He's the chairman of the Committee 24 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: on Homeland Security. He also is my congressman. I didn't 25 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 2: even know exactly what district I was going to be 26 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: in because they redistricted in the State of Tennessee and 27 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: my neighborhood is actually one congressman or the other congressman's 28 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 2: by street. So thank you for all the work you're doing. Congressman, 29 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 2: thank you for wrapping me and my family. And before 30 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,320 Speaker 2: we even get into the work that you're doing here, 31 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,839 Speaker 2: I know you're in the house, but when you saw 32 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: that the Senate changed their clothing rules to allow John 33 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: Fetterman to preside in shorts and basically a T shirt, 34 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 2: what was your reaction. 35 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: I think it's a joke, Clay, And first, thanks for 36 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: having me on. I really appreciate being on the show. 37 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 3: And I've got the best bosses in the world in 38 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: the seventh District of Tennessee, you being one of them. 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 3: This whole thing is a joke. I mean, imagine if 40 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: he were to go and rep a foreign dignitary or 41 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 3: it's so disrespectful. I can't really words. I'm speechless over it. 42 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 3: But It's just an accommodation for this guy, that's all 43 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 3: it is. And I honestly we should be more concerned 44 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 3: that he can't form a full sentence. But you know, 45 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 3: the clothing thing is laughable. 46 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 4: Congson Green, it's buck. Thanks for being here with us. 47 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 4: I know you're chairman of the Committee on Homeland Security, 48 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 4: so you are very much in the loop and up 49 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 4: to speed on what it's going on at our southern border. 50 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 4: As people see these numbers, and really I think a 51 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 4: lot of the videos the photos brings it home. Just 52 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 4: an endless stream, masses and masses of people coming across 53 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 4: that border. Ten thousand a day now, the kind of 54 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 4: numbers that are near the all time highs. What's going on? 55 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 4: I mean, who who isn't getting across right now? Is 56 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 4: what I always want to know. I mean, you see 57 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 4: the processing, you see what's going on. How is this 58 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 4: not an open border? 59 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 3: Oh, it is a complete open border. It's intentional from 60 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 3: Maericus and Biden. This is what they want. They want 61 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 3: to fundamentally change the nature of our country and basically 62 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: empower democrats into perpetuity. That's their goal, and they're willing 63 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: to accept, you know, rapists criminals, human traffickers, drug traffickers 64 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 3: coming into the country and potentially you know, I mean 65 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 3: eighteen thousand Chinese nationals, many in the age of the military, 66 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 3: with former associations with the military, just being released into 67 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 3: the country. It's insane and it has to be intentional. 68 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: Congressman, I saw a study and I'm curious if this 69 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 2: would comport with the numbers then the data that you've seen. 70 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: We don't talk a lot about who's making money off 71 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: of getting these individuals illegally into our country. And by 72 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,119 Speaker 2: the way, it's the Mexican cartels. I saw that they 73 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: are going to make this year more money. I think 74 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 2: the number was thirteen billion dollars the estimate that I 75 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: saw on illegal trafficking. This is not fentanyl, this is 76 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 2: not drug related. This is illegal human smuggling, getting illegals 77 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: into this country. And to put that in context, that 78 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 2: is more than the NFL is going to make this year. 79 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 2: So smuggling people illegally into the country, for the Mexican 80 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: cartels is a better business than football. 81 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: Does that comport with some of the numbers that you're seeing? 82 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,239 Speaker 2: And are I mean, is it an important for everybody 83 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: to understand what a big business. This is for the 84 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: cartels in terms of the profits they're making. 85 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, I think people should understand that Biden's open border, 86 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: Mayericus open border is funneling. And your number, I think 87 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 3: is accurate. The number I saw was fourteen billion for 88 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 3: humans and thirteen billion for drugs. We had crossed the 89 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 3: nexus issuear where the humans actually make them more than 90 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 3: the drugs. 91 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 2: Isn't that wild to even think about that when smuggling 92 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 2: is more valuable now for them than drug dealing. 93 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, the price point. You know, you can re smuggle 94 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 3: an individual, uh and then that individual comes across and 95 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 3: and does crime for you on the other side to 96 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 3: pay you back. If it's not a cash deal, you 97 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 3: know with the drug it's a one time thing. Uh. 98 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 3: So that that's that's what they're thinking. 99 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 4: So Congressman, when the bid administration says that they're on this, 100 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 4: I mean I've seen, for example recently they talk about 101 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 4: the border and they they bring up these refugee processing 102 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 4: centers they're gonna set up, I think they said, in Colombia, Guatemala, 103 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 4: and Costa Rica. So basically at different way stations or 104 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 4: different points along the way up through you know from 105 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 4: from our south up through Mexico and the United States 106 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 4: are trying to stop people, they say. But as I'm 107 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 4: looking at this, I'm just thinking to myself, why would 108 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 4: any First of all, you could always apply, get rejected 109 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 4: and then just come across the border the way they 110 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: have anyway, And for most people, why apply at a 111 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 4: migrant processing center when you just walk in and say 112 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 4: you're a migrant, you know what I mean? Like this, 113 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 4: this to me is just it's unseerious policy that they're pushing. 114 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: Actually, what's going to happen is what they do with 115 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 3: their CBP one app at those processing centers. They're just 116 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 3: gonna claim asylum and then those people have a ticket 117 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: from Guatemala or from Panama to come into the US. 118 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 3: This isn't going to stop any. 119 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: Oh, so it's even worse concrecsations. It's worse than what 120 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: I thought you're saying. 121 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 4: Basically, now they just get like a get into the 122 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 4: country free card exactly. 123 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 3: This is just going to incentimize more migration. And interestingly 124 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 3: enough had a conversation with the Guatemalan president about this. 125 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 3: It compels Guatemala if they cooperate to violate Guatemala's immigration laws. 126 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 3: So I mean, we're not even being a good neighbor. 127 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: Where does this all end? 128 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 2: I mean, because I think you probably would agree, Congressman, 129 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: that we are going to set all time record highs 130 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: and correct me if I'm wrong and follow this logic. 131 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 2: I mean, like Buck just said, I mean, when you're 132 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 2: telling five hundred thousand we've been talking about during the 133 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: course of the show, and you're telling five hundred thousand Venezuelans, hey, 134 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: as long as you were here before July thirty first, 135 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 2: you can go get a job now. To me, that 136 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: means millions of Venezuelans are going to start the march 137 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: if they haven't already north. They're never going to go 138 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: back to Venezuela. They're going to be in this country forever. 139 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: So where does this end? I mean, if we're at, 140 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: you know, six million illegals so far, why would there 141 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 2: not be an all time record of three or four million? 142 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: Now? 143 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: Because I think Congressman, given the fact that we've got 144 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 2: an election next November, what they're going to be saying 145 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: is if you want to come to America, you need 146 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: to come now, because we don't know who's going to win, 147 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 2: and they may shut down the border, which is going 148 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: to create even more chaos. 149 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? 150 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 3: No, you're not, You're absolutely right. This is this is 151 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 3: an incentive, right, so people, they've incentivized people to come, 152 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 3: and it's just like you know, China looking at Taiwan 153 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 3: that the biggest risk is right now because Joe Biden's 154 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 3: President of the United States, the biggest incentive to come 155 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 3: into America from wherever you are in the world. And 156 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 3: these people are coming from one hundred and sixty different countries. 157 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 3: It's not just Latin America and the Caribbean. It is 158 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 3: right now until next November, and so there it is. 159 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 3: There is some interesting movement though in the Democrat camp. 160 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 3: In fact, my committee this week we had a hearing 161 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 3: and one of the Democrats who was making the closing comments, 162 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 3: actually admitted that the drug cartels had control of the 163 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 3: southern border, which is a huge movement of the needle. 164 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 3: And you've got Mayor Adams, of course, you know, demanding 165 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: that Biden do something. Now his solution is money sent 166 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 3: to him, which is just more of an incentive. But 167 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 3: at least them, you know, saying this is a crisis 168 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 3: is a huge help. And at some point, you know, 169 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 3: Joe Biden's going to have to listen to these people 170 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 3: or he won't be their nominee. 171 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 4: So what happens then, I mean, Congressman, it seems like 172 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 4: this issue, it couldn't be any more clear. There's a 173 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 4: massive problem at our border right that is obvious to 174 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 4: anybody who pays attention and cares to know about it. 175 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 4: The Biden administration so far just seems to be wanting 176 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 4: to process people. I mean that the processing centers are 177 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 4: setting up abroad is an even better example of it 178 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: than I realized. So are we just going to see 179 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 4: what another two million and twenty twenty four going to 180 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 4: the country, or do you think that the Biden White 181 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 4: House is going to do something that actually stops the 182 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 4: flow in a meaningful way, at least for the election year. 183 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 3: Joe Biden's going to wear this around his neck for 184 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 3: the election if he gets to be their nominee, and 185 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 3: if he doesn't act, he's not going to be president 186 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 3: of the United States. Everywhere I go, this is the 187 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 3: number one issue, and they're increasingly Democrats saying this is unsustainable. 188 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 3: So our art comment is, just enforce the existing laws 189 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 3: on the books. If you just enforce the existing laws 190 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 3: on the books that would stop seventy five percent of 191 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 3: it reinstate. Trump's policies that'll stop ninety percent of it. 192 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 3: Pass hr TOW the bill we passed, and that will 193 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 3: stop all of it. That bill's sitting in the Senate 194 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 3: waiting on the Senate to do something. So at a minimum, 195 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 3: he could fire my arcus and then you know, say, oh, 196 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 3: I didn't realize this was bad, this bad, and oh, 197 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 3: you know, we'll fix it. That's that's a course of action. 198 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 3: Will he go that way? Yeah? I don't know, but 199 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 3: I certainly hope something happens. If he doesn't, we're gonna 200 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: We're gonna hold Maerka's accountable and try to get him 201 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 3: out of that seat. 202 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 2: Congressman, last question for you, do you think Joe Biden 203 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 2: is actually going to run as the nominee in twenty 204 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 2: twenty four based on what you see, based on what 205 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 2: all of us see. I'm sure there's constant talk about it, 206 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 2: both Democrats and Republicans in the House, sort of behind 207 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: closed doors. What's going on here. You're a doctor, You've 208 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: got a long background. You're not a doctor like Jill 209 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 2: Biden's a doctor. You're an actual doctor, What do you 210 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: think is going on here? Is he fit to be 211 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 2: able to be president of the United States? 212 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 3: He is clearly not fit. The performance in Vietnam, you know, 213 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 3: just recently at the UN. I mean, the guy is 214 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,479 Speaker 3: it's an embarrassment to the country and his cognitive abilities. 215 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 3: There is clearly some significant cognitive decline there, most probably 216 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: age related. And I don't Your question though, is do 217 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 3: I think he stays on the ticket and talking to 218 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,559 Speaker 3: the Democrats, they're getting to the point where they think 219 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 3: it's too late to pull him. Now, if that's the case, 220 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 3: then I guess he stays on and they go to 221 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 3: their convention, and they have all these super delicates, so 222 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 3: they could, I guess, pull him at the convention. But 223 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 3: I can't imagine that he stays. I just I don't 224 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 3: know how they can justify that to the American people. 225 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: But if he can't stay, how does he go? Yeah, 226 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: that's that's the question, right. 227 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 4: This is what we're stuck on all the time, Congressman, 228 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 4: because I mean, I can see the argument for why 229 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 4: he's got to go, but no one's been able to 230 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 4: convince me of how they let that happen without disaster 231 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 4: Electorally for the Democrats. 232 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 3: Well, if they put the right person in. I mean, 233 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 3: there are harder people out there for us to run 234 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: against than Biden. So you know, it may be, you know, 235 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 3: and there be an advantage to them to do that 236 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,439 Speaker 3: and have him step down. Now, you know, they could 237 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 3: use the constitution, they could ask him to step down. 238 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 3: They could replace Harris first, and then you know, declaring incoonfident. 239 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 3: I mean, there's there's many different possibilities of how to 240 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 3: do it. You know. The question is do they have 241 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 3: the will? 242 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 4: All right, Congress and great, appreciate you being with us 243 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 4: or thank you so much? 244 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks, guys, have a good day. 245 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: Are you want to fix the income? 246 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 4: You will benefit from an investment that delivers consistent returns 247 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 4: without compromising your financial security.

The story they did 269 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 4: put up about yes, about Portnoy's pizza. 270 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll talk. We'll talk about that when we come back. 271 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 2: And by the way, the congressman we just had on Buck, 272 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: have you ever I felt like a totally uninformed voter 273 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: when they redid the districts. I went to go vote 274 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 2: in my primary in twenty twenty two, and I didn't 275 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 2: know what congressional district I was in because I tried 276 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: to zoom in on the map, but like literally in 277 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 2: my neighborhood one street over, you can be on it 278 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 2: and you're in a different congressional district. I legitimately went in. 279 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 2: We just had my congressman on, Mark Green. I legitimately 280 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 2: went in not knowing what congressional district I was in. 281 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 2: Only time in my life where I've been totally clueless 282 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 2: as to like who am I voting for? What are 283 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: like anyway? That's that's crazy. And I know redistricting sometimes 284 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: is wonky like that. I've never seen it happen where 285 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 2: it's and street difference. We got some VIP emails because 286 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 2: we have a VIP email.

Listening to the commentary about crime. Part 289 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: of the solutions to have conservative criminal defense attorneys focused 290 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: on trying to get misdemeanor clients pre trial intervention, take classes, 291 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: and do community service in exchange for dismissal. That winnows 292 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: the criminal defendant population to rehabilitate those who can be 293 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 2: rehabilitated into productive, law abiding, tax paying individuals and those 294 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: that are unlikely to be rehabilitated and need more extensive 295 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 2: criminal justice system contact. All right, so I just say 296 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: this about, you know, the situation these days that they 297 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 2: basically told this Clay and I remember there were a 298 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 2: series of articles about California's three strike laws and there 299 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 2: was somebody who like went to prison for twenty years 300 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 2: because he stole a pair of socks as his third strike, 301 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 2: and every you know, this is all about being being 302 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 2: reasonable and being merciful and giving people second chances when deserved. 303 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 2: Right when you know there's what someone can do, there's 304 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 2: someone made a mistake that a person can make, and 305 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 2: that we can say, Okay, you know, don't do that again. 306 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 2: That's what pre trial diversion is for. You know, don't 307 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: do that again. You can't do that, you made a mistake. 308 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 3: Whatever. 309 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: When you're arrested for. 310 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 4: The fifteenth time or the fiftieth time, as we've seen 311 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 4: with some of these people, or when you just decide 312 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 4: you're going to run somebody over with your car and 313 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: murder them because you think it is amusing, as we 314 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 4: saw recently, I mean, something truly evil. You have to 315 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 4: be taken out of society. And you have to be punished. 316 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 4: I know this is straightforward to me. 317 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 318 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 2: And by the way, the email raised a good question. Remember, 319 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 2: in an adversarial system, the criminal defense attorney is supposed 320 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 2: to be advocating to the zealous extent of the law 321 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: on behalf of the accused. And again, I have done 322 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: that before as a criminal defense attorney. What happens with 323 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 2: the Soros prosecutors is you basically have two people on 324 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 2: the same side of the equation. You don't have an 325 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 2: adversarial system anymore. You have prosecutors who believe that the 326 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: defendants are being treated unfairly and therefore do not need 327 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 2: to be punished severely. And you have a criminal defense 328 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 2: attorney who is arguing for the most lenient punishment possible 329 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 2: on behalf of his or her client. And so you 330 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 2: actually don't end up in the same adversarial perspective. You 331 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 2: need both sides to be pushing against each other, as 332 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 2: opposed to both sides saying, oh, let's do nothing of 333 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 2: any consequence to this individual because we believe that the 334 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 2: system is racist, which is a fundamental flawed. Remember maybe 335 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 2: the only thing Joe Biden's gotten right in his career 336 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 2: was the nineteen ninety four crime Bill, which he now 337 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 2: has repudiated as being wrong. But the ninety four crime 338 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 2: bill was driven to a large extent by Democrats and 339 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 2: Bill Clinton, and it, I mean, was based on a 340 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 2: universal acknowledgment that crime had gotten out of control. And 341 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 2: guess what, it worked, and it worked really, really well, 342 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 2: and crime plummeted throughout the nineties all through the two 343 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: thousands until the BLM movement started, and crime has started 344 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 2: to surge again because people decided it's unfair to put 345 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,959 Speaker 2: criminals behind barr And that is why we need a 346 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: solution here, and we need it sooner further than later. 347 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you guys all about my friends at 348 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 2: pure Talk.

Now, So like when I walk 395 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 2: through the house, there's basically always either The Office or 396 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 2: Beverly Hills now two and oh. And I hate to 397 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 2: admit it, but I get sucked into these shows like 398 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 2: I'm busy and I'm thinking, you know, I got to 399 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 2: do this, I gotta do that. Forty five minutes later, 400 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,919 Speaker 2: an hour later, I'm sitting down on the couch watching 401 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: either of those shows. 402 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: Because they're almost irresistible. 403 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,479 Speaker 4: Wait wait, because Laura, I mean, I don't know if 404 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 4: she's listening or not.

Well, I think. 407 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 2: Laura's generation because Laura is two years older than me, 408 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 2: which would make her five years older than you. I think, right, 409 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 2: so the OC. By the time the OC became popular, 410 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: I think you were already married. So nine two and 411 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 2: oh was her high school and early into college, jam, 412 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 2: I think. 413 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: So. 414 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 2: Anyway, I'm watching it's amazing. And I will say this 415 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 2: on the name tag front because it just happened this week. 416 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 2: We've been going you one day, Buck will be back 417 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: in this. I'm sure your parents did it. We go 418 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 2: and we walk around the school to meet you basically 419 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 2: go through your kid's day to meet all the teachers. 420 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 2: So we had seventh grade and then we had tenth grade, 421 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 2: so we basically go through and meet all the teachers, 422 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 2: and you wear name tags and I wrote my name 423 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 2: on it, and we're sitting around, we're walking around or whatever. 424 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 2: I'm wearing the name tag and my wife's like, you're 425 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 2: supposed to write your son's name tag on the name tag. 426 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: Two, not just yours. So she was like, you're so cocky. 427 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 2: You just presume that all you need to do is 428 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 2: write your own But I never even thought about that, 429 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 2: Like you're supposed to now write to your boy buck, 430 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 2: not only my own name. I was evidently supposed to 431 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 2: write my son's name as well, so people would know 432 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,479 Speaker 2: who my kid was. I didn't even think about it, 433 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 2: like this name tag business. Maybe I'm anti name tag too. 434 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 4: I'm just telling you, the more you think about it, 435 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 4: the more you'll realize. And especially whenever whenever I've had 436 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 4: to go to events or something. First of all, if 437 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 4: I'm like the you know, not to be that guy. 438 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 4: If I'm the keynote speaker, I'm definitely not wearing a 439 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 4: name tag, okay, because you're supposed to know who I 440 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 4: am if I'm giving the speech, and if you don't, 441 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 4: you'll find out when I'm on the stage. I like 442 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 4: the interaction of hi, my name is and meeting people, 443 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 4: So I'm just telling you. People might think that I'm 444 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 4: being a stickler here, but name tags no good. Get 445 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 4: rid of them. You don't need them. 446 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 2: So, speaking of not meeting them, we teased this and 447 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: the story just came down while we were talking, so. 448 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: We played was it yesterday or two days ago? 449 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 2: The Washington Post was investigating, and maybe our New York 450 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 2: team can give us a few more details here. But 451 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 2: my understanding is basically, there is a pizza festival in 452 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 2: Brooklyn that is taking place tomorrow, and there are it's 453 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 2: like a pizza taste test festival where they have all 454 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 2: these different local pizza places in New York City, which 455 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: is very well known for having great pizza, and there 456 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,439 Speaker 2: are all different types of pizza, and I bet a 457 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 2: huge percentage of you out there are monster pizza fans, 458 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 2: and certainly if you live in New York City. When 459 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 2: I was a kid buck going to New York City, 460 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 2: one of the cool things to do was to go 461 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 2: into the pizza shop and get a pizza, slice of 462 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 2: pizza right and be able to experience that as a tourist. 463 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 2: I've got a huge percentage of our listeners have done 464 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 2: that at some point in time. And I know in 465 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 2: Chicago you're like, we like the deep Dish, And in 466 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 2: Detroit area they're talking, you know Detroit's pizza, you know 467 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 2: what it is, Detroit style pizza is square. I didn't 468 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 2: know this until I started dating my wife, whose family 469 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 2: is all from the Michigan in Detroit area. But it's 470 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 2: really good, deep dish kind of square pizza. There's all 471 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 2: different sorts of pot types of pizza, and people can 472 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: argue about them and everything else. The Washington Post Buck 473 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 2: did an entire piece on whether pizzas shops should be 474 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 2: associated with a guy who has had controversial past comments 475 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 2: which are all intended to be jokes, right, that are 476 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: sometimes considered to be too aggressive or unacceptable. And I 477 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,719 Speaker 2: read this entire piece to first of all, these are 478 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 2: food reporters. I don't know why you have food reporters 479 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 2: in the first place. I mean, if you want to 480 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: go review, go review restaurants or whatever, that's fine. Is 481 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 2: it controversial for pizza places to engage in a pizza festival? 482 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 2: I just the idea of this entire premise is crazy. 483 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 2: And they say, here's here's a guy who is upset 484 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 2: Joe Rosenthal, a Minnesota based mathematician who has positioned himself 485 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,959 Speaker 2: as the conscience of the food and restaurant industries. 486 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: Oh, he sounds like a lot of fun. 487 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 2: I mean, you want to talk about a guy who 488 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 2: has chicks for days Joe Rosenthal. No, the chicks just 489 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 2: lose it when they find out that this guy's the 490 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 2: conscience of the food and restaurant industry. Has been leading 491 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 2: the charge against those involved with the pizza festival. He 492 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 2: has posted regularly on his Instagram account with its thirty 493 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 2: three thousand followers, writing pizzeria's influencers and trade publications are 494 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 2: showing that Portnoy can continue his violent misogyny and campaigns 495 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 2: of abuse and they will continue to support him. He 496 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,120 Speaker 2: wants the public to know about past behaviors and pressure 497 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 2: them to not participate. 498 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: It's a pizza festival. I'm sorry, it's a pizza festival. 499 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 2: It's hard for me buck to even conceptualize of a 500 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 2: less controversial thing that could be going on than a 501 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 2: pizza festival. It's hard for me to think of a 502 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 2: thing that could have less of a political agenda than 503 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: a pizza festival. And the Washington Post is covering this 504 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 2: more aggressively than they are Hunter Biden. 505 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: Uh, illegal deal? I mean, what is going on here? 506 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 4: There's there's something that you're seeing more and more of it. 507 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: Uh. 508 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 4: It has existed for years, but it's become more apparent 509 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 4: and nastier. And it is those who work for some 510 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 4: of the traditional corporate democrat platforms, and we know the 511 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 4: big ones, right New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC. Uh, 512 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 4: they have a real animosity for people that are on 513 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 4: the outside and have built brands. I mean, look at 514 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 4: the way even someone who's not right wing but who 515 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 4: is open to other ideas like Joe Rogan, who has 516 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 4: built such massive influence in the digital space, and they 517 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 4: go they go after him a New York Times, Washington 518 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 4: Post on the COVID stuff, on a whole range of 519 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 4: things to say, misogynistic, sexist. Uh, there's a lot of 520 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 4: envy and a lot of resentment in the media. 521 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: Now. 522 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 4: There are people that work at the New York Times, 523 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 4: that work at the Washington Post in particular, and other 524 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 4: similar papers who really think that someone like a Portnoy 525 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 4: is a danger to society because he has influence and 526 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 4: he's not supposed to the editorial board at the Washington 527 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,239 Speaker 4: Post is supposed to. So there's it's personal for them 528 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 4: at some level when they're dealing with some of these 529 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 4: media figures. You know, I'm sure you I'm sure you 530 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 4: felt some a lot of sports from some of the 531 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 4: from the ESPN people, et cetera. You know who are 532 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 4: in that more establishment sports model mode. 533 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: I don't even know what. I only know ESPN. 534 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 4: I'm sure there's other places and other you know, sports 535 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 4: pages that people pay attention to. But that's I always 536 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 4: think of a part of this as well, and that's 537 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 4: why you see And then there's also just Clay the 538 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 4: Marxist politicize everything down to the last pizza crust, and 539 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 4: and that's something else that they do here. 540 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: I mean, this is like I mean O J. Simpson, 541 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: I'll just use him as an example. 542 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 2: O J. Simpson is not a very likable guy. He 543 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 2: committed double murder. But if OJ Simpson was involved in 544 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 2: salsa or OJ Simpson had like a chili tasting contest, right, 545 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 2: like something that is completely not controversial, I mean chili 546 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 2: or salsa or whatever, It's crazy to me that you 547 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 2: would build your entire free time like these guys are 548 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 2: angry that there's a pizza festival going on. 549 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: You want the pizza festival to not exist, I mean, right, 550 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 1: like just think I always go to like the end 551 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: result here. 552 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,640 Speaker 2: If this guy that the Washington Post is legitimizing by 553 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 2: putting two reporters on this story and covering it and 554 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 2: spending probably not kidding, hundreds of hours on this several 555 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 2: thousand word piece that they wrote about a pizza festival. 556 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 2: What's the end result If this guy gets what he wants, 557 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 2: there isn't a pizza festival. 558 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: How is that beneficial? 559 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: Like a pizza festival is something that people would enjoy 560 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: and you can go and you can eat pizza and 561 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: you can spend fun time. Like sometimes I think you 562 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: need to go to the end result of what these 563 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 2: people want, and it is a less joyful existence, right, 564 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: Like he's trying to shut down a pizza festival. If 565 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 2: this were super political, like let's say this is a 566 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 2: rally against illegal immigration or something, then I could see like, Okay, 567 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 2: I'm fired up about this. It's political. What this guy 568 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: is trying to do is shut down something that people 569 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 2: will enjoy and replace it with nothing. 570 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 4: But as you know, whether it's pizza or sports. Now, 571 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 4: the attitude of the left is everything is political. If 572 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 4: you hold the wrong views, they will boycott your donut bakery. 573 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 4: They don't care if you are not part of the team. 574 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 4: You are a target. If you oppose you know, mandatory vaccination, 575 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 4: or masking. If you don't think that men can become women, 576 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 4: if you think that we should have border security and 577 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:57,479 Speaker 4: immigration law should be enforced, you are de facto a target. 578 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 4: You are not even collateral damage anymore. You are actually 579 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 4: to be targeted if and when they have you know, 580 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 4: the bandwidth and the ability to do so. And that's 581 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 4: why I brought up something even like, you know, could 582 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 4: I get a fair trial in New York versus a 583 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 4: trial in Florida? Uh? You see that the mentality now 584 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 4: is intentionally to make everything so political that nothing can 585 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 4: be a political, and to force everyone to choose sides 586 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 4: on everything, and it becomes exhausting. 587 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I would love. 588 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 4: It if there were whole areas where we weren't constantly 589 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 4: being having politics shoved down our throat. Sports obviously, view 590 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 4: most of most yea, but media, you know, movies and 591 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 4: TV shows and everything. I wish we could all just 592 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 4: of take a moment, relax and say there are things 593 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 4: in life that we can all enjoy that aren't about 594 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 4: who you're going to vote for. 595 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: They reject that. 596 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 4: The Washington Post rejects that Dave Portnoy is not even 597 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 4: a Republican. 598 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: Might I note but. 599 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 4: He's just rogue enough from the regime line, and he's 600 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 4: enough of a you know, enough of a maverick that 601 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 4: he bothers them, and so they even want to make 602 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 4: his pizza fest or whatever one bite what is it 603 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 4: one bite fest or something? 604 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, we have I'll text him and see if we 605 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 2: can get him on next week because I'm curious how 606 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 2: this goes on. But I'm just like, just think about 607 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 2: this sometimes. What's the end result of what these people want. 608 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 2: It's a less joyful, fun society, right, because what they're 609 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 2: trying to do. I mean, imagine getting this worked up 610 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 2: about trying to shut down a pizza festival. That's what 611 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: they want, and that's what they're trying to do. And 612 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 2: that's the end result of so much of this cancel culture. 613 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 2: It's ending things that people like. I mean, you can 614 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 2: go take the step to Roseanne, right. The Roseanne Show 615 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 2: is pretty funny. Roseanne is a talented comedian and the 616 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 2: show about the Connors and everybody else like. 617 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: People enjoyed that. 618 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: But because Roseanne sends out a tweet, suddenly what she 619 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 2: creates cannot be enjoyed by people. 620 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: Like it was before. 621 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 2: It's just it's I think you said it, well, there 622 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 2: is everything is political, but it also just strips the 623 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 2: joy out of life. And I've seen it with sports 624 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 2: right I can't even go watch a game without having 625 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 2: to worry about who some of the quarterback votes for. 626 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 4: I'll just say it real quick, so I know we 627 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 4: gotta go to break but I remember, and it was 628 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 4: before he bought X And I know Elon Musk for 629 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 4: some people is controversial, complicated. I mean, I think the 630 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 4: guy is amazing and overall I think a hugely positive force. 631 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 4: But when he just said that wokeness is effectively taken 632 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 4: as a license to be really vicious, just to be 633 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 4: really mean to people and feel good about it, that 634 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 4: was a brilliant insight because it is so true, and 635 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 4: that was honestly the thing that Elon said that's stuck 636 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 4: with me more than anything else. 637 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 2: That is perfectly distilled. Writing a book not easy. It 638 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 2: takes focus and a lot of research. I just went 639 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 2: through it Bucks. 640 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: In the middle of it right now. 641 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 2: Our friend Dutch Minden Hall, also just authored a book 642 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 2: this year titled Money Shackles.

Go to school, get in debt, 649 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 2: buy a car, get in debt.

You know, Clay is ready to 714 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 4: give Fetterman detention.
