1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: All right, second hour of Playing Buck kicks off with us. Now,

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: our friend Miranda Devine joins. She is the New York

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: Post columnist extraordinaire, author Laptop from Hell, among others, and

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 1: pod Force one hosts. And Miranda has always great to

5
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 1: have you on.

6
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 2: The program, Great to be with you. I hope this

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:22,799
Speaker 2: sounds okay.

8
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: Oh, it's great, It's fantastic. So tell us this comber.

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: Let's start with this one. Comer's subpoenas for every attorney

10
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: general that I think anybody can name going back twenty years,

11
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: and also Hillary and Bill Clinton, all this stuff. Do

12
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: you think this goes somewhere? Clay and I, I don't

13
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 1: know if you heard any part of this, but we're

14
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: both skeptical.

15
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 3: But what do you think? What does this mean? What happens?

16
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 2: Look, I mean, there's a lot of people trying to

17
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: do a lot of things. So just setting Congress aside,

18
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: because I think we've seen, you know, through the bi

19
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,039
Speaker 2: An administration, even when the Republicans did take the House,

20
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 2: for all their best efforts, it's pretty much a toothlus

21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: tiger unless it's in the hands of someone very machiavellian

22
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: like Nancy Pelosi. Who manages to put people like Steve

23
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: Bannon and Petere Navarro in jail for contempt of Congress.

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 2: I don't know that the Republicans in Congress are quite

25
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 2: that ruthless yet, but certainly Donald Trump and his Justice

26
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: Department people, whether it be Pam Bondi or Cash Fattel

27
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: and then CIA director John Ratcliffe, backed up by Chuck Grasley,

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 2: the Senator who's been sort of the champion of transparency

29
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 2: and whistleblowers forever, they are determined, they mean business. And

30
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: I think that's backed by the fact that Donald Trump

31
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 2: has a different attitude this term to his first term.

32
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 2: He told me in an interview that he yes, he

33
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 2: did feel angry a bit about these new revelations that

34
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: Telsey Gabbitt has been tabling about the origins of the

35
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 2: Russia hopes, about how Obama directed his National security intelligence

36
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: people to concoct this intelligence that said that Putin favored

37
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 2: Trump and that's why he won the twenty sixteen election.

38
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: That wasn't true, and it was just a sort of

39
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: a decoy from Hillary Clinton's problems and trying to solve

40
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: Obama's ego because Donald Trump's victory was a repudiation of

41
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: his eight years. So all of that has made Donald

42
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: Trump more determined. And he said in his first term

43
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: he wanted to show mercy. He thought the country should heal.

44
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: Even though his rallies his supporters were saying lock her

45
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 2: up about Hillary Clinton, he figured, well, look, she's the

46
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: wife of a former president, he's a former secretary of statate.

47
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: I just don't want to go after her and cause

48
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 2: the country to be in turmoil and chaos. I just

49
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: want to concentrate on fixing the economy, etc. Well, then

50
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: in the ensuing eight years, look what happened to him.

51
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: They targeted him with you know, impeachments, the Russia hoax law,

52
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 2: fair assassination attempts, you name it. And he's still standing.

53
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: The American people saw through it all. He want a

54
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 2: comprehensive victory that they can't try and be legitimized like

55
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 2: they did in twenty sixteen. And now he wants accountability.

56
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: And he said so, and he's told all his people,

57
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 2: and I think his people want accountability. I mean Tulsi

58
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: gabbartt and Cash Betel both have been targeted by the

59
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 2: deep state by well in Telsy Gabbett's place allies of

60
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton who wanted to get their revenge on her

61
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: and put her on the Quiet Sky's program. You have

62
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 2: so many people within the Trump or that who were

63
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: targeted like he was and are victims of that deep

64
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: state and are tougher and stronger as a result. So

65
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: they are all on the same page. They want accountability

66
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 2: and not about retribution and vendettas. It is about a deterrence.

67
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 2: You can't trust these people not to do it again

68
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 2: to the next Republican or MAGA president because the last

69
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 2: time that Trump showed mercy, they just doubled down. So

70
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: never again, I think is the motto of the Trump administration.

71
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 4: We're talking to Miranda Devine, who was right on basically

72
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 4: everything over the years. Let me ask you a big

73
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 4: question here, Miranda. Let's pretend that Jeff Bezos called you.

74
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 4: Let's pretend that whoever is the Sulzburgers or whoever heck

75
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 4: runs the New York Times. Now, those two entities gave themselves,

76
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 4: through their friends in the media, Pulitzer Prizes, and I

77
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 4: think as a result of awarding what has been proven

78
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 4: to be legitimately untrue scoops that were given the highest

79
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 4: order of award that can happen. They just refuse to

80
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 4: acknowledge that everything they wrote about Russia collusion was wrong.

81
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 4: I think if you look up Buck and I talked

82
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: about this a little bit, is that Jason Blair back

83
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 4: in the day, The New York Times did a huge

84
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: front page story when they realized that he was a

85
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,239
Speaker 4: fabulous that he had made everything up, and they said,

86
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 4: you know, we expect when we get things wrong, that

87
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 4: we acknowledged that we got things wrong. What should the

88
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 4: New York Times in the Washington Post do today? We

89
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 4: all know they screwed up for a decade. If you

90
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 4: were asked your best advice for those institutions based on

91
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 4: the false reporting that they did surrounding Russia and.

92
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 2: More, that's a really good example to you. The Jason

93
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: Blair example. Back in the day when these newspaper institutions

94
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 2: were regarded as being the sort of pinnacle of journalism

95
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 2: and everybody wanted to work there. Well, I mean, I

96
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: think they're too far gone. But you know, if they

97
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 2: wanted to try and clean house and make amends, they

98
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 2: ought to start by giving back those dirty Pulitzer prizes.

99
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 2: I mean, the Pulitzer Foundation ought to be rescinding them.

100
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: But unfortunately, I think, like the Nobel Prize, it's lost

101
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 2: any cachet since they produced it by giving it to

102
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 2: undeserving people. The Nobel Peace Prize, remember, went to Barack

103
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 2: Obama and he barely had his feet under the desk.

104
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: And you know Donald Trump, who did the Abraham Accords,

105
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,119
Speaker 2: it just was ignored. And the Pulitzers are the same.

106
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 2: So you start by giving back the Pulitzers, and then

107
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 2: you do a comprehensive investigation of what went wrong, and

108
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 2: you do front page mea culpers. Telsey Gavitt pointed out

109
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 2: that these organizations, you know, whether it be The Times,

110
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: The Post, the Washington Post, NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC,

111
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 2: they devoted something like two thousand minutes to the Russia hoax,

112
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: and so far they've devoted two minutes to collectively to

113
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 2: the revelations of the last two weeks that show that

114
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: this was you know, a total hoax, a plan, a

115
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 2: coup to bring down Donald Trump, to sabotage his presidency,

116
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: to delegitimize his election victory, and to sow discord with Russia.

117
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 2: And this was all Obama and Hillary Clinton, and they

118
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 2: sticked their you know, CIA director Brennan, FBI director Coney,

119
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 2: and James clapperty NSA guys. So all of that should

120
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 2: be gone into with you know, seven pie line extravaganzas

121
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 2: that they devoted to the original hoax and it ought

122
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 2: to be they should be in sackcloth and ashes, and

123
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 2: they should fire people. They should humiliate former editors who've

124
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 2: left for their so called leadership of that newsroom. I think,

125
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: I mean, it's the only way that they could restore

126
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: their reputations. But unfortunately, the way they've curated their audiences,

127
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 2: I think they would lose subscriptions. I think their readers

128
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 2: would go ballistic because they don't want to know the truth.

129
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 2: They just stick their fingers in their ears and continue

130
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: on blively. You know, the Rachel matter is their patron

131
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 2: saint of journalism.

132
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: We're speaking of Moreenda Devine Podforce one isra podcast and Marenda.

133
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: I had the distinct honor and pleasure of getting to

134
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: a second with you on Will Kine Show a couple

135
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: of days ago, and.

136
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 3: You were fabulous, by the way, just throw that out there.

137
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: Absolutely appreciated getting to hang out with you and with

138
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: Will It's like a great there's always a great time.

139
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: But we were talking about this grand jury component of

140
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: the Russia collusion. I guess now transparency effort that the

141
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: administration is going through. I know that it's early and

142
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: we don't really know, but what is your sense. Do

143
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: you think that the administration is preparing for the possibility,

144
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: at least politically, of indictments to come down against people

145
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: like Brennan and Clapper or is that just way too

146
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: far afield in your mind?

147
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 2: No, I absolutely think that's the case. I mean, they're

148
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 2: very smart prosecutors in the Department of Justice who are

149
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 2: looking at this being creative. Look how creative the Biden

150
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 2: Department of Justice was when they were coming after Donald

151
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 2: Trump and various other of his allies. So there are

152
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 2: multiple cause on the books, probably too many, and they

153
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 2: can be employed and deployed in various ways to certainly

154
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 2: bring charges against these coup lotters. And you know, at first,

155
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: John Ratcliffe, CIA director kicks the ball rolling, I think

156
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 2: at the beginning of July with that review of the

157
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 2: you know, the bogus intelligence assessment, and he was talking

158
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: then about perjury charges. And then you know, they've talked

159
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 2: that the statute of limitations will have run out twenty

160
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 2: five years. But then that that you know, certainly Brennan

161
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 2: and some of the others may have also allegedly purjured

162
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 2: themselves when they gave testimony to some of the Biden's

163
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 2: impeachment inquiries, and so which is more recent. So that

164
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 2: was then, and now I think the whole conversation has

165
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: moved on to looking at conspiracy charges. And as John

166
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 2: Ratcliffe said just on Sunday to Maria Bartiroma, that conspiracy

167
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: continued through to this day, through the Biden administration and

168
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 2: to this day. So I think, you know, they have

169
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 2: a lot of leeway there to look at tying up

170
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 2: a lot of people. And I'm hearing that there's more

171
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 2: than one grand jury that they're contemplating, and paneling in

172
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 2: Florida would be one, maybe in d C. Just ease

173
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 2: of access for documents, and I think it's going to

174
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 2: be a big issue, and why wouldn't it be. You know,

175
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 2: you have the immense power of the federal government Department

176
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: of Justice. You now have Tulsey Gabbard who's really relentless

177
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 2: in pushing through any deep state obstruction she's getting from

178
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 2: these agencies to get documents and she's just referring them

179
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 2: straight to the DOJ. So I think it's going to

180
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 2: be fruit for them. And as we've heard, I mean

181
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: James Clapperson himself, he's lawyering up. Jonathan Turley says that

182
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 2: all of DC is lawyering up, and the lawyers are

183
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 2: more than busy, and some of them are having to

184
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 2: lawyer up themselves. I think it's good.

185
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 4: And you know you're in a tough spot, Miranda, when

186
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 4: your lawyer wants to get his own lawyer, that's all

187
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 4: I always say. Well, that's a tough spot. Let me

188
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 4: ask you this quickly on the way out. I would

189
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 4: say the number one concern of our audience is, we've

190
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 4: heard all this. It's a lot of you know, flapping

191
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 4: of the gums, so to speak, a lot of talk.

192
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 4: It has never actually led to anybody being charged with crimes,

193
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 4: not even talking about convictions. What do you think the

194
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 4: chances are that there are people indicted for crimes and

195
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 4: that there is in some way at least that or

196
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 4: an arrest for crimes. If you were setting odds more

197
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 4: or less likely than fifty percent.

198
00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 2: I'd say more. And in part that's because exactly as

199
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 2: you say, we're all cynical, we're all fed up. The

200
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 2: boy has cried wolf a million times and nothing's ever happened.

201
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 2: And so I think that that actually is an issue

202
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: for Donald Trump with the loyalty of his base, because

203
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 2: they're sick of promises, they're sick of being led down

204
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 2: the garden path, and nobody ever is brought to account.

205
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 2: And therefore the deep state, the bad guys, the wrongdoers,

206
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 2: whatever you call them, the coup lotters, they just get

207
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 2: more and more emboldened. And it's very dangerous for the Republic.

208
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 2: It goes beyond Donald Trump. It goes to, you know,

209
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 2: the very survival of this country that you cannot have

210
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 2: this two tier system of justice where one side gets

211
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 2: just killed for the most minor issue and the other

212
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: side gets away with murder. Literally.

213
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 3: Rand, appreciate you being with us.

214
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: Thank you as always, Thank you great to talk to you, boy.

215
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: Uncertainty in the world causes all kinds of reactions, and

216
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: you know, right now things are looking up to Trump economy,

217
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 1: but as you know, systemic long term things like the

218
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: debt and what's going to happen if rates aren't dropped

219
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: this fall, things can turn in a hurry. You need

220
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: to take action for yourself. Trump's taken action for three

221
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty million Americans. With this economy, You're in

222
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: charge of your own bank account, your own financial future,

223
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: and you need to make smart decisions. I think having

224
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: gold is a smart decision. I know because I'm somebody

225
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 1: who has gold and has been buying gold for years.

226
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: Birch Gold Group is who I trust. I've been adding

227
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: over time to gold in my portfolio and it has

228
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: just made a lot of sense. Gold over the last

229
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: year has gone up over forty percent, over forty percent,

230
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: and that's not trading in and out of it. That's

231
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: just if you bought gold a year ago, up over

232
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: forty percent. Look, gold makes sense, look at history, and

233
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: look at its price. All you have to do is

234
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: check out what my friends at Birch Gold Group have

235
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: to do for you, and they can send gold and

Speaker 1: they can convert an existing IRA or four oh one

238

Speaker 5: You don't know what's you don't know right, but you

244
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 5: could On the Sunday Hang with Clay and Buck podcast.

245
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 4: Well back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show, Our Thanks

246
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 4: to Miranda Divine. Governor of Texas Creg Abbot going to

247
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 4: be up next hour. I gotta say Miranda saying she

248
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 4: thinks there's a greater than fifty percent chance that there

249
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 4: are going to be arrests surrounding the lies that we're told,

250
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 4: I would take of anybody out there in media who

251
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 4: has been willing to take slings and arrows, particularly if

252
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 4: you work at a newspaper. I'm not sure that Miranda

253
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 4: took more than anybody in media for what she wrote

254
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 4: about the hunter byden laptop, all the work that she

255
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 4: did on all of that, And to me, for her

256
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 4: to say she expects for there to be consequences is

257
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 4: a prediction that I would pay attention to. So I

258
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 4: remain skeptical. I think you remain skeptical that there will

259
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 4: actually be charges brought. But her saying there might be

260
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 4: multiple grand juries is interesting because I said, to me,

261
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 4: linking all of this to one crime is very difficult,

262
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 4: I think, but then you're kind of doubling your odds.

263
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 4: Maybe you get shot down in DC, but you could,

264
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 4: I think, maybe get some indictments in Florida.

265
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: Maybe we've seen the right learn something from the approach

266
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: that the Democrats took of for criminal prosecutions for hand

267
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: picked jurisdictions, or they didn't pick the Florida jurisdictions very well.

268
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: I think they just that was just an extra shot

269
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: on goal for them. But yeah, what's the old phrase, Clay,

270
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

271
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: That Yeah, I think that's increasingly. I said it on

272
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: the show yesterday. I guess that a lot of people

273
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: want an eye for an eye approach. The Democrats with

274
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: the legal system and the weaponization of law, I get it.

275
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: You know, it's if it's within the scope of the law,

276
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 1: or you can make the case, maybe you give it

277
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: a shot, put it to a jury.

278
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 4: Well, I think a lot of people would just even

279
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 4: if they don't get the conviction, getting the grand jury

280
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 4: indictment I think for a lot of people would be

281
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 4: validation in some way because they get the arrest. You

282
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 4: have to post bail. Eventually, you have to either plead

283
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 4: guilty to a lesser crime, or you have your trial.

284
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 4: I think indictments from a grand jury would be seen

285
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 4: by many people as a validation of the lies that

286
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 4: you had to swim through for so many years. And

287
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 4: Miranda thinks that's more likely than not. I hope she's right.

288
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 3: Me too.

289
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, you know, glad, we didn't have a huge

290
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: bet on this one.

291
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 3: All right?

292

Speaker 1: How often does how often does your office have fire drills? Look,

293
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,960

322
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,439

329
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: it is perhaps it is perhaps an interesting brand situation,

330
00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: as the most famous person of the name Crockett is

331
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: currently a Democrat member of Congress, Congresswoman Crockets, and has

332
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: nothing to do with Crocket Coffee, obviously nothing to do

333
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: with our company. But she got some attention from President

334
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 1: Trump yesterday. In the broader context of who is running

335
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 1: the show at the Democrat Party. Wanted you to hear

336
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: this one play cut one.

337
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,479
Speaker 6: Democrat Party is self destructing. I mean, when you have

338
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 6: low IQ people like Crockett, I wonder if she's in

339
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 6: a relation to ship to the late great Davy Crockett,

340
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 6: who is a great, great, great gentleman. I wonder if

341
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 6: she's got a relationship to Davy Crockett, the great old

342
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 6: Davy Crockett. But you have this woman Crockett. She's a

343
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 6: very low IQ person. Somebody said the other day she's

344
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 6: one of the leaders of the party. I think you

345
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 6: gotta be kidding. The Democrats are lost. They have Trump

346
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 6: derangement syndrome so bad that they can't walk, they can't go,

347
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 6: they don't know where they're going. Humor is finished watched

348
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 6: the other day. He's lost all of his confidence.

349
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 3: What are you making a clay?

350
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 4: I think, first of all, it's very funny, and Davy

351
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 4: Crockett is an American icon, American original, and Jasmine Crockett

352
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 4: is an American moron. But I think what Trump has

353
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 4: hit on is really actually a very important part here

354
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 4: of the struggles that Democrats have had since his election.

355
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 4: No one is the chief spokesperson for the party, and

356
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 4: we told you this. Whatever you think about Nancy Pelosi,

357
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 4: I think Nancy Pelosi was smart and diabolical when it

358
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 4: came to managing and advancing the political agenda that she

359
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 4: believed in the most, and she got when she was

360
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 4: the Speaker of the House, she had everybody lined up

361
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 4: behind her. She could snap her fingers and everybody moved

362
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 4: in the direction she wanted to them to go.

363
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 3: Buy in Mars.

364
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 4: It's a very impressive leadership. Hakeem Jeffries, I mean, I

365
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 4: don't even think Kakeem Jeffries responds well to question when

366
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 4: he is talking.

367
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 3: You mentioned JB. Pritzker earlier.

368
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 4: I think there are a lot of Democrat governors with

369
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 4: fundamental flaws which limit their overall nationwide appeal. So whether

370
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 4: it's Gavin Newsom, whether it's JB. Pritzker, whether it's Josh Shapiro,

371
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 4: whether it's Andy Basheer, whether it's Wes Moore, who Gretchen Whitmer,

372
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 4: whomever you want to point towards and say, oh, this

373
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 4: person has been a great governor. They're going to be

374
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 4: the future of the Democrat Party. Bernie's too old. I

375
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 4: actually think the more and more I've thought about this,

376
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 4: and it's embarrassing how much time I sit around thinking

377
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 4: about things like this, I actually think AOC is the

378
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 4: face of the party. And I'm not saying that because

379
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 4: I think that AOC is a brilliant tactical politician or

380
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 4: anything else. I think she has the ability to get attention,

381
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 4: and I think she has the ability to dictate conversation

382
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,959
Speaker 4: in some way. Doesn't mean that I think she's going

383
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,439
Speaker 4: to be elected president or anything else. I'm cure if

384
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 4: you would sign off on that right now, if I

385
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 4: had to pick one person that is the face. I mean,

386
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 4: there are lots of people who want to be it, right,

387
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom is trying to do everything he can to

388
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 4: be the face of the Democrat Party. But I actually

389
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,959
Speaker 4: think it's AOC. I think AOC if I were pointing

390
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 4: to somebody. She's young, she's a minority, she is adept

391
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 4: on social media when so many Democrats are unable to

392
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 4: do anything. I do not think she's particularly smart. I

393
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 4: do not think that she is particularly skilled at communication.

394
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 4: But I do think of all the Democrats, she's number

395
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 4: one on the list of who is the person that

396
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 4: I think of who is most likely to be the

397
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 4: face if you're taking away people like Bernie.

398
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 1: I said that right after this last election, and I

399
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: still I think I was saying that in January of

400
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: this past year, and I still stick with it. Clay,

401
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: You know, there's there's a to me. The question is more,

402
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,640
Speaker 1: is it AOC top of the ticket. And then somebody

403
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: like A who's that? Who's that Democrat in your in

404
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: your no in Kentucky and Kentucky Sorry, who's the Democrats?

405
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 3: Bashir? Yeah, somebody like that.

406
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: The idea is, oh, we've got another. We got a

407
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 1: more normal, sort of down the middle democrat there too,

408
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 1: so people will believe it more when AOC says I'm

409
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 1: not really a communist, or is it the other way around.

410
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: AOC is more the vice president, you know, to make

411
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: the base happy, and then you've got somebody who's more

412
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 1: like a Biden, who's just an empty suit to allow

413
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: the communist policies to go through. But I think that's

414
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: the only way they can do it. Remember, Democrats can

415
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: only win national elections by pretending they aren't really democrats

416
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: when the whole country is voting. That's the only way

417
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: they can pull it off. They have to pretend they're

418
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 1: less democrat or less left wing than they actually are.

419
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 1: It's a fool you game.

420
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 4: The one thing I don't know about AOC, and I'd

421
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 4: be curious how you would analyze this is Kamala win.

422
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 4: She had to talk fell apart, and that's not a

423
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,400
Speaker 4: good thing for democrat politician or a Republican politician, because

424
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 4: basically your job is to talk. And I wonder if

425
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 4: AOC faces real pushback. We've never really seen her on

426
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 4: a debate stage. We've never seen her prove that she

427
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 4: has the ability to translate whatever message she has to

428
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 4: a larger scale. She's fine when she's on a prompter,

429
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 4: she's fine when she's at a rally and she knows

430
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 4: what she's going to say. But when you get into

431
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 4: those debates, this is where Trump excelled. And I always

432
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 4: love the quote everybody has a plan till they get

433
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 4: punched in the face, the Mike Tyson famous quote. A

434
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 4: lot of people don't perform that well in that debate universe,

435
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 4: in the basically sort of royal rumble that becomes an

436
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 4: American presidential campaign, the primary more so than the actual general,

437
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 4: because if you're the general nominee, it's just one v

438
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 4: one the royal rumble style primary debates, anything can happen.

439
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 2: You know.

440
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 4: I don't know if she has that next level, next gear.

441
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 4: But I can look at JB. Pritzker and say he's

442
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 4: two flawed. I can look at I actually think he's

443
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 4: made awful decisions. I think Gavin Newsom has I don't

444
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:12,439
Speaker 4: think California Democrats are gonna play well. Josh Shapiro, to me,

445
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 4: is the no brainer choice. But evidently he's not considerable

446
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 4: by a large portion of the Democrat base because he's Jewish.

447
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 4: Mayor Pete I think is out of the race because

448
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 4: he's gay. You know, you can start to just kind

449
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 4: of x people out, and what I get left with

450
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 4: is kamala versus kamala versus AOC like that.

451
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 3: That's kind of where I see you.

452
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,919
Speaker 1: Know you you were, you were cruising along there and

453
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: you were doing a great time on your lap and

454
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: then you blew a tire clay and you spun out

455
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: and you just went about one hundred and eighty miles

456
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 1: an hour into the barrier.

457
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 3: I don't know.

458
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened there at the end you

459
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: were about to get way through with a checkered flag.

460
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 3: I just I don't.

461
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 4: Andy Basheer is a total woss And I feel bad

462
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 4: like kind of taking a two by a forwarded this guy.

463
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 4: But he is every loser fraternity chair that nobody in

464
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 4: the fraternity actually respects. But he's like the secretary of

465
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 4: the fraternity. Do you hear what I'm talking about? Like yes, no, Like,

466
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,479
Speaker 4: if you're actually in the fraternity to have fun, you

467
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 4: don't want the responsibility of being the president or the

468
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 4: vice president or the treasurer of the like Andy Basheer

469
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 4: is the treasurer of the fraternity. He got in because

470
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 4: his dad was a member of the fraternity. He walks

471
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 4: around in He's penny loafers and his polo.

472
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: Oh hey, nothing wrong with penny loafers and polos, sir.

473
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, he's the guy who's like, are you

474
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 4: sure we need that many kegs? You know, everybody's like,

475
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 4: could be a loser. Dude like that is Andy Basheer.

476
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 4: So I have I understand that there are tons of

477
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 4: losers in the Democrat Party, but even for Democrats, I

478
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 4: think they're going to look at Andy Basheer. I'm actually

479
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 4: I think electing Andy Basheer twice is one of the

480
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 4: most shameful things that's ever been done in the history

481
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,239
Speaker 4: of the state of Like, I'm sorry, Kentucky. And so

482
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,919
Speaker 4: this guy is such a limp, limp wristed loser. I mean,

483
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 4: did you see his Vogue photo shoot? I mean, come on,

484
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 4: a Vogue photo shoot. That's how you're gonna launch yourself

485
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 4: on the national stage. He shut down churches. He wouldn't

486
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 4: let you guys even play basketball for goodness sakes during

487
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 4: COVID because he thought it was too dangerous. I just

488
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:22,919
Speaker 4: I look at this guy and I just think he's

489
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 4: a clown. But I think you can do this for

490
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 4: a lot of these guys. I think Josh Shapiro is

491
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 4: actually fairly smart. Unfortunately for him, in the modern Democrat Party,

492
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 4: you may not be elected in a primary being Jewish.

493
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:35,679
Speaker 4: I've said it before, and I hate to say it,

494
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 4: but it is true.

495
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 3: JB.

496
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 4: Pritzker is just too fat. I mean, we're never going

497
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 4: to I don't think do you agree with me on this?

498
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 4: We're never going to elect a morbidly obese president. I

499
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 4: know fat taft got it back in the day that

500
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 4: was pre television. I just think it's not like Chris

501
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 4: Christy same way, like it's not gonna work in a

502
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 4: television age. Am I wrong on this? Or do you

503
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 4: sign off? There is a level of shell be no

504
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 4: that you just can't come overcome.

505
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: He could just start slapping some peptides and he dropped

506
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: that weight in a in a hot second, though, so

507
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: maybe that change. Maybe yeah, But if you see him

508
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: all of a sudden and he'll start telling everybody, I'm

509
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: just eating chicken breast and getting in more steps. But

510
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: if you see him drop one hundred and fifty pounds.

511
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: He's running for president for sure.

512
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 4: Well, I think he's going to run no matter what.

513
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 4: But I think he'll look like Al Sharpton and Al

514
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 4: Roker did. When you drop like one hundred and fifty pounds,

515
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 4: the skin is still there and you look like you

516
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 4: know that training, you got to keep that lean muscle

517
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 4: mass while you're dropping those LB's very very important. Otherwise

518
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 4: you look like you look like you're just evaporating, which

519
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 4: is not a good thing. But I think this is

520
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 4: the challenge that Trump was kind of getting at, and

521
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 4: I think he gets to the essence of issues very frequently,

522
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 4: which is there's a void of leadership. And unfortunately for Democrats,

523
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 4: morons like Jasmine Crockett, who are very outspoken have stepped

524
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 4: into that void. And the faces of the Democrat Party,

525
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 4: and there are multiple, most of them do not appeal

526
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 4: to anyone with a functional brain who is persuadable to

527
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 4: vote for either a Democrat or a Republican. And I

528
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 4: think that's the challenge they find themselves in, is it's

529
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 4: not going to be an easy way to get out

530
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 4: of that rut, which is why I was talking about

531
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 4: this on the start of the show.

532
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 3: So why I'm stunned.

533
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 4: That there isn't Ram Emmanuel has tried to do it,

534
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 4: that there hasn't been more of an attack on the

535
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 4: left yet. Gavin Newsom tried to do it. You got

536
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 4: to have your Sister Soldia moment where you're like, hey,

537
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 4: like Bill Clinton tried to do. Hey, I'm a Democrat,

538
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 4: but I'm not crazy, and you have to actually start

539
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 4: to attack people inside of your own party. Maybe that's

540
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 4: going to happen in the future. Nobody's been willing to

541
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 4: do it yet.

542
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: Just a note on some breaking news actually was occurring

543
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: this morning, but we're getting more live updates on it.

544
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: Our team is monitoring very closely everything that's coming out

545
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: of this. The Fort Stewart Army Base shooting. This is

546
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: in southeast Georgia. Was locked down. Five people at the

547
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: Fort Stewart Army Base we're shot this morning. So this

548
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: was the shooter shot. The shot members of the second

549
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: Armored Brigade Combat Team area of the base. So this

550
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: is forty miles to the southwest of Savannah, and this.

551
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 3: Is we have.

552
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: We don't have anything other than five people were shot.

553
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 1: The base was locked down, and we're the President has

554
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: been briefed on it. Secretary Nome has been briefed on it,

555
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: and we're monitoring this for additional information. But right now

556
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: that's what we got. But we are because some people

557
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,239
Speaker 1: have been weighing in saying, hey, are you guys seeing this?

558
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: We we're watching it and the shooters in custody. Team

559
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: has got that for us. But as as to motives

560
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: as to status of those who have been shot, my

561
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: understanding is, you know, the incident is over, but if

562
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: we have any more further rather you know, it's it's

563
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: all clear on the base now, there's no more lockdown.

564
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: We'll have updates for you on this as they come.

565
00:31:54,760 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 4: In no doubt, and some reports out there, Fox News

566
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 4: reported I even hate diving into this because these new

567
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 4: stories are breaking and we don't want to be wrong

568
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 4: about them, but that there does not appear to be

569
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 4: any fatalities. So that is what Fox News has put

570
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 4: out at least one of their reporters on the shooting

571
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 4: related incident. The shooter, like you said, is in custody. Look,

572
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 4: we'll come back, we'll break down more of this, continue

573
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 4: to update you as we roll through the program, But

574
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 4: I have to tell you right now, violence continues to

575
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 4: pour in all over Israel, and as a result, they

576
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 4: are trying to build bomb shelters to protect everyone. And

577
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 4: if you are in Israel, you have spent much of

578
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 4: the past two years, unfortunately having to run for air

579
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 4: raid sirens into the bomb shelters. And I've said it before,

580
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 4: and I've said it and continue.

581
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 3: To repeat it.

582
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 4: If Israel laid down weapons today, it wouldn't exist within

583
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 4: a few weeks. If the rest of the Middle East

584
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 4: would put down their weapons, there would be peace in

585
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 4: the Middle East. And you saw that on October seventh.

586
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 4: Now's your time to stand with Israel and they're hoped

587
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 4: for peaceful future. You can call eight eight eight four

Speaker 4: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Uh Dean

596
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 4: from South Florida. H juays in what's Dean got for us?

597
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:44,239
Speaker 3: Funt all right?

598
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: I say that made my headspan is you know Animasher's week,

599
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: he's olympres prit skurr is obs you know, do nothing.

600
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 3: Then you've got you know newsgum.

601
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: Well they all got elected somehow.

602
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 3: I mean, who is voting for the idiots?

603
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 4: This is a question that I'm sure many of you

604
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 4: sit around thinking about a great deal. I do not think,

605
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 4: and we've talked about this a lot, I do not

606
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 4: think we are represented by the best possible candidates. I

607
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 4: think a lot of people who are successful in life

608
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,280
Speaker 4: say it's not worth getting into the mess of running

609
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 4: for political office.

610
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 3: The easy answer is JB.

611
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 4: Pritzker is a billionaire, and Andy Basheer's daddy was governor

612
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 4: of Kentucky, and lots of people. If you have billions

613
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 4: of dollars to spend, you're gonna get elected.

614
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 3: That's the reality.

615
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 4: And if your daddy was governor, you have a really

616
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 4: good chance of getting elected too. Ultimately, it falls on voters,

617
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 4: and voters sit and watch television ads and they get

618
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 4: influenced by them while claiming they aren't, and if they

619
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 4: know a name, they'll show up and vote for the

620
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 4: same name.

621
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:52,840
Speaker 3: Again.

622
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 4: This is why dynasties and politics happen, because a lot

623
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 4: of people liked Andy Basheer's daddy, and so they've decided

624
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 4: to vote for the treasurer of the fraternity UH to

625
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 4: continue to be representing the state. To me, Kentucky's an

626
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 4: embarrassment because Bashier has been an awful governor and they

627
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 4: rubber stamped him to return. That's the part that I

628
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 4: would say is UH is disappointing. Jamie Pritzker just bought

629
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 4: the governor's race in in Illinois. I mean, he's a

630
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 4: billionaire kid. He just can pay whatever he needs to

631
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 4: be able to get elected. I mean, I think that's

632
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 4: the answer.

633
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. Not not impressive. Not impressive people at all. So

634
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: there's that, and that's unfortunately the case.

635
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 3: UH.

636
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: Paul and Huntington Beach.

637
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:40,399
Speaker 3: What's going on, Paul?

638
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 6: How you doing?

639
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 2: Guys?

640
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 3: We're good? Hey.

641
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 6: I want to know, UH, what are you guys going

642
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 6: to get your coffee into costco?

643
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 4: Well, that would be thank you for the call. That

644
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 4: would be a help move if we could get there.

645
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 4: And right now we are going straight direct to consumer

646
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 4: and thousands and thousands of you have signed up. You're

647
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 4: even starting to hear the ads elsewhere. That would probably

648
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 4: take a few years, I mean candidly, because you have

649
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 4: to be able to produce direct to consumer products at

650
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 4: a massive scale to be able to get into Costco.

651
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 4: I'm not sure, frankly, whether Costco would like the politics

652
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 4: of Davy Crockett. They tend to be a left wing

653
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 4: organization of a company like ours that believes in American exceptionalism.

654
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 4: But we'll see, Buck, you're about to bounce, you're going

655
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 4: to be. I don't know if you told people where

656
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 4: you're gonna be the next few days or is that

657
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 4: a top secret.

658
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 3: I don't want to blow blow things away. I'm heading

659
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 3: to the mountains of North Carolina.

660
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: So if you see a guy with poofy hair, a

661
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: beautiful wife, and a really cute baby and a stroller,

662
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 1: come say hi.

663
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 3: It's me
