WEBVTT - God Bless Texas 0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:15.240 You are entering the freedom much When does the shutdown end? 0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:19.720 New unemployment numbers, the debt crisis grows. De Blasio says 0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:24.479 no protests allowed. Where's the praise for Florida. Pritzker, the 0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:27.120 governor of Illinois, says, no going to church until there's 0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:30.720 a vaccine. Biden's hypocrisy is mind blowing and what's fine 0:00:30.720 --> 0:00:34.519 as ever constitutional? That and more coming up? Buck sextonially 0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:39.800 coding the news and disseminating information which actionable intelligence? Or 0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:44.680 make no mistake American break You're a great American again. 0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:50.680 This is the Bucks Sexton Show. Homes CIA analysts. I 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.839 can speak to three hours without a phone call. Try 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:58.560 doing that sometime. If you ask them what can we 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:00.440 do for you? What can we get you what you need? 0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:03.440 To a person, no matter where they work across this country, 0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:06.320 they say the same thing to me, stay home, Please 0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:09.080 do what you can to keep cases down. So my 0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:11.200 question is how many of us who say we love 0:01:11.280 --> 0:01:15.080 them don't really show that love. My message for all 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.760 of you on this day is show the love. Do 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:20.720 what you can to keep cases down. Your choice isn't 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:23.760 just about you. You know now that it affects others, 0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:27.680 including maybe them, And how about our government get them 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:30.840 the damn ppe they need. Have it made in this country. 0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:35.600 Remember Rosie the Riveter. These are desperate times. Everybody says it. 0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:41.360 How about having desperate times call for desperate measures. Really, 0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:45.600 America can't muster making gowns and masks when we made 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:49.240 aircraft carriers and be twenty four bombers. Also, here's something 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:52.040 else that would be really great for them, a new 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:56.720 bill in the House from New York Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney. Now, 0:01:56.720 --> 0:02:01.120 the bill would forgive student debt for all healthcare workers 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.720 who are literally putting their lives on the line to 0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.480 save others. There's precedent for this. We do it for 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:09.760 the military, and we should, oh my so much to 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:12.200 work here there. Welcome to the buck, Sex, and show 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:16.200 everybody appreciate you joining. Well, that's starting to get a 0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:17.960 little sunni or a little warmer here in New York, 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:20.480 thank god. So that'll be helpful hopefully wherever you are 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:23.799 across the country. The weather is improving, when your own lockdown, 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:27.520 when the country is in as difficult as a position 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:31.680 as it is right now, anything that you can look 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:36.080 to as improvement, you got to celebrate a little bit right, 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:38.200 so better whether even the small things you have to 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:43.600 become appreciative of. But here we have not the Governor Cuomo, 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:49.680 but in fact bro Cuomo, the CNN anchor who managed 0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:52.120 to turn his own case of COVID nineteen into a 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.639 piece of performance theater, as we saw when he emerged 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:59.200 from a basement on CNN. And we all know that 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:01.240 he had already left the basement, gone out, and he 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:05.440 was infected with COVID nineteen. And here he is lecturing 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:08.680 the rest of us. If you care about nurses and 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.640 first responders, if you really want to help them, you 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:18.919 know what you'll do. Stay home, stay home. We're now 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:20.720 on two months of staying home. We're gonna get to 0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:23.880 what three months of staying home? Four months of staying home. 0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:27.000 At some point I'm just going to say no, I 0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:30.079 think a lot of other people are already there. In 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.440 New York we have a greater risk than other places 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:35.840 across the country. Not every place, but New York has been, 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:38.800 as we've discussed many times, particularly hard hit by this. 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.760 But now we reach this stage where we understand what 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:45.800 the economic consequences are starting to look like. We haven't 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.680 seen the full scope of it, and I've just got 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:55.400 to say, the hypocrisy from bro Cuomo here is pretty stunning. 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.880 This is someone who just like George Stephanopolis, when he's 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.240 been seen walking around, you know, without his mask on, 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:05.760 and he's lecturing everybody else about how he needs to 0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.840 how they need to be wearing masks. This has become 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:12.040 a big exercise in virtue signaling for people, you know 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:14.920 where where your mask be a good patriot even though 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:18.200 wearing masks outside all the evidence, all the data shows 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:24.520 that it is not in fact necessary. I mean for 0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:26.320 some of you, if you want to do it, that's 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:29.039 up to you, but it's not something that people should 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:33.719 should certainly be legally obligated to do in public. And 0:04:33.800 --> 0:04:37.080 so this is where I've got to say, it's it's 0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:42.200 time for us to start having more frank conversations about 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.400 what we really think is going to happen here. It's 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:48.200 easy to lecture everybody about how just stay home protect 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:52.440 our frontline healthcare workers. What does the rest of society do? 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:57.440 We can leave until when when does lockdown end? What 0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:00.520 are we really going to do if lockdown can continues 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:06.520 for another six, nine, twelve, eighteen months. We were told 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.640 all along that we would not get to this point. 0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:11.320 We were told that this was about flattening the curve, 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:15.920 making sure that hospital capacity was not overwhelmed. Now we're 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.520 being told that it's we have to live in this 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:24.320 really perpetual state of lockdown until the vaccine comes along, 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:28.159 and who knows when that will be, but we'll be 0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:32.520 in this perpetual state of lockdown until the Libs decide 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:35.719 that it's okay. And increasingly, I've got to say it 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:41.160 feels like it's going to be right around mid to 0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:45.240 late November twenty twenty when really we can start talking 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:48.760 about the lockdown's ending. I wish it weren't the case 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:53.080 that it were this blatantly political, but I think we've 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:56.320 gotten there already because you can't make the case there 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:59.920 is no case that we would be wise to continue 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:04.120 doing what we do given what we know about the virus. 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.400 I mean, here is now, there is Bro Cuomo. Do 0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:11.719 we even lift Bro the CNN anchor who has managed 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:15.120 to become more prominent over there than ever based on 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:19.000 a whole bunch of things, including threatening to throw a 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:23.279 substantially smaller weaker man down a flight of stairs in 0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:27.960 a crowded public restaurant in the very fancy vacation resort 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:31.159 of Shelter Island, knowing that he was on video and 0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:33.680 really showing everybody what a tough guy he was. Some 0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:36.800 conservatives thought that that was a good reaction. No, you 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.279 can mouth off to somebody when they mouth off to 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.960 you in public, But to square off against them when 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:43.960 you have your wife and kids nearby and they're clearly 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:46.440 not a physical threat to you, and to threaten to 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:49.240 throw them down a flight of stairs when you're a 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:52.599 public figure, when they've made no physical threat against you, No, 0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:55.400 I think that was crazy, and I'm surprised that that 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:57.880 people look at to each his own, but I'm surprised 0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.000 that people thought that that was a normal response. If 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.799 someone threatens you, yeah, then you then you can threaten 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:05.880 them back. But if someone just calls you a name 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:07.280 you don't like, I could call names I don't like. 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:10.000 All the time people say stupid, mean things to me. 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:12.480 I honestly, I'm gonna fight you. So that's what that's 0:07:12.480 --> 0:07:16.280 what idiots do. I'm gonna fight you spend well, especially 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:18.560 online on Twitter, right, I'm never going to see these people, know, 0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.320 what are we really gonna do? Although I do think 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:25.120 the Bucks exit Alex Jones charity boxing match would probably 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:28.800 be that would probably be quite entertaining for folks. So anyway, 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:33.240 the the problem that we're running into is that they're 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:35.520 moving the goalpost, pretending to like they're not, and there 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.400 there is no exit plan from the lockdown for the libs. 0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:42.800 They've set all these different uh, these these different trip wires, 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:44.960 if you will. They've put in place all of these 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:47.640 benchmarks that we have to hit that they know we're 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.040 not going to hit. So then it just turns into 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:52.800 their discretion because what's gonna happen is they're going to 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:55.200 start to have to waive certain benchmarks and say, Okay, 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:57.080 we're gonna ease this, We're gonna ease that. You know, 0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:03.000 California is moving to open retail stores next week. You know, 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:05.240 there's all this good news, and then there are still 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.840 people that are, oh, no, coronavirus. We can't leave, we 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:10.720 can't go outside. But if you look at what's happening 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:14.520 around the world, there's good news from the perspective of 0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:20.040 opening back up societies. Germany's opening up. Italy is in 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.120 the stages of reopening Spain places that have been hit 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.200 terribly by the disease. Are saying, look, we we got 0:08:26.200 --> 0:08:29.320 to start living life again. So why is it that 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:31.560 America is the country that we're all a second wave 0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:35.559 and we can't go outside. Here's Governor Cuomo in New 0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:40.160 York and unfortunately, New York really is the template. Was 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:42.400 used as the template for how the rest of the 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:47.839 country needs to respond to this virus, which was wrong. 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.160 But New York became the test case that everybody else 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:54.440 had to rely on for their own reactions, and the 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:57.640 data coming out of New York, we extrapolated from that 0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.120 what we should do for the rest the rest of 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:06.160 the country. And it was a mistake. It was a mistake. 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:10.000 Here's the governor of New York State telling us all 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:14.480 reacting to this stunning bit of news. You remember, we're 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:16.840 told a lockdown is saving a lot of lives because 0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:22.120 lockdowns are preventing the spread of disease. Meanwhile, if you 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:24.880 look at charts of different countries, every country has this. 0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:27.240 You know, you see a big spike in cases and 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:30.640 then the drop off in cases. Now some you know, 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:33.880 the numbers are different because the population sizes are different. 0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.960 But whether they've gone with extreme lockdown or minimal lockdown 0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:40.120 like in the case of Sweden, the curve seems to 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:44.480 be pretty much the same. So where is the where's 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.600 the real benefit that we see from these lockdowns? It's 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:52.000 always been assumed that if we do what they say 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:55.199 with this, there'll be far few will is it far 0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:57.560 fewer cases in the long run or far fewer case 0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:00.800 there's week to week and extending it out because this 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:04.040 is the concept that the people that are the lockdown forever. 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:07.280 This is what they don't understand. If you have a 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:12.920 six month long run of this virus, and let's say 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:17.439 you do the bare minimum of mitigation and you end 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.360 up with one hundred thousand dead, which is it looks 0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:22.480 like right now we're heading for one hundred thousand dead 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.839 between now in August. Whatever the models and the models 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:26.960 keep changing. Who knows, the models are wrong all the time. 0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:30.520 But if you're one hundred thousand dead, if we did 0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:35.599 extreme mitigation for let's say eighteen months, So if we 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.440 kept the lockdown going for eighteen months and you still 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:42.120 end up with one hundred thousand dead, have you really 0:10:42.160 --> 0:10:45.080 limited the infections or are you just slowing the speed 0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:48.480 with which people are becoming infected? Now? It's tough to 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:49.960 answer that. They would say, well, no, you're at one 0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.079 hundred thousand and not two hundred thousand dead over the 0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:55.920 same period of time. But is effectively everybody going to 0:10:55.920 --> 0:10:58.800 get Is everyone going to get infected with this over time, 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:02.319 because then the mortality rate is very likely to be 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:04.600 whatever whatever it is for the disease is what it's 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:07.520 going to be over the overall population. Are we heading 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:13.120 for actual slow speed herd immunity or do we think 0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:16.720 that somehow we're going to just stop the disease because 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:21.200 the initial program it was fifteen days to slow the spread, 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:24.359 not to stop the spread. Now we've got people suggesting 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:27.640 that we can stop the spread if only we stay home. 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:31.960 This is where Governor Cuomo has got a problem though, 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:36.120 because people are staying home and they're still getting infected. 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:42.600 Play clip three. This is a surprise. Overwhelmingly the people 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:46.679 were at home where there's been a lot of speculation 0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:49.400 about this. A lot of people again had opinions, a 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:53.680 lot of people have been arguing where they come from 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:56.200 and where where we should be focusing. But if you notice, 0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.680 eighteen percent of the people came from nursing homes. Less 0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:02.520 than one percent came from jail or prison, two percent 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:07.120 came from the homeless population, two percent from other congregate facilities, 0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:10.360 but sixty six percent of the people were at home, 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:17.960 which is shocking to us disproportionately older, but by the way, 0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:24.880 older starts at fifty one years old. Two thirds of 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:28.240 people that are hospitalized with COVID, and the most recent, 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:32.760 the most recent weekly data they have two thirds of 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:38.280 them were on lockdown or staying home and they're still 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:44.120 getting infected. So either you look at this and you 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:49.440 say there are only a few possibilities here. You have 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:53.280 people who are in the very limited travel they do, 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:58.160 going to the grocery store, going to the pharmacy, still 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:00.320 even doing that once or twice a week, getting acted 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.280 in numbers that are large enough to be concerning. We're 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:07.560 still seeing a steady stream of infections here in New York, 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:11.520 and then across the country you have more and more 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:15.440 people who are still getting infected. But we're home. The 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.200 cell phone data has showed that over ninety percent of 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.880 people have been adhering to the lockdown based on the 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:24.920 GPS monitoring that money it's monitoring. Talking about the master 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:26.880 valence state, we're already had a master valence state. It's 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.600 just until somebody figures out how to really harness it 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.760 and really use it. Well, they're called social media companies, buck, 0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:38.079 But this is where we are. We still, even with lockdown, 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:42.520 have three hundred thousand This is from doctor Scott got Leave, 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:47.840 three hundred thousand new cases a day. So all these 0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:50.760 people are saying we're saving all these lives through the lockdown. 0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:54.240 I mean we're going three hundred thousand cases a day. 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:56.640 How many cases day will we get if we went 0:13:56.679 --> 0:14:00.599 to work but still try to limit mask gatherings and 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.320 took some of these, Oh, it will be a million 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:05.839 a day. It will be ten million a day. And 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:08.920 even with the lockdown. I mean, this is the people 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:11.800 part of the false choice that's set up here. And 0:14:11.880 --> 0:14:13.640 I know this is all kind of it gets so 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:17.120 conceptual and what's going on, But our society is at risk. 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:20.440 I mean, our economy is dying. It is dying right now. 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:24.400 I have the unemployment numbers and we'll talk about that 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:28.480 at a moment. But the people who don't want to 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:32.080 reopen keep saying that people will die if we reopen, 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:35.920 and you said this, well, people are dying right now, 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:41.520 even with the lockdown, and we're having this enormous societal 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:44.560 not just economic, I mean, our whole society is bearing 0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:51.120 this tremendous cost. And people won't soon forget the images 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.760 of parents arrested in front of their children for going 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.720 to play in a playground and law enforcement officers going 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:01.200 along with it. My friend, I know that you do 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:04.760 not judge the whole community of hundreds of thousands of 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:06.880 law enforcement officers across the country of the actions of 0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:10.440 any one, two, or a few dozen. But perception is 0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:14.080 a different thing from reality here, and we've had a 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:18.680 few very bad looks of over zealous, over aggressive law 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:21.600 enforcement with regard to the social distancing and the lockdown stuff. 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:23.680 There's going to be a cost to that as well. 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:27.000 There's a lot that's going on here that is damaging 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:31.640 to our society, damaging to our ability to feel good 0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:36.000 about who's in charge of this country at the state, local, 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:40.080 and at the national level. And can we trust the bureaucracy? 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.640 The answers, no, you cannot trust the bureaucracy, And they've 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:46.080 lied to us and they've been wrong, and now they're 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:50.200 getting more as their theories fall apart, and as the 0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:54.760 data is increasingly not supportive of their positions, they're lying 0:15:54.800 --> 0:16:00.440 to us, and then they're getting more aggressive, right so 0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.520 we see that they've been wrong, and then they say, 0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.880 oh no, we weren't wrong, and the models don't really 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:09.120 matter anymore. They keep shifting and changing. Meanwhile, people are 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:12.280 getting infected across the country. The economy is in free fall, 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:14.840 and they act like we've gotten we've done some huge 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:17.640 public service by locking down most of the United States. 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:20.720 Europe is opening up. Are they a bunch of murderers? 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:22.800 Are they a bunch of barbarians who don't care about 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:28.040 grandma dying? They're opening up? Sweden never really closed, but 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.080 if you want to, if you want to start having people, 0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:33.560 you know, open up their flower stores and times and 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:36.760 time for Mother's Day, you know, clothing stores open up, 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:41.000 furniture stores, allow people to start going into offices providing 0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:44.320 different services, you know. And I'm not saying don't wear 0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.760 masks inside. I'm not saying don't wash your hands, and 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:50.920 we shouldn't protect the vulnerable. But what option are these 0:16:50.920 --> 0:16:53.760 people that think that it's it's so brave and bold 0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:57.440 to go on TV and say stay home, how long? 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:02.520 How much longer? What are we trying to achieve. Give 0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:07.040 me the benchmarks about test and trace are absurd, they're insane. 0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:10.639 But it's all ultimately about another thing. And you know 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:14.120 what it is. Who's going to get blamed. There's going 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.239 to be death from COVID nineteen for the rest of 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:20.720 this year. It's one percent guaranteed. So now the discussion 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:22.640 about reopening is really about who's going to get blamed 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:27.440 for those deaths, not about how we stop them. You're 0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:31.240 in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:38.399 Call these people warriors, and I'm actually calling now, as 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:40.920 you know, John, the nation warriors. You have to be warriors. 0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:46.480 We can't keep our country close down for years and 0:17:46.760 --> 0:17:50.439 we have to do something. And hopefully that won't be 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.560 the case, but it could very well be the case, 0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:55.440 and you won't be lucked in a house. And some 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:59.600 people should stay if you're over a certain age. I mean, 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:03.040 you see that right elderly people or especially elderly people 0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:08.080 with the problem where they have a problem. It attacks 0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:12.600 these people viciously, and I think they will be staying back, 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:15.800 and we're strongly recommending that they do that. We're saying 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:19.880 over sixty, and especially over sixty if you have diabetes 0:18:20.000 --> 0:18:25.320 or heart problems or whatever problem you might so, but 0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:27.240 we have to get our country open again. And you 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:29.600 see it. Look, you cover it. People want to go back. 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:31.600 You're gonna have a problem if you don't do it. 0:18:32.080 --> 0:18:34.440 If you don't do it, you've got a very help. 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:37.720 We've got to go back. Trump is right. I hope 0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:41.679 that he's learned from listening to people who do not 0:18:41.800 --> 0:18:45.359 have not just the best interests of you know, the 0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:48.960 White House, but the American people do not have the 0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:51.000 best interest of the American people at heart. The left 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:54.800 views this all as an opportunity. Unfortunately, thanks for listening 0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:58.240 to The bus Essence Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on 0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:01.399 Apple podcast if the iHeart Radio app or wherever you 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:06.639 get your podcasts evicted at this time through no fault 0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:11.680 of their own. You know, my grandfather used to say, 0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:16.600 if you have your health, we can figure out anything else. 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:20.199 We can fix anything else. If it's about money, we 0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:22.399 can we'll figure it out. But you have to have 0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:26.240 your health. That's why public health versus the economy, I 0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:29.720 don't see the trade off. Is it as easy as 0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:33.359 we can just ensure that everybody has their health. There 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.320 are some very important. It's it's very important for us 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:40.040 to understand. It's very important. False notions at the heart 0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:44.840 of the lockdown consensus. They can't say people from getting 0:19:44.840 --> 0:19:47.719 this disease. They've said that, oh, we got to do 0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:50.479 this because he'd say, oh, well, they're they're mitigating it. 0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:53.000 It's meaning so few so far fewer people are getting this. 0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:57.719 Really are fewer people getting it in places like New 0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:00.640 York because a quarter of us have already been exposed 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:03.919 and have antibodies, and a lot of the most vulnerable people. Remember, 0:20:04.119 --> 0:20:07.520 your vulnerability to the disease isn't just a question of 0:20:07.520 --> 0:20:10.760 how badly your body reacts to it and how much 0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:13.440 it overwhelms your immune system. It's also the initial infection. 0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:18.399 So a lot of people who are particularly susceptible, clearly 0:20:18.440 --> 0:20:20.760 in New York and some other major urban areas, have 0:20:20.760 --> 0:20:23.800 already gotten the disease. So at some point, I mean, 0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:26.320 we talk about her immunity and nobody ever really thinks 0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:29.040 this through true. Herd immunity means there are so many 0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:33.280 people with antibodies to the disease that there are not 0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:38.840 enough vectors of spread that even those without antibodies are 0:20:38.880 --> 0:20:42.200 at real risk of getting it, and for certain diseases, 0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:46.080 for something like like measles, for example, which is hyper contagious. 0:20:46.119 --> 0:20:48.080 I mean, I don't really understand the mechanism of why, 0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:50.920 but measles. It's like, if you're this is why they've 0:20:50.960 --> 0:20:53.560 even had these These people have done these parties for kids, 0:20:53.640 --> 0:20:57.200 which I do not recommend. I don't have kids. I 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.160 don anything about this stuff. But they'll have a party 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:00.679 where one kid with measle shows up and all these 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:02.680 other kids and they all get measles, right, I mean, 0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:04.480 this is what this is what ends. And it's like, 0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:06.520 if you show up, you're you're pretty much getting measles. 0:21:08.560 --> 0:21:12.280 The spread of the disease is much more difficult if 0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:14.520 there are people who have immunity all around you. Even 0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:17.040 if you don't have immunity, that's the basics of herd immunity. 0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:19.760 And for some diseases it's it's more like eighty percent 0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:22.800 four measles, I think it's over ninety ninety five percent 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:24.840 if you're going to have true heart. That's why the 0:21:24.920 --> 0:21:27.560 lowering of And I'm not getting into vaccination debates, and 0:21:27.640 --> 0:21:29.760 don't start sending me all that stuff. People I love you, 0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:34.440 don't start sending me all your vac stuff. But that's 0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:37.040 why when their vaccination level from measles drops down, there's 0:21:37.080 --> 0:21:39.400 all that people get all concerned. Just from a herd 0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:42.439 immunity standpoint. They're saying, you're you're creating greaters. And this 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:45.000 is why whooping cough and measles in recent years, they've 0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:49.119 been outbreaks in places. Okay, and now we look at 0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:52.159 what the lockdown consensus is promising us, which is that 0:21:52.240 --> 0:21:55.040 they're able to protect our health. But are they really 0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:58.960 we're doing exactly what they're telling us to do. We've 0:21:58.960 --> 0:22:02.359 been doing it for two months. How protected are we? 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:06.080 How much has it really worked in New York? Or 0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:10.080 had the virus already spread far and wide and the 0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:12.560 most vulnerable And we can't protect nursing homes. We've been 0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:16.720 talking about that. The authorities made, not just bet made 0:22:16.720 --> 0:22:20.720 the absolute wrong decisions about how to protect our seniors 0:22:20.720 --> 0:22:24.040 and nursing homes. So they keep taking this position of 0:22:24.040 --> 0:22:26.000 the moral high ground like they're you know, if it 0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:30.080 saves just one life, they'll protect every life. And then 0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:33.000 we think about it, well, but you're not protecting every life, 0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:36.479 not even close. We're losing a lot of lives and 0:22:36.760 --> 0:22:43.119 suffering massive economic consequences and losing our constitutional rights, and honestly, 0:22:43.160 --> 0:22:46.600 at some point, what is the purpose? Why are people 0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:47.920 are going to start to say, why am I getting 0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:50.639 up and doing this every day? And this is what 0:22:50.640 --> 0:22:52.520 we're going to see? A spike and drug abuse and 0:22:52.560 --> 0:22:55.640 suicide and overdose and all these things. We're still locked 0:22:55.640 --> 0:22:58.359 at our homeless what forever? And I hate this stuff 0:22:58.359 --> 0:23:02.040 when people say we're never return We're never returning to normal. 0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:04.840 You know what, shut up if you're saying that we're 0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:08.240 going to return to normal. All right, we had fifty 0:23:08.359 --> 0:23:11.520 million people die from Spanish influence in nineteen eighteen. You know, 0:23:11.640 --> 0:23:14.720 nineteen eighteen was followed by the Roaring twenties. We're going 0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:18.320 to return to normal. I hope the cost is nowhere 0:23:18.400 --> 0:23:20.280 near and I don't believe it will what it was 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:23.359 in nineteen eighteen. But you know, if we can survive that, 0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:26.000 we are going to get through this and return to 0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:28.320 a place where people can gather and people can do things, 0:23:28.520 --> 0:23:31.760 and you know, maybe, just maybe there there'll be a 0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:34.840 few benefits of this. You know, the silver linings of 0:23:34.840 --> 0:23:38.960 it will be pretty substantial, like, for example, the lunacy 0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:42.639 within the scientific community that they need to focus billions 0:23:42.640 --> 0:23:45.200 and billions of dollars and have all these conferences about 0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:50.240 climate change because by the IPCC projection, the inter Governmental 0:23:50.280 --> 0:23:53.240 Panel on Climate Change at the UN, by their projection, 0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:58.080 we might be two degrees celsius warmer in one hundred years, 0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.600 and that will destroy the planet. Let's worry about not 0:24:00.640 --> 0:24:05.399 having a pandemic disease destroy modern civilization like now and 0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:07.880 for the next ten years. How about that that would 0:24:07.880 --> 0:24:11.199 be a better usage of time. You know that, you 0:24:11.200 --> 0:24:13.280 who've been listening to the show, I've made this point 0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:16.000 many times before. There are real this is people know 0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:20.960 I've been bringing up antibiotic resistant bacteria and really frightening 0:24:21.000 --> 0:24:23.560 stuff that's out there. I have mentioned pandemics way before 0:24:23.600 --> 0:24:26.000 this actually happened as what I'm scared about or what 0:24:26.320 --> 0:24:29.600 keeps me up at night, anybody with a passing familiar 0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:31.640 And you know, how do I know that stuff. I'm 0:24:31.680 --> 0:24:34.840 not a scientist history. I know more history than a 0:24:34.920 --> 0:24:37.920 vast majority of scientists that I can tell you because 0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:40.240 I love history and read it all the time. And 0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.320 if you understand history, you know what the real risks are, 0:24:43.560 --> 0:24:45.919 and you know what the real risks are not and 0:24:45.960 --> 0:24:47.760 the people that are claiming we're all going to run 0:24:47.760 --> 0:24:49.679 out of food or that the world is going to 0:24:49.720 --> 0:24:52.720 melt because of co Two. They've been wrong in the past, 0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:54.639 there will be wrong in the future, and there are 0:24:54.680 --> 0:24:57.320 reasons why they continue to allow their brains to make 0:24:57.359 --> 0:24:59.760 these same errors and try to push all the rest 0:24:59.800 --> 0:25:02.840 of us us into believing them as well. But back 0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:07.320 to the governor here health, we should protect human life. 0:25:08.160 --> 0:25:10.560 I don't care if a person is old. You know, 0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:14.879 I'm old by your definition. I still think I have 0:25:14.960 --> 0:25:18.560 a value. Right My mother's old, you know, she's the 0:25:18.560 --> 0:25:23.840 most precious person to me. So protect every life and 0:25:23.960 --> 0:25:28.359 I'm not going to trade off public health, and We'll 0:25:28.400 --> 0:25:31.760 figure out the dollars and we'll figure out the economic impact. 0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:37.720 You know what Venezuela looks like. You see the news 0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:40.720 footage of it. I'm sure sometimes Venezuela is a is 0:25:40.760 --> 0:25:45.679 an impoverished socialist narco state and is run by narco traffickers. 0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:48.600 This is what you know. We have all these people 0:25:48.800 --> 0:25:51.840 who don't even understand how poor the country is. Because 0:25:52.760 --> 0:25:55.640 the reason that Maduro and his thugs are even able 0:25:55.680 --> 0:25:58.000 to feed themselves and pay the army and stay in 0:25:58.080 --> 0:26:00.760 charge is because they're selling cocaine and heroin on the 0:26:00.760 --> 0:26:04.800 global market. Yeah, that's right. You know you don't see 0:26:04.800 --> 0:26:06.240 a lot of that, and I do want to spend 0:26:06.240 --> 0:26:08.160 some time. I want to deep dive into it. So 0:26:08.560 --> 0:26:11.120 and Producer Mark remind me on this one, and maybe 0:26:11.119 --> 0:26:14.040 we'll get one of our many spec ops friends to join. 0:26:14.359 --> 0:26:15.920 You know, it actually be great if we can have. 0:26:16.520 --> 0:26:19.199 Maybe we'll reach out to Jack Carr, whose book is 0:26:19.240 --> 0:26:21.520 doing so well right now, Savage Son, which I'm listen. 0:26:21.560 --> 0:26:24.480 I am listening to the audiobook of it, and it's 0:26:24.520 --> 0:26:26.960 what I do when I'm doing chores and things like that. 0:26:27.040 --> 0:26:29.320 When I say chores, that doesn't sound manly, right, is there, 0:26:29.600 --> 0:26:31.840 Proucer Mark? Is there a more manly word for chores 0:26:32.840 --> 0:26:37.600 household tasks? There we go doing my household tasks, thank you. 0:26:37.880 --> 0:26:39.560 I mean it does sound a bit like I'm a butler. 0:26:39.640 --> 0:26:43.280 Oh hello, I'm doing my household tasks. But it's better 0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:45.480 than chores. Choice sounds like, oh, I'm just gonna go 0:26:45.560 --> 0:26:48.840 do my chores now. But yeah, I listened to Savage Son. 0:26:48.920 --> 0:26:52.760 It's it's excellent so far. I'm a few chapters in. Well, 0:26:52.800 --> 0:26:54.720 maybe we'll have him or we have so many people 0:26:54.760 --> 0:26:56.320 from the spec OPS side who could talk to us 0:26:56.320 --> 0:26:58.679 just about I mean, how how crazy it is that 0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:01.280 this guy is. I've just seen the beginnings of it. 0:27:01.320 --> 0:27:02.720 I'm going to dig into more. I'm gonna talk to 0:27:02.720 --> 0:27:04.600 some friends in the community too, to see what's going 0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:07.119 on here by this guy who is SF who wanted 0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:10.200 to have a coup, basically be a one man coup 0:27:10.200 --> 0:27:12.600 against Maduro. I mean, I joke around with friends of 0:27:12.600 --> 0:27:14.560 mine all the time that, you know, when I had 0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:17.440 enough agency and spec Ops guys all drinking together, you know, hey, 0:27:17.800 --> 0:27:20.800 you've got enough enough brain power and firepower here to 0:27:21.359 --> 0:27:24.399 overthrow a small country. But we're kidding. It seems like 0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:27.040 maybe this guy didn't think that that people were kidding 0:27:27.040 --> 0:27:29.520 when they talk like that. So we'll we'll get into 0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:31.560 that tomorrow. I think that's a fascinating situation. But but 0:27:31.600 --> 0:27:35.840 I bring up Venezuela because the way that Cuomo talks 0:27:35.840 --> 0:27:38.480 about things, if you have your health, you have everything, well, 0:27:38.600 --> 0:27:40.080 you know, it's really hard to stay healthy when you 0:27:40.119 --> 0:27:43.439 don't have an economy. It's really hard to stay healthy. 0:27:43.680 --> 0:27:46.440 Think of all of the people out there right now 0:27:46.480 --> 0:27:49.280 who don't have COVID nineteen but have serious health problems. 0:27:50.400 --> 0:27:53.800 And what happens when they can't get routine medical care. 0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:57.920 What happens when they have to wait for chemo, for surgeries, 0:27:58.720 --> 0:28:01.560 for all kinds of heart procedures, which is happening all 0:28:01.560 --> 0:28:04.719 over the country. What happens to your health when you 0:28:04.720 --> 0:28:07.399 are told to stay indoors, not see your loved ones, 0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:13.480 not enjoy life. Okay, watching Netflix and eating ice cream 0:28:13.920 --> 0:28:16.680 is fun for a week or two, it has now 0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:20.879 become sad. We don't want to do this anymore. Well, 0:28:20.920 --> 0:28:22.320 we want to do it sometimes, but we don't want 0:28:22.359 --> 0:28:23.800 to do it all the time, all right, which is 0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:27.199 basically where we are right now. You cannot have a 0:28:27.240 --> 0:28:30.080 healthy society if you do not have a functioning society. 0:28:30.720 --> 0:28:33.360 Ask any prisoner. Take a look at anybody who's ever 0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:36.199 been sent to federal prison. And I mean, it's a 0:28:36.240 --> 0:28:40.760 stark reminder of really how brutal prison life really is 0:28:41.360 --> 0:28:43.640 psychologically and physically. And I don't just mean because of 0:28:43.640 --> 0:28:47.480 the possibility, the high probability of being assaulted and physically 0:28:48.080 --> 0:28:50.760 abused inside a prison, which says a lot about our 0:28:51.160 --> 0:28:54.240 state and instability to protect people that are in its custody. 0:28:54.440 --> 0:28:57.080 Conversation for another time, but if you find any if 0:28:57.120 --> 0:29:00.520 you look at anybody who's gone into federal prison, they 0:29:00.760 --> 0:29:03.400 look I mean, they usually lose a ton of weight, 0:29:03.880 --> 0:29:07.840 their cheeks become sunken in, their eyes become lighter. I mean, 0:29:07.880 --> 0:29:14.200 they just they look worn and defeated. We're doing this 0:29:14.280 --> 0:29:17.440 to ourselves increasingly as a society. We're making people worn 0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:21.360 out and defeated. Can't see your family, can't see your friends, 0:29:21.560 --> 0:29:24.680 can't do your job, can't really go out. And let's 0:29:24.680 --> 0:29:27.720 be honest about this. Going out with a mask outside 0:29:27.760 --> 0:29:30.640 is better than nothing, but it's not great. It's not great. 0:29:30.720 --> 0:29:32.440 I want to breathe fresh air. I don't want to 0:29:32.480 --> 0:29:35.960 be sucking in some cotton mask made in China, thank 0:29:36.000 --> 0:29:38.960 you very much. That's not what I that's not what 0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:42.520 I want. Oh, but it's fine, and you have to 0:29:42.560 --> 0:29:46.800 do it to protect other people. You know. Cuomo is 0:29:46.880 --> 0:29:51.480 representative of this mentality that we have control over this. 0:29:52.560 --> 0:29:55.720 And this is where you get to a fundamental philosophical 0:29:55.800 --> 0:30:01.880 distinction between the lockdown consensus and the Reopen the reopened movement. 0:30:03.360 --> 0:30:06.480 The lockdown consensus suggests that if only we listen to them, 0:30:06.560 --> 0:30:10.840 lives will be saved, and that's all that matters. The reopen. 0:30:11.120 --> 0:30:15.360 The Reopened movement is saying lives are being lost. You 0:30:15.440 --> 0:30:18.080 can't stop the spread of this disease, not even close. 0:30:18.480 --> 0:30:22.640 And you're destroying everything around our society by doing this lockdown, 0:30:23.880 --> 0:30:27.120 and you've changed what the initial mission is and you 0:30:27.160 --> 0:30:30.320 won't give us an end date. When is enough enough? 0:30:30.400 --> 0:30:33.200 And now we're hearing, oh by about the second the 0:30:33.280 --> 0:30:36.280 second wave. Here's a little fact that if there's going 0:30:36.320 --> 0:30:38.760 to be a second wave, because we start living life 0:30:38.840 --> 0:30:42.320 normally again, there will be a second wave in June, 0:30:42.640 --> 0:30:46.320 or in September or in January. It doesn't matter. It's 0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:50.080 coming if what we're doing isn't enough, meaning if the 0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:52.880 mitigation and if we're not able to get therapeutics and 0:30:52.920 --> 0:30:55.400 get research going that would prevent a second wave. If 0:30:55.400 --> 0:30:57.200 what we're doing isn't enough, it doesn't matter if we 0:30:57.240 --> 0:30:59.560 open next week or next month. The second wave is coming, 0:30:59.600 --> 0:31:03.120 my friend. Now, I don't think it is. I don't 0:31:03.120 --> 0:31:08.560 think it is. Remember this too, what happened to the 0:31:08.600 --> 0:31:14.040 Spanish flu. We didn't beat it, we didn't even understand. 0:31:14.160 --> 0:31:16.880 This will give you a sense of how well this 0:31:16.960 --> 0:31:18.840 is a whole other conversation. But we think that our 0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:22.560 medical Our medical world is so advanced and so sophisticated, 0:31:22.560 --> 0:31:24.800 and really, I mean you go back one hundred years, 0:31:24.800 --> 0:31:27.240 and our knowledge of medicine was primitive, and I mean 0:31:27.280 --> 0:31:30.800 around the whole world, I mean, the smartest doctors, our 0:31:30.880 --> 0:31:37.920 knowledge in nineteen twenty, nineteen eighteen primitive, we were. We 0:31:37.920 --> 0:31:41.880 were at the basics the early phase of medical knowledge. 0:31:42.200 --> 0:31:48.120 And yet the Spanish flu faded away. Now, how did 0:31:48.120 --> 0:31:49.920 that happen? A lot of people got infected, a lot 0:31:49.960 --> 0:31:52.800 of people had immunity, and then the human race just 0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:58.600 moved on. We will get past this, It is a guarantee. 0:31:59.480 --> 0:32:01.560 In the mean time. What we're trying to figure out 0:32:01.680 --> 0:32:05.400 is what kind of countries and societies and lives will 0:32:05.480 --> 0:32:09.040 we be able to lead now and after this thing passes. 0:32:10.080 --> 0:32:13.000 And as I've been telling you, lock yourself up and 0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:16.320 hide from all of this, for everybody, for some people 0:32:16.360 --> 0:32:19.160 that have particularly high vulnerability, but also remember that the 0:32:19.200 --> 0:32:23.880 people that have particularly high vulnerability, If we could focus 0:32:24.040 --> 0:32:27.560 energy and protection measures on those who do feel they're 0:32:27.560 --> 0:32:31.040 at higher risk, wouldn't we then be in a better 0:32:31.040 --> 0:32:34.600 position to make sure that they're living fuller, better, longer, healthier, 0:32:34.640 --> 0:32:39.360 happier lives. Right, if we did have procedures in place 0:32:39.400 --> 0:32:40.680 to make sure that you know, if you're going to 0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:43.000 go to a nursing home to visit your loved ones, 0:32:43.640 --> 0:32:45.320 gosh darn it, you know that we're going to check 0:32:45.320 --> 0:32:47.720 and make sure you're totally clear of the virus, and 0:32:47.800 --> 0:32:49.880 that we have the best measures in place, and that 0:32:49.920 --> 0:32:51.760 you can if you are going to go and see 0:32:51.840 --> 0:32:56.000 your loved relatives there, you can do so without endangering them. 0:32:56.720 --> 0:32:59.800 That kind of focus and those kinds of procedures would 0:32:59.800 --> 0:33:02.240 make things better for everybody. But instead, what we have 0:33:02.360 --> 0:33:05.160 is this slap dash approach of well, you know, we're 0:33:05.160 --> 0:33:07.440 going to protect everybody, but we're going to send New York, 0:33:07.800 --> 0:33:10.400 New York State, it's going to send people with COVID 0:33:10.480 --> 0:33:14.280 nineteen back into the nursing facility and tell us all 0:33:14.280 --> 0:33:17.120 that they care so much about protecting lives. Cost doesn't matter, 0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:22.320 Cost doesn't matter. Huh. Interesting for the State of New 0:33:22.360 --> 0:33:26.080 York to say that, especially given that they were unwilling 0:33:26.160 --> 0:33:30.400 to make additional to take additional precautions and procedures in 0:33:30.520 --> 0:33:32.400 order to protect those who are most vulnerable from this. 0:33:33.400 --> 0:33:36.080 The moral blackmail we all face on this question is 0:33:36.120 --> 0:33:39.480 going to be massive. People don't want to admit that 0:33:39.520 --> 0:33:41.880 they were wrong. They want to have that They have 0:33:41.920 --> 0:33:45.880 this need to believe that the scientific consensus is accurate 0:33:45.920 --> 0:33:49.280 and will protect them. And they also do want to 0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:52.840 use this as the ultimate issue. This from a purely 0:33:52.880 --> 0:33:56.640 political perspective, put aside all the human death and carnage 0:33:56.720 --> 0:33:59.760 and the terrible stuff that's going on here. Just from 0:33:59.800 --> 0:34:05.520 a purely political perspective, this is the biggest opportunity the 0:34:05.560 --> 0:34:10.160 Democrats could have possibly been given by circumstance, an economy 0:34:10.400 --> 0:34:14.600 that is crashing and all this blame that they're trying 0:34:14.640 --> 0:34:17.000 to put on Trump so they can put forward a 0:34:17.120 --> 0:34:20.280 pathetic Cannian. Joe Biden's a pathetic candidate for the presidency. 0:34:20.280 --> 0:34:22.759 We all know that. But they might get it. They 0:34:22.840 --> 0:34:26.840 might get it done because of circumstance, and they're not 0:34:26.920 --> 0:34:32.279 letting that go. You're in the Freedom Hut. This is 0:34:32.320 --> 0:34:40.800 the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Look his astory. There's nothing 0:34:40.840 --> 0:34:45.640 I can do to satisfy the media, the Democrats for 0:34:45.800 --> 0:34:49.160 the fakes. And I understand that we did the greatest 0:34:49.600 --> 0:34:54.239 mobilization and history with the ventilators, and I don't think 0:34:54.280 --> 0:34:56.359 there was a story. What a great job we did. 0:34:56.400 --> 0:35:00.640 Now we're helping Germany, and we're helping many other countries France, 0:35:00.960 --> 0:35:05.920 Spain and in Italy by the way, and Nigeria sending 0:35:06.239 --> 0:35:09.640 two hundred and fifty to Nigeria ventilators and too much 0:35:09.680 --> 0:35:12.840 ago we didn't have any ventilators for ourselves. We were 0:35:12.880 --> 0:35:16.280 the coverage were bare right, there were people have no idea. 0:35:16.920 --> 0:35:20.400 There's not a thing I can do to satisfy the 0:35:20.480 --> 0:35:22.440 fake news, and there's not a thing I can do 0:35:22.520 --> 0:35:27.720 to satisfy democrats. It's true. Just look at the ventilator story. 0:35:28.320 --> 0:35:32.360 And we were we were in a national mass panic 0:35:33.120 --> 0:35:37.160 over our ventilator deficit. And now we're like the ventilator 0:35:37.239 --> 0:35:40.880 superpower of the planet. In fact, we are the ventilator 0:35:40.960 --> 0:35:42.840 superpower of a planet. You don't see a lot of 0:35:42.840 --> 0:35:45.680 stories about that. To you, not much less interest. Trump 0:35:45.800 --> 0:35:48.479 wasn't using the Defense Production Act. I saw so many 0:35:49.000 --> 0:35:51.440 journals making that case. And then he did use the 0:35:51.440 --> 0:35:54.880 Defense Production Act and we got plenty of and he 0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:57.200 already had been negotiating with companies, and we got plenty 0:35:57.239 --> 0:35:59.440 of ventilators. Now more than we need. We're giving him 0:35:59.520 --> 0:36:03.359 other people. Oh but Trump didn't He doesn't act fast enough. 0:36:03.360 --> 0:36:07.160 They say these people are full of it. Thanks for 0:36:07.239 --> 0:36:10.960 listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe 0:36:10.960 --> 0:36:14.239 on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you 0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:17.640 get your podcasts. Are we going to see a fourth 0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:19.560 simulist or do you think you're going to wait and 0:36:19.640 --> 0:36:22.279 see how the first three are working? To people ask me, 0:36:22.320 --> 0:36:24.600 I remind them that we have no money. We have 0:36:24.640 --> 0:36:27.640 no rainy day account, we have no savings account. The 0:36:27.680 --> 0:36:31.439 three trillion that we've already passed out is imaginary money. 0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:34.920 It's being borrowed, basically from China. So the irony is 0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:37.200 we got the virus from China, and now we're going 0:36:37.200 --> 0:36:40.080 to be more dependent by borrowing more money from China. 0:36:40.280 --> 0:36:43.800 The only thing that recovers our economy is opening the economy. 0:36:44.239 --> 0:36:46.800 It's not a lack of money, it's a lack of commerce. 0:36:46.840 --> 0:36:48.919 If you let people have commerce, if you let them trade, 0:36:48.960 --> 0:36:52.600 if you take them out from forcible home arrest, our 0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:54.920 economy will recover. But if you keep everybody out of 0:36:54.920 --> 0:36:57.160 your home arrest and say you cannot practice your business, 0:36:57.440 --> 0:37:00.120 you cannot sell your goods, they will continue to be 0:37:00.160 --> 0:37:03.319 economic calamity. And all these blue state governors who don't 0:37:03.320 --> 0:37:05.960 want to open their state delly are clamoring for federal 0:37:05.960 --> 0:37:08.560 money to bear him out because no state revenues coming in, 0:37:09.120 --> 0:37:12.000 don't have any money. What could be more straightforward than 0:37:12.000 --> 0:37:14.279 what Rand Paul is saying? And yet it feels like 0:37:14.360 --> 0:37:17.120 Rand Paul here is a breath of fresh air. You 0:37:17.200 --> 0:37:21.600 know this. I've always thought that Senator Paul was a 0:37:21.760 --> 0:37:25.120 guy who does does believe what he says. I mean, 0:37:25.160 --> 0:37:29.400 he is a believer in the ideology of limited government 0:37:29.520 --> 0:37:33.120 and and liberty. I'm wouldn't even call I wouldn't even 0:37:33.120 --> 0:37:35.560 call libertarianism because Rand Paul is not really a classic 0:37:35.640 --> 0:37:39.040 libertarian in some ways, but an ideology focused on liberty 0:37:39.040 --> 0:37:41.440 and limited government. I think Rand Paul's a believer. I've 0:37:41.440 --> 0:37:44.840 always had a, you know, not a personal soft spot 0:37:44.840 --> 0:37:47.560 for the guy, but I feel like he's been because 0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:49.440 I mean, I don't know him. I've only interviewed him 0:37:49.440 --> 0:37:51.359 a couple of times, and in interviews, I'm gonna say 0:37:51.400 --> 0:37:54.520 he's kind of like, well, you know, it's sound like 0:37:54.560 --> 0:37:56.680 I'm a little bored, and you know, he's not really that. 0:37:56.760 --> 0:37:58.839 He doesn't really love talking to the media. I get 0:37:58.880 --> 0:38:00.520 the I think he likes TV. Don't think he really 0:38:00.560 --> 0:38:04.160 loves doing radio. But he's he seems to me like 0:38:04.239 --> 0:38:07.640 a principled politician. Now that doesn't that's not the same 0:38:07.640 --> 0:38:09.920 thing as saying someone's perfectly principle. That just means that 0:38:10.000 --> 0:38:14.720 for a politician. I think that rand Paul does stick 0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:17.000 to stick to what he believes for the most part, 0:38:17.120 --> 0:38:19.680 and that's impressive to me, or at least it's noteworthy 0:38:19.760 --> 0:38:23.719 to me. But look, he's saying, we can't. There is 0:38:23.760 --> 0:38:29.120 no restoring the economy without getting back some of the 0:38:29.200 --> 0:38:33.719 reserves areaIn the economy without pulling back on these lockdowns. 0:38:33.800 --> 0:38:35.680 There's no way we can do it. There's nothing that 0:38:35.719 --> 0:38:37.719 we can do that will pull back the law that 0:38:37.760 --> 0:38:40.160 will restore the economy unless we pull back the lockdowns. 0:38:40.760 --> 0:38:42.680 And that then gets me to you know, I had 0:38:42.680 --> 0:38:47.480 a very interesting exchange on Twitter, so it's public, so 0:38:47.560 --> 0:38:50.680 I'm not I'm not, you know, but betraying any kind 0:38:50.680 --> 0:38:53.520 of confidence or anything. I mean, I never would, but 0:38:53.840 --> 0:38:55.839 I had an instrink back and forth with somebody who 0:38:56.040 --> 0:39:00.400 is a He is a guy who founded a very 0:39:00.560 --> 0:39:05.040 large I believe it was a genetic research company. But 0:39:05.239 --> 0:39:10.000 his name is Balaji Srinivazen. And I know about this guy, 0:39:10.080 --> 0:39:12.360 or I think it's actually pronounced Balaji. We have a 0:39:12.440 --> 0:39:15.239 mutual friend told me this guy is really smart, and 0:39:15.320 --> 0:39:19.880 he's a little bit more of a He doesn't believe 0:39:19.920 --> 0:39:22.600 that we should have the country lockdown forever, and he 0:39:22.680 --> 0:39:25.239 understands the pain that people are feeling right now. But 0:39:25.320 --> 0:39:29.319 he's a pretty pro lockdown guy. And so we have 0:39:29.440 --> 0:39:33.880 this exchange. I wanted to share with you about the 0:39:34.000 --> 0:39:37.080 different you know when you deal with someone on this 0:39:37.200 --> 0:39:41.400 issue who it seems is actually smart from the other side. 0:39:41.920 --> 0:39:44.960 Here's kind of how this goes. You had Bethany Mandel, 0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:49.520 who some of you know is a conservative conservative author 0:39:49.600 --> 0:39:53.279 and writer, and she wrote the following, and this is 0:39:53.320 --> 0:39:55.239 an exchange that all happened. I thought this is worth sharing. 0:39:55.239 --> 0:39:57.360 In this, she wrote, you can call me a grandma killer. 0:39:58.080 --> 0:40:02.000 I'm not sacrificing my home, food on the table, all 0:40:02.040 --> 0:40:06.560 of her docs and dentists, every form of pleasure, museums, zoos, restaurants, 0:40:07.000 --> 0:40:10.680 all my kids teachers in order to make other people comfortable. 0:40:10.960 --> 0:40:14.160 If you want to stay locked down, do I'm not. 0:40:15.760 --> 0:40:18.040 And then sure, it doesn't mean it won't be done responsibly, 0:40:18.080 --> 0:40:21.640 but I am just I am done. I feel lied 0:40:21.719 --> 0:40:24.600 to about the terms of this lockdown, and I regret 0:40:24.640 --> 0:40:28.719 ever trusting that it would be done responsibly. I think 0:40:28.760 --> 0:40:31.080 she's right. I mean, I think that's a that's an 0:40:31.080 --> 0:40:35.560 appropriate response to the lockdown response. I think that this 0:40:35.680 --> 0:40:39.919 is well within where we should be given what we've 0:40:39.920 --> 0:40:41.840 been put through as a country at this point. And 0:40:41.840 --> 0:40:46.160 what they've said is now, this gentleman, mister Balaji Balaji 0:40:46.640 --> 0:40:50.080 came forward and you know, look, this is where it's 0:40:50.080 --> 0:40:52.680 so rare to find some on the other side. So 0:40:52.719 --> 0:40:57.160 someone who's pro lockdown, who's who's smart and not a 0:40:58.719 --> 0:41:02.640 shrill screaming you want to you want to kill Grandma maniac. 0:41:03.160 --> 0:41:04.640 So this is why I wanted to share this with you, 0:41:04.680 --> 0:41:06.480 because I keep giving you, I keep having people on 0:41:06.520 --> 0:41:12.200 the show who are generally speaking with me and being 0:41:12.280 --> 0:41:15.960 skeptical that the response was necessary of the national lockdown 0:41:16.000 --> 0:41:19.600 at least, and that you know, there's no politics involved 0:41:19.600 --> 0:41:22.920 in this with the anti Trump side, But here's how 0:41:22.960 --> 0:41:25.840 the other side approaches it. Those who are trying to 0:41:25.840 --> 0:41:27.719 at least engage, well do you agree with this or not? 0:41:27.760 --> 0:41:29.960 At least they're trying to engage. I wish people ask 0:41:30.040 --> 0:41:32.359 me often, why don't you have liberals on the show 0:41:32.400 --> 0:41:35.279 disagree with you because it just escalates. And if you 0:41:35.320 --> 0:41:37.359 have on radio people who all of a sudden are 0:41:37.360 --> 0:41:40.080 shouting or trying to talk over each other, it's just bad. 0:41:40.840 --> 0:41:45.080 It's bad. And also you know, it's you have limited 0:41:45.160 --> 0:41:48.760 time and to have a debate format and radio, especially 0:41:48.840 --> 0:41:50.520 if you're going to have the host, I mean, I 0:41:50.560 --> 0:41:52.640 determine what the time is, right, I determine how much 0:41:52.640 --> 0:41:54.799 people get to speak on this show. Like radio, the 0:41:54.880 --> 0:41:57.000 host of a radio show is the king of the kingdom, 0:41:57.600 --> 0:41:59.200 and so to have somebody else on if you're going 0:41:59.239 --> 0:42:01.960 to debate, um, this is why. Like one of the 0:42:01.960 --> 0:42:04.200 one of the cheapest things is when you know they 0:42:04.239 --> 0:42:06.200 love to some hosts love to do this. They'll take 0:42:06.239 --> 0:42:09.719 a call from someone who's clearly you know, conservative, will 0:42:09.760 --> 0:42:11.960 take a call from a host who's a guest rather 0:42:11.960 --> 0:42:14.120 who's clearly an idiot and not actually up for the 0:42:14.160 --> 0:42:15.920 debate of challenging them and just yell at them and 0:42:15.920 --> 0:42:18.000 call them an idiot on TV. You know, this is 0:42:18.040 --> 0:42:22.080 a little bit like, uh, the the conservative radio equivalent 0:42:22.480 --> 0:42:25.279 of somebody who wants to watch those videos of like 0:42:25.320 --> 0:42:27.320 the jackass guys back in the day, who would you 0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:30.719 remember those guys Mark who would like light m eight 0:42:30.880 --> 0:42:33.080 s in their underwear and do crazy stuff like that. 0:42:33.080 --> 0:42:35.319 You know I'm talking about. Yeah, of course the jackass guys. Yeah, 0:42:35.360 --> 0:42:37.480 the jackass guys. You know, yeah, I mean you kind 0:42:37.480 --> 0:42:39.280 of watch it, but you know, you know it's really 0:42:39.320 --> 0:42:41.920 not you know, and just having somebody on air anything 0:42:42.239 --> 0:42:44.399 an idiot. You're an idiot, You're dumb, you know, yelling 0:42:44.440 --> 0:42:47.200 at people and being it doesn't help anybody. It doesn't 0:42:47.200 --> 0:42:50.000 help anybody, and it's cheap, it's cheap theater. So I 0:42:50.080 --> 0:42:52.000 want this guy, Balaji. I mean, I can't get them 0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:54.080 to join me on Well, actually you know what, I'll 0:42:54.120 --> 0:42:55.759 ask if we'll join me on radio. I feel like 0:42:55.760 --> 0:42:57.160 he'd say no, but I'll ask him if he'll join 0:42:57.200 --> 0:42:59.799 me on radio. We'll see um. But he said, one 0:42:59.800 --> 0:43:02.319 problem with this logic then this is in response to 0:43:02.360 --> 0:43:04.400 bethany One problem with this logic is that the economy 0:43:04.600 --> 0:43:07.800 is other people. So if older people stay home along 0:43:07.800 --> 0:43:12.080 with millions of cautious people, plus many tourists and business travelers, 0:43:12.120 --> 0:43:14.799 you don't actually get the economy back. Other countries have 0:43:14.880 --> 0:43:17.560 contained the virus. It's doable. So he's saying, we need 0:43:17.600 --> 0:43:20.239 to get to full on containment and then we end 0:43:20.239 --> 0:43:24.120 the lockdowns. I think that that's almost impossible, and if 0:43:24.120 --> 0:43:26.799 we wait that long, the economy will be dead. But 0:43:27.280 --> 0:43:30.320 this is actually where the debate is among serious people. 0:43:31.400 --> 0:43:33.200 So I responded to him, and I said, when people 0:43:33.239 --> 0:43:35.960 see lots of folks who are low risk under fifty 0:43:36.360 --> 0:43:39.799 going about their daily lives just fine, other people will 0:43:39.840 --> 0:43:44.600 become less scared and economic activity will grow over time. Essentially, 0:43:44.680 --> 0:43:47.439 let people who are at low risk and who are 0:43:47.440 --> 0:43:50.880 willing to take that risk engage in more activity, and 0:43:50.960 --> 0:43:53.680 not just economic activity, engage in more of day to 0:43:53.760 --> 0:43:58.040 day life. Okay, Balaji wrote back to me, over fifties 0:43:58.120 --> 0:44:00.719 are thirty percent of the population andicantly more of the 0:44:00.800 --> 0:44:03.800 net worth. If you add in folks with pre existing conditions, 0:44:03.840 --> 0:44:06.800 a big chunk of the US, white collar folks, foreign tourists, 0:44:06.800 --> 0:44:09.520 that's a big chunk of the economy. I guess we'll see. Now, 0:44:09.680 --> 0:44:12.880 see you notice that's that's a signal when you're in 0:44:12.920 --> 0:44:14.840 this world of fighting. This guy's a blue check with 0:44:14.880 --> 0:44:16.480 a with a pretty big following. You know, I'm a 0:44:16.480 --> 0:44:18.720 blue check with a big following or pretty big following, 0:44:18.760 --> 0:44:24.480 whatever reasonably considerable following on Twitter. And but when someone 0:44:24.520 --> 0:44:26.799 says something like I guess we'll see. Oh oh, you 0:44:26.840 --> 0:44:28.680 mean they actually want to have an exchange of ideas 0:44:28.680 --> 0:44:31.160 because they know they don't know you're one of my 0:44:31.280 --> 0:44:34.680 recurring mantras here on the show, my recurring theme. Some 0:44:34.760 --> 0:44:36.799 of you may not like the mantra term, right, but 0:44:36.840 --> 0:44:39.359 some of the recurring themes that we have are things 0:44:39.360 --> 0:44:41.200 like no one can predict the future, and people who 0:44:41.239 --> 0:44:45.239 tell you they can are lying to you. Thinking that 0:44:45.280 --> 0:44:47.560 their analysis may be good about the future is one thing, 0:44:47.560 --> 0:44:49.440 but if they tell you they can see the future, 0:44:49.280 --> 0:44:51.799 they're lying to you. So the fact that he just said, 0:44:51.800 --> 0:44:53.960 I guess we'll see. Man, Okay, Well, now here's someone 0:44:54.600 --> 0:44:57.279 unlike the you want to kill grandma. You know, you 0:44:57.320 --> 0:44:59.640 have so much that you want grandma to die. You know, 0:45:00.160 --> 0:45:02.360 it's usually grandma too, not grandpa. I think that's a 0:45:02.440 --> 0:45:04.279 very interesting but it's always you want grandma to diet. 0:45:04.280 --> 0:45:06.840 It's become the line, which is a horrible and stupid 0:45:06.880 --> 0:45:09.719 thing to say. I mean, I love my grandparents very much. 0:45:09.840 --> 0:45:12.680 Unfortunately they've all passed along a long time ago. But 0:45:13.320 --> 0:45:15.080 this is just when people are trying to shut others 0:45:15.080 --> 0:45:20.319 down through a loud moral blackmail. So to his points though, 0:45:20.440 --> 0:45:22.279 to his points here about how over fifties or thirty 0:45:22.280 --> 0:45:25.279 percent of the population, that's a fair point, and that 0:45:25.320 --> 0:45:27.720 there's a lot of wealth concentrated in the over fifties 0:45:27.840 --> 0:45:30.560 as well. Okay, but let's now, let's now look at 0:45:30.600 --> 0:45:34.440 this for a second. If people are returning to work 0:45:34.520 --> 0:45:39.000 who are at low risk and therefore exposing themselves, many 0:45:39.040 --> 0:45:41.480 of them already have I mean, I think it's fifty fifty. 0:45:41.520 --> 0:45:43.400 I have antibodies, And that's just a guess. I don't know. 0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:47.480 I don't I think it's fifty fifty. Given the situation 0:45:47.520 --> 0:45:48.800 that I was in here in New York during the 0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:51.120 maximum spread of the disease, a lot of people under 0:45:51.160 --> 0:45:55.560 fifty already have antibodies. If they return to work, they 0:45:55.719 --> 0:45:59.160 will be possibly exposed, but then they will get antibodies. 0:45:59.160 --> 0:46:01.120 Maybe they'll get sick for week or two, and a 0:46:01.239 --> 0:46:03.200 very very small percentage might end up in the hospital 0:46:03.200 --> 0:46:05.759 and being really bad shape. But it's a very small percentage. 0:46:06.440 --> 0:46:08.800 But that means more and more people, as we're in 0:46:08.840 --> 0:46:12.440 the reopening, we'll have anybodies, which means that the vectors 0:46:12.480 --> 0:46:14.680 we start getting to this herd immunity concept, the vectors 0:46:14.680 --> 0:46:19.480 for the spread of the disease are fewer, and then 0:46:19.520 --> 0:46:21.560 you have people who perhaps are in their fifties and 0:46:21.560 --> 0:46:23.920 maybe even going up in their sixties, who start to 0:46:23.920 --> 0:46:28.520 feel more comfortable because it's less likely that the younger 0:46:28.560 --> 0:46:31.799 people that are already out there and working, it's less 0:46:31.840 --> 0:46:35.000 likely that they'll be a high risk of contracting the 0:46:35.040 --> 0:46:38.520 disease from them. And you see there's a snowball effect. 0:46:38.719 --> 0:46:42.040 I would also point out that we already have essential 0:46:42.080 --> 0:46:46.600 workers who are going out and doing their jobs. So 0:46:46.719 --> 0:46:49.120 we've taken a segment of the economy and said, well, 0:46:49.120 --> 0:46:50.560 that part of the economy is going to still go. 0:46:50.760 --> 0:46:53.160 It's not like we're in a true lockdown, and there 0:46:53.200 --> 0:46:56.319 are some risks to those essential workers and to people 0:46:56.360 --> 0:46:58.400 that are coming into contact with them their family. This 0:46:58.440 --> 0:47:00.880 is how we get to continue spread of this disease 0:47:00.880 --> 0:47:03.520 even though we're all supposed to be on lockdown. But see, 0:47:03.600 --> 0:47:07.760 my point is if we add low risk workers into 0:47:07.760 --> 0:47:11.440 the mix here to the essential workers, we start we're 0:47:11.480 --> 0:47:16.440 expanning the economy. We're returning and getting closer to normal. 0:47:18.120 --> 0:47:21.640 And then he gave me a graph of the percentage 0:47:21.719 --> 0:47:25.080 of age percentage, which was just a helpful data point, 0:47:25.120 --> 0:47:28.080 and we clarified that. And then I said, as for 0:47:28.160 --> 0:47:31.040 waiting until new infections are zero for reopen, which is 0:47:31.080 --> 0:47:33.800 this is where I have a disagreement with mister Bology. 0:47:35.160 --> 0:47:37.520 Sixty six percent of New York Hospel admissions, as we 0:47:37.520 --> 0:47:40.040 talked about here earlier in the show, we're from people 0:47:40.120 --> 0:47:42.600 locked away in their homes. The virus is still spreading, 0:47:42.640 --> 0:47:44.800 and the virus is still going up in many places 0:47:44.800 --> 0:47:48.839 across the country. So unless people believe that we're going 0:47:48.880 --> 0:47:52.040 to go to an even more extreme lockdown phase than 0:47:52.080 --> 0:47:55.400 what we're already in, which to me just sounds completely insane, 0:47:56.520 --> 0:47:59.720 we're never going to get to full containment of the disease, 0:48:00.000 --> 0:48:03.279 are our current projections a country this size, of this 0:48:03.400 --> 0:48:06.279 many people we have to, you know, and unless we're 0:48:06.280 --> 0:48:08.320 gonna say there's no such thing as essential workers anymore. 0:48:08.400 --> 0:48:10.440 No no one unless you work in a doc, unless 0:48:10.440 --> 0:48:13.120 you work in a hospital and you're trying to treat 0:48:13.120 --> 0:48:16.360 COVID patients, everyone just stay home, and we're just gonna, like, 0:48:16.560 --> 0:48:18.120 you know, live on the food you got in your 0:48:18.120 --> 0:48:21.279 fridge for a week or two or a month. Now, 0:48:21.280 --> 0:48:23.239 a lot of people say, buck, I mean, people don't 0:48:23.239 --> 0:48:26.239 have food. I know. That's why it's crazy. You can't 0:48:26.280 --> 0:48:29.040 do this right. You can't actually completely freeze the economy 0:48:29.120 --> 0:48:33.160 or people literally will go hungry and starve. So, uh, 0:48:33.480 --> 0:48:35.960 you know, that's that's why I that's what I gotta do. 0:48:35.960 --> 0:48:37.640 And then I also said to him, docs, I've spoken 0:48:37.640 --> 0:48:40.080 to say with velocity and scope of Oh no, I 0:48:40.120 --> 0:48:42.600 asked him about your thoughts on test and trace and 0:48:42.640 --> 0:48:44.560 he said docks. And I said, Docs, I've spoken to 0:48:44.640 --> 0:48:47.719 with about the velocity and scope of existing spread and 0:48:47.800 --> 0:48:50.319 deploying tracers across the country to hotspots, this is going 0:48:50.360 --> 0:48:53.160 to be minimally helpful. I'm gonna be right on this one. 0:48:53.480 --> 0:48:55.760 This test and trace theory, this is, this is absurd. 0:48:55.880 --> 0:48:57.239 This is not gonna work. I mean, people that are 0:48:57.239 --> 0:48:59.359 saying it's gonna work done what we're talking about. We 0:48:59.400 --> 0:49:02.080 also have many empty testing facilities, I wrote, all over 0:49:02.080 --> 0:49:05.520 the country already, and with asymptomatic spread, it seems unless 0:49:05.520 --> 0:49:08.120 we're going to force everyone to get tested every two weeks, 0:49:08.400 --> 0:49:13.040 the value of a national testing surge will be limited. 0:49:14.840 --> 0:49:17.920 So you know, this is and and then we had 0:49:17.960 --> 0:49:19.319 a nice I said, you know, thank you for your time. 0:49:19.320 --> 0:49:20.480 He said, thank you for your time we had. We 0:49:20.520 --> 0:49:23.239 had a kind of a nice close And so, you know, 0:49:23.600 --> 0:49:25.279 this is if you really want to have a debate 0:49:25.320 --> 0:49:27.200 with somebody about what's going on, this is where it is. 0:49:27.880 --> 0:49:29.560 Can we get to the point where we fully control 0:49:29.640 --> 0:49:32.320 this virus and there's almost no risk of going outside, 0:49:32.320 --> 0:49:34.840 and can we do that without destroying the economy and 0:49:35.040 --> 0:49:38.600 ruining our society? I say no. Some people say yes, 0:49:39.600 --> 0:49:41.960 and they'll point to particularly other countries that they say 0:49:42.000 --> 0:49:44.800 have controlled the virus very very well so far, Australia 0:49:44.840 --> 0:49:47.040 being one of about Australia, remember where they're on the 0:49:47.040 --> 0:49:49.440 flip of us see in terms of their seasons on 0:49:49.440 --> 0:49:52.160 the flip side. I'm wondering how well they'll do this summer. 0:49:53.040 --> 0:49:57.160 And also some countries have a much less dense population. 0:49:57.760 --> 0:50:01.440 And you know, there's just certain things about America that 0:50:01.600 --> 0:50:03.560 it's going to make it very hard to fully control 0:50:03.600 --> 0:50:06.160 the disease. And we're losing you know, I haven't even 0:50:06.200 --> 0:50:08.480 mentioned you yet because I got all fired up about this, 0:50:08.520 --> 0:50:11.320 but we've got three point two million people who have 0:50:11.400 --> 0:50:14.360 filed for unemployment for the first time last week. That 0:50:14.400 --> 0:50:17.040 brings the total number of jobs lost during the coronavirus 0:50:17.080 --> 0:50:23.360 crisis to thirty three point five million. We are heading 0:50:23.800 --> 0:50:29.120 to forty maybe fifty million lost jobs from this. Now. 0:50:29.239 --> 0:50:31.319 I saw this on the Wall Street Journal, I believe 0:50:31.360 --> 0:50:32.800 was the Wall Street Journal. It was a poll that 0:50:32.920 --> 0:50:37.360 said seventy seven percent of laid off workers think that 0:50:37.400 --> 0:50:39.399 they will return to their old job after the stay 0:50:39.400 --> 0:50:42.160 at home orders home. Well, you know that we're getting 0:50:42.160 --> 0:50:43.759 close to eighty percent of people think they're just going 0:50:43.800 --> 0:50:46.360 to take their own job. This is where I have 0:50:46.400 --> 0:50:48.840 to say, I hope they're right. I am pretty confident 0:50:48.880 --> 0:50:52.920 they're wrong. The costs that have been that have mounted 0:50:52.960 --> 0:50:55.759 for these businesses, and also what the businesses will be 0:50:55.800 --> 0:50:58.759 able to operate at even when the lockdowns end, it's 0:50:58.800 --> 0:51:02.480 going to be a very meager income stream for a 0:51:02.480 --> 0:51:04.640 lot of businesses once they open their doors. This is 0:51:04.680 --> 0:51:08.360 going to be a long, drawn out, phased in process 0:51:08.560 --> 0:51:10.160 no matter what. And that's if they make the right 0:51:10.200 --> 0:51:12.759 decisions and stop saying, oh the second wave and we're 0:51:12.760 --> 0:51:16.440 all gonna die. And you know, if they take if 0:51:16.440 --> 0:51:18.600 they take the right path here, it's still gonna be painful, 0:51:18.600 --> 0:51:21.400 it's still gonna be difficult. So I don't think that 0:51:21.480 --> 0:51:23.759 eighty percent or so of these of people who think this, 0:51:23.880 --> 0:51:26.560 I don't think they're correct. I think that they're gonna 0:51:26.560 --> 0:51:27.959 be a lot of lost jobs and jobs that aren't 0:51:27.960 --> 0:51:29.600 coming back because they are industries that won't be able 0:51:29.640 --> 0:51:31.719 to sustain even when they reopen, won't be able to 0:51:31.760 --> 0:51:34.799 sustain the workforce that they once did. What do we 0:51:34.840 --> 0:51:38.880 do with that? But for the forever lockdown crowd, we 0:51:38.960 --> 0:51:41.200 are not South Korea, we are not Australia, we are 0:51:41.239 --> 0:51:44.799 not Japan, and no one can even figure out what 0:51:44.880 --> 0:51:48.000 they've done that we haven't done that would let us 0:51:48.040 --> 0:51:50.280 even try to get to the level of virus control 0:51:50.360 --> 0:51:53.719 that's so far they've had. I mean, people will say 0:51:53.719 --> 0:51:56.200 test and trace, but that doesn't make any sense. Asymptomatic 0:51:56.239 --> 0:51:57.880 spread is fifty percent of the disease. You're going to 0:51:57.960 --> 0:52:00.200 test and trace three hundred and thirty million people. Think 0:52:00.239 --> 0:52:04.200 about this, Think about the infrastructure and the resources and 0:52:04.239 --> 0:52:05.759 the cost of even trying to do this. It's just 0:52:05.800 --> 0:52:08.840 not even gonna Meanwhile, we're getting three hundred thousand infections 0:52:08.840 --> 0:52:11.560 a day, you know, one tenth of one percent of 0:52:11.560 --> 0:52:14.840 people are actually getting hospitalized, and we're dying from this, 0:52:15.080 --> 0:52:17.239 which means you're getting every day, you know, every few 0:52:17.320 --> 0:52:19.560 days a million more people who are gonna end up 0:52:19.560 --> 0:52:21.879 with antibodies. Every few days, a million more people we're 0:52:21.880 --> 0:52:24.600 gonna end up with antibodies. I mean, it seems like 0:52:24.600 --> 0:52:26.840 we're just heading toward a her community. We just won't 0:52:26.840 --> 0:52:28.439 talk about it that way because we want to pretend 0:52:28.440 --> 0:52:30.840 that we can just save lives across the board without 0:52:30.840 --> 0:52:34.520 the economic costs. It's all very complicated. I mean, I'll 0:52:34.520 --> 0:52:37.200 admit that it's all very tough. And as mister Balaji says, 0:52:37.440 --> 0:52:42.680 we'll see you're in the freedom hunt. This is the 0:52:42.800 --> 0:52:49.000 Buck Sex and Show podcast. All right, got some good 0:52:49.000 --> 0:52:50.640 news to share with all of you. You know, we 0:52:50.800 --> 0:52:55.319 talked about the story of Texas stylist Shelley Luther and 0:52:55.400 --> 0:52:58.600 who said that feeding her children was not selfish and 0:52:58.680 --> 0:53:00.520 that the people who worked for her who were going 0:53:00.560 --> 0:53:03.120 hungry themselves so they could feed their children and they 0:53:03.120 --> 0:53:05.479 wanted to go back and start styling people's hair again, 0:53:05.760 --> 0:53:09.840 they were not being selfish by doing their jobs. Well, darnatt, 0:53:09.880 --> 0:53:12.439 Texas is still Texas. It turns out, the Supreme Court 0:53:12.480 --> 0:53:17.560 of Texas has decided to order the immediate release of 0:53:17.800 --> 0:53:22.080 jailed Texas Salon owner Shelley Luthor. She was sent ince 0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:24.680 to a week in prison by a judge who really 0:53:24.719 --> 0:53:27.319 did not do himself any favors in the way that 0:53:27.320 --> 0:53:30.600 that whole thing came out. And she now has a 0:53:30.680 --> 0:53:35.680 gofund me page that has raised five hundred thousand dollars 0:53:35.719 --> 0:53:39.920 for her. Yeah, still America, my friends, Still Texas for sure. 0:53:40.600 --> 0:53:44.960 She is released. Now, she has been released from prison. 0:53:45.040 --> 0:53:47.839 She's not going to spend seven days there. And these 0:53:47.920 --> 0:53:51.920 judges in the Texas Supreme Court said that the punishment 0:53:51.960 --> 0:53:55.480 was excessive and the jailing was unnecessary. This is off 0:53:55.480 --> 0:53:58.160 from the local affiliate down in Dallas. No Texan quote 0:53:58.160 --> 0:54:03.040 should face imprisonment for peacefully resisting an order that temporarily 0:54:03.040 --> 0:54:05.840 closed a lawful business and drastically limited their ability to 0:54:05.840 --> 0:54:09.920 provide for their family through no fault of their own. 0:54:11.080 --> 0:54:13.760 God bless Texas. My friends doing the right thing, showing 0:54:13.760 --> 0:54:15.560 the country how it's done here, and God bless these 0:54:15.640 --> 0:54:17.440 judges for making the right call. That's what we like 0:54:17.520 --> 0:54:20.560 to see. It does feel like America, after all, doesn't it. 0:54:21.280 --> 0:54:24.840 Thanks for listening to The Busson Show podcast. Remember to 0:54:24.880 --> 0:54:28.719 subscribe on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you 0:54:28.800 --> 0:54:33.160 get your podcasts. All right, Team Bucks Special Treat today. 0:54:33.160 --> 0:54:35.480 And I've been trying to get this guy on the 0:54:35.520 --> 0:54:38.120 show for a while, but you know, he's got beautiful weather, 0:54:38.320 --> 0:54:40.359 he's got to go out and serve sometimes. He's got 0:54:40.360 --> 0:54:43.960 his own fantastic three hour radio show on a wonderful 0:54:44.000 --> 0:54:47.879 station in San Diego that we now share KFMB, so, 0:54:47.920 --> 0:54:50.600 I mean, the best San Diego station that's out there, 0:54:50.800 --> 0:54:52.680 and he's doing a great show. He's also on the 0:54:52.800 --> 0:54:55.279 First which is on Pluto TV, where you can all 0:54:55.280 --> 0:54:57.160 see me and you can see Jesse Kelly, you can 0:54:57.160 --> 0:55:00.120 see Mike Slater, the one only Mike Slater of the 0:55:00.120 --> 0:55:03.560 MIC's later show My Friend. Finally, I'm glad that our 0:55:03.560 --> 0:55:06.759 people were able to get through to your people. Yeah, right, 0:55:06.800 --> 0:55:09.680 like I have people. Welcome to my kitchen, Buck, Yeah, 0:55:09.719 --> 0:55:13.440 it's it's quite are I mean, it's funny because your 0:55:13.480 --> 0:55:16.360 kitchen is like twice the size of my New York apartment, 0:55:16.600 --> 0:55:19.640 which is yet again another reason another reason why I 0:55:19.640 --> 0:55:22.680 should be moving from New York City right away. Let's 0:55:22.719 --> 0:55:25.920 talk about Callie first. Go ahead, go ahead. I just 0:55:25.960 --> 0:55:28.400 say I think of you often. I'm not kidding because 0:55:28.440 --> 0:55:32.920 I think other than maybe like an Iowa meatpacking plant. 0:55:32.960 --> 0:55:35.760 You might be in the worst place in the country 0:55:35.920 --> 0:55:38.840 right now, literally not only New York City. But you're like, 0:55:38.840 --> 0:55:40.759 like I can see behind you. You're like in the 0:55:40.840 --> 0:55:43.560 densest part of New York City. What in the world, Like, 0:55:43.760 --> 0:55:45.520 can you go outside? Like what do you do? Right? 0:55:45.680 --> 0:55:50.720 I can walk my dog through Times Square in less 0:55:50.760 --> 0:55:54.239 than three minutes from where I am on foot. That's 0:55:54.239 --> 0:55:56.000 how close I am to the epicenter. And by the way, 0:55:56.040 --> 0:56:00.799 Time Square that area was the biggest outbreak of any 0:56:00.880 --> 0:56:03.800 zip code in Manhattan of the Five boroughs was Time Square. 0:56:03.880 --> 0:56:05.600 So basically I mean I live next to like the 0:56:06.320 --> 0:56:09.279 most hot zone in Manhattan, although there's other bigger hot 0:56:09.360 --> 0:56:11.759 zones in the Five Boroughs. And yeah, it's the most 0:56:11.760 --> 0:56:14.080 densely packed part of the whole city. And during the 0:56:14.120 --> 0:56:16.840 maximum spread of the virus, I was on the subway 0:56:16.880 --> 0:56:19.000 because I do two radio shows, as I think you 0:56:19.040 --> 0:56:22.480 may know, I was on the subway four times a day, 0:56:23.400 --> 0:56:26.280 and it's one of the three most crowded subway lines. 0:56:26.320 --> 0:56:28.640 So to your question about whether I was at a 0:56:29.040 --> 0:56:32.600 high risk of acquiring this, it's like I was running 0:56:32.640 --> 0:56:34.759 an experiment saying, Hey, guys, I really want to get 0:56:34.800 --> 0:56:38.440 COVID nineteen. That's what I was doing accidentally. But you're 0:56:38.480 --> 0:56:41.480 out there in sunny You're out there in sunny California, 0:56:41.600 --> 0:56:45.960 so tell me this. You know, people have been Honestly, 0:56:46.000 --> 0:56:48.600 a lot of people have been somewhat befuddled. Although I 0:56:48.640 --> 0:56:54.040 think you your weather, you're inherent social distancing of being 0:56:54.040 --> 0:56:56.640 in a car versus being a mass transportation And I 0:56:56.680 --> 0:56:59.520 would also say you're kind of generally healthier lifestyle. I 0:56:59.560 --> 0:57:01.640 know you guys have like pet therapists and do a 0:57:01.640 --> 0:57:04.239 lot of like yoga and the sun. But yoga and 0:57:04.239 --> 0:57:07.160 the son is good for you, and and it's certainly 0:57:07.239 --> 0:57:09.759 less likely to get COVID nineteen than you would being 0:57:09.800 --> 0:57:13.520 indoors on a crowded subway. So how is California doing 0:57:13.600 --> 0:57:16.520 right now? Gavin Newsom saying that they may actually open 0:57:16.600 --> 0:57:21.080 up stores what next week? Getting Fridays the plan? And 0:57:21.120 --> 0:57:24.120 now there's a whole drama there, because classic Gavin K. Newsom, 0:57:24.120 --> 0:57:27.960 classic politician, is just like, oh, I think yesterday or Tuesday. 0:57:28.040 --> 0:57:30.360 He said, we're gonna open up stores on Friday and 0:57:30.400 --> 0:57:33.880 we'll tell you which stores on Thursday. And it's like, well, geez, Gavin, Like, 0:57:34.200 --> 0:57:36.800 if you're a business owner, you don't. You can't just 0:57:36.840 --> 0:57:39.160 be like snabbed your fingers and open up twelve hours later. 0:57:39.320 --> 0:57:40.880 We need a little more advice. So we don't even 0:57:40.960 --> 0:57:44.280 know yet exactly what the details are on who's going 0:57:44.320 --> 0:57:46.880 to be allowed to open and whatnot. But I think 0:57:47.720 --> 0:57:50.400 San Diego in particular has done a really good job. 0:57:50.440 --> 0:57:53.560 I mean, our our healthcare capacity, we're like way under 0:57:53.600 --> 0:57:56.920 the healthcare capacity of line. People have done a good 0:57:57.000 --> 0:57:58.959 job kind of staying put. But I also think people 0:57:58.960 --> 0:58:00.680 are ready to get back out there and get back 0:58:00.680 --> 0:58:03.760 out to the beach. Are your beaches open right now? 0:58:03.800 --> 0:58:05.360 I mean I know that near you. What is it 0:58:05.400 --> 0:58:08.120 to Lahoya? Is that where one of the places where 0:58:08.120 --> 0:58:10.040 they have those really beautiful beaches? I mean, could if 0:58:10.040 --> 0:58:13.600 I were out there visiting Shay Slater, could I go? 0:58:13.760 --> 0:58:15.360 Could I go to the beaches of Lahoya? Or are 0:58:15.360 --> 0:58:17.640 they shut downs? I don't I don't even know if 0:58:17.680 --> 0:58:20.480 Buck Sexton could afford a house on the beach. Definitely, 0:58:20.560 --> 0:58:23.080 not not even close. Dude. I live in a one 0:58:23.160 --> 0:58:25.320 bedroom man, are you kidding me? Producer Mark needs to 0:58:25.320 --> 0:58:28.080 get me a guest bed. He actually has a real home. 0:58:29.040 --> 0:58:32.280 Far away from the water. But yeah, no, you can go. 0:58:32.360 --> 0:58:34.160 You know, you gotta move. You gotta be moving, you 0:58:34.200 --> 0:58:37.479 can't sit down all that stuff. But what's encouraging is 0:58:37.720 --> 0:58:40.120 our sheriff's actually done a pretty good job, even though 0:58:40.120 --> 0:58:41.720 he's pretty question simble on a lot of things. And 0:58:41.760 --> 0:58:44.080 the Riverside County, which is just north the San Diego County, 0:58:44.400 --> 0:58:46.520 he just can't put out with a statement yesterday, I think, 0:58:46.720 --> 0:58:49.400 saying he's not going to turn Riverside County into a 0:58:49.440 --> 0:58:53.360 police state. He's not going to enforce you know, businesses 0:58:53.400 --> 0:58:55.960 who aren't doing their whatever they're supposed to do properly. 0:58:56.120 --> 0:58:58.160 He's going to trust the people to make the right 0:58:58.160 --> 0:59:01.320 decision and that has to be the proper posture moving forward. 0:59:01.360 --> 0:59:04.240 I know you've talked about the salon owner out in Dallas, 0:59:04.320 --> 0:59:07.200 Luther seven days in jail, Like, what are you lady 0:59:07.280 --> 0:59:09.800 talking about? You know, they've ordered her, they've ordered her released. 0:59:10.120 --> 0:59:13.680 They've ordered her released. Oh yes, thank good. I mean 0:59:13.760 --> 0:59:16.120 they just ordered ad Like, what is that? What is 0:59:16.160 --> 0:59:17.600 the point of that? What are we even trying to 0:59:17.640 --> 0:59:20.480 prove with moves like that. Luckily, our law enforcement here 0:59:20.520 --> 0:59:22.360 is doing a pretty good job. And Orange County so 0:59:22.400 --> 0:59:25.480 that was a couple of days ago Gavin Newsom ordered 0:59:25.840 --> 0:59:29.600 Orange County beaches closes closed. It's like like a punitive measure, 0:59:29.680 --> 0:59:32.440 like Orange County people, you didn't social distance enough, so 0:59:32.480 --> 0:59:35.400 I'm going to order just your beaches closed. But again 0:59:35.720 --> 0:59:38.680 checks and balances, the local sheriff and Orange County said, listen, 0:59:39.120 --> 0:59:41.400 I'm not going to enforce that stuff. You can go 0:59:41.400 --> 0:59:43.120 on the beach if you want at different times, and 0:59:43.160 --> 0:59:46.040 they're not cracking down on it like Gavin Newsom would 0:59:46.040 --> 0:59:48.040 want at least, and that's good. People are being pretty sensible. 0:59:48.080 --> 0:59:50.080 I just feel like that's also it's so much more 0:59:50.080 --> 0:59:53.800 American to have people in positions of authority on issues 0:59:53.840 --> 0:59:56.040 like this say hey, guys, well I'm gonna trust you 0:59:56.040 --> 0:59:58.880 all to be responsible and I don't really even have. 0:59:59.240 --> 1:00:01.160 I mean, the legal authority for some of this stuff 1:00:01.200 --> 1:00:03.640 is questionable at best. But they're just saying, look, I mean, 1:00:03.680 --> 1:00:07.960 we're this is a public information campaign, not a demand 1:00:08.160 --> 1:00:11.240 at at gunpoint campaign to do everything they say, especially 1:00:11.240 --> 1:00:14.040 given how much this stuff has been shifting in recent 1:00:14.280 --> 1:00:16.840 recent weeks, where you know what's safe, what's not, Where 1:00:16.840 --> 1:00:20.640 the information is actually taking us, Uh, you know, Governor 1:00:20.680 --> 1:00:23.520 k Newsom. It sounds like he hasn't been I mean 1:00:23.600 --> 1:00:27.640 Cuomo has now has has now gotten the buckster upset 1:00:27.680 --> 1:00:29.000 with a lot of stuff that he's done. I mean, 1:00:29.000 --> 1:00:31.680 he's made some horrific decisions, and notably the stuff on 1:00:31.800 --> 1:00:35.040 nursing homes is just I can't believe with the incompetence 1:00:35.520 --> 1:00:38.680 has Newsom. You know, I'm thinking that the Democrats are 1:00:38.640 --> 1:00:40.800 gonna have to backfill somebody for Biden. And it's not 1:00:40.840 --> 1:00:42.280 I don't mean in a VP sends. I mean they're 1:00:42.280 --> 1:00:44.919 gonna just say, oh, it's not gonna be Biden. We've 1:00:44.920 --> 1:00:48.040 been hearing this about Cuomo for a while. Newsome people 1:00:48.080 --> 1:00:50.360 also have been talking about a little bit is he 1:00:51.200 --> 1:00:53.160 you know, is he coming out of this whole situation 1:00:53.320 --> 1:00:56.440 looking pretty good? Maybe because California just is inherently a 1:00:56.440 --> 1:00:58.640 better off state to handle this because of what I said, 1:00:58.680 --> 1:01:01.120 you know, the weather and the things that you all about. Um, 1:01:01.320 --> 1:01:04.320 but Houn's Newsom doing? What's the report card? Well? Yes, so, 1:01:04.640 --> 1:01:08.840 first of all, Newsom slick, right, and he's appreciating but 1:01:08.960 --> 1:01:12.600 like he's the slick politician, younger kind of hip cool, 1:01:13.040 --> 1:01:16.760 people love him, the gentle pre pandemic like people fall 1:01:16.840 --> 1:01:18.440 for his thing. You know what I mean. He's got 1:01:18.480 --> 1:01:21.720 like a kind of slick stir is smooth like I 1:01:21.760 --> 1:01:25.080 would I would buy. I would buy a vehicle or 1:01:25.240 --> 1:01:30.560 a gently used kitchen appliance from him, no question. God's goodness, 1:01:30.560 --> 1:01:32.480 So it's worth for a long time. And listen, this 1:01:32.560 --> 1:01:35.800 is a conservative who has no love for Gavin Newsom. 1:01:35.840 --> 1:01:37.720 I think he's done a pretty good job. I'm giving 1:01:37.720 --> 1:01:39.000 a lot of grace. The name of the game for 1:01:39.080 --> 1:01:42.200 me this whole time has been grace to everybody, the politicians, 1:01:42.520 --> 1:01:44.720 to your neighbor, to everyone, because no one, like you said, 1:01:44.720 --> 1:01:46.120 no one really knows what's going on. We're starting to 1:01:46.120 --> 1:01:47.720 get a little better handle, but there's still so many 1:01:47.800 --> 1:01:49.880 unknown So a lot of these politicians I can give 1:01:49.880 --> 1:01:51.360 a lot of grace to. But Gavin, there's some things 1:01:51.400 --> 1:01:53.840 done a pretty good job. Again, they're computatively shutting down 1:01:53.840 --> 1:01:57.200 the beach. Maybe he's holding onto power a little longer 1:01:57.240 --> 1:01:58.680 than he should. I think he needs to loosen the 1:01:58.680 --> 1:02:00.080 reins a little bit. But it looks like he is 1:02:00.120 --> 1:02:02.280 as he talked about kind of opening up businesses. I 1:02:02.400 --> 1:02:05.160 think he's an okay job. Now. The one big thing 1:02:05.320 --> 1:02:07.040 that we're gonna have to start getting some answers for it. 1:02:07.320 --> 1:02:12.040 Is he spent a billion dollars on masks from China, 1:02:12.120 --> 1:02:14.520 and I know speed was important, so you've got to 1:02:14.600 --> 1:02:16.680 kind of balance that out when you know everyone is 1:02:16.680 --> 1:02:19.120 in full panic vote. But now we're getting reports that 1:02:19.240 --> 1:02:23.040 mask across the country from China like aren't even close 1:02:23.120 --> 1:02:25.560 to the N ninety five standards. It's like like fifteen 1:02:25.600 --> 1:02:28.280 percent of what the actual standard is. So one day 1:02:28.320 --> 1:02:30.760 we're going to find out the quality of these masks 1:02:30.760 --> 1:02:33.120 that he bought for our billion dollars. And I'm sure 1:02:33.120 --> 1:02:35.600 there's I'm sure it's going to be like ten times 1:02:35.640 --> 1:02:39.280 the cost of what the masks normally are. But you know, 1:02:39.440 --> 1:02:41.760 he had to act fast and we'll see it. But 1:02:41.800 --> 1:02:44.080 that's like the one kind of big glaring thing that 1:02:44.160 --> 1:02:47.400 Gavin Newsom has done maybe wrong. Look that's from a 1:02:47.440 --> 1:02:52.280 conservative point of view. That's a pretty pretty strong report card. 1:02:52.720 --> 1:02:57.760 I'm seeing here, I think. So I'm seeing here the California. 1:02:57.800 --> 1:03:02.000 You know, Los Angeles has what over eight thousand, Los 1:03:02.040 --> 1:03:04.760 Angeles County has twenty eight thousand. I know you're in 1:03:04.800 --> 1:03:07.800 San Diego, but twenty eight thousand confirmed cases, about thirteen 1:03:08.520 --> 1:03:13.960 hundred deaths, California is a fraction overall. What is a 1:03:14.040 --> 1:03:17.439 fifty four thousand confirmed cases for the whole state, and 1:03:17.520 --> 1:03:20.040 now that's confirmed cases with testing, right, that's not taking 1:03:20.080 --> 1:03:24.080 into account the urology extrapolation of how many people have 1:03:24.240 --> 1:03:27.320 antibodies to this. But you guys are at a fraction 1:03:27.360 --> 1:03:28.880 of the deaths that we have here in New York, 1:03:28.880 --> 1:03:32.960 you have a larger population. It feels like California, you know, 1:03:32.960 --> 1:03:35.160 as much as the politics of it would dictate it 1:03:35.240 --> 1:03:38.480 opening much more slowly. It looks like you guys are 1:03:38.520 --> 1:03:41.240 coming out of this thing. Okay, am I missing something? Now? 1:03:41.320 --> 1:03:44.880 It's pretty wild And what's frustrating in the name of 1:03:45.120 --> 1:03:48.880 unknowns is we may never know why. We did a 1:03:48.880 --> 1:03:53.320 segment a while back about super spreaders and how a 1:03:53.480 --> 1:03:58.240 city can do all the things right, but one super spreader, 1:03:58.280 --> 1:03:59.880 I think in South Korea he was known as case 1:04:00.120 --> 1:04:02.680 thirty one or thirty three or something. That one super 1:04:02.680 --> 1:04:05.920 spreader can like sneeze on a door knob and all 1:04:05.960 --> 1:04:08.320 these people get it and it spreads like crazy, and 1:04:08.360 --> 1:04:10.080 people are gonna look at all different areas in the 1:04:10.120 --> 1:04:11.640 country and around the world, and they're gonna try to 1:04:11.640 --> 1:04:13.680 come up with reasons they're like, oh, you know, the 1:04:13.720 --> 1:04:16.600 Italian's kiss on the cheeks, right, or this country doesn't 1:04:16.640 --> 1:04:18.520 have good healthcare, or people are gonna try to find 1:04:18.520 --> 1:04:22.240 like race angles or socioeconomic angles or whatever. People are 1:04:22.280 --> 1:04:24.840 always gonna try to explain it. And honestly, it's especially 1:04:24.920 --> 1:04:29.040 because it could just be New York. I mean New 1:04:29.120 --> 1:04:31.320 York super dead, so that's kind of like something. But 1:04:31.360 --> 1:04:32.800 people be like, oh, there was just a couple of 1:04:32.800 --> 1:04:35.360 super spreaders and it just spread it way more, and 1:04:35.400 --> 1:04:37.560 there's really no answer. It just kind of happened that way. Well, 1:04:37.600 --> 1:04:39.120 you know, they be calipointed. There weren't a lot of 1:04:39.120 --> 1:04:41.880 super spreaders. New York is in a sense thus super 1:04:41.880 --> 1:04:44.960 spreader because the evidence that they're they're point of view 1:04:45.000 --> 1:04:47.320 today on the front pages of a bunch of newspapers 1:04:48.400 --> 1:04:52.200 is that New York cases we essentially created this. You know, 1:04:52.240 --> 1:04:54.640 the Petri dish of New York was overflowing, and then 1:04:55.160 --> 1:04:57.439 travel from New York once it had spread all over 1:04:57.520 --> 1:05:01.280 here to the rest of the country. See did outbreaks 1:05:01.320 --> 1:05:05.480 in Louisiana like for Marty Graf for example, seated outbreaks 1:05:05.560 --> 1:05:09.040 in Florida, in Michigan, in places all across the country, 1:05:09.120 --> 1:05:11.600 so one place, you know, you're talking about it on 1:05:11.640 --> 1:05:14.360 an individual level where one human being could end up 1:05:14.400 --> 1:05:16.520 being responsible for it. And then there was a I 1:05:16.520 --> 1:05:18.200 think there was also a case in South Korea somebody 1:05:18.200 --> 1:05:20.280 who went to a went to a church. Is that 1:05:20.360 --> 1:05:22.400 is that the same? And then this might be a 1:05:22.440 --> 1:05:24.240 different one went to a church and like one hundred 1:05:24.240 --> 1:05:27.120 people in the church ended up getting infected somehow for whatever. Yeah, 1:05:27.120 --> 1:05:29.160 you know, so can you make like, so what kind 1:05:29.200 --> 1:05:31.560 of grand conclusions can you make about that area in 1:05:31.600 --> 1:05:36.160 South Korea about there's sozio economic levels or culture or whatever, 1:05:36.200 --> 1:05:37.680 when it was just like someone who went to church 1:05:37.680 --> 1:05:39.680 and sneezed a couple of times. What do you think? 1:05:39.720 --> 1:05:41.000 What do you think is though it's hard to make 1:05:41.040 --> 1:05:43.880 conclusive state, what do you think of Governor Pritzker of 1:05:43.920 --> 1:05:47.640 Illinois saying, yeah, no church until there's a vaccine. I 1:05:47.640 --> 1:05:51.400 think people were like, what you know, settle down, settle down, 1:05:51.520 --> 1:05:56.040 Chubby Beelzebub, like, what are you doing. There's a couple 1:05:56.160 --> 1:06:00.320 power trips out there that we're seeing, right, So the 1:06:00.120 --> 1:06:04.560 the Harvard judge from in Texas that we were just 1:06:04.560 --> 1:06:06.960 talking about, like, that's a power trip. Move man to 1:06:07.040 --> 1:06:09.600 put that guy for seven seven days. Put that one. 1:06:10.080 --> 1:06:14.320 There's another power trip move right, Like, if other businesses 1:06:14.640 --> 1:06:18.000 can have people keep their distance, then why couldn't a 1:06:18.120 --> 1:06:21.000 church also people keep their distance. That makes no sense. 1:06:21.160 --> 1:06:24.800 Why single out churches? I don't get that. I think 1:06:24.840 --> 1:06:27.640 that there's a hostility among people who love power of 1:06:27.680 --> 1:06:30.560 the state to the You know, they always talk about 1:06:30.560 --> 1:06:32.240 separation of church and state when they want to bash 1:06:32.280 --> 1:06:34.120 the church, and now all of a sudden, when the 1:06:34.120 --> 1:06:37.360 state has taken on all this power for itself, churches 1:06:37.400 --> 1:06:40.000 are the the whatever whatever essential is. Churches are the 1:06:40.040 --> 1:06:44.200 opposite of essential to these people. Yeah, wow, that's interesting. Okay, 1:06:44.200 --> 1:06:46.080 so this is good. We need to keep them keep 1:06:46.120 --> 1:06:48.520 an eye off for the cincinnatiss So who are the 1:06:48.520 --> 1:06:50.600 cincinnatis is out there? Who are going to are you 1:06:50.600 --> 1:06:53.720 refer to the Roman general who is out Is this 1:06:53.760 --> 1:06:56.760 a Roman general called out of retirement to save the republic? Thing? 1:06:56.880 --> 1:06:58.320 Is that? Is that what we're going That's what I'm 1:06:58.360 --> 1:07:00.480 talking about looking at you. One of his story, as 1:07:00.520 --> 1:07:03.000 you know, is he gave the power back, right, So 1:07:03.200 --> 1:07:04.800 who are the governors who are going to give this 1:07:04.800 --> 1:07:07.320 power back once they've had a blood lust taste for it? 1:07:08.680 --> 1:07:10.960 In a way that they haven't had in their career. Certainly, 1:07:11.000 --> 1:07:12.960 will they give it back to the bloke I think 1:07:13.160 --> 1:07:15.600 you talked about it was like, no, he's not. And 1:07:15.680 --> 1:07:17.640 let me just reminder we're talking to Mike Slater, who 1:07:17.720 --> 1:07:19.920 is the host of the Mike Slater Show KFMB, the 1:07:20.000 --> 1:07:23.640 greatest radio station in San Diego in San Diego County, 1:07:23.960 --> 1:07:25.640 which I'm also on. So the two of us are 1:07:25.680 --> 1:07:27.920 on it, which clearly makes it the best radio station anywhere. 1:07:28.120 --> 1:07:30.880 By the way, like we just for people who don't know, 1:07:31.200 --> 1:07:34.080 I have been riding your coattails for like ten years now. 1:07:34.120 --> 1:07:36.600 I think I think everywhere you go, I end up 1:07:36.600 --> 1:07:38.320 following you. So I appreciate it. Well, I was going 1:07:38.360 --> 1:07:40.320 to tell you, I mean, now I'm jumping to the head. 1:07:40.320 --> 1:07:42.640 I was gonna say, we hit the first on Pluto TV. 1:07:42.680 --> 1:07:45.200 I have managed to put together you have like two 1:07:45.280 --> 1:07:48.480 of the nicest, funniest, best people on radio with Jesse 1:07:48.680 --> 1:07:51.760 Kelly and Mike Slater. And you know, I'm just like, 1:07:51.760 --> 1:07:54.200 everybody should be watching this. Everybody should listen to this lineup. 1:07:54.280 --> 1:07:56.400 I mean legitimate For those of you you don't know, listen 1:07:56.440 --> 1:07:58.160 to my show. Mike Slater is one of the nicest 1:07:58.160 --> 1:07:59.960 pa it has been since he started the blaze. He's 1:08:00.080 --> 1:08:01.600 actually so nice. Did At first I was like, is 1:08:01.600 --> 1:08:03.520 he really this nice? Turns out he actually is. He's 1:08:03.560 --> 1:08:06.080 that good of a guy. Yeah. I'm throwing it out 1:08:06.080 --> 1:08:08.080 and thrown it all your right now, are you handling 1:08:08.080 --> 1:08:12.160 it up about that buddy?

You can 1:08:16.680 --> 1:08:18.680 listen to Mike's Later podcast. Let me ask you this, 1:08:18.680 --> 1:08:22.040 when when do you think are we breaking the damn here? 1:08:22.240 --> 1:08:25.640 Are we breaking the damn in in the reopen nationally? 1:08:25.840 --> 1:08:27.880 Or is this going to be a grind it out 1:08:27.960 --> 1:08:31.400 state by state, phase up, phase down fight? What are 1:08:31.400 --> 1:08:34.559 you seeing? Okay, Yeah, here's here's what I think. Who 1:08:34.560 --> 1:08:38.120 knows right? I've always thought, always thought the last week 1:08:38.200 --> 1:08:39.360 or so that it is going to be kind of 1:08:39.360 --> 1:08:41.400 like a bell curve and people are going to be 1:08:41.439 --> 1:08:42.680 able to make up their own minds and people are 1:08:42.720 --> 1:08:46.200 going to go into their own categories. How much time 1:08:46.200 --> 1:08:47.840 do we have? Do I have two minutes to explain us? 1:08:47.960 --> 1:08:50.680 About a minute? He got a minute? I can only 1:08:50.680 --> 1:08:52.080 give you a minute because we got a station break 1:08:52.160 --> 1:08:56.120 go ahead. So in technology adaption people, there are people 1:08:56.120 --> 1:08:58.800 who by the first iPhone as soon as it comes out, 1:08:58.920 --> 1:09:00.680 and then there's a certain percentage people who can't wait 1:09:00.680 --> 1:09:02.400 a little while. And then there's a certain percentage people 1:09:02.400 --> 1:09:04.240 who wait until they really need one. And then there's 1:09:04.240 --> 1:09:06.320 a certain percentage people who don't buy an iPhone until 1:09:06.320 --> 1:09:08.559 there's no more flip phones. And it's a bell curve 1:09:08.760 --> 1:09:10.760 early adopters who can google that a little more. I 1:09:10.760 --> 1:09:12.200 think that's the same thing here. I think a very 1:09:12.280 --> 1:09:14.519 small percentage of people want to go out to concerts 1:09:14.560 --> 1:09:16.920 now a little bit more. People are like, I'm gonna 1:09:16.920 --> 1:09:19.160 wait a week or so, and then you have me 1:09:19.200 --> 1:09:20.960 who's like, I'm gonna kind of la wait like a month. 1:09:21.040 --> 1:09:22.439 I got a two month old here. I don't want 1:09:22.439 --> 1:09:24.000 to push anything. I don't wait like a month. And 1:09:24.040 --> 1:09:25.800 then there's some people who write play are like, I'm 1:09:25.800 --> 1:09:27.240 not really gonna go anywhere for a while because I 1:09:27.280 --> 1:09:29.120 have health issues or I'm older or whatever. So I 1:09:29.160 --> 1:09:31.400 think it's like a natural bell curve distribution of when 1:09:31.400 --> 1:09:33.120 people are going to go, and people are going to 1:09:33.200 --> 1:09:35.160 make up their own lines based off the information we 1:09:35.200 --> 1:09:37.479 have We don't need gavinue From or any governor telling 1:09:37.880 --> 1:09:40.719 you you are allowed, you're not allowed, you can you can't. 1:09:40.760 --> 1:09:42.840 I think people are all adults and wise enough to 1:09:42.880 --> 1:09:44.880 do that by themselves. If I come out to San 1:09:44.920 --> 1:09:47.360 Diego so we can hang out with the fine people 1:09:47.479 --> 1:09:50.240 in the audience of KFMB, can you also teach me 1:09:50.280 --> 1:09:53.439 to surf. I'm not the best serve, but I can 1:09:53.479 --> 1:09:55.760 definitely treat you to a green smoothie. Maybe that's the 1:09:55.840 --> 1:09:58.840 California kale smoothie. Is what's keeping us healthy out here. 1:09:58.920 --> 1:10:01.240 Maybe that's it. All right, I'll take it. Mike's Later 1:10:01.280 --> 1:10:05.519 Everybody check out the Mikes Later show.

Although I 1:10:34.080 --> 1:10:36.000 gotta say producer Mark, I thought I thought he was 1:10:36.000 --> 1:10:38.639 gonna be like, dude, I've been surfing like he he 1:10:38.880 --> 1:10:42.240 seems like he could be in Point Break with Keanna Reeves. 1:10:42.240 --> 1:10:44.879 But he's actually not a surfer. I mean not everyone 1:10:44.920 --> 1:10:47.160 who lives in San Diego surfs. You know that, right, 1:10:47.479 --> 1:10:49.719 I guess, I guess, But he is what I said before, 1:10:49.760 --> 1:10:51.559 I really mean that. I want to reiterate it. He's 1:10:52.120 --> 1:10:56.080 one of the nicest, best dudes in the radio business, 1:10:56.160 --> 1:10:58.960 which is full of a lot of not nice people 1:10:59.080 --> 1:11:02.479 who you know who are who are terrible. Actually, Mike's 1:11:02.520 --> 1:11:04.800 Later and Jesse Kelly are like two guys that you'd 1:11:04.800 --> 1:11:07.000 want to be friends with and you'd want as neighbors, 1:11:07.040 --> 1:11:09.080 you'd want them coaching your kids little league team or 1:11:09.120 --> 1:11:12.120 football team. They're they're just great dudes, and so it's 1:11:12.160 --> 1:11:14.479 it's an honor, honestly to be with them on Pluto 1:11:14.520 --> 1:11:17.200 TV the first along with along with Data Lash, who 1:11:17.240 --> 1:11:21.080 was a longtime friend and colleague, was fantastic.

Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the 1:11:44.120 --> 1:11:49.280 iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. One thing 1:11:49.320 --> 1:11:52.959 I like to point out is the number of criminal 1:11:53.000 --> 1:11:57.920 cases and investigations brought against Republicans that quite clearly would 1:11:57.920 --> 1:12:01.519 never have been brought against Democrats. Off the top of 1:12:01.560 --> 1:12:07.439 my head, you've probably heard me say this before, but 1:12:07.560 --> 1:12:11.400 you can think of Scott Walker in Wisconsin and the 1:12:11.600 --> 1:12:14.240 efforts to use the John Doe laws of that state 1:12:14.280 --> 1:12:16.800 to silence and destroy people around him to take down 1:12:17.560 --> 1:12:20.519 Scott Walker, who upset the public sector unions and the 1:12:20.520 --> 1:12:24.360 Democrat apparatus of Wisconsin. No charges agains. Scott Walker didn't 1:12:24.400 --> 1:12:27.720 do anything wrong, but they were abusing There were prosecutors 1:12:27.760 --> 1:12:31.679 there as state prosecutors abusing their authority to go after him. 1:12:32.800 --> 1:12:36.799 Rick Perry in Texas, there was an effort to criminally 1:12:36.840 --> 1:12:40.439 investigate Rick Perry for abusive authority because he was going 1:12:40.439 --> 1:12:44.679 to withhold funds from a prosecutor who would not step down, 1:12:44.880 --> 1:12:48.120 who had been arrested herself for drunk driving, but they 1:12:48.160 --> 1:12:51.000 wanted to prosecute that as a felony misuse of his 1:12:51.120 --> 1:12:53.280 official position, and they had to drop back because it 1:12:53.320 --> 1:13:01.960 was so stupid. Governor Bob McDonald, who state authorities had 1:13:02.000 --> 1:13:06.479 no interest in going after, but federal prosecutors, no surprise there, 1:13:06.560 --> 1:13:10.640 went after him on the theory that even though he 1:13:10.720 --> 1:13:14.599 had received or had given no benefit of his public office, 1:13:15.640 --> 1:13:17.400 because he had hung out with a rich business man 1:13:17.400 --> 1:13:19.200 who had given him and his wife some gifts, literally 1:13:19.240 --> 1:13:21.479 just hung out with him, had him at parties there 1:13:21.479 --> 1:13:24.360 at the governor's mansion, he should face eleven years in 1:13:24.400 --> 1:13:26.920 federal prison, and his wife should also, who had no 1:13:27.400 --> 1:13:30.000 elected office whatsoever, she should also go to prison. Federal 1:13:30.040 --> 1:13:32.479 prosecutors a lacomie, if you will, the way that they 1:13:32.479 --> 1:13:36.120 do things. You know, that's can you think of any similarities? Oh, 1:13:36.160 --> 1:13:38.280 and then Donald Trump and the Russia collusion, I mean, 1:13:38.280 --> 1:13:40.080 of course that's the biggest one of all. Right, that's 1:13:40.080 --> 1:13:48.800 like the the mounts Olympus of all abuse of prosecutorial 1:13:48.800 --> 1:13:53.599 authority cases for political political means. But you will also 1:13:53.600 --> 1:13:58.320 remember the Chris Christie case. The Chris Christie case. This was, oh, 1:13:58.320 --> 1:14:05.120 this was reported on endlessly, endlessly by Democrat media as 1:14:05.160 --> 1:14:10.280 a major, a major story, I mean, a fascinating tale 1:14:10.280 --> 1:14:14.640 of abuse of power. And you even had Laurence O'Donnell, 1:14:14.880 --> 1:14:20.120 the blowhard host of The Last Word on MSNBC, say 1:14:20.160 --> 1:14:23.559 that a because a ninety one year old woman was 1:14:23.640 --> 1:14:26.800 delayed medical treatment because of the traffic jam that high 1:14:26.840 --> 1:14:31.639 level staffers, Chris Christie staffers caused. That it was the 1:14:31.720 --> 1:14:36.200 quote the Willie Horton moment of Chris Christie's presidential Campaignever, 1:14:36.280 --> 1:14:40.000 Chris Christie was running for president at the time, and 1:14:40.520 --> 1:14:42.200 O'Donnell said, quote, I haven't been able to get the 1:14:42.280 --> 1:14:43.640 name of the ninety one year old woman who was 1:14:43.680 --> 1:14:46.000 delayed medical treatment that day because the traffic jam had 1:14:46.040 --> 1:14:48.639 eventually died, and we don't know whether she died because 1:14:48.640 --> 1:14:50.840 of a delay and treatment. But in politics, that's not 1:14:50.880 --> 1:14:53.519 the way they played this game. So he didn't even know. 1:14:53.600 --> 1:14:56.040 He didn't even know. If you know, this woman could 1:14:56.040 --> 1:14:57.360 have been dead when they picked her up and took 1:14:57.400 --> 1:14:59.439 her in the ambulance. That can happen. She could have 1:14:59.439 --> 1:15:01.960 been done on a Bible. She could have had a condition. 1:15:01.960 --> 1:15:04.760 There was nothing they could do. And you know, he's 1:15:04.800 --> 1:15:06.760 ninety one years old. He doesn't know. All he knows, though, 1:15:06.800 --> 1:15:08.519 is that this is the end of Chris Christy's presidential 1:15:08.560 --> 1:15:11.599 campaign because of a traffic jam that was caused by 1:15:11.600 --> 1:15:17.519 some of his aids. And this was report. MSNBC really 1:15:17.600 --> 1:15:19.160 leaned into this one. They treated this like it was 1:15:19.200 --> 1:15:24.519 a fascinating political tale, and Bridget Kelly and William BARRONI 1:15:26.439 --> 1:15:31.799 were sent to federal prison for this for causing this 1:15:32.080 --> 1:15:35.599 traffic jam. Now, producer Mark lives in New Jersey. Producer 1:15:35.680 --> 1:15:39.800 Mark our traffic jams near the Lincoln Tunnel or the 1:15:39.800 --> 1:15:47.080 George Washington Bridge a rarity. They're almost always happening right now. No, 1:15:47.280 --> 1:15:50.599 but in a normal situation, there is almost always traffic 1:15:50.680 --> 1:15:52.880 in both of those tunnel bridge no matter what. Yes, 1:15:53.000 --> 1:15:56.519 pre pandemic. Anybody who knows the George Washington Bridge or 1:15:56.560 --> 1:15:59.160 the Lincoln Tunnel to get from New Jersey into Manhattan 1:15:59.640 --> 1:16:01.599 would tell you the moment that you start getting close, 1:16:01.640 --> 1:16:03.559 you kind of hold your breath. You're like, please don't 1:16:03.600 --> 1:16:06.000 have this speech there, because you can. This has happened 1:16:06.000 --> 1:16:07.760 to me a lot when I used to drive in 1:16:07.800 --> 1:16:10.120 from Washington, DC to come visit my family in New York. 1:16:10.680 --> 1:16:14.040 You can make great time for four hours and you know, oh, 1:16:14.040 --> 1:16:15.519 I made it from DC to New York. And you 1:16:15.560 --> 1:16:18.240 get within sight. You can see Manhattan, you can see it, 1:16:18.240 --> 1:16:21.280 it's right there. But you get stuck at that Lincoln 1:16:21.280 --> 1:16:24.519 Tunnel and my, oh, you can sit there for forty 1:16:24.560 --> 1:16:28.200 five minutes an hour like it's nothing, like, it's nothing, 1:16:28.640 --> 1:16:31.640 just sitting there, same thing that George Washington Bridge. Right, 1:16:31.680 --> 1:16:34.559 you can sit there all day. Man, there's nothing you 1:16:34.560 --> 1:16:37.800 can do about it. Now. The theory here was that 1:16:38.000 --> 1:16:41.080 these two aids to Chris Christie Bridget Kelly and William BARRONI, 1:16:41.880 --> 1:16:47.160 they created this traffic jam. They were guilty of federal crimes. 1:16:48.280 --> 1:16:51.840 They got sent to prison for a federal fraud and 1:16:52.000 --> 1:16:54.880 federal wire fraud. You know what. The wire fraud was 1:16:55.200 --> 1:16:58.760 writing emails to each each other to create This is 1:16:58.760 --> 1:17:01.800 when the federal government they can use all these statutes 1:17:01.840 --> 1:17:06.479 to just hammer you. But writing these emails constituted a 1:17:07.000 --> 1:17:11.400 use of wire fraud. And yeah, that's what they did. 1:17:12.280 --> 1:17:14.400 That's what they did. They charge them with Federal crown 1:17:14.479 --> 1:17:19.439 sent them to prison. Well, guess what the Supreme Court 1:17:19.960 --> 1:17:26.479 has thrown out the Bridgegate convictions and Justice Elena Kagan, 1:17:26.880 --> 1:17:30.600 who I will say, Elena Kagan is a liberal. She 1:17:30.800 --> 1:17:33.879 is a liberal, and she's on the Supreme Court. Elena 1:17:33.960 --> 1:17:39.439 Kagan is a smart lawyer. Elena Kagan is smart. I see, 1:17:39.560 --> 1:17:43.959 I admit what's true justice so to Mayor, for example, 1:17:44.520 --> 1:17:47.599 is a third tier lawyer and is just not at 1:17:47.600 --> 1:17:50.439 the level of understanding and comprehension of the law to 1:17:50.520 --> 1:17:53.880 be on the Supreme Court. Both liberals, but one of 1:17:53.920 --> 1:18:00.880 them very smart lawyer. The other one. Now, Kagan here 1:18:01.640 --> 1:18:07.320 wrote that not every corrupt and now I believe it was. Yeah, 1:18:07.360 --> 1:18:11.599 it was a unanimous ruling. It was a unanimous ruling. 1:18:11.600 --> 1:18:13.519 So I will give credit to every answer to everyone 1:18:13.560 --> 1:18:16.280 on the court that they made the right call, which 1:18:16.320 --> 1:18:19.559 this is. But it's also of course it's a unanimous ruling. 1:18:20.120 --> 1:18:23.000 Federal wire fraud for writing an email to start a 1:18:23.040 --> 1:18:26.559 traffic jam, Now this is this is the kind of 1:18:26.600 --> 1:18:28.759 act that, yes, people should be held it's a stupid 1:18:28.760 --> 1:18:31.160 thing to do. People should be held accountable. But this 1:18:31.200 --> 1:18:34.240 is something you get fired for. This isn't something you 1:18:34.320 --> 1:18:38.479 go to federal prison for. Starting to think of all 1:18:38.479 --> 1:18:41.479 the people that you know, during protests will stand in 1:18:41.520 --> 1:18:44.880 the street and block traffic. You know, yeah, should they 1:18:44.880 --> 1:18:48.200 maybe be arrested in process because they're actively personally blocking traffic? Sure? 1:18:48.400 --> 1:18:50.599 Do you send them a prison for four years? I mean, 1:18:50.640 --> 1:18:53.000 actually I kind of think sometimes we should. But still 1:18:54.680 --> 1:18:59.040 federal crime, that's what they're saying. And here's here's what 1:18:59.160 --> 1:19:02.439 the Selanna Kagan writing for this in this unanimous ruling. 1:19:02.880 --> 1:19:06.040 Here's how she put it. Quote not every corrupt act 1:19:06.120 --> 1:19:09.519 by state or local officials is a federal crime. Because 1:19:09.560 --> 1:19:12.920 the scheme here did not aim to obtain money or property, 1:19:13.520 --> 1:19:17.440 BARRONI and Kelly could not have violated the federal program 1:19:17.520 --> 1:19:23.200 fraud or wire fraud laws. End quote think of how 1:19:23.560 --> 1:19:25.920 and look, you know, give credit and the libs on 1:19:25.960 --> 1:19:28.960 the court even so am I or all right, I'm 1:19:28.960 --> 1:19:31.120 gonna minute. He's not a good lawyer, but you know 1:19:31.160 --> 1:19:33.519 they did the right thing. Even Ginsburg I think I 1:19:33.520 --> 1:19:39.000 had to call in for the oral arguments recently. Um 1:19:39.120 --> 1:19:41.240 there was this Babylon VP's about how they're trying to 1:19:41.320 --> 1:19:45.400 lock Ginsburg in Um not carp is it? Well, what's 1:19:45.439 --> 1:19:47.280 the thing that they put in Star Wars? They put you? 1:19:47.320 --> 1:19:53.080 Is it carbonite. You're not a Star Wars guy, No, 1:19:53.760 --> 1:19:58.480 sporing to me. Wow, and you still haven't watched the Mandalorian, 1:19:58.520 --> 1:20:00.920 have you? I have not. But producer Nick is telling 1:20:00.960 --> 1:20:03.639 us it is carbonite. Producer Nick, He's he's a he's 1:20:03.640 --> 1:20:06.240 a Star Wars buff. I know, yeah, carbonite. They're trying 1:20:06.280 --> 1:20:08.840 to lock. The joke and the Babylon Bee is they're 1:20:08.840 --> 1:20:13.800 gonna lock Ginsburg and Carbonite because and anything to make 1:20:13.800 --> 1:20:15.680 sure that she's okay, you know, she's still on the 1:20:15.680 --> 1:20:19.320 Supreme Court, especially, I mean, if Trump wins reelection, They're 1:20:19.360 --> 1:20:21.360 they're not gonna I mean, I don't even know what 1:20:21.360 --> 1:20:24.840 they're gonna do, but you're gonna see Ginsburg show up 1:20:24.880 --> 1:20:28.080 and this she'll be like the first, you know, cyborg 1:20:28.120 --> 1:20:30.880 that's ever been created. They're gonna whatever implants they have 1:20:30.920 --> 1:20:34.360 to put in the you know, the technology twenty first 1:20:34.360 --> 1:20:36.800 century sci fi stuff. Whatever they gotta do, they're gonna do. 1:20:37.640 --> 1:20:42.200 That's how much they value having a Supreme Court as 1:20:42.200 --> 1:20:44.479 a super legislature for the left. But but let's go 1:20:44.520 --> 1:20:47.920 back here to the moment to the throw out here, 1:20:48.080 --> 1:20:52.800 and they mentioned the Governor Bob McDonald conviction, which was 1:20:52.840 --> 1:20:55.640 also thrown out by the Supreme Court. These are Republicans. 1:20:56.120 --> 1:20:59.080 You think that's an accident. These are either Republican operatives 1:20:59.160 --> 1:21:03.840 or Republican polity titians who are over zealously prosecuted by 1:21:03.920 --> 1:21:07.080 the Feds. Oh, you mean the deep state has been 1:21:07.080 --> 1:21:09.240 around for a long time. You mean the deep state 1:21:09.320 --> 1:21:13.280 isn't just some new thing against Trump. Mmmm. That's right. 1:21:13.320 --> 1:21:16.160 If you're a lib if you're a Democrat, you get 1:21:16.160 --> 1:21:19.639 to you get to exist under a different set of rules. 1:21:20.160 --> 1:21:22.519 That's just That's just the way it is. That's what 1:21:22.560 --> 1:21:27.000 we see happening time and again. But this is the 1:21:27.080 --> 1:21:30.080 right move. How can you how can you be guilty 1:21:30.160 --> 1:21:34.400 of fraud and wire fraud for just doing, you know, 1:21:34.840 --> 1:21:37.519 doing something within your power? It is, it was within 1:21:37.560 --> 1:21:39.360 their powers to do this. They said that they called 1:21:39.360 --> 1:21:41.880 it a traffic study or something, but it was essentially 1:21:42.439 --> 1:21:45.000 a really dumb prank. And by the way, I don't 1:21:45.000 --> 1:21:47.280 think it's a funny one. I think traffic is not funny. 1:21:47.439 --> 1:21:49.760 I think it's really frustrating. And I think, you know, 1:21:50.000 --> 1:21:51.640 I don't want to know what producer Mark would do 1:21:51.920 --> 1:21:53.880 if you put them in traffic for two hours because 1:21:53.880 --> 1:21:55.800 of a prank and then you handed him a baseball 1:21:55.840 --> 1:21:58.040 bat and said, those are the people responsible. You don't 1:21:58.040 --> 1:21:59.920 want to what you know, it would not be pretty. 1:22:00.120 --> 1:22:01.960 It would not be pretty. He's gonnamit. It would not 1:22:02.000 --> 1:22:05.000 be pretty. So I understand, right, I understand. It's very frustrating, 1:22:05.120 --> 1:22:08.240 But yeah, they should be fired. They should be fired, 1:22:08.280 --> 1:22:13.200 and their reputation should be damaged. Federal prison. Where what's 1:22:13.240 --> 1:22:16.840 the fraud being a moron? If being a moron is 1:22:16.880 --> 1:22:19.960 a federal fraud and writing in an email about your 1:22:20.040 --> 1:22:23.080 being a moron is a federal wire fraud, we better 1:22:23.600 --> 1:22:27.400 really start locking up some politicians all over the place. 1:22:28.160 --> 1:22:31.519 This was absurd. The fact that federal prosecutors took it 1:22:31.560 --> 1:22:34.920 to this extent, the fact that that a judge allowed 1:22:34.960 --> 1:22:39.400 this to happen in the first case, a unanimous, a 1:22:39.600 --> 1:22:43.680 unanimous overthrow of this from a Supreme court just goes 1:22:43.720 --> 1:22:46.439 to show you, folks, there are a lot of political 1:22:46.479 --> 1:22:49.559 hacks and activists wearing robes and prosecutors all. You know, judges, 1:22:49.600 --> 1:22:51.760 robes and prosecutors are not like a normal robe. Hey, 1:22:51.880 --> 1:22:55.040 check out, not like that. I'm not a rope guy. 1:22:55.160 --> 1:22:57.200 By the way, I go to a hotel and I'll 1:22:57.240 --> 1:22:58.600 put on the robe. Just because I feel like you 1:22:58.680 --> 1:23:00.599 got to if you're really getting in the whole tell vibe. 1:23:00.920 --> 1:23:04.080 But I'm not a robe guy, never half been. Um, 1:23:04.880 --> 1:23:07.080 where was I? I just got confused for a second. Yeah, 1:23:07.080 --> 1:23:09.800 so they had to. Uh. I was thinking about a 1:23:09.800 --> 1:23:11.920 time when you could actually go to like spas in 1:23:11.960 --> 1:23:14.360 these places and you could live normal life and wear 1:23:14.400 --> 1:23:18.400 a robe. And you can't do that anymore. So a 1:23:18.479 --> 1:23:21.080 win for justice here. You know, these people, their reputations 1:23:21.080 --> 1:23:24.040 are ruined, their lives are forever, forever marred by this. 1:23:24.400 --> 1:23:26.680 But there shouldn't be in federal prison and even all 1:23:26.720 --> 1:23:29.439 the lives in the Supreme Court degree. But remember my 1:23:29.479 --> 1:23:34.880 initial premise here, where are the Democrats who are unfairly, 1:23:35.120 --> 1:23:37.320 unfairly distrodered. The only one that can come to mind, 1:23:37.360 --> 1:23:39.880 maybe for some of you, is Blogoyevich, who is clearly 1:23:39.960 --> 1:23:44.160 kind of a corrupt guy, but who who has come 1:23:44.200 --> 1:23:49.160 to Blogoevic's defense for overreach of the government Trump and Republicans. 1:23:49.160 --> 1:23:51.600 It's not Democrats that are saying, yeah, you know, Bligoievic 1:23:51.680 --> 1:23:54.479 wasn't really that bad. You got a raw deal. They 1:23:54.640 --> 1:23:56.839 like the same people who want to control every aspect 1:23:56.840 --> 1:23:59.599 of your life now under the pandemic. The same people 1:23:59.600 --> 1:24:01.040 who want to tell you, you know what you could 1:24:01.040 --> 1:24:03.320 eat and you have to recycle and no plastic bags 1:24:03.320 --> 1:24:06.559 being used and all this stuff. Those same people like 1:24:06.840 --> 1:24:09.800 that the state, the big s state, is able to 1:24:09.840 --> 1:24:13.240 crush anyone they want, using the courts and using the 1:24:13.280 --> 1:24:17.280 prosecutors weapons. That's not the country I want to live in. 1:24:18.360 --> 1:24:21.040 If you're going to go to prison, whatever you did 1:24:21.400 --> 1:24:24.479 should be able to be in one sentence. It should 1:24:24.479 --> 1:24:28.200 be clear what you did, why it's bad, and why 1:24:28.240 --> 1:24:30.879 you need to have your freedom taken away. It shouldn't 1:24:30.880 --> 1:24:34.679 be some combat. It shouldn't be like the Logan Act, 1:24:34.760 --> 1:24:36.960 for example, which they went after Flynn on right. It 1:24:36.960 --> 1:24:40.320 shouldn't be some bullcrap that we all know is ridiculous. 1:24:42.080 --> 1:24:48.519 Say you haven't bridge Gate slapped it down. You're in 1:24:48.560 --> 1:24:52.160 the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. 1:24:55.800 --> 1:24:58.200 We have a huge crisis here. We haven't had as 1:24:58.200 --> 1:25:02.920 many people unemployed since the Great Depression. Stores, businesses are 1:25:02.960 --> 1:25:06.360 closing all the time, More people are being laid off, 1:25:06.400 --> 1:25:10.559 people are being have trouble in every way economically. We 1:25:10.640 --> 1:25:14.240 need big, bold action and Speaker Pelosi and I are 1:25:14.280 --> 1:25:18.240 working very closely together on putting together a very strong 1:25:18.320 --> 1:25:21.960 plan which you will hear shortly. The people like McConnell 1:25:22.439 --> 1:25:25.439 and McCarthy and even Trump who say let's wait and 1:25:25.520 --> 1:25:29.479 do nothing, well, they remind me of the old Herbert Hoovers. 1:25:30.320 --> 1:25:33.200 We had the Great Depression. Hoover said just let's wait 1:25:33.280 --> 1:25:35.799 it out. It got worse and worse. We need Franklin 1:25:35.880 --> 1:25:39.080 Rooseveltian type action, and we hope to take that in 1:25:39.080 --> 1:25:41.840 the House and Senate in a very big and bold way. 1:25:42.320 --> 1:25:47.760 The progressive transformation now they will try because of the 1:25:47.800 --> 1:25:51.600 crisis we are going through is inevitable. Right, this is 1:25:51.640 --> 1:25:53.479 what the fight is going to become. We have the 1:25:53.520 --> 1:25:56.519 reopening fight, but we also have the what does the 1:25:56.600 --> 1:25:58.920 government do as we're trying because the reopen is not 1:25:58.960 --> 1:26:00.720 going to be easy, it's not to be clean, it's 1:26:00.720 --> 1:26:03.360 not going to be fast. So how much of a 1:26:03.439 --> 1:26:05.719 role does the federal government take in this whole process. 1:26:06.880 --> 1:26:09.840 That'll be interesting. We'll have to see how much of 1:26:09.880 --> 1:26:11.479 a role does the federal government have to prop all 1:26:11.520 --> 1:26:14.200 of this up and make sure that industries that are 1:26:14.600 --> 1:26:17.680 battered by all of this, that entire sectors of our 1:26:17.720 --> 1:26:20.800 economy that are their own life support, they're not going 1:26:20.880 --> 1:26:23.719 to come out of life support, so to speak, hopping 1:26:23.720 --> 1:26:26.000 around doing backflips and everything's gonna be fine. They're gonna 1:26:26.040 --> 1:26:29.280 be limping. These sectors are going to be barely able 1:26:29.320 --> 1:26:35.519 to move even once they're able to start some business again, 1:26:35.760 --> 1:26:39.320 they're able to re engage in commerce. But the Great 1:26:39.360 --> 1:26:43.840 Depression was exacerbated and elongated by the New Deal and 1:26:43.880 --> 1:26:46.840 by FDR. It lives always fight on this, They say 1:26:46.880 --> 1:26:49.360 it's not true. There have been exhaustive studies of it. 1:26:50.280 --> 1:26:53.080 If you know, maybe this is something. There's actually one 1:26:53.080 --> 1:26:56.240 author in particular I'm thinking of that I'll reach out 1:26:56.280 --> 1:26:57.680 to on this and see if she'll come on and 1:26:57.760 --> 1:27:00.920 just make the case, because people need to understand that 1:27:00.920 --> 1:27:05.160 this the the New Deal made things in the Great 1:27:05.200 --> 1:27:10.000 Depression works. It did not actually take us out of 1:27:10.040 --> 1:27:13.519 the Great Depression. So I know it's history, but the 1:27:13.600 --> 1:27:16.479 history is going to be informing policy right now. And 1:27:16.479 --> 1:27:18.200 that's why they're saying, well, you know, we need FDR 1:27:18.280 --> 1:27:23.040 type action, not the internment of people into camps. Well, 1:27:23.040 --> 1:27:25.120 I'm glad that Democrats will agree with that, right. Their 1:27:25.160 --> 1:27:27.920 hero FDR just kind of always gets a pass on 1:27:28.000 --> 1:27:31.400 that one. I also remember that he's still a hero 1:27:31.520 --> 1:27:35.000 to Democrats. And as we're in this era right now 1:27:35.080 --> 1:27:38.639 of more government control, more government power than we've ever 1:27:38.680 --> 1:27:42.519 seen before, how unthinkable is it really that they would 1:27:42.520 --> 1:27:48.280 try to force people, force people off of their land 1:27:48.520 --> 1:27:52.080 and start telling people under the quarantine rhetoric, right, under 1:27:52.080 --> 1:27:54.759 the quarantine rhetoric, you have to stay in this place 1:27:54.800 --> 1:27:57.400 that we tell you have to stay in. We're not 1:27:57.479 --> 1:28:02.280 there yet, but I didn't think we'd be where we 1:28:02.320 --> 1:28:04.320 are right now. And that was even a month or 1:28:04.320 --> 1:28:06.200 two ago where people are saying, yeah, we'll just stay 1:28:06.200 --> 1:28:09.600 in lockdown forever. One more thing, My buddy Kelly mckinetti 1:28:09.640 --> 1:28:12.840 had a great response. You know, she's now White House 1:28:12.840 --> 1:28:15.479 Press Secretary's doing a great job, and she had a 1:28:15.560 --> 1:28:20.880 response to an assault, a verbal assault of course from 1:28:20.880 --> 1:28:22.800 one of the reporters, just trying to undermine her early 1:28:22.840 --> 1:28:24.439 on in the job, make her look foolish. And this 1:28:24.439 --> 1:28:26.160 one was this was a fun This was a fun one. 1:28:26.200 --> 1:28:30.400 Play ten. Yeah, previous life, before you were Press secretary, 1:28:30.439 --> 1:28:32.759 you worked for the campaign and you made a comment, 1:28:32.800 --> 1:28:35.400 I believe on Fox in which you said President Trump 1:28:35.720 --> 1:28:38.439 will not allow the coronavirus to come to this country. 1:28:39.000 --> 1:28:42.519 Given what has happened since then, obviously, would you like 1:28:42.640 --> 1:28:45.559 to take that back? Well, first, let me note I 1:28:45.600 --> 1:28:50.800 was asked a question on Fox Business about presidents travel restrictions. 1:28:50.880 --> 1:28:53.800 I noted what was the intent behind those travel restrictions, 1:28:53.800 --> 1:28:56.240 which is, we will not see the coronavirus come here, 1:28:56.479 --> 1:28:58.519 we will not see terrorism come here, referring to an 1:28:58.520 --> 1:29:01.000 earlier set of travel restrictions. And I guess I would 1:29:01.000 --> 1:29:04.120 turn the question back on the media and ask similar questions. 1:29:04.240 --> 1:29:07.120 Does Vox want to take back that they proclaim that 1:29:07.120 --> 1:29:10.320 the coronavirus would not be a deadly pandemic. Does the 1:29:10.360 --> 1:29:13.480 Washington Post want to take back that they told Americans 1:29:13.520 --> 1:29:15.880 to get a grip the flu is bigger than the coronavirus. 1:29:16.200 --> 1:29:18.920 Does the Washington Post likewise want to take back that 1:29:19.000 --> 1:29:21.720 our brains are causing us to exaggerate the threat of 1:29:21.760 --> 1:29:24.320 the coronavirus? Does the New York Times want to take 1:29:24.360 --> 1:29:28.160 back that fear of the virus may be spreading faster 1:29:28.240 --> 1:29:31.000 than the virus itself. Does NPR want to take back 1:29:31.040 --> 1:29:33.320 that the flu was a much bigger threat than the coronavirus? 1:29:33.680 --> 1:29:36.320 And finally, once again the Washington Post, would they like 1:29:36.360 --> 1:29:39.000 to take back that the government should not respond aggressively 1:29:39.200 --> 1:29:41.760 to the coronavirus. I'll leave you with those questions and 1:29:41.800 --> 1:29:45.599 maybe you'll have some answers in a few days. This 1:29:45.640 --> 1:29:48.160 is where you do narrative voice, a narrative voice that 1:29:49.560 --> 1:29:51.800 they do not want to take. And they're not going 1:29:51.880 --> 1:29:53.600 to have answers to those questions and they will not 1:29:53.640 --> 1:29:56.160 be taking that back. All right, let's get let's get 1:29:56.200 --> 1:29:58.080 some roll call going here in a moment with producer Mark. 1:29:58.680 --> 1:30:02.880 Thanks for listening to the show past. Remember to subscribe 1:30:02.920 --> 1:30:06.360 on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get 1:30:06.439 --> 1:30:21.679 your podcasts. Hey, team Buck, it's time for roll calls. Yes, 1:30:22.960 --> 1:30:25.320 we have our tunes back. That's what I'm talking about, 1:30:25.400 --> 1:30:29.000 Producer Mark, That's what I'm talking about. I also want 1:30:29.080 --> 1:30:32.800 to tell you that I watched the new Jerry Seinfeld 1:30:33.360 --> 1:30:36.240 stand up special last night with the Snow Princess and 1:30:36.280 --> 1:30:38.120 I would have you seen it yet? Yes, I watched 1:30:38.120 --> 1:30:40.680 it last night as well. Look at that we're so 1:30:40.800 --> 1:30:44.760 sympatica god. And I finished Waco. What do you think 1:30:44.920 --> 1:30:48.360 he was? Fantastic? Fantastic? All right? I mean ATF they 1:30:48.400 --> 1:30:51.320 make APF look like like a Mexican drug card doll. 1:30:51.479 --> 1:30:53.640 Or something that's really bad for the af and then 1:30:53.640 --> 1:30:55.200 they don't make the FBI look good at me. I 1:30:55.200 --> 1:30:56.840 don't know if you've seen the end there, but they 1:30:56.880 --> 1:30:58.519 don't know. I haven't seen the end of yet, but 1:30:58.560 --> 1:31:00.519 I mean I know what happened. So but at least 1:31:00.520 --> 1:31:02.360 there's the one guy and the FBI is like, maybe 1:31:02.400 --> 1:31:05.280 we shouldn't just the way they portrayed there's that guy, 1:31:05.320 --> 1:31:07.559 the negotiator guy. I don't want to ruin it for you, 1:31:07.600 --> 1:31:09.640 but the way they portrayed he looks really good, the 1:31:09.680 --> 1:31:12.439 negotiator guy, and the other guys look the technical guys 1:31:12.479 --> 1:31:14.800 look awful. Oh of course, well you know that's coming. 1:31:14.800 --> 1:31:16.479 And also you have to remember that in the beginning 1:31:16.479 --> 1:31:19.439 of the show, it's based on two memoirs. One of 1:31:19.479 --> 1:31:21.519 the memoirs that the show is based on is the 1:31:21.560 --> 1:31:24.840 negotiator guy. Yes, so it's not surprising. And he's like, 1:31:25.160 --> 1:31:27.759 I got an idea, maybe we shouldn't just kill everybody, 1:31:28.040 --> 1:31:30.559 And they goes like, no, we have all this cool gear, 1:31:30.600 --> 1:31:32.559 we're hardh speed, we gotta go in there and shoot 1:31:32.600 --> 1:31:35.479 everybody and everything. And he's like, but maybe we could 1:31:35.560 --> 1:31:38.200 d escalate for you know, You're like, uh, I think 1:31:38.200 --> 1:31:40.880 the d escalate guy might be onto something in this case, right, 1:31:40.920 --> 1:31:42.640 But yeah, yeah, I think I would have decided with 1:31:42.680 --> 1:31:45.160 a negotiator there. Yeah, the negotiator and the negotiate I 1:31:45.200 --> 1:31:46.120 was like, wait, I got on a da. Maybe we 1:31:46.160 --> 1:31:48.640 don't have to like absolutely create a catastrophe here and 1:31:48.960 --> 1:31:50.760 then and then the other FBI guys like, why are 1:31:50.760 --> 1:31:52.920 you search a whimp? Let's go in there, Let's blow 1:31:52.960 --> 1:31:56.120 everything up. You know, It's like, whoa those FBI guys 1:31:56.240 --> 1:31:58.920 are you know what else? No, Princess, we watched two 1:31:58.960 --> 1:32:01.640 things last night, um, and it was her choice. We 1:32:01.640 --> 1:32:04.519 watched the Seinfeld thing, and I will say, I'm obviously 1:32:04.640 --> 1:32:06.120 the worst thing you can ever do is try to 1:32:06.120 --> 1:32:07.960 take a comedians jokes and tell them because it never 1:32:08.040 --> 1:32:10.000 that's that's always like people will never want to talk 1:32:10.040 --> 1:32:11.280 to you again when you do that, because you just 1:32:11.360 --> 1:32:13.640 ruin it and it's not funny. But I think you 1:32:13.680 --> 1:32:17.679 can refer to the general topic and his thing about 1:32:18.320 --> 1:32:21.479 about porta potties. I mean, I was it actually like 1:32:21.479 --> 1:32:25.760 it was hurting me on the inside. Yes, that was 1:32:25.800 --> 1:32:27.920 like the funniest thing that I've I mean, because it 1:32:28.040 --> 1:32:30.120 was so some of his stuff about cell phones was 1:32:30.120 --> 1:32:32.120 really good too. But the porta Potti thing was was 1:32:32.560 --> 1:32:36.479 you know, I thought he started out a little almost 1:32:36.479 --> 1:32:38.000 like he was kind of nervous, like he hasn't done 1:32:38.040 --> 1:32:39.680 a long time. Like the first five minutes of the 1:32:39.720 --> 1:32:43.360 Seinfeld stand up, I thought were he you know, he 1:32:43.400 --> 1:32:45.000 was kind of getting maybe maybe that's true a lot 1:32:45.040 --> 1:32:46.439 of stand ups, but he was trying to get into 1:32:46.439 --> 1:32:48.960 a rhythm and it was a little yeah, the audience 1:32:49.000 --> 1:32:51.519 a little bit. He was warming up himself. Yes, it 1:32:51.560 --> 1:32:53.200 felt it. FA's right, it felt like he was kind 1:32:53.240 --> 1:32:55.280 of warming up to himself whatever. But when he got going, 1:32:55.320 --> 1:32:57.160 I gotta say, it was was really good. He still 1:32:57.160 --> 1:33:00.519 has I still yeah, he's still. I mean with the 1:33:00.520 --> 1:33:03.040 porta potty thing, that was so funny that like later 1:33:03.120 --> 1:33:04.960 on I thought about it to myself and still kept 1:33:05.000 --> 1:33:08.960 kind of laughing. Um, and then on oh well with Waco. 1:33:09.080 --> 1:33:11.200 The other thing that snow Princess wanted to watch was 1:33:12.760 --> 1:33:14.640 a Diehard, which she had never We were looking for 1:33:14.640 --> 1:33:16.080 someone to watch kind of late night, you know, it 1:33:16.200 --> 1:33:18.360 was just passing out and she's like, I haven't seen 1:33:18.439 --> 1:33:20.960 die Hard. I was like, we could always watch die Hard. 1:33:21.240 --> 1:33:23.000 But in course, of course, in die Hard you have 1:33:23.520 --> 1:33:27.120 Special Agent Johnson and Special Agent Johnson who are like 1:33:27.160 --> 1:33:31.479 the quintessential jerk FBI agents in it. It's really funny, 1:33:31.560 --> 1:33:33.640 you know, especially when the guy it's kind of like 1:33:33.680 --> 1:33:36.200 the Waco guys a little bit. You've you've seen Diehard obviously, 1:33:36.200 --> 1:33:39.200 of course, yeah, I remember the guys like, yeah, we'll 1:33:39.200 --> 1:33:42.160 go in there hounding heavy. You know, think about thirty 1:33:42.160 --> 1:33:45.400 percent casualties for the hostages. I can live with that, 1:33:45.560 --> 1:33:48.640 And everyone's like, what it's The Waco guys are a 1:33:48.640 --> 1:33:50.200 little bit like that, you know, there's a little bit 1:33:50.200 --> 1:33:52.400 of they're like, hey, you know, half the half the 1:33:52.439 --> 1:33:54.519 people may die in the shootout. We're going to start here, 1:33:54.560 --> 1:33:56.759 but you know, you gotta break gotta break some eggs 1:33:56.760 --> 1:33:59.080 to make an omic. I mean, since you know what 1:33:59.160 --> 1:34:04.000 the eventually happen. The Waco guys were worst of that technically. 1:34:04.360 --> 1:34:06.920 Oh yeah, oh no, no, it's really bad. It's really bad. 1:34:07.120 --> 1:34:10.920 Um So, and you know at Ruby Ridge, the Weaver 1:34:11.040 --> 1:34:13.400 family at Ruby Rich they got three million dollars from 1:34:13.400 --> 1:34:15.599 the government. So it's not like you know that that 1:34:15.640 --> 1:34:17.719 thing was bad. It was on a much smaller scale, 1:34:17.720 --> 1:34:21.519 but that was a bad shoot too. Anyway, all right, 1:34:21.600 --> 1:34:23.719 let's get to uh, I know, we get all excited 1:34:23.760 --> 1:34:26.160 about this stuff. I will say, though, I had one. 1:34:26.280 --> 1:34:29.840 I ordered from some gluten free burgers last night from 1:34:29.880 --> 1:34:32.720 a restaurant that I want to try. And you know 1:34:32.720 --> 1:34:34.640 when you read the when you read the reviews and 1:34:34.680 --> 1:34:37.760 you're like, maybe these people just don't like the place. No, 1:34:38.040 --> 1:34:40.800 they were right. I turned to snow Princess, I was like, 1:34:40.840 --> 1:34:42.120 do you like I was kind of like, do you 1:34:42.160 --> 1:34:45.600 like your burger, honey? And she's like she's trying, and 1:34:45.640 --> 1:34:48.640 I'm like, no, you don't. But hey, we put some 1:34:48.640 --> 1:34:50.639 money in the local economy and people are still working. 1:34:50.680 --> 1:34:54.880 And you know she doesn't order a regular burger. Oh no, 1:34:54.960 --> 1:34:56.760 she had a regular one. Oh, I had a gluten free. 1:34:56.800 --> 1:34:59.040 So the gluten free and the regular burgers all sucked. 1:34:59.280 --> 1:35:02.160 Both that yeah, both bad. So that was a that 1:35:02.240 --> 1:35:05.000 was a miss. Swinging a miss from the buckster. All right, 1:35:05.240 --> 1:35:09.400 we got roll calls, so we gotta do it. And 1:35:09.400 --> 1:35:14.439 and the producer mark here it is Greta always like 1:35:14.520 --> 1:35:18.800 that name. Yes, Wisconsin is the Badgers, and our main 1:35:19.000 --> 1:35:24.280 college rivalry is the Minnesota Gophers. Oh gosh, Gophers. Oh yeah. 1:35:24.320 --> 1:35:27.440 In my opinion, the real Midwest beef is between Wisconsin 1:35:27.479 --> 1:35:30.720 and Illinois, though unfortunately I live about a half a 1:35:30.760 --> 1:35:34.839 mile from the Illinois Wisconsin border. Around here, Illinois residents 1:35:34.880 --> 1:35:40.439 are generally referred or commonly referred to as FIBs, effing 1:35:40.640 --> 1:35:46.240 Illinois bastards. WHOA, that's pretty intense Midwest beef, is it? 1:35:46.560 --> 1:35:49.080 That's funny? Their next line is Midwest beef is intense. 1:35:49.120 --> 1:35:51.519 I didn't know that. Yeah, I guess there's nothing better 1:35:51.560 --> 1:35:53.519 to do than eight on each other. Where I come from, 1:35:53.560 --> 1:35:57.080 nobody cares about Mainland Michigan. The the the how do 1:35:57.160 --> 1:36:00.400 we say it, the up, the up upers. The up 1:36:01.000 --> 1:36:03.719 is cool. And yes, we all sound like that, although 1:36:03.720 --> 1:36:05.840 we like to pretend we don't. Oh yeah, we all 1:36:05.880 --> 1:36:09.160 sound like that, do you. Oh youup is great? Oh gosh, 1:36:09.200 --> 1:36:12.000 it's a great place. Uh. And I didn't know that 1:36:12.040 --> 1:36:14.320 there's any I can't imagine people in the West having 1:36:14.880 --> 1:36:16.439 all this beef with each other. But I do know, 1:36:16.560 --> 1:36:18.680 for example, from d the NFL, which is the one 1:36:18.720 --> 1:36:20.880 sport that I have made an effort in recent years 1:36:20.880 --> 1:36:27.600 to really watch regularly, that the beef between the Vikings 1:36:27.640 --> 1:36:30.920 and the Bears is substantial. Yeah, and the Packers and 1:36:30.960 --> 1:36:32.880 the Bears and oh, the Packers and the Bears, and 1:36:33.040 --> 1:36:36.960 the Packers and Bears and Packers and Vikings even bigger actions. Yes, yeah, 1:36:37.040 --> 1:36:38.920 so you can kind of you can kind of sense that. 1:36:38.920 --> 1:36:41.080 One the weird thing for New York is our is 1:36:41.080 --> 1:36:44.760 our New York Football Giants play in New Jersey. Their 1:36:44.840 --> 1:36:46.840 stadium is in New Jersey. So to your New York 1:36:46.880 --> 1:36:50.599 Football Jets, yeah, well, I mean, come out of Jets. Technically, 1:36:50.680 --> 1:36:53.320 the only New York football team is the Buffalo Bills. 1:36:54.800 --> 1:36:58.120 Good call. I'm gonna I'm gonna tell snow Princess is 1:36:58.160 --> 1:37:00.519 from Buffalo, So I'm gonna tell her that that little 1:37:00.520 --> 1:37:03.559 bit of that factoid. I am pressed her in the 1:37:03.560 --> 1:37:05.800 early days by telling her that the Google Dolls are 1:37:05.800 --> 1:37:07.519 in fact from Buffalo and are one of my favorite 1:37:07.600 --> 1:37:09.479 nineties rock bands. And I don't care what people say 1:37:09.520 --> 1:37:11.760 about that. The Google Dolls are great. I have a 1:37:11.800 --> 1:37:15.280 friend who was obsessed with them. They're great. Yeah, they're good. 1:37:15.520 --> 1:37:18.080 Their songs really stand up. I mean they're really catchy, 1:37:18.200 --> 1:37:22.840 you know, good musicians. Anyway, Matthew writes, Hey, Buck, I 1:37:22.920 --> 1:37:25.800 just saw a local restaurant called Publano's with a huge 1:37:25.840 --> 1:37:29.400 crowd outside. Turns out they've organized and an event focused 1:37:29.439 --> 1:37:31.799 on a special day. They're having all out held outside 1:37:31.840 --> 1:37:36.200 with social distancing encouraged. I'm assuming if it's if it's Poblanos, 1:37:36.280 --> 1:37:39.519 it was probably a Sinco de Mayo party. Not to like, 1:37:40.560 --> 1:37:44.040 but I mean right, yeah, if this was sent this week, 1:37:44.080 --> 1:37:46.840 then yeah, it has to be. Yeah. I love the 1:37:46.920 --> 1:37:50.559 ingenuity in their persistence through the crisis. It's truly American strong. 1:37:51.840 --> 1:37:55.439 North Carolina is sick of the quarantine. Shield tie Buck, 1:37:55.439 --> 1:37:58.479 please continue to keep us safe and warm at night, Matthew, 1:37:58.520 --> 1:38:00.599 That's what I'm here for, Shield tie Keeping you safe 1:38:00.600 --> 1:38:03.639 and warm at night, That's what we do. Randy, hey Buck, 1:38:03.680 --> 1:38:08.519 don't feel bad about your nerd trophies. Thanks Randy. I 1:38:08.520 --> 1:38:11.960 want producer Mark will make sure that I'm kept in 1:38:12.040 --> 1:38:14.679 check with my nerd trophies. I competed in some chess 1:38:14.720 --> 1:38:17.120 tournaments back in the day. I didn't get no trophies, 1:38:17.280 --> 1:38:20.080 just a piece of paper. Only one girl was ever 1:38:20.160 --> 1:38:24.040 impressed by my chessboard prowess. Lol. I feel a little 1:38:24.040 --> 1:38:27.360 gross after reading the last sentence. Shields High. You know, Randy, 1:38:27.439 --> 1:38:29.519 chess is I like chess? Actually, I think chess is 1:38:29.560 --> 1:38:31.720 a fun game. It's a fun game to play with 1:38:31.760 --> 1:38:34.920 somebody because you really you know, you can get super 1:38:34.920 --> 1:38:37.240 intense about it, or you can play more relaxed chess. 1:38:37.520 --> 1:38:40.760 My preferred version of playing chess with someone is with 1:38:40.800 --> 1:38:44.040 like a nice glass of mescal or to kill in 1:38:44.080 --> 1:38:46.880 the rocks, or a nice red wine in hand. You 1:38:46.920 --> 1:38:48.879 know that's the way to do it. Maybe play some tunes, 1:38:49.760 --> 1:38:52.240 sit back, relax and let cat Stevens, let the cat purr. 1:38:52.479 --> 1:38:54.360 You know that's that's what you want to do. It 1:38:54.400 --> 1:38:58.200 sounds offensive to people who play chess competitively, I know, right, 1:38:58.320 --> 1:39:00.799 the people that are really into it, or chess nerds. 1:39:00.920 --> 1:39:04.200 I want a bishop tonight six. I will take your 1:39:04.280 --> 1:39:06.920 rook with my bawn. I don't know why they're all Russian, 1:39:06.920 --> 1:39:08.479 all of a sudden what they are, because we all 1:39:08.520 --> 1:39:11.760 know the Rooskis are good at chess, right, Sure, I 1:39:12.040 --> 1:39:14.320 to feed you. I will crush your keying and take 1:39:14.400 --> 1:39:18.760 him from you just like that. No, that's exactly how 1:39:18.800 --> 1:39:20.599 they sound. I'm sure that's exactly how they all say. 1:39:20.840 --> 1:39:22.800 Going to the park, even you'll see some guy they're 1:39:22.840 --> 1:39:25.200 named Igors like I will play you in speed chess. 1:39:25.920 --> 1:39:28.120 We will we will play for money, or we will 1:39:28.160 --> 1:39:30.160 play for who will cut off their finger. I feel 1:39:30.200 --> 1:39:33.280 like this was a storyline on the Nickelodeon cartoon. Hey, Arnold, 1:39:33.600 --> 1:39:36.680 there's something about chess. I've never seen that cartoon. I 1:39:36.840 --> 1:39:38.120 even heard of it, so I'll have to take your 1:39:38.160 --> 1:39:42.840 word for it. He really are old. My name is Suragay. 1:39:42.880 --> 1:39:44.720 I will take your house and all of your money 1:39:44.760 --> 1:39:47.000 if you don't win this chess match. That's how it goes. 1:39:47.320 --> 1:39:51.360 That's how it goes. Chris Buck love the show. I'm 1:39:51.360 --> 1:39:54.320 slow so it took me a bit to realize. Oh okay, Chris, 1:39:54.360 --> 1:39:57.400 thanks so much. Man covid has now replaced climate farce 1:39:57.880 --> 1:40:00.680 as a means of establishing nearly full so control. Oh. 1:40:00.720 --> 1:40:02.519 I think he slowly realized that, not that he loves 1:40:02.520 --> 1:40:04.360 the show now and now I get it. I was like, okay, 1:40:04.360 --> 1:40:05.599 if it takes you want to love the show. As 1:40:05.600 --> 1:40:07.280 long as you love the show, I'm happy. Clearly the 1:40:07.320 --> 1:40:11.800 host will slow to realize things too. Wow, it's like that. 1:40:12.200 --> 1:40:15.360 It's like that. You guys could all read you guys 1:40:15.400 --> 1:40:17.240 should write it now and tell producer Mark he has 1:40:17.280 --> 1:40:20.160 to be nice to the host anyway. It gives them cover, 1:40:20.240 --> 1:40:22.960 since even one life loss is too many, except of 1:40:22.960 --> 1:40:25.880 course baby booh gosh, baby butchering, which is life saving 1:40:25.880 --> 1:40:28.080 to them. If this doesn't wake people up, nothing short 1:40:28.120 --> 1:40:31.200 of a police state will even then it will take years. Yeah, 1:40:31.200 --> 1:40:33.880 I know they've they've there's been an ideological shift toward 1:40:33.960 --> 1:40:40.000 lockdown and the collective lockdown. The collective is lockdown consensus 1:40:40.040 --> 1:40:42.120 that this this can give them everything that they normally 1:40:42.200 --> 1:40:45.599 want and can't achieve through legislation or through constitutional means. 1:40:45.960 --> 1:40:48.240 There has been that shift that has occurred, So we 1:40:48.280 --> 1:40:49.960 need to keep that in mind. We need to remember that. 1:40:51.120 --> 1:40:54.160 Becky hey buck, how do we use a nation charge 1:40:54.200 --> 1:40:57.280 the governors with treason who are not opening up their states, 1:40:57.280 --> 1:41:00.360 holding people hostage and not letting our countrymen live free lives. 1:41:00.680 --> 1:41:04.200 They're withholding freedom from citizens. As you know, my state 1:41:04.240 --> 1:41:06.200 has been opening up in increments, but feel as slow 1:41:06.200 --> 1:41:08.280 as heck, and my states started opening the very first 1:41:08.280 --> 1:41:10.800 group of states that opened, we still have not been 1:41:10.800 --> 1:41:13.400 able to go shopping at a department store for necessities 1:41:13.400 --> 1:41:16.280 such as undergarments. Also, how the heck do we get 1:41:16.400 --> 1:41:19.880 Nancy Pelosi out cannot barely stand abiding in the same 1:41:19.920 --> 1:41:24.040 country with this lying, devious, more than privileged excuse for 1:41:24.160 --> 1:41:31.320 a house speaker, Nancy Pelosi, she's she's a master legislator. 1:41:31.479 --> 1:41:35.640 She's gonna just you know, she's Trump is Trump is 1:41:35.680 --> 1:41:38.680 the devil. And you know, I don't know, man, how 1:41:38.680 --> 1:41:40.439 do you get rid of Pelosi? You know, tell the 1:41:40.479 --> 1:41:44.320 Libs to stop voting for the worst person ever. And treason, 1:41:44.320 --> 1:41:45.760 as you know, is giving aid and comfort to the 1:41:45.840 --> 1:41:48.080 enemy under law, So you can't get any these people 1:41:48.080 --> 1:41:52.920 for treason. And you know, I think that um, some 1:41:53.360 --> 1:41:57.719 are not opening the states up because they are really 1:41:57.760 --> 1:41:59.519 really worried. But a lot are not opening them. And 1:41:59.560 --> 1:42:02.559 I mean this citizens as well as leadership and political leadership, 1:42:02.760 --> 1:42:04.400 but a lot are also not opening it up. I 1:42:04.439 --> 1:42:09.720 think for the political reasons of control and economic suppression. 1:42:10.560 --> 1:42:13.120 Right an economic suppression is in a sense very much 1:42:13.120 --> 1:42:16.679 tied to control, because if you continue to suppress this economy, 1:42:16.720 --> 1:42:18.679 it means that you will be able to rest control 1:42:18.760 --> 1:42:23.240 away from Trump and have control yourself. That see word 1:42:23.360 --> 1:42:26.559 keeps coming up for a reason. It's very central to 1:42:26.640 --> 1:42:32.080 the left's thinking. The Libs are obsessed with it. You're 1:42:32.120 --> 1:42:34.800 in the freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sex and 1:42:34.880 --> 1:42:42.200 Show podcast more roll Call here. Jonathan writes, Hey, Buck, 1:42:42.280 --> 1:42:44.599 if it makes you feel better. No one can whistle 1:42:44.720 --> 1:42:48.840 with a mask on Producer Mark. I think that's probably true, 1:42:48.920 --> 1:42:51.519 isn't it. Maybe they can and you just can't hear 1:42:51.520 --> 1:42:53.800 it as much, right, but so it would be a 1:42:53.800 --> 1:42:56.320 stifled whistle. But can you even I feel like it 1:42:56.360 --> 1:42:59.000 would be difficult, would be you know, I mean not 1:42:59.040 --> 1:43:01.280 that I'm good at whistling, like actually can't whistle. But 1:43:01.280 --> 1:43:05.000 that's not why I hate it. Whistling is an auditory 1:43:05.160 --> 1:43:10.240 violation and it's terrible. No whistling, I know. See, I 1:43:10.320 --> 1:43:12.000 knew he was gonna do that. He's just being he's 1:43:12.040 --> 1:43:14.479 just being mean. Now he's you know, Prucer Mark is 1:43:14.520 --> 1:43:16.720 just running around spiking the football in the end zone 1:43:16.720 --> 1:43:18.920 with his whistle at the end of the show because 1:43:18.960 --> 1:43:20.879 he knows I'm happy that we got through another fantastic 1:43:20.880 --> 1:43:23.080 show and so he can get away with his nonsense today. 1:43:23.439 --> 1:43:24.960 But you know, it's as long as you never do 1:43:25.040 --> 1:43:26.800 and I'm don't do this one on the show because 1:43:26.840 --> 1:43:30.200 people people will their ear drums will explode, or at 1:43:30.240 --> 1:43:32.120 least mine will. The thing where people put the fingers 1:43:32.120 --> 1:43:33.840 in the mouth though in the football stadiums that I 1:43:33.880 --> 1:43:36.200 don't know. I can't even do that. The person that 1:43:36.320 --> 1:43:38.599 is near you does not want their ear drums blown 1:43:38.600 --> 1:43:40.400 out so you can make a stupid whistle sound. Don't 1:43:40.400 --> 1:43:43.880 do that, folks. I've happorting events too. It's just it's 1:43:43.920 --> 1:43:45.479 not that I mind the whistling, is just don't do 1:43:45.520 --> 1:43:47.840 it next to me. It's just super obnoxious because it 1:43:47.880 --> 1:43:49.760 really is only loud to the people right next to you, 1:43:49.800 --> 1:43:52.439 and it's super loud to them, and no one else cares. 1:43:52.800 --> 1:43:54.800 I don't know why people think that's cool. That should 1:43:54.840 --> 1:43:58.479 be banned, banished. It should get you like you should 1:43:58.479 --> 1:44:00.360 be treated like the person of Master Square arden who 1:44:00.400 --> 1:44:02.439 throws his hot dog on the floor, you know, in 1:44:02.479 --> 1:44:04.320 front of it or you know, I mean on the 1:44:04.320 --> 1:44:07.400 basketball floor or on the ice, yes, which is where 1:44:07.400 --> 1:44:10.080 they play hockey. See, I know some things. It's where 1:44:10.120 --> 1:44:13.479 they play hockey on the ice. True, you know, Producer Mark, 1:44:13.520 --> 1:44:15.280 I will tell you I actually tried, and I know 1:44:15.320 --> 1:44:17.559 it's on Disney Plus, so I will watch it. I 1:44:17.680 --> 1:44:20.920 tried to convince No Princess to watch Miracle, and you 1:44:20.960 --> 1:44:22.160 know what, you don't want to watch it because we 1:44:22.160 --> 1:44:23.720 were so tired that you wanted to watch the whole 1:44:23.720 --> 1:44:26.240 thing through. Okay, watch it. I'm excited for that, so 1:44:26.240 --> 1:44:28.400 we're gonna take a producer mark recommendation there. Instead, we 1:44:28.439 --> 1:44:30.519 watched the first thirty minutes of Diehard and fell asleep 1:44:30.720 --> 1:44:33.439 to Lula likes Diehard too, though she's into it. She's like, yes, 1:44:34.240 --> 1:44:37.200 die Hard, all right. Michael writes, Buck, I really liked 1:44:37.200 --> 1:44:39.479 your segment with Andy Dean. I used to listen to 1:44:39.520 --> 1:44:41.320 him on radio every day back in the day. Hearing 1:44:41.360 --> 1:44:44.679 two big brains discuss politics and policy is great content. 1:44:44.760 --> 1:44:49.160 She'll tie from Austin KLBJ. Austin, what is up. Great 1:44:49.160 --> 1:44:50.960 to talk to you, folks. Thank you so much for listening. 1:44:51.040 --> 1:44:53.599 I really appreciate that we've had a lot of growth 1:44:53.600 --> 1:44:55.719 and team Buck Austin for the last couple of years. 1:44:56.040 --> 1:44:58.840 And KLBJ is a fantastic station and we're honored to 1:44:58.840 --> 1:45:03.280 be affiliated with it. As for Andy Deane Andydine and 1:45:03.320 --> 1:45:05.559 I become friends over the years. He's a really sharp guy, 1:45:05.680 --> 1:45:09.640 really smart dude, and we just get along. And you know, 1:45:09.720 --> 1:45:11.800 he was a very solid radio host in his own 1:45:11.880 --> 1:45:13.960 right when he was on the air, and you know 1:45:14.000 --> 1:45:16.400 now he's been doing more entrepreneurial business stuff, but he 1:45:16.400 --> 1:45:18.439 occasionally does some commentary. He used to go and see 1:45:18.439 --> 1:45:20.200 an n a fair amount as a Trump surrogate back 1:45:20.200 --> 1:45:23.720 in back in twenty sixteen. And you know, Andy and 1:45:23.720 --> 1:45:27.000 I we just look, he's he's smart, no stuff, and 1:45:27.120 --> 1:45:29.480 we respect each other and we get we have good conversations. 1:45:29.520 --> 1:45:32.040 And so I got nothing but high fives and good 1:45:32.040 --> 1:45:34.240 feelings about Andy and anything I can do to help 1:45:34.320 --> 1:45:36.120 him here, and we're gonna get him on the show more. 1:45:36.160 --> 1:45:38.479 I mean, he's somebody that I think should be his 1:45:38.560 --> 1:45:43.760 voice should be heard by more folks. Rob, Right, So 1:45:43.800 --> 1:45:46.360 you missed the most obvious flaw in cuomos. You might 1:45:46.439 --> 1:45:49.040 kill someone if you don't wear a mask. Speech. If 1:45:49.080 --> 1:45:51.400 I go on in public without a mask and someone dies, 1:45:51.720 --> 1:45:54.920 they were almost certainly at risk. So if they are out, 1:45:54.960 --> 1:45:58.520 they put themselves at risk, not me. I say, mandatory 1:45:58.560 --> 1:46:01.760 masks at essential places like the supermarket anywhere else you 1:46:01.880 --> 1:46:07.559 go there, you take your chances, Rob, interesting theory. Thank 1:46:07.600 --> 1:46:10.680 you for writing in Edmund. So it's been shown that 1:46:10.800 --> 1:46:13.320 using antibodies from people that had COVID nineteen to cure 1:46:13.360 --> 1:46:16.200 COVID nineteen works. Why can't the government pay people with 1:46:16.240 --> 1:46:18.519 anibodies to donate their blood for making these cures? Several 1:46:18.520 --> 1:46:21.400 million people have the antibodies now, Edmund, I don't think 1:46:21.400 --> 1:46:25.080 it's that clear and that effective. I think it's considered helpful. 1:46:25.520 --> 1:46:29.120 This is also the fancy way of saying it's convalescent plasma, 1:46:29.400 --> 1:46:31.960 but it's just antibodies in the blood being pulled out 1:46:32.000 --> 1:46:35.360 and given to somebody else. If you're really too far gone. 1:46:35.439 --> 1:46:36.920 Part of the problem is by the time people get 1:46:36.960 --> 1:46:39.080 to the hospital, they're often too sick and too far 1:46:39.120 --> 1:46:41.800 gone for really any treatment to be very effective. And 1:46:41.960 --> 1:46:44.240 other people who aren't that far gone aren't that sick. 1:46:44.720 --> 1:46:47.080 It's hard to tell if they're getting better because of 1:46:47.120 --> 1:46:48.880 the treatment or if they were going to get better anyway. 1:46:49.680 --> 1:46:53.320 But Edmund, I do appreciate you writing in and sharing 1:46:53.439 --> 1:46:55.920 thoughts on this one. And let's save the red. We've 1:46:55.920 --> 1:46:59.439 got some more great roll calls here. Let's say those 1:46:59.439 --> 1:47:02.200 for tomorrow. We've got some fantastic guest lineup for tomorrow too, 1:47:02.200 --> 1:47:04.839 so it's gonna be a great show. My friends. Please 1:47:04.880 --> 1:47:08.000 do pass the buck. Tell somebody just do me a favor. 1:47:08.080 --> 1:47:09.840 It really is a favorite, and I really do appreciate it. 1:47:09.880 --> 1:47:12.639 Tell someone you know, text them, email them, send them 1:47:12.640 --> 1:47:14.120 a link to the buck Sex and show. Say you 1:47:14.240 --> 1:47:16.680 gotta listen to this guy on radio. It's really worthwhile. 1:47:17.120 --> 1:47:19.639 That is my early Christmas and Birthday present this year, 1:47:20.080 --> 1:47:22.559 so for me and producer Mark, although for him it's 1:47:22.560 --> 1:47:24.479 a Hanakah present, but that's you know, you guys already 1:47:24.520 --> 1:47:26.920 know that, all right, everyone, thanks so much for listening. 1:47:27.160 --> 1:47:27.759 She'll tie
