All Right, this show, 23 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: we spend a lot of time talking about fighting for 24 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,839 Speaker 1: sanity in an insane world. Buck, I would have never 25 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: believed that we would be in a position where we'd 26 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: be saying, Hey, only women can have babies. I would 27 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: have never thought that that would be considered to be 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: unacceptable or transphobic language at any point in my life. 29 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: Today in the Senate, Senator Josh Holley of Missouri, who's 30 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: been on this show quite a lot. We're fans of his. 31 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: He was questioning a cal Berkeley law professor. Her name 32 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: is and I want to make sure I get this right, 33 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: although I might mispronounce it, Kia Bridges. She I just 34 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: want you to listen to this audio between the two 35 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: of them, because I think it crystallizes how far left 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 1: wing Democrats have gone when it comes to the trans agenda. 37 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: They want to say that people can get pregnant, not women, 38 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: that men can get pregnant. And it's actually transphobic of 39 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: you and me and anybody else out there who suggests 40 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: that only women can get pregnant. Listen to this exchange 41 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: today in the Senate. You refer to people with a 42 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: capacity for pregnancy. Many women SIS women have the capacity 43 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: for pregnancy. Many FIS women do not have the capacity 44 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: for pregnancy. They are also trans men who are capable 45 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: of pregnancy, as well as non binary people who are 46 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: capable of pregnancy. So this isn't really a women's rights issue. 47 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: It's we can recognize that this impacts women while also 48 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: recognizing that it impacts other groups. Those things are not 49 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: mutually exclusive. Senator Holly, Oh, So, your view is is 50 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: that the core of this right then, is about what? 51 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: So I want to recognize that your line of questioning 52 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: is transphobic and it opens up trans people to violence 53 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: by not recognizing that, Wow, you're seeing that I'm opening 54 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: up people to violence by asking whether or not women 55 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: are the folks who can have pregnancies. So I'm one. 56 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: I want to note that one out of five transgender 57 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: persons have attempted suicide. There's so much here, Clay, we 58 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: got more that we're going to play for you too, 59 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: I think as well. But Buck, I mean, this is crazy. 60 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: This is though the argument of the left today, This 61 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: is their orthodoxy, this is doctrine. Well, this professor from 62 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: California University of California at Berkeley law school, law school 63 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: at tough law school to get into. Althoughwise we know 64 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: now the entire I'll just say this, the entire elite 65 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: school apparatus has collapsed into nonsense. Effectively, there are morons 66 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: at all of these places. Now let me tell you, okay, 67 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: there are idiots everywhere. I was looking at Ivy League 68 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: business schools and I went to work for Glenn instead. 69 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: Jackass is a plenty there law schools. I have tons 70 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: of friends that went to Harvard Law, YEAE aw, all 71 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: these places. There are really smart people who go there, 72 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: but it does not mean that everybody who goes there 73 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: is of even a mildly impressive intellectual level at these 74 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 1: different schools. So just start with that for anyone who's wondering. 75 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: Clay and I were just talking about where where do 76 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: you want your kids to even go to school? Think 77 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: about it a lot now. I mean, I don't know 78 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: what to say because the professors at so many institutions, 79 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: and look, they've changed hiring standards, they have pushed very 80 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: hard and affirmative action and higher education. I think it'll 81 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: be interesting to look back and see that when the 82 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: Supreme Court, I do believe, will overturn affirmative action. It's 83 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: fall then what you'll have to do, well, they'll have 84 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: to see is that these universities have put all these 85 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: people on ten year track. We're given them tenure who 86 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: would never have been hired otherwise because they do change standards. 87 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: We all know they change standards. That's the reality of 88 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: the college admissions and hiring process. What does it look 89 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: like going forward in higher education? But that's a conversation 90 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: we'll be having when that's court decision comes down on 91 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: what she says, though this is fascinating. One out of 92 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: five trans people have attempted suicide, she says. She cites 93 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: that statistic to shut down a conversation about who can 94 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: get pregnant and normally you look like you'd say, so, 95 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: are you telling me that there's a high correlation between 96 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: being trans and having severe mental illness? Or are you 97 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: blaming anyone who does not go along with all aspects 98 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,239 Speaker 1: of the trans agenda, with somehow creating the extreme mental 99 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: illness that leads to a disproportionately high suicide attempt rate. 100 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: That will be one part of this that I would 101 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: want to have a greater discussion with. But also note 102 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: that when the left says, you're opening people up to 103 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: violence by disagreeing with us. Not only are they trying 104 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: to silence people that disagree, that's of course, it's meant 105 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: to emotionally batter you into submission. It also, though, opens 106 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: the grounds for the state to use force actual force 107 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 1: against you, because if your speech is actually violence, is 108 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: that it is therefore justified for the state to threaten 109 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: or use violence against you to stop your speech, as 110 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: in arresting people for hate crime, speech that the trans 111 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: community finds so offensive, et cetera, et cetera. The argument 112 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: is very clear, and this is what they believe. This 113 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: is what the left believes. This is not aberant. Yeah, 114 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: the cal Berkeley professor specifically says men can get pregnant 115 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: and says that it is transphobic to argue that men 116 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: cannot get pregnant. You are being forced, as a part 117 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 1: of this Democrat dogma now to say things that are scientific, 118 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: biological wise. And to me, Buck, what is so fascinating 119 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: about this is how much did you and I get 120 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: lectured for being anti science, were questioning the efficacy of 121 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: the COVID shot or the intelligence of lockdowns. You and 122 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: I got absolutely lacerated by the blue checks for having 123 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: the gall to suggest that lockdowns and mandatory vaccine vaccines 124 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: and all of this did not make sense. We wanted 125 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: grandma's dad. We were anti science, and yet the Democrat 126 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: dogma now is men can get pregnant. And I could 127 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: set this up as a very straightforward challenge for the 128 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,679 Speaker 1: people that make this argument and understand, you must mouth 129 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: the preferred slogans or else they will attack you. Macy 130 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: Gray just went through this the Grammy Award winning, you know, millionaire, 131 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: famous singer. She said, and a woman is a woman, 132 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: and thinking you're a woman doesn't make you a woman. 133 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: Very straightforward. She's one percent correct. And now she's had 134 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: to do the whole walk back because the left completely, 135 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: you know, jumped jumped on her, attacked her from from 136 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: every direction and every angle. They want you to affirm 137 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: what is clearly true, because it debases your ability to 138 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: reason through everything else when you have to say that 139 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: this is by the way, this is a classic tactic. 140 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: If you listen to that professor, she does sound like 141 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: she's in a cult. I mean the way with the 142 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: fluidity that she is making these statements that are so 143 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: obviously untrue and stupid. It would be like sitting there 144 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: with somebody who says, no, you don't understand. We've done 145 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: all the research and the world is going to end 146 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: next week. We have looked at the sacred charts, and 147 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: the sacred charts tell us that that's when the magic 148 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: aliens are going to land here and the world ends 149 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: in a ball of fire. There's a certainty in the 150 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: stupidity that almost shows you the synapses of the brain 151 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: have been lined up in a very specific way through 152 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: repetition of what is untrue. Also, I would love for 153 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: Senator Holly, in addition to being called transphobic for saying 154 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: that only women can get pregnant, I would love for 155 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: him to follow up with this UC Berkeley professor and 156 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: actually expose the flaws of logic in her line of 157 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: thinking based on this buck if you can pick your 158 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: gender to her, I would love to hear her try 159 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: to answer this, why can't you also pick your race? 160 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: Because she's a black woman, and she would be furious 161 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: under Democrat dogma if someone who was not black decided 162 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: they wanted to identify as black, or if someone who 163 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: was not Hispanic wanted to identify as Hispanic, or Asian 164 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: or why whatever it is. Your racial identity, as we 165 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: have talked about, is set in stone, per Democrat dogma, 166 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: but your gender can be whatever you wanted to be, 167 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: and we'll think about it as well. They use the 168 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: term non binary, meaning neither specifically manage or specifically female. 169 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: There's a binary choice of gender that we've lived with 170 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: for all of human history and science, etc. Etc. Now 171 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: they say non binary, but we know that everyone is 172 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: effectively multiracial, that every one of us is, in fact, 173 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: at different levels and degrees multi racial or multi ethnic 174 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: in our background, which is the beautiful thing. But it's 175 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: much more open to a perfect example of this, Kamala 176 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: Harris is referred to as both the first African American 177 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: female vice president and the first South Asian female vice president. 178 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: You know, in terms of her background, right because one 179 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: parent is I believe from India and our parents from Jamaica. 180 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 1: Now that's true, great, fine, But there's clearly more variability 181 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: in racial and ethnic background that all of us have. 182 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: Anyone who's done twenty three and me knows this than 183 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: gender variability. There actually is. And remember they're not making 184 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: because they will often try to confuse us on purpose 185 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: intersects as a physical reality is not the case that 186 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: they are making because even people who are intersects, they 187 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: used to refer to this as being in a hermaphrodite condition. 188 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: They're generally more one than the other. But they can 189 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: have vestigial oregan you know, it's incredibly rare biologically, It's 190 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: like a one in a million. It's like a one 191 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: in a million circumstances. Some people are born with sex organs. 192 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: That would suggest I think it's like Kleine syndrome something 193 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: like that, unless I'm misremembering it from from biology. But 194 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: that is a reality. It's wildly uncommon, and almost instantly 195 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: they make a decision, oh, we're going to raise this 196 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: child as either male or female based on which one 197 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 1: they are more likely to be reflective of. But this 198 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: is not the transagenda, and the trans doctrine is not. 199 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: We need to specifically understand those because most of those 200 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: individuals end up living as male or female and they 201 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: go toward That is not what they're saying, though. What 202 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: they're saying is the physical reality is irrelevant. You can 203 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: have entirely developed you know, male testes and sex organs, 204 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: everything else, and now you are to be treated not 205 00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: as somebody who is emotionally and psychologically associated with the 206 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: female gender, but as a woman period. This is you know, 207 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: there's a there's a degree of religiosity in this that 208 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: people need to understand. This is a it's a little 209 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: bit like you have to accept that there is a 210 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 1: miracle of science that has transpired here and that's how 211 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: you get to men can get pregnant because they can't 212 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: and we will never lose this, bet Clay. Not only 213 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: that it has real consequences oftentimes, Let's say that you 214 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: are having to be rushed to an emergency room and 215 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: they're trying to figure out what's wrong with you. Pretending 216 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: that you're a different gender than you are changes the 217 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: way that you will be treated, right, because the doctor 218 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: is responding, oh, what could be wrong, Well, if you 219 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: have an ovary, something might be different. Then if you 220 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: don't be male and women. Men and women have different biologies, 221 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: which often leads to different things that could be wrong 222 00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: with them when they're rushing into the hospital. But this 223 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: is emblematic. I think playing that clip is important because 224 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: that is Democrat dogman, and she also despises It's very 225 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: clear despises Josh Holly. Oh, yes, for the most basic 226 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: recitation of fact. And that's right. This is this is 227 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 1: everyone needs to get used this. Obviously, Macy Gray learned 228 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: this the hard way, which is you can now be 229 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: hated by people who want to who want to ruin 230 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: you and to make an example of you for saying 231 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: something that is as objectively true as two plus two 232 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: equals four. Yes, people will say, how dare you it 233 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: equals five? You should get fired from your job. And 234 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: it's not just us, it's not just adults. They're doing 235 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: this to kids. They're doing this to very young children. 236 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: They're pushing this all over the place. This is this 237 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: is a societal madness. And this is why we say, man, 238 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: we're we're living on team reality. Here they're arguing Buck 239 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: that sometimes doctors get the sex of a baby wrong. 240 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: That's what they're defensive to doctors. That's like, I mean, 241 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: it's like the doctor made quite a mistake. Yeah right, 242 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: I mean I've been there for three babies. I felt 243 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 1: pretty confident when they came out what sex they are. Yeah. 244 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: Do you just see there was some video that was 245 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: circulating of some guy who's I think it was a 246 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 1: vice video who is really opposed to a male circumcision. 247 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: There's a movement. I didn't know about this vice I've seen. 248 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: I've seen some of these guys walking around with their 249 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: very animated about Ye saw that over we I don't 250 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: know if you'd seen that one. All right, we got 251 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: to get into more on all this coming up here, 252 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: and just a second, friends, American farmers are sounding the alarm. 253 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: Many farmers have shared that they are running out of fertilizer, 254 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: which is essential to growing crops, and that means we're 255 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: very likely to have food shortages. Think about it. Without fertilizer, 256 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: you can't grow food in the quantities you're used to, 257 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: something that we take for granted. Look, it doesn't take 258 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: a prepper to see the dangers here.

This is a really interesting I 277 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: hadn't seen it laid out this way before. This is 278 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: from the data the data analyst over at five thirty 279 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: eight and eight silver on presidential age, which we're getting 280 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: a lot of discussions about right now with the ten 281 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: oldest presidents at inauguration. Okay, oldest at inauguration. He's got 282 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: here people who talked about how Reagan was old. Reagan 283 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: was sixty nine at inauguration. Okay, he's the third old 284 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: this Trump was actually seventies. He was older for a 285 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: president most of the presidents, so on this list at 286 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: the top ten or sixty one sixty two, Joe Biden 287 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: was seventy eight years and sixty one days old the 288 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: day that he took office. He took office almost as 289 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: an eighty year old. This is not just some Republican 290 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: talking point. This is not just something that you know, 291 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: we don't like Biden's policies, folks. He is too old 292 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: for the job now, was too old then, and for 293 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: a second term. It's just reckless. Well, and remember, initially 294 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: there was a lot of argument about the fact that 295 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: Biden should say I'm only running for one term, and 296 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: then he refused, and he's tried to argue verse since 297 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: that he was going to be a two term president. 298 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 1: I think it in the wake of the mid terms, Buck, 299 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: this is why I expect in February or March for 300 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 1: Biden to announce he's not going to run, because I 301 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get forced out by Democrats. But also, 302 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: he doesn't have any power once he loses control of Congress, 303 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: so he is going to be a lame duck regardless. 304 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: And I just don't see any way that Democrats. I've 305 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: I've been referring to it as the weekend at Bernie's 306 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: Part two. I don't see any way they can drag 307 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 1: him across the finished line again. I think that that 308 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: is going to be a failure. I think it is 309 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 1: inconceivable that he could be the nominee and slowly, all 310 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: of a sudden, slow You're gonna have to throw some 311 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: dinner bets out there, Clay, I'm gonna think he's going 312 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: to be the nominee. I'm not as I think if 313 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: Trump announces, I think Biden thinks he can do it. 314 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: I will put a steak dinner on the fact that 315 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: Biden will not be the nominee. Let me think about 316 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: my bet. You put it on the line, Think about 317 00:17:58,560 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: whether you want to put it on the line. Back 318 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: pain one of those things that impacts the entire body 319 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: can leave you feeling pretty helpless when it hurts and 320 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: hits you. One of our listeners from Washington State named Mark. 321 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: He experienced numbness in his leg due to severe back pain. 322 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: He wanted to try natural drug treatment and not go 323 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,719 Speaker 1: with something more intense, and he went with Relief Factor, 324 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: easy to use.

Welcome back in Clay Travis 335 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: buck Sex to show fuck one of the consistently dumbest 336 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: athletes in America when it comes to sharing his political opinions. 337 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: And there's a long list, let's be honest. Lebron James. 338 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: Lebron James has been in the news a little bit 339 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 1: associated with this Britney Griner story because for those of 340 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: you out there who don't know, Britney Griner, w NBA player, 341 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: was arrested, as we have talked about on this show 342 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: for drug possession charges in Russia. She is still there 343 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: begging for Joe Biden to get her out. I believe 344 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: the latest is that Bill Richardson, former New Mexico governor 345 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: is now in kind of geopolitical hostage negotiator at large, 346 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: is kind of the job that he seems to have 347 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: now is now traveling over to Russia potentially to try 348 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: to get her out on behalf of the Biden administration. Well, 349 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: one of the w NBA coaches said, and I think 350 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: this is true. If it were Lebron James who had 351 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: been arrested, he would already be out in Russia. Now, 352 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: you know, why do you think about this? Why do 353 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 1: you think that's true? I think the political pressure would 354 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: have been way more intense to get Lebron out, And 355 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: I think that Joe Biden would have had to do 356 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 1: whatever it takes to get Lebron out. You think he'd 357 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: still be I don't. I don't think Joe Biden could 358 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: get with what's going on with Russia right now. I 359 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 1: don't think he could get anybody out of Russia. That's 360 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: my take. I think the political pressure would have been 361 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: so much that he would have to do whatever it 362 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: takes to get Lebron out. But Lebron was asked about 363 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: this on his own television show, Not Live. Remember Lebron 364 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: has I think probably the dumbest statement of all time 365 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: when he defended China in the wake of a former 366 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: general manager in the NBA saying that Hong Kong deserved freedom, 367 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: and Lebron James said the First Amendment was a bad thing. 368 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he basically bowed down to Chairman Mao and 369 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: to the leader right now, certainly of China Chairman z 370 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: and said, hey, I'll do whatever you want, blessed leader there. Well, now, 371 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: he says, and I think we've got a short segment 372 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: here from Lebron. This is an HBO show that he 373 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: does called The Shop, where he sits around in a 374 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 1: barbershop and opines on all different sorts of issues. Said 375 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 1: he doesn't even know if he'd want to come back 376 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: to America if he had been arrested in Russia. Here's 377 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: Lebron U political thought leader extraordinariy days now, how could 378 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: she feel like? America has her bank? Would be feeling like, 379 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: do I even want to go back to America? Do 380 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: I even want to go back to America? So I 381 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: guess Lebron would either stay in Russia, maybe Siberia would 382 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: be nice for Lebron and his family to relocate to, 383 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: or he would go to another country. But what does 384 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: he expect that she violated Russian law, she's pled guilty 385 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: to it. Why is America's fault that she's in a 386 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: Russian prison? Clay. This is why so many people get 387 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: very agitated with ultra famous, ultra rich professional athletes, actors, 388 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: the lack of gratitude for the country that they live 389 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: in that has created the possibility for them to be 390 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: so wealthy. A billionaire is a billionaire just because he's 391 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: good at sports and yes, and has created that and 392 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 1: protects their wealth. You know, the the police officers that 393 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: protect their their residents and their DNA day lives. The 394 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: truck drivers who make sure there's food in the store 395 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: for them, the you know, the male corriers. I mean, 396 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: you look at all these people that it functions so 397 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: well in America. This is actually I know, we talked 398 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: about the problems here this place, and anybody. I mean, 399 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: I've spent months and months of my life in different 400 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: places in the third in the true third World, that 401 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: we're really full of despair and poverty, and anybody who 402 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: sees what it's like in other parts of the world, 403 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: I think they have an even greater appreciation for how 404 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: azing this country is and that's just to be an American, Like, 405 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: that's just that's just table stakes to even be It's 406 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: it's amazing to even be here. There's a reason why 407 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: people are coming here, you know, illegally, illegally and the 408 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: huge numbers they do. Lebron James says something. I know 409 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,239 Speaker 1: it's flippant, and you know, he's trying to make some 410 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: kind of a point about how he's so disappointed in 411 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 1: America for not being able to, you know, get Britney 412 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: Griner out out of Russia this point, but it goes 413 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: into a larger context of statements that really do feel 414 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: like from Lebron and from other athletes and celebrities. We 415 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: just say celebrities in general. They just don't appreciate this place. 416 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you get the sense that a lot of 417 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: really rich celebrities are spoiled brats. They do not love 418 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: this country. They've been given so much by this country, man. 419 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: I think that's one of the reasons why people, you know, 420 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: why the Pat Tilman decision to go serve in the 421 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: Army Rangers, for example, and leave a what was there 422 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: three million dollar contract behind a service country after nine 423 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: to eleven in the you know, in the NFL. Obviously, 424 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: unfortunately there was a terrible situation unfolded and Afghanistan with 425 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 1: pat but point of her being, we like to see 426 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: that people actually appreciate the country that has made them 427 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: so rich and influential. Lebron's a billionaire. This is emblematic 428 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 1: of why I've argued and Buck, you've seen it. Most 429 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: people have not if every single American at eighteen years 430 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: old had to go live in a peace corps like 431 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: environment in a third world country for one year, you 432 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: had to go to a poor country in Africa, or 433 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: a poor country in Asia, or a poor country in 434 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: Latin America, and you had to do some form of 435 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: service for one year. I think that almost every single 436 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: American who did that, when they came back to the 437 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: United States would understand and appreciate a new how phenomenally 438 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: fortunate we all are to live here. And that's why 439 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: I believe Republicans have an incredible opportunity in twenty twenty 440 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: two and in twenty twenty four, because everyone who comes 441 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: to America that wasn't born here is coming here for 442 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: one reason, because America's awesome. Buck, you and I were 443 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: talking about the degree to which even super rich people 444 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 1: in other countries. They want to buy American properties New 445 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: York City, Miami, La, huge estates because they trust that, 446 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: unlike in their country, they are going to be able 447 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: to have title to that property and it isn't going 448 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: to be taken away from them just because the guy 449 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: who gets elected president next in their country doesn't like them. 450 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: We are the envy of the world. We are still 451 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: by far the shining city on the hill, and people 452 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: like Lebron who are so toned, are now representative of 453 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. We made fun of Jill Biden to 454 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: start this short this show, starting about breakfast tacos. But 455 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: if you combine that with Josh Holly questioning the cal 456 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,880 Speaker 1: Berkeley professor, and now with Lebron here staying, I don't 457 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: know if I'd even want to come back to America. 458 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 1: This is who the Democrats are. When they tell you 459 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: who they are, listen to them. You can't vote for 460 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: this anymore. It's absolutely true, folks, come back in just 461 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: a second. Here. You gotta hand it to bad actors 462 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: that choose cybercrime as a way of life. They continue 463 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: to innovate every day. If they can't steal your online 464 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: identity one way, they'll find another. The latest scam getting 465 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: momentum is taking stolen social security numbers and combining them 466 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: with phony names. Then they create new online identities which 467 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: can be used to apply for credit cards, unemployment benefits, 468 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: and open accounts, all in an effort to make a 469 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: quick buck.

And then Elon and Trump going a little 498 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: back and forth. That was interesting. You got some heavyweights 499 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: taking some online slugs at each other. But here is 500 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: CNBC's David Faber play this one. They have specific performance 501 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: in the contract. They are going to have a delaware 502 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: judge and force that contract and say these are the 503 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: reasons why. But most of the people that you speak 504 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: with are certainly that I have believe that that in 505 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: fact will be the case. Then the question is, well, okay, 506 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: you're forcing mister Must to buy the company, does he 507 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: actually agree to do it. There's this argument that being 508 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,959 Speaker 1: said lately that well maybe he won't comply with that, right, Well, 509 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: then we'd have a sit. They can put him in jail. 510 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: I gotta put him in jail. But I gotta put 511 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: him in jail. What is the claim? What is this? Yeah, look, 512 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: there's no way that this is going to lead to 513 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: jail time. I also don't believe in specific performance. For 514 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: those of you out there who are not familiar with 515 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: the legal concept of specific performance, sometimes, Buck you bought 516 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: houses over the years. If you sign a contract to 517 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: buy a house and then you try to back out 518 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: of it, depending on what that deal might look like 519 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: from a contractual perspective, you might be required to specifically perform, 520 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: and or the person who agreed to sell it to 521 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: you might be required to specific perform. Because we, for instance, 522 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: consider real estate to be so unique that it's not 523 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: easy to replicate somewhere else. I've never heard of someone 524 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: being required I think David Faber is one hundred percent 525 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: wrong here. I've never heard of specific performance being being 526 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: applied as it pertains to a forty four billion dollar purchase. 527 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: What I believe is likely to happen is this thing 528 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: is going to go into court. They're going to be 529 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: a lot of lawyers that make a lot of money 530 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: buckets good to be on this case if you're a lawyer. 531 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: But they're going to reach some form of compromise below 532 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: the fifty four dollars and twenty cents per share purchase price. 533 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: I think Elon must going to get a discount based 534 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: on some of the things that he's uncovered surrounding the 535 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: Twitter business, because I don't think Twitter has a lot 536 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: of options here. And if you look at the stock price, 537 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: it's back up a dollar forty today, suggesting suggesting that 538 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: maybe there's going to be fifty four twenty was the 539 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: purchase price. Maybe they agree at forty two dollars purchase price. 540 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: I think that's the most likely outcome here, forty forty 541 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: two thirty eight something like. Yeah. There are people who 542 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: are saying that there's Elon's concern over the bots, the 543 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: computer programs posing as actual accounts all over or Twitter, 544 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: and that there are too many and that that affects 545 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: the value. And I'm sure that's true, but I think 546 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: it's also true that he was way overpaying in that 547 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: initial offer for what Twitter is actually worth as a company. 548 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: And it's fascinating. I think when you think back to 549 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: how the initial reaction of the Twitter board and CEO was, 550 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this is so horrible. It's like a 551 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: till of the Hans invaded and taking us over. You know, 552 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: it's this terrible thing when they were getting I mean, 553 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: this is like if somebody says, hey, your house is 554 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: worth you know, two hundred and fifty K, I'll give 555 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: you five hundred four and you're like, how dare you, sir? 556 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: It's crazy how they reacted to his top dollar offer 557 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: just goes to show you, though, how ideologically invested the 558 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: current management is in this company staying as a province 559 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: of the woke left and staying as a tilted playing 560 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: field four Democrats, Yeah, and Buck. I think it's also 561 00:31:55,560 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: emblematic of how, to your point on the overvaluation of Twitter, 562 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: so many stocks and companies have tanked as a result 563 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: of the Joe Biden inflation and all of the challenges 564 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,239 Speaker 1: currently existing in our economy right now. It's funny how 565 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 1: quickly Twitter went from Oh, this is an existential threat 566 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: to our company to now suing demanding that Elon must 567 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: purchase the company for the price that he agreed to 568 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: buy the company for. Because the reality is they had 569 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: an opportunity to go out to the open market and say, okay, 570 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: Elon has offered fifty four dollars and twenty cents a share. 571 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: Who else is going to put a bit in? No 572 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: one did, And now the stock price is twenty dollars 573 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: below where Elon offered. If this completely falls apart, stock 574 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: price goes back down into the twenties. And so I 575 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: think they're going to come to some sort of agreement 576 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: at a lower price. Where Twitter acknowledges that some of 577 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: the data that it has provided has not been one 578 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: hundred percent accurate, and Elon says, okay, I will still 579 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: purchase it. I would bet somewhere in the thirty eight 580 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: to forty two dollars range if I were betting other possibilities. Again, 581 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: we talked about specific performance. I don't see it. I 582 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: think Musk would end up having to pay several billion 583 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: dollars in damages in order to get out of this deal. 584 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: I think they agree to a price in the thirty 585 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: eight to forty two. You still think he buys it, though, 586 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: because I'm wondering if this just in some way turns 587 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: into years of litigation and it's a money pit. I 588 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: think that Delaware they will resolve it within this calendar year. 589 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: They typically have the sophisticated judges because so many companies 590 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: are based there. They understand that time is of the 591 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: essence in these court proceedings, and so I don't think 592 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: this is the kind of case that drags on for 593 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: two or three years. I think before the end of 594 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: this year there'll be a resolution. It would be great, 595 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: because if Elon doesn't buy Twitter, I don't know how 596 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: our Twitter experience is going to go clay once they 597 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 1: start locking down parts of New York again with the 598 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: next variant, or not locking down really, but mask mandates 599 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: and all the rest of it. You know, they haven't 600 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: they haven't backed off all this stuff. They haven't decided 601 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: that it's all over. I don't. I don't just mean 602 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: the COVID things. I mean, it's not like Twitter has 603 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: agreed that they should stop censoring people. They haven't agreed 604 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: to that at all. They've they've decided to double down 605 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 1: and tell everybody, Yes, we think that there are responsible 606 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: things that people could say on contentious political topics, and 607 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 1: then there are the things that you're not allowed to say, 608 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: also known as being a conservative. Sober when we were 609 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: adding tens of thousands of Twitter followers in the immediate 610 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: aftermath of Elon announcing that he was going to buy 611 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: Twitter and suddenly they stopped. That was not because so 612 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: many new people were signing up for Twitter, by the way, 613 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,919 Speaker 1: which is a storyline they told it was they made 614 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 1: a shift in the back end of the algorithm that 615 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 1: allowed people to have full and organic reach. And you know, 616 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: and that was a game changer for those of us 617 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: who are operating. We are always swinging the bat with 618 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: a donut on it. That's what it's called, right, Yeah, 619 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: that's right. That's a good it's analogy. And it has 620 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: since vanished. Right. I don't know about you, but like 621 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: when I look and go and check and see my 622 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: follower account, it hasn't really budged very much in the 623 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: past several weeks compared to what happened in the immediate 624 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 1: aftermath of Musk potentially buying Twitter, and I think what 625 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: was happening there was all the data analysts were scrambling 626 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:29,280 Speaker 1: to try to take all of the inappropriate filters and regulations, 627 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: the donut on the bat, so to speak, in the 628 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: analogy you just made, and they're now trying to get 629 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: back to get back to some form of normalcy. It's 630 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: already seems like that normalcy has vanished and we're back 631 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: to far left wing Twitter all over again. We've got 632 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: some great guests coming up here in the third hour 633 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: of the program.

That's not the title, but we'll 637 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: tell you the time when you come back.

Talk 641 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: about where some of that COVID funding went. Here's a 642 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: here's a reminder for everybody. Clay a lot of money 643 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: during COVID went to equity training. What does that have 644 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: to do with the virus m fantastic question. Gonna be 645 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: a fun final hour of the day.
