He was arrested and arraigned today in court. 3 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 1: Why did the media get this one so wrong? And 4 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: what does it tell us about hate crimes that there 5 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: are now those who are saying Smollett might just get 6 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: off with probation at thatt Amore Coming up on the 7 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show where 8 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 1: the mission where mission is to decode what really matters 9 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America. You're a great 10 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: American again. The buck Sexton Show begins, analysts, he's a 11 00:00:54,160 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: great guy. Now they are looking for two suspect who 12 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: are apparently wearing make America Great Again hats. We don't 13 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: know what happened to Jesse, but what we do know 14 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: is that racism is alive and well in this country. 15 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: There is real evidence of people who have done these 16 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: crimes who cite that the President has inspired. Then Senator 17 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: Corey Booker said, the vicious attack when actor Jesse was 18 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: an attempt at modern day lynching a Hollywood star who's 19 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: black and gay and now the victim of a heinish crime, 20 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: not of that attack at a star of a TV show, Empire. 21 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: Jesse Smollett from the hit show Empire was attacked and 22 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: beaten early this morning in Chicago, and police say it 23 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: could be a hate crime. I'm so shaken by the story. 24 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: I know he walked himself to the hospital. Do we 25 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: know how he is now? Connect the dots. This is 26 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: what happens if you are in a position of power 27 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: and you hate people, and this is America. In twenty nineteen, 28 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: he opened up about what he's learned and the bigger 29 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: message he wants the world to hear. How can you 30 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: doubt that? How do you not believe that it's the truth. 31 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: And then it became a thing of like, oh, it's 32 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: not necessarily that you don't believe that this is the truth. 33 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: You don't even want to see the truth. Welcome to 34 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show. Sorry, we had to start out 35 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: there with just lies and falsehoods and more lies and more, 36 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: all of it false, all of that stuff that we 37 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: were being told there by the media, some of the 38 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: biggest platforms in the country, some of the most self 39 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: loving journals around, big big fans of spreading this hoax 40 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: around there. That's what they did. Man, it is interesting 41 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: to be right here, I am. Let's just do a 42 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: quick count of where we are team versus where the 43 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: mainstream media is Cavanaugh, Covington, Smallett. Can they point to 44 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: any conservative hoaxes in the last year. I just wanted 45 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: to where's the big conservative hoax? Or we were on 46 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: this show. I was like, well this happened, and no, 47 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: it didn't happen. My bad ah was never never brought up. 48 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: Didn't happen? Did it? Yet? Here we are, there's so 49 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: much going on here. Oh, we're gonna have some fun 50 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: on this story. So smallt was. Smallett was arrested taking 51 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: down a court Today, he's out on a hundred thousand 52 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: dollars bail. And you had a member of the Chicago PD, 53 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: I believe it was Police chief came Eddie Johnson came 54 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: out today and he lets Smollett have it play eleven 55 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: attempted to gain attention by sending a false letter that 56 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: relied on racial, homophobic, and political language. When that didn't work, 57 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: it's let pay thirty five hundred dollars to stage this 58 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: attack and drag Chicago's reputation through the mud in the process. 59 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: And why this stunt was orchestrated by Smolette because he 60 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: was dissatisfied with his salary, so he concocted a story 61 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: about being attacked to put the national spotlight on Chicago 62 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: for something that is both egregious and untrue. Is simply shameful. 63 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: I'm also concerned about what this means moving forward to 64 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: hate crimes. Of my concern is that hate crimes will 65 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: now publicly be met with a level of skepticism that 66 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: previously didn't happen. Now, let's just look at some of 67 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: the details before we go too far to the analysis here. 68 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: Let's do some of the details. Smolett. I guess that 69 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: is how we say his name, I've been Smolett Smolet. 70 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: Perhaps if we wouldn't get kind of a French vibe 71 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: there messieurs Smolet. But no, it's it's Smolette. He has 72 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: engaged in, according to police, now two to hate crime hoaxes. 73 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: One was sending a letter to himself with threatening, threatening 74 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: stuff and racial slurs, and then this even bigger hoax 75 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: involving a three thousand dollars plus payment to two brothers 76 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: who were helping him to stage in attack. Some details 77 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: that I think you should know about, though. One is 78 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: that Smolette paid the brothers with a check. That's right, 79 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: the thirty five hundred dollars was paid via check. Now, 80 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: I'm not some arch criminal, Okay, I'm not somebody that 81 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: you know. I don't even like getting a speeding ticket. 82 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: I stay inside the law. But I'm telling you this much. 83 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: If I were trying to engage in some illegal activity 84 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: of this kind to stage some kind of an elaborate hoax, 85 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: I think I'd pay cash. I just think that's a 86 00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: better move than to leave an obvious financial she'll trail 87 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: to your co conspirators. I'm just putting that out there. 88 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: Probably a good move. Also, since since we're gonna break down, 89 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, this is the dumbest hate crime hoax that 90 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: I that I've heard of or seen in years. I mean, 91 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: there's some very dumb ones out there, but this one is. Wow. 92 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: Smolette is not exactly an evil genius. So he paid 93 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,559 Speaker 1: these kys via check. I wonder how he's gonna explain 94 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: that one to the cops I saw today, As lawyers say, 95 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: he's looking forward to clearing his name. Yeah, how are 96 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: you gonna do that? Exactly? But the two guys that 97 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: he the two brothers that he paid to help him 98 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: in this attack, which is also I would note, an enormous, 99 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: an enormous mistake. The osund Row brothers, Olah and Abel, 100 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: they went into a hardware store and bought masks, red hats, 101 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: and rope for the quote noose and they did this 102 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: on video. I've also heard that they had the magazines 103 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: that they used to cut the letters out of to 104 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: create there. But I'm sure there's DNA in it, by 105 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: the way, I mean, if they're showing up on video 106 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: buying this stuff, they probably paid with credit card too. 107 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I just these guys. This is the most bumbling, 108 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: buffoonish hoax hate crime imaginable. And yet look how long 109 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: it took for the media to finally turn this around. 110 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: Look how long before they were willing to say, you 111 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: know what, maybe we made some kind of a mistake here, 112 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: maybe there's maybe there's an issue. And now they're saying, 113 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: well that the Democrats who were initially jumping in are saying, ah, 114 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: we might have made we might have made a little 115 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: mistake here. We might have Kamala Harris Kirston Jilla Brand, 116 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: who I really enjoyed Tucker's monologue last not on his show, 117 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: on Kirston Jill brand Worth going back and seeing if 118 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: you haven't worre Mache's just a nasty phony, just an 119 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: out and out phony. But Democrats don't mind that kind 120 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: of stuff. But Jilla brand and Harris and Booker, they've 121 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: all come out and sure enough after saying that this 122 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: was terrible and oh it's Trump's fault and all this stuff, 123 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 1: now I'm like, yeah, you know, maybe you know, maybe 124 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 1: we should have waited a little bit, Maybe we should 125 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: wait for the facts. Now, Oh, wait for the facts now. Okay, okay, 126 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: that's interesting. Let's give you some more facts. Since they 127 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: want to wait for facts, here's the police chief, Eddie Johnson, 128 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: talking about more of the stuff that they have. Play eleven. Oh, 129 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Play ten. This case, in particular involved hours 130 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: of video evidence, which, when combined with old fashioned police work, 131 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: uncovered the truth. These detectives deserve all the credit in 132 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: the world for carefully analyzing the leads and the evidence 133 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: for weeks before coming to their conclusion. I'd also like 134 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: to thank the FBI for their helping this investigation. I 135 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: only hope that the truth about what happened receives the 136 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: same amount of attention that the Hopes did. I'll continue 137 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: to pray for its troubled young man who resorted to 138 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: both drastic and illegal tactics to gain attention. We know 139 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: that it won't receive the same amount of attention though. 140 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: We know that the multi billion dollars news media apparatus 141 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: in this country is going to find a way to quickly, 142 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: as quickly as possible, move right past this story because 143 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: their audience doesn't want to hear about this. Their audience 144 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: want to be told, hey, crimes are rising, Hey crimes 145 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: are rising, And I say, wow, where on what time frame? 146 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: What kind of crimes attributable to whom? When you actually 147 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: look at the numbers, what you find out, by the way, 148 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: is that the single single group that suffers religious group 149 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: that suffers the greatest amount of hate crimes, for example, 150 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: is anti submiticate crimes. But the left is not that 151 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: they don't turn those into national news stories. Generally, this 152 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: is a national news story, a black gay actor attacked 153 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 1: by Trump's supporters. It couldn't have been more perfect. It's 154 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: it's like this was concocted, this whole story by a 155 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: couple of you know, undergrad film majors covered with hashtag 156 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: resistance tattoos in some you know coffee shop in Los Angeles. 157 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 1: I mean, this should not have ever even nobody should 158 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: have ever thought that this was a good plan and 159 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: this made any sense, and that Jesse Smollett, who or 160 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: Smolette who is an actor, couldn't have come up with 161 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: a more convincing story. I don't know, I haven't seen 162 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: him in the show Empire, but you can't be a 163 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: very good actor. I'm just guessing the cops thought that 164 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: this might have been a hoax from the beginning. They 165 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. Play 166 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: thirteen here, John Well, to be perfectly honest, from the 167 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: very beginning, we had some questions about it, but as 168 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: I said, we gave mister Smolett the benefit of the 169 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: doubt all the way up until that forty seventh hour 170 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: of the forty eight hours, we could hold those two 171 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: individuals because we just didn't have the total package to 172 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: support that it was a hoax. So when you heard 173 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 1: me coming out saying we are treating him like a victim, 174 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: that was the truth, because at that time that's what 175 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: he was speaking of. Victims. You know who Smilette victimized here, 176 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: not just the millions of Trump supporters across the country 177 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: who knew that their reputations collectively were being tarnished. You 178 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: know that this was always meant to be a judgment 179 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: on all of us, those who vote for Trump, who 180 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: support Trump, who believe in his promise to make America 181 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: great again. We were the bad guys. That's what was 182 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: at the heart of this. But the people that really 183 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: suffered are the people of Chicago, with the over a 184 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: dozen law enforcement officers who were assigned to this. When 185 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: you have a city that has a terrible violence problem 186 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: and a very high unsolved murder rate to bring those 187 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: kinds of police resources, I've seen estimates that this might 188 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: have even cost in terms of police man hours, hundreds 189 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: of thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of dollars spent 190 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: so that this clown Smolette could turn himself into some 191 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:09,479 Speaker 1: kind of cause celeb turn himself into not just a celebrity, 192 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: but that rarefied and oh so desirable on the left, 193 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: victimized celebrity, special category, social justice approved celebrity. Oh what 194 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: could be more wonderful than that? But he was upset. 195 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: He was upset with his salary on the show and 196 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: thought if he got more attention, he would make more money. 197 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: So Smolette is a narcissist, an idiot, and a bratt 198 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: Think of how many people rushed to his aid to 199 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: believe him, to run interference for him. Think of how 200 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: this became a national news story. None of the kids 201 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: who have been shot in chicag I go in the 202 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: last thirty or sixty days, none of them have turned 203 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: into national news stories. Lives lost, family shattered. That that 204 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: doesn't get the media's attention. This a guy who I 205 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: also read today, created his own wound. I mean that 206 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: little scratch on his face. If two guys poured bleach 207 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: on you and put a noose around your neck and 208 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: manage to do that, and we're trying to hurt you, 209 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: I think you'd have more than a tiny little scratch 210 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: on your cheek. I mean it looked like he cut 211 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: himself shaving. Whose terrible attack. You know it was all 212 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: a lie. It was all a lie. And I know 213 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: that there are other things in the country we should 214 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: focus on, and we will shortly, But today is when 215 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: the whole thing finally came crashing down. So you'll have 216 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: to excuse me if I have a moment here to 217 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: just say, isn't it good to be right? Team? You 218 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: listen to this show. I don't have a I don't 219 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: have a hundred reporters. I don't have some huge newsroom 220 00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: at my beck and call and everything else. I just 221 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: read and think and analyze and bring all of the 222 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: knowledge and all the assistance that I can from all 223 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: of you who listen into that process. And somehow we know. 224 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: We knew this was garbage. That's why we kept doing 225 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: the Jessie Small and updates as we went along. Year up, 226 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: it looks pretty bad. So we were right and they 227 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: were wrong. The fake news can't figure it out, but 228 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: we can. We should do a little victory dance, and 229 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: you know what today is victory dance Day. We'll be 230 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: right back. Can we be honest? But to certain groups 231 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: of people, even if they were skeptical there, like they said, 232 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: I hope this is not true. Black folks, gay folks, 233 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: people are like, oh my god, I hope you know why. 234 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: And you know why black folks, gay folks say that 235 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: because they are real victims of well, because there are 236 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: real victims of homophobia and of racism, but also because 237 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: unfortunately we tend to all be painted with the same 238 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: brush when one person and does wrong. And that's why 239 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: we always say that when something goes wrong, is we 240 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: hope the person is not black, We hope the person 241 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: is not gay. Yeah, I don't agree with a lot 242 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: of people that are out there saying that this, this 243 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: hurts the victims of real hate crimes, because real hate 244 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: crimes are crimes, right, great, No one, no one hears 245 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: a story about you know, some some bad person somewhere 246 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: who are you know, No one hears a story about 247 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: some bad person who attacks you know, a woman because 248 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: she's you know, wearing a her job or because you know, 249 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: and says, well, that can't be true. And if it 250 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: is true, everyone wants the person punished. But those are 251 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: those are real. And look, there are a lot of 252 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: hoaxes out there too that involve things like that. But 253 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, though those are real things. I don't. I 254 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: don't agree with this, This completely implausible story that Jesse Smollett, 255 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, fool the media into into believing somehow now 256 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: undermines everybody. No, you know, if someone says something terrible 257 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: and racist and punches somebody in the face outside of 258 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: a restaurant somewhere. My first reaction is I'm like, oh, 259 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: that's terrible. You know, I wonder did the police get them? 260 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: What happened? When someone says that, you know they had 261 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: two Maga hot wearing noose carrying you know, this is 262 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: Maga Country yelling guys in Chicago at two o'clock in 263 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: the morning. You know, No, it just wasn't incredible. It 264 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: was incredible. Don Lemons also he said that he's been texting, 265 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: you know, he's over at CNN. I used to dude, 266 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: Don show a fair amountain then I wised up. It's 267 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 1: texting frequently with Smolette. Doesn't that impact the coverage? I 268 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: mean I always say if someone's a friend, not because 269 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: I'm like the person's my friend, but because I want 270 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,199 Speaker 1: you to know that if there's someone I have to 271 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: talk about here on the show that I have any 272 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: kind of personal relationship with, I think you should at 273 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 1: least know that. And as you know, I also don't 274 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: trash my friends. I have a rule. I don't trash 275 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: friends on air, but or even particularly harshly criticize them. 276 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: That said, why is it okay for Don Lemon to 277 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: have a personal relationship with this guy and do stories 278 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: on him night after night on the show. I'm just wondering, well, 279 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: where are the journal is John? Is Don Lemon a journalist? 280 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: Is any mean Don Lemon? Is he a journalist? Does 281 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: CNN have a Can they give us an official ruling 282 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: on that? I mean, he's obviously not, but I just 283 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 1: want to know if CNN is delusional enough to think 284 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: that he is. Eight four four nine hundred two eight 285 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: two five. Let's open up those lines, team, tell much 286 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: to think about this small Lett situation. Eight four four 287 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: nine hundred two eight two five eight four four nine 288 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: hundred buck light him up. I know, Jesse, I love him. 289 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: We have to understand this is happening for a reason. 290 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: Why all of a sudden do we have people unable 291 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: to study well, black, unable to mo alan while black, 292 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: unable to have a picnic while black, and being attacked. 293 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: It's coming from the President of the United States, Dog Whistlin. 294 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: Every day he's separating and dividing, and he is basically 295 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: embolding those folks. This is the problem with the approach 296 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: that the Democrat politicians and the media take to these 297 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: situations where they just say, well, we're gonna go all 298 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: in on what we want it to be, what we 299 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: want to be true, and then if we're proven to 300 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: be completely and utterly wrong, which they have been, yeah, 301 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 1: maybe we'll walk it back a little bit, or we'll 302 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: just move on to something else. And the media will say, Okay, 303 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: maybe we got that wrong, but you know, no big deal. 304 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: The problem is that there is lasting damage that is 305 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 1: created from the propagation of the lie. There you had 306 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 1: Maxiine Waters, very well known member of Congress. I believe 307 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 1: she's on the now. She might be running the finance 308 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: I ever forget, not not the oversight Committe, it's some 309 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 1: kind of financial committee. I forget what a producer, Mike, 310 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: we let me know what it is. She's a She's 311 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: on a pretty important committee in Congress now because the 312 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 1: Democrats obviously control the House. But she just went through 313 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: this whole thing of essentially telling any any person listening, 314 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: and I think it would resonate, particularly with Black Americans, 315 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: that you know, you can't quote study while black, have 316 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: a picnic while black. All these she says all these things, 317 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: and it's reckless for her to say these things because 318 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: it's just not true. What she's saying is not true, 319 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: and Jessie the the lie that he told. Even if 320 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,959 Speaker 1: it were true, it wouldn't prove all these things that 321 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: she says. But people will hear Maxi and Waters using 322 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: this incident in order to create this this storyline about 323 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: how America is still so racist. I mean, the left 324 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 1: is so invested in making Americans believe but we are 325 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: a uniquely and deeply and irredeemably racist country that there's 326 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: a desperation to find racism all the time. I would 327 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: just note that if we were so racist, it wouldn't 328 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: be so hard to find real instances of national news 329 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: level racism. They would not have to make it up. 330 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: And that's why I read do You Last No? Earlier 331 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: this week that string. She's the House Financial Services She's 332 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. Maxie Waters, Yeah, 333 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: that was the one. So I read you that string 334 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: of hoaxes because I don't want any of you to think, 335 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,959 Speaker 1: because you'll hear it in the media. Oh hey, crimes 336 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: are on the rise and hoaxes are rare. M Actually 337 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: not true. Why would there ever be a hoax of 338 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: this kind? It's so strange, how many hoax burglaries. Do 339 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: you know of how many hoax you know? Go down 340 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: the list where where do the hoaxes occur? Usually where 341 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: there's some political incentive, which then to among the dumbest 342 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: questions of all that will be asked now and you 343 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: will see people asking this question. I guarantee it. Why 344 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: would he do this? Why would JUSSI do this? He 345 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: has he has nothing to gain. Where have you heard 346 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: this before? By the way, he has nothing. Oh, just 347 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:31,959 Speaker 1: like how Christine blasi Ford, another fabricator, had nothing to gain. Hm, 348 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: she had lots to gain. Actually, as we know, Smollett 349 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: clearly thought he had a lot to gain from this, 350 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: and for the first few weeks he did national news 351 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: story sympathetic anchors, He sat down with Robin Roberts at ABC, 352 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: and you know became he became a trending topic on 353 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: social media. Everybody was you know, he had he had 354 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: future president or current presidential candidates jumping forward to come 355 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: to Jesse's defense. Everybody knows that this can also result 356 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: not just in the elevation of your profile, but the 357 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: acceleration of your career and the enrichment of your bank accounts. 358 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 1: Look at Colin Kaepernick. Colin Kaepernick was past his prime 359 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback. The people that I know who know football, 360 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: that I trust, I've talked about this many times before, 361 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: and they're like, the guy, he just wasn't that good. 362 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: And he was doing something with his taking of the 363 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: knee and his pig socks for cops. He was doing 364 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: stuff that alienated the audience. And guess what, No one 365 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 1: has a civil right to be a professional football player. 366 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: No one has a guarantee that they get to be 367 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: a multi millionaire athlete. It is entertainment. If your movies stink, 368 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: you don't get to be in more movies. At least 369 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: you shouldn't be If people don't want to watch you 370 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: on a football field, doesn't matter how good you are, 371 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: you're a liability. And Kaepernick wasn't that good. Pebel didn't 372 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: want him. Oh but then he turned into a social 373 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: justice hero and now he's a major Nike figure and 374 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: there's all these campaigns out there for millions and millions 375 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: more dollars because of essentially his agitation. No policy has 376 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 1: changed because of Kaepernick. Then nothing, There's been no benefit 377 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 1: of what Kaepernick has done. Oh, he started a conversation 378 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: on race we have conversations on race all the time. 379 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that was one of the one of the 380 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: most insane things of many things that Attorney General Eric 381 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: Holder back in the Obama day said was, you know, 382 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: we're cowards when it comes to race. We don't have 383 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: talks about race. The left wants to talk about race 384 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: pretty much all day, all the time. If you turn 385 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: on MSNBC or CNN. Other than the Russia collusion delusion, 386 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: their favorite thing to talk about is race number one. 387 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: And I was a contributor at CNN. I knows I 388 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: come to you, I come to you with with with 389 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: stories of abuse and gas lighting and all kinds of 390 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 1: stuff from being over there. But I remember when the 391 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter movement based on Mike Brown and all 392 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: that that was really a that was the biggest news 393 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: story in the country. They were running stories on it 394 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: all the time, and they couldn't get enough of it 395 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 1: because they thought their audience couldn't get enough of it. Meanwhile, 396 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: the fact that Mike Brown attacked a cop and got 397 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: shot after he you know, robbed a store a few 398 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: minutes before. I mean, the guy, the guys who the 399 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: guy is a thug is apparently know how to say that. 400 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: That's not they don't like even though thugs come from 401 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: the Thugy cult in India, occult based on strangulation that 402 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: some estimates go as high as killed in the high 403 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of people. It was a religious cult. 404 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: It's actually the Thugy cult in India is the loosely 405 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: the basis for the evil cult in Indiana Jones and 406 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: the Temple of Doom Boom, Did your mind just explode? 407 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: But the Thugie cult was nineteenth century and the British 408 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: authorities were the ones who rooted it out. But that's 409 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 1: where the term thug comes from. And we're not supposed 410 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: to say thug though, So you could say Mike Brown 411 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: was a hooligan? Is that better a ruffian? You know, 412 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: a vandal? You know, I don't know. You have to 413 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: sort of pick your your term. That won't all of 414 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 1: a sudden be oh, you can't use that term. He 415 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: was treated like a martyr of some kind of movement 416 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: and CNN would run these stories night after night after night. 417 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: It was it was they were complicit in racial Mike 418 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: producer Mike comes up with a good word for him, 419 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: Well done, Mike, a criminal Mike Brown a criminal who 420 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 1: got shot. Thank you, Mike, well played any time. Yeah. 421 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: So they they held this up as oh, you know, this, 422 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: this movement and it's going to change police relations. This 423 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: was when you had the first black president in office, 424 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: and yet still we're told, so the country is so racist, 425 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: it's so terrible. And I would just say, as I 426 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: point to these hoaxes, if the country's so racist, why 427 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: must they elevate a hoax in this way? Why must 428 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: the left do this? If the country were so racist 429 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: and police were so racist in particular, why is the 430 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: center of the biggest political movement about police violence an 431 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: individual who was lawfully shot by an officer defending himself. 432 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 1: That that's that's the that's the person you're going to 433 00:27:54,400 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: build a movement around. And again, the agitation here is 434 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 1: clear that the purposes of this is not to create 435 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: some kind of harmony. It's to keep people divided. It's 436 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: to keep people angry with each other, and it's to 437 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: feed them these narratives of victimology and suffering and hatred 438 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: that are very appealing to people. Why is Jose Smallett 439 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 1: as a victim appealing well, because then then he gets 440 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 1: to get all the sympathy from the media, and he 441 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: gets to tell his story. And you know, why would 442 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,959 Speaker 1: he lie because it benefits him to lie. Why do 443 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: people like to hear these stories of victimhood because they 444 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: will translate it into their own perceived victimhood. Oh, this 445 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: has been unfair to me, that has been unfairming. Here's 446 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: the truth is. Life is not fair, never has been, 447 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: never will be. Everybody, at different times and in different ways, 448 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: has been on the wrong side of an unjust situation. 449 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: But we also, all of us, myself included, make bad choices, 450 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: sometimes get a little lazy, don't do the right thing, 451 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: don't do what we know we should do. Sometimes you 452 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: do enough of that and your life trajectory starts to change. 453 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes you you start to see, yeah, we all make mistakes, right, 454 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: but you make enough mistakes and you've got more of 455 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: a of a macro level problem on your hands. Right. 456 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: You know this is this is It's like the difference 457 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: between binging on you know, a dozen donuts and eating 458 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 1: a dozen donuts every night before you go to sleep 459 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,479 Speaker 1: for about six months. The latter is going to actually 460 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: have an impact in your life. It's not going to 461 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: be very healthy for you, right, you make bad decisions. 462 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: Don't donuts? Sounds so good? Right now, I'm really hungry. 463 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: You make bad decisions and you have to deal with 464 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: those decisions. But what if, what if I could tell 465 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: you that there's a story, a story that I could 466 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: promote to all of you listening that would make you 467 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: think that, No, it's not that you've made any bad decisions, 468 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,959 Speaker 1: or that you would have made better decisions. It's not 469 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: your own lack of discipline, or or or just bad 470 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: luck or any of these. No, no no, it's none of that. 471 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: There are bad people out there, Trump supporters. There are 472 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: bad people out there who are the cause of the 473 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: disappointments in your life. There are bad people out there, 474 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: the other here, the patriarchy, white male Christians, Trump supporters, 475 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: MAGA hat wearers, and they are the reason for your 476 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: disappointments in life. It's not in your hands, it is 477 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: it is those other people that are unfortunately individuals like 478 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: to hear this. It frees them from the uncomfortable every 479 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: and I mean this for whoever you are. It's always better. 480 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: You know, whether it's you think you're being victimized by 481 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, your boss at the office, or you know 482 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: your your your social life is not what you think 483 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: it should be because of it's it's just like envy, right. 484 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: The politics of envy are so powerful because we all 485 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: see people that are spending more money on a yacht 486 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: than we'll make in a lifetime and say, is that 487 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: guy really so much smarter than me? Well, when you 488 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: look at identity politics, and you add into those identity 489 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:19,479 Speaker 1: politics the victimology narrative, and you look at and this 490 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: is at the heart of intersectionality. All these different groups 491 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: are pressing each other. It's not that any group should 492 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: sit down and think to itself. First of all, do 493 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: we want to even be judged as a group? Aren't 494 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: we just individuals? Aren't we all just human beings with goals, aspirations, hopes, loves, desires. 495 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: Do we have to be always thought of as in 496 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: this group? But even if you're going to think about 497 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: it as a group, isn't it more comforting? Isn't it 498 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: easier to be told that whatever's going wrong and wrong 499 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: in your life, it's because you're part of this group, 500 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: and it's because there are other people that are holding 501 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: you down. It's a seductive narrative and it's at the 502 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: heart of the current obsession with victimhood in this country, 503 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: and also understand this victimhood is a means of not 504 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: just achieving for oneself a kind of immunity and an excuse, 505 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: but also claiming victim's status is a way of seizing 506 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: power from those that you think should not have it, 507 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: especially people who seek to be ethical in their doings. 508 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: Nobody wants to be victimizing somebody else. Guilt is a 509 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: very powerful tool in our politics as well. All of 510 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: this factors in to this mess that is the Rushi, 511 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: the Jussie Smollett hoax. All right, team, we've got a 512 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: lot more so. There's an IRS analyst that was the 513 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: latest deep state clown on the scene. We'll talk about 514 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: what he did. I've got some mccave thoughts for you. 515 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,479 Speaker 1: He's a bad guy. Knows rise there and and so 516 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: so much more. Show. Oh, and I hate crime against 517 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: a conservative that you'll hear about here. In fact, we'll 518 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 1: bring you up to speed with the latest on it 519 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: that you probably won't hear anywhere else. Happened in UC Berkeley. 520 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: Somebody got really badly beat up because he's a conservative. 521 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: Have you seen that on CNN tonight? I don't think so, 522 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: but don't be watching CNN. We'll be right back Kenny 523 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 1: and Boston, my brother from Boston. What's up, Kenny, Hey 524 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: Buck A long time no talk. It's great. You make 525 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: up a good point here with the him being stupid, 526 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: but I'm kind of really this is really bothering me 527 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: because I can't think he could be that stupid. Now, 528 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: he wanted to be on camera, You wanted this thing 529 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: to be on camera, but he chose two black dudes 530 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: and he calls them white dudes and report wouldn't that 531 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: have been seen on the camera? Why is he It's 532 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: almost like he wanted to be caught where he's deliberately 533 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: being sloppy and um because even now he's still denying 534 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: and vowing to fight these charges and exonerate his name. 535 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 1: And then also what about that manager or agent that 536 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 1: he was on the phone with. I don't hear anything 537 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: good good point about the manager or agent. Was he 538 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: in on it or was it just he got pulled 539 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: into the hoax? Unknowingly right, he might have gotten a 540 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: call from him where he did through this whole thing, 541 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: but you know who really knows. But I would say 542 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: this to you, Kenny, to your theory, which which I 543 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: think is is well thought out. What if, though, what 544 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 1: if Jesse's Smallett is just really, really dumb? Just just 545 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: leave leave that open as a possibility, leave that opener. 546 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: What if he is in fact? Because you're right, I mean, 547 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: it's so stupid that it's hard to believe he could 548 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: be that stupid. But what if he is, It's possible. 549 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 1: And as to the pronunciation of his name, we always 550 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 1: talk about the pronunciation of the last me, but what 551 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: about the first name. It's spelled with the You shouldn't 552 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,439 Speaker 1: he be called juicy? You know, I was always thinking, 553 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: you know not. I'll see it's a juicy right anyway. Yeah, 554 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: I don't know that joke. That joke kills on the 555 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 1: South Side. Thanks for calling, Kenny, could to talk to you, man? Uh, 556 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: could talk to you? Oh man, it's already next hour time. 557 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: So the deep State, it's a thing. What have they 558 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: been up too lately? Well, we have somebody who gotten 559 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: quite a bit of trouble or could be in quite 560 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: a bit of trouble based on his desire to take 561 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: down Michael Cohen, Trump's lawyer, with confidential government information leaked 562 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: to the press. What does this tell us about things 563 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 1: and also what's the latest on the Mullaprobe team. Strap 564 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: in an hour two is gonna rock it. He has 565 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: to make a decision. Is he going to be the 566 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 1: people's lawyer or is he going to be the president's lawyer. Clearly, 567 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: this president regards the attorney general as one of his minions. 568 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: He has no respect for the rule of law, in fact, 569 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 1: utter contempt for judges and the judicial process. And he 570 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:11,359 Speaker 1: has denounced relentlessly and unstintingly the FBI and other law 571 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:16,720 Speaker 1: enforcement absolutely unpressman it shattering all the norms. William Barr 572 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: is a professional, at least he should be, and he's 573 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: going to have to stand up and speak out for 574 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice and the rule of law, and 575 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,399 Speaker 1: that will make his ride a pretty wild one. Oh, 576 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 1: I'm sure denang Dick is really gonna sway Bar one 577 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,959 Speaker 1: way or the other with his usual slimy antics there 578 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: the people. Will he be the people's lawyer or one 579 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 1: of Trump's minions. Look, Barr is a guy who has 580 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,240 Speaker 1: done this before. Okay, he's been to this rodeo before. 581 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,919 Speaker 1: He was well respected then, he is well respected now. 582 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 1: He obviously can do the job. And that's why even 583 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: the lunatics in the Senate on the Democrat side could 584 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 1: not come up with a real rationale to try and 585 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: stop him. So he's now the Attorney General, and thankfully, 586 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 1: it looks like we are heading into the end of 587 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: the Muller nightmare. Although it's, as I've said, not going 588 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: to result in an end to investigations of Trump. It's 589 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: not like they're going to just say, Okay, you know, well, 590 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna move on to other stuff now. Nope, They're 591 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: gonna keep drilling down and drilling down because when they 592 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: can't win the argument, they figure they can win just 593 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: through harassment, which is the point here, just through harassment. 594 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: So we'll see if the Special Council ends next week. 595 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 1: I've been telling you that for a while. It looks 596 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 1: likely a lot of people have reported on it, and 597 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: it would make sense. But in the meantime, got some 598 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: other updates for you. Roger Stone. I have to tell you, 599 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: I kind of like Roger, you know, every time I've 600 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: talked to him, interviewed him. I like Roger. I like 601 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: Carter Page too. Carter Page are really really nice, friendly, 602 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: unpretentious dude, and Roger Stone look He's a character for sure, 603 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,919 Speaker 1: and I bet if you get on the wrong side 604 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: of him, he's not very pleasant. But I kind of 605 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: like Roger Stone. Oh I'm a pundit. I'm allowed to 606 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: like and dislike people. I don't have to pretend to 607 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: be neutral. And it's pretty amazing the career that he 608 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 1: has had in politics, stretching back for many, many decades. Well, anyway, 609 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: Roger is whereas a political operative. At least Roger is 610 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: not able to speak publicly anymore about his case that 611 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: just came out today. Federal Judge Amy Berman restricted Stone's 612 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 1: ability to speak publicly about his case because she says 613 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: Stone posted and then removed a photo of the judge 614 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 1: on Instagram that had crosshairs. Now, Stone said it was 615 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 1: a Celtic cross but had crosshairs behind her head. So 616 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: he gave a formal apology, or rather, his lawyers wrote 617 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: up a formal apology for him, and I guess we're 618 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,360 Speaker 1: moving past the matter now. But Stone is no longer 619 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: so I'm glad we got an interview with him when 620 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: we could over at Rising. I should have had him 621 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: on radio. I didn't even think about that. But Stone 622 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: is no longer going to be able to tell the 623 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 1: public what he thinks about the trial he faces. I'm 624 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,839 Speaker 1: gonna tell you this, and I spoke to a Democrat 625 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: lawyer recently off the record about the like he thinks 626 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,439 Speaker 1: that Stone. He agrees with me because I said, I've 627 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: read the stuff. I think if Stone fights this, he 628 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: won't beat all the charges, but he will beat some 629 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: of them. The witness tampering charge is bull. It's a 630 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: bull charge. He can beat that. But the ways, the 631 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 1: way the federal prosecution works is if even if he 632 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 1: beats that charge, but he goes to trial and other 633 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: charges and they get I mean, he's going to prison 634 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: for years in years, So is he really going to 635 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,959 Speaker 1: see Is he going to see this all the way through? 636 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: Is he willing to see this all the way through? Well, 637 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: we'll have to see. But I do think he'll beat you, 638 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: mark my words, if this goes, If this goes all 639 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: the way, I think he'll win on the witness tampering charges, 640 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: which will just show you, even though it means that 641 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: Roger will probably go to prison on the lying under 642 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 1: oath part of this, it'll show you that the Special 643 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 1: Castle was looking to just crush anybody around Trump and 644 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: that even when they had other charges that they could 645 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: have made, that they were trying to do the count 646 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,439 Speaker 1: of endless counts. They were trying to stack the deck 647 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: against him. Then one other thing, that's that's in the 648 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: Muller deep state anti Trump investigation world. That it's a 649 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: little bit of a rough transition there, but hey, you 650 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: know it's live radio. So federal prosecutors have charged an 651 00:40:56,239 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: analyst with the Internal Revenue Service for illegue disclosing confidential 652 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:06,760 Speaker 1: reports about Michael Cohen's bank records. This was to show 653 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: that Cohen was trying to profit from his access to 654 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: the Trump White House. Now you might say, buck, who 655 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 1: really cares about this guy John Fridy, IRS analyst, Which 656 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: you know, Hey, I'm in Delaware as an IRS analyst. 657 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: Why are we talking about this guy? Well, because yet 658 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,280 Speaker 1: again we have a federal bureaucrat, another one of these 659 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: government employees who was willing, was willing to throw his 660 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 1: career and perhaps his freedom away just to get a 661 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: little pad on the head from some journos at the 662 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: Washington Post and the New Yorker. And assuming this is true, again, 663 00:41:55,560 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: assuming that this is true, you know, that's that's what 664 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: I think we all need to keep in mind here. 665 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:07,879 Speaker 1: It's possible that's not true, but it's probably true. Why 666 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: is it that you didn't have this? I speak to 667 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: you often about the mentality in the federal government that 668 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: is statist in its inclinations and therefore favors Democrats and 669 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: favors the system in general. So with all of that, 670 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: why is it that we expect that there'll be these 671 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: kinds of leaks against Trump? More deep staters that are 672 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 1: deciding to take a an opportunity to just put something 673 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: out there in the news to take down Trump. Look 674 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 1: at that that woman who what was gosh, she had 675 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: to vary. Her name was like Victory Champion or something, right, 676 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: what was her name? Reality Winner? I think it was 677 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: is that was that her name? And look, my name 678 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: is Buck Sexton, I know, but Reality Winners quite a name. 679 00:42:57,840 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: I think she didn't. She get five years in federal 680 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: prison for leaking the classified information because she thought that 681 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: it proved Russia collusion or something. I mean, people are 682 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: hysterical inside the government, and they will abuse. These hysterical 683 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:17,359 Speaker 1: leftists inside the government will abuse their sensitive and classified 684 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: access illegally as long as it hurts Trump or someone 685 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: around Trump. You just did not have this during the 686 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: Obama years. Nobody was risking their freedom to try to 687 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: damage Obama in the news cycle for a day or two, 688 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: and nobody in the federal government was doing that. They 689 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: just weren't. And of course Obama was horrible on leakers, 690 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: as we know. He was the worst abuser of the 691 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 1: Espionage Act in in American history and the most aggressive 692 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: president in dealing with the in going after the press 693 00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: probably since FDR and Woodrow Wilson, so going on a 694 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: hundred years. But the media, you know, they loved Obama. 695 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: He could do no wrong. So they weren't particularly they 696 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: were they were strongly worded letter that's not very nice Obama, 697 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: but they didn't do anything serious. They were they certainly 698 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: weren't opposing the administration based on that. But this guy 699 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: who is now charged with leaking the tax tax information 700 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 1: about about Michael Cohen, You're you're going to see more 701 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: of this. You We should all expect, I fully expect 702 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: that someone is going to leak Trump's tax returns at 703 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: some point. It's just that they're waiting to see if 704 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 1: the process, if now the Democrat Congress can get it. 705 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 1: But if if they are stymied in this. If they're 706 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: not able to leak Trump's tax returns, two things will happen. 707 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: I think I'm making a prediction. I don't know. Somebody 708 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: will just decide from within the IRS, from within the government, 709 00:44:53,400 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: to violate their ethical and legal obligation to get Trump's 710 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 1: tax returns out there. And what we will see is 711 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 1: a total nothing burger. It's gonna make the Mulla Report 712 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: when it comes out look like you know, the Godfather series. 713 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just gonna be so boring. There's nothing 714 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: in Trump's taxes that is worth anyone's time. I assure you. 715 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 1: I think he doesn't want to give it out to 716 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 1: the public right now, just because he doesn't want to, 717 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: because they keep telling him he has to, and that's 718 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 1: his Trump's way. But you're I think somebody is gonna 719 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,240 Speaker 1: leak from within the IRS. Someone's gonna leak Trump's tax returns, 720 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: that's my and the press is gonna say, oh, look 721 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,320 Speaker 1: at this, we just happen to have the tax returns. 722 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 1: People are willing to risk prison to embarrass this president, 723 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,280 Speaker 1: and think about that, not to expose wrongdoing, to embarrass 724 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: this president or anyone around him. That's how Trump's derangement 725 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: syndrome has infected the federal bureaucracy. We'll be right back. 726 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 1: You might be wondering who is getting yelled at in 727 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: this way and where are they're getting yelled at in 728 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 1: that way? You know what neo Nazi was marching through 729 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 1: a public square somewhere and people started understanding, Oh, it 730 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 1: wasn't a neo Nazi. It was a conservative intellectual of 731 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,360 Speaker 1: Indian parentage and an immigrant to this country and a 732 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: Dartmouth alum who was at Dartmouth College. Oh, Dartmouth students, 733 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 1: it should be a shamby of yourself. I mean, these 734 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 1: college kids are there's such idiots. You know, the conservatives 735 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 1: don't do the idiotic stuff. They just don't. And the 736 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 1: numbers don't support this idea that everybody's liberal when they're 737 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,399 Speaker 1: like twenty every No, it's not true. It's just that 738 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: there is a greater cultural acceptance among leftists to act 739 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: like maniacs because they view the other side as immoral. 740 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: They emotionalize all of these topics. They don't think that 741 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,719 Speaker 1: there is a good faith argument to be had with 742 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 1: the other side. You know that that's what's going on here. 743 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 1: That's what's really happening. They just refuse to engage with 744 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:21,240 Speaker 1: the other side's ideas, and that denish Jasuza is getting 745 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,760 Speaker 1: heckled at his own school. I mean, you know, I can't. 746 00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,840 Speaker 1: I can't get into this too much detail. But my 747 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 1: own college used to like to invite me to speak 748 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,919 Speaker 1: Amherst haven't since I've become a conservative in the public eye. 749 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,959 Speaker 1: Nothing crickets, no interest in having me come to speak. 750 00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: I was invited at least three times, maybe four times 751 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 1: when I was in the CIA, come tell us about 752 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: foreign policy book, and I did. I was happy too, 753 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 1: at least once or twice. Now though my own school, 754 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 1: my own alma mater, ashamed of my conservatism, no doubt, 755 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: which is amazing because you think about the campus and 756 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: there must be a healthy percentage of students who, even 757 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: if they won't tell anybody, are conservative. But they don't 758 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 1: get to hear their views reflected back to them, or 759 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 1: they don't even and for the liberal students, there's always 760 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 1: a part of that feels kind of bad. I'm so 761 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: much better at making liberal arguments than liberals are making 762 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 1: conservative arguments. They don't even know, they're not even exposed 763 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,799 Speaker 1: to it. The one good thing that our team has 764 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 1: going for us, which is nice, is that we have 765 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 1: to be able and to be a conservative on a 766 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 1: campus these days, or to be a conservative in media, 767 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 1: in academia, in law, in entertainment. You go down the line. 768 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 1: If you're going to be conservative in any of those areas, 769 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 1: you better be able to handle yourself and know the 770 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:46,280 Speaker 1: issues and be able to make the argument, because otherwise 771 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: they're going to chew you up and spit you out. 772 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 1: Whereas liberals look at AOC, look at Okazy Cortez get 773 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,760 Speaker 1: you get to go through life and ignoramus with everyone 774 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: patting you on the head telling you how smart you 775 00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: are when you're an idiot. Well, you don't know anything, 776 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: but everybody around you likes the things that you say 777 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: that you've learned to say, that you parrot from hearing 778 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,839 Speaker 1: other people say, most of whom, also, by the way, 779 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 1: don't know anything. And it just becomes this big echo 780 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:14,240 Speaker 1: chamber of Oh, that's great. Whose streets are streets? Let's 781 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 1: fix climate change? Social justice now, yeah, all that stuff. 782 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: You don't have to even know anything. Oh, it's just 783 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 1: these things that people say, Oh, you know, the dark 784 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,279 Speaker 1: money in our politics, and what are we gonna do 785 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 1: about Citizens United. I'm always amazed at how people in 786 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,760 Speaker 1: the media, never mind college kids, they'll bring up Citizens 787 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: United and they don't know anything about it. I'll say 788 00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: to them, So you agree with Citizens United, You agree 789 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 1: with the idea that a book because this is what 790 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 1: the government's position. This is what the government's position, the 791 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:52,280 Speaker 1: Obama administration's position was at the time. A book should 792 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 1: be able to be banned, A book should be able 793 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 1: to be banned in a sixty or nine any day 794 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 1: window or whatever it was of an election, that that 795 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 1: doesn't infringe on the First Amendment. You think that that's 796 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: because that was the that was the government's position on that. No, 797 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: that's not a good idea. Buck, oh okay, but a 798 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 1: movie should be able to be banned. But buck corporate 799 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,959 Speaker 1: money from overseas, that's all. They don't know what they're 800 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 1: talking about. They say things about big money in politics 801 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 1: and say, okay, so yeah, you know, the libertarian Koch 802 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 1: Brothers give money to conservative causes, and there's a few 803 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: others out there that are very wealthy who support conservatism. 804 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: Why is that so strange? You know, there's sorrows, there's 805 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 1: Tom Steyer. There's you know, all kinds of billionaires who 806 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 1: come out and and support left wing causes. So what 807 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: is this idea? The left will say things like we 808 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: need to take money out of politics, and then you'll say, well, 809 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 1: what about all the money you get from X, Y 810 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 1: and Z sources? What about the money you get from unions? 811 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: From the union, Uh, that that doesn't count. That's not 812 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,799 Speaker 1: bad money, that's good money. Oh okay, I'm glad we've 813 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 1: established that. So a really interesting chart. It's actually what 814 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: got me thinking about all this. And it's from some 815 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: kind of a study group I don't know. Unfortunately it's 816 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,359 Speaker 1: cut off here. We've got shared with me today though, 817 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,359 Speaker 1: and it's that forty three percent. Sorry, Voters Study Group 818 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. I obviously have to give you the source 819 00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 1: otherwise I'm just making up numbers. Voter Study Group twenty eighteen. 820 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: And it said that it did a did a big 821 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:35,800 Speaker 1: poll and says that forty three percent of Democrats versus 822 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,760 Speaker 1: seventy percent of Republicans think that people should be allowed 823 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 1: to express unpopular opinions in public, you know, like Dnish 824 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 1: Dasus at a college campus, even those that are deeply offensive. 825 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:53,720 Speaker 1: A similar proportion of Democrats, by the way, openly support 826 00:51:53,840 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: speech restrictions, so getting close to half of Democrats or sorry, 827 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: forty percent of Democrats think that there should be speech restrictions, 828 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: and only forty three percent of Democrats think that you 829 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: should be able to express unpopular opinions in public. These 830 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:19,960 Speaker 1: people are authoritarians. They because they haven't been exposed to 831 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 1: those who disagree with them, because they just they slam 832 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:27,320 Speaker 1: on Fox News, they say, the Wall Street journalists, you know, garbage, 833 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 1: and it's all but the rich plutocrats, and you know, 834 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: every conservative website is just conspiracy theories. Because they create 835 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 1: this false narrative for themselves. They never have to challenge 836 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 1: any of their assumptions. They never have to really know anything, 837 00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: which I would think would eventually start to feel kind 838 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: of hollow, right, I mean, to just surround yourself with 839 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 1: people who always agree with you. I mean, I work 840 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:55,920 Speaker 1: with Libs at the Hill, liberals because they're my colleagues. 841 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 1: I work with liberals at the Hill. I have my 842 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 1: whole life lived in the bluest of blue parts of 843 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:08,399 Speaker 1: the country Massachusetts, New York, Washington, d C. So I've 844 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 1: had to deal with liberals all along. I know many 845 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 1: of you have had the same situation. Even if you haven't, 846 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 1: you had to deal with it through the culture. You've 847 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 1: had your assumptions challenge, You've seen Christianity being dumped on. 848 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 1: You've seen Republicans and Trump and being treated terribly people 849 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 1: that are pro life. The media thinks you're some kind 850 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 1: of troglodyte. If your pro life, you know you've dealt 851 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 1: with all of this. Liberals don't have the intellectual resilience 852 00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:40,040 Speaker 1: and honestly, the intellectual dexterity and fortitude to handle the 853 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: ideas of the other side, not the same numbers that 854 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:47,279 Speaker 1: Republicans do. So we can take some comfort in that. 855 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 1: I guess that's a good thing, and I do kind 856 00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 1: of wish in a sense that it would change. I 857 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,319 Speaker 1: wish Democrats would just get with the program a little 858 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:57,239 Speaker 1: bit here, but I Am not going to hold my 859 00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:04,320 Speaker 1: breath on that one. So this video goes viral, the 860 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 1: mob attacks, and you would expect that the mainstream media 861 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:16,000 Speaker 1: would be responsible enough to pause, recognize their dealing with 862 00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 1: a student, investigate and make sure that they have the 863 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:26,360 Speaker 1: facts accurate, that the story that they tell is accurate. 864 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 1: But they didn't pause when it came to Nicholas because 865 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 1: they wanted to rush out, and they wanted to jump 866 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 1: into the mob. Give the mob a megaphone so that 867 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:42,240 Speaker 1: they could attack this boy because he was white, was Catholic, 868 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:45,399 Speaker 1: and he was wearing to make America great again. Cap 869 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:47,839 Speaker 1: think about what this young boy is having to deal 870 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 1: with at age sixteen, when the entire world saw him 871 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,279 Speaker 1: the way the media portrayed him as literally the face 872 00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 1: of evil. It is inexcusable, reprehensible conduct by the media, 873 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 1: and Washington Post led the way. Amen. Great stuff from 874 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 1: the attorney for Nicholas Salman, who is going after the 875 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: Washington Post, and I hope he gets a big judgment 876 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:16,760 Speaker 1: against them. Few reasons why. First of all, Washington Post 877 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:21,279 Speaker 1: is a dumpster fire of liberalism. But start we can 878 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 1: put that aside for the moment. How will this ever 879 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 1: change unless there's accountability. You know, you'll notice this is 880 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 1: kind of a recurring theme right now. There must be 881 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 1: accountability for libs, for social justice warriors, for oh I 882 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: want to be a victim people, and for super aggressive 883 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,479 Speaker 1: left wing maniacs. There must be consequences when they break 884 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 1: the law, when they slander people, when they destroy people, 885 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 1: when they create a social media or real life in 886 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 1: person mob to go after people. We can't let this 887 00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:01,959 Speaker 1: stuff go. There is a an obleegation on us to 888 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 1: enforce some norms of decency, some norms of honor and 889 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 1: integrity in our society. And I'm sorry that libs just 890 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 1: throw all that stuff away and don't really care about it. 891 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's whatever gives them the advantage in the moment, 892 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 1: whatever the political advantage is. But we are not going 893 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,320 Speaker 1: to just sit idly by and allow this stuff to happen. 894 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 1: All right, We're not going to hand our country over 895 00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,400 Speaker 1: to a bunch of left wing activists who think that 896 00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 1: they can destroy high school kids to make some kind 897 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:41,160 Speaker 1: of political statement. It was disgusting, it was disgraceful, and 898 00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 1: just like what we saw with the Kavanaugh hearing, a 899 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,280 Speaker 1: lot of people who were paying attention to what happened 900 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 1: with Covington Catholic, a lot of them recognized that the 901 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: left wing mob is not just something that comes after 902 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:59,759 Speaker 1: people like me or you know, the people at the 903 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: time of the conservative media ecosystem at Fox or you know, 904 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:11,560 Speaker 1: It's not just people like us. It's anybody. If you 905 00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:15,120 Speaker 1: find yourself in a circumstance where the left can capitalize 906 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 1: off the destruction, the utter destruction of your reputation, your career, 907 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 1: your livelihood. They'll go for it. Then the social media mob, 908 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 1: let's it rip. And a lot of these journalists, what 909 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 1: you see is that they think that they can just 910 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 1: sort of do journalists had on, journalists had off. Oh 911 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,240 Speaker 1: I'm publishing in the Washington Post. Oh, I'm just tweeting 912 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 1: stuff out on Twitter. Sorry, doesn't work that way. Anything 913 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:46,320 Speaker 1: that you publish under your own name, anything you're right 914 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 1: under your own name. When you're a public person, a journalist, 915 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 1: somebody who is in the public eye, you must be 916 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 1: held responsible for. And the Washington Post was responsible for 917 00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: a smear campaign a bunch of against a bunch of 918 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 1: high school kids. You know, the same media, and you 919 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 1: know this is just it enrages me. The same media 920 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:11,320 Speaker 1: that complains about how, oh it's Trump has said, we're 921 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 1: fake news and Trump is so mean to us, and 922 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: why is Trump lay He's what he's doing is so dangerous. 923 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 1: That same media apparatus doesn't expect that, or rather isn't 924 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: willing to afford a bunch of high school kids not 925 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:29,120 Speaker 1: just a benefit of the doubt, but basic journalistic standards indecencies. 926 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 1: So I hope that Sandman and his attorney, his attorneys 927 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 1: are able to just flip the Washington Post upside down 928 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:40,920 Speaker 1: and just empty out their pockets. I really do. I 929 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:45,439 Speaker 1: really do. Um there's there's more, by the way, because 930 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 1: I think there's there's more lawsuits according to the Lord, 931 00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:51,040 Speaker 1: that are going to be filed. I even know some 932 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 1: of the people that are going to get sued, And 933 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:58,320 Speaker 1: I understand, you know, there there has to be consequences 934 00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 1: to this stuff. You can't just go out there. You know, 935 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 1: why didn't I jump on that? I saw this story, 936 00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:06,720 Speaker 1: I didn't jump on this bandwagon. Didn't seem right to me. 937 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 1: Something was up, not all the facts, too obvious that 938 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:16,040 Speaker 1: the media had constructed this narrative for their own purposes. 939 00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,400 Speaker 1: I didn't fall Isn't it interesting? You know, you listen 940 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 1: to conservative media. If you're listening to this show, you 941 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 1: listen to a conservative who's got a syndicated radio show 942 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 1: obviously across the country. But did I get Covington Catholic wrong? No? 943 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 1: I did not. Did I get Jesse Smollett wrong? No? 944 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,480 Speaker 1: I did not. Did I get the BuzzFeed debacle right 945 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:44,080 Speaker 1: before Covington Catholic wrong. Mmm, didn't buy that one either. 946 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 1: Did I get Kavinall wrong? No? And I'm not pretending 947 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,720 Speaker 1: like I'm the only one. A lot of my fellow 948 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 1: conservatives in the media saw these things for what they 949 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 1: were as well. Not all of them were as vocal 950 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: as I was. But why do I keep being right? 951 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:00,520 Speaker 1: And the Washington Post with its you know, hundreds of 952 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 1: millions of dollars of assets, and the New York Times 953 01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:06,760 Speaker 1: was it with its thousand plus writers and editors and 954 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,840 Speaker 1: everything else, and C and N with its you know, 955 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:13,080 Speaker 1: it's gold plated toilet seats. I mean, you know, why 956 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 1: can I figure this stuff out? But they can't? Does 957 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 1: that ever? And when I say I, why is it 958 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 1: that you can figure this stuff out? Too? And they can't? 959 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:26,000 Speaker 1: You knew? If you didn't know, you wouldn't be listening 960 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,200 Speaker 1: to the show because what I said about Smaller would 961 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,720 Speaker 1: be so offensive, right, what I was saying about Cavana 962 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 1: will be oh, you know, no, you know, And that's 963 01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 1: why you listen to me. But isn't it isn't it 964 01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 1: amazing that when you line up these these inre and 965 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 1: don't even get me started on the Mueller probe and 966 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 1: lack of collusion. I mean, obviously a lot of US 967 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:48,840 Speaker 1: conservatives know that that's total bullcrap. But why is it 968 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 1: that they're allowed to keep being wrong on these issues 969 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 1: and yet their judgment, in fact, their judgment is supposed 970 01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:59,200 Speaker 1: to exceed mine and yours. They are the smart people 971 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:01,800 Speaker 1: who know all the things, with all the editors and 972 01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 1: the fancy you know this, that the other thing in 973 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: their offices, but they keep being wrong and they do 974 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 1: real damage to normal people. There are hundreds of lawsuits 975 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 1: that are likely be filed Playlip five, certainly hundreds. The 976 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:23,920 Speaker 1: good news is is that we have two and a 977 01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:27,919 Speaker 1: half years to identify and file lawsuits against the wrongdoers. 978 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 1: And we got a lot of work to do because 979 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:35,560 Speaker 1: the social media and mainstream mob of bullies was extremely 980 01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:38,920 Speaker 1: large in number, and they were very vocal, and the 981 01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 1: mainstream media, like the Washington Post gave them a megaphone 982 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:47,640 Speaker 1: to go out and to shout to the world that 983 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:51,800 Speaker 1: this young boy had instigated this event which he did not, 984 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: had engaged in behavior swarming around mister Phillips which he 985 01:01:56,480 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 1: did not, had blocked mister phillips ability to leave the scene, 986 01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 1: which he did not. He was a child. He was 987 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 1: he was accosted by adults, accosted by adults, adults who 988 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 1: I would note were acting horribly. And if you go 989 01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:21,280 Speaker 1: back and you read that media coverage, there was no 990 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 1: effort to be honest about this. The New York Times 991 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:28,360 Speaker 1: did a profile of the black Israelites, had referred to 992 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 1: them as street preachers or something. I mean, it was 993 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:36,439 Speaker 1: a puff piece on a bunch of adults who say 994 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 1: the most horrific racist, anti gay, you know, go go 995 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 1: down the line, anti white. Just these people are. They're scum. 996 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 1: They're scum people, but the Times wanted to give them 997 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt. I wish I could just 998 01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 1: go into the newsrooms in these places and sit down 999 01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 1: and be like, who wants to debate this with me? 1000 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 1: Who wants to have this conversation? Oh? You know, we 1001 01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:05,800 Speaker 1: just we just do the news and in journals, and 1002 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:14,919 Speaker 1: journalism is rotten in this country. Journalism needs to be 1003 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:21,600 Speaker 1: rooted out and planted a new That's one of the 1004 01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 1: lessons of what we saw with Covington. So I'm very 1005 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 1: happy to see that there's going to be some legal 1006 01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:31,880 Speaker 1: action here. I don't know if they're going to be successful. 1007 01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:36,200 Speaker 1: I certainly hope they will be successful, but we can't. 1008 01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 1: This is just like the Jesse smaller thing. You know, 1009 01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 1: we are conservatives, we have lives, we are we are good, 1010 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 1: decent people that try to do the ethical thing, that 1011 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:48,200 Speaker 1: like to show mercy and forgiveness, and but we can't 1012 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 1: just get slapped in the face all the time and 1013 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 1: do nothing. We can't allow the system such as it is, 1014 01:03:55,040 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 1: to always undermine and destroy people like us. I'm sorry, 1015 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not saying that we have some persecution 1016 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 1: complex and oh we know, woe is us whatever, But 1017 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 1: you see it happening from the media perspective, it's just reality. 1018 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 1: They are trying to destroy their political opponents however they can. 1019 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,560 Speaker 1: They're trying to sell a certain kind of narrative to 1020 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:25,200 Speaker 1: their largely delusional audience. Whether it's on Russia collusion, or 1021 01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:31,360 Speaker 1: Covington or Kavanaugh or you name it. It's wrong. And 1022 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 1: I hope that there is some justice for Covington and 1023 01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 1: in that for all the rest of us as well. 1024 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 1: A bunch of let that's right, just like you're damn 1025 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 1: Donald Truck. Look all these dusty crackers with that racist garbage. One. 1026 01:04:54,000 --> 01:05:00,640 Speaker 1: Look at these dirty cracks. Look at these dirty crackers. 1027 01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:05,000 Speaker 1: The Black Israelites said to the Cummington High School students, 1028 01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:10,200 Speaker 1: dirty crackers. Anybody anybody find that offensive? I wanted to 1029 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:11,720 Speaker 1: play this before we got into the break. I just 1030 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 1: got so caught up in the moment that I skipped 1031 01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 1: over the clip dirty crackers. They said, that's remember, the 1032 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 1: Black Israelites are the people along with that guy um 1033 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:28,320 Speaker 1: from forgetting his name now, the Native American activist guy. 1034 01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 1: They were the ones and all of you're yelling his 1035 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 1: name because you remember, and I just blanked on it 1036 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:38,200 Speaker 1: for a second, but they were the ones that the 1037 01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 1: media was siding with against the kids. You know that 1038 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 1: there really is this this deep seated disdain on the 1039 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 1: left for people that fall into certain categories. If you 1040 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 1: if you are a white kid who goes to a 1041 01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,360 Speaker 1: Catholic school, which I assume you have to pay, it's 1042 01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,640 Speaker 1: not a public school. A white kid goes to a 1043 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,920 Speaker 1: Catholic school who supports Trump, they think you're the enemy. 1044 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 1: And there's no, Oh, we're gonna give them a little 1045 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:09,200 Speaker 1: bit of leeway because their kids and no, no no, because 1046 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 1: they're just gonna grow up to be big maga supporters 1047 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:14,040 Speaker 1: later on, right, so they they figure might as well 1048 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 1: take care of them right now, might as well decide 1049 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:23,200 Speaker 1: to ruin their lives as as quickly as possible. It's 1050 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 1: it's a troubling circumstance, to be sure, by the way. 1051 01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:29,880 Speaker 1: I didn't want to skip over because obviously this is 1052 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:34,040 Speaker 1: a major news story, and in what we have to 1053 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 1: find out more about the facts of the case, such 1054 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 1: as they are. But from what we understand right now, 1055 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:49,200 Speaker 1: there was a plot that was stopped from a white 1056 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:53,720 Speaker 1: nationalist who was trying to just trying to kill a 1057 01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:56,640 Speaker 1: whole bunch of people. He was in the I believe 1058 01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: in the Coast Guard. Right, Yeah, here we go. I'm Drea. 1059 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:01,360 Speaker 1: This is a from the guy I'm dreaming of a 1060 01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 1: way to kill almost every last person on earth. According 1061 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 1: to this Coastguard lieutenant and self identified white nationalist, Christopher 1062 01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:14,640 Speaker 1: Paul Hassan is his name, he wanted focused violence to 1063 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 1: establish a white homeland and said I'm dreaming of a 1064 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:20,880 Speaker 1: way to kill almost every last person on earth. The 1065 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 1: indictment of him says the defendant intends to murder innocent 1066 01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 1: civilians on a scale rarely seen in this country, and 1067 01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:30,640 Speaker 1: they're holding him on Roman not letting him out, and 1068 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,400 Speaker 1: he also bought a stash of steroids and narcotics, apparently 1069 01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:38,000 Speaker 1: to make it easier for him to sustain wounds, probably 1070 01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 1: bullet wounds when he went on this spree. There are 1071 01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 1: evil people of all kinds of ideologies and backgrounds, that 1072 01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:51,520 Speaker 1: much is for sure. This is somebody who, assuming the 1073 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:54,080 Speaker 1: facts that we have here are true and so far 1074 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 1: there's no reason to believe that they're not, should spend 1075 01:07:56,560 --> 01:08:00,480 Speaker 1: the rest of his life in prison, no question. I 1076 01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: think it's it's interesting me also that you know he's 1077 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 1: somebody who he stockpiled all these weapons, that went through 1078 01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:09,960 Speaker 1: all these procedures. I'm wondering what the how they got him. 1079 01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 1: I didn't see that today. I'm assuming they probably got 1080 01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:14,919 Speaker 1: an informant near him, but maybe they had something else 1081 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 1: that tipped them off to it. But now you're going 1082 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 1: to get into this discussion. As always, this is where 1083 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:25,320 Speaker 1: it always goes of. See, the real threat that we 1084 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:30,560 Speaker 1: face is from white nationalist domestic terrorists, not Islamic radicals. 1085 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,560 Speaker 1: This is what they always say. And to this I 1086 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:36,519 Speaker 1: have to I have to always take a moment, take 1087 01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:38,720 Speaker 1: a beat, and say, okay, let's go, let's go over 1088 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 1: this again. When a white nationalist decides to engage in 1089 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:49,439 Speaker 1: an active mass murder, he, based on the history of 1090 01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: this and cases in the past, overwhelmingly is acting on 1091 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:58,720 Speaker 1: his own is acting based on a sense of perceived 1092 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:05,599 Speaker 1: you know, heightened grieving, and is sociopathic or psychopathic. And 1093 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,639 Speaker 1: it's a terrible event. We should stop them, and if 1094 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 1: we can't stop them, we should lock them up, or 1095 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 1: more than lock them up as soon as we catch them. 1096 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:15,919 Speaker 1: Anybody who does this. But if you're going to compare 1097 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,240 Speaker 1: and this, I already saw this happening today. And you know, 1098 01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:20,800 Speaker 1: Corey Booker recently said, oh, the real threat in this 1099 01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:25,760 Speaker 1: country is from white nationalist terrorism. The moment you dig 1100 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 1: into it and you look at the numbers for the 1101 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:33,519 Speaker 1: last twenty years, it is not even close. How many 1102 01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 1: more people have been killed in this country by Islamic 1103 01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 1: radical terrorism than any other form. It is not even close. 1104 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:45,440 Speaker 1: How much more in terms of resources and security procedures. 1105 01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:47,680 Speaker 1: And you know we have a TSA not because of 1106 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 1: white nationalists. We all know this. We've had to dramatically 1107 01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:57,680 Speaker 1: change and have changed US foreign policy, spent trillions of 1108 01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: dollars overseas trying to root out Islamic radicalism, and when 1109 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:04,360 Speaker 1: an Islamic radical acts in this country, they do so 1110 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:11,559 Speaker 1: with a a belief that is supported by tens of 1111 01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:14,200 Speaker 1: millions of people around the world based on the numbers 1112 01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:17,240 Speaker 1: based on the Pew polling, and is often supported by 1113 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 1: entire nation states, places where there are millionaires and billionaires. 1114 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 1: That's right, who will send money to these kinds of groups, 1115 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 1: you know. So it's just in terms of scale, sophistication 1116 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:33,120 Speaker 1: and threat, it's not even close. Was this Coastguard lieutenant 1117 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:38,559 Speaker 1: a serious threat, a real problem, and a just terrible 1118 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:42,160 Speaker 1: human being? Yes, all of that is true. Is a 1119 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:44,880 Speaker 1: good work by the FBI to take him down, Absolutely 1120 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 1: fantastic and they should be praised for this. Does this 1121 01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:51,680 Speaker 1: mean that the real threat? If you're gonna ask me, 1122 01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 1: as a former counter terrorism analyst, somebody actually did that 1123 01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:56,840 Speaker 1: for a living. It's the real threat now, white nationalism 1124 01:10:56,840 --> 01:11:00,679 Speaker 1: and not Islamic radicalism. No, that is fall The numbers 1125 01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:05,040 Speaker 1: do not support it. Nothing on a strategic global level 1126 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:09,120 Speaker 1: supports it. So let's just understand what's real here and 1127 01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 1: what's not and keep things in context. Every business in 1128 01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:19,560 Speaker 1: every industry needs to be sure that the people that 1129 01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 1: they're bringing in are the people they think they are right. 1130 01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why background checks are so important. It's 1131 01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 1: also a liability issue. Whoever you bring in there, you've 1132 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 1: got to be able to trust and know that the 1133 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:32,760 Speaker 1: information they provided you is correct. That's why Global Verification 1134 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 1: Network is the best choice for you for background investigations 1135 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:39,040 Speaker 1: and vetting. They are a dual certified, in fact, the 1136 01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 1: only dual certified veteran owned and operated background investigation in 1137 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:46,240 Speaker 1: vetting company, and they're headquartered in Chicago with risk mitigation 1138 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 1: experts spread across the country.

Leave no stone unturned. 1146 01:12:18,439 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 1: I know that the media is going to work overtime 1147 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 1: to try and create this image of Bernie Sanders as 1148 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:27,559 Speaker 1: this cuddly guy who's up in Vermont and he just 1149 01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:29,599 Speaker 1: wants to give everybody to free stuff. And he wants 1150 01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,439 Speaker 1: to be friends with everybody. And no one pays for college, 1151 01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:35,080 Speaker 1: no one pays for healthcare, no one pays for food. 1152 01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:38,680 Speaker 1: I understand that that's where they want to take this. 1153 01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 1: That's going to be the overwhelming media effort around this issue, 1154 01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:47,880 Speaker 1: around the issue of Sanders candidacy. I'm here to just 1155 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 1: remind everybody that this is a guy who, as an adult. 1156 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about going back in time and digging 1157 01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:59,639 Speaker 1: up old tweets or you know, talking about herebook photos 1158 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:01,559 Speaker 1: or any anything like that. This is a guy who, 1159 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:06,759 Speaker 1: as an adult and somebody was already in public life, 1160 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:10,400 Speaker 1: decided for the old tweets. I'm in for people that 1161 01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 1: were teenagers then, which would not Bernie Sanders would not 1162 01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 1: count in that. In that regard, Bernie Sanders is somebody 1163 01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:23,559 Speaker 1: who had a very clear sympathy with a system that 1164 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:26,920 Speaker 1: had enslaved hundreds of millions of people around the world 1165 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:30,559 Speaker 1: for decades, and a system that had created that had 1166 01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:35,320 Speaker 1: been propping up the Soviet Union and communism a true 1167 01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:39,280 Speaker 1: mortal threat to the United States and some of the 1168 01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 1: little satellites of that Soviet Communist menace. Bernie Sanders was 1169 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:50,120 Speaker 1: quite fond of them. And we should, we should. You know, 1170 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:52,719 Speaker 1: this is all fair game, folks. He was an adult, 1171 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 1: he spent time there. This is like when what's his 1172 01:13:56,600 --> 01:14:02,639 Speaker 1: name of, Deblasio Kasa Virham, Deblasio Warren or sorry, Warren 1173 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:05,920 Speaker 1: Wilhelm build a Blasio, same guy, and when he went 1174 01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:09,080 Speaker 1: I think too, I think it was down to Nicaragua 1175 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:11,559 Speaker 1: to hang out with the Sandinistas. I mean, these people 1176 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,000 Speaker 1: who do this stuff, think about that. Of all the 1177 01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:16,439 Speaker 1: places you go in the world, Bernie Sanders honeymoons in 1178 01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 1: the Soviet Unions. That is an utterly bizarre thing to do, 1179 01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:24,800 Speaker 1: especially at a time when you remember the culture. I mean, hey, 1180 01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,920 Speaker 1: I saw Rocky four right, it was very clear who 1181 01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:31,200 Speaker 1: was on our team who was on their team. You're 1182 01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:32,840 Speaker 1: gonna go over to Sylviet Union to come back to 1183 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:37,000 Speaker 1: the great great transportation and breadlines are wonderful because you're 1184 01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 1: in the line and then when you wait for six 1185 01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 1: seven hours, the stale bread waiting for you free. This 1186 01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:48,880 Speaker 1: is disconcerting because I do think that Bernie is going 1187 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:51,280 Speaker 1: to be, at least for a while, their front runner. 1188 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:53,559 Speaker 1: They may have to switch somebody else out for Bernie 1189 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:57,360 Speaker 1: as Moore comes out about him, and I do think 1190 01:14:57,360 --> 01:15:00,200 Speaker 1: people keep saying, well, Trump is I'm sorry, seventy two, 1191 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 1: who is not seventy seven? You know, he's even older. 1192 01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:08,599 Speaker 1: He's even more past the red line of being able 1193 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:13,719 Speaker 1: to carry the presidency based on energy and the decision 1194 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:19,719 Speaker 1: making processes that do take it out on people. Play 1195 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,640 Speaker 1: clip sixteen here this is burn. I remember, for some 1196 01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 1: reason other being very excited when when Fidel Cashtro made 1197 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:27,000 Speaker 1: the revolution in Cuba, and I was a kid, and 1198 01:15:27,040 --> 01:15:29,559 Speaker 1: I remember reading that and it was just seemed right 1199 01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:32,759 Speaker 1: inappropriate that poor people were rising up against rather ugly 1200 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:35,920 Speaker 1: rich people. And I remember it again very distinctly, a 1201 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:38,840 Speaker 1: very distinct feeling. I was watching the debates, you remember 1202 01:15:38,880 --> 01:15:41,240 Speaker 1: the famous Nixon Kennedy debates. That was the first time 1203 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:44,639 Speaker 1: in the presidential candidates actually debated, and I was becoming 1204 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,160 Speaker 1: increasingly entrusted in politics. Didn't know much, but was interesting. 1205 01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 1: I remember sitting in the student lounge at our dormitory 1206 01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,720 Speaker 1: watching the debate, and at that time we could talk 1207 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:54,920 Speaker 1: about Cuban. Now, I was very excited and press play 1208 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:58,439 Speaker 1: the Cuban Revolution. We should deal firmly with Fidel Cashtro 1209 01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:00,840 Speaker 1: and Nixon was playing the role of hey, you gotta 1210 01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:03,000 Speaker 1: be patient. You know, you can't do these things. You 1211 01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 1: gotta negotiate. What of course, what he was upset about 1212 01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:07,040 Speaker 1: is that secretly they were planning the Bay of Pigs 1213 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 1: invasion right then. So he he was the liberal and 1214 01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,960 Speaker 1: Kennedy was playing the conservative. And actually you know they're 1215 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:16,040 Speaker 1: When you read novels, people say there's a sick feeling 1216 01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:19,320 Speaker 1: in yourself. Usually I'm sufficiently unemotional not to be sick, 1217 01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:21,439 Speaker 1: but actually got off in the room and almost left 1218 01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:27,759 Speaker 1: the public. You can't criticize Cuba, or Bernie might puke 1219 01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:32,680 Speaker 1: on your shoes. That's that's a that's a conversation that 1220 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:35,880 Speaker 1: some of my friends who are Cuban, who are true 1221 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 1: refugees by the way, from Cuba, people who had to flee. 1222 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:46,040 Speaker 1: I know people that their families, lands and property were confiscated, 1223 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:51,640 Speaker 1: that they were under under real threat of torture and 1224 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:57,559 Speaker 1: imprisonment and even execution if they weren't able to get 1225 01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:59,840 Speaker 1: out of the country. And I wonder what Bernie would 1226 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:03,479 Speaker 1: say to those people. Well, we have some sense of it. 1227 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 1: In that clip he said, rising up against the ugly 1228 01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:10,640 Speaker 1: rich people. Why is it if if we're supposed to 1229 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 1: get Sweden, if the Democrats today, the Occasio Cortez is 1230 01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 1: the Elizabeth Warrens. If the left wing socialist Democrats in 1231 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 1: America are promising Denmark for us, why do they still 1232 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 1: have a sweet spot for Cuba? What is it about 1233 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 1: a country that imprisons people for their politics, imprisons and 1234 01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:40,519 Speaker 1: persecutes homosexuals, has executed political prisoners by the thousands, stretching 1235 01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 1: back into the early days of Chegavara and the revolution 1236 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:51,360 Speaker 1: in Cuba? Right, what is it about Cuba that still 1237 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:55,960 Speaker 1: strikes this chord where there's some degree of fondness in 1238 01:17:56,000 --> 01:18:01,160 Speaker 1: the hearts of American democratic socialists. You know, why is 1239 01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:05,360 Speaker 1: it that the only people who look at Venezuela and think, WHOA, 1240 01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:09,320 Speaker 1: Let's not get too involved there. Let's not even send 1241 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 1: food to starving people. I'm not talking about military force. 1242 01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 1: Let's not even send humanitarian aid. We should because that 1243 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 1: will obviously make the regime look bad. If America has 1244 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:22,240 Speaker 1: to feed the people, right, and that's going to help 1245 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:24,400 Speaker 1: push this coup along they call it. I mean, the 1246 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:28,720 Speaker 1: last election was a farce. Maduro cheated. We're supposed to 1247 01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 1: believe at institutions, We're supposed to believe that you can't 1248 01:18:33,520 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 1: cheat and get away with it, at least in this country. 1249 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:39,040 Speaker 1: But in Venezuela they'll say, oh no, that's that's just 1250 01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 1: how they were doing things there. Maduro he had to 1251 01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:44,960 Speaker 1: play a little dirty, but he's still the president. The 1252 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:48,479 Speaker 1: only people that come to Maduro's aid in this country 1253 01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:51,920 Speaker 1: are the leftist socialists. Why you know, I think it's 1254 01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:55,800 Speaker 1: worth asking these questions. It's one thing to say I 1255 01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,600 Speaker 1: love Sweden, I love Denmark. I want America to be 1256 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 1: like those countries. Right If Bernie wants to be the 1257 01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:04,360 Speaker 1: mayor of Stockholm and sit in the White House when 1258 01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:08,120 Speaker 1: he does it, that's that's one thing. But you'll notice 1259 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 1: that when it comes to Nicaragua, when it comes to 1260 01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: what's happened in Venezuela and now for decades with Cuba, 1261 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:22,080 Speaker 1: the left in this country has a fondness for those 1262 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,400 Speaker 1: for those nations. And I don't mean for the people, 1263 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:30,360 Speaker 1: I mean for the regimes, for the governing systems. I'm sorry, 1264 01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:33,160 Speaker 1: but to be able to go back and to hear 1265 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:39,680 Speaker 1: somebody like Bernie Sanders praising the Soviet Union, openly longing 1266 01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:43,360 Speaker 1: for the days of Cuba's revolution against the quote ugly 1267 01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:47,880 Speaker 1: rich people. Why why should we think that his mentality 1268 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 1: has really changed that much. Because he's old now and 1269 01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:53,160 Speaker 1: a little cookier. It seems a little a little more 1270 01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 1: like the like the crazy grandpa that you gotta make 1271 01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:58,559 Speaker 1: sure it doesn't wander out into the snow in his underwear. 1272 01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:02,639 Speaker 1: I mean, what is it about Bernie Sanders? Now, that's 1273 01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:05,759 Speaker 1: so he's talking about free healthcare, he's talking about soaking 1274 01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:09,320 Speaker 1: the rich with taxes. What qualifies as rich? By the way, 1275 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 1: that's always a This is like when people say, do 1276 01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:14,160 Speaker 1: you believe in climate change? And this is a nonsense 1277 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 1: question because even if I do, what do we do 1278 01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:20,160 Speaker 1: about it? And how much climate change? How much climate 1279 01:20:20,240 --> 01:20:22,840 Speaker 1: change am I supposed to be worried about? Here? To 1280 01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:24,760 Speaker 1: what degree? When you say that you're only going to 1281 01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:29,960 Speaker 1: tax the rich, which Occasio Cortez and Warren and name 1282 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:33,120 Speaker 1: a Democrat who's not an establishment kind of Wall Street 1283 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:37,360 Speaker 1: Hollywood friendly. Although Hollywood is actually very behind Bernie Sanders. 1284 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:39,599 Speaker 1: There's a lot of big money in Hollywood that likes 1285 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:43,320 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, but they all want to tax the rich 1286 01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:47,799 Speaker 1: more in order to fund these enormously expensive social programs. 1287 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:50,000 Speaker 1: And so I do think we should ask the question. Okay, 1288 01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:56,519 Speaker 1: so given that reality what makes somebody rich? Are we 1289 01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 1: really going to walk around and pretend that somebody who 1290 01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:01,880 Speaker 1: makes twenty million dollars is the same financial footage as 1291 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:05,559 Speaker 1: somebody who makes two hundred thousand dollars. And how do 1292 01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:07,840 Speaker 1: we pay for all these programs that they talk about? 1293 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:11,599 Speaker 1: When if you took every dollar that is made by 1294 01:21:11,640 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 1: people over ten million a year in this country, you 1295 01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 1: just seized all of it, you wouldn't be able to 1296 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:20,920 Speaker 1: fund the stuff that these democrats are talking about because 1297 01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:22,880 Speaker 1: there aren't that many people who make that much money. 1298 01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:27,760 Speaker 1: The money is in the middle class. The money is 1299 01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:32,240 Speaker 1: in folks who are just showing up, doing jobs, paying 1300 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:35,880 Speaker 1: their bills, and doing things the right way. And when 1301 01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:38,560 Speaker 1: I mean the money from a from a taxation perspective, 1302 01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:42,519 Speaker 1: that's where it really really moves the needle. So what 1303 01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:44,360 Speaker 1: they'll try to do, what Sanders is going to do 1304 01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,679 Speaker 1: is one tell us that it's not fair to point 1305 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:49,880 Speaker 1: to Venezuela. It's not fair to point to Cuba and 1306 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:53,800 Speaker 1: say that's socialism for you. This is where socialism leads 1307 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,600 Speaker 1: because look at these European countries. And he's going to 1308 01:21:56,680 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 1: hope that people don't pay attention to one the the 1309 01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:03,360 Speaker 1: bureaucracy in those European countries. That would be like trying 1310 01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:07,160 Speaker 1: to make socialism work in you know, Rhode Island or Maine. 1311 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:10,320 Speaker 1: All right, it's not making it work in a country 1312 01:22:10,320 --> 01:22:13,439 Speaker 1: of three hundred and twenty million people start start with that, 1313 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:17,639 Speaker 1: and we're talking about countries like Denmark and Sweden. These 1314 01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 1: are these are the size of a US state, one 1315 01:22:22,520 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 1: US state, and not even the biggest ones. So he's 1316 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: hoping that people don't pay attention to the scope and 1317 01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 1: scale of the projects that he's really talking about. And 1318 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:35,320 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to dig into the fondness that the 1319 01:22:35,400 --> 01:22:38,120 Speaker 1: left has for all of these socialist regimes, which just 1320 01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:40,599 Speaker 1: keeps coming up. Right, they there were New York Times 1321 01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 1: articles praising Venezuela in twenty twelve. Maybe they're gonna make 1322 01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:47,400 Speaker 1: this whole thing work. And I think that in an 1323 01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:50,519 Speaker 1: era when we're told that there's somebody who might be 1324 01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:53,880 Speaker 1: doing Russia's interest, right, Trump is he's Putin's puppet, and 1325 01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 1: all this stuff is Sanders a communist puppet because he 1326 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,920 Speaker 1: used to like communism a lot. Now he says socialism. 1327 01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:03,439 Speaker 1: But if you were going to get a communist to 1328 01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:05,320 Speaker 1: be the president the United states. Wouldn't he have to 1329 01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:08,680 Speaker 1: say that he was a democratic socialist first? I think 1330 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:14,719 Speaker 1: it's fair to ask the question. AARP is a very 1331 01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:18,200 Speaker 1: well known organization for seniors, but if you dig a 1332 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 1: little deeper, you find out that aarps pretty left wing. 1333 01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:26,880 Speaker 1: They support things like government run healthcare, They are not 1334 01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 1: strong on our southern border. They want higher taxes for 1335 01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:31,920 Speaker 1: the middle class. You don't want any of that stuff, 1336 01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:34,920 Speaker 1: So how about you join an organization for seniors that 1337 01:23:35,280 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 1: represents your conservative values and gets you a lot of 1338 01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:42,719 Speaker 1: great benefits AMAC. Why do I recommend AMAC? Will?

I know that everyone's focused on a 1346 01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 1: hoax hate crime today, but turns out there are in 1347 01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:22,000 Speaker 1: fact real hate crimes out there, as you no doubt 1348 01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 1: already no, but they're not always against individuals who are 1349 01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 1: in a protected group. It's not always the intersectional left 1350 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:35,480 Speaker 1: that is somehow being attacked. Sometimes just being a conservative 1351 01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:39,080 Speaker 1: can get you punched in the face. We have Benny 1352 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:42,200 Speaker 1: Johnson with us now. Benny is the creative director at 1353 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 1: Turning Point USA, formerly of The Daily Caller, also a 1354 01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:48,679 Speaker 1: colleague of mine from the Blaze days. Mister Johnson, great 1355 01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:52,240 Speaker 1: to have you on. Hey, thanks, Buck, appreciate it. So 1356 01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:55,840 Speaker 1: you have this video you've been sharing of, Well, tell 1357 01:24:55,960 --> 01:24:57,960 Speaker 1: us what happened first, then we'll actually play the audio. 1358 01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:00,280 Speaker 1: I wish people could see it because it's vicious, But 1359 01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:05,440 Speaker 1: tell us what happened. Sure. So Turning Point is a 1360 01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:12,600 Speaker 1: young conservative engagement organization, nonprofit. We make sure that conservatives 1361 01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:15,280 Speaker 1: across the country and on campuses all over the country 1362 01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:19,360 Speaker 1: all have opportunity and access to free market ideas and 1363 01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 1: free market content. And so one of our one of 1364 01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:26,400 Speaker 1: our students, member of our organization, was on the campus 1365 01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 1: of UC Berkeley in California, a particularly liberal campus, and 1366 01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:35,160 Speaker 1: was merely tabling. It's something that happens normally on a 1367 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:39,160 Speaker 1: college campus. You share material and ideas. This is just 1368 01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 1: a free speech ideas and zone and a angry leftist 1369 01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 1: of whom we do not know the identity of just 1370 01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 1: yet and cannot confirm if they were an actual student 1371 01:25:49,360 --> 01:25:52,080 Speaker 1: at Berkeley. But an angry leftist came up and assaulted, 1372 01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:57,759 Speaker 1: committed a violent act against one of our students, punched 1373 01:25:57,800 --> 01:26:03,040 Speaker 1: him in the face, cause quite a bit of damage. Um, 1374 01:26:03,439 --> 01:26:09,000 Speaker 1: and it's a horrific, horrific violent act. Now, Benny, we're 1375 01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:14,720 Speaker 1: gonna play the audio from this play at John Jesus 1376 01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:34,599 Speaker 1: Clay what oh so a lot of profanity here, because 1377 01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:36,840 Speaker 1: what's happening is you got the Turning Point USA kid, 1378 01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,280 Speaker 1: and you go to Benny Johnson's Twitter account and you 1379 01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:41,760 Speaker 1: can see it. He's he's been sharing it. You got 1380 01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:44,400 Speaker 1: a guy from Turning Point. He's just trying to get 1381 01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:48,719 Speaker 1: get young conservatives to sign up, and some considerably larger 1382 01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:52,880 Speaker 1: dude comes along, clearly and deranged leftist assaults him and 1383 01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 1: then land's a really nasty punch right right in the 1384 01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:57,960 Speaker 1: kid's face. Benny, how's he doing, by the way, and 1385 01:26:58,000 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 1: how's he how's the young man who was attacked reacting 1386 01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:05,080 Speaker 1: into this? Yeah, it's it's bad. We're keeping his identity, 1387 01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:09,599 Speaker 1: is making sure that he is safe right now. But 1388 01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:13,479 Speaker 1: I've seen photos of the injury. It's a very very 1389 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 1: bad injury. It was a very very bad punch. And 1390 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:19,400 Speaker 1: this is again on a college campus. And the victim here, 1391 01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 1: who's a victim of a politically inspired hate crime. You 1392 01:27:22,200 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 1: have to call it that. That is exactly what this is. 1393 01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:27,439 Speaker 1: He's being targeted for his personal beliefs. This is a 1394 01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:31,560 Speaker 1: hate crime. This victim was merely saying that he is 1395 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:36,759 Speaker 1: a conservative and being a mouthpiece for some conservative ideas 1396 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:39,640 Speaker 1: on the campus of Berkeley. That is all of the 1397 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,760 Speaker 1: information we know right now. This is not a fight, 1398 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,679 Speaker 1: This was on instigation. This was not a violent riot. 1399 01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,600 Speaker 1: This was just a young conservative saying something conservative on 1400 01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:50,719 Speaker 1: a college campus. And what does he get for it? 1401 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:54,000 Speaker 1: Pulled off and punched in the face to the point 1402 01:27:54,040 --> 01:28:00,639 Speaker 1: of a horrific personal injury. It's really bad by Berkeley 1403 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:05,400 Speaker 1: right now. Buck is actually asking for any information to 1404 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 1: identify who committed the violent act, they said in a 1405 01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:12,360 Speaker 1: statement just released now, but they strongly condemned this. And 1406 01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:16,080 Speaker 1: then Berkeley is a campus that believes in commitment in 1407 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:18,640 Speaker 1: freedom of expression, So we afford to working with the 1408 01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:24,439 Speaker 1: authorities and bringing justice to this hate crime. For this 1409 01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:29,719 Speaker 1: hate crime against political opinion. I remember when the coxin 1410 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:32,880 Speaker 1: on my crew team in college, who was a very 1411 01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:35,200 Speaker 1: small guy. Because coxins have to be because of the 1412 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 1: weight in the boat. It's important you get somebody who's 1413 01:28:38,080 --> 01:28:40,519 Speaker 1: and oftentimes it's actually have female coxin on an all 1414 01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:42,880 Speaker 1: male crew team. But I remember he got he got 1415 01:28:43,080 --> 01:28:45,599 Speaker 1: debt by a person he had never talked to and 1416 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:49,040 Speaker 1: had never met at a party on campus. It's a 1417 01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:50,719 Speaker 1: good thing I wasn't there. He was a good friend 1418 01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:52,080 Speaker 1: of mine and I would have had to take matters 1419 01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:55,120 Speaker 1: into my own hands. But he got decked out, broke 1420 01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:58,120 Speaker 1: his glasses, gave him a black guy. And it's just 1421 01:28:58,280 --> 01:29:00,720 Speaker 1: I bring this up, Benny, because I cannot. I mean, 1422 01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:04,720 Speaker 1: that's a personal experience. You're now spreading what happened here 1423 01:29:04,800 --> 01:29:07,760 Speaker 1: on UC Berkeley. I can't think of an instance where 1424 01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:12,080 Speaker 1: a conservative student has walked up to a crazy lib 1425 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:14,439 Speaker 1: on campus, which obviously there are tons of them, and 1426 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:16,840 Speaker 1: punched one of them in the face. I can rattle 1427 01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:20,360 Speaker 1: off lots of instances of people who were punched for 1428 01:29:20,439 --> 01:29:24,679 Speaker 1: being conservatives. Yes, at turning point, we are actually producing 1429 01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:28,920 Speaker 1: right now a long video that shows the instances of violence, 1430 01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:31,920 Speaker 1: just the notable instances of violence over the last two 1431 01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:36,080 Speaker 1: years from the left there are major instances that made 1432 01:29:36,160 --> 01:29:39,800 Speaker 1: national news. For instance, the young Maga hat wearing kid 1433 01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:42,880 Speaker 1: who was just a teenager at a water burger had 1434 01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:45,760 Speaker 1: his hat taken soda thrown in his face. A pro 1435 01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:49,920 Speaker 1: life supporter in Canada had her phone kicked and herself 1436 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:53,879 Speaker 1: like kicked across the face by a pro choice activist. 1437 01:29:54,280 --> 01:29:57,680 Speaker 1: And then just dozens and dozens and dozens of Antifa 1438 01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:04,400 Speaker 1: incidence of Antifa islands that cause major injury, major damage 1439 01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:08,120 Speaker 1: to businesses and to the public sector. And a lot 1440 01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,519 Speaker 1: of this violence is directed at police, a lot of 1441 01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:15,240 Speaker 1: this violence is directed at at the authorities. It's it 1442 01:30:15,360 --> 01:30:20,400 Speaker 1: is absolutely impossible to make the case that there is 1443 01:30:19,800 --> 01:30:22,640 Speaker 1: that there's an equitable level of violence between the right 1444 01:30:22,680 --> 01:30:27,360 Speaker 1: and the left. The left has an enormous amount of 1445 01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:32,360 Speaker 1: incidence of violence against innocent people generally hate crimes because 1446 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:35,920 Speaker 1: of political opinion. Benny, Where can people go to see 1447 01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:37,760 Speaker 1: the work you're doing a turning point and also to 1448 01:30:37,760 --> 01:30:40,960 Speaker 1: follow up on this story. Yeah, so I'm going to 1449 01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:44,160 Speaker 1: be I'm going to be on Twitter very active about 1450 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:46,439 Speaker 1: this in the next twenty four hours. Is things develop, 1451 01:30:46,920 --> 01:30:50,760 Speaker 1: we are going to be looking into pursuing all actions 1452 01:30:51,280 --> 01:30:57,559 Speaker 1: in order to defend our campus representative. And as of 1453 01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:01,080 Speaker 1: right now, what we're looking at bucks to bring justice 1454 01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:04,679 Speaker 1: and identify who the person was that committed hate crime, 1455 01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:08,439 Speaker 1: the committed this act of hate political hate crime, and 1456 01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:11,160 Speaker 1: so they can go to Turning Point USA on social media, 1457 01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:14,280 Speaker 1: maybe go to Benny Johnson on Twitter. All right, Benny, 1458 01:31:14,360 --> 01:31:15,920 Speaker 1: stay on this one man, and thank you so much 1459 01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:18,400 Speaker 1: for calling in. Good to talk to you. Thank you. Buck. 1460 01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:26,040 Speaker 1: Team will be right back. Such a bunch of snowflakes 1461 01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:30,640 Speaker 1: in the mainstream media. I mentioned this yesterday. Sarah is 1462 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:34,120 Speaker 1: Gert somebody whom I know, and in fact, those of 1463 01:31:34,160 --> 01:31:37,080 Speaker 1: you who used to watch real News back in the day, 1464 01:31:37,160 --> 01:31:43,320 Speaker 1: we'll remember Sarah had shorter hair, perhaps a slightly different 1465 01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:48,280 Speaker 1: personal style, but she was a not frequent but she 1466 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:52,240 Speaker 1: had multiple appearances on real News. On the Blaze TV, 1467 01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:55,960 Speaker 1: which was the best obviously other than Glenn Show for 1468 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:57,559 Speaker 1: those of you who are glennback fans, was the best 1469 01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:00,880 Speaker 1: show ever to be in my opinion, on the Blaze TV, 1470 01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:04,160 Speaker 1: which was Real News. That panel turned out to be 1471 01:32:04,200 --> 01:32:06,880 Speaker 1: a young conservative all star panel, just not everybody knew 1472 01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:08,720 Speaker 1: it at the time. But we've all gone off to 1473 01:32:08,760 --> 01:32:13,759 Speaker 1: do bigger things in the media sphere anyway, Sarah Sarah 1474 01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:19,040 Speaker 1: Izger is getting all kinds of heat and hate from 1475 01:32:19,360 --> 01:32:23,639 Speaker 1: the left because she has worked for Republicans and now 1476 01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:29,519 Speaker 1: she's in a position of being an editorial editorial position 1477 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:32,760 Speaker 1: in the CNN newsroom going into twenty twenty, and they 1478 01:32:32,840 --> 01:32:37,880 Speaker 1: are freaking out. In fact, the DNC bunch of cry 1479 01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:42,160 Speaker 1: babies over there, they're freaking out. Two. The Democratic National 1480 01:32:42,200 --> 01:32:45,840 Speaker 1: Committee has sought and received assurances from CNN. This is 1481 01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:49,719 Speaker 1: from The Daily Beast today that the network's new politics editor, 1482 01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:53,200 Speaker 1: Sarah Izger, will not be involved in the debates that 1483 01:32:53,240 --> 01:32:56,519 Speaker 1: the channel hosts and moderates for the Democratic Party. The 1484 01:32:56,560 --> 01:33:00,839 Speaker 1: assurances were provided after the Committee express reservations to CNN 1485 01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:05,120 Speaker 1: over Iger's history in Republican politics, and after officials at 1486 01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:08,920 Speaker 1: the committee raised concerns over her alleged connections to a 1487 01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:12,720 Speaker 1: now retracted Fox News story on the debunked Seth Rich 1488 01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:17,160 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. Guys, this is pathetic, But this really shows 1489 01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:21,320 Speaker 1: you who the mainstream media is. What a bunch of whiny, 1490 01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 1: delusional cry babies they are. Oh, I'm sorry, Candy Crowley 1491 01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:31,679 Speaker 1: is a nonpartisan debate moderator. Remember or who did call 1492 01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:35,280 Speaker 1: it a terrorist attack during the Romney Obama debate, remember that, 1493 01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:42,520 Speaker 1: or mister Robin who did call it a terror You know? Nope, sorry, Candy, 1494 01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:44,719 Speaker 1: he did not. Obama did not call it terrorist attack. 1495 01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:49,200 Speaker 1: But you know, fake Tapper, what about him? Guy worked 1496 01:33:49,200 --> 01:33:54,479 Speaker 1: for a Democrat congressional aspirant and even worse than my view, 1497 01:33:54,560 --> 01:33:57,720 Speaker 1: was part of the organization that became the Brady Campaign 1498 01:33:57,800 --> 01:34:00,479 Speaker 1: to end gun violence. That's right for an anti group. 1499 01:34:00,640 --> 01:34:05,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's so nonpartisan. George Stephanopolis was a Clinton 1500 01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:09,040 Speaker 1: White House aide and he's one of the most revered 1501 01:34:09,080 --> 01:34:12,080 Speaker 1: anchors in mainstream media. I mean, it's sold. These people 1502 01:34:12,320 --> 01:34:14,639 Speaker 1: are full of it. That's why they have to hide 1503 01:34:14,640 --> 01:34:18,880 Speaker 1: their little pampered anchors from having to have these discussions 1504 01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:22,880 Speaker 1: in places where they can't control how much time, who's there, 1505 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:26,040 Speaker 1: who's showing up when they go to commercial. They'll never 1506 01:34:26,040 --> 01:34:29,519 Speaker 1: do it. They will never do it. The mainstream media 1507 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:33,439 Speaker 1: knows that there their days are numbered with at least 1508 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:39,240 Speaker 1: the the patina, the veneer of journalistic integrity that they've 1509 01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:41,519 Speaker 1: been clinging to for all these decades. That they know 1510 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:44,680 Speaker 1: that their their time I think is coming to an end. 1511 01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:48,840 Speaker 1: And I read this a very interesting producer Mike actually 1512 01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:51,439 Speaker 1: flagged it from me, this interview with Barry Diller. Some 1513 01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:53,920 Speaker 1: of you might know Barry Diller. He was ahead of 1514 01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:57,000 Speaker 1: I forget Paramount Studios, I think or one of the 1515 01:34:57,040 --> 01:35:01,520 Speaker 1: big Hollywood studios then was He's He's been head of IAC, 1516 01:35:01,920 --> 01:35:03,519 Speaker 1: he was on the board of the Washington Post. He's 1517 01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:07,679 Speaker 1: a big mover and shaker in the media world. Help 1518 01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:11,479 Speaker 1: found Expedia. I think or was involved early on with Expedia. Anyway, 1519 01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:15,680 Speaker 1: he's tender. You know, hey, swipe left, swipe swipe right. 1520 01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:19,519 Speaker 1: You can thank Barry Diller. He was just saying how 1521 01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:21,760 Speaker 1: it used to be the in this interview that the 1522 01:35:22,080 --> 01:35:27,520 Speaker 1: Hollywood studios were the biggest thing, and the network television 1523 01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:29,680 Speaker 1: got kind of bought up by the studios. But it 1524 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:32,360 Speaker 1: was all part of this system. Right now, the system 1525 01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:37,680 Speaker 1: has changed. Now the big kids on the block are Google, Amazon, Facebook. 1526 01:35:37,760 --> 01:35:43,400 Speaker 1: Now Silicon Valley has more control over the content funnels 1527 01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:47,559 Speaker 1: than anything than anything else in the whole game. So 1528 01:35:47,600 --> 01:35:50,280 Speaker 1: this is all shifting. And that's why I'm trying to 1529 01:35:50,320 --> 01:35:53,240 Speaker 1: tell you early on that the Netflix is and the 1530 01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:57,519 Speaker 1: Amazons and the you know, these entities are going to 1531 01:35:57,560 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 1: give the left and even greater leg up than they've 1532 01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:04,360 Speaker 1: had in the past, unless we start to hold them 1533 01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:07,800 Speaker 1: to account for their biases and also consider, you know, 1534 01:36:07,840 --> 01:36:12,840 Speaker 1: alternative means of well, alternative platforms. Quite honestly, you know, 1535 01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:16,400 Speaker 1: nobody wants to believe this, but you know, Twitter bands conservatives. 1536 01:36:16,439 --> 01:36:19,599 Speaker 1: It does not ban liberals unless they're making death threats, 1537 01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:23,920 Speaker 1: and even then it rarely bans them. Nobody believes it, 1538 01:36:23,960 --> 01:36:29,360 Speaker 1: but it's true anyway that the DNC is so scared, 1539 01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:33,400 Speaker 1: like a bunch of little shivering snowflakes, that they can 1540 01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 1: have Sarah Izger go work at CNN. I mean, I 1541 01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:39,200 Speaker 1: like Sarah. She's a nice lady. Kind of feel bad 1542 01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:41,120 Speaker 1: that she's going to be in the lions Den over 1543 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:43,479 Speaker 1: there because she's gonna find out real soon not a 1544 01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:47,000 Speaker 1: good place, not an honest organization. And there's some good 1545 01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:50,120 Speaker 1: people there, but a lot of bad people, and the 1546 01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:58,320 Speaker 1: bad people are the ones running things. Now. The show 1547 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:06,800 Speaker 1: ain't over yet, folks, keeping it real, It's time for 1548 01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:21,679 Speaker 1: roll call.

It's 1574 01:39:06,600 --> 01:39:08,600 Speaker 1: a car that I think used to be kind of 1575 01:39:08,640 --> 01:39:14,840 Speaker 1: like a badass American car driving a firebird. Yeah, it's 1576 01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:17,040 Speaker 1: kind of like a is a Firebird kind of like 1577 01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:19,360 Speaker 1: a poor man's Mustang?

And some of the people that actually 1580 01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:27,599 Speaker 1: know cars in this audience are are just yelling at 1581 01:39:27,640 --> 01:39:31,360 Speaker 1: the at the radio right now. They are. They should 1582 01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:33,040 Speaker 1: be discussed with me that I don't know the difference. 1583 01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:37,760 Speaker 1: It's it's a fair point, Jim writes. Role call okay, Jim, 1584 01:39:37,760 --> 01:39:42,000 Speaker 1: We'll hear. The continuing hate crime conspiracy continues after the 1585 01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:46,960 Speaker 1: indictment of Jussie. He orchestrated the hoax and the regressive media, 1586 01:39:47,040 --> 01:39:50,639 Speaker 1: the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party accomplices now take 1587 01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:55,160 Speaker 1: offense at being outrage that it affects black at being caught, 1588 01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:58,880 Speaker 1: rather being outraged that it affects blacks and gays, never 1589 01:39:58,920 --> 01:40:02,400 Speaker 1: mentioning the hate crime of false accusations against white people, 1590 01:40:02,439 --> 01:40:06,280 Speaker 1: Trump supporters and and others. The real enemy here are 1591 01:40:06,320 --> 01:40:08,439 Speaker 1: the liars in the media, and until we have a 1592 01:40:08,479 --> 01:40:11,960 Speaker 1: constitution loving network, we won't make real progress. Fox is 1593 01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:14,559 Speaker 1: not the solution with the boys running the show, allowing 1594 01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:22,160 Speaker 1: Shep and others to remain. So you're saying that what 1595 01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:25,400 Speaker 1: does accomplice not take offense at being caught being outraged? 1596 01:40:26,200 --> 01:40:29,280 Speaker 1: Never mentioned the hate crime of false accusations against white people. 1597 01:40:29,840 --> 01:40:32,519 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, we've been talking about the Smallet hoax 1598 01:40:32,600 --> 01:40:35,599 Speaker 1: here all along. It really is a hate crime against 1599 01:40:35,640 --> 01:40:39,480 Speaker 1: Trump supporters. The hoax is a hate crime against Trump supporters. 1600 01:40:40,400 --> 01:40:46,960 Speaker 1: Brian writes, don't stop your astute analogies because a particular 1601 01:40:47,080 --> 01:40:50,240 Speaker 1: dislike a particular listener dislikes them. Brother, your analogies are 1602 01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:54,320 Speaker 1: ammo for many of us to win obvious discussions with 1603 01:40:54,360 --> 01:40:57,439 Speaker 1: our liberal friends. All right, Brian, I like it. We 1604 01:40:57,479 --> 01:40:59,680 Speaker 1: will keep some of the analogies going. I'll just try 1605 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:05,400 Speaker 1: to keep them at a high level. So it's important 1606 01:41:05,400 --> 01:41:08,400 Speaker 1: to keep the analogies good, and that much I think 1607 01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:12,160 Speaker 1: we can do. Michael writes, the reason we knew it 1608 01:41:12,200 --> 01:41:15,040 Speaker 1: was a hoax from the beginning is because we know 1609 01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:20,519 Speaker 1: how absurd it sounded, and it sounds over the top absurd. However, 1610 01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:23,000 Speaker 1: to the left who think hate crimes are on the rise. 1611 01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:24,880 Speaker 1: It was on a par with the fantasy that they 1612 01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:27,320 Speaker 1: think is going on in this country. Are the lives 1613 01:41:27,360 --> 01:41:30,880 Speaker 1: actually delusional or are they lying about it to gain power? Michael, 1614 01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:35,080 Speaker 1: very important question. I would note that the hate crimes 1615 01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:38,479 Speaker 1: are on the rise is a talking point that is 1616 01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:41,679 Speaker 1: never able to on the rise and on what time frame? 1617 01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:45,000 Speaker 1: What kind of hate crimes? What a degree of hate crime? 1618 01:41:45,840 --> 01:41:48,320 Speaker 1: Talking about people that say something mean to somebody in 1619 01:41:48,320 --> 01:41:50,559 Speaker 1: a protected group. Are we talking about an actual crime? 1620 01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:54,760 Speaker 1: This is a talking point kind of like walls don't 1621 01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:56,720 Speaker 1: work that the moment you dig into it, you find 1622 01:41:56,760 --> 01:41:59,400 Speaker 1: out that's kind of a dumb talking point, isn't It 1623 01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:02,320 Speaker 1: doesn't really mean anything. Hate crimes are on the rise 1624 01:42:02,439 --> 01:42:06,160 Speaker 1: in the last thirty days, in the last year, sixty years, 1625 01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:10,200 Speaker 1: ten years. I've dug into hate crimes as listed by 1626 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:12,320 Speaker 1: the FBI, and first of all, a lot of what 1627 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:16,320 Speaker 1: are considered hate crimes aren't really crimes. A lot of them, 1628 01:42:16,360 --> 01:42:20,640 Speaker 1: about twenty or thirty percent, are in the category of 1629 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:26,160 Speaker 1: verbal harassment or some form of vandalism, which is a crime, 1630 01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:29,960 Speaker 1: but is not something that usually you know, it's not 1631 01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:32,439 Speaker 1: the property damage that people are so upset about. Usually 1632 01:42:32,439 --> 01:42:36,760 Speaker 1: it's the message. So this thing you hear from people better, well, 1633 01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:38,599 Speaker 1: hate crimes are on the rise. They said that hate 1634 01:42:38,640 --> 01:42:42,120 Speaker 1: crimes were on the rise during all of the Obama administration, 1635 01:42:42,439 --> 01:42:45,519 Speaker 1: that hate crimes are on the rise. After every major 1636 01:42:45,680 --> 01:42:48,120 Speaker 1: Islamic terrorist attack in this country. I keep hearing about 1637 01:42:48,120 --> 01:42:50,400 Speaker 1: a hate crimes are on the rise, and then I 1638 01:42:50,439 --> 01:42:53,280 Speaker 1: look at the statistics and it doesn't bear it out. 1639 01:42:54,320 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 1: Hate hoaxes, I would argue, are definitely on the rise. 1640 01:42:59,439 --> 01:43:05,360 Speaker 1: So there's that, Lisa buck in the vein of the 1641 01:43:05,439 --> 01:43:09,679 Speaker 1: transgenders in sports thing. I still wonder why the feminist 1642 01:43:09,760 --> 01:43:13,120 Speaker 1: left is forcing us to choose men over women. Isn't 1643 01:43:13,160 --> 01:43:17,360 Speaker 1: that completely counterintuitive to their ideology? Their identity politics will 1644 01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:20,200 Speaker 1: end up destroying them from the inside once they actually 1645 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:22,960 Speaker 1: think about what they are pushing. You can't have both 1646 01:43:22,960 --> 01:43:28,920 Speaker 1: female empowerment and then let men compete against them. Shields higher, Lisa, 1647 01:43:28,920 --> 01:43:30,840 Speaker 1: It's true. I think that the feminist movement in this 1648 01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:34,400 Speaker 1: country has gone so far left that it is willing 1649 01:43:34,479 --> 01:43:40,719 Speaker 1: to sell out women, which is an amazing state of affairs. 1650 01:43:40,760 --> 01:43:42,920 Speaker 1: But that's what's going on here, and what does it 1651 01:43:42,960 --> 01:43:46,879 Speaker 1: mean to be a woman if a man can, purely 1652 01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:51,120 Speaker 1: based on psychology, claim to be a woman, and everyone, 1653 01:43:51,760 --> 01:43:56,679 Speaker 1: under pain of social ostracism and maybe even government sanction, 1654 01:43:57,000 --> 01:43:59,840 Speaker 1: everyone is now supposed to say, yes, that's a woman. 1655 01:44:00,880 --> 01:44:04,120 Speaker 1: What does that really mean? What does that really tell us? 1656 01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:08,439 Speaker 1: The feminist left has no answers to this, They just 1657 01:44:08,479 --> 01:44:14,080 Speaker 1: simply don't Steve Rights, Heybuck love the show as usual. Steve, 1658 01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:17,640 Speaker 1: the show loves you as usual. Listening to the podcast 1659 01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:24,320 Speaker 1: from yesterday, especially on the Navratilova dismissal from the LGBTQ community, 1660 01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:28,120 Speaker 1: and just wanted to note that Martine competed versus Renee Richards, 1661 01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:32,120 Speaker 1: a transgendered male to female athlete who was allowed by 1662 01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:34,639 Speaker 1: the New York Supreme Court to compete in women's tennis 1663 01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:37,680 Speaker 1: played from nineteen seventy seven to eighty one with I 1664 01:44:37,720 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 1: believe no titles and coach navratilover to two Wimberland titles 1665 01:44:42,040 --> 01:44:45,720 Speaker 1: after eighty one. So maybe Martinez speaks with some confidence 1666 01:44:45,760 --> 01:44:51,040 Speaker 1: on the issue, just saying shields way high. Well, thank you, Steve. Now, 1667 01:44:51,640 --> 01:44:55,640 Speaker 1: there are some sports where brute strength and speed and 1668 01:44:55,680 --> 01:45:01,439 Speaker 1: physicality are going to be an enormous advantage. Tennis, it's 1669 01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:03,680 Speaker 1: an advantage but it's not quite the advantage that it 1670 01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:10,240 Speaker 1: would be in say, track and field, boxing, MMA, football. 1671 01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:14,000 Speaker 1: You know, you go down the list, basketball even you know, 1672 01:45:14,360 --> 01:45:18,800 Speaker 1: there's less physicality in tennis, and so you have to 1673 01:45:18,800 --> 01:45:21,240 Speaker 1: be at a certain skill level. You know, you could 1674 01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:25,360 Speaker 1: take the strongest man in the world, I mean, actually 1675 01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:27,040 Speaker 1: the strongest man in the world, like the guy who 1676 01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:30,320 Speaker 1: plays the mountain on Game of Thrones, and put him 1677 01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:33,040 Speaker 1: on a tennis court and a decent high school female 1678 01:45:33,040 --> 01:45:35,280 Speaker 1: tennis player. I'm sure we'll kick his butt, right because 1679 01:45:35,479 --> 01:45:38,799 Speaker 1: but if you put that same guy in an MMA 1680 01:45:38,880 --> 01:45:41,800 Speaker 1: ring with any woman in the world, he's going to 1681 01:45:41,880 --> 01:45:44,680 Speaker 1: win by a lot and it would be terrible and 1682 01:45:44,720 --> 01:45:47,120 Speaker 1: scary and the whole thing would be awful. But that's 1683 01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:49,679 Speaker 1: the difference I think that we need to keep in mind. 1684 01:45:49,720 --> 01:45:51,640 Speaker 1: Not all sports are the same when it comes to 1685 01:45:52,160 --> 01:45:57,120 Speaker 1: the strength and speed advantage. Next, here we have George, 1686 01:45:57,160 --> 01:46:01,280 Speaker 1: who writes buck so glad to see your smiling, rational, 1687 01:46:01,360 --> 01:46:05,919 Speaker 1: intelligent mug on the news panels Shields High. Well, George, 1688 01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:08,400 Speaker 1: thank you so much. Man. I'm not even sure what 1689 01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 1: panel I was on Reason Oh, that's right, I was 1690 01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:13,040 Speaker 1: on Fox on Shannon Bream Show. For those of you 1691 01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:15,080 Speaker 1: who like to know these things. Shannon Bream is one 1692 01:46:15,120 --> 01:46:17,120 Speaker 1: of the nicest people you'll ever meet. I don't really 1693 01:46:17,120 --> 01:46:19,880 Speaker 1: mean that, and I know that she probably is not 1694 01:46:19,920 --> 01:46:21,600 Speaker 1: going to hear this show, So this isn't I'm not 1695 01:46:21,680 --> 01:46:23,840 Speaker 1: kissing up. I just I like to tell you who's 1696 01:46:23,960 --> 01:46:26,000 Speaker 1: nice and who's mean in media, so that when you 1697 01:46:26,040 --> 01:46:28,799 Speaker 1: can make these choices, when you're flipping through the channels, 1698 01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:31,000 Speaker 1: you're like, not only is a good show, I know 1699 01:46:31,040 --> 01:46:33,599 Speaker 1: this is a nice person because Buck would never never 1700 01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:36,439 Speaker 1: tell me otherwise or never you know, lead me astray 1701 01:46:36,520 --> 01:46:40,880 Speaker 1: on this, Sean, Right, Buck, I love your tangential history, 1702 01:46:40,920 --> 01:46:43,640 Speaker 1: deep dives, and movie talk. I believe it to be 1703 01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:45,679 Speaker 1: beneficial to any audience that invest time with a talk 1704 01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:49,120 Speaker 1: show host to occasionally get a personality perspective outside the 1705 01:46:49,120 --> 01:46:53,519 Speaker 1: normal daily grind. Rush does it too, Oss, Thank you, Sean. Well, 1706 01:46:53,560 --> 01:46:57,680 Speaker 1: if Rush does it, the Wayne Gretzky of radio, the 1707 01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:01,360 Speaker 1: Lebron James of radio, perhaps to be the Zion. What's 1708 01:47:01,360 --> 01:47:03,760 Speaker 1: that guy's name he's supposed to be like the best, 1709 01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:06,240 Speaker 1: like the new Lebron, the Zion. I can't remember his 1710 01:47:06,360 --> 01:47:09,599 Speaker 1: last name, who apparently just hurt his foot, but anyway, Yeah, 1711 01:47:09,600 --> 01:47:11,600 Speaker 1: if Rush does it, what's got to be good. So 1712 01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:13,880 Speaker 1: I'm glad that you enjoy a little bit of a 1713 01:47:14,280 --> 01:47:17,680 Speaker 1: peek behind the personal curtain here. And I really do 1714 01:47:17,760 --> 01:47:21,120 Speaker 1: feel a sense of connection to everybody who listens to 1715 01:47:21,120 --> 01:47:22,920 Speaker 1: this show, like we know each other. This is why 1716 01:47:22,960 --> 01:47:27,680 Speaker 1: I can always tell when people who are familiar with me, 1717 01:47:27,840 --> 01:47:29,760 Speaker 1: this doesn't happen like it doesn't happen a lot of 1718 01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:32,080 Speaker 1: months of Oh I I walk into the mall and 1719 01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:34,320 Speaker 1: everybody says hello. No, it's not that at all. But 1720 01:47:34,360 --> 01:47:37,120 Speaker 1: people who sometimes watching a Fox or enough you used 1721 01:47:37,160 --> 01:47:39,200 Speaker 1: to watch enough CNN that they know who I am. 1722 01:47:39,320 --> 01:47:41,439 Speaker 1: They see me and they're like, oh, you know, there's 1723 01:47:41,439 --> 01:47:43,880 Speaker 1: that person I've seen on TV. When I see somebody 1724 01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:45,599 Speaker 1: from Team Buck and they see me on the street, 1725 01:47:46,280 --> 01:47:49,280 Speaker 1: we got a handshake, high five, or hug. It's one 1726 01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:51,439 Speaker 1: of the three. Always, you know, we gotta stop and 1727 01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:54,639 Speaker 1: talk and chat because it's it's just a different feeling 1728 01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:58,000 Speaker 1: when you really spend time with somebody on radio. I mean, 1729 01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:01,920 Speaker 1: radio is a tribe. Everybody who listens to this show is, 1730 01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,240 Speaker 1: at least for the time they're listening, I mean, they're 1731 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:07,040 Speaker 1: they're part of we are part of a tribe. And 1732 01:48:07,160 --> 01:48:10,679 Speaker 1: it's fun when you get to see people who are 1733 01:48:10,760 --> 01:48:13,200 Speaker 1: in that you know are in that mix. I can 1734 01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:16,920 Speaker 1: always tell. So that's going to be it for today 1735 01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:19,200 Speaker 1: in the Freedom Hut, my friends, we do have a 1736 01:48:19,240 --> 01:48:22,360 Speaker 1: fantastic show plan for you tomorrow. So with that, I 1737 01:48:22,479 --> 01:48:27,040 Speaker 1: bid you adieu and I wish you shield tie
