If you look at the board right now, 11 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: we got a great show coming for you as we 12 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: count down the days to the mid terms and get 13 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: you ready. I know many of you are already out 14 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: there voting if all of the favorites one in the 15 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: betting markets, and you guys know that I love to 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: analyze the betting markets more than I'd like to hear 17 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: what Blond Television might be saying, where is money actually 18 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: going herschel Walker's gonna win in Georgia. We are going 19 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: to see a win for Blake Masters, as I just 20 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: said in Arizona, and Adam Laxalt is going to win 21 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: in Nevada. Now, this still requires all of you going 22 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: out and voting. But the board is expanding, not only 23 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: in the Senate where Baldock is surging right now Hampshire 24 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: and that might be a pickup as well. We've also 25 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: got Colorado with Joe O'Day. We've got Washington with Tiffany 26 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: Smiley running fantastic campaigns there. Those potentially could all be 27 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: in play. But Buck the wicked Witch of the Midwest, 28 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: Gretchen Whitmer. Real Clear Politics now has Tutor Dixon favored 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: to win that race. We had Tutor Dixon him was 30 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: at last week. You've got in New York where Lee's 31 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: Eldon is surging against Kathy Hokel Christine Dreysen in Oregon. 32 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: There are a lot of possibilities out there. The board 33 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: is expanding, the red wave is growing and threatening to 34 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: become a red tsunami. It's a good day to be 35 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: on Team Read. Also got a new poll out from 36 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: for Scott Jensen, who we had on recently Minnesota. Jensen 37 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: taking the lead in Minnesota. It's a narrow lead really 38 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: within the march of error, but just the fact that 39 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: he's up here is where we are. You know, if 40 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: yesterday Clay my sense of the thesis of the day 41 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: for my thinking was we're figuring out whether a majority 42 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: of the the American people cared the Democrats were wrong about 43 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: everything for two years. That's what this election is. Doesn't 44 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: matter they were wrong for two years about everything if 45 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: we all know they were wrong the vaccine, crime, immigration, 46 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: the boarder, the economy. Number one. Now, it's to your 47 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: point about the betting markets. Either we're heading into the 48 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: first time I would I mean certainly in memory that 49 00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: Republicans have been overestimated in polls. Instead of being consistently underestimated, 50 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: it would be the first time they've been overestimated. And 51 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: unless that is happening, this is going to be the 52 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: worst night that Democrats have had. Politically, well, Trump, Trump 53 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: hurt them in the sixteen you know, Trump hurt them 54 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: in the soul. But in terms of the mid term possibilities, 55 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: obviously two thousand and ten, you're you're going back to 56 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: the Tea party way fear of two thousand and ten, 57 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: which you know people are gonna people are gonna be 58 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: analyzing this a lot of different ways. What we've been 59 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: saying the economy, immigration, crime, You know, you look at 60 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: Texas for example, where now we might get it. You 61 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: might get a double digit Abbot win over Petou in 62 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: Texas and the most you know, the most important issue 63 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: in a Texas and a ut pole that just came 64 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: out last night, Clay the most important issue in Texas 65 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: more than the economy illegal immigration. Yeah, across the electorate. 66 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: So this is why it depends. If you're in Oregon, 67 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: it's economy crime. If you're in Texas, it's economy border. 68 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: If you're you know. But but those the big three 69 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: are mattering a whole heck of a lot governed at Santists. 70 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: By the way, Florida up, now, is you the latest? 71 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: This is eleven points eleven points on Charlie Christ. We 72 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: gotta get him to a dozen. You know, maybe a 73 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: Baker's doesn't put that put it that in context. If 74 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: Desantist wins by eleven or more, really ten or more, 75 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: but basically for sure eleven or more, it effectively is 76 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: the biggest landslide in Florida for a Republican statewide official 77 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: in modern history. And people say, what does modern history mean? 78 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: It's hard to find all the data on like the 79 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: nineteen twenties, Like I don't know what the Republican party's 80 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: strength was one hundred years ago. For instance, in Florida, 81 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: what did it look like in nineteen fifty four, Like, 82 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: I have no idea, right, so modern era to me 83 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: is basically from nineteen eighty to the present, the last 84 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: two generations. This is effectively taking Florida off the board 85 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: for Democrats going forward. And I also, and I really 86 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: mean this because COVID and what we saw during COVID 87 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: at some levels shattered my faith in the in a 88 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: majority of the American people, maybe a bearer majority, but 89 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: there was this Now, I don't think it actually was 90 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: a truly, it wasn't really about what the numbers were. 91 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: It was about who's in power. It was about CDC 92 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: was but Fauci's about the media. But we went through 93 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: this period where it just seemed like insanity and the 94 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: crazies were in charge. And while yeah, there's a lot 95 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: of politics and the economy and all that coming into 96 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: this midterm election, if it is what it is looking 97 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: like right now, it feels like a restoration of sanity 98 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: and reason in America after the complete lunacy that we 99 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: were put through during the COVID pandemic. And there we've 100 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: been saying there's no accountability for it. Yet, no one's 101 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: been held to account for all the destruction and the 102 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: misery and the just the tyranny that they instituted for 103 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: two years. And now we're in a place to say, actually, 104 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: a majority of the American people, when it matters, are 105 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 1: reasonable saying and are going to make the right decision. 106 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: Well and Buck, I just keep looking at the Democrat 107 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: message and it feels like they're taking for the overall 108 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: number one pick to use a sports analogy because the 109 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: CDC coming out and bringing COVID back for a lot 110 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: of parents out there. I don't know about you, because 111 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: you don't have kids yet, but my phone blew up 112 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: with parents furious over the idea that the CDC is 113 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: thinking about mandating the COVID shot for their kids. And 114 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: that idea I think is going to be very motivating 115 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: in places like Minnesota, in places like Michigan, states that 116 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: were shut down because they had Democrat governors where kids 117 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: didn't go to the classroom. It just to me has 118 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: brought back up all of that anger that many parents 119 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: out there feel. And I don't think it's a surprise 120 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: that women, that moms in particular, are the ones who 121 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: are the angriest about this because of what they had 122 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: to take on when their kids weren't in school. Well, 123 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: what this just the discussion within the CDC that is 124 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: underway and this vote they had to add it to 125 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: the suggested schedule, And I think it's important how we 126 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: broke this down. What we learned during COVID is this 127 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: circular lack of accountability, this merry go round of nobody's 128 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: ever accountable for the stupid, tyrannical, destructive ideas of Fauciism 129 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: which was which became a partisan Democrat movement Entirely. Parents, 130 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: I think have realized that at this stage. And when 131 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: I say parents, I mean that obviously our audience knows, 132 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: but more broadly, I think you're right, sadly are unaware 133 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: of the greatness of playing book on radio, that there 134 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: are people out there still. We've got to reach them, 135 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: We're looking for them. But I do think that there 136 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: are parents who see the CDC adding this and playing 137 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: this game still as showing beyond a reasonable doubt, right 138 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: beyond a shadow of a doubt, that politics and big 139 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: Pharma's pockets are more important than what is being forced 140 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: into the bodies of their small children. Right, that's a 141 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: when you're forcing people to inject something into their veins, 142 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: to inject something into their arm or whatever. And then 143 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: you realize it's not really about what's best for them, 144 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: but it's about bureaucrats who want to keep their jobs, 145 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: their prestige and the relationship with big pharmas so they 146 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: can even the best thing you can do, remember this 147 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: as a CDC person, is get put on the board 148 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: advisor eventually, of course, right, this is what to be 149 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: a consultant for moderna of course, then you get to 150 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: buy your Nantucket beach house. Like this is the whole 151 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: game they play. Parents have woken up to a clay. 152 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: It's just too much. It's too obvious now, and I 153 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: think a lot of parents are willing to say it publicly. 154 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of parents who still aren't 155 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: willing to say it publicly, though, Buck, And that's why 156 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: I go to the data. Ninety five percent of parents 157 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: of six month old to five year olds have not 158 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: gotten the COVID shot. For those kids. That's a lot 159 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: of Democrats, right, that's a lot of blue checks probably 160 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: who are still lecturing people about how great the COVID 161 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: shots are. So I think there's going to be a 162 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,959 Speaker 1: lot of moms who were worried about what their friends 163 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: might think, and a lot of dads who are worried 164 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: about what their friends might think in liberal enclaves that 165 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: are going to walk into that ballot box and they 166 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: are going to push the Republican button for the first 167 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: time in their lives. I think there's a lot of 168 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: people nationwide listening to us right now who said, you know, 169 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: I voted Democrat my whole life. I never thought I'd 170 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: be listening to a show like Clay and Buck, but 171 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: the whole country has gone insane. Buck. Last night I 172 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: talked to a big group of truckers that are in 173 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: Nashville for their convention, the NaSTA people. It was. It 174 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: was awesome, and they were also fired up still about 175 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: COVID and what was essential and non essential work, and 176 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: they were so fired up to be able to go out. 177 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: These are people from all over the country to get 178 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: their votes in. In radio world, we got a special 179 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: place in our hearts for truckers because a lot of 180 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: truckers across the country are in the three hour a 181 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: day club wean in Clay. They roll with us, you know, 182 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: I've I've gotten calls for years to get emails from 183 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: them when they're obviously not driving that they'll rock with us. 184 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: They'll roll with us all three hours on the highway. 185 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: So we always think that's super cool. I know there 186 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: are others too who aren't truckers to do that, but 187 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: a lot of truckers are rolling with us for the 188 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: whole show, and I just think that that's there is 189 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: a momentum. It's like we're rolling down the highway right 190 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: now as the GOP. And you would have to have, 191 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: like I said, you would have to have the first 192 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: example of massive overestimation of Republicans chances now and this issue, 193 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: because I know there are people who are like, no, 194 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: shut up, Like don't make it seem like it's no, no, no. 195 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: Now is when you run up the scoreboard. Now is 196 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: when you have the chance the first time, you know, 197 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 1: in a long time for a lot of people, maybe 198 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 1: in their lifetime, to vote for the winning team. And 199 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 1: it really is team Sanity, team reality. Sure they're Republicans, 200 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: just go around. But in places like Minnesota and Oregon 201 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: and New York and Washington State, we had Joe Kent, 202 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: phenomenal candidate on yesterday. I mean, you've got people who 203 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: are running in states and in places where you're not 204 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: voting as it's not a protest vote, it's not doing 205 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: your civic duty vote. It's to join the winning team 206 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: and be part of the revolution back really the counter 207 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: revolution against the commies. That's actually what's underway. They're a 208 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 1: lot let me clear that up. By the way. The 209 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: National Association of Small Trucking Companies, it's who I spoke 210 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: to last night, and they were phenomenal. Met a lot 211 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: of great people there. They're all fired up and buck 212 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: to your point. I think it's a really good one. 213 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 1: There are a lot of people listening to us right 214 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,079 Speaker 1: now in Portland and Seattle and San Francisco, in la 215 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: in New York City who have felt like they have 216 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: no voice, and a lot of you Michiganders that are 217 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: listening to us right now that we're like, man, we 218 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: got the wicked witch of the Midwest and Gretchen Whitmer 219 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: and we can't get rid of her. And in Minnesota 220 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: you're looking around and saying, we actually had politicians advocating 221 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: to do away with police in the wake of the 222 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: George Floyd incident. This was all complete failure. You have 223 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: the power right now. And what I would say, Buck, 224 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: is I understand there's still some reticence. I got asked 225 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: this question last night by one of the truckers. He 226 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: was asking me. He's like, man, this a whole rig 227 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: job that happened in twenty twenty has me nervous about 228 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: voting and the analogy that I would make. I made 229 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: it this morning on Dan Dakises show, who works at OutKick, 230 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: I said, don't allow the referees to decide the game. 231 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, beat the other team's ass so bad that 232 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: even if you're getting three or four flags that are unjustified, 233 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: it's not within the margin of error show up in 234 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: such big numbers that you dominate. You can't let the 235 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: rig job happen. Cheating when you're down ten thousand votes, 236 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: When you're down three thousand votes, that's not that hard, folks. 237 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: It can make it. When you're down fifty one hundred, 238 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty five hundred thousand votes gets it 239 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: gets exponentially harder to do without anybody figuring out what's 240 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: going on. So you want to people that are saying, oh, 241 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: how do you trust the system? Flood the zone with 242 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: victory and the system will you know that has a 243 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 1: currency all its own. You score sixty points in a 244 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: football game, you pretty much always win, no matter how 245 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: bad the refereeing is. This needs to be a sixty 246 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: point game. There's something comfitering about being prepared for anything 247 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: that comes your way. Friends, on the days you allow 248 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: yourself to consider those very frightening outcomes, honestly, you want 249 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: to make sure you took the steps in advance to 250 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: be prepared. Home and flood insurance, for instance, or having 251 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: your car set up with a full tank of gas. 252 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: Some people designate a relative another part of the country 253 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: as the person for everyone to call if you get separated. 254 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: And then there's something else. Emergency supplies of food. It's 255 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: hard to imagine sometimes, but that might be a thing 256 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: you need to prepare for as well, and you need 257 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: to do it before the emergency strikes. The easiest way 258 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: to do this is to rely on the experts at 259 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: my Patriots Supply for the food you'd need in such 260 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: a situation.

We've 272 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: been telling you about some critically important races, including in 273 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: some places that you may not expect it to be 274 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: possible for a Republican to be in such good shape. 275 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: But up right now in the polls, Tim Michael's the 276 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: governor of candidate rather pardon me, candidate for the governor 277 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: of Wisconsin. He is with us and he's running quite 278 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: a campaign. Tim, thanks for calling in. Okay, thanks for 279 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: having me on the show. It's quite an honor. And yeah, 280 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: it's uh, it's crazy that this race has not gotten 281 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: more national attempt. Two things. Number one, it's the most 282 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: expensive governor's race in the entire country. And two, boy, 283 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: if you'd like to tune into a football game, and 284 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: I know politics is much more serious in football. Tune 285 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: into a football game with less than two minutes ago 286 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: and the score is tied. This is your race. We've 287 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: been statistically tied. It's crazy how close all the polls 288 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: have been. Like from a week ago until three or 289 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: four weeks ago, is like forty seven point three to 290 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: forty seven point three. But finally now in the last week, 291 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: we're starting to see a little bit of separation, up 292 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: a point, up a point and a half. One point 293 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: one poll has us up three point, so we're headed 294 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: in the right direction. It's a crazy expensive race. We're 295 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: going to take out an incumbent Democratic governor and it's 296 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: going to be a big win for the people of Wisconsin. 297 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: We appreciate you coming on and certainly alongside of Ron Johnson, 298 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: we are continuing to fight as hard as we can 299 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: to make sure people in Wisconsin make a choice to 300 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: return some sanity to their state. What are the number 301 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: one or two issues that you are hearing in particular 302 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 1: from voters that you are seeing that the incumbent governor 303 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 1: there has failed on that they want to switch and 304 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: allow you to be in charge. Great, great question. And 305 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: all over this state, from you know, the Superior Wisconsin, 306 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: which is up by Lake Superior of course, down to Kenosha, 307 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: over to Lacrosse by the Mississippi River. Everywhere I go, 308 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 1: the number one issue by fire is inflation. People are 309 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: people are so concerned. We all know across America, price 310 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: of groceries is up, price that the pump is up. 311 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: People are very concerned. It's not a lot that a 312 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: governor can do. Right. We all get paid in US 313 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: dollars and we all spend US dollars, and you know, 314 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: the federal policy got us into this mess of inflating 315 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: the currency, thus resulting in inflation. But I'm going to 316 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 1: do massive tax reform here in the state of Wisconsin. 317 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: We're going to put more money in people's pockets. Right 318 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: on the heels. Right on the heels of the economic 319 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: issue is crime, and people are very concerned about crime 320 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: all across Wisconsin, from the inner city of Milwaukee out 321 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: into the suburbs and end up you know, through northern Wisconsin. 322 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: We're at a thirty year high of crime in Wisconsin. 323 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: And I believe the reason we got here is because 324 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: of a byproduct of the defund the police movement. We 325 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: got to this crazy spot in America where less police 326 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: is better or cops are bad. I don't buy that 327 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: for a second. We're going to flip the switch. We're 328 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: going to back the men and women in law enforcement. 329 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: We're going to get rid of the catch and release 330 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: das here in Wisconsin, and we are going to change 331 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: the attitude, if you will, of the bad guys, because 332 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: right now, the bad guys are emboldened. They think that 333 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: they're going to get away with it. They're not going 334 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: to serve their terms. What do I mean by that? 335 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: Governor Ebert is here in Wisconsin. He made a campaign 336 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: pledge four years ago that he was going to cut 337 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: in half the prison population in Wisconsin, and he's well 338 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: on his way to doing it. He's released over a 339 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: thousand convicted felons on early parole. Some of them, you know, 340 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: I think about three hundred of them are convicted murderers, 341 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: and some of those are cop killers. Most shockingly, forty 342 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: four of them are child rapists released early on the 343 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: streets of Wisconsin today. That's the attitude of our current Governor. 344 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: That is not what the people of Wisconsin want. I'm 345 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: going to back the blue, get rid of the soft das, 346 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: and we are going to get rule of law back 347 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: in the state of Wisconsin once again. And the bad 348 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: guys are going to know they're not gonna get away 349 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: with it anymore. They're gonna know that the governor himself 350 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: me wore a uniform. I'll be in a military uniform 351 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: for twelve years on active duty in the US Army 352 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: as an Army ranger. And We're going to flip the 353 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: switch on crime here in Wisconsin and real quick. The 354 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: third issue that I'm hearing everywhere is education. People know 355 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: that education today is not working. And I went to 356 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: public school in Wisconsin about an hour north of Milwaukee, 357 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: little farm community. I went to Littlemira K through twelve 358 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: and it worked for me. But that was over forty 359 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: years ago, and today the numbers in education continue to 360 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: get worse. The States Test here in Wisconsin is called 361 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: the Forward Test, the numbers continue to go down, the 362 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: National Test, the NAPE Test, the education scores continue to 363 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: go down. And our current governor, he spent his entire life, 364 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: his entire career in education. I have a lot of 365 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: respect for school teachers, but he probably should have stayed 366 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 1: a teacher and not got into administration. He was the 367 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 1: head of all education in Wisconsin, and now he's ahead 368 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: of you as governor. He's ahead of the entire state, 369 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: and the numbers continue to get worse. So I'm gonna 370 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: do massive tax reform, put more money in people's pockets. 371 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: We are going to back the blue, get rid of 372 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: the softas. We're going to get crime down in neighborhoods 373 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: and communities, and we are going to have better schools 374 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: here in Wisconsin. We're gonna empower parents. We're gonna do 375 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: universal school choice and put parents back in charge of 376 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: their children's education, and stop the CRT and get back 377 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: to the ABC's. We're speaking to Tim Michaels. He's a 378 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: candidate for governor Wisconsin, and too our folks listening in 379 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: Wisconsin on affiliates like Madison's, WIBAAM in WISN in Milwaukee. 380 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: This is an opportunity. You know, we've been talking to 381 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: Ron Johnson is running for Senate. They're looking pretty good 382 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: so far, but we could also get a sane individual, 383 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: a Republican. Here. We're speaking of Tim Michaels in the 384 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: governor's mansion of Wisconsin, and I'm just wondering you said 385 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 1: it was. This is really interesting. I mean, you led 386 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: with the statistic about the most expensive governor's race in 387 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: the country. I'm assuming a lot of the money that's 388 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: coming in for your opponent. Is it special delivery courtesy 389 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: of New York, California and Washington DC. Where's the money 390 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: coming from? Yeah, you got it all. It's all the 391 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: East coast, West coast money that's coming into Wisconsin. They're 392 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 1: you know, they're all rallying behind the incumbent Democratic governor 393 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: because they know that this seat is threatened and this's 394 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: going down. So the usual suspects, if you will. You know, 395 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: Steven Spielberg is sending a million dollars a week, and 396 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: you know, the cast of West Wing is doing a 397 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: show and they fundraise a million dollars in one hour, 398 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: and they're trying very hard. Here. It's a crazy, crazy 399 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: expensive race. When my wife and I made our decision 400 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: to run very early in the year, back in February, 401 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: we were told there'll be about thirty five million dollars 402 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: spent against the Republican candidate. It's now up to about 403 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 1: eighty five million dollars. So they're pulling out all the stops, 404 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: doing everything they can to hold this seed. But the 405 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: good news is, and we're unfortunately we're being out spent 406 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 1: on the air two to one right now. But the 407 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: good news is it's not having the effect that they want. 408 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: We are up a little bit in the polls. We 409 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: have the momentum now we're going to close strong. But 410 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 1: it takes everybody in Wisconsin. It takes everybody rallying together, 411 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 1: when we're all rowing together, when we're all working together 412 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: to do the right thing, to elect a conservative governor 413 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 1: who's not a politician, who's a businessman, who's an outsider, 414 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: who's made tough decisions in his life, who knows how 415 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: to make plans, execute plans, solve problems, who's met a 416 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: payroll as we have at our company since for the 417 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: past sixty two years, and who can read a balance 418 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: sheet and read an income statement. That's the kind of 419 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: leadership that we need in government right now. The problem 420 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,719 Speaker 1: we have in government at the national level and at 421 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: state levels is we have all these career politicians in 422 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: there that have never done anything well. We need to 423 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: get back to the way our founding fathers intended it 424 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: to be. People from all walks of life, take their 425 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: real life experience, go to the capital, serve a couple 426 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: of terms, and then leave and let somebody else come in. 427 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: Not have these career politicians that are in there for 428 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 1: way too long, that are in way over their head, 429 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: like our governor here in Wisconsin, he's never even run 430 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: a leamonade stand, and people are frustrated. I challenge people 431 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 1: everywhere I go, are you better off than you were 432 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: four years ago? And nobody can say they are. With 433 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: inflation up, with crime, price at the pump is up, 434 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: test scores are down. In schools four or one ks 435 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: are down. People are really frustrated. They're ready for change. 436 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 1: They see in me a candidate who's going to bring 437 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 1: that change. I've been a bold leader in my whole life. 438 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: Twelve years on active duty in the US, are an 439 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: Army as a born ranger, twenty five years helping grow 440 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 1: our company from when my dad passed away twenty five 441 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: years ago from a few hundred employees to over eight 442 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: thousand a day. That's what people want. Bold leadership of 443 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: a problem solver to get things done. And I'm not 444 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: beholden to anyone. I've said, I've made a pledge and 445 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 1: I've stuck to it. Never not taken any money from 446 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: packs or special interests or lobbyists. There's one person on 447 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: the face of the planet that I'll be beholden to, 448 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: and that's my wife, Barbara, my bride of twenty seven years. Tim. 449 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,199 Speaker 1: If people want to help out in this final stretch here, 450 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: where should they go?

Buck, I mentioned 483 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: this to you. I think off air, but I don't 484 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: believe we discussed it on air. We've been talking about 485 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: crime and how it is one of the central issues 486 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: that is being discussed in the closing days of the campaign. 487 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: This poll came out yesterday and I thought it was indicative. 488 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: Question was do you support or oppose the Black Lives 489 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: Matter movement? All the voters out there, do you support 490 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: or oppose Black Lives Matter? In June of twenty twenty one, 491 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter had a plus twenty one support level. 492 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 1: That's right after George Floyd, when every company was sending 493 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: you an email about BLM, when everybody was allowing BLM 494 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: to break all the COVID rules, and the scientists were saying, well, 495 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: we could have hundreds of thousands of people go protests 496 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: because it's more important than COVID, But you couldn't. Kids 497 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: couldn't be in school, and you couldn't go out and 498 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: like hang out with your family. Buck. October twenty twenty two, 499 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 1: do you support BLM? It's now three The majority of 500 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: Americans do not support BLM, and I suspect this is 501 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: falling faster. But so that's a twenty four point swing, 502 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: and among independence it's an even bigger swing because these 503 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: are people who kind of blow with the wind, I 504 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: would say, to be kind independence, not particularly plugged in. 505 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: They've gone from plus twenty three to fourteen, a thirty 506 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: seven point swing in the middle part of the country. 507 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: These are the people that are fed up with crime. Now. 508 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: VLM made everything worse for everyone. That's that's really the 509 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: that is they hadline. That is the reality. BLM made 510 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: everything worse for crime for every community, including the black community. 511 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: BLM made life more difficult for law enforcement officers. BLM 512 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 1: has made real estate values in major cities go down 513 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: as people are fleeing because of these additional issues of cops. 514 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at the Seattle PD, for example, 515 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,880 Speaker 1: they're down like thirty forty percent in police force strength 516 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: in a couple of years. That's catastrophic, Like you can't 517 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: actually have that and expect the city to be at 518 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: any reasonable level of safety. And I think it's interesting, Clay, 519 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: because usually this is where you'd hear and there are 520 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: some there, there are some you know, true believer leftists. 521 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: You go on MSNBC and you're just like, oh, this 522 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: is just like, well, actually I love the well actually 523 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,719 Speaker 1: actually you know and there was this moment I mentioned 524 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: this where the governor of Oklahoma, Kevin Stitt, who we've 525 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: had on the show. His challenger said, well, you know, 526 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: Oklahoma has a higher violent crime rate than New York 527 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: or California. Comparing states doesn't really mean anything. You have 528 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: to look at control of cities. You have to look 529 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: at Saint Louis and Baltimore and New Orleans and Chicago, 530 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: and you know, you go, you go, you look at 531 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: all these plays at Memphis already seen my hope states, 532 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: That's what I want in for you now. Because Joe 533 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: Scarborough on MSNBC mister panhandled. Joe, who used to represent 534 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: a part of Florida that I absolutely love, went on 535 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 1: and made this exact argument that idiot left wingers are 536 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: making now. And he's saying, well, when you actually look 537 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: at the data, red states are far more blot violent 538 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: than blue states. Listen to him this morning before he 539 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: came to the show. Because I've been hearing this so much. 540 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: You also hear from progressives that crime is actually worse 541 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: per capita in red state America in states that voted 542 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: for Donald Trump. So I actually tweeted out a study 543 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: this morning and I said, this study claims that crime's 544 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: the highest, and eight of the ten states where it's 545 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: the highest, they're red states that voted for Donald Trump. 546 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: Jacksonville had a higher rise of murders than San Francisco, 547 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: despite the fact they're about the Okay, so Scarborough is 548 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: an idiot here, and I'll just use my state, which 549 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: I bet is one of the states with a high 550 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: crime rate, maybe top ten. So I live in Tennessee, 551 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: the place where crime is out of control in my 552 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: home state of Tennessee. And we got a lot of 553 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: people listening to us right now in Memphis who already 554 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: know what I'm gonna say. It's Memphis, Tennessee. Buck. We 555 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: discussed this with that awful Eliza Fletcher murder, which crystallized 556 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: for many people in my state. But also beyond this, 557 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: Mom goes out for an early morning jog. She gets 558 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: attacked and killed by a guy who should have still 559 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: been in and she was a completely innocent victim of 560 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: violent crime that's happening far too often all over this country. 561 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: Memphis only elects Democrats. Memphis is a blue city. Everything 562 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: in Memphis is run by the Democrat Party. It has, 563 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: not surprisingly, the highest rate of violent crime in the country. 564 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: And when you actually look at those red states, as 565 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough said, and say, okay, where is the actual 566 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: crime happening, It is overwhelmingly happening in blue run cities, right. 567 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 1: And so I'm using my home state of Tennessee as 568 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: an example. Most of Tennessee is very safe, but in 569 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: Memphis it is very dangerous. And the state is not 570 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,719 Speaker 1: that big, Right, There's six or seven million people who 571 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: live in Tennessee, and a million of those people are 572 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: in the Memphis area. So the Memphis crime stats are 573 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: going to make it look like the whole rest of 574 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: the state of Tennessee is very dangerous. Nashville not as dangerous, 575 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: not as blue as Memphis, Knoxville and Chattanooga, other big 576 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: cities not as dangerous as Memphis, not as blue dominated. 577 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: The more Democrat control of cities, you have to hire 578 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: the rate of crime almost exclusively across the country. Look, 579 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: this is an argument that they just can't win, which 580 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: is why there's there's a panic because if they if 581 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: they do the thing that's obvious, which is to say 582 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: we actually support police, progressive prosecutors have been a huge mistake. 583 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: They're admitting that We've been right all along for them. Politically, 584 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: that's untenable. It also would aggravate the Democrat woke base. Yes, 585 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: they would be afraid of losing woke white voters. They'd 586 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: be afraid of antagonizing black voters by you know, saying, oh, 587 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: defund police was a bad idea. This is the perception 588 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: of Democrat voters too. And this is where it's mostly 589 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: woke white people who live in this is This is 590 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: the point, is that that's their perception from the party. 591 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: When you actually go into black community and would you 592 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: like more or less police, the numbers are like seventy 593 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: five percent and up saying oh no, we actually would 594 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: like more police. We think that it would make this 595 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: neighborhood safer and we just want to go about our 596 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: lives without being harassed, without without being worried about crime. 597 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: And you know, this is you know, man, it's amazing. 598 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: I remember I was reading I work with a guy 599 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 1: in the Intel division who wrote a book called Blue Blood, 600 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: and he talked about long time ago. Actually they didn't 601 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: technically use it for the CBS series. I think there's 602 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: a little bit of back and forth there, but very 603 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: similar name. But he was a guy Eddie Colin was 604 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: his name. I remember in his book he said, you know, 605 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: people forget for everyone who complains about a cop, let's say, standing, 606 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, by the subway entrance in New York City, 607 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: and this is true everywhere. Everyone who sees a cop, 608 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, gassing up his car at Bucky's right, does 609 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: that the place Yes, still inundated with emails about the 610 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: Bucky's phenomena. But anyway, for everyone who sees a cop 611 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: out there and some person who says, oh, you know, 612 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: that makes me uncomfortable or like, you know, cops are 613 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: part of some oppressive there are a hundred people who 614 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 1: feel a little bit better, a little bit safer, glad 615 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: that they don't have to worry getting on the subway 616 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,720 Speaker 1: that day. There's someone who has their back. So ninety 617 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,320 Speaker 1: nine percent plus of people in every community are actually 618 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: seeing a cop and thinking to themselves, all right, things 619 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: are there's some back up here like situation. And we've 620 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 1: been told by the woke white left that this is 621 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 1: somehow a problem that needs to be addressed, as in 622 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: fewer cops on the streets. It's crazy. Woke white people 623 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: need to be destroyed, I mean, and politically they are 624 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,760 Speaker 1: causing most of the problems that exist in America because 625 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: it is there sort of looking down on black and 626 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: brown communities and saying, oh, you guys are so oppressed, 627 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: Let's pull the police out of your neighborhoods. And meanwhile, 628 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: those woke white people a lot of time with their 629 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 1: kids in private school, have as many police as they 630 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: can afford in the rich white neighborhoods where they live, 631 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,399 Speaker 1: and they get to go on social media and throw 632 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: up a BLM slogan and feel good about themselves. Meanwhile, 633 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: there are thousands of black people that would actually still 634 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: be alive if police had been able to do their 635 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: jobs in inner city neighborhoods. And black, white, Asian Hispanic 636 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: people of all rational and reasonable and non insane beliefs 637 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly see this. But the argument, just so you know 638 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: everybody out there, the left wing argument that Joe Scarborough 639 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: tried to trot out there is failed because it's looking 640 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 1: at statewide levels, when the levels of violent crime are 641 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:47,439 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly in Democrat run cities where they have taken away 642 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: the ability of police and prosecutors to actually do their jobs. 643 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: I want to tell you about ton of the towers 644 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 1: they've been building in Lando Lakes, Florida.

She also has 666 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: a book out January sixth, How Democrats use the Capitol 667 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 1: protest to launch a war on terror against the political right. 668 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: And Julie Buck and I we're talking about this earlier. 669 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: Your Patriot Freedom Project has done an incredible job being 670 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 1: able to provide lawyers to a lot of political prisoners 671 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: related to January sixth. Then Buck and I were discussing this, 672 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: and I'm curious what you think if Republicans take back 673 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: the House and the Senate, as increasingly appears likely, do 674 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: you think there will then be more of a willingness 675 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: to talk about the unfair treatment of many of these 676 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 1: January sixth political prisoners, Because maybe then January sixth, that's 677 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 1: a political issue, is effectively gone at least for a 678 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: year or more. Are you optimistic pessimistic? Will nothing change 679 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: at all? That's a good question. And I'd love to 680 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: take credit for all the good work that the Patriot 681 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 1: Freedom Project is doing, but really that was Cynthia Hughes, 682 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 1: who is the adoptive aunt of one of the defendants 683 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: who has been in the DC gualog since February of 684 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. But at any rate, you know, I 685 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: don't think Republicans are going to have a choice. This 686 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: is such a hot issue with the base, as both 687 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: of you know, because you're more plugged in than I am. 688 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: They see these egregious double standards of justice every day. 689 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 1: I mean, look at what happened today, Steve Bannon sentenced 690 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: to four months in prison the same week that that 691 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: Igor Danchenko is acquitted in Special Council John Durham's investigation 692 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 1: and to reussigate. I mean, this just has to end 693 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: at some point. And it's not just calling out the 694 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: double standard of justice. It is holding accountable the officials 695 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: India and ASBI who are responsible for this. So I 696 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,399 Speaker 1: don't think Republicans will have a choice. I'm not sure 697 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: they have the stomach for it, but they need to 698 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: find it. So what would that mean. Let's say they did, 699 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: Julie have the stomach for it if they were willing 700 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: to take real actions here. I mean, are we just 701 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: talking about hearings to try to get to the bottom 702 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: of things, or are we talking about eventually a lot 703 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: of firings from within the DOJ and the FBI by 704 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: the next Republican administration. Because people ask me all the time, 705 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: they say, how do you clean this up? Because I 706 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: talk a lot about and we talk on the show 707 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 1: a lot about the weaponization of particularly the prosecutorial and 708 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 1: judicial wings of government, and I don't have a very 709 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: I don't have a very satisfying answer for them. Well, 710 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: I think that there is discussion as to what this 711 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 1: would look like in January. Starting in January twenty twenty three, 712 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: I believe that their discussions out forming some sort of 713 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: church committee to look into FBI abuses, which is fine, right, 714 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,320 Speaker 1: We need to explain to the American people who aren't 715 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: following this day to day, like we are, exactly what 716 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 1: this agency, this reckless abuse, evengeful agency, along with the 717 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: Department of Justice, is doing to Trump supporters. But aside 718 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 1: from that, Republicans will have the power of the purse, 719 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 1: and what they need to do is start cutting off 720 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: funding to these entities who are responsible. The top office 721 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: culpable for all of this is the US Attorney's Office 722 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: for the District of Columbia, Matthew Graves, who was a 723 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: Biden campaign advisor. His wife is head of a radical 724 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:47,800 Speaker 1: left wing nonprofit in Washington, DC who accuses white women 725 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: who voted for Trump of being racists. So that's really, 726 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: that's really the poison pill in this entire operation. Merrick 727 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 1: Garland doesn't know what's going on. Merrick Garland is like 728 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. They're just sort of, you know, the figure 729 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: that elderly figurehead. They've got all their minions under them 730 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 1: running the show. The FBI. I don't think it's salvageable. 731 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 1: That will be a big debate. This is not just 732 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: a headquarters problem. This is a corrupt agency from top 733 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: to bottom, where this partisanship infects all fifty six field offices, 734 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 1: as we've seen from the Whitmer probube down to the 735 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: San Francisco field office. You've got a cyber expert with 736 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: the FBI who's working hand in hand with big Tech, 737 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: who told them in twenty twenty how to suppress the 738 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop information. So this is such a huge, 739 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, multi it's a hydra head of a problem. 740 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 1: And to believe that we can just cut a few 741 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: corners and write a few letters and have a hearings 742 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: and this will all go away is just folly. We're 743 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 1: talking to Julie Kelly. She's got a great piece up 744 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 1: about Jenna X and Buck and I have talked some 745 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: about this decision. In the numbers that came out of 746 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 1: the New York Times poll, which had Generation X overwhelmingly 747 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: supporting Republicans. Meanwhile just about every other age group was 748 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: supporting Democrats. You wrote about this. Why do you think 749 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: gen X has broken so substantially in the direction of 750 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 1: supporting Republicans. Buck and I make jokes about this. I 751 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: am the youngest possible Gen X member. I was born 752 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: pretty much. I was born in April of nineteen seventy nine. 753 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 1: So if I've been born eight months later, I believe 754 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: I would be a millennial. Buck is a whipper snapper. 755 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: He's a millennial. So his people are destroying America minor 756 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: saving it. Why is that, Julie, Oh, well, the Gen 757 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: X elder born in nineteen sixty eight, Clay, I will 758 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: allow you in. There's just thank you. Well, we're saving 759 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: we're saving the country. Julie and Buck and his whipper 760 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: snapper friends are trying to destroy it. Why are we 761 00:42:56,080 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: such heroes gen X? Well, look I mean, we grew up. 762 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 1: We were raised on Reagan, right. I mean this paper 763 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: that I cite, the study from actually twenty fourteen that 764 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: calls us the most conservative generation. Your politically formative years 765 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: are between the ages of fourteen and like twenty four 766 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: So we saw, you know, we saw what Jimmy Carter, 767 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: how we erect the country. We saw, you know, to 768 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 1: the malaise, most malaise of Carter, and how Reagan not 769 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 1: just strengthened the economy, that was one thing, but he 770 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: really was optimistic and he helped instill in us a 771 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: love of our country. We also had a strong anti authority, 772 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: anti establishment streak in US, but a lot of generations have, 773 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: except for millennials, but um anyway, so that's part of it. 774 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,760 Speaker 1: And our culture was like that, right. We were brash, 775 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: It was crass. Our comedy was was very crude. Our 776 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: colors were bull like, and we like to have fun. 777 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 1: We enjoyed our freedom. We had a lot of fun. 778 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: You know. I've got two daughters and college and went 779 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: in law school. And when we listen to eighties music 780 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: or I talked to them about it, they're like, God, 781 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: I wish I would have grown up that. Yeah, that's 782 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: the country that's been stolen from them. And so who 783 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,880 Speaker 1: do we hold accountable, you know, Joe Biden and the 784 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: Democratic Party, because that is what they're trying to rip 785 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: the soul, the fun, the heart, the freedom out of 786 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 1: this country, and we're just we're not going to take it. 787 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 1: Maybe that doesn't understand it reference, but I know, excuse me, 788 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 1: excuse me, madam, we're not gonna take yes anyway. Great, Julie, 789 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: I think it's even more like Buck and I have 790 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: talked about this too. You have got kids. I mean 791 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 1: I've raised my kids showing them all the nineteen eighties 792 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 1: movies and even the early nineties movies, and I think 793 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: there's a huge population out there that can remember the 794 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: nineteen eighties and the nineteen nineties and says, man, it 795 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: seemed like everybody really kind of got along. Well, you 796 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 1: didn't necessarily have to agree with everything, but the eighties 797 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: and nine these were kind of amazing and that everybody 798 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,399 Speaker 1: seemed to get along. And I think there's a lot 799 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: of nostalgia for both of those decades out in America, 800 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 1: even among young people. I think that's definitely true. I mean, 801 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 1: if you look at young people, the gen zs. You know, 802 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: they listen to eighties music, they're watching eighties movies, especially 803 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: during lockdowns with their Gen X parents. I mean, this 804 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 1: is how we really introduce them to the country that 805 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: they don't recognize. And so I do think that that 806 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 1: is true. I mean, look, I started junior high in 807 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty. I graduated from college in nineteen ninety. I 808 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: consider myself one of the luckiest people that I came 809 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: of age during that time. And the Democrats and Biden 810 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,800 Speaker 1: and plenty of Republicans and the news media do not 811 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: want that country back. They don't want fun, they don't 812 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: want freedom, they don't want liberty. And that's why you 813 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 1: see it's not just a little margin between Democrats and 814 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 1: Republicans and Biden and Trump. I mean, these are huge 815 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:06,360 Speaker 1: digit margins that favor Republicans, that overwhelmingly favor Trump over Biden. 816 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 1: So those aren't and the New York Times wasn't an 817 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,360 Speaker 1: outlier if I explained, there are dozens of polls that 818 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: show this for Gen X. So you know, we're going 819 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: to have to start our fight in November, and we're 820 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: going to keep going and put leaders of our generation 821 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 1: into office and keep pushing late and Julie. I don't 822 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,239 Speaker 1: want to. I don't want to rain on the gen 823 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 1: X nostalgia parade here, and you know, you guys could 824 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: all start talking about the great music that everything Gel said. 825 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 1: You know, we'll be sure all true. But I did 826 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 1: want to ask you, since we have you here and 827 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 1: we got millions of people listening across the country, you 828 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 1: thought that they're going to prosecute President Trump? Today? The 829 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: big news came rather really big news. But you know, 830 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,399 Speaker 1: the breaking news from the last hour, I should say 831 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 1: expected news, was that their subpoena in Trump. Officially they've 832 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,799 Speaker 1: given a timeline. Now is this is this all part 833 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 1: of that effort or is this just a diversion before 834 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: the election? You think they're bringing charges against Trump? How 835 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 1: does it roll out? I think the subpoena, just like 836 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: the raid, is sort of the optics of it. I 837 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: don't know where they think they're going to go with 838 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: this subpoena and why did they wait until they're last 839 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: meeting to vote on the subpoena. I still think that 840 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,919 Speaker 1: the criminal charges will come out of the DCUs Attorney's office. 841 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 1: Matthew Graves. I think they will be related to January sixth, 842 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:26,320 Speaker 1: So they'll be obstruction, conspiracy, tampering with witnesses evidence, something 843 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: along those lines. When do you expect that to happen, Julie, 844 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,760 Speaker 1: Like if sorry to cut you off, and I'm curious 845 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 1: when you've called your shot on this for a while, 846 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 1: when do you think the most likely time for those 847 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,239 Speaker 1: charges to come would be? I honestly thought it would 848 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: be before the election. I'm not saying that it won't be, 849 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 1: because this DJ will not adhere to any traditional customs 850 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 1: such as nothing happening sixty days before an election, which 851 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 1: they are blowing every single day. So if it's not 852 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: before the election, I'm sure it will be by the 853 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,879 Speaker 1: end of the year. But I still have no doubt 854 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: that that is eventually. We know that they had at 855 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 1: least one grand jury, uh calling in witnesses related to 856 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's January six activities. So um, you know, it's 857 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 1: as I've said before, it's not really a matter of when, 858 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 1: but excuse me, not if, but when. So I wouldn't 859 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 1: put a past him to do the week before the election, 860 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 1: quite honestly, I mean, they have no constraints, so why not, Julie, 861 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 1: you have been fantastic.
