1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Welcome in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: you hanging out with us. As we roll through the 3 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,880 Speaker 1: Wednesday edition of the program, I am back in Nashville. 4 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: Buck has traveled back home for a short period of 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: time before he's on the road again. Trump continues to dominate, 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,439 Speaker 1: having hit the ground at a full on sprint, as 7 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: he is continuing to remake the country and to a 8 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: large extent, erase much of the legacy of the entire 9 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: Biden regime. All of that rolling through as many of 10 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: us look around and think, I can't believe how quickly 11 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: he is moving, But my goodness, I am glad that 12 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: all of this is being put in place. And frankly, 13 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: many of the things that Trump is undertaking even kind 14 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: of surprise me. And then I look at them and 15 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: I say, my goodness. I mean, he's actually act in 16 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: a way that demonstrates he's not screwing around. He hasn't 17 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: gotten into office so far and gotten bogged down in 18 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: any of the petty issues out there. And Buck, this 19 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: new EO that he has put out that essentially says, hey, 20 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: if you're involved in DEI at all, then you are 21 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: out now again. A lot of this is going to 22 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: lead to substantial litigation, and we have to understand that. 23 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: And I know it's frustrating to some of you, because 24 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: the courts are going to weigh in, and you're going 25 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: to have a district court judge and a random location 26 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: out there somewhere that comes out and says, oh, the 27 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: President doesn't have this authority, and then it's going to 28 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: go to a circuit court, and then it's going to 29 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: wind its way all the way to the Supreme Court. 30 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: But the symbolism of something as profound as saying, hey, 31 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: DEI has no basis whatsoever in our government actually sends 32 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: an incredible message across the country and it forces many 33 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: different big corporations out there, and many of you that 34 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: have been forced to be sitting around for these ridiculous 35 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: DEI seminars as part of your HR training. No matter 36 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: where you work, whether it's a public school, whether it's 37 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: a large corporation, if the federal government is saying this 38 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: is no longer the rule of the land, a lot 39 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: of these companies that may have recognized that this is 40 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: absurd and should have had no basis in reality for 41 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: a long time feel emboldened and enabled to be able 42 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: to stand up and say enough with this good riddance, 43 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: And it actually does, even if it's held up in court, 44 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: have a substantial impact on the day to day life 45 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: of tens of millions of Americans. Which is why I 46 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: say I love the incredible bravery that Trump is showing 47 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: right now to stand up against all this absurdity. I 48 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: think he believes it. I think he's been put in 49 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: place an incredible team to be able to enforce it, 50 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: put the best regulations forward for the Supreme Court to review. 51 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: I can't get enough of this buck. I imagine you 52 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: feel the same way, Clay. It's amazing. 53 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: It's difficult to even keep up with all the great 54 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 2: stuff that has been happening this early in an administration. 55 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 2: I've never seen any I've never seen anything like it before. 56 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone's ever seen anything like it before. 57 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 2: You know, there used to be this sense, I think 58 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: of you got to kind of ease in a little bit, 59 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: you know, But no, actually there's no easing in. There's 60 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 2: a sense of urgency. You know. When I went out 61 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 2: for kind of a special occasion dinner in New York 62 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 2: at this fancy restaurer, I remember up. It was a 63 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: Thomas Keller place up on the wall. The one thing 64 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 2: they had was sense of urgency. Because these guys are 65 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: operating in the culinary game at the absolute top, world 66 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: class level. This administration has a sense of urgency, hitting 67 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: the ground running clay. Let me just throw I'm throwing 68 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 2: this out there. It's like the menu of things we 69 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: would talk about today. I mean, you got to that. 70 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 2: The DEI thing is amazing. I mean Trump rescinding Executive 71 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:18,239 Speaker 2: Order eleven two four six from Lyndon Johnson and making 72 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 2: sure that that Affirmative Action DEI it's no longer part 73 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 2: of the federal government. There's other stuff. Trump administration has 74 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: canceled travel plans for refugees who are who were planning 75 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: to be resettled in the United States. State Department issues 76 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: a one flag policy. This is one of those things 77 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: where you say, in what world should any administration at 78 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: a US embassy abroad be flying a flag other than 79 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 2: our flag? And just to be clear, it's not like 80 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 2: we were flying the flag of the It's not about 81 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: flying the flag of the host country. Also as some 82 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 2: kind of a gesture of goodwill, we're talking about gay 83 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: pride flags, black Lives Matter flags, you know, left wing idea, 84 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 2: A lot flags flying from embassies under the Biden administration. 85 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: That's done with Trump administration expanding the authority of immigration agents, 86 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: allowing them to make arrests at previously protected sites such 87 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 2: as schools and churches. President Trump pardoning Ross William Ulbrich, 88 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 2: the Silk Road Dark Web marketplace founder McClay. It's just 89 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: coming at us fast and furious with all this stuff. 90 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: And I think that what we're seeing is the president 91 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 2: that we were hoping for coming out of the kinds 92 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 2: of character and mindset defining experiences that we saw over 93 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: the course of the election campaign, with the prosecutions, with 94 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: the attempt at assassinations. I mean, this Trump is going 95 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 2: for it, and this is what we want. This is 96 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 2: what we've voted for, and it is just the beginning. 97 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: No doubt. And what I still would point to is 98 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: buck the opposition can't get itself in order because they 99 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: are just falling all over themselves. I legitimately can't believe 100 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: that of everything that took place over the Trump inauguration 101 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: and of the first couple of days of actions, that 102 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: they have decided that the thing that they want to 103 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: go and die on this hill. Is Elon Musk supposedly 104 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: doing a Nazi gesture when any of you that have 105 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 1: watched this clip is self evident that he is awkwardly, 106 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 1: I will acknowledge because I do think in some ways 107 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: Elon Musk is an uncomfortable public speaker. And for any 108 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: of you out there that have not regularly talked in 109 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: front of thousands of people, which is most of the 110 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: American public, you may watch yourself speaking and say, boy, 111 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: that doesn't look anything like I ordinarily would. So he's 112 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: trying to say from the bottom of my heart, and 113 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: he taps his heart and he kind of just throws 114 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: handout in gesture clearly to the entire arena awkwardly. But 115 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: to claim that this is some kind of Nazi salute 116 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: is so crazy. I can't believe that this is their messaging. Buck, 117 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: this is what they have immediately fallen into. 118 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: They're desperate, they're delusional. Just take a step back from 119 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: this for a second, Clay, all of us take a 120 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: step back from this. So their theory now is that 121 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 2: the richest man in the world randomly would decide to 122 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: throw a Nazi salute into a speech. Why because he's 123 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: a secret Nazi. They really believe that. Anyone who believes 124 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: that is a moron. And I know we shouldn't use 125 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: we shouldn't call people names. I get emails. No, anyone 126 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 2: who thinks that Elon Musk is a secret crypto Nazi 127 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 2: because of that is an imbecile who should be listened 128 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: to about nothing like Congressoman AOC for example, she's an 129 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: idiot by the way, I take it back. They can't 130 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: make her into a bigger deal. They wish they could. 131 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 2: She's too dumb. She's too dumb, and she's not even. 132 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: Of your speaking about how dumb she is. This is 133 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: their messaging. They've learned nothing from the last nine years. 134 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: They've learned nothing by the massive increase of support for 135 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: Jewish voters for Trump, or for the fact that due 136 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: to the college campus protest, if you're going to assign 137 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: anti Semitism to either the Democrat or the Republican Party, 138 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: it's clearly more prominent on the Democratic side of the equation. 139 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: Here she is social media superstar who also happens to 140 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 2: be a Democrat Member of Congress AOC and unfortunately is 141 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: one of the lowest IQ individuals in the Congress. Here 142 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: she is saying that Elon Musk made a Nazi hand gesture. 143 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 3: Play eight, you're gonna do a sig hail. You're going 144 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 3: to do a hail Hitler or their rebrand a Roman 145 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: salute from behind the presidential seal of the United States 146 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 3: of America. It's on. It's on. And what is so 147 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 3: important for us to understand is that as long as 148 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 3: we don't give up, it's not over. It's not over. 149 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: It is not over. 150 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 2: Sorry, I thought she was over with this. She's more 151 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 2: to give us more. We need more of them being 152 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 2: completely childish imbeciles. We need them to keep doing this 153 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 2: stuff that got us to this point where so much 154 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 2: of the country is unified. In just taking out the 155 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 2: Trump steamroller and the whine, the usual tricks, you'll notice, 156 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: you know, I saw, for example, someone who you know, 157 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: in a a would be illegal, who was actually at 158 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: the border waiting to come in. On the app they 159 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 2: were sharing the Scott widely share. She starts crying because 160 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 2: she can't come in. Yes, we're gonna have to say 161 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 2: tough things to people sometimes. Yes, we're going to have 162 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 2: to say you actually can't come into the country. Okay, 163 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 2: you have a country that you were born in. That 164 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 2: is your country of origin and nationality and citizenship. Go 165 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: make that country a better place. We've had enough of 166 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: this ten million under Biden. Okay, the old moral blackmail 167 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 2: stuff clay from the media and the Democrats. We don't care. 168 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 2: It's not working. 169 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: Also, I think this is indicative to your point of 170 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: how AOC rose to prominence. She rode a rigged social 171 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: media ecosystem and a rigged legacy media that would give 172 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: her an artificial sense of the popularity of the opinions 173 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: she was sharing. And this is they don't have any 174 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: idea how to adjust. I've said this, but last month 175 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: I was in Israel to claim that prominent Trump supporters 176 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: are Nazis. They tried this with Trump. It didn't work 177 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: that you would suggest that. What this reminds me. You 178 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: remember when they decided the Oka hand gester. 179 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: I was just thinking about that, didn't they They got 180 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: like a Mexican American fired from his power line company 181 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 2: or something because someone took a photo of his hand 182 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 2: outside of a door at a red light. 183 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: Well, you remember, for most people out there, and I'm 184 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: doing the gesture on camera here, it was like if 185 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: you got somebody to look at that you could punch 186 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: him in the arm, right. 187 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 2: But here, yeah, but here's yeah. 188 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: So the culture that was going on, but it was 189 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: like they got people fired. They called it a racist 190 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: hand gesture on television. They showed it at the Army 191 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: Navy game. I mean, it's crazy. 192 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: But this is such an important reminder because they don't 193 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 2: have the power anymore to get their way with this stuff. 194 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: We lived in an America not long ago, a few 195 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 2: years ago, before this election, before twenty twenty five. We 196 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 2: lived in America where Democrats could decide the most insane 197 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 2: crap imaginable and you would suffer for it. They would 198 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: decide that men could be women. They would decide that 199 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 2: a random hand gesture that has nothing to do with 200 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: anything means you're a secret white supremacist. They would say 201 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: that Donald Trump is a crypto fascist who's going to 202 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 2: put people in camps clay. They could get away with 203 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 2: saying anything, and you know, it's a reminder also of 204 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 2: the era where they could just call someone racist and 205 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 2: ruin them not anymore, not anymore, or it doesn't it 206 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 2: doesn't work anymore. They're stupid games. They're communist approach to 207 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 2: the society around them. It just doesn't have the same 208 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 2: doesn't have the same punch. Sorry, libs. 209 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: I will say this is to me really representative of 210 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: them not being able to figure out how to fight 211 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: back against Trump. That they think that going after Elon 212 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: Musk for a gesture during a speech is going to 213 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: in some way imperil his abilits. That's what that's is 214 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 1: really about, right, It's about imperiling Trump's ability to get 215 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: things done. They are woefully misguided, and actually I encourage 216 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 1: them to continue down this path of stupidity. 217 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: Agree, And here's one more thing. I'll at it and 218 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: we'll take some of your calls on this as well. 219 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: Eight hundred two A two to eight A two. You 220 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 2: know that number. Light us up. I want to say 221 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: calls today. Yesterday I was having some tech issues, so 222 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 2: the calls I couldn't really get to, uh clay. Notice 223 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 2: how what they're not saying is we've learned something about 224 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 2: what the American people want, and we the Democrat Party 225 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 2: want to pursue better governance and policies that will make 226 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 2: people's lives safer, more prosperous, and more free, or any 227 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 2: variation of that. You know why they're not saying it 228 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 2: because one they don't believe in it, and two they 229 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 2: can't because the Democrat Party has been overtaken at the 230 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 2: top level by idiots. Honestly, these are not impressive people. 231 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: They're not smart people, they are not good people. And 232 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: that's why the opposition is you're you're a crypto racist, 233 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: Nazi or whatever you're you know, that's why they're pretending 234 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 2: elon musk. Give me a break. It's insane. All right. Now, 235 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 2: let's talk safety for a second. There's no substitute for 236 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 2: feeling safe in your own home. Our sponsor, Saber knows 237 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: that all too well.

Look, I got a 247 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 2: lot of guns at home, but I got a lot 248 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 2: of Saber products at home too.

I did break my fast 267 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: When it comes to morning Joe Clay turned it on 268 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 2: for a few minutes this morning because I just needed to. 269 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: I needed to bask in some liberal tears. Uh Mika 270 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 2: over there. This is cut eleven. Very upset about the 271 00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 2: January sixth pardons. Play it. 272 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 5: All these officers that we've come to know and bravely 273 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 5: defended the Capitol that day, they're going to have to 274 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 5: relive it now again. These people who attack them and 275 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 5: beat them to within inches of their lives are out 276 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 5: and free. 277 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 6: It's true, we shouldn't be shocked. Trump said that he 278 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 6: would do this. He said it repeatedly. It was a 279 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 6: key part of his campaign. At the same time, it 280 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 6: is very hard not to be incredibly sad right now 281 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,119 Speaker 6: about this and what it means. 282 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 2: She didn't quite cry, so it was a little disappointed there. 283 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 2: I know, I got you guys ready for it, Clay. 284 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: It's not also as if people weren't already extremely harshly 285 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: punished for January sixth. They're just getting their lives back. 286 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 2: It's not a Joe Biden preemptive pardon for all of them. 287 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 2: That's super important, which gets completely left up. They've been 288 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: in prison, treated like terrorists for years. It's madness. 289 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: We need to talk about that when we come back, 290 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: because I think the preemptive pardon element of what Biden 291 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: does is actually being under discussed, and I think a 292 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: lot of people don't understand the concept and comparing them 293 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: because frankly, a lot of people are morons. But whatever 294 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 1: you think about the jan six individuals, all of the 295 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: people that Trump is pardoning, that is the purpose and 296 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: intent of the pardon, and we need to talk about 297 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 1: that when we come back. A preemptive pardon is not 298 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: only a get out of jail free card. It's also 299 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: protection from anything that you may have done for a 300 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 1: decade plus that we don't even know about right now, 301 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: and that is seismically different than what Trump did. And 302 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: we need to kind of dive in here so you 303 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: guys are aware of the dishonesty and the way this 304 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: is being talked about. But come on, Mika gonna cry 305 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: over this. You've got to be kidding me. I mean, 306 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: that is just this is why MSNBC and CNN are 307 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: collapsing in the ratings. 308 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you know how we know that Trump's 309 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 2: doing a great job. Lives are crying all over the place, 310 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 2: right all over the place. You know, with all the 311 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 2: focus on President Trump's I mediate agenda, the Nash debt 312 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 2: that President Trump inherited is going to be eventually addressed. 313 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 2: But until then, we still have inflation to contend with, 314 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 2: and we have a dollar that is under pressure. That 315 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 2: is just what's going on. It's going to take a 316 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 2: while to turn it around.

You're gonna be in Las Vegas 338 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: starting tomorrow's and. 339 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 2: Anyone who knows Shot Show knows Vegas, Baby Vegas, Baby Vegas. 340 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 1: So Buck will be flying there tomorrow, will be doing 341 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: the show there tomorrow. But I wanted to hit this 342 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: because I do think it's significant, and you brought it up, 343 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: and I know many of you may be hearing this 344 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: discussion point, and I think it's supremely important. The pardon power. 345 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 1: Let me give you an example. Joe Biden pardoned Hunter 346 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: after Hunter had been convicted of crimes and or pled 347 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: guilty to crimes involving guns and tax related failure to pay. 348 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,719 Speaker 1: I and but Buck and I said, hey, we expect 349 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: Hunter to get pardon. Nobody hardly in the media was 350 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 1: telling you that Biden lied and said he wasn't going 351 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: to do it. We told you we expect him to 352 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,880 Speaker 1: pardon Hunter. You may not agree with it. I said, 353 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: as a dad, if I were president in the United States, 354 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,719 Speaker 1: I would pardon my son. I understand some of you 355 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: disagree with that. But if I felt like he was 356 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: being politically targeted because of me and I had that power, 357 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: I'm not letting my son go to prison. Some of 358 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: you may disagree. That's fine. It's really more of a 359 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 1: parenting philosophy than anything else. But that is the essence 360 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: of the pardon power. Now, yes, Joe Biden personally benefits, 361 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: and ideally the pardon power would be based on principle. 362 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: For instance, when Biden pardoned a lot of the federal 363 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: death row inmates, although he left out three, which undercuts 364 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: the principle there. If you are opposed to the death penalty, 365 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: then there is a principled stand associated with giving a 366 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: pardon in that respect. But in all of that those cases, 367 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: an individual was charged, prosecuted, convicted, and either faced a 368 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: punishment or would face a punishment. That is what the 369 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: part in power is for. That is what happened with 370 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 1: all the jan and Six defendants. You could agree or 371 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: disagree with Trump's decision, but those individuals have all been charged, prosecuted, 372 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 1: many of them have served time, and Trump decided I'm 373 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: going to pardon the vast majority of them. 374 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 2: One of the reasons that the infamous and even Eric 375 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 2: Holder who signed off on it, because there's a process. 376 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 2: The president can just do it, but there's usually kind 377 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 2: of a consent process or a i should say, administrative 378 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 2: process around the president for some of these pardons. Mark 379 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 2: Rich signed off on Bill Clinton's I'm sorry, Eric Holder 380 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 2: signed off on Bill Clinton's pardon of Mark Rich. And 381 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: the reason that that was so outrageous to people. Mark 382 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 2: Rich's wife, by the way, it was very wealthy, making 383 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 2: huge donations to Democrats, so it felt like just the 384 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 2: whole thing was a straight up payoff. He fled after indictment. 385 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 2: He went to Switzerland, so he evaded justice. He didn't 386 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 2: even have the respect of an American to face the 387 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 2: justice system. And that was why klay. So people were like, oh, 388 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 2: so he goes to Switzerland and gets off entirely, And 389 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 2: that is what happened, and. 390 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: He had the wealth to be able to do it, 391 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: which is why it seems particularly unseemly. Now what Biden 392 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 1: did for his family and Anthony Fauci and the jan 393 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: six committee members is truly without precedent. He gave them 394 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,239 Speaker 1: a clean get out of jail free card. In the 395 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,479 Speaker 1: case of Fauci and his family in particular, dating all 396 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: the way back to twenty fourteen, we have never seen 397 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: no charges brought, no investigations really of a substantial nature 398 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: by the Department of Justice that we know of underway here, 399 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: and he just gave them blanket pardon immunity, in particular 400 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: on the in the case of his own brothers and sisters. 401 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: That was something that protects Biden himself. Also, I don't 402 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 1: think it's constitutional. I question whether you can just give 403 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: a floating get out of jail free card for a 404 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: decade's activity when we don't even know what in ord 405 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: the preempted pardon concept. And so this is big. There's 406 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: a big difference between what Biden did with preemptive pardons 407 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 1: and whether you agree or disagree with it, what Biden 408 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: did say with Hunter Biden or with the death Row inmates, 409 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: or what Trump did with the January sixth individuals. That 410 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: is the standard method by which pardon goes and is 411 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: used historically in the United States. Biden's use of it 412 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: to protect his family members members is expansive and I 413 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: think actually unconstitutional. 414 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 2: Well, it also goes to the corruption of the very 415 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 2: top of the government, right, That's something and they were 416 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 2: very clear when Trump was president the last time that 417 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 2: it would be an egregious miscarriage of justice and a 418 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 2: misuse of the pardon power if Trump pardoned himself or 419 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 2: any of his family members. They're all go to CNN, 420 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 2: go to MSNBC. They are all on the record saying 421 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 2: that you can watch the videos because they're they're just 422 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 2: all frauds. It's just they're whatever helps their team is good, 423 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 2: Whatever hurts the other team is good. They don't care 424 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 2: about any actual principle, right, So that's been very clearly 425 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 2: established your Clay. But for these jen six individuals, the 426 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 2: way that I mean, I just think this is one 427 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: of the biggest misrepresentations of it. The way that they 428 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 2: speak about this over at MSNBC, it's like, oh, you know, 429 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: like these guys didn't face anything for what they There 430 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 2: were people whose lives were ruined for Tress pass. Yes, okay, 431 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 2: you know who else is trespassing? All the illegal aliens 432 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 2: they are trespassing on the soil of the United States. 433 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 2: They are illegally present here, and no one's saying they 434 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 2: should have their life destroyed and thrown in prison for years, 435 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 2: or at least that's not what people are saying. They're 436 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 2: saying they should go back to their home countries. So 437 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 2: it's amazing and dishonest on just such an epic level 438 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 2: to watch these different and some of them are also 439 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 2: people that are kind of never Trump former Republicans, like, oh, 440 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 2: this is so horrible what he did. It's been years. 441 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 2: These people were all prosecuted more vigorously than anybody else 442 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 2: you can think of for the same conduct, and it's 443 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 2: because they decided. The exacerbating factor that made every one 444 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: of these cases so much worse was that it was 445 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 2: on behalf of Donald Trump, and it rejected Joe Biden's 446 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 2: six million Really interesting that whole vote situation. It called 447 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 2: it into question, and that was their real crime, not 448 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 2: allowing the regime to just steamroll everybody who had questions. 449 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: Also, and this is the other part I think is significant. 450 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: If you are out there and you don't agree with 451 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: the pardon of the January sixth, individuals I do. I've 452 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: argued for it. We've argued for it for some time 453 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: on this show to a large extent. What I would 454 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: say to all of you is, compare how the Jan 455 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: sixth individuals were treated compared to all the BLM protesters, 456 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: if you want to argue, and I think we should 457 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:29,120 Speaker 1: have this as the standard that Democrat, Republican, independent, libertarian, 458 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: whatever your political philosophy is, that if you break the law, trespass, 459 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: engage in violence, loot, whatever it is, you should be prosecuted. 460 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 1: I agree with that, but you should be prosecuted exactly 461 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: the same regardless of what your political background is. Most 462 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: of the BLM protesters nationwide, certainly in Washington, d C, 463 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: got virtually no punishments at all, and they threw the 464 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: book at all of the Jan sixth. So, even if 465 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: you don't really like the part and buck, the disparate 466 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: treatment is an injustice in itself because it's political in nature. 467 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 2: And they brought all of these in DC because of 468 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 2: the rigged jury pool of Trump hating Democrat leftists who 469 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 2: are overwhelmingly benefiting from the federal leviathan in one way 470 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 2: or another, being based in DC, and that they weren't 471 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 2: given a fair trial the judges railroaded them, did not 472 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: allow for change of venue for example. Why that's a 473 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,479 Speaker 2: standard thing in many trials. Hey, guys, I think the jury, 474 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 2: of course, the jury in Washington, d C. Which is 475 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 2: ninety four percent Democrat, is going to be unfair to 476 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 2: Trump supporters given the politics surrounding their prosecutions. Not a 477 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 2: single one of them was allowed to have their trial 478 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 2: moved outside of the DC jurisdiction to another venue because 479 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 2: it was all about having a machinery of destruction of 480 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 2: these individuals. I just add this claiman We could do 481 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 2: a lot of these comparisons. One example, though, is remember 482 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: the guy who fabricated evidence in the FISA application against 483 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: I think it was a Carter page. Yeah, remember the 484 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 2: guy who and he did it. I mean he changed evidence. 485 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 2: He's a government lawyer. He made something disappear to get 486 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 2: that warrant to go after Trump. Clearly violated the law. 487 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 2: You know what his punishment was by the DC jury? Nothing? Nothing. 488 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 2: Guy walked without anything happening. Why because he was a 489 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 2: soldier for the left and they knew it. 490 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: Idea going forward, and I have said this before, and 491 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to text some of the guys that could 492 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: potentially make this happen. It is a rigged jury system 493 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: in Washington, DC that Democrats have exploited because to your point, 494 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: it's a ninety four percent Democrat jurisdiction. To my knowledge, Buck, 495 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: there is no Republican area that votes as strongly Republican 496 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: as Washington d C votes Democrat. Since it's the seat 497 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: of the federal government. That is an incredible asset. I 498 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: actually think it's very fair and should happen that if 499 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: you are charged with federal crimes, you should be able 500 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: to relocate those federal charges to also your home jurisdiction 501 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: if you so choose. In other words, if somebody wanted 502 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: to bring charges against me in Washington, d C. Instead 503 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: of me having to stand trial in Washington d C. 504 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: With the jury pool that advantages Democrats, given what I 505 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: do for a living, probably is not going to be 506 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: that fairly disposed to me. I should be able to 507 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: relocate that case to my home state of Tennessee and 508 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 1: my home jurisdiction of the Nashville area and allow a 509 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: true jury of my peers here. In the event that 510 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: I were charged with the crime that would be me specifically, 511 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: you would be able to relocate something to Miami Dad, 512 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: somebody who has charges brought against them. I think there 513 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: should be a law passed. The Republicans could pass it 514 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: right now. I think it would be tremendously beneficial for 515 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: Lawfair because one of the motivating factors of the Lawfair 516 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: Buck is that Democrats don't have to worry about the 517 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: their jurisdiction in Washington, d C. They have an advantage. 518 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: They basically have a home field advantage for every game 519 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: that they want to bring. All I'm asking is, hey, 520 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: give an opportunity to someone like me or you, or 521 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: anyone else in the country to actually be charged in 522 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: a home jurisdiction as opposed to DC. 523 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 2: This is just an aside, but our conversation about this 524 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: reminds me of it. 525 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 6: What a. 526 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 2: Clown Jack Smith is. Oh, it's hard to believe how 527 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 2: much put aside the egregious weaponization right the art, but 528 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 2: it's also that he was so incompetent with the timing 529 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 2: of all of this, and that it was so blatant 530 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: with the jurisdiction shopping that he did, and just all 531 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 2: of it was so clearly manipulated and orchestrated to rig 532 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: the system against Trump. And it was all for nothing. 533 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 2: In fact, I actually think that it propelled Donald Trump 534 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 2: to just be the choice without even a real primary 535 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: having to happen, and then normal Americans who aren't insane 536 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: because of Trump's arrangement just said, yeah, no, we're making 537 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: a president again. Buck. 538 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: Also, you know who didn't get a preemptive pardon, Jack Smith? 539 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 2: Jack Smith. 540 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: I think Biden's actually angry about how Jack Smith did 541 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: his job, and not giving him a pardon on the 542 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: way out was his way to demonstrate that anger about 543 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: the way that process went down. I think he believes 544 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: I think he's wrong, but I think he believes that 545 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: if Merrick Garland had brought the case faster, that Trump 546 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: would have stood trial, and if Trump had had to 547 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: stay on trial for Jan six or related incidents, then 548 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: it would have actually damaged him. I don't know that 549 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: I buy that as being true, but I think that's 550 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: one of the things that Biden is holding to as 551 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: he left. And if you wonder whether that's true or not, 552 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: just look at who we've pardoned and who he didn't. 553 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 2: Look. 554 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: You tune in here because you want to be informed, 555 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 1: You want to learn something new.

I don't think you got to talk yesterday. 612 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 2: And something else I want to put on the radar. 613 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 2: The only misstep that I've seen so far in the 614 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 2: first couple of days is however it happened that the 615 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 2: Trump family and the Vance family had to sit there 616 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 2: and be scolded by this radical progressive episcopal female bishop, 617 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 2: you know, Christopher. Anyway, I was gonna there's a Christopher 618 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 2: Hitchins line about the Episcopal Church, which I'll let people 619 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 2: go find on their own. But I would just say this. 620 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 2: That's the only thing we should talk a little bit 621 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 2: about it though, because I mentioned yesterday you had to 622 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 2: go to the flight, that is indicative of the kind 623 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 2: of leftist victimhood and emotional blackmail that is now. I 624 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 2: think the only opposition that they have in Trump. 625 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: Is yeah, and by the way, we'll take some of 626 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: your calls in the second hour. But I think that's 627 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: also indicative of kind of the rig job that I 628 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,800 Speaker 1: was talking about in the court system. It is tradition, 629 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: my understanding is to be at that church service, and 630 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 1: so Republicans are basically putting themselves in a position to 631 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: be hectored in a public fashion by a far left 632 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: wing zealot in a way that Democrats would never put 633 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: themselves in because DC is their home forum. And if 634 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris had won, that exact same homily, that exact 635 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:34,359 Speaker 1: same speech from that priest would have been what an 636 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: amazing job Kamala Harris has done being so welcoming. In 637 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 1: other words, the propaganda of the church would have moved 638 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: in favor of Democrats when it should just be a 639 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: down the middle prayer for America in general. 640 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 2: It's a rig job.
