1
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The border crisis continues

2
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: and Democrats are showing that they want to decriminalize, at

3
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: least some of them want to decriminalize illegal entry into

4
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: this country. This is a leap toward open borders. We've

5
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: got a lot for you on that and also the

6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: latest in the scandals that the Democrats are covering up.

7
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: That are more coming up on The Buck Sexton Show.

8
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show where the mission where

9
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

10
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: Make no mistake America, You're a great American. Again, the

11
00:00:51,560 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show begins. He's a great guy. Now Mexico

12
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: is now stopping people coming very easy for them to do,

13
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: stopping people coming in through Mexico. Let's see if they

14
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: keep it done. If they keep doing that now, if

15
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: they don't, or if we don't make a deal with Congress,

16
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: the border is going to be closed, or we're going

17
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: to close large sections of the border, maybe not all

18
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: of it, but it's the only way we're getting a response.

19
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: And I'm totally ready to do it, and I will

20
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: say this many people want me to do it. Welcome

21
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: to the Buck Sexton Show. President Trump still pushing the

22
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: idea that he may shut down the border. I don't

23
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: think that this is the way he's going to go,

24
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: and I don't think it will solve or even necessarily

25
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: help on the problem all that much. But the man's

26
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: trying to do something. There are no good options available

27
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: right now because of the laws that exist on the books,

28
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: because of the situation on the ground at the border,

29
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: and because one political party no longer believes that we

30
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 1: should have immigration laws. One political party no longer believes

31
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: that there's anything wrong with illegal immigration. Really, I mean,

32
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: they won't say this out loud, but there's plenty of data.

33
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: I can point you to, plenty of evidence that this

34
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: is in fact how they feel. Let me bring you

35
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: up to speed on what is going on with Joaquin Castro. Now, well,

36
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: Keene Castro is someone who and this just came out today,

37
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: he's running for president. He's not one of the top contenders,

38
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: but he's a congressman from Texas I believe, who is

39
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: running for president and has put out and is one

40
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: of the first Democrats to put out what his plan

41
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: is on immigration. And here's the very shortened version of

42
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: what could be a longer conversation and will be. But

43
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: he wants to decriminalize illegal entry into the United States,

44
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: all right, Julian Castro wants to make sure that if

45
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: somebody comes into America illegally, they are no longer to

46
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: be arrested and treated as No, it's a misdemeanor, it's

47
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: a federal misdemeanor to enter, but it is still a crime.

48
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: This would now be the equivalent, legally speaking of a

49
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: civil offense a parking ticket. At the moment when the

50
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: country is in the grips of the biggest immigration, illegal

51
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: immigration crisis, perhaps in its history, because remember, it's not

52
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: just the people crossing now, it's they say, eleven more

53
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: like twenty million illegals already in the country. And what

54
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: that does to the political parties and to our our

55
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: cultural and political and social fabric in this country and

56
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: rule of law, and you know that's always looming in

57
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: the background. You already have an enormous population of legal

58
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: aliens living in the country, enormous and now you have

59
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: a huge surge that'll be a million more for the

60
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 1: year if it continues at the current rate. And what

61
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: do what do the Democrats do? Oh, that's right, they

62
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: start to talk about how we should make it even easier,

63
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: we should make the penalties even less, and right now

64
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: there's basically no penalty. It would be in the Dallas

65
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: News was supporting on this today that that Castro's plan

66
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: would be turning this into a civil, non criminal violation

67
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: illegal entry. So it's like it'd be like a like

68
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: a parking ticket situation. Now, and this is where I'm

69
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: telling you I see it right now, this is where

70
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is going. They're they're going to do

71
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 1: everything they can to further weaken immigration enforcement. They're going

72
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: to try to eliminate any real hope of interior enforcement

73
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 1: against illegal alien illegal aliens, and then illegal entry at

74
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: the border will be deprioritized as any kind of law

75
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: enforcement issue, and they're just going to say, let's just

76
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 1: process people as fast as we can bring more of

77
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: them into the country and completely leave law enforcement I

78
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,799
Speaker 1: mean in the lurch. I mean, if all of a sudden,

79
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: a legal entry is not really a crime, you have

80
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: to ask the question, why does border patrol even exist?

81
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: Then border patrol shouldn't be out there. You know, does

82
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: border patrol's mission matter? If they're not policing crimes? What

83
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: are they doing down there. Oh, they're just there to

84
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: prevent drugs from flowing into the country. There's more than that,

85
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: isn't there. You know, we are being forced to address

86
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: a fundamental question about the future of this country, which

87
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 1: is should we have borders at all? The Democrats want

88
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: to say no, but they're not ready to say no.

89
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: They do not believe that we should be excluding people

90
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: from the country. They do not think that there's anything

91
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: wrong with illegal entry into the United States. And they

92
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: have gone so far left and so out of the

93
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: mainstream on this issue that I can't see how twenty

94
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: twenty turns into on immigration anything more than a fight

95
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: over It's just going to be a fight over amnesty.

96
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: They're going to offer amnesty to everybody who's here. That's

97
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: what they're gonna want to do. They're gonna call it

98
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: a pathway to citizenship, but they know that they're a

99
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: Lynsky I'd approach here of overwhelming The system is going

100
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: to be true not just that our southern border, it's

101
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: going to be true of the supposed pathway. The pathway

102
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: is going to be a conveyor belt. All you have

103
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: to do is be on it and you'll get to

104
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: the end, which means citizenship here to tell me that

105
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: people that are in the country that you don't have

106
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: English proficiency, proven to the government, that don't pay back

107
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: taxes when most of them would actually get money from

108
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: the government because they'll make enough money to pay taxes,

109
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: so they're not gonna pay into the system. They're not

110
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: gonna pay any fine, They're not all this is all nonsense.

111
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: We went through this before we Reagan signed an amnesty

112
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: back in the eighties, and they were still here in

113
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: cases twenty years later, or people who said that they

114
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: were they should have been covered by the amnesty, or

115
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: there was some aspect of it, and we were promised

116
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: that it would be it would stop after that. You know,

117
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: it was for a few million people the amnesty. I

118
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: forgot three or four million. I think it would stop

119
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: after that. Edn't think out words. It only got bigger.

120
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: Democrats want to want the incentives to come into this country,

121
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: even even stronger than they had been in the past,

122
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: even stronger than they have been before this. So we

123
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: do not have partners in addressing the crisis. We have

124
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: actually one side that wants to figure this out, the Republicans,

125
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that they're particularly adept or skilled

126
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: at it. But then on the other side, you've got

127
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: people that just want to perpetuate exactly what's going on.

128
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: And that's why you're going to just see the continuation

129
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: of all this dysfunction. We're going to see a real

130
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: lack I think of well, there'll be a lack of

131
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: honesty and the way the Democrats talk about this, but

132
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: this is we're focusing on the issue. And the last

133
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: week I was saying, we need more focus, we need

134
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: more focus. Now here we are and you know, Trump's

135
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: last car to play seems to be shutting down the border.

136
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: Here's Sarah Howkaby Sanders saying just that play fourteen. The

137
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: President's not threatening. The President's taking his job as the

138
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: commander in chief very seriously in terms of protecting the

139
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: American people. Everyone wants to talk about the cost of

140
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: doing that. That is certainly, again not something we want

141
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: to happen. The President's the one that is responsible for

142
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: the last two years of economic growth, economic boom, and

143
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: the number of jobs that we have in this country.

144
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: We don't want to see that hurt. But at the

145
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: same time, the president's number one responsibility is to protect

146
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: American life. Democrats may not care about that. They may

147
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,679
Speaker 1: be perfectly fine watching women and children exploited as they

148
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: make the treacherous journey up from the up from the

149
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 1: South across the southern border. They may be perfectly fine

150
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: seeing babies frankly killed right up until the moment of birth.

151
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: But this president isn't. He takes his job of protecting

152
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: American life very seriously, and he's gonna do what it

153
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 1: takes to make sure that happens right. Shutting down the

154
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: border would at least be a demonstration of resolve from

155
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 1: the president and focus on the issue. But I'm telling you,

156
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 1: the pressure would be too great and he'd have to

157
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 1: relent very quickly. It would not last long, and it

158
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't solve the problem. It just gets people to focus

159
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: on the problem. This is the biggest challenge the country,

160
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: imminent challenge the country faces right now what to do

161
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: about the southern border. Who is showing leadership on this

162
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: other than President Trump? I can think of very few people,

163
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: and that is really unsettling. We have more on this

164
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: border issue, and a whole lot more coming up in

165
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: the show. Team stay with Me, give us any money

166
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: to fix it. They won't change the law to fix it.

167
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: So we're gonna do the best with what we have,

168
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 1: and if that means pulling people off the ports of

169
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: entry to put them out on the border where there's

170
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: no wall, we will absolutely do that. There's a lot

171
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: of good ways to help solve this problem. Congress could

172
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: do it, but they're not going to. Mexico could help

173
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: us do it. They need to do a little bit more.

174
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: Honduras could do more, Nicaragua could do more. El Salvador

175
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: could do more. And if we're going to give these

176
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: countries hundreds of millions of dollars, we would like them

177
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: to do more. They're not going to do more, though, folks,

178
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: I wish we're not the case. I'd like to tell

179
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: you that things are looking good and there's going to

180
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: be some real change on the horizon. That the the

181
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 1: other partners that we should have here in Mexico, Honduras,

182
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: Nicaragua or Salvador, Guatemala, the Democrat Party in our own country,

183
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: that they would seek to in some way, in some

184
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: way that is meaningful, stem the flow of migrants. I

185
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: mean this mass movement of people which is what we

186
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: are in the mid stuff This is not a normal

187
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: immigration issue. We are at the beginning of an immigration,

188
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: an illegal alien tsunami in this country. That's what is happening.

189
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: People have called it an invasion, that's all. It's not

190
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 1: a military invasion. It's an illegal alien invasion. That is

191
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: what's going on here. And if you don't think that,

192
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: I'm giving it to you Stradium though I was down

193
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: in our passa last week, is you know, reporting on

194
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: this issue and talking to Border Patrol about this. Here's

195
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: the Border Patrol Council VP telling us just how serious

196
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: it is. Plate twelve. They're definitely at a crisis and

197
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: it's an emergency. You know, we welcome more agents coming

198
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: down here to the southern border and assisting. But in

199
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: the end, you know, something needs to be done about

200
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: the overflow of these individuals that are coming into the country.

201
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:55,239
Speaker 1: And if there's other countries that are facilitating this invasion,

202
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: they obviously need to step up to the plate and

203
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: start doing something about it. You notice what he says,

204
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: an invasion facilitating an invasion. That is the Border Patrol

205
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: Council Vice President who is just calling it like he

206
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: sees it and not mincing words. Now you get into

207
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: this back and forth, and I've mentioned Julian Castro before here,

208
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: you know, you know he Castro is saying that everything

209
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: that the Trump administration is trying to do is a

210
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: bad idea. I play thirteen. The idea that you would

211
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 1: close the border or that you would cut off aid

212
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: to these very countries where people are fleeing and coming

213
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: to the United States is downright stupid. It's the wrong

214
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: thing to do. If you close off the border, you're

215
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: just going to hurt jobs in the United States. Okay,

216
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: but what does mister what does Representative Castro think we

217
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: should do? Oh, we know what he thinks we should do,

218
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: which is just not enforced immigration law anymore, no longer illegal.

219
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: Let people just come into the country. It's a it's

220
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: a parking ticket. It's no big deal. This guy's running

221
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: for president, folks. Okay, this is not I'm not picking

222
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: some in a random Internet troll and saying, so this

223
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: is what the left believes this guy is. If not

224
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: a serious presidential contender, I think a lot of people

225
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: of him as a very serious VP contender. I mean,

226
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: he's young, and you know, the optics of Castro on

227
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: the ticket to the Democrats look good. But while he's

228
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: just trashing the Trump administration's desire to do something here,

229
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: Border agent Raoul or Tez is just reminding everybody that

230
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: this thing, this situation going on at the border is

231
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: out of control. Play fifteen at double our capacity right now.

232
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: I don't have to have enough medics. I don't know,

233
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: have enough border troll agents to ensure that these folks

234
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 1: are getting processed within the forty eight hours that we

235
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: should be processing them. We're going to keep people in

236
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: custody longer, our agents are getting assaulted. Potentially could be

237
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: a liability where even one of the individuals that are

238
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,239
Speaker 1: in custody could be assaulted in detension facilities that are overcrowded.

239
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: I don't know who else we have to hear it

240
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: from that this is a crisis, that this is something

241
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: that cannot be handled, that cannot be dealt with right

242
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: now now. I just wonder who who it is that

243
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: that the Democrats would believe, what authority could be point

244
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: to here if that's not enough. J Johnson, Obama's DHS secretary,

245
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: is like, oh no, no, this is definitely a crisis.

246
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: Place sixteen. As Kevin McLean and the Commissioner of CVP

247
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: pointed out on Tuesday, there were four thousand apprehensions one

248
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: day alone, four thousand run pace this month for one

249
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: hundred thousand apprehensions. The highest we saw on my watch

250
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: was May twenty fourteen, sixty five thousand. So this is

251
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: a crisis. It's very diff only a crisis, yep, it

252
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: is very definitely a crisis. Now, you will remember the

253
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: media lied about this for the two months or so

254
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: leading up to our current discussion. It's not a crisis.

255
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: It's not a crisis. Oh no, it is a crisis.

256
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: The numbers don't lie, the people working the issue don't lie.

257
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: And now that we're trying to trying to come up

258
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: with some way of dealing with this, some way of

259
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: stopping this invasion as it was called, this tsunami as

260
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: I like to call him, in just this, this enormous

261
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: tidal wave of illegal entry and illegal activity. What the

262
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: Democrats do? They undermine and criticize Trumpet at every juncture.

263
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: They have no constructive solutions whatsoever. In fact, they're solutions.

264
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: The things that they want to do and propose would

265
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: only make it worse because the Democrats have shifted so

266
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: far left on him ration I mean they are now

267
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: a party that is a day facto open borders party.

268
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: You know, the law can be whatever it is. I mean,

269
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: you can tell me as much as you want that

270
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: the law right now says, if you're an illegal alien

271
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: in the United States and you are to be deported,

272
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: that is what the law states. Okay, but illegal aliens

273
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: get invited to Democrats by Democrats for the State of

274
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: the Union, address illegal aliens, march proudly in the streets

275
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: and say, we demand rights, we demand this, we demand

276
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: that they're not They're not being deported. It's not happening.

277
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: So the law on that issue doesn't really matter. So

278
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: while you could say, back, but look at all the

279
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: infrastructure and all the stuff, when all the laws we

280
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: have at the border right now, I say to you, yeah,

281
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: but they're not it's not working. People are getting into

282
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: the country who are not supposed to be in the country,

283
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: who are abusing the system. They're doing it in huge numbers.

284
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: They know they're doing it. It's not working. We have

285
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: a near open border situation, and you know, Trump is

286
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: trying some pretty radical stuff here, don't I don't think

287
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: that shutting down the boarder will work because there will

288
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 1: be tremendous economic pressure. If he does that, there will

289
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: be people saying, my business is getting crushed. Now, dude,

290
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: you can't do this, or mister President, not dude. But

291
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Congress won't act. I'm sitting

292
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: Are we going to just keep looking at this problem

293
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: get worse and worse, the swell of the you know,

294
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: the surge of people get larger and larger the southern border.

295
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: I think the answer is probably yes. I think that

296
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 1: what you end up having here is maybe some bipartisan

297
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: bill come out of the Congress to just increase the resources.

298
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,239
Speaker 1: But if you increase the resources, all you're doing is

299
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: making people more comfortable and adding to the speed with

300
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: which they will be under the current asylum law introduced

301
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 1: in the United States, never to be seen again by

302
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 1: the authorities. So you know, I wish I could. I mean,

303
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: I know what the answers are. I just also know

304
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: that the people in charge aren't going to do anything

305
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: for that. They're not going to do anything to solve

306
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: the situation, which is very disheartening. Let's talk about red

307
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 1: flag laws and Second Amendment sanctuaries. This has now come

308
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 1: up because of what's happening in Colorado, but it does

309
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: have ramifications for the Second Amendment and for folks across

310
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: the country because of well the one. There's the gun

311
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: rights aspect, but then there's just also what happens when

312
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: nullification of law occurs in response to what is a

313
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: perceived unconstitutional overreach. What happens when people no longer have

314
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: respect that the other side is acting on or has

315
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: the expectation the other side is acting on good faith

316
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 1: when it comes to the way that they're right laws

317
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: and then trying to enforce laws. So you got a

318
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: sheriff in Colorado who has said that he would rather

319
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: go to jail. It's got a lot of attention to

320
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: rather go to jail than enforce a new gun controlled

321
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: bill that has been passed by the legislature in the

322
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: state of Colorado, which as we know, is a purple states.

323
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: You get some very very democrats stuff gone to Denver,

324
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, very democrat, and yet there's also some red

325
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: areas of Colorado too. And you have these red flag

326
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 1: laws now a red flag law. I think they exist

327
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: in fifteen different states right now. Guess what, mostly blue

328
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: Democrats states from what I understand, But you have these

329
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: red flag laws where a law enforcement officer or an

330
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: individual I believe, I think you have to be a

331
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: you might have to be a family member. But there's

332
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: individuals can go forward and say to a judge that

333
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: someone is a threat, that their firearms, firearms that they

334
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 1: have in their possession, or a threat, and they can

335
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 1: be taken away. Now, this is on many levels, both

336
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 1: you know, reasonable and unreasonable, or reasonable and concerning. You know,

337
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: it's reasonable because you'd say yourself, Hold on a second,

338
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: I mean a temporary it's effectively a temporary restraining order,

339
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: which I've talked about in the past, and I can

340
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: see some wisdom to this as long as it's very

341
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 1: clearly spelled out. But and and and is respectful of

342
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: the rights of law biding gun owners. But it is either.

343
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 1: Problem here is that what you really have is an

344
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 1: open door for abuse. I mean, the problem that you

345
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: run into is that one this is going to be

346
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: almost an entirely ineffective I mean, you know, this is

347
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: you're hoping that the one person that you're trying to

348
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: stop from doing something bad with a gun, that they're

349
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: going to go to the court in time to stop him.

350
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: And you know, they'll tell you all of this might stopt.

351
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: Shootings are listening, very very unlikely. So from an effectiveness standpoint,

352
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: I think it's it's very it's dubious. But from a rights,

353
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 1: from a Second Amendment standpoint, you are on just the

354
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: order of a judge losing your Second Amendment rights without

355
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: the ability to defend yourself. I don't mean defend yourself

356
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: with the Second Amendment, I mean without the if they

357
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,640
Speaker 1: convince the judge in your absence that you are a danger,

358
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: they can take Now, the laws are a little different

359
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: state to state twos, and this Colorado one is what

360
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: I'm focused on right now. But they can take your

361
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: guns away or your gun away, and I think we

362
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: all know that, whether we're talking about a contentious personal

363
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: relationship or you know, there's just any number of ways

364
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: that this could be abused. And so I understand, I

365
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: fundamentally understand why you would have someone who's a sheriff,

366
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: for example in Colorado, just says, look, I'm not going

367
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: to do this. I'm not going to take I'm not

368
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: going to go into someone's home who has not been

369
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: accused of a crime. We gotta remember this is not

370
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: about being a crime This is about somebody who's just

371
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: a danger to themselves or others. This is an entirely

372
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: mental health oriented diagnosis that people who don't have a

373
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 1: background of that are going to be making decisions on.

374
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: And it's essentially a PreCrime removal of or you know,

375
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: I don't know if you call it pre crime, but

376
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: you know it's a pre crime removal of a second

377
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: Amendment right from somebody. Now it is temporary. You can

378
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: challenge it. You know there's a fourth what does it now?

379
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: The comtat of version quote would allow family members or others.

380
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: See it is open to others to petition a judge

381
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 1: to remove people's guns that they're deemed an extreme risk

382
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: to themselves or others. If the judge agrees, each person

383
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 1: would lose the right to purchase or possess firearms for

384
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty four days. They would be able

385
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: to file a protest for request to order to have

386
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: the order reversed. You know, this is what I mean.

387
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,239
Speaker 1: You know, you're this is like what people say, Oh,

388
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: if you're on the no fly list, you shouldn't be

389
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 1: able to have a gun. Well, the no fly list

390
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: is not an adjudicated list it's just a bureaucratic list.

391
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: And this is a judge who would be able to say,

392
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: you know what, you you are no longer able to

393
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: own a gun because these people, and it's not clear

394
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: necessarily who the people are in this instance, these people

395
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: say you should not have one, that you are a

396
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 1: danger to yourself or to others. So if somebody's just

397
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: really sad and you know, maybe having a little too much,

398
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: a little too much of Grandpa's old cough medicine, little

399
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: too much scotch late at night, you know, and they

400
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: own a firearm, is someone going to be able to say, well,

401
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: they shouldn't own that firearm. They could do something bad

402
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: with it. I think that this opens up problems, and

403
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: I don't think it really solves many problems. I unlike

404
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: a lot of other gun control measures, though, I at least,

405
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: and this is kind of how I started off this discussion,

406
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: I at least think that this one, by proponents of it,

407
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: some proponents of it, at least is intended in good faith.

408
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: This isn't a completely this isn't a worthless idea. This

409
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 1: isn't in a band bump stocks which okay do nothing,

410
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,199
Speaker 1: but you know, bum stocks and I know some of

411
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: you don't even like the band of the bump stocks,

412
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: and you've written I've gotten I've read your emails. I

413
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: am very aware that you think the bump stock band

414
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: because it's really banning a style of firing a weapon.

415
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: It's like banning eating with your left hand with a

416
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: fork instead of your right. I mean, you can't, you know,

417
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 1: a bump stock is not really something that changes the

418
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: internal mechanism at all of the rifle, as you know anyway.

419
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: But then you also that so that's at the at

420
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: the gun control level of this, there's some some nuance

421
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: and some different layers. Um. But then you get to, though,

422
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: what happens when you start having sheriffs you say, I'm

423
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: just not gonna I'm not going to comply with that.

424
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: You get a sense of the gun the real gun

425
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: grabbers in this country who want to just find a way.

426
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 1: And we saw what happened from the anti gun left

427
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: after the New Zealand massacre, the Mosque massacre that happened.

428
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: The left is always looking for a way, always looking

429
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 1: for an opening to try and eliminate, you know, guns

430
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 1: from private hands in this country. I mean, and yet

431
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: it's such a far fetched idea logistically, never mind constitutionally

432
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: and legally that it's it's hard to take it seriously

433
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: other than we know they have the desire. But you

434
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,360
Speaker 1: all know this, and a lot of you are from

435
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: parts of the country where this is much more true

436
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: than certainly where I live in DC, were very, very

437
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: very few people owned guns. The federal government going door

438
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: to door to take people's guns would be disastrous in

439
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 1: a lot of ways, and in ways that I don't

440
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 1: have to spell out to you, But in a local

441
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: law enforcement sheriffs and local police departments deciding that they

442
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 1: won't go along with this just goes to show you

443
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: how meaning they won't go along in this case with

444
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 1: this red flag law, that there's not a sense of

445
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: good faith from the other side on this issue, and

446
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: that there's now the debate over guns has become so

447
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: toxic and so politicized, people just would prefer to non

448
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: law enforcement, would prefer to non comply in some in

449
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: some instances, you know, and this is why when I

450
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: talk about the erosion of legal standards that are rooted

451
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: in principle and rooting in playing understanding of the law,

452
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, there there are ramifications to this stuff, you know,

453
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: the same way. And Democrats like to play this game

454
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: a lot where they'll just, I mean, DACA is effectively

455
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: executive branch nullification of immigration law. That's what it is.

456
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: That's what President Obama did. And when you start to

457
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: see one side do this just in order to keep

458
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: pace with the overreach that you're seeing from your political opponents,

459
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: it becomes then more likely that you, as a Republican,

460
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: as a conservat you'll say, you know what, well, we're

461
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 1: just not going to enforce this law. It's like when

462
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: I say, okay, we're not going to enforce immigration law,

463
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 1: maybe we should enforce the income tax either, and see

464
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 1: how long that works for us. Oh buck, you can't

465
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 1: do that. You know, well, the same the same thinking

466
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: that tells people that you can have deferred action for

467
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: childhood arrivals, because Obama says so that that same thinking

468
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: could be, well, we just think that the irs should prioritize,

469
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: you know, only people who have stolen more than ten

470
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 1: million dollars from the government should be prosecuted. Everybody else

471
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 1: you get a warning and a request for payment. Everybody else.

472
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: That actually probably sounds like a pretty good system to me.

473
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 1: You know the first time around, you okay, send us

474
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: our money. Right. No one goes to prison the first

475
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: time unless you've stolen, you know, more than a million

476
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: or more than ten million from the government. And even

477
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: then the prison sentence shouldn't be very long, because you

478
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 1: can tell. Is where I start to turn it a

479
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: little bit of a radical anarchist because I hate paying

480
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: taxes and it's about to be tax season here. It

481
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: is tax season, Oh gosh day when everyone Americans should

482
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: be forced to send a check to the government. Just

483
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: for your purpose. We'll be right back. Say we're at

484
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 1: Florida International University talking to students about their opinions of

485
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: socialism and if they support a socialist GPA policy, would

486
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: they be willing to share their high GPA with people

487
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: that have a low GPA? After all, it's all about equality.

488
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 1: Which would you rather have in America? Socialism or capitalism?

489
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: I would say socialism. How do you view the word

490
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: socialism favorably or unfavorably? I guess I would go with favorably.

491
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 1: I'd rather people have that. See opportunity. It's a lot

492
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: of excess in America. The main idea of socialism being

493
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 1: that people at the top are doing their fair share

494
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: to help people at the bottom, trying to prevent disparity

495
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: of income and trying to prevent excess as you called it,

496
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: and so on campus, if there's a GPA disparity where

497
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: there's people to bottom with the poor GPA, would you

498
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: support a policy or people at the top spread the

499
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,959
Speaker 1: wealth and give that GPA to people to bottom, give like,

500
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 1: help them get a better GPA. I'm all for helping.

501
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: I wouldn't give like, oh, let me just give you

502
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: so much point. But it's about being fair, right, we

503
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: got to help people to bottom. I've fought a lot

504
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: of sleep, so I don't know if I will be fair.

505
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: It's hard. If I guess, it would be kind of

506
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 1: like hypocritical for me to say no, yea that those

507
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: are our friends from from campus Reform asking on a

508
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: campus because it's campus reform. You know, do you do

509
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: you support socialism? And a lot of kids say yes

510
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,719
Speaker 1: these days. I mean when I say kids, these are

511
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: young adults. These are people who, generally speaking on a

512
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: campus can vote. And I just saw some polling data.

513
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 1: It was from an old poll, but you know, something

514
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: like forty of the people in this poll who are millennials,

515
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: if memory serves, think that socialism is a better Socialism

516
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: is better than capitalism. This is a theory that is growing.

517
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't long ago that I think it

518
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 1: would have been considered completely bizarre to hear anybody on

519
00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: a college campus walking around saying that socialism is better

520
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: than capitalism for students, for professors a little different. There

521
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 1: are these Marxist professors walking around. But you know, we've

522
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: gotten a bit far from the fall of the Soviet

523
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: Union and the lesson that the world and unfortunately many,

524
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: many hundreds of millions of people had to learn the

525
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: hard way, the lesson of what comes from from socialism.

526
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: But I think it's interesting to watch how the Democrats

527
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: have to grapple with whether they're just going to be

528
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: honest about what they wanted for twenty twenty, whether where

529
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 1: they're going to run as open democratic socialists because that's

530
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: what the platform is. You know, Medicare for all and

531
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: these other Green New Deal program and you know, you

532
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 1: look at free college and this is this is all

533
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: what you would expect in a European welfare state. I'll

534
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: note that the president did and I you heard a

535
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: bit of the skepticism in my voice about this for

536
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: the last week or so, when all of a sudden

537
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: healthcare has come up, presidents now said that a healthcare

538
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: repeal and replace or reform or whatever it is they're

539
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 1: gonna do it is not going to happen till after

540
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election. It's probably the right move because

541
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: they didn't seem like they were ready for this public debate. Again,

542
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: they didn't seem like they're ready for this fight, and

543
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: that's why they're backing off it, which which is smart.

544
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: I think let's focus on the economy, focus on immigration,

545
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: on problems where the Democrats don't really have a leg

546
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: to stand on, so to speak. Trump, they got rid

547
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: of the Congress, got rid of the individual mandate penalty.

548
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: I mean, there have been some things done. They have

549
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 1: worked to try and lower the price of prescription drugs,

550
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: very very important problem to tackle, and yet they don't

551
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: really seem to understand that if all people here about

552
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: a healthcare reform is that you can stand your parents'

553
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: insurance until you're twenty six, and that people with prexisting

554
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: conditions will be covered. Oh and a lot of people

555
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: that have insurance now would lose it under their plan,

556
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: even though most of them would go back to having

557
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: other plans, and you know, the ones that have any

558
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: kind of a private plan and the ones that are

559
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: on Medicaid expansion. I mean, Medicaid is a very ineffective

560
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: healthcare program and a very expensive one in addition to that.

561
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: So there should be better ways, and states experimenting to

562
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: cover people who would need Medicaid would be a better move,

563
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: giving states greater control. But this is they're not The

564
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: Republicans were not ready for this one, and I could

565
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: sense it, and I think that they're making the right

566
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: move by at least for now, shelving this debate. Because

567
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: if you're going to come out, don't let the Democrats replay,

568
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: you know, twenty twelve. Don't let the Democrats come out

569
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 1: with the same talking points and win on this one.

570
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: And let's focus on socialism. I mean, let's really have

571
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: that debate. Let's really have a discussion about whether this

572
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: country should increasingly brace the idea that there is a

573
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: basic need that the government has to fulfill to take

574
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 1: from some to give to others because it's the right

575
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: thing to do according to the people doing the taking,

576
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: that the government should be and if we're going to

577
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: have a more classical definition of socialism, the government is

578
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: in control of the means of production. We're a ways

579
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: away from that, but we're increasingly in a place where

580
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: the government certainly is in control of the distribution of

581
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: what is produced, or the government has greater control over

582
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 1: that than it has in the past. And I do

583
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: want twenty twenty to be something of a referendum on socialism.

584
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: I want to be because then it's also referendum on

585
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: statism and on big government and on unconstitutional overreach by

586
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: federal authority. You know, that's that all gets tied into

587
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 1: this debate over socialism. Let's make it, you know, a

588
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: contest between MAGA and the Sanders AOC vision of the future.

589
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: That's what I'm hoping happens. So we'll continue to focus

590
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,720
Speaker 1: on that big hour two coming up. My friend Andy

591
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: McCarthy from National Review is going to join us to

592
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 1: tell us what happens now. Mullaprobe is over. But there's

593
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: this fight over the full report. Oh, they have to

594
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: see the full report. What will that mean? Will the

595
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: grand jury information get released? Will there'll be fights over this?

596
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: How does executive privilege way in on what information we

597
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 1: can see, and that's you know, And also I just

598
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 1: want to want to ask him about whether the president

599
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: should really be concerned about any possible legal jeopardy going forward.

600
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 1: I mean, is that something that we really also need

601
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: to be aware of. You know, could could Trump find

602
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 1: himself indicted by someone by some other federal authority or

603
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 1: maybe some state authority. Even Andy, who was at the

604
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: Southern District of New York for decades, can tell us

605
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: all about that. And we have oh so much more

606
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: to team coming your way, So we'll be back in

607
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 1: just a moment. You know, when you put on a

608
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: pair of jeans you haven't worn a long time, you

609
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 1: find a twenty in the back pocket, you go, oh,

610
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 1: it's my day. Well, think about the money that you

611
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 1: currently have sitting around doing nothing in that four oh

612
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: one K account from you know, the job before last

613
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: one that you're not really paying attention to. That money

614
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,920

628
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: There's no reason why the Attorney General can't seek permission

629
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: to disclose all the grand jury material, which could be

630
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 1: a sizable portion of that report that has been the

631
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: president in Watergate. And at the end of the day, Abe,

632
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 1: we're not going to allow this Attorney general him by

633
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: the President, to oppose the obstruction case to bury Mueller's

634
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: report and finding. So we're going to insist that it

635
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:29,760
Speaker 1: comes out there. You have Adam Schiff, who has learned

636
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 1: nothing apparently the last two years, isn't isn't budging much

637
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: at all from his collusion delusions. Well, now it's I

638
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: guess the obstruction construction. But we got somebody who can

639
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 1: tell us what's coming next in all this and what

640
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: our expectations should be. And the fun part is he's

641
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,399
Speaker 1: been right all along, unlike Schiff, who's been wrong all along.

642
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: We've got Andy McCartney with us now of National Review,

643
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: also a Fox News contributor. Andy, great to have you back.

644
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 1: What do you mean to be with you? Thanks so much? Man?

645
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: What do you make of shift here? Trying to say that,

646
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 1: you know, the first of all, the handpicked I mean

647
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 1: the little kind of you know, the little kidney punches

648
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,919
Speaker 1: he's throwing. No one's looking at the handpicked ag Well,

649
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 1: every president hand picks it. I mean, like, well, what

650
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 1: does that even mean? But saying that that he's not

651
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: going to him interfere in the obstruction case, is he

652
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: really trying to say that they may try to bring

653
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 1: a political obstruction case against the president or does he

654
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 1: still think there's some prayer of a of a criminal proceeding. Well,

655
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 1: I think they've always thought, Buck that they could bring

656
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: political charges of some kind. After all, impeachment, which has

657
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: hovered over this thing from the beginning. I think it's

658
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: less likely now, although it's not off the table. It's

659
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 1: less likely now that we know that Muller has not,

660
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 1: you know, come out with any smoking gun, and it

661
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: looks like most of his report exonerates the president, at

662
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: least at least on legal issues. You know, political issues

663
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,439
Speaker 1: are a different story. But you know, Congress doesn't need

664
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: a penal offense, you know, an actual felony like I

665
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 1: used to prosecute in federal court in order to impeach

666
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: a president back in I think it was nineteen seventy

667
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: or seventy one. Ironically, Jerry Ford, who was then the

668
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: minority leader in Congress, trying to impeach Justice William O. Douglas.

669
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 1: I think at the time it's ironic because Ford ends

670
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: up becoming president because of an impeachment effort against Nixon,

671
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: who resigns rather than be impeached. But Ford, back in

672
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy or seventy one said that an impeachable offense

673
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: is anything at the House of Representatives decides that it

674
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 1: is at a certain point in history. So yes, they can,

675
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: you know, they can do this politically. But as the

676
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 1: I think the smarter Democrats have said, or at least

677
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 1: you know, grudgingly conceded um. You know, unless you have

678
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 1: a consensus. Unless you have such egregious misconduct that cuts

679
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: across the you know, the the outrage over it cuts

680
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: across partisan and ideological lines, You're not going to have

681
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: an impeachable offense. So you might as well forget about.

682
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 1: So where does this go though? In terms of the

683
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: the you know, the grand jury information that may be

684
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 1: contained in the Muller Report. I mean, you know there's

685
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: now where are we in finding out? You know, what's

686
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 1: in it? How much do we get to see? And

687
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 1: what do you think the play is going to be

688
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: for Democrats? I mean, I know they're going to find

689
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: something in there to say, see, this proves something, But

690
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 1: what do you see happening? Well, I think the grand

691
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 1: jury issue is largely an empty bag that they're fighting over.

692
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,880
Speaker 1: Buck In this sense, you know, there's no doubt that

693
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: Barr in his letter talks about the need to scrub

694
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: grand jury information from the report because of legal requirements.

695
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: There's there's a requirement by federal law of grand jury secrecy.

696
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: Not to get too deep in the weeds on this.

697
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: But when I was a prosecutor, especially where I practice,

698
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: the law is different from from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. But

699
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 1: in the Second Circuit it was pretty common to if

700
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: you needed to get a disclosure of grand jury information,

701
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: you just go to a judge and get a disclosure order.

702
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: But the interesting thing, if you read Rules sixty, which

703
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,760
Speaker 1: controls all this federal rules of criminal procedure, there's nothing

704
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:53,399
Speaker 1: in Rules sixty that expressly makes dissemination to Congress a

705
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 1: rationale for for unsealing grand jury information. And the reason

706
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: that matters is there's a big appellate case in the

707
00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 1: DC Circuit right now, which is where, of course, all

708
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: this action is taking place in Washington right The case

709
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: of the DC Circuit, which is called McKeever versus Sessions,

710
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: concerns whether a judge has authority outside the strict provisions

711
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,239
Speaker 1: of Rule six C, just like a generalized authority to

712
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 1: unseal grand jury minutes. And what the Justice Department has

713
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:35,280
Speaker 1: argued in that case is that the judge is stuck

714
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 1: with the rationales that are laid out in Rule six C.

715
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 1: You can't just like make up, you know, I think

716
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 1: it would be fair to disseminate this to Congress, so

717
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: therefore I can disseminate it to Congress. So that precise

718
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: issue is in front of the court now, and the

719
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: Justice Department has taken a position on it. So it

720
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,959
Speaker 1: would be impossible for Bar, with the Justice Department having

721
00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,080
Speaker 1: argued in the DC Circuit that a judge doesn't have

722
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: authority outside the rule, to suddenly say that a judge does.

723
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: I think the reason I say all this may be

724
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 1: an empty bag. But as I understand it, most of

725
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: the important witnesses that the Democrats would care about cooperated

726
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: with Muller's investigation without the need of going into the

727
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 1: grand jury. He didn't need to subpoena them. They sat

728
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:29,919
Speaker 1: for interviews. Those interviews and whatever Muller made of them

729
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 1: are not grand jury material. They're not covered by grand

730
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 1: jury secrecy. So in the end, the grand jury, I think,

731
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 1: may turn out to be less of an issue than

732
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 1: executive privilege, which becomes an important issue because it's one

733
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 1: thing for White House officials to speak to a federal prosecutor,

734
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 1: which is what Bar, but which is what Muller was

735
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 1: because that's within the executive brand and it doesn't wave privilege.

736
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 1: It's quite another thing to disclose it to Congress in

737
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 1: the public, which would require a waiver of privilege. So

738
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: I think while we're having all this hullabaloo about the

739
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: grand jury, now when against it gets down to brass

740
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:19,439
Speaker 1: tax executive privilege. Yeah, it's the executive privilege argument of it. Yeah,

741
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: that that makes that makes sense to me. Andy, Um

742
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: you know, I also just wanted to get your senses

743
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 1: to how how do you how do you assess now

744
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 1: that it's it's done, Muller's actions here? You know, you

745
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 1: know what what do you think was fair? What was unfair?

746
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 1: You know, now that we can actually look back on

747
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 1: a on a game that has been played and you

748
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: know the whistle has been blown, what do you think

749
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 1: about how the way Muller conducted this whole thing? Well,

750
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: I mostly um am not very favorable toward it. I

751
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,959
Speaker 1: will say one thing. I think the silver lining of

752
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: Muller's appointment is that it rested control of a counter

753
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 1: intelligence investigation from the FBI two Muller and I think

754
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: Buck that turns out to be very interesting. As we've

755
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: talked about a number of times, counterintelligence investigations in the

756
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: Justice Department don't get a prosecutor because it's not prosecutor work.

757
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 1: You're not trying to build a criminal case. So it

758
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: was unusual to take it away from the bureau which

759
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,879
Speaker 1: runs counter intelligence and give it to a federal prosecutor.

760
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of that was to allow

761
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: him to conduct a criminal investigation under the guise of

762
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:44,400
Speaker 1: counter intelligence. But on the other hand, what I thought, Buck,

763
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: is a very interesting fact that hasn't gotten a lot

764
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: of attention is that the last carter page FISA warrant

765
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: was issued in June round mid to late June of

766
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, probably a couple of weeks, maybe a month

767
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 1: after Muller was appointed, while he was still kind of

768
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 1: getting his bearings, and they did go back to court

769
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: in June and get another one. The interesting thing, Buck,

770
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: is that's a ninety day warrant, which means it would

771
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: have been due to be reauthorized in September of twenty seventeen,

772
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: by which point Mueller would have been really up and running.

773
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: He'd have been running the investigation for four months. He'd

774
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: he'd have been on top of everything. In September, they

775
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 1: don't go back to reauthorize the warrant, and by then

776
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:41,760
Speaker 1: everybody who's been involved in the warrant is gone. Comey

777
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: has been removed, McCabe's been sidelined. Baker's gone, Strack and

778
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,720
Speaker 1: Page or gone. Everybody who was the the key group

779
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: of agents and the key group of Justice Department officials

780
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: who were behind using the card, using the Steel dossier

781
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:02,959
Speaker 1: to get surveyed allance warrants from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court,

782
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,439
Speaker 1: they're all gone. And Muller, when it's his call to make,

783
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 1: decides we're not going to do that. And I believe

784
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 1: that that's why we can conclude that's a big reason

785
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: why we conclude that there was probably by the end

786
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:21,720
Speaker 1: of twenty seventeen, probably by the by the mid autumn

787
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: of twenty seventeen, I think they knew there was no

788
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 1: collusion case. And do you think that is there any

789
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 1: doubt in your mind that the dossier, based on what

790
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 1: we've been told, on what's been out there so far,

791
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 1: that the dossier was a substantial and the kind of

792
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 1: the the sine qua non of getting the FISA applications

793
00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: or getting the FISA warrants buck without you and me

794
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,280
Speaker 1: having to speculate about this, because you know, we haven't

795
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: seen the unredacted warrants. Senator Grant Grassley and Senator Graham,

796
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 1: who have seen them, say that with out the dossier,

797
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 1: there's no way they had enough to seek a warrant.

798
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: And Andy McCabe and his testimony when he was deputy

799
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: director of the FBI and his testimony in Congress has

800
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 1: conceded as much. So I think we can safely say,

801
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,319
Speaker 1: especially now that Mueller's gotten to the end of the

802
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 1: rainbow and told us emphatically that there was no criminal collusion,

803
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: I think we can safely say that if they didn't

804
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 1: have you know, if they had other information, we'd have

805
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 1: heard about it. Is the president out of any realistic

806
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 1: possibility of criminal jeopardy here any not just in them,

807
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean just in general. From Mueller's investigation. Yes, you know,

808
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,879
Speaker 1: we don't. The Southern District of New York investigation is continuing,

809
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:49,720
Speaker 1: so and that's on a different it's in a different

810
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:53,280
Speaker 1: place and on a different rhythm, being run by different

811
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: people and looking at different stuff than Mueller looked at.

812
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:02,720
Speaker 1: But I think, you know, the major, the major alleged misconduct,

813
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 1: even though it's hard for me to say allege because

814
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 1: it it looks like it was on the basis of

815
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,720
Speaker 1: virtually nothing, but the major allegation of misconduct against Trump

816
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,920
Speaker 1: was an espionage conspiracy with Russia, and I think he's

817
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 1: past that hurdle. And then, of course there was the obstruction,

818
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: which I never thought was much of anything. But you know,

819
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 1: I think you asked me before where I think of

820
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: the way Muller handled this, I think it's really does

821
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 1: not speak well of him that he abdicated on the

822
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: one question that there really that he was arguably needed

823
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:41,359
Speaker 1: to answer. I mean, I think there was no collusion case,

824
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 1: and he probably knew that very early on, and this

825
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: basically came to him buck as a as an obstruction investigation.

826
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: He was retained or he was appointed right on the

827
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 1: heels of Komi's firing, and right after McCabe opened an

828
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:02,360
Speaker 1: obstruction case against the president at the FBI, and he

829
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 1: spent twenty two months that as Muller did, looking at obstruction,

830
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 1: and in the end he said, well, you know, look,

831
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:12,240
Speaker 1: I'll give you the facts on both sides of the question,

832
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 1: and then, you know, do you agree with Professor Dershowitz

833
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,720
Speaker 1: and others who say that not only was that weird,

834
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: but it's really unethical and unfair that the that Muller

835
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: needed to make a call one or the other and

836
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: not do this. Well, I could have, but I didn't. Yeah,

837
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know that I would say

838
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,839
Speaker 1: it was unethical, But I do think it does have

839
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 1: ethical implications, and that is this book there. You're not

840
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 1: supposed to have a special counsel unless there's two things.

841
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: There's got to be concrete grounds for criminal investigation, which

842
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:44,840
Speaker 1: means a crime to investigate, and secondly, a conflict of

843
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 1: interest that is so profound the Justice Department can't, within

844
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 1: the ethical rules, run the case itself. So what do

845
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 1: we see Mueller doing here? Muller comes because there's supposedly

846
00:49:56,440 --> 00:50:02,600
Speaker 1: a conflict for justice, yet he recruits his staff from

847
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: the upper rechelance of the supposedly conflicted Justice Department. When

848
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:11,439
Speaker 1: he returns indictments or files indictments, he transfers a boast

849
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,719
Speaker 1: of a bunch of them to the component parts of

850
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 1: the supposedly conflicted Justice Department. And in the end, the

851
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 1: only decision that he had to make, he basically delegated

852
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 1: it to the Attorney General, who runs the supposedly conflicted

853
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,319
Speaker 1: Justice Department. So you have to ask, why did we

854
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: need a special counsel If the Justice Department was capable

855
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 1: of doing all this, what did we need a special

856
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,800
Speaker 1: counsel for very good question. Annie McCarthy. Everybody, you should

857
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 1: follow his work on a National review. And and you've

858
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:48,799
Speaker 1: got a podcast over there, right I do. It's called

859
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,760
Speaker 1: the McCarthy Report, so it should be easy enough to remember,

860
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 1: all right, McCarthy report. Remember me there we go and

861
00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: look for any on Fox News, everybody. Andy, thanks so

862
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 1: much for your time, my friend. We'll talk to you soon. See,

863
00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,760
Speaker 1: we'll be back in just a moment. Mac. In February,

864
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 1: Leadership Institute field organizer Hayden Williams was peacefully helping conservative

865
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: students recruit for their group at UC Berkeley when he

866
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: was viciously attacked by a radical leftist thug. Since then,

867
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: President Trump has taken action, signing an executive order to

868
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:21,959
Speaker 1: protect students free speech, including conservatives. My friends, but more

869
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:25,760
Speaker 1: action is needed. You can take that action now. Support

870
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:29,960
Speaker 1: the Leadership Institute and defend conservative students. Just go to

871
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: take back the Campus dot org. The Leadership Institute is

872
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 1: the premier organization for educating and training conservative college students.

873
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 1: With your gift of as little as five dollars a month,

874
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: you can help conservative college students stand up to the

875
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:46,680
Speaker 1: intimidation and physical attacks of radical leftist campus bullies. The

876
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 1: left's effort to silence conservative voices on college campuses in

877
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 1: America has been going on for too long, So please

878
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: visit take back the Campus dot org to make your

879
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: urgent gift to the leadership Institute today. That's take back

880
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 1: the Campus or take back the campus dot org. Nothing

881
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: you give them, whether a Shifty SHIFT or Jerry Nadler.

882
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,359
Speaker 1: It's a four hundred page report, right. We could give

883
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: them eight hundred pages and it wouldn't be enough. They

884
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 1: spent over thirty million dollars on an investigation. They found

885
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: no collusion, which by the way, was the most ridiculous

886
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: premise I've ever heard of anyway, and you understand exactly

887
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 1: what I mean, no collusion. There was no collusion. There

888
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 1: never was. After thirty million dollars, we're going to start

889
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: this process again because Jerry Magner wants to start it,

890
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,880
Speaker 1: or because SHIFT wants to start it. I'll rely on

891
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 1: the Attorney General to make decisions, but I will tell

892
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 1: you anything that's given to them will never be good enough.

893
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,319
Speaker 1: So I think it's somewhat of a waste that time.

894
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,880
Speaker 1: This is just politics at a very low level and

895
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 1: President's absolutely right, and we know he's right. Denial ain't

896
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 1: just a river in Egypt, my friends. Democrats are pretending

897
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 1: like they have not watched, at least many of them

898
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:06,040
Speaker 1: are pretending like they have not watched the complete deflation

899
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 1: and eradication of their favorite conspiracy theory, the one that

900
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 1: says that President Trump somehow, for some reason, and without

901
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 1: it being you know, able to without being able to

902
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 1: prove any evidence of, but he colluded with the Russians

903
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: to cheat in the election. And this is why I

904
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 1: don't know. We just talked to Andy about this, but

905
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: you can already hear Democrats saying, oh, well, now now

906
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,719
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to get him on obstruction. What they

907
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:36,799
Speaker 1: what they really need to figure out? And I think

908
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:38,919
Speaker 1: that they haven't made up their minds on this because

909
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:43,760
Speaker 1: it's a purely political calculation. It's not based in law,

910
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 1: it's not based in what's ethical or right. It's just

911
00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: what will help the Democrats take back power in twenty twenty.

912
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: Are they going to impeach him? Can they find some justification?

913
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:56,839
Speaker 1: They know it's not going to be collusion, but now

914
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 1: maybe there's some way that they can get him on

915
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,800
Speaker 1: obstruct I mean the fact that the Southern District of

916
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,680
Speaker 1: New York still has ongoing investigations and there's all these

917
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:08,919
Speaker 1: investigations of the president. Can you imagine if there were

918
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:12,840
Speaker 1: ongoing federal investigations of Obama that were just fishing expeditions,

919
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,719
Speaker 1: just just looking for something. You get a bunch of

920
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:20,799
Speaker 1: Ausa's assistant, US attorneys and FBI agents just going through

921
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,880
Speaker 1: all the you know, all of Obama's You need to

922
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 1: go back to what was that that guy Tony Rezko

923
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: and go back to domestic terrorists, Bill Ayres, and you know,

924
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,839
Speaker 1: you look, look at all these figures from Obama's past.

925
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: Imagine the FBI just started investigating all that, you know,

926
00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 1: all these different people, at all the different connections. The

927
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 1: media would have completely lost their minds. And at least

928
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 1: some of that stuff sounds like it could have happened

929
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,719
Speaker 1: or did happen, Whether there was criminal activity or not,

930
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:51,920
Speaker 1: you'd have to figure it out. But what we have

931
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:56,560
Speaker 1: here is just the endless investigation of endless investigations. I mean,

932
00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:59,040
Speaker 1: they're not going to stop there. They're never going to

933
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,320
Speaker 1: stop because they can not accept that they were wrong

934
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:06,719
Speaker 1: and they cannot accept that they lost He walked up

935
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: to me and wrapped his hands around my face like

936
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 1: that and pulled me in and started rubbing noses with me.

937
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 1: And it wasn't, you know, like an eskimo kiss or

938
00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: and then stop. It was for like a good fifteen seconds,

939
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: and I remember thinking, is he going to kiss me?

940
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:30,400
Speaker 1: It's not rape, but it doesn't need to be rape

941
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:37,319
Speaker 1: to not be right. That's Amy Lapos, second accuser of

942
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:41,320
Speaker 1: inappropriate conduct. Let's be very clear, not sexual assault or

943
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:46,200
Speaker 1: but inappropriate conduct. And as she said, it's not it's

944
00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 1: not rape, but that doesn't mean that it's okay. Even

945
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:56,200
Speaker 1: weirder the conduct in this instance, allegedly even weirder then

946
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:59,799
Speaker 1: what was initially said. It wasn't like a quick eskimo kiss.

947
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 1: It kept going as apparently where he rubbed noses briefly,

948
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 1: you know, he kept rubbing his nose against her nose.

949
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:10,399
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. It's super weird, folks, I know you know that.

950
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 1: But you know, they can try to contort reality as

951
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:18,000
Speaker 1: much as they want. They can do all this different stuff.

952
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,240
Speaker 1: They do everything in their power to make it seem

953
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:23,879
Speaker 1: like this isn't a super creepy weirdo thing to do.

954
00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:29,799
Speaker 1: It is a super creepy, weirdo thing to do. I

955
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:33,200
Speaker 1: don't care how much they you know, they try to

956
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 1: explain this away. There's something very very strange about Joe

957
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:42,879
Speaker 1: Biden's behavior. I mean, you've got Jillibrand and Pelosi Wang

958
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: and now Pelosi said earlier today that it's not disqualifying.

959
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 1: But Democrats, you see, they want to give Biden to pass.

960
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,480
Speaker 1: But they can't say that. So what they'll say is

961
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,280
Speaker 1: there shouldn't be consequences, but there should be a conversation.

962
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 1: Republicans get consequences, Democrats get a conversation. Let's talk about this.

963
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 1: Republicans should lose their jobs, never never be in public

964
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:09,320
Speaker 1: life again, be you know, right. And in some cases,

965
00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:12,960
Speaker 1: as we know, like with Kavanaugh, based on lies, based

966
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:16,680
Speaker 1: on lies, Democrats based on truth. No, no, no consequences.

967
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,240
Speaker 1: Let's just have a conversation. Here's what Jillibrand and Pelosi

968
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 1: said played nineteen. These women feel to means and that's

969
00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 1: not okay. So if Vice President Biden does choose to

970
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 1: run for president of the United States, I imagine this

971
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:31,160
Speaker 1: is a conversation he will be having to have with

972
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 1: the American people. I know, Jimli Biden a long time,

973
00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: My grandchildren loved Joe Biden. I mean, he's an affectionate

974
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:41,400
Speaker 1: person to children, to senior citizens, to everyone. That's just

975
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,560
Speaker 1: the way he is. He has to understand in the

976
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 1: world that we're in now that people's face is important

977
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 1: to them, and what's important is how they receive it,

978
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: not necessarily how you've intended it. He's an affectionate person.

979
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: Have you seen all the all the photos and all

980
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 1: the video and everything that's out there of how Biden acts.

981
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 1: Do you think that if Biden had an R next

982
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 1: to his name, if he were a member of the

983
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:13,680
Speaker 1: g O P, would these women in the Democratic parties,

984
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 1: prominent women Nancy Pelosi, third in line for the presidency,

985
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 1: folks that'll help you sleep at night. These women coming

986
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 1: out to defend Biden would not do it if this

987
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:29,720
Speaker 1: were a Republican So this is not about principle, This

988
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: is about power. But Biden's stuff is really weird. I

989
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 1: understand it's not a huge it's not a huge deal,

990
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 1: and I'm not trying to make it a huge deal.

991
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,600
Speaker 1: It's really more than anything else. Another instance where we

992
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 1: see how dishonest the media is and how the double

993
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 1: standards are absolutely everywhere. I think that Biden's gonna flame

994
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 1: out very quickly once he gets in. There'll be this

995
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:58,400
Speaker 1: recognition that this guy that they're so desperate for a

996
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 1: return to It seemed like the political inevitability of obama

997
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,600
Speaker 1: Ism to the left, and yes, Obama did win two

998
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 1: elections and was in office for eight years, that they

999
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 1: think that Biden can be a kind of restorative figure

1000
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:17,080
Speaker 1: back to that glorious time for the Democrat Party. Although

1001
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,760
Speaker 1: you know, when Obama was an Democrat party was decimated

1002
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 1: as a party. It lost a tremendous amount of seats

1003
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 1: and state legislatures, a lot of House and Senate seats, laws.

1004
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 1: I mean, there was a lot that did not go

1005
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:32,800
Speaker 1: well if the Democrats. Well, Obama was an office. Obama

1006
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:38,440
Speaker 1: was not somebody who's political popularity translated to other members

1007
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:41,640
Speaker 1: of his party. That just didn't happen. In fact, I

1008
00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 1: think that the party had to bear a lot of

1009
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:52,560
Speaker 1: consequences because of who Obama, because of Obama's policies. But

1010
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,560
Speaker 1: there is an obvious double standard here and we're going

1011
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:57,200
Speaker 1: to see that continue with Biden. Some of the old

1012
00:59:57,200 --> 01:00:00,040
Speaker 1: statements that he made that people in the media I

1013
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: had to say we're funny or lighthearted when they when

1014
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 1: you see them again, now you'll say, hold on the

1015
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: same media that will dredge up audio tape if somebody

1016
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:11,680
Speaker 1: from ten years ago or that will completely lose their

1017
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:15,480
Speaker 1: minds over a photo or something that someone did thirty

1018
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 1: years ago. In terms of inappropriate I'm not talking about crimes,

1019
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:23,600
Speaker 1: but you know, inappropriate conduct or insensitive conduct. They're gonna

1020
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 1: try to make it sound like, oh, uncle Joe Biden,

1021
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,360
Speaker 1: he's not creepy, he's just oh he is, he's he's

1022
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,479
Speaker 1: he's a creepster, saying that he's really affectionate. These women

1023
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:35,200
Speaker 1: didn't think it was normal. These women didn't think that.

1024
01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:38,040
Speaker 1: You know, I can tell you this. I have never

1025
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 1: tried to eskimo kiss a fellow employee, male or female.

1026
01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 1: Never gone for the eskimo kiss um, no matter what

1027
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 1: kind of mood I was in, no matter how it

1028
01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 1: was feeling, never leading anything. We just just reb noses

1029
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 1: for seconds, a little nose reb Nope, that did not happen. Oh,

1030
01:00:56,040 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 1: but speaking of double standards, there's a second accuser against

1031
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 1: Justin Fairfax, Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, And there was a

1032
01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 1: story today in the New York Times. You can't make

1033
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:13,840
Speaker 1: this up about how that just that that whole political

1034
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 1: scandal in Virginia, Well it just went, you know, poof,

1035
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:23,960
Speaker 1: it just disappeared. Oh this is so surprising. Guys, How

1036
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 1: did these scandals in Virginia? You know, I love the media.

1037
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:28,240
Speaker 1: I mean the media is like the guy who lights

1038
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 1: the house on fire and then whatever arrives goes. Isn't

1039
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 1: it the craziest thing? This house is on fire. I

1040
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 1: don't know how this happened. You know, they're like the

1041
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,439
Speaker 1: arsonist and firefighter at the same time. Hey, hey, let's

1042
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:41,720
Speaker 1: get some buckets of water to throw out to put

1043
01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:45,520
Speaker 1: out this fire. I just started. Yeah, the media covered

1044
01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:48,480
Speaker 1: up the whole Fairfax I should well. They covered it

1045
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 1: up initially by not reporting on it. Now they're letting

1046
01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 1: it whither away and they're just gonna move on from it.

1047
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 1: But Meredith Watson, who's the second accuser for Fairfax, she's

1048
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 1: saying she wished she came out sooner. And you know,

1049
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 1: this is still a story play twenty. I feel guilty.

1050
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:08,000
Speaker 1: Why do you feel guilty? It happened to her after

1051
01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 1: it happened to me, and had I had the strength?

1052
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 1: Are the courage to say something in two thousand, maybe

1053
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 1: it never would have happened to her. It was a

1054
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 1: huge betrayal. He was my friend. I don't understand how

1055
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:41,720
Speaker 1: need do that to somebody that you've been a friend too,

1056
01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:45,200
Speaker 1: and who's confided in you about things. I just don't

1057
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:49,520
Speaker 1: understand how you need do that. Does anyone think that

1058
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 1: that doesn't sound like a credible retelling of events and

1059
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 1: that woman is sharing anything other than real pain and real,

1060
01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:00,880
Speaker 1: real angst resulting from an alt against her. I mean,

1061
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 1: I don't think a woman can sound I mean, compare

1062
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 1: that that story that she's telling, the way she's telling it,

1063
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:11,200
Speaker 1: how she sounds she's telling it to say Julie Sweatnik,

1064
01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 1: the third accuser of Kavanaugh, who Democrats were willing to

1065
01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:20,480
Speaker 1: initially believe, just because I find Meredith Watson entirely credible, unbelievable.

1066
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:22,640
Speaker 1: There's nothing about her story that does not add up.

1067
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 1: Where are the me to mobs? Where where are the

1068
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 1: people that you know storm Capitol Hill that get all

1069
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 1: angry at Republicans that you know did everything to stop Kavanaugh?

1070
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I don't I don't see them.

1071
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:39,600
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, there they've just disappeared. They're almost

1072
01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:44,000
Speaker 1: like the anti war left that just evaporated under the

1073
01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:48,600
Speaker 1: Obama administration. When Obama increased the troops in Afghanistan, who

1074
01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:52,600
Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand? Where were all the Code Pink protesters? Then?

1075
01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:55,240
Speaker 1: Where were all the anti war leftists? Oh, it's just

1076
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:59,760
Speaker 1: more important things, apparently than stopping the massive escalation of

1077
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 1: a war that, by the way, resulted in more US casualties.

1078
01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:07,959
Speaker 1: The Obama administration racked up more US casualties in Afghanistan

1079
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:12,000
Speaker 1: than the eight years of Bush or so far the

1080
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:17,920
Speaker 1: two years of Trump put together. So not a lot

1081
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 1: of interest there obviously from the left, and same thing here.

1082
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,240
Speaker 1: It's just all all about the jockeying and jostling for

1083
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 1: power for the leftist that there's not they I have

1084
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:31,800
Speaker 1: a hard time taking them seriously on these matters because

1085
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,560
Speaker 1: they pretend to be advocates for a certain principle, but

1086
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:39,560
Speaker 1: really they are just pushing to be in greater control

1087
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:42,520
Speaker 1: and they want to just trash the other side. That's

1088
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:46,000
Speaker 1: the primary motivation that they have for so much of this.

1089
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 1: Meredith Watson sounds like a woman in a lot of

1090
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:52,400
Speaker 1: pain with a lot of who you know, who needs

1091
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:56,480
Speaker 1: and deserves a lot of sympathy for what happened to her.

1092
01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: And yes, you could say Buck, that was in an interview.

1093
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 1: The media's obviously talking to or okay, but it's how

1094
01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 1: they talk to her, how often they talk to her.

1095
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:05,520
Speaker 1: Is this a front page news story or is this

1096
01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: on the back pages? Is this something to talk about

1097
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:10,920
Speaker 1: once in a while, or is this something that they

1098
01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 1: make a repeat story so that the heat gets turned

1099
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:17,680
Speaker 1: up on Fairfax to resign. You know the answers to this.

1100
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:22,040
Speaker 1: They don't want Fairfax to resign for the optics and

1101
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,440
Speaker 1: for the fact that you'd have a major Democrat that

1102
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,440
Speaker 1: would be going down in the state of Virginia, a

1103
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 1: very important state in the twenty twenty election. So that's

1104
01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: what's happening here. The stories just went poof about Northam,

1105
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:38,400
Speaker 1: about Fairfax, about herring oh on the media is like,

1106
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,480
Speaker 1: how did that happen? We all know how it happened.

1107
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,160
Speaker 1: There's a lot of things I know about Joe Biden.

1108
01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm don him for a long time. He is extremely affectionate.

1109
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:52,320
Speaker 1: He's very affectionate, I find oddly affectionate. He gives people

1110
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:55,280
Speaker 1: on the mouth. I've seen him rub the shoulders of

1111
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:59,920
Speaker 1: women and men. Joe Biden calls them expressions of affect

1112
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 1: Uncle Joe, as we affectionally call him, very very affectionate.

1113
01:06:04,280 --> 01:06:07,520
Speaker 1: He's touchy feely. He's been doing it his entire life

1114
01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 1: in an affectionate way. He suffers from being overtly affectionate.

1115
01:06:13,640 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 1: To say that, you know, Biden should change the way

1116
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,840
Speaker 1: he is, or that he needs to be less affectionate,

1117
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:20,440
Speaker 1: I think is a problem. I think the next time

1118
01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 1: I see Joe Biden, if he doesn't hug me and

1119
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 1: give me a kiss and hold my hand, that's not

1120
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:27,600
Speaker 1: the Joe Biden. I knew he's a nice guy. He's

1121
01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:30,560
Speaker 1: not a predator. And this is ridiculous. Let me just

1122
01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:35,240
Speaker 1: say it. This is ridiculous. I just want to know

1123
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 1: what's ridiculous. I mean, you know, Mika there is in

1124
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 1: high dudgeon. It is ridiculous, sir, you know. I mean

1125
01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:45,880
Speaker 1: it's like she was at the spa and they didn't

1126
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:50,440
Speaker 1: have the proper organic lemon peel slices to put in

1127
01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 1: her deionized water. I mean, she's very upset, But I

1128
01:06:56,480 --> 01:07:01,320
Speaker 1: just want to know what's ridiculous is there's no let's

1129
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:04,480
Speaker 1: be clear about this There's no allegation out there about

1130
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:07,320
Speaker 1: Biden doing any of this stuff that anyone really disputes.

1131
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:09,800
Speaker 1: It's just a question of how creepy and how big

1132
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,320
Speaker 1: a deal it is. It's definitely creepy, So on the

1133
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:14,480
Speaker 1: one to ten creepiness scale, you know, where does it

1134
01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:18,280
Speaker 1: fall and how much should people care about it? Those

1135
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 1: are all fine things, But to be so outraged about it,

1136
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:23,960
Speaker 1: I mean, they accuse Republicans of stuff that didn't even happen,

1137
01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 1: and we're supposed to take action against them, right, they

1138
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 1: accuse Republicans, they lie about Republicans like Havanaugh to take

1139
01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:34,360
Speaker 1: them down, and you know, they seem to think that

1140
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:36,600
Speaker 1: we are just going to like let this go. That

1141
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:40,240
Speaker 1: Biden is a weird he's a weirdo. Nuzzling somebody's nose,

1142
01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 1: you don't know, in a professional environment or in a

1143
01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:46,040
Speaker 1: professional setting where you have power, where you are in control,

1144
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 1: is weird? Okay. No one's saying that Biden should go

1145
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:51,720
Speaker 1: to prison or is a terrible person or anything that

1146
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,960
Speaker 1: We're just saying that guy's a weirdo, all right, the

1147
01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 1: same you know, does it matter that Elizabeth Warren is

1148
01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,600
Speaker 1: not actually Cherokee and that she lied up being a

1149
01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:04,840
Speaker 1: Cherokee to advance herself professionally for many, many years. I mean,

1150
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:06,840
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things in life,

1151
01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 1: but does it should it matter in terms of her

1152
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,439
Speaker 1: judgment to the American people that she thought, Oh, I'm

1153
01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:14,400
Speaker 1: gonna say I'm one, one thou and twenty fourth Cherokee,

1154
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:18,000
Speaker 1: So that proves me right? Is that weird? Yeah, that's

1155
01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:23,559
Speaker 1: very weird. Okay, that's also very very weird. And you know,

1156
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 1: satire and mockery or things that these that these democrats,

1157
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:30,680
Speaker 1: they can't handle it because the so much of the

1158
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,920
Speaker 1: of the pitch for them is the construct around whatever

1159
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:36,600
Speaker 1: the media is telling people. But if people are snickering

1160
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:39,720
Speaker 1: behind your back because they know that you're actually kind

1161
01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 1: of a strange a strange bird, you know, a strange

1162
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,679
Speaker 1: duck is a strange duck stranger than a strange bird,

1163
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:51,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, quack quack. That's very hard then to

1164
01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:56,160
Speaker 1: keep the mythology around people going. But speaking of being

1165
01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 1: a bit strange, a little transition here into the latest

1166
01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:04,559
Speaker 1: from to O Rourke, who is really a combination of

1167
01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:09,679
Speaker 1: the guy from What's the What's the movie? Oh yeah,

1168
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,559
Speaker 1: it is really a combination of Napoleon Dynamite and Keanu

1169
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:16,800
Speaker 1: Reeves the nineties. Yeah, like, I just totally I just

1170
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 1: want to run for president and have you put all

1171
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:21,880
Speaker 1: of your hopes and dreams like in this basket that

1172
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:25,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to carry around. Does anyone else care? Again,

1173
01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:28,880
Speaker 1: not a big deal, but a little weird that Beto

1174
01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 1: only seems to wear a blue button down shirts. Is

1175
01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:34,599
Speaker 1: it the same shirt? Does he just have a closet

1176
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:37,599
Speaker 1: full of you'll see this. I've never seen him not

1177
01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 1: wearing a blue button down shirt with rolled up sleeves.

1178
01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 1: Is this the Beto uniform? Um? Not a big deal.

1179
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:47,960
Speaker 1: Not going to solve world piece, not gonna cure cancer,

1180
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,479
Speaker 1: whether Beto changes a shirt or not. But it's a

1181
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,840
Speaker 1: little weird. You know what. Else, it's weird that he

1182
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:55,840
Speaker 1: thinks that, you know what, people really want more town

1183
01:09:55,960 --> 01:10:02,799
Speaker 1: halls with oh Man, with elected or with appointed officials,

1184
01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,400
Speaker 1: not even like the officials play clip nine. That's why

1185
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:09,320
Speaker 1: as president, I'll sign an executive order on the first

1186
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 1: day in office requiring every single cabinet secretary to hold

1187
01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 1: a town hall meeting like this every single month, to

1188
01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:19,599
Speaker 1: listen to you and to be accountable to you. So

1189
01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:24,360
Speaker 1: that we deliver for you. Democracy is what we need

1190
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:27,280
Speaker 1: if this country is gonna make it. I mean that

1191
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,759
Speaker 1: just sounds so horrible. Yeah, every month, every you're gonna

1192
01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 1: have to like have the department like that. The Secretary

1193
01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:37,960
Speaker 1: of Health and Human Services is gonna have to sit

1194
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:40,880
Speaker 1: on a bunch of like random people who don't know

1195
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:44,640
Speaker 1: anything about the issue per se, are gonna ask questions,

1196
01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:50,000
Speaker 1: are gonna televise it. It's a great idea of betto Ah.

1197
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:53,720
Speaker 1: You're an amazing You're an amazing fella, mister betto He

1198
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,400
Speaker 1: also just says other things that are that are demonstrably

1199
01:10:56,960 --> 01:11:01,960
Speaker 1: bizarre and untrue. Play play eight D. These kinds of

1200
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 1: challenges in the lifetimes of anyone in this auditorium, regardless

1201
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 1: of how young or how old you are. This economy,

1202
01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:16,160
Speaker 1: this this unprecedented concentration of wealth and power and privilege

1203
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:20,559
Speaker 1: we haven't seen since the last true progressive era, that

1204
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:24,040
Speaker 1: center of clobature referred to that produced Teddy Roosevelt in

1205
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:29,479
Speaker 1: some extraordinary progressive reforms healthcare system where people are dying

1206
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:34,800
Speaker 1: of diabetes and the flu and curable cancers in the

1207
01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:38,879
Speaker 1: year two nineteen, in the wealthiest of the most powerful

1208
01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 1: copy second, does Beto not realize that people die from

1209
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,200
Speaker 1: the flu because they die from the flu because it's

1210
01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:47,599
Speaker 1: a virus that we have no cure for or vaccine

1211
01:11:48,080 --> 01:11:54,080
Speaker 1: that is proven effective against. To see, people still die

1212
01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:56,600
Speaker 1: from the flu. Yes, yes, many tens of thousands of

1213
01:11:56,600 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 1: people do because it's the flu. That's not you who

1214
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:05,280
Speaker 1: needs facts. Betto has his blue shirt and he has

1215
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 1: a vision for America. Our three coming up. Global Verification

01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:22,800
Speaker 1: vendor that does them for you. I want you to

1220
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:26,160
Speaker 1: give my friends at Global Verification Network a call. They

1221
01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,360
Speaker 1: not only are veteran owned and operated, so you can

1222
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:32,920
Speaker 1: support veteran business by using them. They also don't outsource

1223
01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:35,720
Speaker 1: their data or any of the work. It's all done

1224
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:39,720
Speaker 1: here in the States, so they are separating themselves from

1225
01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:42,360
Speaker 1: the competition, and they are the people that you should

1226
01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:45,759
Speaker 1: be calling to do your background checks. They're headquartered in Chicago,

1227
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:49,480
Speaker 1: but they have offices throughout the nation and all employees

1228
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:53,160
Speaker 1: are located here in the United States. So give them

1229
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:54,720
Speaker 1: a call and tell them that you're part of team

1230

Speaker 1: buck all right eight seven seven six nine five one

01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:04,680
Speaker 1: five one one seven nine. Or go to my GVN

1233
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 1: dot com Global Verification Network leave no stone unturned. That's

1234
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,840
Speaker 1: what I hear these things. Let's make America great again.

1235
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:14,000
Speaker 1: I think to myself, well, exactly when did you think

1236
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:17,720
Speaker 1: America was great? It certainly wasn't when people were in

1237
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:21,559
Speaker 1: slave It certainly wasn't when women didn't have the right

1238
01:13:21,600 --> 01:13:24,360
Speaker 1: to vote. It certainly wasn't when the LGBT community and

1239
01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:26,320
Speaker 1: was denied the rights to which it was in times.

1240
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:30,000
Speaker 1: That phrase echo as discrimination in your ears. It takes

1241
01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,639
Speaker 1: us back to I think an American past and never

1242
01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:37,240
Speaker 1: in fact really existed in this notion of greatness. Let's

1243
01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:42,800
Speaker 1: unpack former Obama administration Attorney General Eric Holder there from him,

1244
01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,479
Speaker 1: and let's let's do this. Shall we unpack what he says?

1245
01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:54,639
Speaker 1: He rejects this notion of in America that was ever great.

1246
01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:57,519
Speaker 1: How else can you explain? He says, Well, we had

1247
01:13:57,520 --> 01:13:59,439
Speaker 1: slaves before me could vote. I mean that takes you

1248
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:02,799
Speaker 1: all the way up into the into the twentieth century.

1249
01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:06,000
Speaker 1: The LGBT community didn't have rights, So that takes you

1250
01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:09,599
Speaker 1: up into the Obama administration. So if America wasn't great

1251
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:12,440
Speaker 1: all the way up until the Obama administration, then America,

1252
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:16,720
Speaker 1: according to Derek Holder, has never been great unless the

1253
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:19,120
Speaker 1: only time it has been great is the Trump presidency,

1254
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,000
Speaker 1: which you and I might think is kind of funny.

1255
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:23,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it was great before then too,

1256
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:26,639
Speaker 1: but I'm sure Eric Holder does not take that position.

1257
01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:32,240
Speaker 1: But this for me is a reminder of a common place,

1258
01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:37,519
Speaker 1: a commonplace way that democrats think of this country. You know,

1259
01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,280
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people who take pride in

1260
01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:44,200
Speaker 1: being American, but leftists generally take pride in thinking they're

1261
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:48,360
Speaker 1: better than America. That's where that's where they get a

1262
01:14:48,360 --> 01:14:50,479
Speaker 1: sense of self worth. You know. This is why you

1263
01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:53,400
Speaker 1: know Obama's message was very much a promise of a

1264
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:58,680
Speaker 1: fundamental transformation, that he was a near Messianic figure who

1265
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 1: would wipe away this ms of the American past and

1266
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:04,600
Speaker 1: bring us into some new promise language. As we know.

1267
01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,919
Speaker 1: I mean, this is all just this was all just crap,

1268
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:11,800
Speaker 1: wasn't It wasn't true, It wasn't the case. But there

1269
01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:16,800
Speaker 1: there is a blame America first, and blame America as

1270
01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:19,640
Speaker 1: quickly as you can, attitude that is prevalent on the

1271
01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,360
Speaker 1: left and Eric Holder, whom I've heard people say, I

1272
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:26,360
Speaker 1: don't know if this is to be taken seriously or not,

1273
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:29,599
Speaker 1: but I've heard people say that Eric Holders considering running

1274
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:32,720
Speaker 1: for president too, and the Democrats are soon going to

1275
01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:37,280
Speaker 1: get to the the you know, the the dance hall

1276
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:40,080
Speaker 1: doesn't have room for any more people part of this equation.

1277
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:41,680
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I really don't think you can

1278
01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 1: have a primary with thirty candidates in it, but this

1279
01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:49,000
Speaker 1: seems to be where we're heading. Holder, though, understood his

1280
01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:51,639
Speaker 1: role in the Obama administration, which was very much to

1281
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:55,040
Speaker 1: protect President Obama and to protect the Democratic Party. I mean,

1282
01:15:55,040 --> 01:15:58,200
Speaker 1: he was a political infighter. You look at what Holder

1283
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:00,559
Speaker 1: did in his approach to his job, not just fast

1284
01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:03,559
Speaker 1: and furious and some of the other debacles that now

1285
01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:05,920
Speaker 1: are all swept under the rug and people pretend like

1286
01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:09,640
Speaker 1: they never happened. But you look at what someone like

1287
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 1: Jeff Sessions or even Attorney General Barr, how he is

1288
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:15,519
Speaker 1: supposed to approach the role. He's expected to be not

1289
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:21,439
Speaker 1: just neutral, but a kind of paragon of non partisan

1290
01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,120
Speaker 1: perfection in the role. Meanwhile, when Holder was in the job.

1291
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:27,040
Speaker 1: They all knew that he was, as Holder said, Obama's wingman.

1292
01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:31,719
Speaker 1: That was the claim that he was Obama's right hand guy,

1293
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:35,080
Speaker 1: and he was, I mean, to Holder's credit or infamy,

1294
01:16:35,120 --> 01:16:36,880
Speaker 1: depending on how you want to view it, he was

1295
01:16:36,920 --> 01:16:39,679
Speaker 1: in fact right hand man to President Obama all along.

1296
01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:45,640
Speaker 1: But Holder also holds views that are very commonplace among Democrats,

1297
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:48,960
Speaker 1: and he's somebody who has said I believe it was

1298
01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:50,639
Speaker 1: it was Holder who said that America is a nation

1299
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:53,360
Speaker 1: of cowards because we never talk about race. Reality is

1300
01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:55,320
Speaker 1: that we talk about race in this country all the time.

1301
01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:59,200
Speaker 1: The reality is that we talk about race and have

1302
01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:01,720
Speaker 1: to be very, very very cautious because there are only

1303
01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:04,840
Speaker 1: certain ways you are allowed to talk about race. You know,

1304
01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:10,040
Speaker 1: it is now expected that, at least among Democrats and

1305
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:13,520
Speaker 1: the left and the media and the academy, that white privilege,

1306
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 1: which I think is one of these stupidest and most

1307
01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:20,839
Speaker 1: offensive phrases in common usage these days, that white privilege

1308
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:24,000
Speaker 1: is just taken as a thing. You know, I'm still

1309
01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 1: waiting for my white privilege check. I'm waiting for someone

1310
01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:28,800
Speaker 1: to say, oh, I'm going to hire you because you've

1311
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 1: your white privilege over the other fifty white guys who

1312
01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:33,760
Speaker 1: kind of look like you, kind of sound like you,

1313
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:37,920
Speaker 1: and want the same job. Where's the white privilege? I

1314
01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:41,040
Speaker 1: just I need someone to explain to me how there's

1315
01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:43,719
Speaker 1: how this is even worthy of being set out loud,

1316
01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:46,160
Speaker 1: that people have something called white privilege. I deny that

1317
01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:48,360
Speaker 1: there is such a thing, and I would also deny

1318
01:17:48,439 --> 01:17:52,240
Speaker 1: that it is in any way a useful thing to

1319
01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:54,439
Speaker 1: talk about, not only because it does not exist. But

1320
01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:57,040
Speaker 1: even if you theoretically believe that there is such a

1321
01:17:57,040 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 1: thing as white white privilege, how do you quantify it,

1322
01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 1: how do you offset it? What are you supposed to

1323
01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:05,720
Speaker 1: do about it as a white person? There are no

1324
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:09,639
Speaker 1: answers here, But you know, holder knows that it's just

1325
01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:14,439
Speaker 1: it's among Democrats the cheapest and easiest applause line to

1326
01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:18,719
Speaker 1: speak of in these these sweeping terms about our racist

1327
01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:21,479
Speaker 1: past and how how bad we have been as a country.

1328
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 1: That's why I says, you know, America was really never great,

1329
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:30,200
Speaker 1: which this is mainstream thinking among many Democrats, that America

1330
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: has sinned around the world and at home, and that

1331
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 1: Republicans are a bunch of jingoistic maniacs who just want

1332
01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:39,599
Speaker 1: to wave their American flags while they drink bud light

1333
01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:42,639
Speaker 1: and you know, go race their four by fours out

1334
01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:45,000
Speaker 1: in the yard, and you know all that, you know something,

1335
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:47,720
Speaker 1: You're like, Buck, that sounds great, I know, but that's

1336
01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:51,639
Speaker 1: a caricature. We all recognize that as a caricature, but

1337
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,320
Speaker 1: holder things that we are not aware enough of the

1338
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:57,679
Speaker 1: racism of our past. I think that many Democrats agree

1339
01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 1: with them play five that judges, like everybody, all other

1340
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:06,280
Speaker 1: Americans carry with them implicit biases, and especially in the

1341
01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:09,280
Speaker 1: criminal justice spheres. How do you fix it? Well, you

1342
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:11,639
Speaker 1: certainly have to have training. You have to make people

1343
01:19:11,640 --> 01:19:14,520
Speaker 1: aware of the fact that they do carry these biases

1344
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:17,120
Speaker 1: and make them understand that. You know, if you see

1345
01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:19,840
Speaker 1: an African American defendant in front of you, that's going

1346
01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:24,559
Speaker 1: to probably trigger things in your mind unconsciously, subconsciously, and

1347
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:27,639
Speaker 1: you're perhaps going to treat that person differently than somebody

1348
01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:30,040
Speaker 1: who shows up in a tie and has you know,

1349
01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:32,559
Speaker 1: a great lawyer that they have paid for. You're going

1350
01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:34,559
Speaker 1: to maybe cut that person a break that you wouldn't

1351
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:38,679
Speaker 1: otherwise give to a Hispanic or African American defendant. People

1352
01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:40,880
Speaker 1: have to be just aware of that, and then that

1353
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:46,000
Speaker 1: training has to continue So here's a fun fact. There's

1354
01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 1: no evidence whatsoever that anyone can point to that implicit

1355
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 1: bias training has any impact on implicit bias. I mean,

1356
01:19:55,680 --> 01:20:00,439
Speaker 1: this is a kind of social science voodoo that there

1357
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:02,599
Speaker 1: is no they people talk about this, Oh we need

1358
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 1: implicit bias training if somebody has an implicit or subconscious bias,

1359
01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:10,439
Speaker 1: I assure you having an hour of classroom time telling

1360
01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:14,200
Speaker 1: you not to be subconsciously biased will do nothing. So

1361
01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:18,160
Speaker 1: start with that. I mean, this is just this is meaningless.

1362
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 1: This is meaningless pablum from holder on this issue. And

1363
01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:23,960
Speaker 1: remember this guy who's Attorney General, folks, the senior most

1364
01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:26,759
Speaker 1: law enforcement official in the United States government for years

1365
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:31,120
Speaker 1: and is still a Democrat and very high, very high standing.

1366
01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:33,599
Speaker 1: But another question I have if we're going to talk

1367
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:37,120
Speaker 1: about implicit bias and racist baggage and racism in this country.

1368
01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:40,320
Speaker 1: I just pose this as a question and won't follow

1369
01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:42,839
Speaker 1: up with an answer, but it would be it's interesting

1370
01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:44,840
Speaker 1: if you try to get the left to weigh in

1371
01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:48,120
Speaker 1: on is it possible to have implicit bias against white people?

1372
01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:52,240
Speaker 1: Think about that one a little more. Let that one

1373
01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:54,439
Speaker 1: just bounce around for a moment. Is it possible for

1374
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,439
Speaker 1: people to have an implicit We're being told all the

1375
01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:58,880
Speaker 1: time that there's white privilege. So there are people who

1376
01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:00,960
Speaker 1: are white who are getting all kinds of benefits and

1377
01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:04,320
Speaker 1: advancing themselves because of their whiteness. Meanwhile, I don't think

1378
01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,040
Speaker 1: whiteness is in short supply. I don't know anybody who's

1379
01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:11,400
Speaker 1: benefiting professionally or otherwise merely from the fact of being white.

1380
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:14,879
Speaker 1: But is it possible for them to be implicit bias

1381
01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:19,840
Speaker 1: from people of any non white background against white people.

1382
01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:22,439
Speaker 1: You will hear most people on the left say the

1383
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:26,320
Speaker 1: answer is no, which is a fascinating discussion in and

1384
01:21:26,439 --> 01:21:29,599
Speaker 1: of itself. That essentially, anti white racism is not possible

1385
01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:34,559
Speaker 1: because they view race entirely as through the lens of

1386
01:21:34,760 --> 01:21:40,360
Speaker 1: being a social construct. So in a society like ours

1387
01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:42,880
Speaker 1: where the majority is white, although it's not going to

1388
01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:44,679
Speaker 1: be the case that much longer in this country based

1389
01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:48,040
Speaker 1: on the demographic trends, but insided like like ours, it's

1390
01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:50,599
Speaker 1: impossible for there to be anti white racism because racism

1391
01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:56,360
Speaker 1: requires power. That's what they say. They redefine what it

1392
01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:59,559
Speaker 1: is to be racist, They redefine the very concept of

1393
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:04,280
Speaker 1: race is such that it's not about treating people thinking

1394
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:08,120
Speaker 1: about people acting toward people differently because of their skin color,

1395
01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:15,839
Speaker 1: making moral and character and other assumptions about someone because

1396
01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:20,719
Speaker 1: of their pigmentation and some of their genetically dictated features.

1397
01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,439
Speaker 1: That's what I think of as racism. The left thinks

1398
01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:29,680
Speaker 1: of racism entirely through the lens of a power construct.

1399
01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 1: And so this is how you get all this talk

1400
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:37,040
Speaker 1: about white privilege and even now white supremacy, which you've

1401
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:40,840
Speaker 1: noticed has been expanded well beyond what it had previously

1402
01:22:40,880 --> 01:22:44,120
Speaker 1: been thought of. Right, white supremacy used to be people

1403
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:49,200
Speaker 1: that would march around with swastika's tattooed on their foreheads

1404
01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,200
Speaker 1: and you know, yelling about white power. And they've always

1405
01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:56,840
Speaker 1: been this noisy fringe of idiots and losers. But now

1406
01:22:56,880 --> 01:23:02,160
Speaker 1: white supremacy is things like, you know, the the feeling

1407
01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:06,160
Speaker 1: that people have based upon someone's dress code or someone's

1408
01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:09,920
Speaker 1: choice of what they wear when they walk into a courtroom. No,

1409
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:12,880
Speaker 1: it's white supremacy to expect that somebody wear a jacket

1410
01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:16,799
Speaker 1: and tie. You know what you heard Joe Biden recently

1411
01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:20,320
Speaker 1: talk about how you know that this is a speaking

1412
01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:23,920
Speaker 1: about about the problem we have is white culture. I mean,

1413
01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:26,439
Speaker 1: first of all, Joe Biden to say that, I mean,

1414
01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:32,639
Speaker 1: the guy is not exactly got a lot of street cred.

1415
01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:34,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say. I mean, Joe,

1416
01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:38,040
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is not uptricularly is not a guy that

1417
01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:41,799
Speaker 1: you would think of as understanding anybody, at least inherently

1418
01:23:41,880 --> 01:23:46,800
Speaker 1: understanding anybody outside of his own immediate circles. But this

1419
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:48,280
Speaker 1: is the way that you need that, this is the

1420
01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:50,519
Speaker 1: way that you're told to talk about these things from

1421
01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:52,200
Speaker 1: a level. So I just think it's interesting because you know,

1422
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:56,439
Speaker 1: Holder wants to lecture us about racist baggage, but he

1423
01:23:56,479 --> 01:23:58,799
Speaker 1: doesn't have any solutions, and he doesn't even have answers

1424
01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:01,880
Speaker 1: to straightforward questions. And in fact, the left doesn't have

1425
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:04,080
Speaker 1: answers to these questions. And when they do try to

1426
01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:11,240
Speaker 1: give answers, they're entirely unsatisfying because they're intellectually untenable. I mean,

1427
01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:15,599
Speaker 1: they're self contradictory. You can't adjust your definition of what

1428
01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:19,639
Speaker 1: racism is based upon the race of an individual, because

1429
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 1: then you're redefining what it is to be racist. But

1430
01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 1: that is in fact what happens all the time among

1431
01:24:25,560 --> 01:24:28,280
Speaker 1: Democrats and the left. If we look for consistency, we're

1432
01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:32,360
Speaker 1: going to be looking for a very very long time,

1433
01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:35,599
Speaker 1: my friends, but that is where we are. I've got

1434
01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 1: more coming up. Stay with me. Conservatives are under siege

1435
01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:43,680
Speaker 1: on campuses. You know this, my friends. And back in February,

1436
01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:45,639
Speaker 1: there was an incident that really showed us just how

1437
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:49,919
Speaker 1: bad it's gotten. The Leadership Institute's field organizer, Hayden Williams,

1438
01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:52,920
Speaker 1: was peacefully helping conservative students recruit for their group when

1439
01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:57,240
Speaker 1: he was attacked by a vicious radical leftist thug. You now,

1440
01:24:57,479 --> 01:24:59,960
Speaker 1: President Trump has taken action. He signed an executive order

1441
01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:03,759
Speaker 1: to protect conservative students free speech, but more action is needed.

1442
01:25:04,120 --> 01:25:08,160
Speaker 1: You can help. Go to take back the Campus dot

1443
01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:12,000
Speaker 1: org to support the Leadership Institute and defend conservative students.

1444
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:15,800
Speaker 1: The Leadership Institute is the premier organization for educating and

1445
01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:19,960
Speaker 1: training conservative college students now. The left effort to silence

1446
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:22,920
Speaker 1: conservative voices on campuses has gone on for far too long.

1447
01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:25,519
Speaker 1: My friends, Hayden Williams took a punch for all of us.

1448
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:28,320
Speaker 1: Now it's time to fight back and protect conservative students

1449
01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:32,080
Speaker 1: on campus everywhere. Visit take back the Campus dot org

1450
01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,559
Speaker 1: to make your urgent gift to the Leadership Institute today.

1451
01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:39,439
Speaker 1: That's take back the campus dot org. So I don't

1452
01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:41,760
Speaker 1: know if you saw my announcement speech, but I did

1453
01:25:41,760 --> 01:25:47,479
Speaker 1: it right outside of Trump International. Did you see it? Well?

1454
01:25:47,520 --> 01:25:50,360
Speaker 1: The reason why I took the fight to him is

1455
01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:54,240
Speaker 1: because President Trump is creating so much division and hate

1456
01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:58,639
Speaker 1: in this country. But he is very small. He is weak,

1457
01:25:58,760 --> 01:26:01,439
Speaker 1: He is a coward. He is a leader who actually

1458
01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:05,840
Speaker 1: punches down. He demonizes those who need our help, those

1459
01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:09,800
Speaker 1: who need our support. Jill Brand just like wants to

1460
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,800
Speaker 1: y'all and it's equal pay day. I'm like, she wants

1461
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:17,280
Speaker 1: equal pay for people because, oh my gosh, Democrats, can

1462
01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:19,800
Speaker 1: you do better than this police? I mean, at least

1463
01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:22,160
Speaker 1: give at least give us some candidates to talk about

1464
01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:26,439
Speaker 1: that are are interesting, you know, and not just worthy

1465
01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:28,759
Speaker 1: of mocker. I mean, Jilla Brand doesn't even she doesn't

1466
01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:31,720
Speaker 1: know what her ideas are. People just tell her what

1467
01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:33,800
Speaker 1: the idea should be, whatever she thinks will work at

1468
01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:37,240
Speaker 1: any given moment. But I thought that was a really

1469
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:40,639
Speaker 1: a really funny little little moment there where she comes

1470
01:26:40,640 --> 01:26:44,000
Speaker 1: out and she's saying Trump is creating division and hate.

1471
01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:46,680
Speaker 1: He's terrible and I hate his stupid face, that he's

1472
01:26:46,720 --> 01:26:50,800
Speaker 1: so mean and awful. It's like I'm pretty sure, miss

1473
01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:54,760
Speaker 1: Jilla brand, that you are in fact creating division and hate.

1474
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:57,040
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm gonna go out on a limb here

1475
01:26:57,040 --> 01:27:01,840
Speaker 1: and say that Kirsten Jill, Kristen or Kirstin I don't

1476
01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:03,759
Speaker 1: make I don't mix them up on purpose, I swear,

1477
01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:07,720
Speaker 1: but it's just impossible. I think it's Kirston Jilbren that

1478
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:11,599
Speaker 1: she she thinks that the Democrats are are the are

1479
01:27:11,640 --> 01:27:13,840
Speaker 1: the great healers in this nation. I mean the same

1480
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:17,440
Speaker 1: Democrats who for the last two years have been pretending

1481
01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:22,160
Speaker 1: that President Trump is a traitor, that the President of

1482
01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:27,440
Speaker 1: the United States is a sexual predator, um, a trader,

1483
01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:33,759
Speaker 1: um crazy as in mentally unfit to hold any office,

1484
01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:40,840
Speaker 1: probably a racist, a xenophobe, an anti Muslim bigot. I mean,

1485
01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:43,639
Speaker 1: you got on the line. All these things that they've

1486
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:47,880
Speaker 1: said about the president that are are are deeply destructive

1487
01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:51,720
Speaker 1: and unfair and untrue. I do not believe any of

1488
01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:55,040
Speaker 1: those things are true about President Trump. They certainly the

1489
01:27:55,080 --> 01:27:59,360
Speaker 1: whole you know, grab the woman by the area line

1490
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:01,680
Speaker 1: that everyone's very familiar from the Billy Bush tape. I

1491
01:28:02,240 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 1: don't know what it's going to take for the media

1492
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:07,280
Speaker 1: to stop misconstruing what he said. I'm not saying it

1493
01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:09,920
Speaker 1: was okay, I mean it was. It was an ungentlemanly

1494
01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:14,479
Speaker 1: thing to say. But he wasn't bragging about assaulting women.

1495
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:18,800
Speaker 1: He was bragging about his access to attractive women who

1496
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 1: let him. That was what he said, let him do

1497
01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:26,519
Speaker 1: things because he's a famous, powerful, important guy. But they

1498
01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:28,559
Speaker 1: always make it sound like he was claiming that he

1499
01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:32,200
Speaker 1: was drugging and then taking advantage of people or something.

1500
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:34,640
Speaker 1: You know that he's almost a Cosby esque situations, not

1501
01:28:34,720 --> 01:28:37,360
Speaker 1: that at all. It's not. And they're not so stupid.

1502
01:28:37,360 --> 01:28:39,760
Speaker 1: The media is not so stupid that they don't understand that.

1503
01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 1: But a major and you're going to see this now

1504
01:28:43,600 --> 01:28:47,799
Speaker 1: gearing up for the twenty twenty election, a major point

1505
01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:51,320
Speaker 1: of opposition against Trump that comes from the left has

1506
01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:57,920
Speaker 1: to do with making support of Trump socially unpalatable. You know,

1507
01:28:58,200 --> 01:29:01,920
Speaker 1: supporting Trump makes you somebody who's a bad person that

1508
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:05,040
Speaker 1: people shouldn't be friends with. And you know, nobody should

1509
01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:07,640
Speaker 1: like let let their kids stay over at you know,

1510
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:09,680
Speaker 1: your house to hang out with your kids because you're

1511
01:29:09,720 --> 01:29:12,200
Speaker 1: a Trump supporter and you're a bad person, right, That's

1512
01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:17,280
Speaker 1: that's part of the effort here. And and it was

1513
01:29:17,320 --> 01:29:19,720
Speaker 1: just yesterday that I said to you, it's not just

1514
01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:25,360
Speaker 1: about Trump. They really do feel this way about Trump

1515
01:29:25,600 --> 01:29:29,960
Speaker 1: supporters too. You know, the things they're saying about Trump,

1516
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:32,880
Speaker 1: they feel about the people who voted for him. And

1517
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:37,200
Speaker 1: if that sounds at all like it's a it's a leap. Well,

1518
01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:42,599
Speaker 1: here's the chairman of the DNC, Tom Perez, talking about

1519
01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:49,120
Speaker 1: people who support Trump, who support Mitch McConnell and Paul

1520
01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:52,600
Speaker 1: Ryan and all these different people, or rather who he

1521
01:29:52,680 --> 01:29:55,120
Speaker 1: named some of these people who have supported Trump. Here's

1522
01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:57,439
Speaker 1: what he thinks of those who support President Trump. Play three.

1523
01:29:57,960 --> 01:30:00,559
Speaker 1: But the thing is they they are cowardly. I mean,

1524
01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:05,880
Speaker 1: history will not only judge Donald Trump harshly, It will

1525
01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:10,960
Speaker 1: judge Mits McConnell and Paul Ryan and all the other

1526
01:30:11,040 --> 01:30:15,559
Speaker 1: cowards who refuse to stand up to this president and

1527
01:30:15,680 --> 01:30:18,519
Speaker 1: allowed the Party of Lincoln to die. They will be

1528
01:30:18,600 --> 01:30:24,599
Speaker 1: judge harshly because whatever he says goes right. Cowards. He

1529
01:30:24,680 --> 01:30:27,880
Speaker 1: says cowards about Republicans who won't stand up. And I

1530
01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:32,639
Speaker 1: can assure you cowards and idiots and buffoons is how

1531
01:30:32,640 --> 01:30:37,559
Speaker 1: they would describe, at least privately, those who vote for Trump.

1532
01:30:37,760 --> 01:30:40,320
Speaker 1: It is not just about the president himself. It is

1533
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,760
Speaker 1: about those who believe in what he is trying to accomplish.

1534
01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,320
Speaker 1: You see, for me, it's always been it's always been

1535
01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:50,320
Speaker 1: the agenda. It has not been the case that, you know,

1536
01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:55,680
Speaker 1: President Trump's individual character or you know, even individual accomplishments

1537
01:30:55,680 --> 01:30:59,800
Speaker 1: before becoming president, were the motivating factor in support. Although

1538
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:03,160
Speaker 1: I do find most of his tweets and certainly his

1539
01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:06,560
Speaker 1: battles with the media to be very entertaining, amusing and

1540
01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:12,439
Speaker 1: worthwhile too. The media has changed. They don't realize it

1541
01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:14,760
Speaker 1: quite yet, but they have changed, and it will never

1542
01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:17,559
Speaker 1: be the same because of this president. And I think

1543
01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:20,920
Speaker 1: that's all to the good. I think it's something that

1544
01:31:20,920 --> 01:31:23,920
Speaker 1: we should all be very happy about. But they're gonna

1545
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:27,640
Speaker 1: try this through the media, through through not just and

1546
01:31:27,680 --> 01:31:29,240
Speaker 1: I don't just mean the news media. They're going to

1547
01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:31,960
Speaker 1: try it through TV shows and through Hollywood, and they

1548
01:31:32,040 --> 01:31:36,160
Speaker 1: want to make it socially unacceptable to support Trump. And

1549
01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 1: so even if you personally are going to vote for him,

1550
01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:43,200
Speaker 1: Jilla Brand and Tom Perez and all these others out

1551
01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:46,160
Speaker 1: there are going to make people feel a little sheepish

1552
01:31:46,200 --> 01:31:49,639
Speaker 1: about speaking openly going into this election about their support

1553
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:51,560
Speaker 1: for Trump, They're gonna make people feel like, you know,

1554
01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:53,559
Speaker 1: I sit down in the boardroom at work, or I

1555
01:31:53,560 --> 01:31:56,560
Speaker 1: sit down and you know in the office environment, I

1556
01:31:56,920 --> 01:31:59,280
Speaker 1: better not be wearing my MAGA hat. I better keep

1557
01:31:59,320 --> 01:32:04,120
Speaker 1: this to myself. And that's an advantage for Democrats and

1558
01:32:04,160 --> 01:32:07,000
Speaker 1: they know it. You know, a chilling effect on your

1559
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:09,439
Speaker 1: support of MAGA is what they're trying to achieve, and

1560
01:32:09,479 --> 01:32:12,320
Speaker 1: they have a lot of ways of trying to do it. Hi,

1561
01:32:12,560 --> 01:32:18,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to gap. Binary sex typically refers to your

1562
01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:22,920
Speaker 1: biological traits as your gonads, your genitalia, your internal sex characteristics,

1563
01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:27,679
Speaker 1: your hormone production, hormone response, and secondary sex characteristics. Gender

1564
01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:30,960
Speaker 1: is about your identity, your expression, and it's often based

1565
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,800
Speaker 1: on ideas about sex. It's important that we really break

1566
01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:35,920
Speaker 1: down what are we talking about when we talk about

1567
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:39,120
Speaker 1: sex and gender and is there something called biological sex

1568
01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,320
Speaker 1: and what does that mean. This idea that the body

1569
01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:45,840
Speaker 1: is either male or female is totally wrong and I

1570
01:32:45,880 --> 01:32:48,639
Speaker 1: am living proof of that. We know intersex people exist

1571
01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:52,439
Speaker 1: and break down this binary We all have characteristics that

1572
01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:55,200
Speaker 1: are typically male and typically female, and it is really

1573
01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:59,920
Speaker 1: about political choices, social factors, ideological choices that we assign

1574
01:33:00,160 --> 01:33:03,840
Speaker 1: meeting to different parts of our body. All of that

1575
01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:11,080
Speaker 1: is wrong. Everything that you just heard there is factually, scientifically,

1576
01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:16,800
Speaker 1: rationally incorrect. For those of you who are wondering what

1577
01:33:17,200 --> 01:33:21,040
Speaker 1: the heck was that nonsense, it was a video ad

1578
01:33:21,080 --> 01:33:24,200
Speaker 1: that is running in teen Vogue. Now hold on, before

1579
01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:26,720
Speaker 1: you say, puck, come on teen Vogue, Who cares? I

1580
01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:31,200
Speaker 1: guess I better cancel my subscription before we look at

1581
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:34,160
Speaker 1: that part. Let's understand that, you know, teen Vogue is

1582
01:33:34,200 --> 01:33:36,439
Speaker 1: owned by one of these big media conglomerates, just like

1583
01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:41,080
Speaker 1: all these other magazines, and they're propagandizing to young people

1584
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:46,960
Speaker 1: who don't have the knowledge and philosophical background necessarily to

1585
01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:51,360
Speaker 1: understand that what they're being told is complete garbage. There's

1586
01:33:51,439 --> 01:33:55,519
Speaker 1: no binary, coherent thing called biological sex. That is as

1587
01:33:56,080 --> 01:34:00,479
Speaker 1: false as any statement can be. There is abs resolutely

1588
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:05,080
Speaker 1: a coherent thing. It's It's one of the clearest and

1589
01:34:05,240 --> 01:34:08,760
Speaker 1: most well understood things in existence is that there is

1590
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:12,680
Speaker 1: a difference between xx chromosome and x y chromosome. Now,

1591
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:14,720
Speaker 1: people who want to play the game, and sometimes I

1592
01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:17,720
Speaker 1: get emails from people that think they're very smart and say, well, buck,

1593
01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:24,320
Speaker 1: there can be chromosomal abnormalities, and they're you know, sometimes okay, well,

1594
01:34:24,439 --> 01:34:27,400
Speaker 1: is that then the standard for being intersex? See? See,

1595
01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:31,880
Speaker 1: they they want they want there to be a scientific

1596
01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:36,559
Speaker 1: explanation for what is a purely psychological phenomenon, and a

1597
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:41,400
Speaker 1: phenomenon based entirely of emotion and will and choice, not

1598
01:34:41,600 --> 01:34:48,680
Speaker 1: of a physical manifestation or a physical reality. And you know,

1599
01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:54,679
Speaker 1: this is a kind of extension, this desire to First

1600
01:34:54,680 --> 01:34:56,840
Speaker 1: of all, there's a Marxist underpinning to all this, because

1601
01:34:56,880 --> 01:35:00,000
Speaker 1: destroying the family, destroying sex is necessary to destroy the family.

1602
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,400
Speaker 1: Destroying family is a necessary component of replacing the family

1603
01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:06,360
Speaker 1: unit with the state. The state then becomes your family,

1604
01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:10,200
Speaker 1: the collectivist identity that we all are handed by. The

1605
01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:12,800
Speaker 1: state becomes the only identity that has meaning, because of

1606
01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:16,280
Speaker 1: course the state also wants to be in place of God.

1607
01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:18,880
Speaker 1: So get rid of the family, get rid of God,

1608
01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:21,599
Speaker 1: replace it with the state. This is some people will

1609
01:35:21,640 --> 01:35:27,599
Speaker 1: talk about cultural Marxism, but has long standing roots in

1610
01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:31,920
Speaker 1: secularist Marxist philosophy. So it's not out of nowhere that

1611
01:35:31,960 --> 01:35:33,599
Speaker 1: all of a sudden we're being told there's no such

1612
01:35:33,640 --> 01:35:38,800
Speaker 1: thing as biological sex. This is a very very fashionable,

1613
01:35:38,880 --> 01:35:41,920
Speaker 1: not just because it's in teen vogue, a very fashionable

1614
01:35:42,520 --> 01:35:45,160
Speaker 1: position on the left now. And people say this and

1615
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:49,120
Speaker 1: think that they don't sound stupid when they sound very stupid,

1616
01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:55,880
Speaker 1: saying there is no scientific basis for these claims whatsoever.

1617
01:35:56,360 --> 01:36:00,000
Speaker 1: And in fact, every cell of your body is different,

1618
01:36:00,520 --> 01:36:04,559
Speaker 1: male or female, and you know this goes to the

1619
01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:10,400
Speaker 1: very earliest stages of development inside the womb and what occurs.

1620
01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:13,400
Speaker 1: But you know, it's also this desire to fight against

1621
01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:20,320
Speaker 1: nature and this presumption that leftist philosophy can somehow overcome

1622
01:36:20,840 --> 01:36:24,439
Speaker 1: reality just by wishing it to be. So, you know,

1623
01:36:24,560 --> 01:36:29,760
Speaker 1: it's it's almost like, uh, you know. Deconstructionism is a

1624
01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:35,080
Speaker 1: garbage philosophy of Derita from the nineteen sixties, and it's

1625
01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:40,000
Speaker 1: a theory about that that criticizes traditional assumptions about things

1626
01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:42,600
Speaker 1: like what is true and what is identity? Right, so

1627
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:46,120
Speaker 1: you just pull apart everything nothing matters really anymore, nothing

1628
01:36:46,240 --> 01:36:49,720
Speaker 1: is true or real anymore. That's deconstructionism. And this is

1629
01:36:49,760 --> 01:36:54,839
Speaker 1: how you get you know, high school sophomores or particularly

1630
01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:57,320
Speaker 1: it happens in college. We're being told, well, let's you know,

1631
01:36:57,720 --> 01:37:00,680
Speaker 1: what's wrong with Hamlet? You know, what what do you think?

1632
01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 1: Hamlet says, forget what Shakespeare meant. What do you think

1633
01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:06,960
Speaker 1: Shakespeare was saying here? Not what do you think he

1634
01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:09,040
Speaker 1: meant to say? But what should he be saying here?

1635
01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:11,160
Speaker 1: I mean, this is what deconstruction is. It just turns

1636
01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:19,400
Speaker 1: into a form of mental auto erotica. And that's a

1637
01:37:19,520 --> 01:37:22,280
Speaker 1: that's a fun word, by the way, That's what you

1638
01:37:22,320 --> 01:37:25,880
Speaker 1: see here. Though this is not rooted in truth, it's

1639
01:37:25,920 --> 01:37:29,320
Speaker 1: not rooted in science. But there is a very real

1640
01:37:29,360 --> 01:37:31,960
Speaker 1: movement to propagandize to your kids that there's no such

1641
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:35,160
Speaker 1: thing as biological sex. Meanwhile, we're all supposed to sit

1642
01:37:35,160 --> 01:37:38,240
Speaker 1: around and be worried about the pay gap. The pay

1643
01:37:38,320 --> 01:37:41,439
Speaker 1: gap is a thing only if you don't understand how

1644
01:37:41,439 --> 01:37:45,800
Speaker 1: basic economics works, which the left also doesn't understand. I

1645
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:48,800
Speaker 1: know that they have powerful emotions, and that people who

1646
01:37:48,800 --> 01:37:52,479
Speaker 1: are leftists, if they have these feelings that are very

1647
01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:56,040
Speaker 1: very strong, but they really need to bend to the

1648
01:37:56,120 --> 01:37:59,160
Speaker 1: reality around them and at least make coherent arguments. And

1649
01:37:59,280 --> 01:38:02,599
Speaker 1: saying there's no coherent thing called biological sex is one

1650
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:06,320
Speaker 1: of the dumbest things I have ever heard. There absolutely is.

1651
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:09,040
Speaker 1: We all know what it is, and just because they

1652
01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:15,160
Speaker 1: say so doesn't mean it is roll calls up next.

1653
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:18,800
Speaker 1: Ain't no party, look a Team Buck party, because a

1654
01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:28,519
Speaker 1: Team Buck party. Don't stop. Yeah, we got Buck turned

1655
01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:44,559
Speaker 1: up to eleven. It's time for roll call. Indeed, it

1656
01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:48,920
Speaker 1: is from Savannah, Georgia. I'm gonna tell you guys something

1657
01:38:48,920 --> 01:38:51,400
Speaker 1: that's very exciting for me. And those of you who

1658
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:55,479
Speaker 1: are from Georgia or Florida or some of the other

1659
01:38:55,520 --> 01:38:58,639
Speaker 1: states in the vicinity are going to think that I'm

1660
01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:01,360
Speaker 1: a big dork for saying this, but I was very

1661
01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:05,800
Speaker 1: excited today. I saw an alligator, which for somebody from DC,

1662
01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:08,680
Speaker 1: perhaps because I am a swamp creature, for me to

1663
01:39:08,720 --> 01:39:11,680
Speaker 1: see a real swamp creature was very exciting. But it

1664
01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,800
Speaker 1: was basking in the sun. Looked to be about a

1665
01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:18,439
Speaker 1: six foot or i'd say, just hanging out, just hanging out.

1666
01:39:18,439 --> 01:39:20,800
Speaker 1: It's exciting for me, you know. It's this is like

1667
01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:22,639
Speaker 1: when I've been in some parts of the world where

1668
01:39:22,960 --> 01:39:25,880
Speaker 1: where there are monkeys just running around, like monkeys are

1669
01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:28,439
Speaker 1: kind of like squirrels, and you know, you know, you're

1670
01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:30,360
Speaker 1: a tourist, You're like, look at the monkeys, and all

1671
01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:32,400
Speaker 1: the people that are actually from the country are like, yeah,

1672
01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:34,799
Speaker 1: they're annoying and loud and steal my and steal food

1673
01:39:34,840 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 1: from like the window sill. I'm sure people down here

1674
01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:40,000
Speaker 1: aren't as excited about gators as I am, but I

1675
01:39:40,040 --> 01:39:43,439
Speaker 1: was like, whoa the gator. Very touristy moment for me.

1676
01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:46,200
Speaker 1: But unfortunately, Savannah, I have to tell you. I love

1677
01:39:46,400 --> 01:39:49,679
Speaker 1: your city and your food, and Georgia is a great state.

1678
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:53,519
Speaker 1: But I could have used higher than like forty five

1679
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:55,519
Speaker 1: degree weather while I was down here. I'm just saying

1680
01:39:55,680 --> 01:39:57,080
Speaker 1: I came all the way from New York, I mean

1681
01:39:57,080 --> 01:39:59,600
Speaker 1: from not New York, from DC, and it was a

1682
01:39:59,640 --> 01:40:01,720
Speaker 1: little b on the chili side. But no, Savannah is great.

1683
01:40:01,760 --> 01:40:03,679
Speaker 1: I mean the food here is amazing, which I will

1684
01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:06,040
Speaker 1: say is that pretty much sells me on a place.

1685
01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:08,519
Speaker 1: If I like the food, I can handle everything else.

1686
01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:11,880
Speaker 1: Oh and people down here actually have good politics, unlike NDC,

1687
01:40:12,080 --> 01:40:17,120
Speaker 1: so that's nice. Johann said, heard you were in Atlanta

1688
01:40:17,200 --> 01:40:20,680
Speaker 1: for a conference, and believe you said the name Stansbury.

1689
01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:26,360
Speaker 1: So the recently I saw a TV ad for a

1690
01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:29,519
Speaker 1: book titled The American Jubilee. An online search took me

1691
01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:32,760
Speaker 1: the website for the publishers also Stansbury scary stuff. Will

1692
01:40:32,760 --> 01:40:35,040
Speaker 1: you be sharing your views on it? Johann. Yeah, they've

1693
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:39,000
Speaker 1: published Jubilee is essentially a book that dives into where

1694
01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:41,439
Speaker 1: the economy is going to crash out and how things

1695
01:40:41,479 --> 01:40:43,960
Speaker 1: are going to get really bad. And yes, that is

1696
01:40:44,000 --> 01:40:47,880
Speaker 1: Stansbury Research. I work with Stansbury Research. I know the

1697
01:40:47,920 --> 01:40:50,240
Speaker 1: folks who are running very well, and I'm down here

1698
01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:54,080
Speaker 1: for a Stansbury conference. But I am in Savannah, Georgia.

1699
01:40:54,120 --> 01:40:58,920
Speaker 1: I am not in Atlanta, Jesse. Right, if you were

1700
01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:01,160
Speaker 1: in Savannah, I hope you style by nine Line Apparel

1701
01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:04,160
Speaker 1: and Black Rifle Coffee Company, Jesse. I have had it's

1702
01:41:04,160 --> 01:41:07,280
Speaker 1: a fair point. I have reached out to my friend

1703
01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:10,519
Speaker 1: at nine Line Apparel, the CEO of there, Tyler Merritt.

1704
01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,519
Speaker 1: Unfortunately he has been out of town over the weekend

1705
01:41:13,680 --> 01:41:16,360
Speaker 1: and into the week so we've not been able to

1706
01:41:16,360 --> 01:41:19,400
Speaker 1: meet up yet. But otherwise I absolutely would have gone

1707
01:41:19,400 --> 01:41:21,720
Speaker 1: over there and if I just had a little bit

1708
01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:24,599
Speaker 1: more time. But it's it's a bit, it's a bit

1709
01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:28,599
Speaker 1: on the busy side. So I'm hoping that, you know,

1710
01:41:28,640 --> 01:41:32,200
Speaker 1: things will more or less come together on all that.

1711
01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:38,000
Speaker 1: What else do we have here? And I just started mumbling,

1712
01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:42,280
Speaker 1: there the end, they'll come together with the thing. Paul Rites, Hello, Buck,

1713
01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:48,679
Speaker 1: any chance your truffled egg recipe is available online, Paul,

1714
01:41:48,760 --> 01:41:51,759
Speaker 1: I didn't know that I had a truffled egg recipe.

1715
01:41:52,120 --> 01:41:56,519
Speaker 1: Are you referring to scrambled egg with truffle flavoring? Because

1716
01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:58,880
Speaker 1: that would just be scrambled eggs. You add some either

1717
01:41:58,920 --> 01:42:01,880
Speaker 1: truffle shavings if you want to be very bougie, will

1718
01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:06,160
Speaker 1: Hi electrafor shavings in my scrambled eggs? Yes, I do,

1719
01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:09,040
Speaker 1: and I wear a top hat and a monocle while

1720
01:42:09,080 --> 01:42:14,800
Speaker 1: I eat them and nothing else. That's one way to go.

1721
01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:20,599
Speaker 1: But the secret for me for scrambled eggs is and

1722
01:42:20,760 --> 01:42:22,960
Speaker 1: the game changer things that I learned from doing. And

1723
01:42:23,600 --> 01:42:25,400
Speaker 1: I'll just tell you I watch a lot of YouTube videos.

1724
01:42:25,439 --> 01:42:27,680
Speaker 1: I learned to cook by watching YouTube videos. But you

1725
01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:31,280
Speaker 1: have to watch multiple videos of making the same dish

1726
01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:34,320
Speaker 1: because everybody has different techniques and certain ones you will

1727
01:42:34,720 --> 01:42:37,439
Speaker 1: pick up yourself and you'll you'll like, and others you'll

1728
01:42:37,479 --> 01:42:38,920
Speaker 1: be like, I don't want to do it that way.

1729
01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:41,479
Speaker 1: So if you watch multiple videos, it's kind of like

1730
01:42:41,560 --> 01:42:46,679
Speaker 1: reading various news sources on the same topic. It's important

1731
01:42:46,720 --> 01:42:49,520
Speaker 1: to do that in my business because there are nuances

1732
01:42:49,600 --> 01:42:52,880
Speaker 1: and little details that are different from write up to

1733
01:42:52,920 --> 01:42:55,000
Speaker 1: write up. So to go deep on a story, you

1734
01:42:55,040 --> 01:42:57,599
Speaker 1: want to read more than one source on it. In fact,

1735
01:42:57,600 --> 01:42:59,080
Speaker 1: you want to read many sources on it most of

1736
01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:02,799
Speaker 1: the time. I feel the same way about being an

1737
01:43:02,880 --> 01:43:05,800
Speaker 1: autodidact chef. I don't know if that's a thing, but

1738
01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:08,000
Speaker 1: let's say that's a thing. Somebody who's self taught as

1739
01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:11,880
Speaker 1: a chef, which I am, and chef is way too

1740
01:43:11,920 --> 01:43:14,240
Speaker 1: grandiose a term for it. Somebody who can make some

1741
01:43:14,360 --> 01:43:20,639
Speaker 1: decent proteins and breakfast food and occasionally, no, that's really it. Actually,

1742
01:43:20,640 --> 01:43:23,120
Speaker 1: that's where I go. That's that's the full the full

1743
01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:25,960
Speaker 1: length of my culinary skills. But my scrambled eggs are amazing.

1744
01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:27,760
Speaker 1: I mean they're amazing. I cannot lie to you. Know.

1745
01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:31,679
Speaker 1: It's a very good thing to be able to make carroy.

1746
01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:33,719
Speaker 1: Oh wait, I was telling you. I see a Karen.

1747
01:43:33,760 --> 01:43:35,519
Speaker 1: I'll get to you in one second. I skip right

1748
01:43:35,560 --> 01:43:37,160
Speaker 1: over the secret for those you want to know, you're

1749
01:43:37,240 --> 01:43:39,880
Speaker 1: learning one thing today you can really use. Make sure

1750
01:43:39,960 --> 01:43:43,479
Speaker 1: that you know that you can take the eggs. And

1751
01:43:43,479 --> 01:43:45,599
Speaker 1: this seems so simple, but I never thought of it before.

1752
01:43:45,640 --> 01:43:48,719
Speaker 1: I always tried to adjust the heat. Eggs are so

1753
01:43:50,520 --> 01:43:54,639
Speaker 1: heat sensitive and cook so quickly that as you're going

1754
01:43:54,720 --> 01:43:57,040
Speaker 1: the moment you think that it's there, they're going too fast.

1755
01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:59,439
Speaker 1: Because overcooking eggs is what everybody does. This is why

1756
01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:02,120
Speaker 1: when you go to a diner and they say, hey,

1757
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:05,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna make you an omelet, and the omelet comes

1758
01:44:05,200 --> 01:44:08,479
Speaker 1: out and has those sort of brown scorched marks on

1759
01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:11,280
Speaker 1: the outside. I mean, eggs should never have brown scorch

1760
01:44:11,360 --> 01:44:13,240
Speaker 1: marks on it. That's not a good sign. That means

1761
01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:16,920
Speaker 1: they cook the you know what out of it. Be

1762
01:44:18,400 --> 01:44:22,720
Speaker 1: comfortable taking your eggs off the burner entirely, So just

1763
01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:24,760
Speaker 1: move it off the burner, move it somewhere else on

1764
01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:26,920
Speaker 1: your stove, Move it somewhere where it's not overdirect heat,

1765
01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:28,559
Speaker 1: because there's still going to be heat in that pan,

1766
01:44:29,160 --> 01:44:31,439
Speaker 1: so it's gonna stay very warm, in fact, will continue

1767
01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:34,760
Speaker 1: to cook. But that's just a way more effective I

1768
01:44:34,880 --> 01:44:38,000
Speaker 1: find than you know, trying to get to like low

1769
01:44:38,120 --> 01:44:40,320
Speaker 1: medium or simmer or you know whatever. It's just just

1770
01:44:40,360 --> 01:44:43,320
Speaker 1: take it off that heat and then know that in

1771
01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:48,200
Speaker 1: the process is a necessary step. Karen, it's buck great

1772
01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:50,759
Speaker 1: that you talked about the starvation in China under Mao.

1773
01:44:51,160 --> 01:44:53,280
Speaker 1: Helen Raleigh, who grew up in China might be an

1774
01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:56,240
Speaker 1: interesting guest for your show. She is now a businesswoman

1775
01:44:56,240 --> 01:44:59,040
Speaker 1: who occasionally writes for The Federalist. I recently finished reading

1776
01:44:59,040 --> 01:45:02,040
Speaker 1: her book Can You Just Never Said, which is about

1777
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:05,280
Speaker 1: the hardships her family endured under MAO and how difficult

1778
01:45:05,280 --> 01:45:11,760
Speaker 1: it was to get American citizenship. Look, China is a fascinating,

1779
01:45:13,240 --> 01:45:20,160
Speaker 1: fascinating everything country, economic competitor, national security challenge, and we

1780
01:45:20,200 --> 01:45:22,720
Speaker 1: are about to enter a new phase now. I mean

1781
01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:27,400
Speaker 1: the last almost twenty years, you would say at this point,

1782
01:45:27,439 --> 01:45:32,800
Speaker 1: we've had a twenty year cycle now of interventions abroad,

1783
01:45:33,040 --> 01:45:37,439
Speaker 1: predominantly but not entirely, but predominantly in the Muslim world,

1784
01:45:38,439 --> 01:45:43,000
Speaker 1: and they have been counterinsurgency operations for the most bar

1785
01:45:43,080 --> 01:45:47,400
Speaker 1: counter terrorism that turns into counterinsurgency, and that's just been

1786
01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:52,400
Speaker 1: our focus. Radical Islam has been the primary enemy of

1787
01:45:52,439 --> 01:45:56,200
Speaker 1: America and the West for the last twenty years. We

1788
01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:59,200
Speaker 1: are shifting out of that now, not that radical Islam

1789
01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:01,960
Speaker 1: isn't still are and it's going to go away, but

1790
01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:05,400
Speaker 1: they're not going to be a primary or the primary threat.

1791
01:46:05,800 --> 01:46:10,400
Speaker 1: It's going to first it'll feel like China, China and

1792
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:13,799
Speaker 1: the US are butting heads more and more over economic matters,

1793
01:46:14,040 --> 01:46:18,000
Speaker 1: and then the national security challenges will become more apparent.

1794
01:46:18,680 --> 01:46:20,880
Speaker 1: So we are heading into that. I mean, I think

1795
01:46:20,880 --> 01:46:23,280
Speaker 1: we're going to be in a twenty year cycle and

1796
01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:27,480
Speaker 1: it's really starting now of US China struggle for dominance,

1797
01:46:27,640 --> 01:46:29,400
Speaker 1: and by the end of those twenty years, we're going

1798
01:46:29,439 --> 01:46:33,400
Speaker 1: to know who's the top dog. And that's what I

1799
01:46:33,439 --> 01:46:36,840
Speaker 1: see happening now. So I'm really trying to gear myself

1800
01:46:37,560 --> 01:46:41,040
Speaker 1: toward understanding that as much as possible. I'm going to

1801
01:46:41,200 --> 01:46:45,439
Speaker 1: China in May, at least that's the plan as of now,

1802
01:46:46,120 --> 01:46:50,920
Speaker 1: for all kinds of just basic ground truth tourism stuff

1803
01:46:50,920 --> 01:46:53,840
Speaker 1: and also some high level meetings with some business folks there.

1804
01:46:54,320 --> 01:46:56,600
Speaker 1: So I'm going to get some ground truth to be

1805
01:46:56,640 --> 01:46:58,240
Speaker 1: able to bring back to you here on the show.

1806
01:46:59,160 --> 01:47:01,760
Speaker 1: But is going to be at folks, I mean all

1807
01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:05,679
Speaker 1: it's amazing too. Notice how Russia, the Russia scaremongering since

1808
01:47:05,720 --> 01:47:08,799
Speaker 1: the Mulla report came out, has dropped off already so much.

1809
01:47:09,439 --> 01:47:14,120
Speaker 1: And Russia is not a realistic challenger to US. Yes,

1810
01:47:14,240 --> 01:47:16,599
Speaker 1: it has a very large nuclear arsenal, it's a very

1811
01:47:16,600 --> 01:47:19,280
Speaker 1: big country with a lot of natural resources, but it's

1812
01:47:19,400 --> 01:47:22,640
Speaker 1: it's little You know, it's a little weak sauce economy,

1813
01:47:23,439 --> 01:47:28,400
Speaker 1: just it's not a serious national security and economic competitor

1814
01:47:28,439 --> 01:47:31,000
Speaker 1: threat China is China is going to have a bigger

1815
01:47:31,040 --> 01:47:35,160
Speaker 1: economy than us and then a bigger military. Then well

1816
01:47:35,160 --> 01:47:38,240
Speaker 1: already has more manpower, but a more powerful military than

1817
01:47:38,280 --> 01:47:41,920
Speaker 1: ours under current with a current trajectory in a pretty

1818
01:47:41,920 --> 01:47:46,280
Speaker 1: short period of time. And we have no leadership really

1819
01:47:46,280 --> 01:47:48,160
Speaker 1: that thinks about this problem. I mean, the fact that

1820
01:47:48,200 --> 01:47:52,280
Speaker 1: matters that Trump is the first president in my lifetime

1821
01:47:52,720 --> 01:47:56,040
Speaker 1: who has at least been ringing the alarm bell about

1822
01:47:56,120 --> 01:47:58,719
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, China, we want with them on some things,

1823
01:47:58,760 --> 01:48:01,519
Speaker 1: but we want to try to be cooperative where we can.

1824
01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:05,280
Speaker 1: But China is a competitor. China is trying to become

1825
01:48:05,360 --> 01:48:07,880
Speaker 1: the global hegemon. It does not want to be in

1826
01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:13,559
Speaker 1: second place. Trump understands that, you know, his zero sum view,

1827
01:48:13,760 --> 01:48:17,200
Speaker 1: his hyper competitive view of all things interpersonal, inter business

1828
01:48:17,240 --> 01:48:21,080
Speaker 1: relationships has meant that Trump understands the threat that China

1829
01:48:21,320 --> 01:48:25,400
Speaker 1: poses to not just the US but the liberal Western

1830
01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:28,760
Speaker 1: world order over the long term. I mean, let me

1831
01:48:28,800 --> 01:48:33,080
Speaker 1: put it to you in these terms, the US China

1832
01:48:33,439 --> 01:48:36,160
Speaker 1: showdown that I think we're in the early stages of

1833
01:48:36,280 --> 01:48:40,000
Speaker 1: right now is going to be something akin to what

1834
01:48:40,439 --> 01:48:44,559
Speaker 1: you know ancient Greece and Persia were locked in. I mean,

1835
01:48:44,680 --> 01:48:46,760
Speaker 1: this is going to be the two great powers of

1836
01:48:46,800 --> 01:48:49,080
Speaker 1: the day, or people would say a new Cold War

1837
01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:53,000
Speaker 1: and that's you know, sure, that's that's another more recent

1838
01:48:53,520 --> 01:48:55,360
Speaker 1: version of it. But I like to get to the ancient,

1839
01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:58,479
Speaker 1: ancient Greek and ancient Roman stuff whenever I can. So

1840
01:48:58,640 --> 01:49:01,719
Speaker 1: that's what I see happening here. And so you're gonna

1841
01:49:01,760 --> 01:49:06,360
Speaker 1: hear more from me about China going forward. Tim, That's

1842
