is somebody who you should 506 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 2: really look to for psychological stability advice, Like that's probably 507 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 2: a bad idea, right, So, or you know, Picasso was 508 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 2: somebody you should look to for the way that he 509 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 2: treats women. He treated women horribly. Point being, if we 510 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 2: can't separate out the greatness of an accomplishment that an 511 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 2: individual achieved from Oh, everything this person did is amazing. 512 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: Who was left? 513 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 3: You know? 514 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: I mean Churchill was great. 515 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 2: You know, Churchill was an alcoholic and had some really 516 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: bad positions on different stuff. I hate to break it 517 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 2: to people, but you know he was wrong on some 518 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: stuff too. So i'd also ask people think about this. 519 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 5: Many people in this social justice community are convinced that 520 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 5: they would have been on the vanguard of Let's just 521 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 5: use as an example because we're talking about Civil War. 522 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 5: So you're telling me that, you who have the opinion 523 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 5: that every big business, every big entity in America has today, 524 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 5: you are the opposite of a revolutionary right. 525 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 1: You are a follower. 526 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 5: You are getting in line behind all the powerful people. 527 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 5: You're telling me that if in eighteen sixty one you 528 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 5: had been growing up in Georgia, you would have fought 529 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 5: for the North. 530 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: If you had been growing up. 531 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 5: In Mississippi in eighteen sixty two, you would have fought 532 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 5: for the North. 533 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: No. 534 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 5: Look, this is the part that like no one will 535 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 5: actually go through. People fought almost exclusively for the state 536 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 5: that they happened to be born in. They did what 537 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 5: everybody else around them did. It takes real bravery to 538 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 5: stand up to the masses, which is the opposite of 539 00:28:55,280 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 5: what these mobs do today. The airline attendance and school teachers, 540 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 5: who were, you know, screaming at at children to mask 541 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 5: up and telling everybody that they were murdering grandmaf they 542 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 5: didn't do. Yeah, they would have been the prison guards 543 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 5: of the Gulag everybody, and that wasn't that long ago. 544 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 5: They would have been the one saying, I don't care 545 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 5: that you're innocent. We're gonna put you out to work 546 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 5: and you're gonna go die in the freezing cold Siberian wasteland. 547 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 5: They're not heroes, okay, there's nothing heroic about going along 548 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 5: with what the mob demands, which is also known as 549 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 5: being a democrat saying that's well said from here for yeah, 550 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 5: thank you do what I can.

I can be honest 590 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 5: with you and say I've never watched the Tony Awards. 591 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 5: But one of the presenters came out and called Ron 592 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 5: DeSantis a grand Dragon.

He's the head 599 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 5: of the KKK, the Grand Wizard of the KKA. What 600 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 5: with all of his things he's doing, like winning election 601 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 5: by nineteen points, allowing people to not wear masks, making 602 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 5: everyone safer because crime is not very high at all. 603 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 5: In fact, fifty year lows I believe. Oh, he's like 604 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 5: just like the Grand Wizard of the KKK. 605 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 2: It's also so interesting because you know, there's what people 606 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 2: say and there's what people do, and you should always 607 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 2: pay much more attention to what they do. Is there 608 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 2: some huge outflow of people leaving Florida because it's so awful? 609 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 5: No. 610 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 2: In fact, the number show us that Florida received the 611 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 2: largest in state migrant you know, or into the state 612 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 2: migration of any state in America over the last few years. 613 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: Why is that? 614 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 2: Because things in Florida have been going so well. 615 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: We all know this. 616 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 2: And as we've noted, Donald Trump used to be a 617 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 2: New York City resident. He is now a Florida resident, 618 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 2: as are all three I'm sorry, Well, he has more 619 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 2: than three adult children. I don't know about the fourth one, 620 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 2: but three of his adult children are also formerly New 621 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 2: York residents now Florida residents. Because things are going really 622 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 2: well in this state, and people like zero income tax, 623 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 2: and they like cops being supported, and they like regulation 624 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 2: that makes sense and deregulation that's you know, we've good 625 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: on the whole list. 626 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: But what is the race? 627 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: What is racist? This is the question I think so interesting. 628 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 2: There's been some stuff about wokeness and lgbt Q I 629 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: A Plus and Disney. What is the racist thing that 630 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 2: ron is that that they pushed back on teaching UH 631 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 2: American Point Studies curriculum and now they have an they 632 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 2: have approved the Black Studies curriculum. They're just not teaching 633 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 2: c RT in it. And that now makes you a 634 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: member of the KKK. It's just it's so stupid. But 635 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 2: you have to push back on this stuff because people 636 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 2: believe what they hear. Unfortunately, and the slanders, the people 637 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 2: who slander, whether it's Governor Santis or any Republican for 638 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 2: that matter, they feel justified no matter how much of 639 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 2: a lie it is, because they think that ultimately the 640 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: person deserves it, even if it's a lie. 641 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: I mean yeah. 642 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 5: And also whether you to Trump, oh one hundred percent. 643 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 5: And we'll get some of your calls here momentarily. But 644 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 5: if we had that Tony Ward's woman who said the 645 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 5: Grand Dragon comment, if we had her on and we 646 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 5: actually pushed her and said, okay, you know what is 647 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 5: Ronda Santis doing that to you is worthy of analogizing 648 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 5: him to a member of the KKK. She would crumble instantaneously. 649 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 5: Because so many of these people, Buck, we talked about 650 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 5: narrative over fact earlier. They buy into the narrative. They 651 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 5: have no facts to support their narrative. Yeah, you know, Clay, 652 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 5: We've got a lot of VIP emails in my mind. 653 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 2: Everyone.

Which 659 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 2: I do think is I think is an interesting question. 660 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 2: I think Trump should address this himself at some point. 661 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 2: I mean he will in court, but I you know, 662 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,479 Speaker 2: I think he might as well come out and tell people. 663 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 2: I know that he said that he just believes he 664 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 2: had the right to have them, Okay, but when the 665 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 2: government said no, you don't, and it's being litigated, why 666 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 2: why why was it so important for him to keep them? 667 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 1: It's just a question. 668 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 2: Brad wrote it and said it is so obvious. Okay, 669 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,320 Speaker 2: he has documents that implicate the FBI and DOJ and 670 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 2: Russia Russia collusion. So in addition to him trying to 671 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,439 Speaker 2: put him in jail, he can't run or is hamstrung, 672 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 2: but he also has damning evidence that they can't let 673 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 2: out there. But here's my problem with this, because I've 674 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 2: seen other people say this, Why didn't he just declassify 675 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 2: and make it public? 676 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? 677 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 2: Why not declassify the Russia docs and make it public? 678 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 2: I talked to Trump in the Oval Office ones about 679 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 2: declassifying Russia documents, and I'm gonna tell you, guys know 680 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 2: what he said, Where we're looking through, there's a process, 681 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 2: and you know, we're taking into account sort of what 682 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 2: the intelligence community says needs to be protected. But why 683 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 2: not just release it? 684 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 5: I don't know that's really important that you just said, Buck, 685 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 5: because if your theory and we had a couple of 686 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 5: callers who want to say this is, oh, Trump's keeping 687 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 5: the documents to protect him from the deep state or 688 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 5: whatever you want to say, Okay, the best way to 689 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 5: protect yourself is to release them and make them public. 690 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 5: When he was president, he had absolute authority to declassify anything. 691 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 5: You've talked about this before, sometimes he would even tweet 692 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 5: out a picture. As soon as the president makes something public, 693 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 5: it's no longer declassified. He has that ability right. So, 694 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 5: if you truly have this evidence that you believe clears you, 695 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 5: you want it as widely distributed as possible so that 696 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 5: analogy that argument to me does not add up. 697 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: We'll talk more about it next
