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 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome and everybody to the Wednesday edition.

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: Always happy when I get the day right of the

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. So we have a

5
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: lot going on to talk to you all about today. Obviously,

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: we'll dive in just a second here to the gas

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:28,479
Speaker 1: tax holiday situation. Is the Biden regime really gonna pull

8
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: this at the last minute and do everything that they

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: can to buy off the voters, which is really what

10
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: this is. It is it is a gimmick to borrow

11
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: a term from a Democrat administration. We'll dive into that

12
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 1: here in just a second. And we've also got more

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 1: updates on what happened at UV all day. We'll be

14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: discussing that with you in a little bit. Just say,

15
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: the details keep getting worse for the law enforcement response.

16
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: With more information comes more outrage unfortunately about what happened there.

17
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: We will discuss that with you. Also, some major US

18
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: cities are having a particularly high year for violence right now,

19
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 1: including New York and Los Angeles, after all time records

20
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 1: in places like Philadelphia and other cities last year. So

21
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: you're seeing cities that are having their worst years of

22
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: violence in a long time, and even some that are

23
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: having their worst years ever. And when you look at

24
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: some of the Democrat policies that are being pushed by

25
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 1: progressive prosecutors like Gascone and Krasner, I would say Boudan,

26
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: but he just got recalled. There's others that we have

27
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: to discuss, others that we have to talk about here

28
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: as well. That's an important story. We've also got Senator

29
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: Josh Holly joining us to talk about the gun control

30
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: legislation Senates pushed through here. I mean they call it bipartisan,

31
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: and it technically it is bipartisan. There's a whole lot

32
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: more to discuss here about how it's not really going

33
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: to do very much, if anything, I would say anything

34
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: that's good. It will also leave some open territory for

35
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 1: abuse of some of the regulations. And we've got our

36
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 1: friend Ian Miller, who is great on the topic of

37
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: masks not working and vaccines being overpromised. When it comes there,

38
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: he'll be joining us third hour two. So show is

39
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: racked and stacked, and I'm here, of course with my

40
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: main man, Clay. I'm still down in Key Largo, which

41
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: is quite a lovely place to be. Clay is in

42
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: Atlanta and Clay So the federal gas tax, Hollott, let's

43
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: just start with this. Even the gas CEOs who usually

44
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: you'll notice, they don't usually get into the political fray

45
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: because a lot of regulation. They just want to keep

46
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: pumping their oil, doing their business. I know there's obviously

47
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: lobbyists and such, but they don't speak out against politicians

48
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: that frequently. The Chevron CEO has said Biden basically doesn't

49
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: know what the heck he's talking about. Here is Biden's

50
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: response play clip one good question on the Chevron CEO's

51
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: complaint Today. He said that your administration has largely criticized

52
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: the oil and gas industry and at times has vilified it,

53
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: and that the administration would need to take a change

54
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: in approach in order to make progress. I'm reducing energy

55
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: prices and to increase supply. Do you have a reaction

56
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 1: to that, surf I didn't know if they get that quickly.

57
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: I mean, does it really think it's a time for jokes?

58
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: Clay people can't afford gas. The gas CEO is saying

59
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: the Biden regime is clownish and he thinks it's funny

60
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: here's what's going on. The Democrats know that nothing else matters.

61
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: All the distractions they're trying to throw up surrounding January sixth,

62
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: the potential impact as we go forward, surrounding whatever the

63
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: Supreme Court does with Roe v. Wade, All of it

64
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: is a big distraction that is not taking away attention

65
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: from eight point six percent inflation and how angry every

66
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: single person is when they go to pump their gas

67
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: and it's five dollars a gallon. That is every single time.

68
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: The essence of this, and the problem with the gas

69
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: tax holiday is it's not going to do anything other

70
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 1: than provide a short term show. And the biggest issue

71
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: the Biden administration has is all of the oil and

72
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: gas companies know that the Biden administration is opposed to

73
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: everything that they do and every aspect of their business.

74
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: So take it outside of gas. If you knew that

75
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: there was a government that hated what your business was

76
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: and they were suddenly desperate for your product because there

77
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: was a midterm election coming up, would you invest billions

78
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: of dollars in production when you knew that as soon

79
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: as they possibly could, they would cut your legs out

80
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: from underneath you and what was a profitable business would

81
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: rapidly decline in profitability because remember Bucket, wasn't very long

82
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: ago that we were talking about gas prices going negative.

83
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 1: Do you remember that, Like in March and April of

84
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: twenty twenty when everybody was supposed to stay at home

85
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 1: and all this oil was being delivered to the United

86
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: States and the price of a barrel of crude oil

87
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: actually went into negative territory because there was nowhere to

88
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,679
Speaker 1: store it and there was no consumption product in place.

89
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: That's what they're afraid of. They're afraid of creating a

90
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: situation where they're drastically oversupplying a market that is trying

91
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: to cut the legs out of the business that they

92
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,799
Speaker 1: are in the middle of. And so there's no trust,

93
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,799
Speaker 1: there's no reciprocity here, there's no reproachment, there is no

94
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: relationship because ultimately Democrats want oil and gas, anything other

95
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: than so called clean energy, to vanish and to vanish forever.

96
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,559
Speaker 1: And Biden is trying to make the oil and gas

97
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: companies responsible for the price of oil and gas, when

98
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: if he had allowed the full fruition of our production

99
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: from the first place, he wouldn't be going on bended

100
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: need of Venezuela, Saudi Arabia and Iran begging for them

101
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: to increase production so that we can replace what we're

102
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: losing in Russia. They don't have any plans, folks, not really.

103
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: At this point, it is down to gimmicks. You have

104
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: to wonder at what phase will Biden just decide to

105
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: send Biden stimulus checks even though we're going through a

106
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: terrible period of inflation, to effectively buy off as many

107
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: voters as possible at the very end here. And they

108
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: can't have it both ways either. You can't have the

109
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: Biden regime talking about a move that will bring down

110
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: gas prices and Biden doing everything he can on gas prices.

111
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: But it's not as fault that gas prices are high, right, Well,

112
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 1: no one's saying it's all his fault. Nothing at a

113
00:06:55,240 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: macroeconomic level is ever entirely the sitting president's fault. But

114
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: has he made it worse? Has he made the wrong moves? Yes,

115
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,239
Speaker 1: clearly obviously, everybody, including the CEOs of all the fossil

116
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: fuel energy companies, but also everybody who's had to pump

117
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: gas for the last six months. Nos. Yeah, this administration

118
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: has made things more painful, more difficult, and you know

119
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: you still, Clay, I love this. You've got like these.

120
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: The Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm can't help herself. John Kerry

121
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: can't help himself. They're going around here, You go here,

122
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: Graholm saying, yeah, look, things are tough, but what a

123
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: great opportunity while you can't afford to drive to work,

124
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: to transition to green energy. Place seven. We've got obviously

125
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: all of this upheaval, We've got the coming out of

126
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: the pandemic, we've got this obvious invasion of Ukraine on

127
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: the energy side, and we've got the moment to think

128
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: and act strategically about lifting up communities and building these

129
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: supply chains out and building out the installations in a

130
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: way that give everyone a chance to succeed. The sixty

131
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: four thousand dollars electric vehicle solution to five dollars gas

132
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: is maybe the most Marie Antoinette esque move of any

133
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: modern political party during our lives. Remember Debbie stab Now,

134
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: the Senator from Michigan, bragging about how she had driven

135
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: from Michigan to DC and she just kept driving past

136
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: in her brand new electric vehicle, all of the high

137
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: gas prices and ultimately what's wild here, buck is Barack

138
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: Obama actually pointed this out some time ago, that everything

139
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: about a gas tax holiday was a gimmick. He said

140
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: it back in two thousand and eight. And I would

141
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 1: imagine there'll be a lot of people playing this because

142
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 1: obviously Joe Biden was the vice president of Barack Obama

143
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: at the time that this was said. And guess what Obama,

144
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 1: at least on this scenario was one hundred percent right. Listen.

145
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: But for us to suggest that thirty cents a day

146
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: for three months is real relief, that that's a real

147
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: energy policy means that we are not tackling the problem

148
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: that has to be tackling. We are offering gimmicks when

149
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 1: we're offering the same thing that John McCain's offering on

150
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: the cheat. That means we're not presenting a truthful response

151
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: to the challenges that we face in America. We can

152
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: do better than that. This time. It's a gimmick. It's

153
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: a gimmick. Luck. I would love to hear Joe Biden

154
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: actually directly questioned on this. Of course it rarely happens,

155
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: but hey, your former president set a gas tax holiday

156
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 1: was a gimmick. Why was he wrong. I would love

157
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: to hear that Joe Biden's response to that, and that

158
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: they also know Clay where this is all heading. A

159
00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: Biden administration that has a Republican major already in the

160
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: House and even a slim majority in the Senate isn't

161
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: going to get any major legislation through. You're going to

162
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: hear a lot of class warfare stuff, and obviously depending

163
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: on the Republican candidate, there'll be a real focus on

164
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: you know, January sixth, all the things that we can expect.

165
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: But then it really turns into politically, this country after

166
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: the midterms is going to shift right into presidential election mode,

167
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: and it's there's not going to be some long holiday.

168
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 1: There's not going to be a honeymoon period of you know,

169
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: a year in between. We're going to be shifting right

170
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: toward and at that point, with Biden not able to

171
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: point to any achievements, and with all the pain that

172
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: we're seeing economically in this country, never mind all the

173
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 1: other dysfunction that we talk about. Legal immigration, worst it's

174
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: ever been, violent crime the worst it's ever been in

175
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: a number of cities a nationwide, the worst it's been

176
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: in decades. All these things just point in one direction.

177
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: And that is for the one thing that Democrats and

178
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 1: the apparatus are really responsive to, the imminent loss of power,

179
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: the massive loss of authority. That's where they're heading. And

180
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: so you're already seeing the desperation, right, I mean, come on,

181
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: a gas tax holiday is desperate. Honestly, Biden. Even tapping

182
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, it's not really what it's

183
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 1: for now. Politicians play games with things like this, but

184
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: that's supposed to be in the case of an embargo

185
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: or award. It's not just gas price a little high.

186
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: Let's buy off the voters a little bit. Let's tell

187
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: them I'm doing something. The thing that they could do

188
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: is encourage not just exploration, not just refining, Encourage fossil

189
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: fuel domestic production, and say we're not going to stand

190
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: in your way this year or in four years or

191
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 1: in ten years. We understand this is where the economy is.

192
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: They ideologically cannot do that. That is where the rubber

193
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: meets the road. Drill, baby, drill. I remember someone distilling

194
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: the question of what we should do when it came

195
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 1: to oil and gas, and that is exactly what should

196
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: be done. But you're right, when your entire party is

197
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: predicated on the idea of climate change as a destructive

198
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,559
Speaker 1: force that must be resolved, then the Green New Deal

199
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: energy policies mean you can't actually solve an energy crisis

200
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 1: that has emerged and is continuing to grow and is

201
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: probably going to lead to higher gas prices throughout the

202
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: course of the summer. And Buck, the discussion here is

203
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: about a gas tax holiday until September. Do you really

204
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: think they would end it in September or do you

205
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: think they would extend it to Oh, I don't know,

206
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: November tenth, maybe through Thanksgiving. Oh, we're going to give

207
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: everybody a little bit of a break. And I can't

208
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: even wait. We'll have to talk about this as it

209
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: gets closer to July fourth, more in earnest. Remember last

210
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: year when the Biden White House put out the statement

211
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,719
Speaker 1: that you were saving sixteen cents on your Fourth of

212
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: July barbecue over the year before thanks to the Biden

213
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: economic Those pork rib tasted so much better with the

214
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: two bits that I was saving or whatever. You know

215
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: that the twelve and a sixteen cents that you were saving.

216
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: We'll talk about this and more. And also you mentioned

217
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Got some great guests coming down the line.

218
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: But you know one person who is not requesting the

219
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: Donald Trump endorsement, Ron De Santis Politico with an interesting

220
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 1: story there about looking ahead and where we might be headed.

221
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, I want to tell you most

222
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: guys don't go shopping for shoes with a lot of frequency.

223
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: We just had Father's Day. How often do you need

224
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: to buy dad some new shoes because you don't like

225
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: what he's wearing. Buck and I just had our one

226
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 1: year anniversary. We both wore Wolf and Shepherd shoes to

227
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: the party because they combine the best of business with

228
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: the best of casual, a sneaker feel that also has

229
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: the look and class of a business shoe, and it

230
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: feels amazing. We wear the Crossover. Founder is a former

231
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: track athlete designer who brought athletic shoe innovation to dress

232
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: shoes again. They feel like a tennis shoe, but look

233
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: like a business shoe. That is absolutely fantastic. You will

234
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 1: love those full grain Italian leather on top athletic soul.

235
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: We wear Wolf and Shepherd's all over the place. You

236
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: can wear them walking around in a city. You can

237
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: wear them to a sporting event. Honestly, you can wear

238
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: them pretty much anywhere and you will class up the joint.

239
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: Right now, you can get yourself a pair at Wolf

Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show underway. Thanks for being here with us,

247
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: as always an honor of privilege and a pleasure to

248
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: speak you all across the country. Are you ready to

249
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: get your shot every year? And I mean every year,

250
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: and by shot I mean the COVID vaccine that they're

251
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: going to keep update. I know a lot of you

252
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: are shouting no, But the CEO of Visor he's got

253
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: a different plan in mind. We'll talk about this in

254
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: a second. We've been calling this out for now over

255
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: a year. This was going to be the plan. More

256
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: on this one, and yes we were right. Once again.

257
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 1: We're joined on this issue of where we stand in

258
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: the fight against COVID tyranny. By our friend Ian Miller

259
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: ofoutkick dot com. That's right. He went to work with

260
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: Clay at OutKick. It's a smart man. He also was

261
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: the author of Unmasked in its Clay being nice. Absolutely,

262
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: he's been great so far, been been thrilled. It's really exciting, fantastic,

263
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: expect nothing less. So tell me, my friend this. Actually,

264
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: let's have let's play the CEO of a visor Bordelaw

265
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: telling everybody, you know, yeah, shots every year. Let's let's

266
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: play that that audio. Do you think we're going to

267
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: get updated mRNA vaccines every season that will be directed

268
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: to each new variation of the coronavirus? And what we

269
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: have to take those shots every year. I'm almost certain

270
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: about it. And I say almost certain because of course

271
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: regulators have the final stay and all of that. But

272
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: that's the beauty of mRNA. You can adopt your vaccine,

273
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: us play change in the sequencing, which is a very

274
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: minor change. I mean, you've been on this all along,

275
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: doing great research. They're straight up telling us now that

276
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: afies or yeah, you'r mRNA shots forever. That's the plan, right,

277
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: And it's it's kind of absurd that he says it

278
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: that way, because you know, they haven't updated it so far,

279
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: even though we've had multiple different variants, and you know,

280
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: as we've seen sometimes there will be three or four

281
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: different variants that emerge in a year, and you know,

282
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: so he the thing is going to update three or

283
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: four times a year, he's supposed to go get three

284
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: or four shots per year, or is he going to

285
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: update for the first strain that emerges, which will then

286
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: be too late because we'll have two other ones by

287
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: the end of the year. You know. And on top

288
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: of the fact that the effectiveness of the vaccines has

289
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: clearly been waiting, and not just in terms of infection,

290
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: but in terms of hospitalizations as well. So it's it's

291
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: just kind of a certain it honestly feels like they're

292
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 1: just trying to sell more product going forward. Yeah, that's

293
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: the part ian that really jumps out to me. If

294
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: you had a federal mandate that someone had to buy

295
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,239
Speaker 1: a for profit product and that they had to do

296
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: it every year as far into the future as you

297
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: could see, wouldn't that raise a lot of red flags

298
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: for many people? And doors shouldn't it? In addition to

299
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 1: the fact that it's not working very well. An annual

300
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: subscription vaccine and vaccine as in quotation marks is probably

301
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: the best recurring profit margin that fiser could ever hope for,

302
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 1: given how large the addressable market is and how many

303
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: places are requiring that that market continue to buy that product.

304
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 1: I take it outside of just COVID shots. It feels

305
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 1: incredibly dirty to me that we're even in this situation. Absolutely,

306
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 1: it's hard to imagine a better business model than saying

307
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 1: we have to update our product every year, and the

308
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: federal government's going to mandate that you take it for

309
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 1: many you know, contractors or employers, government employees. On top

310
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: of you know, you see things like colleges that are

311
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: mandating booster shots for healthy eighteen and nineteen year old

312
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 1: college students. I've recently read about a story a Stamford

313
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: student was going to be banned from receiving his diploma,

314
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: banned from graduating because he refused to comply with their

315
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 1: booster mandate even though we'd already had COVID. And you know,

316
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 1: that's another aspect of this that has completely forgotten often

317
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: is that you know, CDC is as estimated, seventy five

318
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: percent of kids have already had COVID, and yet a

319
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: lot of schools are going to be mandating the full

320
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: series of vaccinations, then a booster, and now presumably boosters

321
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: indefinitely for kids that have already been exposed to COVID

322
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: and have some natural community and protection. We're speaking of.

323
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 1: Ian Mill of OutKick dot com also got a great book, Unmasked,

324
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: and he was the guy for any of you who

325
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: are on Twitter who was sharing out the graphs of

326
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: mask mandates all along and where they went into effect,

327
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 1: and how they didn't work over and over again. In fact,

328
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: they didn't work anywhere. And yet we still have people

329
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: I saw people today, Clay even down here wearing masks

330
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 1: that people are still voluntarily not under mandate. But the

331
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: Democrat Fauci apparatus still believes in this stuff. Ian, I

332
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: want to ask you also, what's your sense is about this?

333
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: From the very beginning of the COVID pandemic, we were told,

334
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: and it's become I think seared into our brains that

335
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: this was a once in a century pandemic. They spent

336
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: trillions of dollars. A lot of that money, as we

337
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: see now, was poorly spent, didn't actually help anything, and

338
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,719
Speaker 1: has created massive inflation. But Biden's out there telling everybody, well,

339
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 1: it's time to set up more spending for the next pandemic,

340
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: as if it's right around the quarter. Here's what the

341
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: here's what the Biden White House is saying about this

342
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 1: play that cut. Please eight, how many of the nation's

343
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,719
Speaker 1: kids will you be able to get vaccinated before you

344
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 1: need more money from timers? Well, we'll get through least

345
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: this year. We do need more money, but we don't

346
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: just need more money for vaccines for children. Eventually we

347
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: need more money to fan for the second pandemics. There's

348
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: going to be another pandemic. We have to think ahead.

349
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: So first of all, need more money for shots for

350
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,640
Speaker 1: kids that kids don't actually need based on the data.

351
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: And Biden seems very certain that the next once in

352
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: a century pandemic is right around the corner. Yeah, that's

353
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: it's very concerning to hear them say that. And of

354
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: course that money will be distributed to the same public

355
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 1: health bureaucrats and supposed experts that have completely failed during

356
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: this once in a century pandemic. You know that all

357
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: of the measures that they did, the interventions have completely failed.

358
00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: You know, That's what the book is about. It's all

359
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 1: my writing. A lot of my writing has been about

360
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: showing that all these things that we did that as

361
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: we're now experiencing, have had a huge tremendous unintended consequences

362
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: and side effects. They all failed. So in response to that,

363
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 1: which most people now universally kind of agree that it

364
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: was a failure, in response, we need to give them

365
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 1: more money to prepare for whatever next. Once in essentially

366
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: pandemic is coming. And that's a major concern that all

367
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: these measures that we seem don't work are going to

368
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: continue to be brought back in the future now because

369
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: the public health experts and democrats have decided they work

370
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: based off of no data whatsoever. Ian, you just mentioned

371
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 1: that seventy five percent of kids, based on data from

372
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 1: the spring, have already been exposed to COVID. Yesterday, kids

373
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: ages six months to five years old became eligible for

374
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: COVID shots, and again some of them are gonna have

375
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: to get three shots. This is, as you heard from

376
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: the Fiser CEO, potentially going to be going forward for

377
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: years to come. You wrote about the data at OutKick

378
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 1: and did a great job there. What would you tell

379
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: parents out there listening to us right now? The data

380
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: shows about the efficacy levels for six months to five

381
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: year old COVID shots given the fact that seventy five

382
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: percent of these kids essentially have already had COVID at

383
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 1: least right, well, I think the data is shown pretty

384
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 1: conclusively the natural immunity provides better protection against infection and

385
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 1: severe outcomes than the vaccines do for all age groups,

386
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: but especially for children, there's there's really been no benefit,

387
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: and the trials didn't even present a benefit. You know.

388
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: Their own estimates of vaccine efficacy for these age groups

389
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: was for the first like I think it was six

390
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: months to two years, was something like fourteen percent against

391
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: infection and then thirty percent against the severe infection for

392
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,719
Speaker 1: the slightly older age groups, So that would have failed

393
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: the initial standard that the FDA set. They initially wanted

394
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: fifty percent efficacy to emergency authorize a vaccine. This would

395
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: have for kids, but they approved it anyway, and because

396
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: they changed how they measured it by using something called

397
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: immuno bridging. I mean, it's it's really ludicrous, and they

398
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: try to justify it by presenting COVID as a leading

399
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 1: cause of death for these younger age groups. Except the

400
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 1: way that they measured this leading cause of death ranking

401
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: was completely misleading, which is what I wrote about Route kicked,

402
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: that they kind of conflated two different ways of counting

403
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: to make it appear that COVID is deadli or for

404
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 1: young kids than it actually is. So it's really it's

405
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: another concerning incident of the CDC kind of manipulating data

406
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: to try to get the outcome they want. And you know,

407
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 1: I preparents would be I would be very hesitant. You know,

408
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: we don't have a lot of great long term safety

409
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: data on this for this age group, and there really

410
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: was no significant benefit jump by the FDA we're speaking of.

411
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: Ian Miller of OutKick dot Com has a great book

412
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: on the failure of mask mandates called Unmasked. Ian, I

413
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: just want to know, based on you've been following the

414
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: COVID issue very closely for a long time now, and

415
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: it seems to me that when they're talking about vaccines

416
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: for kids, covidvaccines for kids and also omicron specific vaccines,

417
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: that we have to assume that it's going to be

418
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: a new then multiple dose right or if not, why not?

419
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: Because it seems to me that the vaccine that is

420
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 1: currently a proof for children is a three dose vaccine,

421
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: as I understand it, because the first two showed no

422
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 1: real efficacy whatsoever, so they said, let's just give him

423
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,959
Speaker 1: another shot. Well, if they're going to do an omicron

424
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 1: specific shot, wouldn't that then also likely be three mRNA doses?

425
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, won't we probably be facing

426
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: a non omicron new variant this fall again? If not?

427
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: Why not? Yeah, exactly, that's a great point. This series

428
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: is three doses, but it's based off the same vaccine

429
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: that they're giving to adults. I think it's different dosages,

430
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: but it's three shots. And then, exactly, as you say,

431
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: if they need to update a phramicron, is that going

432
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: to be another three dose series? And then for the

433
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: next variant, another three dose series after that. And again,

434
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 1: by the time they even get the almicron variant up,

435
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 1: there will likely be another new dominant variant that has

436
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 1: popped up. As we've seen, it moves very quickly with

437
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: the strains of the coronavirus. And so again it's it's

438
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 1: like we're doing we're trying to do something that doesn't

439
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: really have a demonstrable benefit for this age group who's

440
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 1: had an incredibly low risk for serious illness from COVID anyway.

441
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 1: I mean the COVID was something like twenty five times

442
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: less likely to cause death among young children than accidents.

443
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: But you know, and then down the road, we're going

444
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 1: to keep adding more and more shots to this series

445
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: when we don't really have any long term data on

446
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: it yet and we haven't demonstrated clear benefit. It's really

447
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,199
Speaker 1: to me, it's inexcusable that the I mean clay it

448
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: really is the sixth or the ninth or the twelfth

449
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 1: shot though, that will solve it forever. Yeah, Ian, you

450
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: wrote a great book about masks and how poorly they worked.

451
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: By the way, I'd encourage all of you go follow

452
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: at E. N. M sc on Twitter. He does a

453
00:25:54,840 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: fantastic job giving you data and analytics surrounding this by plays.

454
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: Buck basically lives on Broadway starting July, I do I

455
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: live above a Broadway theater? Essentially? Yes, yes, I mean

456
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 1: July first, they are going to end the mask mandate

457
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: on Broadway plays. Why in the world are they randomly

458
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: deciding to do this? And has there been any justification

459
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: whatsoever for wearing masks inside of Broadway plays? Based on

460
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: the data that you have seen across the country. Well,

461
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: of course not. And it's funny because you know, we've

462
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: had NBA events that are essentially the same thing, twenty

463
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: thousand people in an enclosed arena going on for months

464
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: with no negative impacts, with no mask required anywhere. I mean,

465
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: we just saw the NBA Finals with nobody wearing a

466
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: mask in any either of the venues, and it's it's

467
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: been kind of ludicrous that they've continued it this long

468
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: and this has been what they do. They've pick an

469
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 1: arbitrary date and it's like, oh, it'll be safe July first,

470
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: you know, why not June twenty eighth. Oh, nobody has

471
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 1: an explanation. What's also concerning, though, is that they said

472
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: that they're going to reevaluate that decision every month, So

473
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: you know, you could buy a ticket for a Broadway

474
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 1: show expecting to go to have it be mask free,

475
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: and then the next month they could decide, actually, we

476
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: need to bring it back now based off of nothing,

477
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: and then you could, you know, have spent three hundred

478
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: dollars on a ticket and be forced to wear a mask.

479
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: So it's another episode of this kind of ludicrous, arbitrary

480
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: thinking that these the mask canatics do, and it's it's

481
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 1: kind of crazy. No matter how much data accumulates that

482
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: there are still some segments of the population and just

483
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: can't give it up. He's Ian Miller. Were excited to

484
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: have him writing at OutKick. You can go check him

485
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: out at OutKick dot com. You can follow him on

486
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: Twitter at ian MSc. Appreciate the time a man, keep

487
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: up the good work. Oh thank you very much. You

488
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: know a lot of people out there have low test

489
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: toss toone. I was just watching the Democrats here as

490
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: Joe Biden comes trotting out to try to argue in

491
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: favor of a tax rebate, effectively tax cut for your gas,

492
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: and I thought to myself, you know what, we need

493
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: more natural testosterone in this country. Maybe then Democrats wouldn't

494
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:11,479
Speaker 1: be so afraid of their own shadows. And our guys

495
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,080

00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: in front of you. We went out to dinner recently

499
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 1: with the founder of Chalk, and he was talking about

00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 1: all of the impact that his product is having with

501
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,600

Speaker 1: can help to deal with what has become a fifty

506
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: percent drop in men's testosterone levels over the past fifty years.

Speaker 1: Klay Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging

520
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: out with us. We're rolling through the Wednesday edition of

521
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: the program and I tease this as we went to break,

522
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of discussion on this show.

523
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a reality. I believe

524
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 1: that Ronda Santis, governor of Florida, is going to be

525
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: running against Donald Trump for the twenty twenty four presidential

526
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: nomination on behalf of the Republican Party. And Politico has

527
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: a story that went up early this morning that Rhonda

528
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:20,479
Speaker 1: Santis is not asking for Donald Trump's indorsement in the

529
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 1: state of Florida, according to four people I'm reading from Politico.

530
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: According to four people connected to the governor and former president,

531
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: DeSantis has not asked Trump for a formal endorsement and

532
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: isn't planning to. It's a clear sign de Santis, who

533
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: more than four years ago was a little known congressman

534
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: from northeast Florida, has risen high in the gop stratosphere,

535
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: and they are expecting now that there is going to

536
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: be There's a New Yorker article we talked about it

537
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: that hinted edit had quotes from Trump. I think that

538
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: we are headed for a major battle between DeSantis and

539
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: Trump in twenty twenty three. As we run into the

540
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four presidential election, now things can still change.

541
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: Buck Rohn de Santis has got to win reelection in

542
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: Florida this November. His wife has been unhealthy. She had

543
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: breast cancer. Appears fortunately to have recovered from that, but

544
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: there are potential health considerations there. Trump is obviously over

545
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: the age of seventy five. He seems to be in

546
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: great health right now, but that's always worth mentioning two.

547
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: But it appears increasingly likely that that is going to

548
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: be a battle of Leviathans in the Republican Party for

549
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four's nomination. I feel like the rest of

550
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: the country is going to have to ask for Rhn

551
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: de Santis too. They got to ask Floridians to be

552
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: willing to part with their favorite governor because we got

553
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: audience is now listening Fla, Tampa, Iod, Miami, all up

554
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: the southern, all up South Florida, and then you know,

555
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: on the side of the west side hand handle world,

556
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: I mean everything, and we got a big on. Everyone

557
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: is the capital of the Republican Party now and both

558
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: these guys live there, and so it's just gonna be

559
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 1: a It's gonna be so interesting to see it. But

560
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: I know they don't want to give up their governor

561
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: and he's heading into to a presidential Well, let's be honest.

562
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: I mean, do they want to even give him up

563
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 1: to the to the White House, But certainly even to

564
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: a presidential election would be a big, a big shift

565
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: in focus that would have curled. I think people can

566
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: handle keep people do handle both those things. I just

567
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,479
Speaker 1: say this though, Clay, Um he's gonna win reelection. It

568
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: looks like in the governor's race in Florida, not by

569
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 1: a little bit, but by a major amount, and also

570
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:45,479
Speaker 1: will have changed the registrations of hundreds of thousands from

571
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 1: down a few hundred thousand to the Democrats to upstate

572
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: wide a few hundred thousand Republican. So we live in

573
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: interesting times, Clay, that is. I just don't want our

574
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: to be shocked by this coming battle. We want to

575
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: keep you up up data that I believe is going

576
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: to happen. These uncertain financial times are all too real.

577
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: You're seeing it everywhere. Rates going up, everything getting more expensive,

578
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: and the dollars you have in your bank account worth

579
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: less and less with each passing month. It's what inflation does.

580
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: So how can you protect yourself? How can you diversify

581
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: to make sure that you are maintaining as much of

582
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: the value you've worked hard to save up to this point. Gold,

583
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm talking about real gold and sober you can actually

Speaker 1: hold in your hands. I've been buying from the Oxford

592
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,959
Speaker 1: Thirty years this president murder or murder, suicide after suicide,

593
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: mass shooting after mass shooting, Congress did nothing. This week.

594
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 1: We have a chance to break this thirty year period

595
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: of silence with a bill that changes our laws in

596
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: a way that will save thousands of lives. It is

597
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: a compliment, It is a bipartisan compromise. It is a

598
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: path forward to the way that both Republicans and Democrats

599
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 1: can work together to address some of the most vexing,

600
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:30,240
Speaker 1: most difficult challenges this nation faces. We have a chance

601
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: to show parents and kids and families that we take

602
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: their safety seriously and we are prepared to do not

603
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 1: just something, but something that saves lives in order to

604
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: protect them. I would send a Democrat Chris Murphy on

605
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: the Senate advancing this bypartisan gun restriction legislation. What does

606
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: it do actually and why are they claiming that it

607
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 1: will save lives? In what way would this save lives?

608
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: And what ways would this perhaps create due process and

609
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:08,280
Speaker 1: even constitutional concerns. We're joined by Senator Josh Holley of Missouri,

610
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: who has a lot of thoughts on this and more.

611
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: Senator always, good to have you, Hey, thanks for having me,

612
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,879
Speaker 1: great to be with you. What do you think of

613
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 1: this legislation? And we were trying to talk about this

614
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: on the show and the last couple of weeks, and

615
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: it was always, well, it's a framework, there's no text,

616
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: and now did anyone even see this text before they

617
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,399
Speaker 1: voted on it. It feels like they did this one

618
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 1: behind closed doors and no one gets to know what's

619
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: going on. Yeah, that's about right, that's about right. It's

620
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,879
Speaker 1: weeks of closed door negotiations where nobody knows exactly what's

621
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 1: going on. And then yesterday, in typical DC fashion, they

622
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: dropped the bill eighty some pages into our laps and say, okay,

623
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: now vote on it. You know, it's just incredible, especially

624
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: for legislation as fundamental as this that touches and affects

625
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: every law abiding citizen Second Amendment right. So I voted

626
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: no on this and I'm opposed to it. What the

627
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: bill does, see answer your question a second ago, as

628
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 1: it pays states to set up programs to take away

629
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: Second Amendment rights from lawbyding citizens. By the way, that

630
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: includes nineteen states that already have these red flag laws

631
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: where you don't get due process before your guns are

632
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: taken away, where you can be accused and have them

633
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: taken away before there's any crime that you're accused of,

634
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 1: let alone convicted of. All of those states are going

635
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: to get money under this bill. They're going to get paid,

636
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: and all the other states are going to get paid

637
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: and encouraged to set up laws like this. So this

638
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: is not a bill that I can support, not by

639
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 1: a mile, and to me, it doesn't do anything to

640
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: address the real problem here, which is crime. In criminals

641
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,320
Speaker 1: who commit acts of violence with firearms, they're the ones

642
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,959
Speaker 1: who ought to be punished here, not lawbiding citizens. Yeah, Center, Holly,

643
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned that, because Buck and I have

644
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 1: talked about on the show that even if we were

645
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: able to eliminate every mass shooting in this country, which

646
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: certainly we would be in favor of, ninety nine percent

647
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: of violence would still be occurring. Why do you think

648
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: the conversation never goes to, Hey, let's put way more

649
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: cops back out on the streets and let's put violent

650
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: criminals behind bars for longer periods of time, two things

651
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: we did in the nineties that were proven to drastically

652
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 1: improve overall quality of life and reduce violence in this country.

653
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 1: And yet it's almost as if that can't be discussed

654
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: in any measure. Yeah. And the reason for that, Clay,

655
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 1: is the Democrats are pro criminal. I mean, that's why.

656
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: These are the people who think that we have too

657
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: many people in jail and that we have sentences that

658
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 1: are too lengthy, and that we ought to just let

659
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: folks out. And they're doing that, by the way, all

660
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: over the country. This is why we have a crime wave,

661
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: is because all over the country, soft on crime mayors

662
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: and governors and liberal das are out there not enforcing

663
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 1: the laws we're talking about violent crime. By the way,

664
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: we're not talking about petty offenses violent crime. They're not

665
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: enforcing the laws, and the Democrats don't want to, So

666
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: you're exactly right. What we ought to be doing is

667
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 1: putting more cops on the street, giving every cop in

668
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: America a pay raise, and we ought to be increasing

669
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: the sentences for violent offenders, including people who try to

670
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: bring a firearm to a crime and use it. But

671
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: that is exactly what they do not want to do,

672
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 1: the Democrats, because they don't want to actually get tough

673
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: on crime and criminals. It's just it's exactly backwards, and

674
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 1: that's another reason why I'm not going to support this legislation.

675
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: It doesn't crack down on criminals. It just goes after

676
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: lawbiding citizens, and I'm against that. Speaking to Senator Josh

677
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: Holley of Missouri, Senator, we never have enough time to

678
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 1: go through all of the crises that the Biden administration

679
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: is not only facing, but we argue day in and

680
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: day out here on the show has made worse in

681
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: some cases, has really created of their all through their

682
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: own doing. The gas situation right as Clay and I

683
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 1: were on are about thirty minutes ago, Biden spoke on

684
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: this and called on Congress to suspend the federal gas

685
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 1: tax play clip thirty two, going on Congress to suspend

686
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,359
Speaker 1: the federal gas tax for the next ninety days through

687
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: the busy summer season, busy travel season. Here's what that means.

688
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: Every time you go to the gas station to fill

689
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,760
Speaker 1: your tank, the federal government charges an eighteen cents tax

690
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 1: per gallon and gas that you purchase, and a twenty

691
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: four cent tax per gallon of diesel you purchase. It's

692
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: a tax that's been around for ninety years. It's important

693
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: because we use it for the Highway Trust Fund to

694
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: keep our highways going. But what I'm proposed is suspending

695
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:41,720
Speaker 1: the federal gas tax without affecting the Highway Trust Fund. So, Senator,

696
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: for my math year and back of the Napkin math

697
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: on radio is always dangerous. So even if this happens,

698
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 1: people were paying six dollars a gallon might be paying

699
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: what about five forty two give or take yeah, for

700
00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 1: like a few weeks, and then it'll go right back up.

701
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: This is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of.

702
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: I mean, what Joe Biden can do if he wants

703
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: to have any effect on gas prices is to suspend

704
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: and reverse his idiotic Green New Deal policies that are

705
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: causing this crisis. Let's not forget this is the guy

706
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: who when he came into office, the first thing he

707
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: did was suspend oil and gas leases, get rid of

708
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 1: our pipelines, cancel them, shut down American energy production. I mean,

709
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 1: and he boasted about it at the time, he bragged

710
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: about it, how he was going to be the climate

711
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: change president. Well, now we are getting the Green New Deal,

712
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: and we're getting it good and hard, and nobody can

713
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: afford to develop the tank or buy groceries, or by

714
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: critical goods and services because all of it is affected

715
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 1: by the price of energy. So and by the way,

716
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,320
Speaker 1: it's just isn't anybody else tired of seeing the President

717
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,800
Speaker 1: of the United States up there blaming everybody in anybody

718
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,800
Speaker 1: but himself. He won't take responsibility for anything. It's almost

719
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: like he isn't president, which you know, if that's what

720
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 1: he wants, we'd be happy to accommodate him. So doubt

721
00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 1: is just absurd how much success our Republicans going to

722
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,240
Speaker 1: be able to put forward in terms of just stopping

723
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: Joe Biden from being able to pass anything else. And

724
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: the reason why I ask is it's clear buildback better

725
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,319
Speaker 1: would have made inflation so much worse than it already was,

726
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: and he has created eight point six percent inflation with

727
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: many of the policy choices he's made. Now, do you

728
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: think we're going to be able to effectively run out

729
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: the clock and keep any more disastrous legislation from passing

730
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: before the midterms, or do you think Democrats, seeing the

731
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 1: shellacking that's coming, are just going to throw up their

732
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: hands and say we better get stuff past now while

733
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: we still have a majority. How would you assess the

734
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: landscape right now in the Senate and in the House

735
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,760
Speaker 1: in terms of Biden's ability to get more bad bills

736
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 1: passed before we get into officially the campaign season. Well,

737
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 1: I would just say that if Republicans will hang together

738
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:56,919
Speaker 1: in the Senate, you know, it takes sixty to get

739
00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:00,080
Speaker 1: anything done in the Senate, and all Republicans have to

740
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 1: do is to stand together and say no, we're not

741
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: going to go along. And this is one of the

742
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: reasons that this gun legislation disappoints me, is we should

743
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: be clear about this. This will has to pass with

744
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:12,400
Speaker 1: Republican votes. It cannot get through without at least ten

745
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 1: Republican votes, and I just think it's a big, big mistake.

746
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: So I hope the Republicans will want to stand strong

747
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 1: between now and November a Senate Republicans in particular will

748
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 1: say no to the Biden agenda. I think it's critical,

749
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 1: and I think we've got to give voters a reason

750
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,640
Speaker 1: to vote Republican. I mean, Republicans have got us stand

751
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 1: strong and should have got backbone. Why else would people

752
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 1: vote for us? Very good question, Senator Josh Holly of Missouri, Senator,

753
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:42,760
Speaker 1: appreciate you, Sarah, Thanks so much. Hey, thanks for having me. Folks.

754
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 1: As we get older, most of us start suffering from

755
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: those aches and pains and that soreness, and you know,

756
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: if you want to deal with it, try relief Factor.

757
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 1: Relief Factor is created by doctors and perfected over fifteen

758
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: years of scientific research. Relief Factor addresses the source of

759
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 1: your pain, which is often inflammation. And don't worry, it's

760
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: a one hundred percent drug free products, So if you're

761
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: concerned about side effects or harming your body, it's not

762
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:09,320
Speaker 1: something you have to worry about here at all. Hundreds

763
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 1: of thousands of Americans have taken Relief Factor to find

764
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: relief from pain, and nearly seven out of ten of

765
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: those people go on order more. Doesn't take long to

766
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,760
Speaker 1: determine if Relief Factor works. Three weeks and twenty dollars

767
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,240
Speaker 1: is the time and the cost. Our friends at Relief

00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: Appreciate all of you hanging out with us, gonna tee

784
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: off on all these crazy parents who are getting their

785
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 1: kids six months to five years old, the COVID shot,

786
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 1: which officially began yesterday. But we told you on this

787
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:33,360
Speaker 1: show that we believe we're probably already in a recession.

788
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:38,560
Speaker 1: The richest man in the world, well, Elon Musk, he

789
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:43,960
Speaker 1: says recession is inevitable. Joe Biden claiming that recession is

790
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: not inevitable. Whose side you're going to take, the guy

791
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,760
Speaker 1: who understands business and has built the largest wealth almost

792
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: in the history of the country, or the guy who's

793
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 1: been in government for over forty years and basically never

794
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 1: accomplished anything. Here's Elon Musk responding to Biden. Joe has

795
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 1: just come out and said that a recession in America

796
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 1: is not inevitable. How do you feel about the economy, Well,

797
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 1: I think a recession is inevitable at some point. As

798
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 1: to whether there is a recession in the near tone,

799
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 1: I think that is more likely than not. You agree

800
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 1: with Elon Musk. If you had to pick a side

801
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 1: to be on, would you either be on Joe Biden's

802
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: opinion on the economy or Elon Musk's opinion on the economy.

803
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 1: So here's what's going on. The Biden administration is hoping

804
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: that they can bolster sentiment. I mean, this is really

805
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 1: you know, fingers and toes in the dam as it's

806
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,399
Speaker 1: cracking kind of a policy, right, But they're hoping that

807
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: they can bolster sentiment just enough that we eke out

808
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: another quarter or two here without being formally in a recession,

809
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: because the only thing that might drive their political hopes

810
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 1: down into the dumps more than the super high price

811
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 1: of gas is when everybody has to because it becomes

812
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: a definitional issue use the R word recession when you

813
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,359
Speaker 1: have people saying, because it's gonna, you know what, it's

814
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: gonna be called the Biden recession. They're gonna try to

815
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 1: call it, you know, the Trump recession, or the Biden

816
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: Transition to Greatness plan or some such lunacy. But it's

817
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 1: gonna be the Biden recession, and we all know it.

818
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you, I talked to a friend

819
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 1: of mine. I'll just say it. I talked to him.

820
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: We talked on air about this yesterday on TV side

821
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 1: Ned Ryan, who's a super smart we've had him most

822
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 1: show many times Great Guy Super Squared Away runs American Majority.

823
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 1: And I said, so, what are we really looking at here, Clay?

824
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,359
Speaker 1: He said, based on the numbers, and he's plugged in

825
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,360
Speaker 1: with the political consultants and he knows how these races

826
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:48,040
Speaker 1: are going. Anything that Biden won by twelve to fifteen

827
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: points in twenty twenty is in play, and maybe some

828
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 1: outliers of fifteen to twenty points that meeting Biden won

829
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,799
Speaker 1: by fifteen or twenty points then could be in play

830
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 1: in this mid term, which means I don't know if

831
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,360
Speaker 1: we've ever seen something like this. Well, to put it

832
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 1: in a context, we just saw a Texas thirty fourth

833
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: congressional district that myra floor as one. It's swung by

834
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: twenty one points. So the Democrat congressman one by fourteen.

835
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:22,200
Speaker 1: She won by about seven So that's a twenty one

836
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,839
Speaker 1: point swing. That kind of could put into a rough

837
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: outline some of these districts and how they could change.

838
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:33,240
Speaker 1: And by the way, yesterday I told everybody out there, hey,

839
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 1: it's our one year anniversary. I want to think the

840
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 1: specific markets that we have been number one in buck

841
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,880

Speaker 1: ready to roll. We have been number one, and this

844
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 1: is in order of the market size, so I'm not

845
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,240
Speaker 1: trying to favor one or the other. This is market size,

846
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: top one hundred markets. We have been number one in Houston,

851
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:39,000
Speaker 1: and Spokane, Washington, and Syracuse, New York. Now, those are

852
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 1: just the top one hundred biggest radio markets in the country.

853
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 1: We rank highly in many of them. But Buck, that

854
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: is an awful lot of markets out there. We love
