1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show, 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: Wednesday edition. Eight point five percent inflation. That's the month 4 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,639 Speaker 1: of July number that came out this morning. It's down 5 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: from nine point one percent in June. Yay, Do you 6 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: feel so much richer? Do you feel like? Man, my 7 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: trip to the grocery store, I couldn't believe how much 8 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: money I was saving. I'm just walking around slapping my 9 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: butler with one hundred dollar bills, dressed like the monopoly man. 10 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: That's amazing. I gotta I gotta tell you. Even the 11 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: New York Time yesterday they had an article about how 12 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: expensive pizza was getting in New York City, and I thought, oh, 13 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: pretty soon that scooters getting stolen from Buck again, these 14 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: these high inflationary times, I don't know what might happen. 15 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: So inflation eight point five percent. I'm gonna play you 16 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: a clip of Joe Biden saying it's zero percent. Because 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: they continue to try to redefine what words are. What 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: is a woman? What is recession? What is a raid? 19 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: What is inflation? They lie, they lie, and they lie, 20 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: and along the way some of you are looking around 21 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: like man I they're literally changing the definition in the 22 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: dictionary of words to suit their political aims. Not to 23 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: mention the continued fallout over the raid on Donald Trump 24 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: at Mara Lago. And first, Buck, I want to play 25 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: just because it's eight point five percent inflation, I feel 26 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: like we should let people know what the Biden administration 27 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: is trying to spin out there. And then we're going 28 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: to talk about the continued fallout, which I think has 29 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: rallied people around Donald Trump, the likes of which we 30 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: have not seen in years years. But first they tried 31 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: it out. Old Joe put it in the talleprompter for 32 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: him to read, and he said, today we received news 33 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: our economy had zero percent inflation in the month of July. 34 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: Zero percent. This is real. This is the talking point 35 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: that the White House is trying to sell. Listen, I 36 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: want to say a word about the news that came 37 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 1: out today relative to the economy. Actually, I just want 38 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: to say a number. Zero. Today we received news that 39 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: our economy had zero percent inflation in the month of July. 40 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: Zero percent. Here's what that means. Well, the price of 41 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: some things go up. Went up last month. The price 42 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: of other things went down by the same amount. The 43 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: result zero inflation last month, but people were still hurting. 44 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: But zero inflation last month. Can I ask you question, Clay, 45 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: is he so dumb that he actually thinks this is true? 46 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: Or is he so shameless that he's saying something that 47 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: is obviously untrue to people? Because that's who we is. 48 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: He's lied about plenty of things and he thinks he 49 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: has no choice. Which one? I feel like you can 50 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: make a case for either. Which one do you think 51 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: it is? It is a really interesting question, And sadly, 52 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: I think Joe Biden's ability to even understand what he's 53 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: doing and saying from one moment to the next is tenuous. 54 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: So I think, unfortunately, as many people who are dementia 55 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: laden or in the stages of dementia, some moments you 56 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: can have a conversation with them and you can think, oh, 57 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: they're pretty sharp, Oh they seem to be following it, 58 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: and then you just get a sentence where you're like, man, 59 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: they really don't know what's going on here. And it's sad. 60 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: I know virtually every person out there listening to us 61 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: right now has had a loved one, a friend that 62 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: they have seen go through this, and so Buck, I really, 63 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: I mean I was watching the clip of Joe Biden. 64 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw it, and I'm sure a lot 65 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: of our audience did, of him landing in the helicopter 66 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: and coming back from Kentucky. I guess it was Tuesday, 67 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: and he couldn't put on his suit coat getting off 68 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: of the helicopter. And then yesterday, well, I guess it 69 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: was Monday coming back in the suit coat. Yesterday, Tuesday 70 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: he had the press conference with Senator Schumer, and Buck, 71 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: did you see him shake Schumer's hand? And then Schumer 72 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: went down the line and shook everybody's hand, probably five 73 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: six seconds, and he came back in the direction of 74 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. And it was as if Joe Biden didn't 75 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: realize he had already shaken his hand, because he put 76 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: his hand out again. So to your point, I really 77 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: think they're drugging this guy up, popping him up with 78 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: whatever they need. Remember the video that he put out 79 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: where his eyes were bugging out of his head, and 80 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: then they put him in shades after that, potentially because 81 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: they knew that it looked so ridiculous. I think they 82 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: put it in the prompter and he reads it, and 83 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 1: so I don't even think he's conscious of the arguments 84 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: very often that he's making. Now. I do believe if 85 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: you put that the Inflation Reduction Act, he's gonna cut 86 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: eleventy billion dollars. Yeah, I think I think he'd read. 87 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: I think he'd read eleventy billion dollars off the prompter 88 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: and probably not think twice about it. They are shameless 89 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: about all of this because I also think that if 90 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: you had Democrats in a moment of honesty and it 91 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: was is a clearly not of sound mind, too old 92 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: for the job, Biden still better than any Republican alternative. 93 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 1: And I'm not even just Trump, any republican alternate thought 94 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: so yes, because it's about a figurehead, it's about power, 95 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: it's about the individual. What's up? Cheney would say, yes, yeah, 96 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: so well, former soon to be former congress Person Liz Cheney. 97 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: She's gonna lose. I think what it is about a week, 98 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: but it Democrats view it as the presidency is really 99 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: just about a baton of power now and as long 100 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: as their team has it, they're happy. The actual president himself. 101 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: They've given up on this. They got used to it 102 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: being really a lot about president in the Obama era, 103 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: because they were so excited about him and they thought 104 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: he was the most brilliant, amazing, wonderful politician in the 105 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: history of the planet. Now it's just as long as 106 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: our team is in charge and you have Democrats in 107 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: the various agencies at the top and appointees, and that's 108 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: all that really matters to them. So I don't even 109 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: think that there's there's not even a sense of shame 110 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: that they have about what you're talking about, which just 111 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: does Bond even know what's going on. And it's fascinating 112 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: as well. I mean, eight point five percent inflation. They're 113 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: celebrating this, just so everyone's clear, they are selling the 114 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 1: real number is inflations at eight point five percent. It 115 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: did not go up in the month of July. It 116 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: went down a little bit. So this is a little 117 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: bit like saying, you know, if you're one hundred thousand 118 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: dollars in credit card debt and now you only are 119 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,799 Speaker 1: ninety thousand dollars in debt, yeah, out of the woods? 120 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: Not really? Yeah, And would you have ever believed we'd 121 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: be at a position where eight point five percent inflation 122 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: is a victory lap for Joe Biden and Democrats. It's 123 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: eight point five percent increase off last year, and they're 124 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: trying to argue at zero percent month to month. But 125 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: that's not even accurate because all of you who are 126 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: going out are paying prices predicated on what you paid 127 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: last year, right, So when you're going out in the numbers, 128 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: I think I've screenshotted one of the data points from 129 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: the July inflation numbers. It's pretty wild how much some 130 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: of these prices are up. And so the fact that 131 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: they didn't go up a little bit more doesn't feel 132 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: like a victory to your point, buck, when you're one 133 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars in debt, If the next month you're 134 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: still one hundred thousand dollars in debt, that ain't a 135 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: great feeling, you know. I mean, you've still got the debt. 136 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: And I don't know when we factor in the nearly 137 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: eight hundred billion dollars in expenditures, I don't know how 138 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: we're not going to have massive inflationary pressure moving through 139 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: the rest of the fall and in the next year. 140 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: There's a brazenness with the way this administration operates. They've 141 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: really gotten used to a clay. They'll they'll call it 142 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: the inflation Now. I know that's Congress, but Biden's got 143 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: to sign it. He's obviously involved in the discussion about 144 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: the naming of it. The Inflation Reduction Act is not 145 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: going to reduce inflation, actually increases it, according to most 146 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: economic experts. And so the primary promise of this is 147 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: false and they just don't care. It does not matter 148 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: to them. You know, are are we in an economic downturn? 149 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: We had two quarters of negative GDP? We're not in 150 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: a recession. Well that's always what we thought a recession 151 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: was before. Well, welcome to Biden world. The recession has changed, folks. 152 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: The recession will not be televised. So here we are 153 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: with people who change words, change definitions. Because the case 154 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: that they would make the American people, I think if 155 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: they looked at them, if they had to do it 156 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: on the merits is very weak. I mean, Parao, people 157 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: shouldn't think about what is Biden saying this month versus 158 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: last months. It should be what was the promise that 159 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: he made? What was the Biden campaign based on? And 160 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: what have we actually seen? Well, and there's a great 161 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: story out from Politico. I know we've discussed a lot 162 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: the challenges that we're seeing in some of these Senate races. 163 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: As we come down, I think it's fair to say 164 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: the proverbial home stretch here certainly post a Labor Day, 165 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: when everybody's summer vacations are over and all the kids 166 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: are back in school, football's back, I mean, we'll officially 167 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: be in campaign season. But there are some numbers I 168 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: was reading from Politico this morning. I think Laura Ingram 169 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: shared it early this morning. There are Biden districts that 170 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: he won by fourteen and fifteen points in Oregon, for instance, 171 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: where there are Republicans that are up right now, so 172 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: we know what happened with Myra Flores and down on 173 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: the border with how much she swung a district that 174 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: had voted for Joe Biden. We're talking about some of 175 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: these very blue states in Oregon, twenty point swings that 176 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: exist right now in the polling out there. And the 177 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: discussion in the political article that I thought was intriguing 178 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: was how many different places that theoretically are safe district's 179 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: buck where Democrats are acknowledging that they're going to have 180 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: to spend fairly substantial dollars And did you see we 181 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: got so close to iohan Omar almost lost her Democrat 182 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: primary last night in Minnesota. I mean I think she 183 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: won by like two thousand votes. The ideology of the squad, 184 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: the progressive Democrats in the House is a political liability 185 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: now that we've seen enough of what that actually put 186 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: into practice, whether it's defund police, a whole range of issues, 187 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: but specifically on that one, it is a political liability 188 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: for the Democrats. Now they understand that now, So sure, 189 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: you know, AOC will continue to get She'll continue to 190 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: be reelected in a overwhelmingly Democrat district in Queens, New York. 191 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: But for anybody who's in a tough race, they're they're pretending, now, oh, 192 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: that's not that's not the Democrat party that I belonged to. 193 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: I belong to a Democrat party. About the You're gonna 194 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: hear a lot of work in, folks. You're gonna see 195 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: Democrats marching around going duck hunting for the first time 196 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: in places like you know, Missouri and uh and states 197 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: where there's a in Michigan, all of a sudden, they're 198 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: gonna be wearing camo clay. These Democrats were holding a 199 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: gun like it's a laser from out of space that 200 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: they've never seen before, because you know they're gun toting Democrats. 201 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: This is what always happens. They have to pretend to 202 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 1: be less Democrat in order to actually get elected. Yeah, 203 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: and the person who almost beat ilhan Omar five hundred 204 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: Twitter followers, she has three million. I just I it 205 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 1: would have been. I was watching that those election results 206 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: come in last night, and I think it ended up 207 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: fifty one forty nine something like that. And the guy 208 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: who was running against her was in favor of funding 209 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: the police. Is Democrat, obviously, but a sane one in 210 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: favor of funding police, a believer in business, a believer 211 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: in capitalism, and in that district she almost lost. And 212 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: it makes me wonder. I kind of wish Republicans had 213 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: gotten involved in that race, like we've seen all the 214 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: Democrats get involved in other races, because this guy had 215 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: virtually no money. Imagine if somebody had spent five hundred 216 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 1: thousand dollars on his behalf. I think elan Omar may 217 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: well have lost. Come back to more on this and 218 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: certainly the latest updates on what happened at Marlago. For 219 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: anybody who is making the case, just wait for the facts. 220 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: Let's see what the FBI has trust the process, Clay, 221 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: we know it is not looking good. For that point 222 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: of view. This is very much lining up to be 223 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: the political intimidation Stazi like raid that we had anticipated. 224 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that coming up here in just 225 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: a moment. In spite of a recession and all the 226 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: inflation we're experiencing, homes are still selling my friends, and 227 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: home buyers still want to find the home of their dreams. 228 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: The home real estate market might be slowing down a bit, 229 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: but home buyers and sellers are still finding one another 230 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: at breakneck speeds. If you're a home buyer you want 231 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: to pre qualify for a mortgage, you'll be that much 232 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: more attractive to a home seller if you are.

Welcome back. I'm 248 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: Bucky's Clay and you may not have heard much about 249 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: this because a lot of other things going on. The 250 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 1: Remained in Mexico policy has been officially ended by the 251 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: Biden administration, So this is a moment where you have 252 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: to say hold on. The Trump administration figured out a 253 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: way to bring down the numbers of illegal migrants coming 254 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: into the country, dramatically bring it down because they disincentivized 255 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: false or flimsy claims of asylum, because it's no longer 256 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: possible with Remained in Mexico. It would no longer be 257 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: possible if you're in that program to just be released 258 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: in the American interior and either never to show up 259 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: or maybe only show up for one hearing but not 260 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: the deportation hearing. So the scamming of the immigration process 261 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: is made harder by remained in Mexico. No surprise to anybody, 262 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure the IT administration has just announced we're done 263 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: with that. No more remained in Mexico. So the incentives 264 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: right now remain very high for illegals to break our 265 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: law and come into the country across the southern border. 266 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: Whenever journalists go down there and they ask the migrants, 267 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: why are you here, it's a combination of Biden promised 268 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: us we could stay, Democrats say that we're owed this, 269 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: so we all know what the calculation is in their minds. 270 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: So they're coming in unprecedented numbers. Will probably have the 271 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: highest number of illegal migrants coming into the country this 272 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: year that we've maybe ever seen when all said and done. 273 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: And so Governor Greg Abbott of Texas has gotten sick 274 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: of this because it is despite what the Libs pretend 275 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: and obvious drain on resources. It is also illegal to 276 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: deal with all of the migrants coming into the country 277 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: costs city and stayed budgets. So if the Democrats want 278 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: so many illegal migrants, and they obviously do, why not 279 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: put them in democ krat strongholds like New York and 280 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: Washington d C. New York City and Washington DC. Now 281 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: there has been some pushback on that because, like so 282 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: many other things we see, the reality doesn't line up 283 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: with what the Democrats had promised us. So there are 284 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: thousands and thousands of illegal migrants who are now in 285 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: the shelter system in New York City and the shelter 286 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: system in Washington, d C. They need welfare, they need 287 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: free medical care. That and it's amazing because we are 288 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: we're always told that illegal illegal immigrants in the country 289 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: are all just going to start companies and grow GDP 290 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be amazing, there's no downside at all. 291 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: But the Democrats are now complaining about having more illegal 292 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: migrants Clay and so this has pushed Mayor Eric Adams 293 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: to the point where he is now saying, and I 294 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: just wish he would focus on crime in New York 295 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: and just you know, stop, you know, stop doing the 296 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: celebrities focus on crime instead of trying to depose Donald Trump. 297 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: He is saying that he's considering taking New Yorkers in 298 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: buses because there have been bust illegal immigrants sent to 299 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: New York from Texas. He who wants to take New 300 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: Yorkers in buses to campaign against Abbott already called all 301 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: of my friends in Texas and told them how to 302 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: cast their vote. And I am deeply contemplate in taking 303 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: a busload of New Yorkers to go to Texas and 304 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 1: do some good old fashioned door knocking, because we have 305 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: to for the good of America, we have to get 306 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: him out of office. I hope that he's kidding and 307 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: is not so stupid that he thinks that that would 308 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: do anything, But I'm not sure. Actually, I think he 309 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: may in his mind think that that would be that 310 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 1: sending a bus load of Democrat you know, live New 311 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: York activists to Texas is going to really threaten Abbott's 312 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: reelection prospects. Good luck with that one. Beato has really 313 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 1: kind of faded off the scene after his interruption of 314 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: the press conference in You've all day and you guys 315 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: know out there, I love looking at gambling markets. Right now, 316 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: Greg Abbott is an overwhelming favorite to be reelected in Texas. 317 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: So I love the message actually that Greg Abbott has 318 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 1: managed to create on a national level, because initially buck 319 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: this idea that he had of I'm gonna put illegal 320 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: immigrants on buses and send them to Washington, DC and 321 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: send them to New York City. I think a lot 322 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: of people thought, Oh, that's never going to get any attention. 323 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: There's no significance that's going to come from this. And 324 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: actually what you've seen is Muriel Bowser, the mayor of Washington, DC, 325 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: and Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City, buck 326 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: they've ended up begging for help because they can't handle 327 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: this influx of illegal immigrants. That's despite the fact that 328 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: they claim that they want to be sanctuary cities. And 329 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: what you're seeing is it doesn't take that at many 330 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants arriving to really throw into an uproar these 331 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: big cities like DC in New York. So to me, 332 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: it crystallizes what people down along the border in Arizona 333 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: and Texas have been arguing to us for a long time, 334 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: which is thousands of people coming across the border every 335 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: day is a really big deal in terms of our 336 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 1: ability to provide security. And I'll just mention we added 337 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: eighty seven thousand IRS agents. What's the total number of people. 338 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: I think it's like thirty thousand that work at the 339 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: border buck in an effort to try and restrain all 340 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: of that illegal immigration. Wouldn't you like to have seen 341 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: a lot more border agents to influence and implement our 342 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: laws as opposed to doubling the size of the irs 343 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 1: and a broader philosophical level too, Why if illegal if 344 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: people can be in the country illegally, and it's Democrats 345 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: now at at the top of the party gone down, 346 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: think that that's a righteous act, that violating our sovereignty, 347 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: coming into the country illegally, staying here illegally, and bringing 348 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: more and more people illegally, that this is a good thing. 349 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: Yet they want us all to pay these very exact 350 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: and onerous taxes, and if we don't, it's you're you're 351 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: a bad person. Maybe you should even go to prison. 352 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: So you can be in the country illegally, and that's 353 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: entirely fine, But if you mispay or under pay or 354 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: underreport your taxes, which has for any individuals, See this 355 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: is it's so interesting, isn't it. There's aggregate crime on 356 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: the one hand, there's aggregate crime on the other right, 357 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: Millions and millions of illegals, lots of people who aren't 358 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: paying taxes, but any one individual this is what they'll say. 359 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: You really want to send that one person back. So 360 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: the one illegal, they'll say, should be able to stay here. 361 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: But if you don't pay your taxes, even though it 362 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: has zero impact on the federal budget and has zero 363 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: impact on any other Americans actual life, but they have 364 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: to send them message that the law is the law, 365 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: they'll send your butt to prison. So when does the 366 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: law count and when does it not count? That's what 367 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: I want to know. I just continue to point out too, 368 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: the US open up in your neck of the woods 369 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: in New York City's about to start soon. Novak Yokovic 370 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: could cross the border illegally and come right into America 371 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: without having to get tested at all for COVID and 372 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: theoretically get on one of those buses that Greg Abbott 373 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 1: is driving up to New York City and legally, at 374 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 1: least according to Eric Adams, everybody else be in the 375 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: United States. Why wouldn't he be eligible to play in 376 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: the US. I don't think he opened would. Let would 377 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: say that based on the laws that are in play 378 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: right now, you don't have to take a COVID test 379 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: in order to cross our southern border. I just think 380 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: it would be amazing. If Novak decided, Hey, I'm gonna 381 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 1: come into America for the US Open, I'm gonna try 382 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: to increase my may. They won't let me fly in 383 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: because I'm not getting the COVID shot. That's stupid. But 384 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: if I walk across the southern border illegally, they'll probably 385 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: let me in the country. And then I'm just gonna 386 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: head on it up to New York City. I got 387 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 1: my tennis racket in my backpack. I'm gonna go play. 388 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: It is really funny. I mean it's it would require 389 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: some legwork, require some effort, but the whole thing is 390 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: so stupid that it defies belief that we're even still 391 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: at this point where people the fact that we have 392 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: vaccine mandates for anything, for anything in this country related 393 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: to COVID is total madness. As now, it's it's apparent 394 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: beyond any real, any real argument or debate, because individuals, 395 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: if look, if it's COVID so scary, everyone should be 396 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: able to make that choice for themselves. But Djokovic, I 397 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 1: give him a lot of credit. Man, he's because he's 398 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: also for everyone. If you don't follow tennis, he's one 399 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: of the best that's ever played. Maybe the greatest tennis 400 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: player of all time. Some people would argue that, and 401 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: he's right at the edge of if he wins a 402 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 1: couple more majors, he'll be the greatest player by major 403 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 1: wins of all time. And he's risking a major win 404 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: because he doesn't want to get the COVID show. He 405 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: might well have won Australian Open, might well have won 406 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: the US Open, he's probably not going to be allowed 407 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: to play in either this year. According to STATISTICA, in 408 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: the last year of twenty twenty, this is the last 409 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: year they updated, there were nineteen thousand, seven hundred and 410 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 1: forty agents employed by the United States Border Patrol. So 411 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: we are in one year going to quadruple the number 412 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: of Border Patrol agents that they're currently are and we're 413 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: going to hire that eighty seven thousand IRS agents. I mean, 414 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: that's just wild to think about. Nearly seventy thousand more 415 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: new IRS agents than total Border Patrol members we have. 416 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: That's crazy to think about. All right, we come back, Buck, 417 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: I got a crazy story for you, and it's sad 418 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: and it's unfortunate and relates to COVID policy and kids. 419 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've heard this yet or not, 420 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: But I think it's gonna blow your mind, and it's 421 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,719 Speaker 1: certainly blew mine.

Not as much 444 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: the newer movies, but we've watched them all. Not probably 445 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: not a surprise when you've got three young boys in 446 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 1: the house. All the Star Wars movies. We've talked a 447 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: lot about the nineteen eighties movies on this program. And 448 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: greatest trilogy of all time, Clay, I'm gonna put you 449 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: on the hot spot here, sir, hot seat. Greatest trilogy 450 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: movie all time? Ooh, greatest trilogy movie of all time. 451 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: I would probably go the original Star Wars say Godfather, Yeah, 452 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: Godfather three killed the Godfather trilogy as being the greatest 453 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: of all time. I think I go Indiana Jones. Indiana 454 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: Indiana Jones is up there. I mean, I think Indiana 455 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: Jones and The and the Last Crusade is maybe the 456 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: greatest movie that's been made. And when I say that, 457 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: bull when I say that bold call, but I'm talking 458 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: about if you're six years old, you can watch that 459 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 1: movie and love it. And if you're eighty. I'm not 460 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: talking about like, hey, let's compare it to Orson Wells 461 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: back in the Day, to Citizen Kane or something like that, 462 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: but just pure and enjoyment. I'd also throw in Lord 463 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: of the Rings trilogy. You know, grow I read Tolkien 464 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: growing up and then the trilogy, and I remember, even 465 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: as a very young kid, thinking, how can this not 466 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: have been made into a movie already? Know? So, yeah, 467 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: that is a phenomenal trilogy. The Back to the Future trilogy, 468 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: back to the Future one and two. It's got a 469 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: little bit of the Godfather to it, because Back to 470 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: the Future three was much worse. But the Back to 471 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: the Future trilogy is really good. Point on all the 472 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: why I'm thinking about the trilogies. Here is Scott Perry, 473 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: who is a congressman member of the Freedom Caucus, was 474 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: on vacation with his family yesterday and he's at the 475 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: beach with his family and they show up FBI agents 476 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: do and demand that he answered questions, and when he refuses, 477 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: they take his cell phone from him. And when I 478 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: saw this story, this story also broke buck every day. 479 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: It's like stories break when I'm sitting in the carpool 480 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: line to pick up my son at the end of 481 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: football practice. When I saw this happen, my very first 482 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,120 Speaker 1: thought was, and I'm not kidding about this. It feels 483 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: like in Star Wars when you see Emperor Palpatine, who 484 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: is about to become the authority, evil figure taking over 485 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: the empire, say execute Order sixty six. Now Buck knows it. 486 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: I was texting with our producer Ali. She had no 487 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: idea what it was, but she asked her fiance Girard, 488 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: who immediately My wife is a big Star Wars person. 489 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: I was mentioning it to her. This analogy. It actually 490 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: fits kind of scarily in the and if you're not 491 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: a Star Wars person, Order sixty six was the Emperor, 492 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 1: as he's taking over complete and total power, says execute 493 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: all the jeties. Basically, everyone who had power to stand 494 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: up against the evil Empire was wiped out. Now Buck, 495 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: one of the greatest scenes of all time in the 496 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: Star Wars of spoiler alert, Yoda does not go down 497 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: in the Order sixty scones. I'll allow you to describe 498 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: for people out there what happened. Oh, the Yoda backflip 499 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: and double decapitation of his assassins is one of the 500 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: better moments I can remember from all the Star Wars movies, 501 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: and I do think a lot of a lot of 502 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: these pop culture these these pop culture moments that you 503 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: have in these really powerful films are really popular. Films 504 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 1: do come from some historical analogy. I mean, for example, 505 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,719 Speaker 1: were you a game with your Game of Thrones? Guy right? 506 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: So so much of Game of Thrones if you are 507 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: familiar with the War of the Roses uh in England, 508 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: and you're familiar with some of these Scottish and English 509 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: back and forth over Anyway, the Red Wedding has a 510 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: historical press, but the Order sixty six does remind me 511 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: a little bit of and I think it probably was 512 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: inspired by, though I'm just guessing the Night of the 513 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: Long Knives by Hitler back in nineteen thirty four, when 514 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: the SS just went in and took out anybody who 515 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: wasn't totally on board from within the the Nazi and 516 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: German political hierarchy. So it was it was a purge 517 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: within the power circle that existed. So it wasn't even 518 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, they were already purging people who and assassinating 519 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: people who were standing up openly. But these were in 520 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: some cases individuals who just weren't on board and no 521 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: off or we're a threat to Hitler's power. In the 522 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: Garden of Beasts book, highly highly recommend that I've read 523 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,719 Speaker 1: it as well. Yeah, and it remember, it builds up 524 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: to that, it builds up to the Night of the 525 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: Long Knives. That's essentially the the major moment over the 526 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: course of the book. But I just think it's so 527 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: interesting because what do they say in the newspapers the 528 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: next day, Oh, we were preventing. We were preventing political 529 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: violence and a coup, So we just had to make 530 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: some arrests. And you have to put arrests in quotes. Obviously, 531 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: when you start to define words differently, you say, what 532 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: is a woman? What is a recession? What is a raid? 533 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: What is a raid? And you are arguing that words 534 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: are being misused, if they in any way are a 535 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: negative factor associated with your political arm there is an 536 00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: element of totalitarianism that is at play. And as I 537 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: was looking at the Scott Perry not arrest but taking 538 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: a seizure of his phone, my thought was, just who's next. 539 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: They are executing what feels like a direct attack upon 540 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: the strongest members of the Republican Party who are standing 541 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: up to Joe Biden and his authoritarianism. And I just 542 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: want you to think about what the reaction would be 543 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: in the media buck if when Donald Trump was president, 544 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: the FBI had shown up and seized AOC's phone, or 545 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: if they had shown up and rated Joe Biden's house 546 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: and Hunter Biden's house. Every single Democrat media member at 547 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: the Washington Post, at MSNBC, at CNN, at the New 548 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: York Times would be accusing Trump of attempting to become 549 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: a dictator and using the FBI as his own personal 550 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: police force. I all would be saying that. I do 551 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: think that the double standard issue and the hypocrisy allegation 552 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: against Democrats, it is important as a baseline for our discussions. 553 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 1: But I think what we've also seen is they just 554 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: don't care treating that we pointed, we'll say what if 555 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: and they respond will Trump is an existential threat to 556 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: our democracy? Right? This is? And so maybe this is 557 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: a place we can turn into what we know about 558 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: the raid now, which is increasingly pushing in the direction 559 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: of what our first impulse was, which is this is 560 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: just a this is a political hit. And it wasn't 561 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: a tally Rand who said it's worse than a mistake, 562 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: It's a blunder. I think Democrats are now waking up 563 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: the reality that they are. You cannot trust their judgment 564 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: on anything. No one can trust their judgment judgment on 565 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: anything involving Donald Trump. And they did something here that 566 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: was really stupid. They have kicked the hornet's nest. People 567 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: are very upset rightly about this, and they don't. They 568 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: don't have a good explanation. They don't, and it's because 569 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: Trump emotionally crippled them. I mean, they still can't. I 570 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: think Merrick Garland really believes Clay that Donald Trump is 571 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: an existential threat to democracy. I think he thinks that. 572 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: I think he thinks that as well, Buck, And we'll 573 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: talk about this because I think at the top of 574 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: the next hour and on into the show we can 575 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: also open up phone lines. Buck. What I am seeing 576 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: is a rallying behind Donald Trump, the likes of which 577 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: I have not seen in years now running up to 578 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: the election itself. I think most people out there remember 579 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: the enthusiasm, the fervor, the amount of crazed wort that 580 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: existed for Donald Trump in November of twenty twenty. I 581 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: haven't seen anything like this in nearly two years the wind, 582 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: so to speak, behind the back of Donald Trump. I 583 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: think that to your point, Democrats massively overplayed their hand, 584 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: and reasonable people who may not even be huge Trump 585 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: supporters that are listening to us right now are saying 586 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: I've never wanted him to run more than I do 587 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: right now. After that FBI raid and buck there's reports 588 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: that some of the Trump's advisor said, screw it, go 589 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: right tomorrow, lago at this exact moment and declare that 590 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: you're running for president in twenty twenty four. He didn't 591 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: do it. He said times still not right, but it's coming. 592 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,399 Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot of people who maybe 593 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: weren't as excited to be on the Trump train who 594 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: are really pretty fired up right now. It's great to 595 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: see companies succeed at what they do. Look at Pure Talk, 596 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: the wireless company. They've gone up against the big guys 597 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,280 Speaker 1: in the space, AT and T, Verizon and T Mobile, 598 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: and there's succeeding. You know why, because they offer a 599 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 1: great service at a reasonable price, an excellent customer service. 600 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: It's that simple. I switch from one of those big 601 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: companies to Pure Talk never regretted it. I have world 602 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: class cell phone service, zero drops and fast data speeds. 603 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: And it's all at a reasonable thirty dollars a month 604 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: for the plan that I have. Compare that price to 605 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,919 Speaker 1: what you're paying now. When I switched to Pure Talk, 606 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: I kept my number and my phone.

He now knows his opponent. 619 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: He is Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin. We are number 620 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: one in Milwaukee. We appreciate all of you listening up there. 621 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: We know that you were going to give all the 622 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: support that you can too, Senator Ron Johnson and Senator Johnson, 623 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: Before we get into now knowing your opponent and the 624 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:25,399 Speaker 1: campaign that you are about to embark upon aggressively, what 625 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: was your reaction when you saw the news about the 626 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:35,919 Speaker 1: FBI rating Mara Lago, President Trump's private residence. Well, well, guys, 627 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: hope you're doing well. I wish I could say I 628 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: was shocked. I probably was a little bit, certainly outrage, 629 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 1: But on reflection, I guess this doesn't surprise me. Now. 630 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 1: I have been investigating the corruption within our federal garbment 631 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,720 Speaker 1: name seats for years. I've seen the corruption up course 632 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: and personal. God, I don't want to make this about me, 633 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: but the fact of is that the FBI provided me 634 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: an unsolicited briefing, a secure briefing, in August of twenty twenty, 635 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: the same month that we now know through whistleblowers that 636 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: they were hatching the scheme to downplay the derogatory information 637 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: on Hunter Biden and basically Deep six investigation. I knew 638 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 1: it was a bogus briefing. I knew it was a 639 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 1: set up, and of course it was because about nine 640 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,439 Speaker 1: months later they leaked that briefing to the Washington Post 641 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: to smear me. So so again, you know I investigated 642 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: the Hillary Clinton email scandal. Yeah, we're the ones that 643 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: released the Peter struct LEASA page tests. I investigated the 644 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: FBI for their corrupt investigation into the Russian collusion hoax. 645 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: I sub pointed the FBI. They slow walked it. They 646 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: really didn't give a squat um I was. You know, 647 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: we did everything we can to uncover. I know President 648 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: Trump was trying to declassifying information. Deep did dey classify information? 649 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 1: We never We have never seen a single page of that. 650 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: So I am well aware of the corruption at the 651 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: highest levels of the FBI and Department of Justice, within 652 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,760 Speaker 1: our intelligence agencies or remember that. Remember that one famous 653 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: text in December of twenty sixteen from Peter struct to 654 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: Lisa Page says, think our sisters, sister intelligence agencies. I 655 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: think our sisters are leaking like mad, scorned and worried 656 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 1: and political. They're kicking to over drive. I think they 657 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: revealed what they were going to be up to for 658 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: the next four years. And it's you know, now in 659 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: the sixth year of diversionary operations, corruptions, doing everything they 660 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: could could to destroy Donald Trump and you know Carde. Honestly, guys, 661 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: now they're now they're turning their attention to me, and 662 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: they're trying to destroy me. Senator Johnson, it's buck. Do 663 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: you think the FBI is fixable? People ask me, as 664 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: someone who used to work in the CIA, do I 665 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: trust the agency or do I trust the FBI? I 666 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: say no. Then they asked Mabel, what can we do 667 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: about it? And I say, well, Senator Johnson, what should 668 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 1: I say? Because I worry that these institutions are rotting 669 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 1: from the top down. I agree with you. I think 670 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: we need something on the order of a church commission 671 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: to look into all of these agencies. And again, I 672 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: don't say that with any kind of glee whatsoever. These 673 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: are institutions. These are departments and agencies that the American 674 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: people should have confidence in, whether we're talking talking about 675 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: the federal health agencies, where we're talking about our intelligence agencies, 676 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: our Department of Justice, the FBI. They have given the 677 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 1: American public no reason to trust them. Now I realized 678 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,359 Speaker 1: half the American public probably does because they're satisfied with 679 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 1: partisans in charge of all these agencies. But I mean, 680 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: just the outrage of what they did at Marlago. I 681 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: was listening to an interview with the Christina Bob one 682 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: of President Trump's attorneys. You know, she was talking about 683 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: how President Trump well become the FBI in earlier in June, 684 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 1: to take a look at what you think I've got 685 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: something here, you go take a look and see what 686 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: I've got, you know, a warrant, and you know, twenty 687 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 1: dozen vehicles or twenty vehicles and thirty FBI personnel is 688 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 1: what the estimate was. To show up as opposed to 689 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: working through his attorneys, and maybe the next step would 690 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: be a subpoena. But to show up with a warrant 691 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,320 Speaker 1: is so unwarranted, It is so uncalled for. It is 692 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,880 Speaker 1: just so outrageous. This ought to concern every American, but 693 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: we're so divided that it's it's only concerning about half 694 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: of America. Yeah, Senator, I don't know if you heard 695 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: rand Paul's comments where he said that Merrick Garland and 696 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: certainly future Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy has said 697 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: the same. This feels almost as if it is impeachable 698 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: in nature. Now we don't know exactly what the warrant says, 699 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: at least not yet, but Marek Garland made the decision 700 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: to allow his FI to investigate a former president and 701 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: a potential future presidential candidate in a manner that has 702 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: never occurred before in the history of the United States. 703 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: Doesn't the American public as a whole deserve to know 704 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: way more about his decision making? And isn't in general, 705 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: his position as Attorney General very much in question at 706 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: this point in time. I think it certainly should be. 707 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: I think Christopher Ray's position ought to be in question again. Again, 708 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: there's so much were already know, guys. Now, it was 709 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 1: my staff that uncovered the redacted the classified footnotes to 710 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: the Fiser report that completely contradicted the statement by Bill 711 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 1: Priestley of the FBI and the main body the Refoor 712 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 1: saying that the FBI had no idea that there is 713 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: any kind of Russian influence on the Seal dossier. But 714 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: they did, and it was revealed in the footnotes that 715 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 1: they redacted that they classified, and basically the FBI knew 716 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: as early as October twenty sixteen, certainly by January twenty 717 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 1: seventeen that absolutely Steele Dossier dossier was contaminated by rushing 718 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 1: disinformation out under Christopher Ray. As late as March or 719 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, they briefed the Senate Intel Committee saying that, no, 720 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 1: we think see dossier has integrity. So the FBI knew 721 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: all of this, The intelligence agencies knew these things, and 722 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 1: yet they allow the Mueller probe to continue. They briefed 723 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: the Senate Intel I mean, what else could you call 724 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: that other than corruption? And again we you know, Chuck 725 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 1: Grass and I start investigating Hunter Biolet, Hunter Biden, and 726 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: they briefed us in August, a couple of months before 727 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: we issue our report to basically take us off the trail. 728 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: Just being a Senator, Ron Johnson at Wisconsin Senator, what 729 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:47,280 Speaker 1: should the response to all this be for the American people, 730 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: but also for you and your colleagues in the Senate 731 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 1: if you do manage to get the majority going in 732 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,879 Speaker 1: after the mid terms? Here, what does accountability look like 733 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: for the abuse of the apparts by Democrats? Full blown investigations. 734 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 1: But the problem is they hold all the cards. So 735 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: when we've again I subpoena the FBI, I basically didn't 736 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,359 Speaker 1: get squat. I've been told by people in those agencies that, yeah, 737 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: you were slow off that they knew this administration was 738 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 1: coming to an end. They did everything they could do 739 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: end the Trump presidency and so always slow off. They 740 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: didn't comply with the documentary question the subpoena. But what 741 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: they always say is, oh, we can't give that to 742 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: you because it's under it is there's an active investigation. 743 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: It could harm our investigations. So again they hold all 744 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: the cards that they know where all the bodies are 745 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: buried figuratively speaking, they know what, they know, what they 746 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: need to hide, and they just don't give it up. 747 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 1: They are above the law, they are the law. As 748 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: why it's so unbelievably dangerous what they are doing and 749 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 1: what they have done. People need to wake up people, 750 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 1: you know, and on a non partisan basis, people have 751 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: to understand how dangerous this is when you have our 752 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 1: law enforcement agencies acting in this way, trampling on people's rights, 753 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: tramp on people's freedom, and being completely unaccountable. But guess what, 754 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: that's what they are right now. They are completely unaccountable. 755 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: Senator Johnson, I know you don't have an official opponent, 756 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 1: Given the fact that Wisconsin primaries were yesterday, what can 757 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: you tell us about your opponent and what do you 758 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 1: expect for this campaign? Season to look like, well, my 759 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,839 Speaker 1: opponent was chosen by the Democrat elite. He cleared the field. Yeah, 760 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 1: we had one of his opponents and spent twelve million dollars, 761 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden a couple of weeks ago, 762 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 1: he just stepped aside, as did everybody else. So, you know, 763 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 1: the Democrat party elite that they don't have much respect 764 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,280 Speaker 1: for Democrat gotistre in Wisconsin. They chose the most radical 765 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,799 Speaker 1: leftist okay, somebody who spent close to six hundred, six 766 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars having the state patrol show for him 767 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: around when he became lieutenant governor, somebody who incited the 768 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: conocial riots by by you know, falsely claiming that it 769 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 1: was a police vendetta against Jacob Blake. Again, these police 770 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 1: have been completely exonerated because Jacob Blake pulled a knife 771 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:16,839 Speaker 1: on him. She was trying to basically kidnap children. But 772 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 1: our lieutenant governor, my opponent, now basically said that that 773 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: was a vendetta by the police against this individual. Now 774 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: he is the most radical leftist of any potential opponent. 775 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: But now the mainstream media is trying to paint this 776 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,280 Speaker 1: guy is some kind of moderate who's going to peal 777 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 1: widely to to Wisconsin at the same time as they're 778 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: trying to paint me with every pejorative possible. I haven't 779 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: had an opponent, the guys. I've had the worst opponent 780 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 1: I've had in the mainstream media trying to take me 781 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: out for eighteen months, and you know, just behind President Trump, 782 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 1: I've been the number one target. I've been tormented, I've 783 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 1: been lied about. Everything I say has been distorted, and 784 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: it's not going to stop. It's going to continue over 785 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,479 Speaker 1: the next three months. So if you if you want 786 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 1: me to save the Senate seat, if if you want 787 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: me to do these investigations, let's face I've been the 788 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,320 Speaker 1: one leading to charge and investing the corruption of the 789 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: deep state.
