1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 2: All right, second hour Clay and Buck kicks off right now. 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 2: Thanks everybody for being here with us post super Bowl, 5 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 2: and now the political super Bowl continues. 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 3: If you will, a little bit. 7 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 2: Of a dad transition there, Dad joke transition, but you 8 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 2: get what I'm saying. It's an election year, everybody. Big 9 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: things are on the horizon here, and obviously the possibility 10 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 2: of a various vice presidential picks is underway for Trump. 11 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 2: Will a vice president and Kamala Harris takeover for Joe Biden? 12 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 2: That's at the forefront of discussion. I think right now. 13 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 2: She was asked by the Wall Street Journal are you ready? 14 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: She said yes. I bet the Wall Street Journal reporters 15 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: in their heads were all but seriously, are you ready? 16 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: I don't think that they took her word for it, 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: but they did ask her. And now we see that 18 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 2: there's a few things that are playing out before us. 19 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 2: One of them, I think, Clay, there is now a 20 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 2: renewed effort. There are really two renewed efforts to discuss. 21 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: One would be and we'll get to this maybe bottom 22 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: of this hour. This second attempt to impeach majorcas and 23 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 2: remove him from DHS because of his refusal, his refusal 24 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: to enforce the law and to do what he needs 25 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 2: to do. That's underway now with Republicans. I think the 26 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: House will manage this time. I don't am I giving 27 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 2: him too much credit. Maybe I'm giving him too much credit. 28 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 2: But the Speaker of the House came on, he said, look, guys, 29 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: crazy things happened. One member of Congress was in hospital 30 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 2: scrubs and we couldn't have known. And okay, we'll see. 31 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: I will say for Speaker Johnson, who seems like a 32 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: very nice guy, and I've heard secondarily or on secondhand 33 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: from people that he's a very good guy and very 34 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: well intentioned for his role as Speaker for you know, 35 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: for conservatives. But if he if he has another miss 36 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: at at the plate, that's not good. If he strikes 37 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 2: out a second time, that's gonna be a problem. 38 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 3: Not good for him. We'll see. 39 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 2: But speaking of another round play, I think there's also 40 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: a second round here of trying to position things so 41 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 2: that it's no big deal. And what they're saying now 42 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 2: is there were cheap shots. This is Jamie Raskin, one 43 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: of the you know, there's kind of the the attack 44 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: dogs of the Democrats, right, the people that are the 45 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 2: most aggressive in the media in defense of Biden and 46 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 2: in defense of the Democrat regime. Jamie Raskin, who was 47 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: also at the You'll notice the people that will say 48 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 2: the most mendacious stuff, the people that will just tell 49 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: you the biggest, most bald face lies. Now are so 50 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 2: many of them, the same people that were Russia collusion 51 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: conspiracy nuts right against Trump. So nothing has changed. They 52 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: have no integrity or protect so they'll keep doing what 53 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 2: they've been doing. Here's Jamie Raskin. This is cutting on that. 54 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: I want to Clay's take on whether this will work. 55 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 3: Play it. 56 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 4: After nine to eleven, our NATO allies under Article five 57 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 4: came to our dest sense. 58 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: It's a collective, dessense organization. 59 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,679 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, no, no, no, no, no no no, I'm sorry, 60 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 2: I'm looking at it. 61 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,519 Speaker 3: I'm looking at old sheet. But put this aside for 62 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 3: a second. 63 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 2: All we need from a special prosecutor Clay is a decision. 64 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 3: He didn't need to take cheap shots. 65 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 2: It's from the transcript, and you could take the same 66 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 2: type of shots at Trump, who recently confused a woman 67 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: that he sexually attacked and lied about with one of 68 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 2: his wives. The repositioning is underway, and they're saying, hey, 69 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 2: we're doing everything that we can now to show everybody 70 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: that Joe Biden's he still got it. Will it work? 71 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 3: No? No, because ultimately. 72 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: It's advocating, and I think getting people to change their 73 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: minds is one of the most difficult things to do 74 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: at all in the world of politics, because getting anybody 75 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: out there get your wife to change her mind about 76 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: your best guy friend that she doesn't trust. 77 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 3: Do you know how hard that is? 78 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: Every guy out there listening to us right now has 79 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: a friend that your wife or your girlfriend hates. They 80 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: have decided they don't trust him, They have decided that 81 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: he is a scumback. 82 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 3: Every single one of you knows about this. 83 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you're like, I don't think 84 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: that's true, you might be the guy, right You might 85 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: be the guy that everybody that the wives and the 86 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: girlfriend hates. How hard is it to get people to 87 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: change their mind, get your wife or your girlfriend to 88 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: change your mind about whoever that friend? 89 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 3: Is super difficult. Right. 90 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: Once people make a decision, and and by the way, 91 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: a decision that can't get better. 92 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 3: Unlike that. 93 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Maybe your friend that that you love but you know, 94 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: get you in trouble. Sometimes maybe he gets married and 95 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: he has kids, and you know, ten years later things 96 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: can be different. Biden's issue, Buck, is not gonna get better. 97 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: We've talked about Fetterman one in Pennsylvania. He couldn't speak 98 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: at the debates. He's now gotten a lot better. He's 99 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: fifty three years old. He's not back to one hundred percent, 100 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: but he's recovered. 101 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: You had to have a drink now with a prominent democrat, 102 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom and his fancy chardonnay and his buttoned unbuttoned shirts. 103 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: He's now way behind hooded sweatshirt Fetterman in the clay sweepstakes. 104 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 2: Let's be honest, Buck, I meant to mention this to you. 105 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 2: I haven't even told you this. 106 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: Do you know who rolled into a Vegas nightclub on 107 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: Friday in the wind that I was in. 108 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: I mean we saw Condoleeza Riis go past us if 109 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 2: you remember, But anyway, no who Gavin Newsom? 110 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 5: Why? 111 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: Old Well I swear you needed to take a selfie 112 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: with him. Well I didn't see him. 113 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: I left, And there's so many security details and everything 114 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: else I saw. He walked into excess nightclub. I am 115 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 1: told with his security detail. If I had known that 116 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: he was there, we could have potentially had a wine 117 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: together in the Vegas nightclub. But the fact that Gavin 118 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: Newsom went into a nightclub I thought was with the 119 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: security detail California governor, very very ridiculous. 120 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 3: But Fetterman has gotten better, and we have a clip here. 121 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 3: This is what they're going to try. 122 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 1: Okay, they are going to try to sell to the 123 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: American public. Remember we said eighty six percent of the 124 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: American public in a new ABC News poll thinks that 125 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: Biden is too old and is not able to do 126 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: the job of the president, not physically or mentally capable. 127 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: They're now going to try to tell you that you 128 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: and me and almost the entire nation that our eyes 129 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: are to us. 130 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 3: Listen to this. 131 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: This is cut too buck all the montage of people 132 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: out there saying this report was totally unfair, it was gratuitous. 133 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: This is what they're gonna try. I think it's going 134 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: to fail. But here's their pitch. 135 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 6: Gratuitous and inappropriate criticisms of the president, way too many 136 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 6: gratuitous remarks. The gratuitous remarks, the gratuitous comments. They're saying 137 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 6: it's gratuitous. We certainly agree that it's gratuitous. The gratuitous 138 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 6: comments in the report and the gratuitous comments in the 139 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 6: report are troubling. 140 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 5: It was gratuitous, a hominem, gratuitous attacks. 141 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 3: Politically motivated, gratuitous. 142 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 6: The report was gratuitous, gratuitous, gratuitous, gratuitous, gratuitous, gratuitous, gratuitous, gratuitous. 143 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 7: This seems like the height of interference. It's gratuitous, gratuitous, 144 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 7: superfluous statements, gratuitous, unnecessary and inaccurate personal remarks. 145 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: Look, that's been I am dizzy from it. I mean, 146 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: it isn't that remarkable. But this is exactly what we're saying, 147 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 2: which is the weekend that wasn't spent on you know, 148 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: football talk on the airwaves. A lot of it was 149 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 2: just trying to find a way to make that's a 150 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: partisan hitchob. They're trying to reframe the issue because they 151 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 2: know that there's a break, right, there was a break 152 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 2: in the coverage and conversation and really more importantly, the 153 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: attention span issue over this right, because you had That's 154 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 2: why they dropped it. When they did. That's why they're 155 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: taking the positioning that they are. And here, Clay, we 156 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: have it's cut nine this do you have? 157 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 3: Do you want to call? 158 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say to you, I'm curious you 159 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: and I we like vocabulary. We like words or kind 160 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: of a little bit nerds sometimes in the words we use. 161 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: I don't think most Americans really even. I mean, that 162 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: was clearly orchestrated, right. Somebody sent out the talking points 163 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: and they said, you need to say this is gratuitous. 164 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you're not a vocabulary person, 165 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: I was gonna look it up uncalled for lacking good 166 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: He's an unwarranted To me, using the word gratuitous is 167 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: even not great communication. 168 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 2: But let me play on that word for a second. 169 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 2: What they really should be saying, or rather what this 170 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 2: is showing us is ingratitude to this Special Council because 171 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: they are ungrateful for what the Special Council did, which 172 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 2: was come up with to stretch the law beyond its 173 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 2: actual text, to come up with some justification for them 174 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: for not charging or not finding that Joe Biden should 175 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 2: be charged, absent whether he could be as president. You 176 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 2: see what I mean they're not only lying about the 177 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 2: intent of the Special Council. The Special Counsel did them 178 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: a favor, effectively by saying he could have said, yeah, look, 179 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 2: Biden broke the law. 180 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 3: It's clear, it's reckless. He's president. 181 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: So I leave it to people to, you know, to 182 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 2: the Congress to whether this needs to be acted upon. 183 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 2: But he should be charged for a crime. Instead, he says, guys, 184 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 2: he's too old, he didn't mean it. We can't charge him. 185 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 2: And then Democrats come out and say that's gratuitous. It 186 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: is in fact ungrateful. And you know, here's I mentioned. 187 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 2: This is cut twenty one. I'm sorry twenty one. Mike, 188 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: the Biden campaign co chair, totally defiance play twenty one. 189 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 8: This is what the Washington Post is saying. 190 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 3: Quote. 191 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,719 Speaker 8: Top Biden donors were fielding calls and text messages from 192 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 8: anxious Democrats asking if other Democrats still had time to 193 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 8: jump into the presidential race, When is Gavin getting in 194 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 8: or how about Whittmer? Her Shapiro buzzed around Democratic circles 195 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 8: over the last twenty four hours. How do you respond 196 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 8: to Democrats who say they want to see a change 197 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 8: at the. 198 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 2: Top of the ticket. 199 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 5: I'm in the process of doing it right now and 200 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 5: demonstrating that the president's accomplishment have really been second to none, 201 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 5: and Joe Biden's going to get up every day. The 202 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 5: one thing Joe Biden is never going to do is 203 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 5: count on this. He is never ever going to quit. 204 00:10:58,760 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 3: Never ever. 205 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: Now, I Clay, I know that there's nothing else that 206 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 2: they can say, but they're trying to make this case 207 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: to people that Biden's not moving an inch. 208 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 3: You know why, Clay, that report was gratuitous. I the 209 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 3: use of the word gratuitous. 210 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: If you ever question how organized, and that's a great 211 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: clip that we played, how organized the talking points are. 212 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: It reminds me back in middle school and high school, 213 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: we had this thing. 214 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 3: Called the vocabulary workshop. 215 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 1: Some of you may have done it, where your goal 216 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: was to expand your vocabulary and you always had to 217 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: use the words in a sentence. Do you remember that 218 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: when you were in school and the idea is, okay, 219 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: you're going to learn new words. It's not just enough 220 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: to memorize these definitions to know them. You have to 221 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: be able to use the word in a sentence. Some 222 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: of you probably wrote some of the worst things. She says, 223 00:11:55,679 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: I hope to see you not sporadically. Spatic means so 224 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: you can, and then you'd have a friend who would, 225 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: you know, use one of those words occasionally in speech, 226 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: and it would just sound so awkward. This feels to 227 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: me like just another example of the Biden administration being 228 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: tone deaf, because again, gratuitous is not a word. I 229 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: don't think that he's used by certainly not that many 230 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: swing voters in America. And to what you said, Buck, 231 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: if anything, Robert hur was far too lenient to Joe Biden, 232 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: because what we're not talking about when he said he's 233 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: like too dodding basically in an old man, he's giving 234 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: him a pass on being charged with a felony because 235 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: he's too old and incompetent, and he thinks a jury 236 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: would find him sympathetic. He's too old, he's too incompetent, 237 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: he's not mentally all there. Therefore it would make it 238 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: hard for a jury to convict him. To me, the 239 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: fact that he's giving Biden a pass distracts and detracts 240 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: from any argument. 241 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 3: That you could make that he's being unfair. 242 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: Look, Buck, if you or I got investigated for a 243 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: crime and then they found out that there was evidence 244 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: that we had committed a crime, that we had. 245 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 3: Engaged in willful violation of the law. 246 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: And then the prosecutor said something like, but I think 247 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 1: the jury would find these guys to be too likable, 248 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: and therefore it would be impossible for us to get 249 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: a conviction. I would be thinking to myself, Boy, did 250 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: I get a free pass there? If I'm getting audited 251 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: by the IRS right now? Buck, Remember I told everybody 252 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: never audited my entire life. Now they're auditing me. If 253 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: the IRS agent investigating me right now. If he came 254 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: back and he said, we think Glay Travis owes more 255 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: money in taxes, but I'll be damned. He is such 256 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: a likable guy. There's no way any jury in America 257 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: would convict him. Would your reaction be, Man, that investigator 258 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: really through the book at Clay Travis. 259 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 3: That was gratuitous. Or would you be. 260 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: Thinking, man, he just let Clay Travis get away with 261 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: a crime based on what he thinks. 262 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 3: The jury's gonna do. 263 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 2: It's so perfect, isn't it that this is how the 264 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 2: Democrats operate. No good deed goes unpassed from their perspective, 265 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 2: right they've been bailed out. The report could have and 266 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 2: should have been far more scathing than it was. And 267 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 2: yet they use what the They use the alibi as 268 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: the as the political Oh my gosh, look what they 269 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 2: did to our guy, right, the alibi that bails him 270 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 2: out effectively. They don't like that that alibi has implications, 271 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: so they claim that that itself is a political attack. 272 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 3: It's almost like you can't. 273 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: Trust them, and they're remorseless in their dishonesty. 274 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: For decades, young people out there haven't been properly taught 275 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: about our American heritage, our history. The result so many 276 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: young Americans rejecting the principles of our freedoms. They don't 277 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: find our founding fathers to be noteworry noteworthy, Many outright 278 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: reject the notion of patriotism. Some would even go so 279 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: far as to say they're not proud of being Americans. 280 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: We've neglected this problem far too long, but Hillsdale College hasn't. 281 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: Hillsdale has been leading the way and promoting civic education 282 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: without a bias, and by showcasing how uniquely special our 283 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: freedoms are and how they came to be, they treasure 284 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 1: the enduring values of our constitution and teach those in 285 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: a number of ways. You'll hear one of those ways 286 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: on this radio station this year with their Hillsdale Constitution Minutes. 287 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: These are short, clear lessons on the principles of liberty. 288 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: You can hear them on demand as well at Clayandbuck 289 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: for Hillsdale dot Com. That's Clayandbuck for Hillsdale dot Com. 290 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 3: Don't miss the day of the Clay Travis and Buck 291 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 3: Sexton Show. 292 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. 293 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 3: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. 294 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: Got a theory for you, Buck that maybe we can 295 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: dive into here in the next segment. What if Kamala Harris, 296 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: because I'm reading this Wall Street Journal exclusive where she 297 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: says she's ready to serve Remember Kamala called Joe Biden 298 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden a racist during her own campaign. What if 299 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: she decided to knife his electoral prospects in the back 300 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: to try to advance her own position in twenty twenty 301 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: four to make her the nominee. We've never really seen 302 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: a situation like this. Uh, Alberto, by the way, Winner Garden, Florida. 303 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 3: Uh, you want to weigh in on what's really gratuitous? 304 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 9: How are you yes, the gratuitous which is the word 305 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 9: of the date for the Democrat Party visogularry quiz is 306 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 9: what his grotuit is, was mister hers comparison of the 307 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 9: Biden case to the Trump case, because I don't think 308 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 9: that was his charge. This charge was did mister Biden 309 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 9: break the law or not? 310 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 3: Period? 311 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 9: And you know, but not to compare the Trump case 312 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 9: and the Biden case. That was another break that he 313 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 9: gave Biden. 314 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, yeah, I agree with the basic analysis here 315 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 2: that even putting these on the same plane. First of all, 316 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 2: Biden was never president, so there's no argument about presidential records. 317 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 2: Biden was a senator. He did this when he was 318 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 2: a senator too. They didn't talk about that as much 319 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 2: in the media coverage of this. He's been doing this forever. 320 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: He basically thinks the rules don't apply to him. That's 321 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 2: not what happened with Trump. Trump said I'm the president. 322 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 2: The rules for the president are different. 323 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: And that he declassified this before that's very important.

No surprise, 348 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 2: Mayorcas does not agree with the assessment that he has 349 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 2: done anything at all that has led. 350 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 3: To the worst border I think quite clearly. 351 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 2: In the history of the country. And he rejects this. 352 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 2: He was on Meet the Press. This is where it right, 353 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 2: This is how it goes. People know this already, But 354 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 2: just to review, the regime sends its spokespersons to go 355 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 2: on regime media, Meet the Press and the other whatever 356 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: you know, Washington Week and review whatever these things are. 357 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 2: Now I don't want to really watch them. I just 358 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: watched the clips of the most of the most of 359 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 2: the time, but so that they set the talking points 360 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 2: for the week for the of regime media to parrot, right, 361 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 2: to just go repeat what's been said on that Sunday, 362 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 2: Mayorcus himself appeared on Meet the Press about the border crisis. 363 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,679 Speaker 2: This has cut seventeen listen to it. 364 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 8: No doubt there is gridlock on Congress. But do you 365 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 8: bear responsibility for what is happening at the border with 366 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 8: the president himself has called a crisis. 367 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 3: It certainly is a crisis. 368 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 7: And well, we don't bear responsibility for a broken system, 369 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 7: and we're doing a tremendous amount within that broken system. 370 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 7: But fundamentally, fundamentally, Congress is the only one who can 371 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 7: fix it. 372 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 2: That is not true. And I think that it's indicative 373 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: of what we're up against that they're going to just 374 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 2: pretend like this has to be remembered. They're going to 375 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 2: pretend clay as though they didn't come into office and 376 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 2: mayorcus was part of this and decide we're going to 377 00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: make decisions that will change the trajectory of the decisions 378 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: that will undo what Trump did to make the border secure. 379 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 2: They were bragging about it. Then because they came into office, 380 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 2: they fool of the enough people. Joe Biden's gonna be 381 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 2: unit or he's going to be a moderate, right, They 382 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 2: got away with that big lie. And then they come 383 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 2: into office and what happens majorcas is a part of 384 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 2: getting rid of her made in Mexico, expanding asylum, expanding 385 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 2: all the different cheat codes if you will, to skip 386 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 2: the immigration line into the country, trying to end deportations 387 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 2: for one hundred days. This is day one with Biden 388 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 2: and Claydon right now. It's just a propaganda fight for 389 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 2: them to try to tell people in this country who 390 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 2: were paying attention what you think you know, you don't 391 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 2: know they're just lying to everybody. 392 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 1: The Axios lead story this Monday, and I love reading 393 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: I get an email. 394 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 3: I would encourage you guys to sign up for it. 395 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: I think Axios does a good job of kind of 396 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: letting you know what the agenda of the day is 397 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: going to be, oftentimes for the Biden White House Axeos. 398 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: I believe Buck was the first outlet that broke the 399 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: news that the Special Council report was coming out soon, 400 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: and that kind of gave you an indication of, Hey, 401 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: get yourself primed. They had a big story their Monday, 402 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: and it's oftentimes Monday where they really set the agenda. 403 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 3: This is what they want to talk about. This is 404 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 3: the story of the week. 405 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: Had a big story Buck first couple of weekly Update 406 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 1: was about how angry Biden had been getting at his 407 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: staff over their failure. 408 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 3: To address the situation at the border. 409 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: And I read that this morning as I was doing 410 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: show prep and getting ready, and I thought to myself, hmm, 411 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: this is interesting because what they're trying to do is 412 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: just throw a lot of different stories and somewhat distorted 413 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: facts at the American public to try to confuse them 414 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: about what's going on at the b and to try 415 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: to take the blame away from Biden. I even think Buck, 416 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: this is why I don't support the Mayorcus impeachment. If 417 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 1: you impeachment, by the way, I don't think Mayorcas is 418 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: doing a good job, but he's doing a bad job 419 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: because of the president he serves. I don't like the 420 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: idea of going after individual cabinet members when they suck 421 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: at their job because they serve at the pleasure of 422 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: the President of the United States. If Joe Biden wanted 423 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: to give the American public Mayorcus's head on a platter, 424 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 1: he could demand that he resign. He could fire Mayorcus. 425 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: And so this idea that Mayorcus should be impeached for 426 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: what's going on at the border. If you believe that 427 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: the border is a disaster, it's Joe Biden's fault. If 428 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: you want to impea each somebody for the border being 429 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: wide open, which I'm not opposed to at all, impeach 430 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: the guy who's actually in charge. Letting Mayorcus be the 431 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: fall guy for the border. Buck seems to me like 432 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: a really great strategy for Biden. Fire Mayorcus in a 433 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: few months, say you know what, he's done a crappy job. 434 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put in somebody new that politically doesn't feel 435 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: like a bad strategy to me because it makes Mayorcus 436 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: the fall guy. I'm concerned that Republicans are playing into 437 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: the trap that Biden's not responsible himself, and that's what 438 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: they're trying to sell. 439 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:41,239 Speaker 2: And doesn't that tie perfectly into what the Democrats just 440 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 2: tried in the Senate, which was bring Republicans into the mess, 441 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 2: say oh, we're fixing it together, and then people get 442 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: confused to go, wait a second, So this was a 443 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 2: bipartisan thing, or this was that both sides did this 444 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,959 Speaker 2: by giving Look, I get it, people want accountability for Mayorcus. 445 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: Mayorcus just executing the will of the White House, Biden 446 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 2: and the advisors around him who actually run the country 447 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 2: and pull the strings on the puppet. Getting rid of 448 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: may Orcus will do at the border, in my view, 449 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 2: nothing And if anybody wants to debate that lines are open, 450 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 2: please would love to hear how you think that's not 451 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: the case. I can assure you Joe Biden is not 452 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 2: going to put somebody in that role. He's the president, 453 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: he gets to pick the DHS director. I mean you know, 454 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 2: with Senate approval, not going to put somebody in there 455 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 2: who is suddenly going to say, you know what, everything 456 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 2: Trump was doing was right, let's do those things. It's 457 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 2: just not going to happen, so it won't change the policies. 458 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 2: And to your point, the politics of this are a 459 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 2: little more complicated than just oh, we. 460 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 3: Got a guy. 461 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you get a guy when it's really 462 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: Biden's fault. I thought this way all along. The check 463 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 2: on this, the reset on this is take Biden away 464 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 2: from power, take the Democrats out of running the White House. 465 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 2: That's how how this changes. 466 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: And by the way, I also think if Biden continues 467 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: to argue that he needs Congress to act to solve 468 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 1: the situation at the border, which is untrue, an easy 469 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: response that I'm not hearing enough Republicans make is if 470 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: Congress has to act, why didn't Democrats act when they 471 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: had complete control of Congress in twenty twenty one and 472 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. And the majority that Republicans have now 473 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: in the House is tiny in twenty twenty three, and 474 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: now that we move into twenty twenty four. But if 475 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 1: you really have to have Congressional action, you had complete 476 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: control of the Senate and the House for all of 477 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: twenty one and twenty two, and you didn't do anything 478 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: on the border. So why do you suddenly need Republicans 479 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: to be involved to do something on the border. Now 480 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: the question I don't think there's an easy answer to. 481 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: But again, don't mistake what's going on here. They're trying 482 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: to blame shift even inside of the own administration. That 483 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: Actio story, Buck, it talked about how angry Biden was 484 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: as staff for not being able to solve it. It's 485 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: all designed to shift the blame from Biden. Remember, Buck, 486 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 1: he's minus thirty five on the border right now. Of 487 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: all the issues, it's the one sinking him the most. 488 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 2: Well, this also, you know, you gotta be careful with 489 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 2: the jiu jitsu, if you will, perhaps the ike do 490 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 2: for the Stevensie golfans out there, Yes, of going after 491 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 2: Biden as so incompetent that the advisors run everything. You'll 492 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 2: notice there's a little bit baked into this narrative of 493 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: what you just said, Biden's upset at the team. Oh 494 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: maybe this isn't for you listening. This is for people 495 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 2: that are on the fence, people that maybe it turns 496 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 2: into Biden's learned some lessons here. Some of the holdovers 497 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 2: from that Obama administration didn't get it done for him. 498 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 2: But Joe wants to take care of America now and 499 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 2: have a team in there who's going to get it 500 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: done the right way. Platitudes, garbage, does it work? They 501 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: might think it works. 502 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: Remember you'll know that they're getting desperate if suddenly they 503 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: fire Mayorcus and they start to argue he just wasn't 504 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: getting the job done. Joe knows how important the border is. 505 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: Mayorcus is the fall guy. And I just wonder how 506 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: much are Republicans shifting the blame from Biden to Mayorcus 507 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: by trying to impeach the guy who doesn't even make 508 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: decisions and serves at the will of the President of 509 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: the United States. Mayorcus is not responsible for the border. Ultimately, 510 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: Biden is. Don't mistake who the target should be. I 511 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: think we're getting a little bit, a little bit distracted 512 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: going after the wrong guy. 513 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 3: The buck stops with Biden. There you go. Don't forget 514 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 3: that one. 515 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 2: Liberty safe. I have my liberty safe now.

We've got some 566 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: fun stories for you. Remember the There's a big Politico 567 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: report And I want to hit on this because I 568 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: think it's it's important to recognize what stories were being 569 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: told that the Biden white House wants to be told. 570 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: And Politico had a big story saying Biden is furious 571 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: with Merrick Garland and he's not going to keep him 572 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: as his attorney general if he wins reelection. So I 573 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: want to kind of dive into what that's is telling 574 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: us and why Politico would have gotten that scoop and 575 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: why the Biden white House might want that story out 576 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: in the same way that Axios this morning had a 577 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: story out about Biden how furious he is with the 578 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: border and how he screams at his staff and he 579 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: demands that they solve issues and by the way, the 580 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: borders are as Kamala Harris, who just said she's ready 581 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: to be President. We'll talk about that too, which I 582 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: think is very interesting in a Wall Street Journal interview 583 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: that is Kamala Harris. But first I wanted to hit 584 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: this buck. Some of you watched. RFK Junior had a 585 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: campaign commercial that aired during the during the Super Bowl, 586 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,239 Speaker 1: cost around seven million dollars, and it was attempting to 587 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: evoke the memory of John F. Kennedy Junior. It was nostalgic, 588 00:32:53,200 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: it was a throwback. Here is what that sounded like, Kennedy. 589 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 2: Do you want a man for president who's season through 590 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 2: and through, a man who's old and up to old 591 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 2: to do well? 592 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 3: It's up to you, up to you, up to you. Okay. 593 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: So the fallout on this and obviously for those of 594 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: you out there who remember the John F. Kennedy campaign, 595 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: you may well have immediately had that a vote to you. 596 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 4: Uh. 597 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 1: One of the Bobby Shriver sent out this tweet My 598 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: cousin super Bowl ad used our uncle's faces and my mother's. 599 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: She would be appalled by his deadly health care views, 600 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: respect for science, vaccines, and health care equity were in 601 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: her DNA. 602 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 3: This is an attack, right, Okay. 603 00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 2: So one thing anyone who attacks their their blood publicly 604 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 2: is not someone you should listen to because they have 605 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 2: no honor. I'm not gonna say it. I mean unless 606 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 2: the guy is. 607 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 3: Like an axe murder or something and they wanted to. 608 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 2: But you know, over politics, anyone who would throw a 609 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 2: relative under the bus for political purposes has no honor. 610 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 3: So just you can look. 611 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 2: At them and but this is not even how do 612 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 2: I feel about RFK Junior. I think he would help 613 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 2: Joe Biden win the presidency. I'm not even looking at 614 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 2: it that way. But when someone comes out and they say, oh, 615 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,720 Speaker 2: his healthcare views or whatever, what a jerk? 616 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,720 Speaker 1: A look jerk and look Robert Fkennedy Junior responded and said, 617 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry if the advertisement caused pain. The ad was 618 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: created by a super pack without my involvement. God bless you. 619 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: I send apologies. I thought that was super nice of 620 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: RFK Junior. And he said on our show once in 621 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: an interview that in general he tries to refrain from 622 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: saying what his dad would think or his uncle would think, 623 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: because the wor is totally different. But I agree with 624 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,879 Speaker 1: you buck In that you would attack, uh, you would 625 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 1: attack your cousin who's running for president in a public 626 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 1: fashion like that. 627 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 3: I just think is. 628 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 2: Indicative of how family lost their minds, you know, over 629 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 2: the family legacy. 630 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 3: I think it just showed. I think it's gross. I 631 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 3: think it's tacky. 632 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 2: Patricia in Saint Paul, Minnesota, a place full of very 633 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 2: nice people. But Patricia wants to disagree with us on something. 634 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 2: Let us have it, Patricia, what's up? 635 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 4: Well, I can still disagree and be nice. 636 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 3: That's a good point, very Minnesota of you. 637 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, well, I totally disagree with you about my 638 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 4: orca's clay because in the military family, and my husband 639 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 4: was a combat marine in Vietnam. My late husband and 640 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 4: my daughter served in the army for twenty years as 641 00:35:56,080 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 4: a medic. And my orcas took an oath, and anyone 642 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 4: who takes the oath that has taken the oath and 643 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:08,760 Speaker 4: has been complicit in allowing the invasion of our country 644 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:12,399 Speaker 4: by our enemies, which we know that many of them are, 645 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 4: and we are going to pay the price for that soon, 646 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 4: probably with an attack. According to so many people, you know, 647 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 4: he could have quit his job and refuse to obey 648 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 4: an unlawful order from the commander in chief, but no, 649 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 4: he keeps his job, and he doesn't do his job 650 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 4: that every one of them in Congress and in the 651 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:39,240 Speaker 4: Cabinet took an oath to uphold the constitution, and allowing 652 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 4: an invasion of our country violates their constitution. So they 653 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 4: should all be removed from office over this. 654 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 3: The call strong argument Buck. 655 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: My concern is Biden is going to shift the blame 656 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 1: and actually just argue that it's may Orcus's fault. 657 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 3: He's the blame. Bye.
