1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,559 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Wednesday edition Clay Travis Buck 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,719 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us 4 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: wherever you may be, across the nation or around the world. 5 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 1: Vindication in some way at long last for those of 6 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: us who have been arguing against mask for years. We 7 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: will discuss the Georgia four person of the Grand Jury, 8 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: that is after Donald Trump is an imbecile. We will 9 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: play some audio of that. Donald Trump on his way 10 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: to East Palestine, Ohio to survey the damage there, while 11 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden remains in Europe. Quite the contrast, a perfect metaphor, 12 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 1: one might say, for America first but Buck. Late last 13 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: night this went up on the New York Times website. 14 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: It is an opinion piece on their editorial page this 15 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: morning in the newspaper and the headline Brett Stevens is 16 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: the author the Mask Mandates did nothing, will any lessons 17 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: be learned? And I'm just going to read a first 18 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: couple of paragraphs. The most rigorous and comprehensive analysis of 19 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: scientific studies conducted on the efficacy of masks for reducing 20 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: the spread of respiratory illnesses including COVID nineteen was published 21 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: late last month. Its conclusion, said Tom Jefferson, the Oxford 22 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: epidemiologist who is its lead author, were unambiguous. There is 23 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: no evidence that they meaning masks make any difference, he 24 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: told Mary Anne Demass. Full stop, wait, hold on, what 25 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: about in ninety five masks as opposed to lower quality 26 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: surgical or cloth masks. Makes no difference, none of it, 27 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: said Jefferson. What about the studies that initially persuaded policymakers 28 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: to impose mask mandates? They were convinced by non randomized studies, 29 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: flawed observational studies. Now, Buck, we talked about this. This 30 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: is the Cochrane Study, a British nonprofit I'm reading from 31 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: the editorial, widely considered the gold standard for its review 32 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: of healthcare data. Seventy eight randomized controlled trials, six of 33 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: them during COVID six hundred and ten thousand participants in 34 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: multiple countries. No study or study of surveys ever perfect. 35 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: But there is no sign that masks made any difference 36 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: at all. So some of you out there maybe saying, 37 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: of course, I've been listening to you and Buck for 38 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: two years or longer. We know that this is true. 39 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: Why is this a story, buck? I think the New 40 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: York Times finally telling its audience that all of their 41 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: mask wearing was cosmetic theater that had no impact is 42 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: significant because they're finally acknowledged the truth three years after 43 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: many of us began to argue it. This is because 44 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: also there are no political consequences for it at this point, 45 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: the mid term has passed. Very few places, if any, 46 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: really still have mask mandates in place. There's i think 47 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 1: doctor's offices in New York City, some hospital systems still 48 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: do it, and you have people who are falling back 49 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: on the well doctors wear masks, So that's why we 50 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: should all wear masks. There's really cheer that should be 51 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: unpacked and should be addressed. The fact of the matter 52 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: is that the entire consensus health medical establishment got this wrong. 53 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: That's beyond any doubt. I actually think that Brett Stevens here, 54 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: who generally makes a living trashing Republicans for the amusement 55 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: of Democrats over at The New York Times, I think 56 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: that he goes too soft in the article because what 57 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: happens when you say mask man dates don't work. Then 58 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: the response from the true believers, the Fauciites out there 59 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: still who worship at their tiny altars to that tiny man. 60 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: They will say, oh, well, here's the thing. It's because 61 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: we didn't mask up properly that we have this problem. 62 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: It's not that it's not that masks don't work, is 63 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: that mandates don't work. Wrong, The masks don't work. If 64 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: you were doing this for any other medical intervention. If 65 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: this was a study for a pain killer or some 66 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: any kind of a drug, a sleep medication, and you 67 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: looked at this macro study of studies, which is the 68 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: gold standard that you could possibly find, the Cochrane study, 69 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: and it showed zero efficacy, you would be laughed at. 70 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: You would be laughed at on any other issue if 71 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: you said, well, we should still do this, It's still 72 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: worth a shot. But they will never admit this. And 73 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: I think that for a lot of us, it was 74 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: deeply discouraging about the Democrat Party, about humanity more broadly, 75 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: that they would not only go along with this, but 76 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: that they would be the enthusiastic enforcers of this. I 77 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: believe that one of the reasons we can't just let 78 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: this go is clay. If the next issue comes up 79 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: that same mindset of the Siberian prison guards in the 80 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: sky that we had with airline attendants. By the way, 81 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: and please don't send me an email saying but my 82 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: wife or my husbands and airline well, were they being 83 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: nice during this or not? If they were being nice 84 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: to people and not being some of them were maniacs. Okay. 85 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 1: I dealt with it personally. I'm not talking about the 86 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: people who are nice that we're saying, Look, other people 87 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: are going to get upset. Can you just do me 88 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: a favor? You know? Yeah, I get it. It's the 89 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: policy I had. I had a stewardess come up to 90 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: me and tell me that I was taking too long 91 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: when I was chewing, that I was taking too long 92 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: between bites to mask up. That is a psychopath. That 93 00:05:54,880 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 1: is a person who needs serious, serious psychological assistance. There 94 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 1: were millions and millions of them across the country, and 95 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: they until they are made to wallow in the reality 96 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: of their own foolishness here, they will mobilize again. They 97 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: will send people to the re education camp over the 98 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: climate crisis, clay, whatever the next thing, whatever the thing is, 99 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: they will go along with with the same zeal unless 100 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: they are made to recognize that the masks Stazi are 101 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: foolish beyond belief and should be ashamed of themselves. And 102 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: I can't even think of anything similar to masking that 103 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: has been more universally adopted and been less beneficial in 104 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: my entire life. And that is why I think, And 105 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: again I understand some people saying, well, we've known this 106 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: to be true for a long time. Why is this significant? 107 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: The New York Times at knowledging that masking didn't work 108 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: after all of the water carrying they did for the 109 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: petty tyrants, mandating masks is a big moment, and I 110 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: wonder in many ways what so many of their readers 111 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: are thinking. And I will say this Buck. They had 112 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: a editorial and I agree with you it doesn't go 113 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: far enough, but I mean, I'll take progress where we 114 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: can get it. They had an editorial recently defending JK. Rowling, 115 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: and I think it was in the Sunday edition of 116 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: The Times. I wonder whether some people are trying to 117 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: take back control of the opinion pages at the New 118 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: York Times, because they certainly lost them in the wake 119 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: of the Tom Cotton We should call out the National 120 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: Guard and they had a full fledged basically rebellion among 121 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: Times reporters that it's become so embarrassing the arguments that 122 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: they are making, which are not supported by any kind 123 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: of rational thought, that it's starting to even be impossible 124 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: for them. The Emperor has not worn the clothes for 125 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: long enough that even at the New York Times, they're 126 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: having to recognize that they have lost their way. Well, 127 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: there is a level at which leftist institutions, media platforms, 128 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, do become concerned not that the 129 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: truth is a casualty, but that their own reputations and 130 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: their own sense of self, their self esteem is at 131 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: risk because of the absurdity of the arguments that they 132 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: are forced to make. And you know, this is anybody 133 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: who is a dead ender at this point on COVID vaccines, 134 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: for example, anybody who is still pushing for masking, anybody 135 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: who's saying that men can get pregnant. I mean, these 136 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: are things that are impossible to defend as a rational, 137 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: reasonable person. So I think that if there's any retrenchment 138 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: going on, it's a function of they just simply can't 139 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: hold this territory any anymore at this moment in time. 140 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean they've given up. It doesn't mean they 141 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: don't want these things or they don't see value in 142 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: them over the long term. But I remember, you know, 143 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: I had PolitiFact write some article telling me that that 144 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: I was I was spreading disinformation. And this is supposed 145 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: to be a fact checking you know that probably them 146 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: was well known fact checking organization, and they did a 147 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: whole buck sexton spreading disinformation because I said that masks 148 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: masks outside are completely insane, which, by the way, I 149 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: mean that that was obvious from the very beginning, right, 150 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: I mean that was the whole thing was absurd from 151 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: day one. And I know you and I, while I 152 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: was on a honeymoon, I didn't I didn't want to engage. 153 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: I didn't want to get into it. But I haven't 154 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: forgotten about these libs that took shots at a few 155 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: of our shows. Um, you know, they took at a 156 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: few shows, including ours. They took shots at our friend, 157 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: the Great Steve Bannon over at War Room. They took 158 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: shots at some other some other folks for disinformation in 159 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: this realm on COVID. They should be sending The New 160 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: York Times should be sending an apology email yes and asking, hey, 161 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: how do you and Clay come up with such a stute, 162 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: forward leaning analysis without any medical background whatsoever. What's it 163 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: like to be brave and write? Please come in and 164 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: lecture our newsroom about that. Ali, You can confirm our 165 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: invitation to the New York Times writer who had a 166 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: front page business section article saying that this show was 167 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: the third biggest purveyor of misinformation in all of political media. 168 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: That guy has not responded, I presume, just like the 169 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: Brooking Institute. Yeah, the New York Times has not responded 170 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: to our offer. Buck. While you were gone, I made 171 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: the offer. I said, look, you can come on and 172 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: share with this audience all the misinformation that we have shared. 173 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: I want to see your formula. I want to see 174 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: your work. Brookings Institute said they couldn't find the time. 175 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: The New York Times author of the piece also mysteriously 176 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: unable to find the time. But I did want to 177 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: hit a couple of these flashbacks to give you a 178 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: sense of what you were being told and how much 179 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: you were being lectured. Here's Don Lemon, our good buddy, 180 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: who came back today and to apologize and return to 181 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: CNN saying that masks protect kids. This is from August 182 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one. Listen, I get that no one 183 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: wants to wear a mask. I get it, and I 184 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: get that a lot of parents don't want their kids 185 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: to have to wear one while they're in school. Okay, 186 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: but if it's going to protect children from getting infected, 187 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: isn't that what matters most, or what should matter most? 188 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: He's wrong. Here's Joe Biden buck back in August of 189 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one saying masks need to be worn in schools. 190 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: You know, there are a lot of people out there 191 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: trying to turn a public safety measure that is children 192 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: wearing masks in school so they can be safe, into 193 00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: a political dispute, and that this end about politics keeping 194 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: our children safe. And one more time from our buddy Fauci, 195 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: here is Fauci saying, masks certainly do something wrong. I 196 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: don't like mandating things. I don't like punishing people for 197 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: not doing something. I don't believe by the way that 198 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: he doesn't like I think he loves mandating things. Oh 199 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: of course, I think that he was a pathetic and 200 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: worthless bureaucrat for over forty years. Although the highest paid 201 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: federal government employee in the United States, while he was 202 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: still in that job. I think that this was his 203 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: crown his crowning achievement was to basically be in charge 204 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: of US policy, not just health policy, all policy for 205 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: a period of eighteen months or so. And he should 206 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: have been fired. And this is something that we're going 207 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: to be litigating, something we're gonna be talking about going 208 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: forward here, because when was all that stuff by Fauci 209 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: first being pushed Trump's biggest failure as president, As Fauci 210 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: fair to say, um, yes, I think I think so. 211 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: I also, I mean, look, I don't want to get 212 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: into a whole, you know, Trump thing, because we should 213 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: also talk about, to be fair, the big the big 214 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: wins that he had, and I don't want to be 215 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: overly negative. I think Trump overall did a great job. 216 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, Foucci should have been Foucci should 217 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: have been fired. Now they would say if we had 218 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: Trump here, he would say, but that would have been 219 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: so much worse. And I you know, how much worse 220 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: could it have been? Look who ended up being president 221 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one? Right, So I don't know only 222 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: that Trump would have been ugly in the short term. 223 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: In the long term, Trump would have been vindicated as 224 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: having been right. As he has been vindicated on many 225 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: issues being right, he has I think stopped weighing in 226 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: on how great operation warp speed. I haven't seen anything 227 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: in operation warp speed in a little while. Which remember 228 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: we were saying this, we were saying this coaching Maga 229 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: with love. We were saying, stop saying operation warp speed 230 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: saved you know, five hundred million lives or whatever, because 231 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: it didn't. So I think that's been dropped, and I 232 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: think that there's more of a focus now. But we'll 233 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: come we'll come back onto this and a whole lot 234 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: more here in just a second. Speaking of focus, sighting 235 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: it in my friends. For all the firearm inficionados out there, 236 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: you want to get really good without having to actually 237 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: even go to the range, without even leave your couch, 238 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: you can do it with the mantis x system, which 239 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: is a dry fire practice method I've got here at home. 240 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: It is so simple. The mantis x attaches to your 241 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: firearm like a weapon light, connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth. 242 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: You're getting real time feedback on how good your shot 243 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: is and how you can improve. There's no ammo all 244 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: electronic way of training is catching on all over the place. 245 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: In fact, mantis x is now being used by the 246 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: US military and special Forces, and I use it here 247 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: at home too. Another cool thing about mantis x it 248 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: provides you with drills and courses that you can do 249 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: at home. Of course, nothing really replaces a visit to 250 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: the range, but mantis x is so easy to use. 251 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: It makes those visits more productive and you can really 252 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: see an improvement in your skills. Mantis x is military 253 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: grade technology at a price that's totally affordable for you. 254 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: It's a must have for every going on or trust 255 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: me on this one. Start improving your shooting accuracy today. 256 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: Go to mantis x dot com. That's m a ntsx 257 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: dot com. They're here to shed light on the truth 258 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: every day. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. National divorce something 259 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: that got a lot of attention because Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor 260 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: Green tweeted out a couple of days ago the following 261 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: we need a national divorce. We need to separate by 262 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: red states in blue states and shrink the federal government. 263 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: Everyone I talked to says this from the sick and 264 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrats, 265 00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: traitorous America, last policies. We are done so the last 266 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: word was cough. It's like, where are we going with this? 267 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: We are done? So. This got a lot of people, 268 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: even on the right having of course, the left justis is, 269 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, there you know, it's looks secession and 270 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna break the country apart, and they're going crazy 271 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: over this. But look, that's that's that's not happening anytime soon. 272 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: I think they can calm down a little bit. It's 273 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: more of a philosophical discussion for most people. Some people, 274 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: I think, do believe that that we could be heading 275 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: in that in the direction over the long term, of 276 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: a greater degree of separation. I did also think this 277 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: was so interesting because if you're there is a sorting, 278 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: let's look at what is happening, right, Clay, and then 279 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: we can talk about where maybe this is going. There 280 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: has been a sorting that COVID in particular accelerated between 281 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: very very blue areas and then redder, you know, becoming 282 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: less blue, or rather becoming more blue, and red areas 283 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: becoming redder. The blue is getting bluer, the red's getting redder. Notably, 284 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: as we've talked about so many times, New York, and 285 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: it's environed, so it's to some extent, you know, New 286 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: Jersey and other places in New England moving and then 287 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: California in the Pacific Northwest moving to red states with 288 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:12,959 Speaker 1: lower taxes and that were more free at least during COVID. 289 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: The biggest single example of this is well, Florida is 290 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: the is the biggest in terms of population in floor 291 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: I believe, with about three hundred and fifty thousand according 292 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: to census data, as less than I saw. I think 293 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 1: the numbers higher than that now it's probably more like 294 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: a half a million to six hundred thousand. It's it's 295 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: actually eight hundred thousand. Since April of twenty the La 296 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: Times came out with some numbers, California has lost seven 297 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: hundred thousand in population, Florida has has gained eight hundred 298 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: thousand and bucked by the way. I wanted to mention 299 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: this because I saw this number. It ties in really 300 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,959 Speaker 1: well with what you're talking about. You know, how they 301 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: keep updating the Florida register rolls for how it breaks 302 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: down Democrat republication. When Ron de Scantis came into office, 303 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: there were two hundred and fifty seven thousand more Democrats 304 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: registered in Florida than Republicans. They just released the numbers 305 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: for February of twenty three. Republicans now have a four 306 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: hundred and seventeen thousand vote in terms of registered voters lead, 307 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: and that is flipped by six hundred and seventy five 308 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: thousand people just Democrat to Republican since December of eighteen. 309 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: So that kind of speaks to the blue bluer red 310 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: redder aspect, right, So that makes more so I was 311 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: gonna get six hundred thousand or five five or six 312 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: hundred thousand times, it's eight hundred thousand, which I totally 313 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: believe that down in Florida. That seems to be the reality. 314 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: If you look at the real estate market in Florida, 315 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: it's certainly reflected in the housing prices across the board. 316 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: But what's fascinating is when you have this data that 317 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: shows people are Americans are making choices in large numbers, 318 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: savoring one system over another. There is no there is 319 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: no counter movement of people from Texas going I hate 320 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: Texas so much, I'm moving to San Francisco. That does 321 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: not exist. So there isn't. This isn't just oh, there's 322 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: a sorting that's going both ways. What you have is 323 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: the areas that got too blue and too crazy have 324 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: had an outflow of people who just can't take it anymore. 325 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: That outflow is having massive financial ramifications on budgets. I 326 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: mean the California budget statewide. The deficit is billions and 327 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: billions of dollars. It's way more than even Gavin Newsom's 328 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: staff had assessed it would be. New York City, even 329 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: much more so than even New York State is going 330 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: to be having a whole lot of financial trouble because 331 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: of high earners who have left. And what I think 332 00:19:54,640 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: is so interesting is here is an MSNBC analyst talking 333 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: about how you know with desantists in Florida. He says, 334 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: it's all meth and alligators. Play nineteen? Can we play 335 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: clip nineteen? In my view, there are three states yet 336 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: you can't really run from. If you're trying to run 337 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: across America. You run from New York you're too crazy, 338 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: you're liberal. You run from California, you're too crazy, you're liberal. 339 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: You're trying to make sure I can't get classic straws. 340 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: If you run from Florida. It's all crystal meth in alligators, Right, 341 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: That's what people think. And I'm not saying that that's 342 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: the case. I'm saying those are sort of the national 343 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: reputations of those states. So when you see Ron de 344 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: Santis running and claiming that he's going to do for 345 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: America what he's done in Florida, it seems like that 346 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: be a problem. I mean, it's definitely not a problem 347 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: to the eight hundred thousand people who have said, sign 348 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 1: me up, I'm moving to Florida I want And of 349 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: those eight hundred thousand, how many of them have come 350 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,959 Speaker 1: from New York and California, the two Democrats stronghold states 351 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: a huge percentage. Yeah. What I see where I live 352 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: here in red state Tennessee is people have overwhelmingly moved 353 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: here from New York, California, and Chicago area of Illinois. 354 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: And when we talk about red getting redder, that's the 355 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: people who are moving in. And to me, that is 356 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: the signature question that cannot be answered by Gavin newsom 357 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: accolytes in California. If he did such a great job, 358 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 1: why has California lost population for the first time since 359 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: it became a state under Gavin Newsom's leadership. Think about 360 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: how crazy that is. California became a state, I believe 361 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: in eighteen fifty. From eighteen fifty to twenty nineteen, every 362 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: single year California added people. Twenty twenty was the first 363 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 1: year California lost population. Twenty one and twenty two all together, 364 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand people have left there, including Buck, Gavin 365 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: Newsom's own in laws who moved to Florida, and our 366 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: donors to RN de Santis. If there were truly a 367 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: case that it were safer, people would be flooding to 368 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 1: California and fleeing California and fleeing Florida. That's not what 369 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: we're seeing at all. Now. The big challenge to me 370 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 1: on the national divorce is one move to red states 371 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: and make them redder. That's the way that you can 372 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: get a default version of this. That's what people are 373 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: doing now as they realize they can work remotely many 374 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: different places. They're still even in red states. However, are 375 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: many blue islands. Nashville, Memphis in my state, for instance, 376 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: are going to continue to vote blue. But the state 377 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: at large, it's as red as red can get. I 378 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: want as many people who are going to vote red 379 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: to move here. One final thought, one of my favorite stats. 380 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: More people voted for Donald Trump in California in twenty 381 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: twenty than in Texas, and a lot of your minds 382 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: are blown every time you hear that. Obviously, that's partly 383 00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: a function of California having so many people, but ardless 384 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 1: of which direction you go, there are still a lot 385 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: of people left behind who are blue or red in 386 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: states that would otherwise have substantial majorities in the other direction. 387 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: I also think it's worth noting that when you and 388 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: I were growing up, which I guess I'm admitting was 389 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: around the same time. I like to say it was 390 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: decades apart, but no, you know, when I was in 391 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: junior high and Clay was in high school, California in 392 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 1: the nineties in America was the ultimate americ injury. You know. 393 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: It was reflected in all of our Yeah, Hollywood was 394 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: out there, so that was part of this, but in 395 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: our movies, our entertainment, I mean, California was just the 396 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: place where people from all across the country wanted to 397 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: go to the fact that Democrats in let's call it 398 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: two generations, maybe less a generation, have flipped that around. 399 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: So that California is now the place where if you're 400 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: born and grew up there, you're fleeing from there. Just 401 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: goes to show you that state government matters. And that's 402 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: what really saw during COVID. It used to be I 403 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: think everyone just said, oh, and the president of the 404 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: federal government, that's what matters to me. State government matters, 405 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: local government matters, your school board matters. To your point, 406 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: buck on, California as like this promised land. I had 407 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: never been to California until I was in college. We 408 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: went on a spring break trip in like two thousand 409 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: and two or something like that to California to San Francisco, 410 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: and I was like, this place is amazing. I can't believe. 411 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: We went down to the Redwoods, or up to the Redwoods, 412 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: the Murra Forest, I think, went to the beach, like 413 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 1: checked out all of San Francisco. I was like, this 414 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: place is flat out amazing. One of my best friends 415 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: got married in San Clemente, California in two thousand and five. 416 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: My wife had never been to California, and we took 417 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: the PC and drove all the way down from San 418 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: Francisco to Orange County, and I was like, my goodness, 419 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 1: This is one of the most beautiful, unbelievable places is 420 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: in the entire world. It speaks to how bad Democrat 421 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: leadership is that basically so many people would be willing 422 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: to leave America's Garden of Eden because that is in 423 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: many ways what the natural topography geography of California is. Look. 424 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: I think it's heartbreaking for a lot of New Yorkers 425 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: who still see New York as you know, if you're 426 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: a New Yorker, you always think New York is the 427 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: greatest city in America and the greatest city in the world. 428 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: People have left. I know a lot of people who 429 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: have said that maybe they'll come back in five years 430 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: or ten years, but they don't. They don't want to 431 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 1: see how this plays out while the lunatic left continues 432 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: to run the show there. So we'll come back to this. 433 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: By the way, big update Clay from Andrea Mitchell. Oh oh, 434 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: we got something for you already. We're gonna we're gonna 435 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: bring that to you here in just a second.

I mean, these are men and women who 440 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: are choosing to help save the lives of unborn babies, 441 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 1: and they're going above and beyond. These are clinics that 442 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: welcome pregnant mothers and offer them a chance to meet 443 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: their unborn child through an ultrasound experience. That precious experience 444 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: allows them to hear the heartbeat and see their child 445 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: growing within them. I mean, you can just imagine it's 446 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: a life changing, heartfelt moment, that godly connection between mother 447 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 1: and child. It so often leads to that mother choosing 448 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: to bring her unborn baby into this world. Now. Preborn 449 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,120 Speaker 1: receives no government funding. There's no huge apparatus behind it. 450 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 1: It relies on you, the pro life community. They depend 451 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,959 Speaker 1: on you and me for financial support. Preborn's team has 452 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: rescued over two hundred thousand babies in this way and 453 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: they don't stop there. They provide love, support and counseling 454 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: for up to two years for mothers who give life 455 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: to their babies four free.

What's 468 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: what's the Churchill quote? Right? Democracy is the worst form 469 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: of government except for all the other ones that have 470 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: been tried. Yeah, that's kind of how I feel about 471 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: the whole jury of our peer system sometimes, right, it's 472 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: it's better than the alternative. Right, you don't want some bureaucrat. 473 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: Other people ken actually ask for a bench trial, but 474 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: you generally don't want some bureaucrats, some man or woman 475 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 1: of the state to just determine your fate, or have 476 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 1: government employees who do receive their paycheck from the apparatus 477 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: from the system. So we got peers. We got people 478 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: right jury duty? What was it? But do you remember 479 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: the last time you did jury duty? Clay? I do? 480 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: What about you? Do you remember? Yeah? I was like 481 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: two thousand. Actually, I don't want to say it on 482 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: air because I don't want to come after me. It's 483 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: been a while, it's been a while. I had to 484 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: do it, and I got nervous because it was a 485 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: trial that might take a couple of weeks, and I, 486 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: first of all, I'm an attorney, so I thought I 487 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: would get knocked out just based off being an attorney. 488 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: And then I got all the way too seated on 489 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: the jury panel. And then one of the attorneys said, 490 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,239 Speaker 1: you know what, I really like listening to this when 491 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: I was doing sports talk radio locally in Nashville, so 492 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 1: it's probably been like years ago. The guy one of 493 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: the juries, one of the attorneys, like, I really like 494 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: listening to mister Travis on his radio show, so I'm 495 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 1: just gonna strike him. And so I got out. That 496 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: was when I was doing sports talk radio, based on 497 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: based on that fact, otherwise I would have been seated 498 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: potentially for weeks. And for what we do, it's actually 499 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,719 Speaker 1: noticeable when we don't go to our job. So I've 500 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: always been afraid of just like I don't want to 501 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: miss the radio show for two weeks because I'm sitting 502 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: on a jury trial, right, So the jury system that 503 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: we have is Look, our system is imperfect. But if 504 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: you even no matter what one may think of Andrew 505 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: Tate and his possible innocence or guilt of the charges 506 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: in Romania, remember Andrew Tate was just a few months 507 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: ago on Tucker's show, the most googled man in the world, 508 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: I think for a couple of months. I mean that 509 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: was a real statistic. You know, they've just extended his 510 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: pre trialed attention another thirty days and there may not 511 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: even be a trial. There have for people who don't know, like, 512 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: this is why you got to be super careful when 513 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: you're out of the country, because as much as you 514 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: might not like our justice system, my goodness, look out 515 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: if you're elsewhere. I do think there's it's quite a 516 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: coincidence that the charges that have come against mister Tate 517 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: have come when they have, and against his brother. Um 518 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: that's not I don't know, but no one knows because 519 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: no charges have Actually, they could hold you in Romania 520 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: for six months before you even get to go before 521 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: a judge and say, you know, I'm guilty, You're not guilt. 522 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: Six months they now, I know a lot of you 523 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: are saying, hey, Buck, what about the J six defendants. Yeah, yeah, 524 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: we got problems with our we got problems with our system. Two. Um. 525 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: We're bringing all this up though, because it is quite 526 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: a reminder of what we are, what we're dealing with. 527 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: Sometimes here with the various legal efforts and I would 528 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: argue extra legal and abusive efforts to try to get 529 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. I mean they're doing it is actually hard. 530 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: We'd do this for a living. And to keep up 531 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: with all the different there was the non criminal civil 532 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: trial against the Trump organization in New York. There was 533 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: the Russia collusion Muller probe. There's now, you know Ejeene 534 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: Carroll saying that Trump sexually assaulted her thirty five years 535 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: ago and she's going to sue. I mean, to keep 536 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: up with all of these, none of them ever go anywhere, 537 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: None of them ever. I mean the only thing that 538 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: they would say is the Trump organization paid like a 539 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: million dollars fine, which for an organization of that size 540 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: is the equivalent of a parking ticket. There's also this 541 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: Georgia grand jury proceeding. And this is how Seana reports 542 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: on this because they have a a four person. Can't 543 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: say foreman anymore, the four person and just give a 544 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,719 Speaker 1: time it will be a four they. You see it 545 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: wasn't it. This singer recently referred to fisher they Sam 546 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: instead of fishermen. You know what I'm talking about Sam. 547 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: I didn't even see that story. Oh yes, he wants 548 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: to be called a fisher they not a fisherman because 549 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: he likes to go fishing. Anyway. Four person I digress 550 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: of the Atlanta based grand jury investigating Donald Trump for 551 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: attempts to overturn the twenty twenty election, effectively trying to 552 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: criminalize First Amendment protected speech legal theories. I mean, the 553 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: whole thing is nuts. This is the four person who 554 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: has been doing a media tour. Here she play sixteen first. 555 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: This is the person who is running the jury basically 556 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: of this possible criminal indictment of Donald Trump. I wanted 557 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: to hear from the former president, but honestly, I kind 558 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: of wanted to subpoena the former president because I got 559 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: to swear everybody in and so I thought it'd be 560 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: really cool to get sixty seconds with President Trump of 561 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: me looking at him and being like, do you solemnly 562 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: swear I'm getting to swear him in? I just I 563 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: kind of thought that would be an awesome boment the 564 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: American jury system on display. Folks. Well, and I think 565 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: as ridiculous as that audio sounds, her squirrelly movements while 566 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: she's giving it, and the fact that she's doing interviews 567 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: for MSNBC and CNN and working her way across the 568 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: entire left wing media ecosystem. She is, according to people 569 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: who have tracked down her Pinterest page, very obsessed with 570 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: witchcraft and sometimes buck And I was saying this off air, 571 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: I think Trump is benefits from his foes because they 572 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: are such poor representations, even of the anti Trump movement, 573 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: that a lot of people just roll their eyes. But 574 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: the bigger picture here is you have got these democrat jurisdictions. 575 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: And for people out there who don't understand this, when 576 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: we were when I was in law school back in 577 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: the day, and then when I started practicing law, forum 578 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: shopping is a big deal. It's not discussed that much 579 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: in the general public. But what I mean by that 580 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: is when you decide where to file a lawsuit. Very often, 581 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: astute lawyers will say, I want to file in this 582 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: state or this jurisdiction because the legal climate favors me, 583 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: and therefore that's why they call it forum shopping. It's 584 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:24,479 Speaker 1: like you're looking around at all these different potential localities. So, Buck, 585 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,760 Speaker 1: when I practice law in the Caribbean, if you could, 586 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: I was in the US Virgin Islands. For people who 587 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: don't know, I love the way this is one of 588 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: my favorite Clay facts that you moved to the Caribbean 589 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: and you were a lawyer, and you didn't pitch this 590 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: as a screenplay to ABC or something. You know. I 591 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: was a lawyer in the biggest law firm in the 592 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: United States, Virgin Islands, thirteen attorneys. When I graduate from 593 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt Law School, I am still licensed. Unless they've pulled 594 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: my license and I haven't heard about it. In the US, 595 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 1: I'm still paying for the license the US Virgin Islands 596 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: and Tennessee's pass the bar in both those jurisdictions. But Buck, 597 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: I took the US Bar Exam the Virgin Islands Bar 598 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: Exam in a courtroom basically overlooking the Bay in Saint Thomas. 599 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 1: I practiced in this law firm for a couple of years, 600 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,479 Speaker 1: everybody who could sue in the US Virgin Islands would, 601 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: And I'll give you an example. American Airlines flew in. 602 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 1: They were one of our clients. If you ever got 603 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: hit by a beverage cart, or you ever slipped on 604 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 1: a airplane, or you ever had you got the food 605 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 1: was too hot, you sued. If you could file a 606 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: negligence complaint against American Airlines, you filed it in the 607 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 1: US Virgin Islands. Average juror eighth grade education population of 608 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: the US Virgin Islands only around one hundred thousand people. 609 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: It was considered to be a plane offs paradise, and 610 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: so you wanted to get in front of a Virgin 611 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,839 Speaker 1: Islands jury jury because they would take go off on 612 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: these state side because whether you lived in the island 613 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 1: or off island was a big deal. They'd go off 614 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: on these stateside corporations. So every planeiff's lawyer worth his 615 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: or her salt would try to file in the US 616 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: Virgin Islands because you've got a beneficial court hearing that 617 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: taken outside of the plane off law firm is exactly 618 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: what is going on with Donald Trump. DC is basically 619 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: a rigged jury pool. Fulton County in Atlanta is basically 620 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: a rigged jury pool. They can get indictments against Republicans 621 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: affiliated with Donald Trump and Steve Bannon already went through 622 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 1: this no matter what basically the evidence is, because they 623 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: already have a jury pool that is convinced that the 624 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: people they're investigating or evil. And here is again this 625 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: jury four person, Emily Cores, who is speaking out about 626 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,399 Speaker 1: what the grand jury has done here, which you're also 627 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: not really supposed to do, but they're just putting her 628 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: on TV anyway, Play fifteen. It's not a short list, 629 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: so we're talking about more than a dozen people. I 630 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: would say that, yes, are these recognizable names, names that 631 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:09,439 Speaker 1: people would know. There are certainly names that you would recognize. Yes, 632 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,720 Speaker 1: I don't think that there are any giant plot twists coming. 633 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: I don't think there are any giant plot twists coming, 634 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: as in Donald Trump is not going to prison over 635 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 1: the jury or rather over the election Georgia thing. And 636 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 1: yet again I just worry that are First of all, 637 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: the legal abuse is obvious here. It's a form of 638 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: lawfare that has been waged against Donald Trump. Stretching back 639 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 1: now for years, for as long as he's been in 640 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: public office or trying to be in public office. It's 641 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: the abuse of a legal system, really, the destruction I 642 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 1: think of clear legal principles. Remember they even seized his 643 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 1: lawyers communications at one point when it was they took 644 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: his passport. Yeah, I mean, the stuff that they have 645 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: done to Donald Trump has really debased our And by 646 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: the way, that was why I brought up the TADE issue. 647 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: You've got an American who is being held for months 648 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: on end without any due process. There's no due process. 649 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: So whether you think he's guilty or not, and there's 650 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, people who are arguing certainly that it seems 651 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: very suspicious the way the charges have been brought. There's 652 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: no due process. Donald Trump has suffered process attacks of 653 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: all kinds. And eventually, what you realize is, even though 654 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 1: they're not going to get an indictment, even though they're 655 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 1: not going to certainly get a prison sentence, Clay, the 656 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: process is the punishment. This is what's so unfortunate. They've 657 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: just used this all along to just try to wrong 658 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: foot Trump, to harass him. And people say, oh, buck, 659 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 1: it's four d chess, he can handle it all. Well, 660 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 1: what about the people that were in his White House 661 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: who had to pay for their own lawyers. What about 662 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: the twenty five year old staff or who's terrified of 663 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, Muller trying to entrap them, you know, talk 664 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: to George Poppadopolis, talked to Carter Page about you know, yeah, 665 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 1: Trump can handle it, but it's more than just Trump 666 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 1: that they're going after as well. Yeah, and I think 667 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: they're going to indict him basically is what she was 668 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: ducking around there. You have a Fulton County prosecutor who 669 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 1: has to make this, So you think they are You 670 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: think they are going to indite him. I think I 671 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 1: think that in Georgia they're going to indict him. Wow. 672 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: But now it's gonna be a violation I believe of 673 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: state law. I don't know what the punishments are gonna be. 674 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a total clown show. I 675 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: just I mean, based on what this jury four person 676 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 1: has been saying in the interviews, I think they'll find 677 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: some sort of way to indict Trump over this. And 678 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 1: again politically, the Georgia, Fulton County DA, again Atlanta. For 679 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,760 Speaker 1: people out there who are not familiar with the state, 680 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 1: she wins, right, she's going to her she's going to 681 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: be the next mayor of Atlanta, or she's gonna run 682 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: for an office. Yeah. You usually, in a very very 683 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: high profile, politically charged case, a secutor would not want 684 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: to bring it unless it was overwhelming and it was 685 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: very clear and a slam dunk situation. Because you lose 686 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: a really high profile political case, it looks bad for you. 687 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: Not the case. To your point here, just bringing the indictment, 688 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: you're a hero. Just going forward. Just the harassment itself 689 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: of Trump becomes the end goal, and hey, maybe they 690 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: can get the uh, you know, the grand prize at 691 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: the end of an actual guilty verdict from some loop. 692 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you told me you saw this jury jury, 693 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 1: four persons grand jury. She's not sitting on an actual 694 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: jury that would decide anyone's fate where, you know, in 695 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: terms of innocence or guilt. But kind of a kind 696 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 1: of a strange pinteress. Pages start going around out there, 697 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: and she is either extremely interested in witchcraft or what 698 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 1: do they call him, a wicked wicken? Yes, yes, um, 699 00:40:54,760 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: And so again she wants Trump, that grand jury wants Trump. 700 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: I think that they are going to indict Trump. I 701 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 1: don't think the dj is, but I think they will 702 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 1: for some state law violation inside of inside of Georgia. 703 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 1: I think that this DA will do it because I 704 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: think she wins no matter what you called it, on 705 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: the Special Council appointment. But I also think now we've 706 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: seen that Special Council about Biden and the documents, sham nothing, 707 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 1: no one cares, nothing happens. I Marritt Garland is going 708 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: to come out and say a pox on both their 709 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 1: houses and then that I really think that's gonna vanish. Now. 710 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: Julie Kelly was on with US Monday and she said 711 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: she still thinks Trump's gonna get indicted for January sixth 712 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: by Jack Smith. So we'll see. I tend to think 713 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: that this Georgia thing is going to be what what. 714 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: I just want to point something out, Clay before we 715 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: move on to some other topics. Here, we left somebody 716 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 1: off the presidential the presidential ledger, we've left we left 717 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 1: a couple of people off. Mary Ann Williamson, she's gonna 718 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 1: run evidently as a Democrat. Yes, buddy, our buddy, Michael Bolton. 719 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: Isn't he officially announced? I know it's John Bolton but 720 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,760 Speaker 1: I prefer to call it Michael Bolton because you celebrate 721 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: his whole catalog. Yes, he is also running, So there's 722 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 1: a few other names that we didn't even give the 723 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: dignity of including in that one. I just saw that 724 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: flash up on the screen. Michael Bolton will do an 725 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: incredible job both playing his catalog and also running for president. 726 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: Got a great mustache. No shortage of chaos and change 727 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: in our world. We're here to make sense of it 728 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: every day with you, no matter what the next disruption is, 729 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,319 Speaker 1: whether it's weather, labor strike, something that causes supply chain 730 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: issues at supermarkets. Still can't find baby formula? How many 731 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: of you out there have tried to go out and 732 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: find baby formula back in the day, toilet paper, basically 733 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: anything on the shelves. A lot of snow coming across 734 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: the Midwest and the Pacific right now. Maybe you're not 735 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: gonna be able to get out to the grocery store. 736 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: Maybe you lose power, Maybe there's just issues going on 737 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,240 Speaker 1: in your life. You've probably got health insurance, you probably 738 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 1: got car insurance, you probably have life insurance. You have 739 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 1: insurance for your home, certainly if you own it. What 740 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,720 Speaker 1: about food insurance.

Clay Travis and buck 756 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 1: Sexton chuck up a win for Team Reality. Welcome back 757 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,720 Speaker 1: in Play Travis buck Sexton show. We were just talking 758 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: about Andrea Mitchell and her false questioning of lorda Well 759 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 1: was actually based on Florida Governor Ron De Santas, but 760 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 1: she was questioning Kamala Harris, and this is her response 761 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: to the why that she spread in her question. I 762 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 1: haven't even heard this yet. Let's listen. In my interview 763 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,840 Speaker 1: last Friday with Vice President Harris, I was imprecise in 764 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: summarizing Governor to Santas's position about teaching slavery in schools. 765 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 1: Governor de Santas is not opposed to teaching the fact 766 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 1: of slavery in schools, but he has opposed the teaching 767 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: of an African American studies curriculum, as well as the 768 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 1: use of some authors and source materials that historians and 769 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: teachers say makes it all but impossible for students to 770 00:44:56,280 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: understand the broader historic and political context hind slavery and 771 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 1: It's aftermath. In the years since, he didn't think that 772 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: an ap high school course in African American Studies should 773 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:12,279 Speaker 1: be focused on CRT and queer theory. That was the 774 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 1: actual objection. Andrea Mitchell is still whining because she said, 775 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: do we have that audio? It's not enough to say 776 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,320 Speaker 1: I was imprecise. Can we play the audio of her again? 777 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,439 Speaker 1: She specifically says that you can't teach Slavery and It's 778 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 1: Aftermath in Florida, which is a flagrant lie. Let's play 779 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: that audio. I think Governor Rhnda Santis not know a 780 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,359 Speaker 1: black history and the black experience when he says that 781 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,919 Speaker 1: slavery and the aftermath of slavery should not be taught 782 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 1: to Florida school children. I mean, this is crazy. So 783 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 1: I have a theory, Clay. It's always great to try 784 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: out my theories to you in real time with you know, 785 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: a couple of million people listening. But here's my theory. 786 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 1: I think that because you know, you just read the 787 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: Press secretary r for Rhonda santist and his response to 788 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 1: this if you what half an hour ago, I think 789 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: that there's a recognition that the old days where Republicans 790 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 1: would just show up and get punched in the face 791 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 1: by the media, that's not going to work specifically with 792 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: Ronda Santis, meaning he's perfectly comfortable just not playing their game. 793 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: Now Trump, It's very interesting. Trump actually liked to go 794 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: on offense against the media and was super effective in 795 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:35,320 Speaker 1: using the fake news to his benefit in the twenty 796 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,399 Speaker 1: sixteen election cycle. I think later on in his presidency, though, 797 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 1: I would have said, I think he sat down with 798 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: the New York Times a few too many times Okay. 799 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 1: I do think that that's and I believe that people 800 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 1: that are ardent Trump supporters would agree with that when 801 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: they see that it's just, you know, he wasn't outsmarting 802 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 1: what's her name, Maggie Haberman, she was just running hit 803 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 1: pieces on him day in a day out. I think 804 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 1: that De Santis and even some other Republicans, they're not 805 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: going to let this game be played the way it 806 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 1: used to be. Where where oh, NBC News, You'll lie 807 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: about me and then I'm gonna give you an interview 808 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 1: a week later. I don't think so, because Democrats don't 809 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 1: do that. By the way, Remember they wouldn't let Fox 810 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,760 Speaker 1: News host a Democrat debate. They wouldn't let Fox News 811 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 1: interview Joe Biden before the president before the Super Bowl, 812 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,000 Speaker 1: as is usually the case with the president. By the way, 813 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 1: Jeremy Redfern at the Santist campaign already responding once again. 814 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: Andrea Mitchell is imprecise in her description because she relies 815 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 1: on unnamed historians and teachers. Florida's statute requires the teaching 816 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 1: of slavery and its aftermath. We just know that queer 817 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:48,399 Speaker 1: studies has nothing to do with Jim Crowe. Good response there, 818 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 1: I would also say this, you guys out there listening, No, 819 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 1: I love Carry Lake. I think Carry Lake is a 820 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 1: stud campaigner. What she did is something that I've been 821 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 1: doing for years, and I would encourage every Republican politician 822 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 1: to do it. And this would include Donald Trump. Any 823 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 1: interview that you do, put out the full transcript of 824 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: the interview. Don't allow yourself to talk to a reporter 825 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,399 Speaker 1: for thirty forty five minutes an hour and have them 826 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: pull three sentences out of that interview and craft a 827 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: story based on it. If I talk to a reporter 828 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: for a story, I want the full transcript of my 829 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: story recorded by my team, which is what I do 830 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 1: at out kick, so that we can post the full transcript. 831 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,359 Speaker 1: You guys know, I talk to you every day for 832 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 1: three hours. I'm not running from any of any of 833 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 1: my opinions, but I don't want somebody to talk to 834 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 1: me for thirty minutes or an hour and then be 835 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: able to craft their version of what I said. I 836 00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 1: want the audience to be able to see exactly what 837 00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: I said, and I would encourage every Republican politician to 838 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 1: adopt that as well. Speaking of Trump, Clay he has 839 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:08,400 Speaker 1: I think had a real moment here, making a strong 840 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 1: move going out to East Palestine, Ohio to visit with 841 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:19,359 Speaker 1: that town the aftermath of that chemical train derailment disaster. 842 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 1: He's getting there before Mayor Pete. He's going to be 843 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 1: showing solidarity with the people of Ohio affected by this. 844 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:29,720 Speaker 1: I think it's a strong move. I think we should 845 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,799 Speaker 1: talk about just what the implications of this are and 846 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 1: also where's the Biden administration. Well, Joe's tripping going up 847 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 1: the stairs, but yes, we're going to talk about East Palestine. 848 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: Trump on his way there right now, and what the 849 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 1: impact is of the Midwest as we all start to 850 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:48,840 Speaker 1: turn towards next year and the next election.
