We hope all of you 4 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:16,600 Speaker 1: had fantastic weekends wherever you may be across this great country. 5 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: We are rolling, i believe today, fifty days until the 6 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: mid term. Buck, we'll get into some of the latest 7 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: polling numbers, some of the latest odd shifting where are 8 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: things moving? But Joe Biden hadn't done an actual interview 9 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: in over two hundred days, I believe was the number. 10 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: An unprecedented amount of days to not sit down and 11 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: do a one on one interview sixty minutes. As many 12 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: of you out there who watch NFL football knows, makes 13 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: a ton of money and viewership off their show coming 14 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: on immediately after the NFL ends on CBS many different weekends, 15 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: and that was the case with the debut episode of 16 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: their new season, and it featured a long form interview 17 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: with President Joe Biden and Buck. As is often the case, 18 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: the more Biden talks, the worse it goes for him. 19 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: His approval ratings went up when he got COVID and 20 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: when he spent a month on vacation during the summer. 21 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: Since he's come back and started talking, his numbers haven't 22 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: gone down, and now the left wing of his own 23 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: party is angry at him. There were a lot of 24 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: news related comments from Biden because he doesn't talk to 25 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: the media that much, but let's start with this one. 26 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: He said, the COVID pandemic is over. This was last 27 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: night on sixty Minutes. I want you to listen this 28 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: president first Detroit auto show in three years. Yeah, is 29 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: the pandemic over? The pandemic is over. We still have 30 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: a problem with COVID. We're still doing a lot of 31 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: work on it, but the pandemic is over. If you notice, 32 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: no one's wearing masks. Everybody's being pretty good shape. He 33 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: was wearing masks outside alone two years, two weeks ago, Clay, 34 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: for two years, they've been wearing masks. Two weeks ago, 35 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: he was wearing a mask. I saw people this morning 36 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: on the street in New York City, and I saw 37 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: more than just that. We'll talk about that later, wearing masks. 38 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: What changed between now and then, Oh, there's an election come, 39 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: They're really gonna do this right now, They're gonna do 40 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: the whole We're gonna tell everybody everything's great and hope 41 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: that they're just foolish enough to believe the propaganda. Clay. 42 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: They fired eight hundred and fifty teachers last week in 43 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: New York City where I am right now. Who could 44 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: justify this? They fired them for not getting the vaccine everybody. 45 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: They fired almost a thousand employees of the City of 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: New York last week because they won't get a shot. 47 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: And it's up to nearly two thousand I think teachers 48 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: in total total, but they just did eight fifty four. 49 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's way a fire people a year ago 50 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: was stupid and unfair. Find people now is just monstrous 51 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: and vindictive. I mean, this is completely insane. Why isn't 52 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden asked about that? Where is Mayor Eric Adams, 53 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: who is a total catastrophe, by the way, a buffoon, 54 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: an imbecile. Where is he on this issue? It's a 55 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: great question. And what I found most interesting about Biden's 56 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: comment there, for anyone who has a functional brain and 57 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: looked at the data, COVID was over by the summer 58 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty, and I know a lot of you 59 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: out there feel the same way that you knew what 60 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: the dangers were that you knew what you might need 61 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: to do depending on your individual health concerns. But basically 62 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: the data has continued to reflect if you're under the 63 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: age of fifty, you were never in any sort of 64 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: danger from COVID at all. You were far more likely, 65 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,839 Speaker 1: for instance, under fifty, to die driving to and from 66 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: your office than you were to die with COVID. And 67 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: certainly if you're a kid, the fact that we required 68 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: kids to wear masks at all. But Buck, what I 69 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: found most interesting about this was not Joe Biden saying 70 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: it because I agree with you. I think it's a 71 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: ploy to try to look like he's accomplished something as 72 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: we get ready for the mid terms. Because remember the 73 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: premise upon which Biden ran was twofold, I'll solve COVID, 74 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: I'll end COVID, and that whatever has not happened, really 75 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: And he also said I'll restore normalcy and decency to 76 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: the White House. That certainly hasn't happened either. But on 77 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: the COVID front, Buck, there's about thirty percent, twenty five 78 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: percent maybe of the American public, and they are wildly 79 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: overrepresented on social media and certainly way overrepresented in the 80 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: Blue Check brigade on Twitter that are furious at Joe 81 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: Biden for saying the COVID pandemic is over. I mean, 82 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: it was just trending last night. Number one trend was 83 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: COVID is not over, and they were ripping Joe Biden 84 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 1: for saying this. You know what this has really shown us. 85 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: They're so many different aspects of the of the COVID fauciite, 86 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: locked down or panic mentality. But one part of this 87 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: that I think now you can see very clearly is 88 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: that the same people who are addicted to victimization COVID 89 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: is victimizing them. Oh my gosh, COVID. I'm always so scared. 90 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: I have long COVID. I need four masks. I'm immunocompromise. 91 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: Have you ever, by the way, I actually have an 92 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: immune disorder, which is ciliac disease. I've never heard so 93 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: many people in my life running around dudo. Oh, I 94 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: I need everyone to wear a mask because I'm immunocompromise. Like, 95 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: you're twenty five years old and you've never said this 96 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: to anybody before, and you're a Blue Check and now 97 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: you're a Oh, now you're suspiciously somebody who's what the vulnerable, 98 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: The vulnerable people, you know, always vulnerable, people who were old, 99 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 1: people were overweight, people with severe health issues who are 100 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: old and overweight. Everybody else is pretty much fine, okay. 101 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: And the fact that we're still walking around listening to 102 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: people wide about this, it's what you're really seeing. The 103 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: same people who think it's it's a horrible catastrophe if 104 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: everyone doesn't announce their pronouns, you know, are the people 105 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,679 Speaker 1: who are now saying, oh, the pandemic, I'm so scared 106 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: of it all the time. Perpetual victimhood. They're addicted to it, 107 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: and COVID is an opportunity to play the victim for 108 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: them forever, by the way, forever. Yeah. I think one 109 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:28,679 Speaker 1: of the primary impacts of social media is it fetishized victimhood. Buck, 110 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: I'm old enough to remember, and you're old enough to remember, 111 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: even though you're still a very young man. Am I 112 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: old enough to remem Clay? You gotta be careful? Would 113 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: you use that construct? I don't know. When we were kids. 114 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 1: I'm betting you were taught the same thing that I was. 115 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: You never wanted to be a victim. If someone bullied you, 116 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: you stood up to the bully. And there's that great 117 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: scene if you want to sort of use it as 118 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: an epitomization of this Christmas story, you know, when Ralphie 119 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: confronts the bully and after getting picked on, picked on, 120 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: picked on, finally he just turns on the bully and 121 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: beats him up. I mean, that's one of the iconic 122 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: scenes in a marriage. I thought you were gonna go 123 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: with Marty McFly's dad when he knocks out the bully 124 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: at prom. It's like, one of the most inspiring moments 125 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: of my young life was seeing that guy get laid 126 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: out on the car. What would happen now is you 127 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: would go to your teacher. You would say, oh, somebody's 128 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: being really mean to you. You would go home, your 129 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: mom would sit you down on the couch. They would 130 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: take a TikTok video. They would put the TikTok video 131 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: up on social media. It would go viral, and for 132 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: being a victim, you would be fetishized that there would 133 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: be a great amount of outpouring of emotional support because 134 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,119 Speaker 1: of people being mean to you. And look, I wish 135 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: bullying didn't exist. I wish there weren't bad things in 136 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:59,239 Speaker 1: the world, but we have taught an entire generation of kids, 137 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: and they certainly are coming of age on social media 138 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: that being a victim is a point of pride. That 139 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: if someone is mean to you and you gives you 140 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: passial media and talk about its powerful. This is why 141 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: they this is why the COVID lunatics love this. It's oh, 142 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: you have to mask, you have to do this because 143 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: I said so, because I'm at risk. Yeah, and and 144 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: and buck. I mean, I keep coming back to stories 145 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: like Jesse Smallett and the BYU volleyball the duke volleyball 146 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: player at BYU, because this is the natural outgrowth of that. 147 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: People who aren't even victims now are so in love 148 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: with the idea of being a victim that they either 149 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 1: make it up whole cloth like Jesse Smallett did, or 150 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: they maybe best case scenario, if you're being really charitable 151 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: to this duke volleyball player, she thought she heard racial 152 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:57,479 Speaker 1: slurs when they weren't actually there because she's so conditioned 153 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: to believe that she's a victim, and then she goes 154 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: on social media and everybody praises her. And so this 155 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: to me, like the COVID, it's a good connection by you. 156 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: This COVID fearmongering, the fear porn as I've caused called 157 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: it for a couple of years. These people are not 158 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: going to let go. And I really wonder how does 159 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: the Biden administration, even if it's just for politics that 160 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: he says COVID is over, how do they manage to 161 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 1: convince the thirty percent or forty percent of the Democrat 162 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: base that will not give this up? How do they 163 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: convince them to go back to normal? I just know 164 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: whw they do. Obviously, today we're going to talk about 165 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: the Martha's Vineyard migrant debacle and the following of that, 166 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: and inflation and Biden's inflation, and so we got Charlie 167 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: Gasparino from Fox joining to talk about that. I mean, 168 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: we're going to tackle all these issues of border economy, 169 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: everything else. But why do we keep hammering COVID. We 170 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: keep telling everybody about this because we have enough people 171 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: listening in states that are up for grabs that if 172 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: this audience mobilizes on that issue at the polling place 173 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: when they're actually voting, there can be some accountability. But 174 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: also we can stop this. The Biden administration still wants 175 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: to bring back the federal mask mandate as a tool 176 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: they can turn on and turn off for people who 177 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: think this is all done. To your point about the 178 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: thirty or forty percent of hysteric meltdown, Lib Democrat basic 179 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: cost a lot to wing out there. By the way, 180 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: it's what's amazing to me too, is that they're actually 181 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: not seeing your citizens. Senior citizens have a perspective on life. 182 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: They understand. They're the ones that I see freaking out 183 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: are aged twenty five to forty five. Particularly, you know, 184 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: those are which have zero risk, zero risk. So they 185 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: just love this. They love the attention and love the 186 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 1: power off. You have to do this because I say so, 187 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: they're going to try to downplay this place. Why Biden 188 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: just said, oh, the pandemic's over, because first of all, 189 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: promises made, promises kept with the pandemic is going to 190 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: be something they try to say. By the way, do 191 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: you think this was planned or do you think he 192 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: just stepped all over himself and said this. I think 193 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: it's I think biden Ology. The analysis of Biden is 194 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: made effectively impossible to do with precision because it's tough 195 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: to know whether it's mostly he's stupid, which he is, 196 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: mostly nasty, which he is mostly lying, or it's a 197 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: function of his age in dementia. It's you can never 198 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 1: really tell which of those is the primary factor, I think. 199 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: So to your point about what he's saying in this speech, 200 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, man. I mean, there's plenty of reasons 201 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: why Joe Biden says crazy stuff that's untrue, that goes 202 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: off the rails. And I think obviously a lot of 203 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 1: people listening would say, well, buckets. I agree, it's all 204 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,079 Speaker 1: of those things. I'm just saying to put it on one. 205 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: You know, is it because he's a little bit out 206 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: of it today, is he sundowning? Or is it because 207 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: he's in a foul mood because he's a nasty guy. 208 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: But Clay, they're going to just bring it back to 209 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: why we have to remind everybody about They just fired 210 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: eight hundred and fift people from New York last week. 211 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: Some of them not a lot, but some of them 212 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: probably listen to this show. Not a lot of teachers 213 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: in the New York City public schools system listeners, but some. 214 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: You know, they just fired people, and they're gonna bring 215 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: some of this stuff back if they can get away 216 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: with it, They're gonna dial it up a little bit 217 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: in the winter. As soon as the midterms are over, 218 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: they will. And we know because we've been telling you 219 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: for a couple of years now. The numbers will likely 220 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: go up for COVID like they do for cold and 221 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: flu and have for generations in winter. So when everybody 222 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: goes inside and it's cold outside and you're not spending 223 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: as much time outdoors. Remember where they told everybody to 224 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: go indoors and not go outside, which is one of 225 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: the most ridiculous I just kind of just jumping one thing. 226 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: They actually made COVID worse. I want everyone to be 227 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: very clear on this. More people got COVID early who 228 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: were at risk because they made up these stupid ideas 229 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: that people thought protected them. Don't go outside, stay six 230 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: feet away. Let's every single person go into one house 231 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: and every single person don't get sunshine, get fatter, have 232 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: your immune system run down, become depressed. Oh but social 233 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: distancing and cloth masks will protect you. Not true. Yes, 234 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: all of it was a lie. And I gotta tell you. 235 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: If you own a business, chances are the past several 236 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: years have been tough. You need to win and this 237 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: might be it.

Second hour 254 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show gets going 255 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: right now, Thanks for being with us. The Friday big story, 256 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: of course, was the Martha's Vineyard migrant situation and they're 257 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: already gone. They removed, dare I say, deported from the 258 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: island and moved to Cape cod by the military. Now, 259 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: somehow that's fine. But offering them a free flight to 260 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: an idyllic, crime relatively crime free paradise of Martha's Vineyard 261 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: where the average home costs over a million dollars, that 262 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: was human smuggling, human traffic, aim and libs. They were 263 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: in a penny, you could tell because of how stupid 264 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: their criticisms of this were. Governor Santis making a lot 265 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: of headway here and pointing out that this gets them 266 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: mobilized much more in this Biden White House than the 267 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: five million illegals who have flooded the country while Biden 268 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: was president. When I heard that the president is scrambling 269 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: to get his cabinet together to try to address the 270 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: fact that you have governors who are helping to relocate 271 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: illegal aliens to sanctuary cities. Now, he didn't scramble to 272 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: get his cabinet together when we had millions of people 273 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: illegally pouring across the southern border. He didn't scramble to 274 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: get his cabinet together when you had fifty three migrants 275 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: die in some trailer in Texas because they were neglected 276 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: by the federal government. It's only when you have fifty 277 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: illegal aliens end up in a very wealthy, rich sanctuary 278 00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: enclave that he decides to scramble on this. I mean it. 279 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: It is a very interesting comparison, I think, I think 280 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: a very important one. That about fifty people die of 281 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: asphyxiation illegal migrants in a truck because of the massive 282 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: smuggling operations going on. Media talked about that for a 283 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: few hours, then moved on to something else. Fifty migrants 284 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: perfectly safe, healthy, fine, everything's fine, just given a free 285 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: flight to Martha's vineyard. And all of a sudden, the 286 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: Libs realize their hypocrisy is being exposed, although they don't 287 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: really care about hypocrisy. I always tell everybody this, and 288 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: there's a national emergency. The mayor of DC, I mean, 289 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: just so ever understands. The mayor of New York, the 290 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: mayor of DC, the mayor of Chicago have all complained 291 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: about the illegal migrants coming into their cities as a 292 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: result of the buses or flights paid for by other states. 293 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: Here is DC's Mayor, Muriel Bowser. We're not a board 294 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: of town we don't have an infrastructure to handle this 295 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: type of a level of immigration to our city. But 296 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: will will create a new normal here in our infrastructure 297 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 1: and have a humane welcome for people and an efficient 298 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: you know, service prohibision. But we don't have the ability 299 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: or not Texas, okay, kick click. First of all, this 300 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: idea that border towns have the ability, well, this is 301 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,400 Speaker 1: not about processing migrants when they first enter the country illegally. 302 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: That's a border patrol issue and an ice issue. This 303 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: is where do they go to live inside the United 304 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: States along the border. A lot of them stay there 305 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 1: for a period of time or stay close to the border. 306 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: There's no special reason McCallan, Texas doesn't have some special 307 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: plan in place. El Paso, Texas doesn't have some special 308 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: plan in place to deal with the flood of migrants. 309 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: That her analysis would make sense if suddenly a team 310 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: of Haitians was arriving on the Potomac River to enter 311 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: into the United States for the first time, right, that 312 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: would be analogous because suddenly you have to process all 313 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: of these ely goal immigrants and associated aspects with that. 314 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: It's not what's going on at all. What is going 315 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: on is it takes a pen prick of the people 316 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: illegally crossing the border. And as we are speaking to 317 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: you today, there will be eight thousand people who will 318 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: enter in illegally on average right now every single day 319 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: between now and when the election takes place in fifty days. 320 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: Probably will taper off some in the winter, as typically 321 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: happens as the weather changes, and then it typically kicks 322 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: up again in the spring, running into the summer all 323 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: over again. And as you pointed out, Buck, and we've 324 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: said on this show for some time, over five million 325 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: illegals we believe have entered into the country since Joe 326 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: Biden became president, including over two million in the last 327 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: year along the border. These numbers are out of control. 328 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: And the only way that the border gets talked about 329 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: in any way is if there are illegal immigrants being 330 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: shipped to why in DC, New York City, Chicago, and 331 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: now Martha's Vineyard. And I believe what should happen is 332 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 1: they should put these illegal immigrants on airplanes and fly 333 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: them into the wokest enclaves in the United States, the bluest, 334 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: the most left wing, and let people understand what is 335 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: occurring in Texas and Arizona. And what I would say 336 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 1: to you Buck, speaking of the election, Carry Lake is surging, 337 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: and I don't know if you saw this poll that 338 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: came out on She's now got I believe it was 339 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: a four point lead in the state of Arizona. Week 340 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: Casters is right on the edge with Mark right there 341 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: with Mark Kelly. And obviously we believe Greg Abbott's gonna 342 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: win comfortably. I think Dallas Morning News had him up 343 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 1: eight or nine points in Texas Overbados. Still need people 344 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 1: to vote in all those things, but there's a lot 345 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: of those border race elections in Texas and an Arizona 346 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 1: Buck that I think are going to get decided to 347 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: a large degree because of our failures at the border. 348 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: I think Blake Masters has a great chance, Carrie Lake's 349 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: gonna Abbot's gonna win. The Myra Floresque contingent down along 350 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: the border, I think has a very good chance to 351 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 1: win as well, just based on border security. And it's 352 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: it's amazing to see the way that this completely upended. 353 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: I mean this this through the the liab apparatus, the 354 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: Democrat Biden regime into a panic, and it's really just 355 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: because people see what's going on. You're not supposed to 356 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: know about the illegal flows into these communities, and so 357 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: when it becomes visible, when it is a because there's 358 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 1: there are millions of illegals in places like in the 359 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: in the total, places like New York and Los Angeles 360 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 1: and Chicago. I mean there are literally millions of illegal 361 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: aliens already living in those places. But when there is 362 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: an awareness of the daily influx of more and more 363 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: and more, and by the way, those numbers are over decades. 364 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: The Biden administration has done five million in two years. 365 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: It is the public awareness of what's happening that is 366 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: the political risk for Democrats. That's why they're freaking out 367 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: about this. And also the fact that turns out when 368 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: you have an area that the Democrats are used to 369 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: being not so diverse, very wealthy, and a place that 370 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: they go to get away from crime, Libs go to 371 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 1: get away from this. Nattucket, the Hampton's, the Vineyard, you know, Malibu, California, 372 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: the Delaware Shore by the way, for DC, the Maryland 373 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: and Delaware Shore is full of the DC elites, you know, 374 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: by the way, to your point, I think those places. 375 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,479 Speaker 1: Delaware is supposed to be next, but it needs to 376 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: be not just you know, not dropping them off in Wilmington. 377 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: There should be bus loads of illegal migrants dropped off 378 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: in in the fancy beach town where Biden has his home. 379 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: I mean there should be people rehobo bea. Yeah, they 380 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 1: should have people dropped there, so there's an awareness of this. 381 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: But I thought this is funny too, Clay that the 382 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: CNN headline, I'm sure you saw this this, I'm reading 383 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: the headline, they enriched US migrants forty four hour visit 384 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: leaves indelible mark on Martha's vineyard. They panic, they get 385 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: them out as soon as possible. They're like, oh my gosh, 386 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 1: we don't have the resources for this, and then they 387 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: start writing self k this was at CNN self congratulatory. 388 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: See how welcoming and great we are, and wow, what 389 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: an amazing impact they had on us for the one 390 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: day we let them live on our island lives. Their kryptonite, 391 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: i'm telling you, is mockery everybody. Hypocrisy, Yes, that's a 392 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: constant with them, but mockery of their lunacy is critical. 393 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: They hate when their intelligence is questioned. And let me 394 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: just hit you with this, Why the Martha's Vineyard. I 395 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 1: think crystallized for so many people out there. Left wingers 396 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: have been taking a free ride virtue signaling woke policies 397 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: without having to cash any checks predicated on what they 398 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: are endorsing. And let me explain what I mean that 399 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: defund the police overwhelmingly the province of woke white people 400 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 1: who do not have to live in communities that are besieged, 401 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: typically by crime. Open borders. Oh, you love the idea 402 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: of illegal immigrants and open borders and people being able 403 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: to go wherever they want until the consequences of open 404 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: borders come to where you are. Think about shutting down schools, 405 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: remote work. All of these policies that have been advocated 406 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: by woke white people are a disaster for average people 407 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: in America. Most people aren't fortunate enough to be able 408 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 1: to shift from going to an office to working from 409 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: home and not have their protect productivity impacted. Most people 410 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: do not have the luxury of being able to put 411 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: their kids in private school and hire expensive tutors while 412 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: lecturing all of us about the importance of shutting down 413 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: schools to keep kids safe. Same thing when it comes 414 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: to border security, same thing when it comes to crime. 415 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 1: Democrats are overwhelmingly the party of woke white people. Right now, 416 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: Woke white people drive almost every policy that Democrats are 417 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: putting into place. That's who I believe should be overwhelmingly 418 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 1: being attacked right now by Republicans. The least liked people 419 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: in America today are the woke white people who lecture 420 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: you on what jokes you can make, where your kids 421 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: can go to school, whether your kids have to wear masks, 422 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: and they do it while looking down there, knows that 423 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: you claiming that they are loaded with virtue. And to me, 424 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 1: what Ronda Santis did on the Martha's Vineyard trip was 425 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: puncture that woke cocoon that surrounds all these super wealthy 426 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: people who claim that they're better than all of us. 427 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: What are the I mean, I really want to ever 428 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: understand this, these migrants, the fifty Margarets and Martha's Vineyard 429 00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: and the stuff the Libs were saying last week because 430 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: all this is human traffic. And Gavin Newsom, we should 431 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: talk about this. He's saying he's straight up running for 432 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: president if Biden doesn't, And we need to play the 433 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: audio of Biden suddenly saying, yeah, hey, maybe I don't, 434 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: maybe I'm not gonna run. So we'll come back into that. 435 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsome, I dude, he is just endless ambition and shamelessness. 436 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: So you know, trust me, if he can get a 437 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: lane to run for presidents, he will absolutely do it. 438 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: But he's trying to pick a fight with Governor Ron 439 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: De Santis over this, saying there should be an investigation 440 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: to kidnapping. These migrants were already let free into the 441 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: United States, they were already processed. They were given a 442 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: free ride to Martha's Vineyard. People are saying that they 443 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: were induced to go there under false pretenses. Give me 444 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 1: a break. What are the false pretenses. It's gonna give 445 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: you a free flight to Martha's Vineyard? I mean, give 446 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: me a break. But also this notion that, and this 447 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: goes to what the DC mayor says, we don't have 448 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: the resources for this. What do they mean There's there's 449 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: plenty of that. They couldn't figure out fifty beds and 450 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: hot meals for fifty individual jewels for a few days 451 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: on Martha's Vineyard. It seems very obvious to people watching this. No, 452 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: there's something else at work here. They don't want their 453 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: idyllic island to be a place that has to deal 454 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: with the social services costs and also just the changing 455 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: of their little society on the vineyard that would occur 456 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,679 Speaker 1: if not just one migrant flight, but a lot of 457 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: migrant flight showed up there, no doubt, And that's exactly 458 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: why the hypocrisy is punctured there. And we're gonna continue 459 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: to talk about this. But Gavin Newsom, who is leading 460 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: the charge for the woke White Brigade, is effectively letting 461 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 1: it be known. I even think he's putting pressure on 462 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: Joe Biden not to run and that he's going to 463 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: take on Kamala Harris will tell you about that next. 464 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, if there's one thing you'll wish 465 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: you had when peanut butter hits the fan, obviously euphemism there. 466 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: It's an emergency food just like guns, gold and Ammo. 467 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: Emergency food is a prudent investment, no matter what. Something 468 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: as simple as a weather related disaster.

What is going to happen with inflation? 498 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: And do you believe we're already in a recession? And 499 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: what might twenty twenty three look like as we continue 500 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: to move forward? How bad is it? Could it get worse? 501 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: Do you think it's going to get better? Take us 502 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: into the economy as you see it. Well, I mean 503 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: this is kind of a tricky area right now. I 504 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: mean half of the market is saying we're gonna have 505 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: wicked inflation, and you know a lot of smart investors 506 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: are saying that dal's gonna you know, plummet another ten 507 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: thousand points, and then you see other people saying, yeah, 508 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: we'll get through this. Um. I will say this the Fed. 509 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: If you take the Fed at its words, right, which 510 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: is we have to get inflation down to the target 511 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: two percent, that means they're gonna raise interest rates for 512 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: the probably, I mean definitely, this week, right, but probably 513 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: the next meeting and the meeting after that. So we're 514 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: gonna have three rate increases in a row. And if 515 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: you take him at its word, and I mean your 516 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: own Powell, the Fed here, he's not gonna stop until 517 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: we get it under two percent. We already had two 518 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: quarters of negative GDP growth. Obviously, we still have decent employment, 519 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: so it's not it's not one of these sessions where 520 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: employments falling off the cliff. But you you got some 521 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: you got some issues. Um, if he raises three times, 522 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: you know, and I think you know you already see 523 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: it in tech. You hear it on Wall Street that 524 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: they're talking about laos at the big banks because deal 525 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: flows down. You know, you might say, okay, that's the banks, 526 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: deal flows down. What is some guy working in a 527 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: factory care about that? Well, if deal flows down, that 528 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: means big companies aren't refinancing, they're not expanding, they're cutting back, right, 529 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: So Wall Street processes those trades, so that that's a 530 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: sign that the economy is slowing. What do you think 531 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: about the housing market? By the way, Charlie, that too, 532 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: um Now, housing is is kind of a it's a 533 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: regional thing and you have to. I mean, if you 534 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: talk to people, they'll say, housing stock nationally is very low. 535 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: So you know, even with the higher mortgage rates, right, 536 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: they've they've sort of they've essentially tripled, we won't have 537 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: an issue. M that said, you got to look at 538 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: it where the hotspots were jarring the pandemic. Um. Look 539 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: at Charleston, South Carolina, Look at Ashton, North Carolina, look 540 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: at Nashville, look at these places. You know they there's 541 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: there's inventory there because they built a lot. So Um, 542 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: that could be an issue too. And as you know, 543 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people have their wealth ope in the 544 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: markets and in their housing. Uh. Once are good about 545 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: housing if you don't. But if you don't buy it 546 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: on on leverage and borrowing too much. Um, it's a 547 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: physical asset. You know, you get to keep it. Uh. 548 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: You can't really say that with a stock if if 549 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: you bought it at ten and it's down three you 550 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So um, but all this is 551 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: factoring in, and all this will play out in the 552 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:42,479 Speaker 1: next you will know in the next couple of months. Charles, 553 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: you said you were going to know in the next 554 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: couple of months. Do you have any confidence at confidence 555 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: at all in Biden's team of economic advisors. Buck and 556 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: I talk sometimes, and we're not claiming to be savants 557 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: when it comes to economic knowledge, but it feels as 558 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: if the Democrat Party has completely sort of sort of 559 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: eviscerated any understanding or argument in favor of business, making 560 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: it increasingly difficult to believe that the Biden administration has 561 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: the ability to get this thing back on the right track. 562 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: How would you assess his advisors? Well, you know, there's 563 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: two I mean, when you break it down, government has 564 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 1: two responses to the economy, right, it has fiscal policy 565 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: and monetary policy. Monetary policy is handled by the fit 566 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: that's the money supply. It tends to increase the money 567 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: supply when we're in a recession, decrease it when we 568 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: have massive inflation, and even decrease it when we have 569 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: massive inflation, even as um we could be in a 570 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: recession because it's it's it's having inflation. See. The problem 571 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: is inflation is such a wicked tax on the working 572 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: class that you know, country's full apart when when people 573 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: have to work three jobs just to you know, buy 574 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: the same hamburger that used to buy it with one 575 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: even if there's three jobs to be had, and that's 576 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 1: kind of it's not we're not quite there yet, but 577 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: that's a little bit what we're dealing with right now. Um, 578 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: So keep that in mind. The fiscal policy is different. 579 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: Fiscal is what comes out of the White House. And 580 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: the problem is that this the fiscal policy that we 581 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: have is so bizarre and so cockamaney. I mean, on 582 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: one hand, it feeds inflation through massive amounts of spending, 583 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: and on the other hand, it restricts, it attacks businesses 584 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: through massive amounts of regulation. So if you were if 585 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: you were to say, you know, there's there's a Biden 586 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: administration doing what needs to be done to get us 587 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: out of recession, I would say, no, we're speaking of 588 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: Charlie Gasparino, Fox News Business. Uh, and Charlie, I just 589 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: want to know what do you what do you think? 590 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: What are you looking for? If we see a headline 591 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: in the journal or over at Fox Business or or 592 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: anyone who's covering the markets and the economy more generally, 593 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 1: for the people listening to this, what's the oh it's 594 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: time to down the hatches indicator? Is it just a 595 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: month of really bad job losses? Is it the market 596 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 1: just getting getting crushed. I mean, it already feels like 597 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: lately that's come pretty close to happen in a couple 598 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: of times, although not as bad as it's been in 599 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: the past. So what are the what are the worry 600 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 1: indicators that you might see here? If you see I 601 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: think it's a there's a combination of things. If the 602 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: Fed comes out this week and says we're gonna hyper 603 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: interest rates, you know, one hundred basis points as opposed 604 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: to seventy five, you know that that would be something. 605 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to do that, but that 606 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: would be something because then they see something in the 607 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,439 Speaker 1: numbers that says this inflation is just not going away, 608 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: and they gotta if there's something much worse than what 609 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: we know, even though what we know is not great, right, 610 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: So that's one thing. The other thing is obviously employment 611 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: falling off, you know dramatically, uh, you know, and that 612 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: would be a problem. You know, job openings, you know, 613 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: decreasing and things like that. Then you then you know 614 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: people are preparing for a recession. You know, they see 615 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 1: the Titan credit, the Titan credit can and their businesses 616 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 1: are pairing back. So those are the two things I 617 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: would look at. I don't think the Fed's going to 618 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: one hundred base point. They're going to seventy five probably, 619 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 1: but still that's not great. Again, look at the employment numbers. 620 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,439 Speaker 1: That's they're going to be interesting, Charles. The FedEx number 621 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 1: seemed to have really shook the stock market because FedEx 622 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: sort of has its pulse on the overall national economic picture. 623 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw Fred Smith, the founder 624 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: of FedEx, basically came out and said, we're in a 625 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: recession now, right, whatever it's called. And certainly we know 626 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: with two declining quarters that technically that is a rough 627 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: estimation of a recession. What are the FedEx numbers tell 628 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: us about where the market is, where it's going, and 629 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 1: how nervous based on what the CEO Fred Smith said 630 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 1: about the economy, do you think people should be predicated 631 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: on that sort of knowledge? And I think I think 632 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,879 Speaker 1: we are heading for a steeper recession than we have now. 633 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 1: That's me, okay, It just this is the somewhat calm 634 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 1: before the storm. Again, if you think the FED is 635 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: going to raise rates twice, we have a two percent 636 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: inflation target and we're at eight point three and not 637 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: really going down. Well, then you know we're talking three 638 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: rate increases and they're gonna they're gonna slam the brakes 639 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: on the economy. I mean, think about where mortgage rights. 640 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you, Charlie, where do you think 641 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: mortgage rates could go? Well, there at six, now could 642 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: we see double digits? You could see ten? Wow, they 643 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: do three, three seventy five bases point increases. Then that 644 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: makes homes a whole lot more expensive for people to 645 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 1: find in now. I mean if you have cash, and 646 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: not only by the way for Buck's question there, Charles, 647 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: there's then also a lot of people that might be 648 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: interested in moving that say, I've got a two and 649 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: a half two and three quarter percent interest rate locked in, 650 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 1: there's no way I even if I think I need 651 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: a bigger house because I had a new baby, or 652 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: because we need to move to a better school district, 653 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a whole lot of people sitting down 654 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: literally doing the math on this and saying it's hard 655 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: to give up a two and a half two and 656 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: three quarter percent mortgage or eight to even if you 657 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: feel like you need to move to a bigger home, 658 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: because that bite even at six, you're getting if you're 659 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: talking about potential double digits. I mean that is monstrous 660 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 1: to so many people. I know, it really is. So 661 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: I think that's where we are with that. Yeah, I mean, 662 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 1: from from what I've seen it if basically, if you 663 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: were in the market based on the rating crease you've 664 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 1: already seen, if you could afford a half a million 665 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: dollar house before, now it's more like a house that's 666 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty k. If it was a two 667 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty K house, now it's more like one 668 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: twenty five. Yeah, that's that's how recessions start, you know, 669 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 1: just like that. And then you got so many people 670 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: who bought in at the peak. Right, if you bought 671 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 1: a year ago at the price, even though you might 672 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,439 Speaker 1: have a good mortgage rate, the numbers might start coming 673 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 1: back on your house, which is what happened in OA. 674 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 1: I one think you Charlie also, which is that you 675 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: know Biden, he talks this big game about how, oh 676 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,000 Speaker 1: you know Wall Street and the Republicans. Biden got more 677 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: money than anybody from Wall Street in history except for 678 00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 1: Barack Obama. Do you talk to these guys got sources 679 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: all over the street and people, it's really the financial 680 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 1: sector for everybody because no one really works. I mean, 681 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: very few people actually worked down on Wall Street anymore? 682 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: Um are do they have any buyer's remorse for their 683 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: for their love of Biden? In the last election, You 684 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: might have seen my interview with Larry Fink, who you 685 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: know runs black Rock, which has I mean there are 686 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: black Rock executives all over the White House. He's got 687 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: deep ties to the Democratic Party, and he came out 688 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: and criticized Biden and the spending. What he was saying 689 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: is that he's spending as Jerome Powell needs to raise rates, 690 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: So what he's doing is stoking inflation, and probably the 691 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: worst type of inflation, not exactly you know, increase in 692 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: supply side, but just handing out money for people to 693 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 1: spend at a time when Jerome Powell needs to decrease 694 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: the money supply essentially. So you know that's Larry Thinks 695 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: saying that. So, yeah, what happens if that just keeps going, right, 696 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: if we keep spending money, which we're doing unfortunately while 697 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: also trying to restrict spending, like what happens, it just 698 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 1: makes the FEDS jobs so much more. And that's why 699 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: people were talking about three rate increases. That's actually why 700 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 1: people are talking about one hundred basis points, because the 701 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:11,320 Speaker 1: Bide administration is working at odds, you know, engineering a 702 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: soft landing. And by the way, Jerome Powell's not you know, 703 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 1: it's complicit in this too. I mean, he kept printing money, money, 704 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: money for like, for way longer than we needed to. 705 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: We were coming out of the pandemic slowly. Surely the 706 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: vaccines kind of work. They didn't work, but you know, 707 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: we were getting getting our sea legs back and people 708 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,400 Speaker 1: were going back to work. We didn't need to, you know, 709 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: we didn't need monetary policy to match what the idiots 710 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: in Washington were doing on fiscal policy, you know, the spending. 711 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 1: Yet he kept doing it. So now he recognizes that 712 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: probably too much. He probably did it to get reappointed 713 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: by Biding, right, And now he has a job to 714 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 1: engineer a soft landing. That means make sure the economy 715 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 1: doesn't slow so much we go into a steep procession. 716 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is making that job a lot work. You 717 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: gotta tell us, Charlie, if the soft landing they're going 718 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 1: forward turns into the plane heading into the side of 719 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: the of of you know, the mountain and it's time 720 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: to start buying up land off the grid in belies. 721 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 1: You gotta let us know, all right, you uh, you know, 722 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: I still don't like buying in other countries. Yeah. One 723 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: thing about that important tip. I didn't know that interesting. 724 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: One thing that we have here is the rule of law. 725 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 1: Can you go to another country, you have currency risk, 726 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 1: you have legal risk. Uh. You know that's the one 727 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: thing about this. You know, we sit around and you know, 728 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of Joe Biden's economic policies, 729 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: but you know I'm not looking to leave. You know, 730 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 1: when I heard all those Democrats saying, oh, they want 731 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: to leave the country when Trump becomes president, was like 732 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 1: a you kidd, where you gonna go?

Yes, well, 770 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 1: thank you so much for having me on. This is 771 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: a very very important election. You know, I'm a nurse 772 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,240 Speaker 1: and my life changed when I walked into my husband's 773 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,919 Speaker 1: trauma care unit at Walter Reed Army Medical Center after 774 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: he had been blown up by a suicide car bomb 775 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 1: in Iraq. I resigned from my nursing job, took a 776 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,279 Speaker 1: one way flight out to Walter Read and you know 777 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: that began my fight. I had to stand up and 778 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: fight for my husband when he didn't have a voice, 779 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: he was in a coma. One thing was certain the 780 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: suicide bomber that detonated his car. The shrapnel from that 781 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: car obliterated both of his eyes, so my husband would 782 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 1: never ever see again. I took on the army. I 783 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 1: refused to sign his paperwork to retire him and transition 784 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 1: him into the DA. I believed in a better path, 785 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,400 Speaker 1: and I had this crazy idea, this wild idea that 786 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: perhaps a book blind officer could continue on active duty. 787 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: You know, the doctors looked at me like you're crazy, 788 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: missus smiley, like there's no way, but built coalition coalitions 789 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,319 Speaker 1: who believed in that vision as well. My husband went 790 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: on and became the first blind active duty officer to 791 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: ever serve our country. We served forever a decade with 792 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 1: him completely blind, and the nurse and me knew once 793 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: he was well, I went back and I made it right. 794 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: Still a lot of work to do, but I took 795 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: on the VA, took on big government. So I have 796 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 1: a track record of taking on big government and winning. 797 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what I will do when I win 798 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: from all of Washington State this November. Tiffany, it's buck, 799 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. What are you hoping to accomplish 800 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: if you do get to represent the state of Washington 801 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: in the Senate and what has been going on. I mean, 802 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: one thing we talk about a lot on this show 803 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: is I live in a blue state in New York. 804 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,439 Speaker 1: I grew up here, I was born and raised here, 805 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:29,919 Speaker 1: and there's been a major deterioration that has occurred here 806 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: over the last three years, particularly the last two years 807 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 1: of the Biden administration. What are you seeing in Washington, 808 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 1: Washington State that people need to know about and what 809 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 1: do you want to do to change it? Yes, I 810 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 1: mean it's Washington State is such a beautiful, amazing state. 811 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 1: We are just under represented, and it's clear Patty Marie 812 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 1: and Joe Biden's policies are just throwing our livelihoods here. 813 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: Just take crime, for example, the highest crime that we've 814 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 1: had in thirty years. Murray went on the Senate floor 815 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: of June of twenty twenty called for funds to be 816 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 1: diverted away from our police force. And then she went 817 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 1: into hiding. And what I'm hearing all over Washington States, 818 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: people are like, we haven't seen her. She hasn't been 819 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,839 Speaker 1: around until she came out attacking you, Tiffany. You know, 820 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 1: two months prior to the primary in June, spending millions 821 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 1: painting me as an extremist and trying to say that 822 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm a threat to democracy a family that has served 823 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: in sacrifice for their country. I maybe it doesn't make 824 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: any sense where we have real problems on the grounds. 825 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 1: You know what we need to do, and I know 826 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 1: we can get to work right away on just the 827 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: basics of law and order. Right If our federal government 828 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 1: does anything, it's protection of the American people. So we 829 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:44,399 Speaker 1: need to prevent Title forty two from being lifted until 830 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,720 Speaker 1: we have real border security. I've actually been to the border. 831 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 1: I don't know that Patty Murray ever has. Granted, I 832 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: was eleven years old when she was first elected, so 833 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how they kept records back then, But 834 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 1: as of recent I don't think she's ever been to 835 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 1: the border. I was down there. I sought with my 836 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 1: own eyes buck. There were people crossing the river. We 837 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: had cartel members yelling at us. I took a boat 838 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 1: right down the Rio grand I saw the wrist bands 839 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,720 Speaker 1: with the different colors, you know, depending on what cartel 840 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 1: these these immigrants are paying money to. UM. I saw 841 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: the boats that they fill full of drugs, and it's 842 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,760 Speaker 1: too easy. You just push it right across into stash 843 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 1: houses that are in the United States of America. So 844 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: we have real issues. We need to secure the border, 845 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: we need to hold repeat offenders accountable. And something that 846 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: I can do at the federal level is also allow 847 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: law enforcement agencies to use federal grant dollars and offer 848 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars in hiring and retention bonuses. We need 849 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,920 Speaker 1: good officers, we need them now, especially in Washington States. 850 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: And it's not just you know, crimes, not just having 851 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 1: a public safety effect, having a massive economic effect here 852 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: on our small businesses. We've seen Starbucks shutter doors here 853 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: in Washington State. Amazon moved to their offices. Um smaller 854 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 1: you know, mom and pop shots shops are moving out 855 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:03,280 Speaker 1: because they're there's no accountability. Patty murray soft on crime 856 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 1: agenda is destroying our beautiful stay. I will stand up 857 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 1: in fight and be a voice for all of Washington. 858 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: We're talking to Teffany Smiley. A poll came out for 859 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: people out there nationwide, certainly in Washington as well. At 860 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,320 Speaker 1: the very beginning of this month from the Trafalgar Group 861 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 1: had Patty Murray at forty nine, you at forty six. 862 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: I think, as you mentioned, she's starting to get a 863 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 1: little bit nervous. She's been attacking you more aggressively. That's 864 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: a three point margin right now. We've got a monster 865 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: audience listening to us right now in Seattle, also in Spokane, Washington, 866 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 1: our affiliate by the way, in Spokane KQU and T 867 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 1: appreciate everybody out there who's listening. You're gonna have one 868 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: debate against against the Murray right. I believe his schedule 869 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,440 Speaker 1: because I don't think she'll debate you anymore. You can 870 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: tell us about that. But also why can I talk 871 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 1: a lot about Seattle and how beautiful of a city 872 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 1: it is, yes, and how Democrat policies have really attacked 873 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 1: the vibrancy and vitality of what should be a jewel 874 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: of the Pacific Northwest. What are you hearing from people 875 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,760 Speaker 1: in the Seattle area who may have been traditional Democrats 876 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: about why they're listening to you? And what do you 877 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: expect to see in that debate? Do you think she's 878 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 1: going to still try and run and hide from her record. Yeah, 879 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 1: you know you are so right on Seattle. It's a 880 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: shame of what has happened. Patty Murray is destroying our 881 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,719 Speaker 1: city and our state. And you know what I hear 882 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,359 Speaker 1: is you know, the infrastructure bill. People are talking about 883 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: that that's a big deal here in Washington State, and 884 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: you know, suburban moms are saying, that's great that we 885 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 1: got the infrastructure bill, so I, you know, could go 886 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 1: through the tunnel and know that I'll be safe. But 887 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 1: they say, what's the point If I don't even feel 888 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: safe getting out of my car in Seattle or letting 889 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:49,080 Speaker 1: my kids run around, what's the point? Like I said, 890 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: the bare minimum the federal government could do for us 891 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 1: is protect our citizens law and order, and Patty Murray 892 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: soft on crime. She's non existent. She doesn't even talk 893 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,319 Speaker 1: about these issues. And we haven't even gone into the 894 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: cost of living in the rising grocery prices in Washington 895 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: State either. So this is what's on the ballot this November. 896 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: These aren't Democrat or Republican issues. These are American issues. 897 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: These are livelihood issues. And when we talk about debates 898 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: she has Patty Murray's drug raphy, it's almost like she's 899 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 1: annoyed that I Am forcing her to be accountable to 900 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 1: the voters. You know, she's done them for thirty years. 901 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 1: She hasn't really had a real race, and that's why 902 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,760 Speaker 1: I know that we can win because I've been listening 903 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 1: to voters in all thirty nine counties. I have been 904 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 1: all over Washington State and back again, and we will 905 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 1: continue to do that all the way through November. She 906 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 1: has drug her feet on the debates. She finally agreed 907 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 1: to one debate, but I want to be clear that 908 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,800 Speaker 1: that is after ballot's drop, which I think is an 909 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 1: insult to the voters here in Washington State. It's actually 910 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 1: a pattern too in Pennsylvania. Fetterman wants people start voting 911 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,479 Speaker 1: before they actually hear them on the debate. State Claire, 912 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,439 Speaker 1: you got something though, Yeah, No, I was just gonna 913 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,640 Speaker 1: say you mentioned suburban moms. There's a lot of swing 914 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 1: voters out there. I've got a fourteen year old, and 915 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,360 Speaker 1: twelve year old and eight year old. I believe you 916 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 1: have multiple kids yourself. Yes, what are you hearing from 917 00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 1: moms and what do you want for your own kids? 918 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,560 Speaker 1: You talked about the work that you did for your husband. 919 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 1: What are you seeing for your kids in their schools? 920 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:25,520 Speaker 1: And hearing from Washington parents. You know we are winning 921 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:29,719 Speaker 1: the messaging war here. We with Patty Murray, we are 922 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 1: the campaign for the parents. Most recently, you know, Patty 923 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,319 Speaker 1: Murray doubled down. She was asked, given what we know 924 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,880 Speaker 1: now with the plummeting test scores, the childhood anxiety and 925 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 1: self harm that's on the rise, you know, do you 926 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 1: have any regrets about how you handled the pandemic? And 927 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 1: she doubled down and pretty much said no, that they 928 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: followed this science and they did what was right. Well, 929 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 1: you're talking about a state here in Washington where our 930 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:57,879 Speaker 1: kids were shuttered out of school for over a year 931 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,400 Speaker 1: and a half, my three boys included. I saw the effects. 932 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:04,760 Speaker 1: I've talked to the parents about this. This is wrong, 933 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 1: and Patty Murray supported it and doubled down on it. 934 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: I you know, so I have an agenda for education 935 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:16,240 Speaker 1: reform here in Washington State. We need to expand school choice, 936 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 1: promote curriculum transparency, and we also need to create an 937 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: expand K through twelve STEM education programs. College is not 938 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: for everyone, you know, I mentioned the infrastructure bill talking 939 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,919 Speaker 1: to contractors all over Washington State. Their apprentice programs are empty. 940 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 1: And you know, Patty Murray sh ran as the mom 941 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: in tennis shoes. She was going to fight for our 942 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 1: education and fight for our kids. She's done nothing to 943 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,719 Speaker 1: that court. I mean, look at where we're at now. 944 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 1: So that's that's how I know will win because these 945 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,400 Speaker 1: parents who who have watched their kids suffer here in 946 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 1: Washington State, they know that there has to be leadership. 947 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 1: This isn't about political This is about being a leader, 948 00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 1: someone who will go do what's right and fight for 949 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 1: their kids. And we're on the right side of the 950 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,919 Speaker 1: message for it. Patty Murray, you know again doubles down 951 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 1: with her DC. She's doing what's right for DC, She's 952 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 1: doing what's right for Joe Biden. Yeah, it sounds like 953 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: she's focused on the other Washington tiffany where.
