1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 1: Welcome back in our number three Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. 2 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:09,039 Speaker 1: It is a significant news Wednesday, as many of these 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: days often are. Let's take you back into exactly what 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: has transpired. We had a very powerful press conference, as 5 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: we discussed earlier in the show, from Pete Hegseth on 6 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: the situation in Iran. We will update you on that, 7 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: but the big takeaway is that we are close to 8 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: complete and total air superiority in Iran, and that I 9 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: do believe things are going better and faster than anticipated 10 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: if they had tried to forecast how this attack was 11 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,559 Speaker 1: going to go. We'll come back to that in a 12 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 1: sec and play a couple more of those cuts from 13 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. But in Texas, as we 14 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: told many of you was likely to be the case, 15 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: we had James town Rico beat our good friend Jasmine Crockett. 16 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: It pains me, as we said earlier in the program, 17 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: to see the Texas Democrat Party engage in such blatant racism. 18 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 2: Buck, for a white man to beat a black man 19 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: like the black. 20 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: Woman like this? Can I just point out this painful 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: to my heart? Can I just point out that Clay 22 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: suddenly wearing his Crockett gear a whole lot more. I'm 23 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: seeing Crockett t shirts, Crockett sweatshirts. He says it's for 24 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: the coffee company that we own. But I thought it 25 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: was a little suspicious that right when Jasmine Crockett was 26 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: in the political fight of her life, Clay was mister 27 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: Crockett all of a sudden. I'm just saying, so, Jasmine 28 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: Crockett goes down. We talked about this earlier in the show. 29 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: We had some deep dive into it. Buck, I think 30 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: the reality is, this is kind of what you wanted. 31 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: And MSNBC or ms NOW, whatever the heck they're called, 32 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: CNN the view they're all going to be throwing money 33 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: at Jasmine Crockett to become a television personality. 34 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: Her congressional career is over. 35 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: And the other big name I would say that went down, 36 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: as we discussed earlier in the program as well, Buck, 37 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: is Dan Crinshaw. I did not know Dan Crinshaw well, 38 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: but he had quite the public profile. Have we ever 39 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: had him on the program? I think maybe we did. 40 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: I don't think so. 41 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: I think that Clay, before you and I teamed up, 42 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: I might have interviewed him one time early on, and 43 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: I remember, Look, I'm just gonna say it, there was 44 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: so much enthusiasm around because you go, oh, gosh, this 45 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: guy is a combat veteran, Navy seal, wounded veteran. You know, 46 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: this is just like what you would create in a 47 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: you know, conservative laboratory of congressional excellency, like, well, this 48 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: is the guy we want in Congress. And I have 49 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: tremendous respect obviously for what he did as a seal, 50 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: and and I none of that changes. 51 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: But man, the base turned on him, and we had 52 00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: neither you nor I have. 53 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: Look, you guys know, when we don't like somebody, I 54 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: try to be honest about it, but also be fair 55 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: about it. You know, if we don't like somebody. I 56 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: never met the guy. I have no beef with him, 57 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 1: no problem with him. So many people I know in 58 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: politics and in media despise that guy. And it just 59 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 1: strikes me as how you know, I mean, we asked 60 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: Michael Berry. Michael Berry was not holding back on it. 61 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: You can go back and listen to the interview. 62 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 2: Well, so that's the big upset. 63 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: I would say that came out of the Republican primary. 64 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: We told you that this was likely to happen as well, 65 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,839 Speaker 1: and man, get your two by fours, because I think 66 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna get even nastier. Ken Paxton and John Cornyn 67 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: basically ran dead even in the Texas Republican Senate primary. 68 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: So tall Ico has advanced that he is the Democrat nominee. 69 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: He's way more radical go figure than they have let 70 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: you know, and we will certainly dive into that race 71 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: as it gets closer to November. But in the meantime, 72 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: John Cornyn, current incumbent senator, and Ken Paxton are going 73 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: to go. Both of them around forty one, forty two 74 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: percent of the vote. Wesley Hunt, who we had on 75 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: the program yesterday, got around thirteen or fourteen percent in 76 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: third place, so he is eliminated and now tons of 77 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: money will get spent. I would imagine both Paxton and 78 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: Cornyn are going to be asking President Trump for an endorsement. 79 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: So far, President Trump has not endorsed anybody in this race. 80 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: We'll see what he does in late May, so a 81 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: little over two months from now, we will officially have 82 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: a Republican nominee. So I was texting with Buck some 83 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: as these results came in. No big surprises in Arizona, sorry, Arkansas, 84 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: or North Carolina. Our friend Michael Wattley is going to 85 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: run against former Governor Roy Cooper. We got to invite out. 86 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: We almost had him scheduled the other day. I'm sure 87 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: Michael Wattley is going to be hugely important as we 88 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: looked towards the Senate because that is a Republican seat 89 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: in North Carolina and Democrats have to flip four Senate 90 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: seats given jd Vance having the tie break buck in 91 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: order to be able to take back control of the 92 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: US Senate. We had Corny in scheduled and they just 93 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: said they had a scheduled conflict. Maybe that is the case, 94 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: but you would think he would come on this show 95 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: at some point given the primary that he's in now 96 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: you know, the extended primary, and if he doesn't, I 97 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: think it's telling us something that I will say, Look, schedule, 98 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: stuff comes up, even if it's very last minute, and 99 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: even if it's after our good friend Michael Barry throws 100 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: a roundhouse kick with his cowboy boots on right to 101 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: the face of your campaign. 102 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 3: However, However, maybe. 103 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: It was just a little change, but we'd like him 104 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: to come on at some point, we have some questions 105 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,559 Speaker 1: for mister Cornyn. Well, it's fair and again we also 106 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: invited tall Rico into Jasmine Crockett because unlike CBS, and 107 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: I do think this is a big story buck in general. Again, 108 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: the CBS attempt it may well have been the difference 109 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: maker for tall Rico, who outspent Jasmine Crockett by five 110 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: to one. I think it was twenty five million to 111 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: five million, something like that, and that added rays of 112 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: money that he got from the censorship that they claimed 113 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,679 Speaker 1: on Colbert might have been what propelled him to the victory. 114 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: I mean he won by a relatively slim amount. I 115 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: mean it was very close, and I know some of 116 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: you flipped over and voted in the in the Democrat side, 117 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: but tall Rico won by about six seven points with 118 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: ninety three percent of the vote in at least, and 119 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: I do think that that is maybe the part of 120 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: the result is that they helped rig it for him 121 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: and the Democratic I would say Clay that in the 122 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: interest of fairness, because we have invited Tallerico on, I 123 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: still would love to have Jasmine Crockett on. I willieve 124 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: if Jasmine Crockett comes on, unless there's some ethics thing 125 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: with cheese in Congress. There's all these weird you know, 126 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: ethics rules in Congress. Now you basically can't buy someone 127 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: more than a coffee, and it causes a problem. I 128 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: was gonna say, I'll send her a Crockett sweatshirt, like 129 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: I would love to have Jasmine Crockett on the show. 130 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: We would have a very fun conversation. But for James 131 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: taller Rico, I'll even give him the questions in advance. 132 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: It's like he's getting a little sneak peak of the test. 133 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: I would first want to ask him, is the future female? James, 134 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: I just want to hear what he has to say 135 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: to that, and then Clay, if you wanted to follow 136 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: up with can a man become a woman? I feel 137 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: like we'd have a robust conversation with James Tallerico about this, 138 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: and then you can ask him about whether God is 139 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: non binary, which also came up recently. 140 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 3: He said that. 141 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 2: He also said, and again he's got a lot of clothes. 142 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: I'm triggered by this. God is clearly trans, James. 143 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 2: We all know God is non binary. 144 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,119 Speaker 1: He also said that basically we should have a wide 145 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: open southern border. So again the fever dream of the 146 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: Democrat Party has been that they can flip Texas. They've 147 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: been trying to do it for a long time now. 148 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: They have not won a statewide race in the state 149 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: of Texas since nineteen ninety four. But that is at 150 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:29,559 Speaker 1: least worth contemplating how that's going to shake out. You're good, buddy, 151 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough said, boy, Republicans really blew it. Here is 152 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: cut three. How MSNBC is covering all of all of this, 153 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: the outcome in the Texas primary. 154 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: Cut three. 155 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 4: Here's yet another example. I swear, I just wish these 156 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 4: Republicans weren't so stupid. 157 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 3: I wish that. 158 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 4: Listen to me. I'm trying to help them out a 159 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: little bit here, just to make it a fair fight 160 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 4: in the fall. But what did we say? What did 161 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 4: we say? First of all, when they took Beart off 162 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 4: the air, you're gonna pay for it. They did pay 163 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 4: for it with South Park three or four days later, 164 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 4: deciding they're going to lean in even harder, right and 165 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 4: so here they try to keep Tall Rico off the show. 166 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 4: What happens they give him a boost. If you talk 167 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 4: to Jasmine Crockett, she'll say the same thing. I was 168 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 4: ad until that controversy. So the very person they were 169 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 4: trying to defeat, the very person whose message scared them, 170 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 4: is the very person who they helped win this race. 171 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: Is so his political analysis is what you would expect 172 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: from a guy who told us in twenty twenty four 173 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden was the sharpest he had ever been 174 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: in his entire life. Play this is not a surprise 175 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: that Joe Scarborough doesn't know his ass from his elbow. 176 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: This is so dumb that it honestly kind of blows 177 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: my mind that either he is really, really legitimately not 178 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: informed on this story, or or he is intentionally lying. 179 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: There's only two options here, because Republicans had nothing to 180 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: do with this, nothing at all. The Colbert Show, for 181 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: those of you have forgotten, set up a fake story 182 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: which was we're gonna have James tallerco on. CBS's lawyer said, Hey, 183 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: if you're gonna have tall Rico on, you need to 184 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: have Jasmine Crockett on as well, because she is a 185 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: contender in this race on the equal time doctrine, and 186 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: maybe arguably you should also have Republicans on. But that's 187 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: a whole nother debate, and they pitched a fit. All 188 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: they had to do was put on Jasmin Crockett too. 189 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: This is one where I think Jasmin Crockett actually is 190 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: legitimately had a rig job run against her. But this 191 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: was all a Democrat operation. They desperately wanted tall Rico. 192 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: What he's got backward is a lot of us would 193 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: have preferred Jasmine Crockett because Jasmin Crockett had a zero 194 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: percent chance of winning. I think tall Rico has a 195 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: five to ten percent chance of winning. Still whoe, but 196 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: zero to five to ten. If you gave me a 197 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: choice between the two options, and I was wanted the 198 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: Republicans to win, I'd take the zero. I'm with you, though, 199 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: I just I feel like I need to go find 200 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: a safe space and to weep some liberal tears about 201 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: all the man'splaining and the racism. I'm sorry, I thought 202 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: the future was female. James Tallerico, Joe Scarborough, Stephen Colbert. 203 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: Apparently not if we're talking Jasmine Crockett. 204 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 3: You know what, you have a. 205 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: Black woman who could be the next standard bearer of 206 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: the Democrats, and they did everything they could. They Bernie 207 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: sanders Her, So they Bernie sanders Her. They totally Bernie 208 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: sandswers her And you know what is actually also funny 209 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: about this story. On the national political stage, Kamala endorsed 210 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett on Sunday, I believe this weekend and did 211 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: a robo call and said, everybody, get out and vote 212 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: for Jasmin Crockett. Jasmine Crockett then lost, and Kamala now 213 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: has flipped and. 214 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: Endorse endorsed tall Errico. 215 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: I just think it's when you endorse a person and 216 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: then the next day you endorse the other person. Basically, 217 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: that's a tough that's a tough situation to find yourself in. 218 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: She could have just set out the whole thing. I'm 219 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: sure that Kamala's advisor has got in her ear and 220 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: they said, hey, this is another black woman who's running 221 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: for office. You need to, you know, continue to lock 222 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: down black female support, speak out for her, but do 223 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: it late so the impact will be minimal. If she loses, 224 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: people won't talk about it as much, and then immediately 225 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: flip and endorse the white guy once the black woman loses. 226 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it is very funny that we ended up 227 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: in this situation. All of the people doing absolutely fantastic 228 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: work at the IFCJ air sirens going right now across 229 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: Israel constantly basically missiles coming in from Iran, from Hezbola, 230 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: lives lost as a result. The IFCJ, they are committed 231 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: to just trying to keep as many people safe in 232 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: Israel as possible. They have large scale distributions of food 233 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: for people who are in need, they have first Day. 234 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 1: They are constantly building more bomb shelters. Now, if you're 235 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: driving down the road in Israel, you get an alert 236 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: on your phone that there are missiles coming in. This 237 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: is how people live in Israel. You just pull off 238 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: the side of the road as close as you can 239 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: to the nearest bomb shelter, and then you just find 240 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: yourself clustering in that bomb shelter with tons of people 241 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: you don't even know. That is the life that they 242 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: lead on a regular basis, just completely normal. Hey, there's 243 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: about to be missiles that land. Go get in your 244 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: bomb shelters. The IFCJ builds those four people of all 245 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: different backgrounds in Israel. You can join Buck and myself 246 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: and rush a gift to help during this time of war. 247 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: Eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ. That's eight eight 248 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: eight four eight eight if CJ. You can also go 249 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 1: online at IFCJ dot org. That's IFCJ dot. 250 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 5: Org Insanity in an Insane World. The Clay Travis and 251 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 5: Buck Sexton show. 252 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 6: I failed this in terms of in context of abortion 253 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 6: because before God comes over Mary and we have the incarnation, 254 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 6: God asks for Mary's consent, which is remarkable. I mean, 255 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 6: go back and read this in in Luke. I mean 256 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 6: the angel comes down and asks Mary if this is 257 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 6: something she wants to do, and she says, if it 258 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 6: is God's will, let it be done, let it be, 259 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,479 Speaker 6: let it happen. So to me, that is an affirmation 260 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 6: in one of our most central stories that creation has 261 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 6: to be done with consent. And so that's why I 262 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 6: that's how I come down on that side of the issue. 263 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: So there you had James Talerico back in twenty twenty five. 264 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: He's now the Democrat nominee for that setup seated Texas. 265 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: The silver tongued and serpentine tallerco Who's whose special gift, 266 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: it seems Clay, is to tell progressive Democrats that the 267 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: Bible justifies Hey, you want to train to your kids, 268 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: Well check out Matthew three seventeen. 269 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 3: You wanna I'm making that up. 270 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: Obviously, you know you want to have abortion all nine 271 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: months of a pregnancy. Obviously, all you have to do 272 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: is look up Corinthians twelve. 273 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 7: Like, this guy's whole spiel is to tell lunatics who 274 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 7: have no room for an actual God or accountability for 275 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 7: themselves in their lives, that the Bible justifies their every 276 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 7: urge to please Molik. 277 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 3: That is this guy's role in life. It's pretty disgusting. 278 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: Actually, yeah, not only that, by the way, so that 279 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: is a tough argument I would think to make for 280 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: most Texans. 281 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 2: I know. 282 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: This one is the southern border should be a giant 283 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: welcome Matt. This is from a debate with Jasmine Crockett 284 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: just back a couple of weeks ago. 285 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,479 Speaker 2: Cut one. 286 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 6: Our southern border should be like our front porch. There 287 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 6: should be a giant welcome mat out front. 288 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think solution of America. He's just he's 289 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: just saying America should stop being America. I don't even 290 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: think that you need to hardly run any other ad 291 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: other than the southern border should be a giant welcome at. 292 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: I think that ends the race in Texas, And so 293 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: I understand people are saying, oh, this is going to 294 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: be competitive, But. 295 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 2: I've heard it for too long. 296 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: We heard it all about with Beato and how he 297 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: was going to beat ted Cruz and that didn't happen, 298 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: and then we heard, oh, this is going to be 299 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: close in Texas, Trump's in trouble, and Trump won by 300 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: fourteen I think I think the state of New York 301 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: was closer to being a Trump state than Texas was 302 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: to being a Kabal estate. Now everybody needs to show up, 303 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: and you certainly are going to have to deal with 304 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: a lot of enthusiasm on the Democrat side because so 305 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: many of the Democrat base has Trump derangement syndrome. But 306 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, I just think this guy is 307 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: going to be way too radical to be elected in Texas. 308 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: And I think as more and more people become aware 309 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 1: of the things that he has said, and we just 310 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: played a couple of cuts of that, I think again 311 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: we're going to have a real battle between Cornyn and Paxton, 312 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: but ultimately that's going to be the result.

You just 339 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: heard us breaking down all of the outcome in Texas, 340 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: the big primaries there the first real opportunity to hear 341 00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 1: from voters as the midterms move closer and closer. And Buck, 342 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: let me give you a little bit of a storyline 343 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: that I think is becoming paramount. We're efforting Yale Extein, 344 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: our friend from the IFCJ. As you can imagine, there's 345 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: lots of challenges with communication going on there right now. 346 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: She may or may not be about to join us. 347 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: But I was watching this morning as I was doing 348 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 1: my prep to get ready for the show. I have 349 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: not seen MSNBC cover gas prices in the entirety of 350 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: the Trump era, because they have been coming down and 351 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: they are at historic lows. This morning I watched MSNBC. 352 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: I do it so you don't have to, and Buck, 353 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: they have started to show oil prices going up. This 354 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: is going to be the primary line of attack. I 355 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 1: think that's going to come from Democrats because they recognize 356 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: it's hard to say, well, this guy is a terrorist 357 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: who's killed you know, one thousand or more Americans as 358 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: well as tens of thousands of his own people, KAMENI, 359 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 1: and he can't ever have nuclear weapons. 360 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: But what Trump did is unacceptable, right. 361 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: That is a really difficult argument to make, and I 362 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: think Democrats are recognizing it. So their pivot is going 363 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: to be this is a bad decision and Americans are 364 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: paying the price at the pump when it comes to 365 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: gas prices. I'm just telling you this. Eventually, I believe 366 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: is going to become their primary line of attack. Now again, 367 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: historically oil and gas prices are at very record near 368 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: record lows over the last four years, but they're going 369 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,959 Speaker 1: to look at how much they go up in the 370 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: short term. Straight of horror moves, the dangers there, Iran's 371 00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: attacks on other Middle Eastern oil powers, all of that 372 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: as a sign that Trump is making things more expensive, 373 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 1: that's going to become their line of attack. You buying 374 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: or selling that as Eventually Democrats will decide that is 375 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: their way to oppose what's going on in the war. 376 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 3: Oh. 377 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: Absolutely, They're going to need an economic message, and it 378 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: has to be an attack message. They don't have anything 379 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 1: constructive to say about any of this, and They're just 380 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: hoping that people forget that everything the Democrats do when 381 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: they're in charge makes all of the problems that they 382 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: identify worse. This is the part of it that's really maddening. 383 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: They'll say, oh, well, you know, price of homes is high. 384 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: Who do you think who do you think does more 385 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: things to make it harder for people to afford homes, 386 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: Republicans or Democrats. 387 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 3: Price of gas is high? 388 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry the party that thinks that we should 389 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: all live off of windmills and solar panels. They're all 390 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 1: of a sudden so worried about the price of energy, 391 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: the price of gasoline. It's absurd, But absurdity is an 392 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: area in which Democrats excel. They have no shame, which 393 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,959 Speaker 1: means they have no limits. They can say whatever in 394 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: order to achieve power. So I think you will see 395 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: that kind of economic messaging from them. I think that 396 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: they're going to try and attack You'll notice usually they'd 397 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: be attacking healthcare. I think more people are starting to 398 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 1: realize what an actual disaster Obamacare has been, and how 399 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: the whole promise of that. Remember that huge fight we 400 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: had in the John Roberts Court saved Obamacare by changing 401 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: the language of an actual statue to match it up 402 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: with something else. All thing was just such a debacle 403 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: and it's made everything worse. And this is the reality 404 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: of it. So when you look at how they're going 405 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: to try to attack the President and his administration on economics, 406 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: it's just going to revolve around rewriting history and praying 407 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: upon the ignorance of people who are understandably frustrated. Look finances, 408 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: paying bills. The stuff is always frustrating. This is stress. 409 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: Everyone feels this stuff. People deal with it at varying levels, 410 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: but you're always thinking do I have enough for what 411 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: I need? Am I making progress? Am I falling further behind? 412 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: And the Democrats tend to get away with playing the 413 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: envy game, or rather the class warfare game. Point the 414 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: finger at somebody else. It's somebody else's fault, And in reality, 415 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 1: it is actually the Democrat system, the Democrat party, that 416 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 1: makes all this stuff harder. They're the reason for your 417 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: high taxes, They're the reason for regulations that make home 418 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: building more expensive. They're the reason for energy prices. Look 419 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: at the cost of gas in California. What else do 420 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: you have to see? So I think that the Trump 421 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: team is going to be able to put a lot 422 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: of results on the scoreboard, Clay. But this is one 423 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 1: of the great challenges we have in twenty first century America. 424 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: Sometimes reality is not enough. Well, Joe Biden became president, 425 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: for heaven's sake. Not only is reality not enough, people 426 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: have so embraced their anti Trump delusion as their personal 427 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: brand that recognizing that the choices you are making is 428 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: actually leading to a disastrous outcome is I think a 429 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: function of just how broken our political system is. Because 430 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 1: I think if you and I I really mean this, 431 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: and I think the vast majority of people out there 432 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: listening to us right now, I think if you make 433 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 1: a compelling argument that what we are arguing for is 434 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:41,719 Speaker 1: bad economically or bad culturally for the United States, I 435 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: could look at it and say, hey, you know what, 436 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: I'll reconsider my priors. I think Republicans as a group 437 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: are more rational right now, certainly than Democrats. 438 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 2: Now. 439 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean that there's not a lot of diehards 440 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: who would refuse to look at facts no matter what. 441 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 1: That's a challenge I think of our current political climate, 442 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: and also I think, frankly of social media because a 443 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: lot of people get locked into whatever algorithm they're on, 444 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 1: and they don't ever challenge their thinking because they're being 445 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: fed constantly stories that reconfirm their priors. And I think 446 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: if you go back historically and they look at social media, 447 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a I don't think it's a 448 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: coincidence that suddenly Democrats went insane right as social media 449 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: became popular and they started trying to curry favor with 450 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: everybody on social media. I mean, I saw it happen 451 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: in sports. I read a whole book about it, and 452 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: that is a cultural impact that I think is significant. 453 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: And Buck, if you know, I know we talked about this, 454 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 1: but the US men won their gold medals and then 455 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: we saw crowds overwhelmingly cheer them in New Jersey, Pittsburgh, 456 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 1: and Toronto, and also in New York City at the 457 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live. Those are not places that are big 458 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 1: Trump supporting audiences. Yet people want to cheer gold medals. 459 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: And certainly we saw it in Washington, DC when they 460 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: came out for the State of the Union. But if 461 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: you had read social media, you would have expected in 462 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: New Jersey, Pittsburgh, and Toronto that the players were going 463 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: to be drenched in booze deluge of derision. It did 464 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: not happen. And so I think to your point, unfortunately 465 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: for Democrats, they're in a situation where they believe a 466 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: lot of things that make everything worse. In fact, I 467 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: think we are going to have a conversation about this. 468 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: You know, you see the study that came out that 469 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: said the number one way to make people safer is 470 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 1: to put Republican district attorneys in office. Did you see 471 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: that study. I mean, it's not I feel like that's 472 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 1: been our mantra here for years, but now the data. 473 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: But the data says, and you know what the data reflects, 474 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 1: Republican district attorneys put bad guys behind bars for longer, 475 00:26:55,400 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: and it actually makes everybody way safer. And so it's 476 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: not just that Democrats are making poor choices, it is 477 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: that they are that that tangibly, those poor choices are 478 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,719 Speaker 1: resulting in worse outcomes. And unfortunately, because of their anti 479 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 1: Trump delusion, they're making poor choices and not even recognizing 480 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: that they are the instrument of their own demise. 481 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 3: It's all true. 482 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: Does make you wonder sometimes what would have to happen 483 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 1: for Democrats on issues like crime. For Democrats on what 484 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: would have to happen for them to admit that they're wrong. 485 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: You know, we we have seen what happens in all 486 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: of these sorts, every sorrow spacked prosecutor, and that's a 487 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: real thing. They tried to shut this down like, oh, 488 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: it's some it's a scare tactic of the right. No, 489 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 1: there are prosecutors who got money from Soros affiliated or 490 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 1: Soros financed NGOs, and they realize this was a very 491 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: effective way to undermine law and order and bring about 492 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: some form of anarcho tyranny in Democrat enclaves and even 493 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: some non Democrat enclaves because they're able to sneak in 494 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 1: some left wing district attorney, right, and so we see 495 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: what ends up happening. 496 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 3: It's worse for everybody. 497 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 1: Except the very small percentage of the population and I 498 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: mean very small percentage that are effectively responsible for all 499 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 1: of the major crimes. 500 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 3: There have been articles played New York City. 501 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,719 Speaker 1: I think it was a former Attorney General bar did 502 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: an analysis from the DOJ's numbers that in New York City, 503 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: if you would arrest I think it was three or 504 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: four thousand people. And when I say arrest, if you 505 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: would incarcerate three to four thousand people in the five boroughs, 506 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: which has eight point five million people. Statistically, violent crime 507 00:28:56,080 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: would plummet seventy percent seven zero. This is a huge win, 508 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: just waiting for someone to grasp it. But no, they 509 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: won't do it. No, they don't like the demographics of 510 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: who's going to be disproportionately incarcerated, and they ignore the 511 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: demographics of the lives that will be disproportionately saved. 512 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 3: Which is the same by the way, in these major cities. 513 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: I will just point out that everybody told Trump when 514 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: he surged support in Washington, DC, that DC didn't need it, right, 515 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: the DC was safe. That was the talking point that 516 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: went out and that it would never work. And I'll 517 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: look up the numbers and I'll hit you with him 518 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: tomorrow to make sure. But through February, murders had declined 519 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: by nearly seventy percent compared to last year. Memphis, I mean, 520 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: we can probably we should probably talk about Memphis and 521 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: take some calls from Memphi ends tomorrow. Put a star 522 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: in this buck. Memphis is like a completely different city 523 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: New Orleans. What the President has done is kind of remarkable, 524 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 1: and no one is talking about it. And when the 525 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: President does something that really has great results, you sometimes 526 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: find out because the story just vanishes. 527 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 2: Right, nobody's talking, all of a sudden. 528 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 3: All of a sudden. 529 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: All right, Fast Growing Trees is America's largest, most trusted 530 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: online nursery trees, shrubs, and plants shipped right to your home. 531 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, Carrie is super excited about this 532 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: new sponsor we have.

I am telling you your 606 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: grandkids are going to live in a world where most 607 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: people do not drive vehicles. And I feel even more 608 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: that's the case the more time I spend letting my 609 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: Tesla self drive. It is absolutely incredible. And I'm telling 610 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: you I'm living in the future and some of y'all 611 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: are living in the past. I'm gonna go to war 612 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: on this one. You heard some of the talkbacks the 613 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: very funny, but this is one that I'm one hundred 614 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 1: percent confident. 615 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 2: I am right on. 616 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to. 617 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: I gotta, I gotta come check out your Tesla. 618 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 3: I've never driven one or been driven in by one. 619 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 3: I've only been in one. 620 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: Where somebody was actually operating. But see, this is my 621 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: my vision is that I'll be in self driving Tesla, 622 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 1: drinking my Pellegrino, listening perhaps to some Chopin or some 623 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 1: of you. You're a Pellegrino argument is not helping me 624 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: on the tesla argument, but a lot of tesla self 625 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: driving people like Pellegrino. Let's be honest. Clay, Okay, I'm 626 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: sorry you're getting You're getting just swooped in with this 627 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 1: one a little too far to say that Clay is 628 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:54,839 Speaker 1: a pistachio crembrulega. 629 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 2: That's me. 630 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 1: I take the heat on that one. But then again, 631 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 1: he's a rose end up bring Angel drinker. So as 632 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 1: Kaylee mcinenny, our good friend, has had to point out 633 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: to the public, Clay wears many hats. Sometimes he's sec 634 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: football bro getting high fives, drinking out of a red 635 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: Solo cup. Sometimes he's drinking whispering Angel out of a 636 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: fluted glass. All I will point out is that there 637 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 1: was no other alcohol on the table, and as the 638 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: gentleman that I am, I was pouring drinks for everyone else, 639 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 1: including myself. We will continue to update you on the 640 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: Iran situation. The battle going on in in Texas is 641 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: going to continue to grow, but again cautiously optimistic. As 642 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 1: we talked about in the first couple of hours, the 643 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: data is reflecting that Iran's ability to fire weapons is 644 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: continuing to be degraded, and as that occurs, more and 645 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 1: more air superiority coming. And so I think things are 646 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: going again about as well as we could hope that 647 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: they are going. And I think the Trump team is 648 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: absolute on it. They understand the implications here of what 649 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: would happen if this went too far, we get too 650 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: deep into this. I think they have, with so many things, 651 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,240 Speaker 1: earned a degree of trust. Let them cook, as they say, 652 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 1: Let heg Seth and Trump cook. 653 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 3: They know what they're doing on this one. I have faith. 654 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: If that changes, we will certainly be the first to 655 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: say that on this show. But until that, my friends, great. 656 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 3: Hanging with you here. We'll be back with you on Thursday. 657 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 3: We'll talk to you then
