Speaker 1: The Threat is a new hit podcast from Azzi Media
Speaker 1: that explores history surprising connections in order to discover how
Speaker 1: one thing leads to another, like how John Lennon's murder
Speaker 1: connects all the way back to communist leader Vladimir Lenin.
Speaker 1: Get it on iHeart Radio or wherever you listen. You
Speaker 1: are entering the Freedom Hunt. It's a glorious week to
Speaker 1: be an American. My friends. The Libs are at def
Speaker 1: Con one, full on panic mode because a Supreme Court
Speaker 1: vacancy has been announced, Justice Kennedy will retire. This means
Speaker 1: it will be an all out political throwdown to see
Speaker 1: who will replace him. Coming on the heels of a
Speaker 1: very good week for conservatives at the Supreme Court and
Speaker 1: an overall fantastic week for President Trump, looks like the
Speaker 1: Libs are on their back heels. We'll talk about that
Speaker 1: and what's coming next next on The buck Sexton Show.
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or
Speaker 1: mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.
Speaker 1: Make no mistake American great, You're a great American Again.
Speaker 1: The buck Sexton Show begins. Analyst Kennedy is a swing boater,
Speaker 1: which side sometimes with the Democrats. So his vote is
Speaker 1: really important if you're on the left or if you're
Speaker 1: in the middle, But it terrifies people in the middle
Speaker 1: and on the left because it has the potential to
Speaker 1: swing the Court in a different direction. Some friends say
Speaker 1: he's been thinking about stepping down, and if he does,
Speaker 1: that would allow President Trump to make the courts solidly
Speaker 1: conservative for decades. If he decides to retire, and there
Speaker 1: are signs that he would, it would be a war
Speaker 1: for this court like nothing seen in the past thirty years.
Speaker 1: Since the nomination of Robert Bourke was defeated and Justice
Speaker 1: Kennedy took his seat, everything changes in Washington. If he
Speaker 1: retires would be just seismically. He a moderate conservative, So
Speaker 1: if he goes, that's gonna get President Trump a massive
Speaker 1: opportunity to move the court further to the right for generations,
Speaker 1: and Democrats would basically be powerless to stop it. The
Speaker 1: Democrats have to fight this tooth and now they have
Speaker 1: to use every process opportunity they have to stop this
Speaker 1: until next year we have a new center. Are you
Speaker 1: guys ready to maybe rip up some of the rules
Speaker 1: that have limited Democrats. Democrats would digging fork here. You
Speaker 1: do everything they conceivably could do to block this nomination,
Speaker 1: any nomination for going forward. It's time for Democrats to
Speaker 1: throw down. We need to play by street rules. I
Speaker 1: think this is gonna be the fight of the century.
Speaker 1: I think the Democrats have to say no way, non
Speaker 1: pass Sario, no one passes this line. I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna be almost like Spanish Civil war stuff. Oh man,
Speaker 1: lives are terrified. Welcome to the buck Sex and show
Speaker 1: everybody it has been such a good week. You know.
Speaker 1: They they thought they have the administration cornered with this
Speaker 1: whole parental separation at the border thing. They they thought
Speaker 1: they'd be able to just hammer Trump on that going
Speaker 1: into the fourth or July holiday and then heading into
Speaker 1: the recess. And we all we hear about is you know,
Speaker 1: Oh Trump is so mean, He's so evil, He's the worst.
Speaker 1: We'll guess what. It has been quite a week for
Speaker 1: this administration for conservatism, and as I like to say,
Speaker 1: for America, it's a good thing, my friends, very very
Speaker 1: good thing. Indeed, you had this big decision come down
Speaker 1: today that, to borrow from the words of the left,
Speaker 1: gutted public sector unions or will gut in time public
Speaker 1: sector Unions, which I think is long overdue, very strong decision.
Speaker 1: They're very much a worthwhile deep dive for us coming
Speaker 1: up on on some of those, uh, some of that,
Speaker 1: some of what came from from all of it um.
Speaker 1: And now we also have, uh, the Kennedy battle Royal
Speaker 1: that has expected you had big things happening today. You know,
Speaker 1: no one's even paying attention. I think, isn't Bolton meeting
Speaker 1: with the Russians, you know, to talk about US Russia policy.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's other stuff that's going on that's
Speaker 1: not even on the radar right now because of what's
Speaker 1: happened at Supreme Court this week and and the panic
Speaker 1: over Kennedy. That what what is by the way, what
Speaker 1: is the strategy the Democrats have for trying to win
Speaker 1: in the mid terms. They had they had they had
Speaker 1: one thing they were gonna try to They're hoping for
Speaker 1: depressed Republican turn out and that they could get the
Speaker 1: base fired up for Democrats in enough places to take
Speaker 1: at least the House. And now now that Republicans, by
Speaker 1: the way, no conservative, no conservative can look at what's
Speaker 1: going on right now and say, yeah, you know what,
Speaker 1: I don't like Trump still I'm still anti Trump. Oh really,
Speaker 1: you're gonna stay home with the Court at steak after
Speaker 1: what Trump gave us with Gorset, Now you're going to
Speaker 1: decide to be Mr. Principal or Ms Principal and allow
Speaker 1: the Democrats to take control and put some quote consensus candidate.
Speaker 1: So here's the thing, folks, I can tell you from
Speaker 1: the history of the Court and the way that it
Speaker 1: has always gone, the left always stays left, just like
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party doesn't doesn't eat its own. They they
Speaker 1: have a unified front when it comes to the acquisition
Speaker 1: of power. I mean, they will squabble among themselves, but
Speaker 1: they always are unified against the enemy, which they view
Speaker 1: as the Republicans. Centrist jurists are people that tend to
Speaker 1: be appointed by Republican presidents and then go against the right.
Speaker 1: But they they'll call them centrists right, um, and but
Speaker 1: but the left on the left, you got the Ginsburg's,
Speaker 1: the suitors, uh, the Soda Mayors, by the way, the
Speaker 1: worst justice on the Supreme Court. Right now, look Kagan,
Speaker 1: I of credit where it's due. You read Kagan, and
Speaker 1: you read her opinions. You say to yourself, all right,
Speaker 1: this lady, you know she's she's making an argument. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna tear apart her argument on the whole
Speaker 1: public sector union things. A little silly, little silly Elena,
Speaker 1: come on, but so do my Your stuff is just
Speaker 1: it's like I'm reading out of the teleprompter at MSNBC.
Speaker 1: It's just, you know, I hate this and I liked
Speaker 1: this other thing. So the law is whatever gives me
Speaker 1: the thing that I like. It's like you're on the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court, Justice Sodomoyer. Come on, you can do better
Speaker 1: than that. It's not even making arguments. He's just just
Speaker 1: putting words to emotions and to preferred political positions. But this, this,
Speaker 1: this creates a whole different set of calculations for the
Speaker 1: mid terms. And I think that you're going to see
Speaker 1: uh this through that they should have been prepared for
Speaker 1: this a little bit. But don't be surprised if we
Speaker 1: are to find out that turn up the d n
Speaker 1: C is not really it wasn't wasn't really ready for
Speaker 1: this one. I've been alluding to this, by the way.
Speaker 1: I've been hearing from my sources for many days now
Speaker 1: that this was coming. So I've been alluding to it
Speaker 1: on my new TV show at Hill dot tv slash Rising.
Speaker 1: But you can all check out at your leisure um
Speaker 1: and in fact, if you do, I'll even call it
Speaker 1: leisure because I'm not from the UK and that was weird.
Speaker 1: But the Kennedy retirement announcement has just turned this summer
Speaker 1: from a yeah, you don't have much in the Mueller probe,
Speaker 1: you don't have a lot of you know, to oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, this is the fight to end all fights.
Speaker 1: Trump has already let it me know that he's got
Speaker 1: an excellent listed judges Blake clip fifteen. Please, we have
Speaker 1: a list of people that I actually had during my election.
Speaker 1: I had to twenty and as annointed a trial a
Speaker 1: little while ago. So we have a very excellent list
Speaker 1: of great, talented, highly educated, highly intelligent, hopefully tremendous people.
Speaker 1: I think you see the kind of quality that we're
Speaker 1: looking at when you look at that list. I added
Speaker 1: five additional people to the list, so it will be
Speaker 1: somebody from that list. So we have now boiled a
Speaker 1: down to about you know, he's he's adding adding some
Speaker 1: amazing the list. It would be great to see see
Speaker 1: some names on there, some fun names too, you know,
Speaker 1: Supreme Court Justice Janine Pierrot. I don't know, could be
Speaker 1: he would He would defer by the way, if I
Speaker 1: were to say that, he would be like, oh, Buck,
Speaker 1: come on, you know, I just want to write Collins
Speaker 1: play baseball and go on TV from kind of time.
Speaker 1: You know, it would be a great Supreme Court justice.
Speaker 1: Andy McCarthy, I want to start the Andy for Scotis
Speaker 1: Andy for Scotis hashtag. He's he's such a good guy,
Speaker 1: such a good legal mind and an honest guy. You know.
Speaker 1: One of the things I really like that Anie McCarthy.
Speaker 1: And you know, he's a Fox picked him up, which
Speaker 1: everyone it's it was amazing to see somebody get a
Speaker 1: contributorship at Fox, which is very hard to come by,
Speaker 1: and just see universal praise and acclaim for the decision
Speaker 1: from the right. I mean, every every conservative note was like, yep, Andy,
Speaker 1: and he earned it, and he's and he's doing the work.
Speaker 1: He's a good guy. You know, he's about the contribution
Speaker 1: to the conversation. He's not one of these you know,
Speaker 1: dirty pool players or something out there in media. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of those. They worked for CNN, um, but
Speaker 1: you know, and he would be a great choice, I
Speaker 1: think for Supreme Court judge would be a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: Judge Need is great man, she's feisty. Um, you've also
Speaker 1: got I'm not gonna say on a more serious note,
Speaker 1: but on a more likely note, the possibility of Mike Lee.
Speaker 1: I think Mike Lee be on there. You know, I
Speaker 1: interviewed Ted Cruz what a week or two ago. It
Speaker 1: all blurs together now, And I asked him about this
Speaker 1: and Ted crew said, no interest, no interest in being
Speaker 1: a Supreme Court justice. He wants to stay in the
Speaker 1: political fight, which I viewed as a Ted Cruise way
Speaker 1: of saying he is going to run again. So there
Speaker 1: is that at which, you know, who knows where the
Speaker 1: party will be at that point in time. But I
Speaker 1: can I want to spend a little more time marinating
Speaker 1: in the in the general panic, in the general panic
Speaker 1: over at CNN when this was finally announced, please play seventeen.
Speaker 1: This could potentially transform the Court for generations. And you know,
Speaker 1: when you think of Justice Kennedy, you do think of
Speaker 1: someone who's a moderate. But his vote was crucial in
Speaker 1: a few areas. And let me just tick them off.
Speaker 1: Same sex marriage, access to abortion, and affirmative action. Okay,
Speaker 1: so those are three areas in which he was a
Speaker 1: very key and deciding vote. And now with his retirement,
Speaker 1: of course, the president is going to get an opportunity
Speaker 1: to name another conservative to the bench. It will cause
Speaker 1: an uproar, I can tell you on Capitol Hill. You're
Speaker 1: heading into the mid to our elections here, Brooke, and
Speaker 1: so once again the Supreme Court will become a huge
Speaker 1: issue Democrats. It is gonna be huge, baby, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, it really is. It's gonna be gonna
Speaker 1: be gonna be crazy stuff over the Supreme Court fight.
Speaker 1: You'll notice what they're really worried about is abortion on
Speaker 1: affirmative action, because they're clinging to a very flimsy legal
Speaker 1: fiction on both of those. Abortion is flatly not a
Speaker 1: constitutional right just and I know honest leftists who will
Speaker 1: say that, In fact, the most famous professor of jurisprudence
Speaker 1: that my own college would be like he he was,
Speaker 1: you know, abortion is absolutely a woman's riot. And you know,
Speaker 1: and even in college, I was like, I found the
Speaker 1: one pro life professor on campus to be my my
Speaker 1: mentor and friend. Right. I mean, that's so this stuff
Speaker 1: has all been obvious that some of us for a
Speaker 1: long time. But This guy was rapidly pro choice. He
Speaker 1: was like, Oh, no, road you wait is crap crap law.
Speaker 1: It's not a good it's just not a good decision.
Speaker 1: It's just, Oh, I want this, so I'm gonna I'm
Speaker 1: going to right this in such a way that I
Speaker 1: can have what I want. Oh that's like what Soda
Speaker 1: Mayor does on every case, every case. I've never seen
Speaker 1: that she is the most consistently and completely wrong justice.
Speaker 1: She reminds me of this. I had this teacher in
Speaker 1: high school, And do anybody from Regius High schools listening
Speaker 1: to this, you know exactly who I'm talking about? Who
Speaker 1: who would make this offer to you that on a
Speaker 1: multiple choice test, if you could get the most wrong
Speaker 1: answer every the most wrong, not just wrong, because there
Speaker 1: are four options, right, the most wrong answer for the
Speaker 1: whole test, I think you would get instead of a
Speaker 1: hundred points, you would get like two hundred or something.
Speaker 1: But if you got uh more than two of them wrong,
Speaker 1: you got a zero. That was so it was quite
Speaker 1: a gamble. I never knew anybody took that up, but
Speaker 1: Soda Mayor takes that gamble all the time. In this
Speaker 1: sense that she's the most wrong on each Supreme Court
Speaker 1: decision that comes down. It's like you took a panelist
Speaker 1: from MSNBC and we're like, hey, just you don't have
Speaker 1: any legal training, just write something about this. What do
Speaker 1: you think about that? Well, who do you want to win?
Speaker 1: You know, what are you thinking? That's what she does? Uh,
Speaker 1: So that's going to be very interesting, my friends, this
Speaker 1: is going to be very interesting. Oh but abortion, firm
Speaker 1: of action, those are both on legally flimsy ground and
Speaker 1: they know it. They know it. Um a firm of
Speaker 1: action in particular, gotta go, gotta go now. Abortion is
Speaker 1: a more important issue. It has to go to. But
Speaker 1: just understand this, I believe looking into this now and
Speaker 1: we're we're about to get into the whole fight and oh,
Speaker 1: all the filibuster stuff and who's responsible for the propaganda
Speaker 1: effort that is about to be mounted by the Democrats
Speaker 1: on the issue of this judge is going to do
Speaker 1: it will, mark my words, the propaganda effort from the Democrats.
Speaker 1: All this Supreme Court nomination will make the Mueller collusion
Speaker 1: fantasy look aine and rational by comparison. I mean, this
Speaker 1: is going to be the knockdown, drag out fight of
Speaker 1: the only I mean, the only I can think about
Speaker 1: that might come close would be the you know, the
Speaker 1: fights over the Iraq War. You know, I mean, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's this is gonna be a whole other level, folks
Speaker 1: of nastiness. I mean the fact that we were having
Speaker 1: trouble with civility before this came down. Think about all that.
Speaker 1: Do you think things are gonna get more civil now?
Speaker 1: I mean we just if civility was at a was
Speaker 1: at one on a ten point scale, it's about to
Speaker 1: go negative five. This is gonna get crazy. But we
Speaker 1: should talk about the filibusters. We should talk about where
Speaker 1: this is all gonna go and what's at stake here
Speaker 1: for the left and for the right. Also, I've got
Speaker 1: some thoughts on the border still at cartels, the tying
Speaker 1: to cartels. You know, that's a topic I've been talking
Speaker 1: about here for a long time. I've got more thoughts,
Speaker 1: more research that I've been doing into that. And we
Speaker 1: just have a rock and show for all of you.
Speaker 1: That's us promise eight or four nine to eight to
Speaker 1: five eight four four stare right there. We'll be back.
Speaker 1: The Senate should reject on a bipartisan basis, any justice
Speaker 1: who would overturn Roe v. Wade, or undermine key health
Speaker 1: care protections. The Senate should reject anyone who will instinctively
Speaker 1: side with powerful special interests over the interests of average Americans.
Speaker 1: Our Republican colleagues in the Senate should follow the rule
Speaker 1: they set in twenty six not to consider a Supreme
Speaker 1: Court justice in an election year. Senate stands ready to
Speaker 1: fulfill its constitutional role by offering advice and consent on
Speaker 1: President Trump's nominated to fill this vacancy. We will vote
Speaker 1: to confirm Justice Kennedy's successor this fall. As in the
Speaker 1: case of Justice Gorsuch, Senators will have the opportunity to
Speaker 1: meet with President Trump's nominee, examine his or her qualifications,
Speaker 1: and debate the nomination. You know, the Democrats are gonna
Speaker 1: get shameless on this one, more so than usual. So,
Speaker 1: I mean, there you have Chuck Schumer, who's they're just
Speaker 1: gonna rewrite history, and they're gonna shout down anybody that
Speaker 1: the talking points on this are gonna come fast and furious.
Speaker 1: They're gonna be re writing history on this stuff and
Speaker 1: acting like they didn't open the door to eliminating the
Speaker 1: filibuster for judicial nominees they did. It was them they
Speaker 1: made the move. In fact, I know people say Mitch
Speaker 1: McConnell reminds them of like Myrtle the Turtle. You know,
Speaker 1: I know people say these things. You know McConnell, you
Speaker 1: know is you know he's But I gotta give the
Speaker 1: guy some credit. I don't know, I don't know where
Speaker 1: Myrtle the Turtle kim in my mind, but you know
Speaker 1: it's there's something turtle been with the glasses. He just
Speaker 1: seems like if you had, if you've picked up a
Speaker 1: spirit animal for Mitch McConnell, I think a turtle would
Speaker 1: probably be in the uh in the mix a tortoise.
Speaker 1: John says, it's better. It's probably true. Now, remember the
Speaker 1: tortoise and the hair tortoise. Maybe slow, the tortoise may
Speaker 1: not be sexy, but the tortoise wins the race. And
Speaker 1: with Mitch McConnell, guys, I'm people, you know he's a
Speaker 1: swamp creature, blah b by blah and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Guess what, Mitch held the line on this, and you
Speaker 1: gotta give the guy credit. He got a lot of
Speaker 1: heat for it, and the Senate colleagues and all this
Speaker 1: other stuff. Whatever. Mitch held the line. You could say
Speaker 1: anybody would have, but I don't. I'm not sure about that.
Speaker 1: I don't Rebufflicans gave on a lot of stuff Mitch, Mitch.
Speaker 1: He could have gone along with a Merrick Garland thing.
Speaker 1: Oh he's a centrist. Let's go with Marrick Garland. It
Speaker 1: will make everybody happy. Bipartisan. Yeah, right, So we gotta
Speaker 1: throw a little freedom on high five to Mitch McConnell everybody.
Speaker 1: He deserves it, just saying. Plus his wife is fierce.
Speaker 1: You see that, dude, that clip. You gotta find somebody
Speaker 1: who loves you like Elaine Child loves Mitch McConnell. When
Speaker 1: those when those thugs came near him, she wasn't she
Speaker 1: wasn't playing games. Proud. I was proud of her, proud
Speaker 1: to see that. H dude, she'd she'd be good by
Speaker 1: the way. I actually, I'm not sure we'll get into
Speaker 1: because we're gonna have a lot of talk about the
Speaker 1: different nominees, different possibilities. But I actually think that, uh
Speaker 1: one of the very best candidates right now is in
Speaker 1: fact a very a conservative Catholic female. Uh. So, not
Speaker 1: that we pick people based upon their gender identity or
Speaker 1: just their gender. But just just saying that'll be interesting.
Speaker 1: That'll change some of the dynamics because they are. There's
Speaker 1: gonna be all out of sault On if it's a conservative,
Speaker 1: and it better be by the way, I don't think
Speaker 1: it will. Trump knows. Trump does this, he seals his
Speaker 1: legacy no matter what. He's holding the line for America
Speaker 1: buck sex in his back. But if he gets replaced
Speaker 1: by a hardline social conservative, it is there. The Democratic
Speaker 1: leadership will have hell to pay. They cannot let this happen.
Speaker 1: They have to play hardball. They've got to do exactly
Speaker 1: to the other side what Mitch McConnell did to them.
Speaker 1: Play hardball and win. They must prevent the Republican control.
Speaker 1: Send it to pick another justice on this hard right.
Speaker 1: Quick look at the decisions starting with Bush Gore. Look
Speaker 1: at the decisions starting going onto the Howard case. They
Speaker 1: look at the case on citizens United with the people
Speaker 1: the most money when all the elections, and then that
Speaker 1: got off of the decision yesterday, which is based they
Speaker 1: voted right down the line and five for in every case.
Speaker 1: The Democrats have got a fight for that fifth sea
Speaker 1: with everything they've got, got a quiff Matthews to put
Speaker 1: down the bourbon. Why is he always shouting? Why is
Speaker 1: Chris Matthews always shouting because he have an inside voice.
Speaker 1: Use your inside voice, Chris, use your words. He's just
Speaker 1: always bye bye bye, blah blah. I gotta get the
Speaker 1: guy credit that he's got a longevity in this business,
Speaker 1: been around for a long time. And actually met him
Speaker 1: once true story, cocktail party in the DC area. It
Speaker 1: was fancy. Uh, he was boring, but nice, you know, polite.
Speaker 1: We talked for like twenty seconds. So maybe I'm being
Speaker 1: too harsh on the boring this. He needs a haircut
Speaker 1: more than I do. Bam, Well, well played, John, True story.
Speaker 1: So you know they're saying all kinds of crazy stuff. Now.
Speaker 1: The problem, folks, is that we live in an era
Speaker 1: when any of us who want can via the the
Speaker 1: the the Google machine figure out what the Democrats used
Speaker 1: to do and how they played this game when they
Speaker 1: were in power. And this is all part of the
Speaker 1: necessary corrective that the Trump administration provides after eight years
Speaker 1: of obama Ism. Obama went scorched earth first three first
Speaker 1: two years. Not a single vote for Obamacare he put
Speaker 1: through sod Mayor and Kagan to just hardcore leftists as
Speaker 1: his Supreme Court picks. By the way, one of them
Speaker 1: was in a mid term election year and she was confirmed.
Speaker 1: So guess what this argument you're seeing about, how, oh,
Speaker 1: it's an election countal election. No, no, no, no, it's
Speaker 1: not a presidential election year, the mid term election year.
Speaker 1: And the Republicans did not try or did not, you know,
Speaker 1: lay down in the proverbial railroad tracks to stop Obama
Speaker 1: from getting his picks. The people voted for Obama. Obama
Speaker 1: won those two elections, right, he got to put into
Speaker 1: Supreme Court justices, and they are they are hard left.
Speaker 1: As I said, Kagan has some intellectual heft, so do Mayor.
Speaker 1: You know. It's it's like you're stepping into the MSNBC
Speaker 1: green room to hear somebody give legal opinions who's never
Speaker 1: been to law school. It's just it's just the way
Speaker 1: it is. Uh. I'm speaking of that. We got to
Speaker 1: talk about this union case. I will get to the
Speaker 1: union case. I'm not trying to delay on that. That
Speaker 1: will be coming up, if not right after this segment,
Speaker 1: that will come up in the next break. And yeah, uh,
Speaker 1: but Matthews knows that this is gonna be a huge fibe.
Speaker 1: And as I was saying a few moments ago, abortion
Speaker 1: and affirmative action are the two areas where they are
Speaker 1: they feel there the most vulnerable on abortion. What could happen?
Speaker 1: And it will take years, folks. And this assumes that
Speaker 1: we actually get a conservative justice through. But if it
Speaker 1: is no longer considered a constitutional right, which it is not.
Speaker 1: I mean, technically they've made it one, but it is
Speaker 1: not actually in the Constitution, as we all know, it's
Speaker 1: not a constitutional right. If that happens, then it'll get
Speaker 1: pass back to the states, and you will have states
Speaker 1: that will clearly outlaw abortion. In fact, Jeffrey Tubin, when
Speaker 1: I think, is a particularly unreliable legal analyst on CNA
Speaker 1: just in terms of his predictions, and and he's just
Speaker 1: a partisan, right, He's a partisan that they pretend as
Speaker 1: illegal analyst. But he said this, and I think this
Speaker 1: is true. You are going to see twenty states pass
Speaker 1: laws banning abortion outright, just banning abortion. And because they
Speaker 1: know that, there are now going to be five votes
Speaker 1: on the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade, and
Speaker 1: abortion will be illegal in a significant part of the
Speaker 1: United States. In eighteen months. Row V. Wade is doomed.
Speaker 1: It is gone because Donald Trump won the election. Now,
Speaker 1: I want to be very clear about this. That is
Speaker 1: another way of saying what he just said. And now,
Speaker 1: for liberals, by the way, this is this is going
Speaker 1: after their unholy grail, right, this is going after the
Speaker 1: most precious thing to modern liberalism, which is abortion. More
Speaker 1: than anything else, this is the one thing that is
Speaker 1: closest to well. To call it a sacrament is the
Speaker 1: opposite of what it is. It's really a right, you know,
Speaker 1: R I T e UM. But they they will fight
Speaker 1: with everything they have on this. They will go after people.
Speaker 1: The nastiness, the incivility you've seen will will only escalate.
Speaker 1: But it's another way of and I want to be
Speaker 1: very clear on this now. I want to make sure
Speaker 1: that I get on the record with this. Now, this
Speaker 1: means that if Trump picked somebody that he says he will,
Speaker 1: and we have no reasonable believe that he won't, if
Speaker 1: McConnell in this and the GOP Senate holds the line.
Speaker 1: By the way, there are some Republicans I worry about
Speaker 1: defections from you. You have some totally unreliable punks on
Speaker 1: the GOP side in the Senate. Jeff Flake, Oh, there's
Speaker 1: there's a number of them, folks. You don't know what
Speaker 1: they're gonna do. They might be willing to come up
Speaker 1: the works here just because they know. If Trump puts
Speaker 1: Corsitch and someone like Corsitch on the Court, his four
Speaker 1: years have been I mean, unless he actually does start
Speaker 1: a nuclear war with China over nothing, his four years
Speaker 1: will be worth it. And I think everybody knows that
Speaker 1: his four years will have had real lasting impact. Never
Speaker 1: mind the fact he's crushing it on the economy, He's
Speaker 1: just it's just been a great He's completely put the
Speaker 1: left wing media on their back heels. He's changed the
Speaker 1: American conversation over politics and the media landscape forever. So
Speaker 1: that's all stuff that we have to thank as president for.
Speaker 1: But on abortion, and this is where I was going
Speaker 1: a moment ago. If he if this happens, if we
Speaker 1: get somebody who is a conservative jurist on the High
Speaker 1: Court and Roe v. Wade is overturned, um, that will
Speaker 1: mean that Donald Trump will have saved countless, likely millions
Speaker 1: of lives. That's what that will mean. That is what
Speaker 1: his election. We'll mean. Think about that for a moment,
Speaker 1: think about the impact of that. And for all of
Speaker 1: my friends out there who are conservatives who are not
Speaker 1: cautious on Trump, not calling balls and strikes on Trump,
Speaker 1: but are still dead set against Trump, think about what
Speaker 1: you're really doing. Think about what's really going on here.
Speaker 1: Play the long game. Lives are at stake. That is
Speaker 1: not an overstatement. If you are pro life, you absolutely
Speaker 1: believe it with every fiber of your being. And President Trump,
Speaker 1: for all of his imperfections, for all of his locker
Speaker 1: room talk and you know which I know somebody you like,
Speaker 1: I actually kind of like it, But for all of that,
Speaker 1: for his lack of messaging discipline of although you know,
Speaker 1: people say that, and I was like, this is the
Speaker 1: guy who single handily has taken on the left wing
Speaker 1: media machine, and it's just giving them rhetorical, bloody noses
Speaker 1: day in and day out, rhetorical we don't actually believe
Speaker 1: in violence, you know what I'm saying. He's slapping them around,
Speaker 1: buck slapping them left and right. And but that same
Speaker 1: president who has that ability will be will be in
Speaker 1: a position now to have saved going forward, untold numbers
Speaker 1: of lives. And by the way, some of you are saying, buck,
Speaker 1: but there'll still be states California, New York, They'll still
Speaker 1: have abortional monemnents. I understand that, but there'll be other
Speaker 1: states that don't. And that alone will mean fewer abortions,
Speaker 1: which means more lives, more life, more babies. Um. So
Speaker 1: this is the stakes are very very high. And just
Speaker 1: one more thing, on one more note on this, on
Speaker 1: a firm of action, the the left doesn't have a
Speaker 1: leg to stand on anymore. Um, the cases that are
Speaker 1: being brought by Asian Americans on this about Harvard and
Speaker 1: you're just seeing this elsewhere. A firmative action is something
Speaker 1: that people like that is legally not justifiable. And when
Speaker 1: I mean people, Democrats and the left likes, and some
Speaker 1: conservatives are not concerned. Some Republicans are kind of okay
Speaker 1: with it because they want to be accepted at cocktail parties.
Speaker 1: The same kind of Republicans that tell people their libertarians
Speaker 1: and cocktail parties because they want to have friends, they
Speaker 1: tend to be okay with a firmtive action too, because
Speaker 1: they don't want to seem or racist. Um. But affirm
Speaker 1: of action is on its last legs and this will
Speaker 1: mean the end of it, and what will really worry
Speaker 1: liberals once affirmn of action goes. And I'm getting ahead
Speaker 1: of myself here, because they're gonna put up we're we're
Speaker 1: never gonna have seen a fight over a nominee like
Speaker 1: we're gonna see over this one. People say it would
Speaker 1: be like Bork. I wasn't around for that, so certainly
Speaker 1: not in my lifetime or not in my adult lifetime. Um,
Speaker 1: but a firm of action if it goes, people will
Speaker 1: have to think back to and say, hold on a second,
Speaker 1: So was that really just unconstitutional the whole time? We're
Speaker 1: liberals just pandering to minority constituencies with a system of
Speaker 1: racial spoils, as Justice Scalia called it, a system of
Speaker 1: racial preferences because it was politically convenient for them and
Speaker 1: because there was a degree of you know, that's how
Speaker 1: liberals view the world, that's how they view things. Uh,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a fight over the history here of
Speaker 1: the filibuster thing. I want to talk to you about
Speaker 1: that because that's important. You're going to hear a lot
Speaker 1: of lies about it, and then we will get into
Speaker 1: this public sector union issue, which I have strong feelings about.
Speaker 1: I was not in a public sector union. But I
Speaker 1: worked for the federal government. As you know, I made
Speaker 1: a lot of coffee. But I didn't know about black rifle.
Speaker 1: Actually black rival didn't exist at the time, so I
Speaker 1: can't follow myself there. Drank a lot of Comi coffee
Speaker 1: during my CIA days. Uh eight four four eight to
Speaker 1: five eight four four nine buck. We'll talk a bit
Speaker 1: about the filibuster history. It's very, very important because you're
Speaker 1: gonna see a lot of lies by this and I
Speaker 1: want you to be up to speed on how they're lying.
Speaker 1: And then we'll talk about that Supreme Court case about
Speaker 1: thoughts on the border. The car tells. What they're not
Speaker 1: telling you is that human smuggling, include of families and
Speaker 1: of children, is a massive profit maker now for the cartels,
Speaker 1: and cartels are using those same smuggling rings to bring drugs,
Speaker 1: of course into the country. If you're moving people, you
Speaker 1: might as well move drugs. These are these are stories,
Speaker 1: These are realities that need a whole lot more attention. Um.
Speaker 1: So there's that. By the way, if you want to
Speaker 1: send me some thoughts for roll called Facebook dot com,
Speaker 1: slashbox Sexton and also we've been doing some some fun
Speaker 1: Facebook Lives, which you can check out there too, which
Speaker 1: you'll see a little bit of an insider view of
Speaker 1: the Freedom Hunt team. Light up the lines, much more
Speaker 1: show coming. Stay with me. I think its the single
Speaker 1: most consequential decision I've ever made. I felt very confident
Speaker 1: that had the shoemen on the other foot, a Democratic
Speaker 1: Senate simply would not have confirmed a Supreme Court nominated
Speaker 1: by a Republican president of the middle of election. In fact,
Speaker 1: Joe Biden said that the one who I could see
Speaker 1: that he had offered that I'll be a suggestion. I
Speaker 1: was pretty confident that the complaints would be pretty rank hypocrisy,
Speaker 1: knowing full well that in the middle of a presidential
Speaker 1: election you're not likely to be able to confirm Miss McConnell.
Speaker 1: That was earlier today, Mitch taking a victory lap. Right now,
Speaker 1: my friends, Mitch is Mitch is pouring out Chris stal
Speaker 1: and hanging with all of his peeps. He he deserves it.
Speaker 1: He uh, good for mitch Man. You know, we gotta
Speaker 1: get guys, we gotta give credit. I know, people go
Speaker 1: on radio they're like, oh, the Republicans sell us out
Speaker 1: in the establishment of bla blah. Yeah, I mean that
Speaker 1: happens too, But Mitch, he got it done on this one.
Speaker 1: On the filibuster though, remember Harry Reid back in tweeted
Speaker 1: this out thanks to all of you who encouraged me
Speaker 1: to consider filibuster reform and had to be done. They
Speaker 1: started this, folks, Republicans just finished it, you know, Democrats
Speaker 1: when it comes to the filibuster and judicial nominees. Of
Speaker 1: the guy in the bar who pokes you in the
Speaker 1: chest and then you know, you lay him out with
Speaker 1: a haymache and he was like, whoa, you didn't have
Speaker 1: to hit me. It's like, don't don't push me, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? They pushed. They started it, we
Speaker 1: finished it. So that's and and now people gonna say,
Speaker 1: oh Buck, but you know, just wait till the Democrats. Yeah,
Speaker 1: have you see It's gonna be a while, folks. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be a while before this is a problem. We
Speaker 1: have to think about like six years from now at
Speaker 1: a minimum. I think, so there's that if Ted Cruz
Speaker 1: has his way, it'll be math. Buck is not gonna
Speaker 1: math fourteen years. It's weird to think about this. I'll
Speaker 1: be an old man at that point. Son, Senator Harry
Speaker 1: Reid said that, and just you know, back in Mitch McConnell,
Speaker 1: on this filibuster reform issue, said the following play Please,
Speaker 1: democrats are threatening to break the rules of the Senate,
Speaker 1: break the rules of the Senate in order to change
Speaker 1: the rules of the Senate. And over what? Over what
Speaker 1: over a court that doesn't even have enough work to do?
Speaker 1: The majority of leader promised, he promised, over and over
Speaker 1: again that he wouldn't break the rules of the Senate
Speaker 1: in order to change them. If you want to play games,
Speaker 1: set get another precedent that you will no doubt come
Speaker 1: to regret. Say to my friends on the other side
Speaker 1: of the all you will regret this, and you may
Speaker 1: regret it a lot sooner than you think. The words
Speaker 1: of Mitch McConnell. You'll regret this, and you may regret
Speaker 1: it a lot sooner than you think Democrats. And here
Speaker 1: we are prophetic stuff from Mitch McConnell. He is totally correct,
Speaker 1: He is right on this one. And good things, good
Speaker 1: things are coming, my friends. I think that we're gonna
Speaker 1: see um although it's gonna be so ugly, I just
Speaker 1: also it's gonna be a good end result, I believe.
Speaker 1: But man, this is going to be so so ugly.
Speaker 1: In the meantime, people are just gonna they're gonna throw
Speaker 1: everything that and I'm telling about the filibuster thing, just
Speaker 1: so we're all very clear. They're gonna lie to you.
Speaker 1: They're gonna say, oh, there's a rule that Republicans know.
Speaker 1: There's not there's not some rule. The the Senate majority leader,
Speaker 1: when it was Harry Read they changed this so that
Speaker 1: they could start court packing. Obama engaged in a vast
Speaker 1: campaign of court packing at the federal circuit court level,
Speaker 1: and I think a third of the federal judiciary right now.
Speaker 1: Obama pointees, all right, those are lifetime appointments. So now
Speaker 1: Trump is doing a good job too. Right now. But
Speaker 1: they started this thing, and we warned them, Mitch McConnell,
Speaker 1: we just played you that sound. He warned them, and
Speaker 1: now here we are. You know, elections have consequences. It
Speaker 1: is true. This is the This is the counterweight to
Speaker 1: eight years of scorched earth obamasm. This is just the truth.
Speaker 1: They threw out all any sense, any pretense of bipartisanship,
Speaker 1: any willingness to work with the other side. It was
Speaker 1: gone for eight years. You know what it's not coming
Speaker 1: back for a while now either. Yeah, that's the truth.
Speaker 1: Fair Play is fair play, and fair play is not
Speaker 1: gonna be fun for the other side right now. So
Speaker 1: I think that we were We do have an excellent
Speaker 1: list of judges to look at here, and I am
Speaker 1: very pleased about what we are seeing so far in
Speaker 1: terms of the possibles. And this is gonna drive liberals
Speaker 1: completely and utterly insane. They are going to lose their
Speaker 1: minds over this. I don't know what happens. I asked
Speaker 1: this question in all earnestness, folks. Trump derangement syndrome plus
Speaker 1: open Supreme Court seat equals liberal def con Juan, I mean,
Speaker 1: they're they're just gonna be at I don't know, They're
Speaker 1: gonna be apoplectic over this. They're gonna completely they've already
Speaker 1: lost it over trust. What happens when you've already lost
Speaker 1: to what do you call that? You know? There, They're
Speaker 1: gonna be in some other stratosphere of freak out mode
Speaker 1: and it's gonna get really, really ugly. I mean, if
Speaker 1: you saw the panic on social media, I was seeing tweets.
Speaker 1: He had a former Obama administration official just tweeting out
Speaker 1: the F word. I mean, that's what people are doing now.
Speaker 1: They don't even know what to say other than just
Speaker 1: start screaming and cursing. But you know that's what liberals do.
Speaker 1: Big justice, big Supreme Court decision, I mean, came down
Speaker 1: today about public sector unions that's coming up. Home security
Speaker 1: can be a pain. You know you needed, but you
Speaker 1: also don't want to get locked into some long term contract,
Speaker 1: some expensive to install, an impossible to get rid of
Speaker 1: security system that you don't even really know how to use.
Speaker 1: Simply Save Home Security fixes all of that. Simply Safe
Speaker 1: got rid of contracts and hidden fees. I've got the

Speaker 1: the news and disseminating information to have actionable intelligence. Make
Speaker 1: no mistakes, American, You're a great American Again. This is
Speaker 1: the buck Sexton Show with a more sensitive view of
Speaker 1: the First Amendment and with a track record of labor
Speaker 1: of labor management issues that have not has not always
Speaker 1: gone well for either side. The Court has said enough
Speaker 1: is enough. You have the right to join the union,
Speaker 1: and you have the right not to join, and the
Speaker 1: government is not going to put you in one direction
Speaker 1: or the other. Judge, have you considered the financial impact
Speaker 1: of a ruling like this on unions in America? The
Speaker 1: Court has not considered it, but for us to consider it,
Speaker 1: and the and the unions know this, the word is catastrophic.
Speaker 1: The only reason, the principal reason I should say the
Speaker 1: public sceptor labor unions have survived to two thousand and eighteen,
Speaker 1: there are a hundred years old, is because states have
Speaker 1: forced employees to join them. Welcome back to the buck
Speaker 1: Sexton Show. I agree, Uh, I agree with Judge Napolitano.
Speaker 1: The Judge Napolitano, he's he's about a gentleman, very very
Speaker 1: nice guy. Um. I've always always found him to be
Speaker 1: quite pleasant and and very amusing backstage in the green
Speaker 1: room and all the rest of it. Really really nice dude.
Speaker 1: But he's completely correct here. It is it is catastrophic
Speaker 1: for public sector unions. This this case that came down today,
Speaker 1: Janice v afs me. So here's the or state, county
Speaker 1: and municipal employees right here, here's here's what is that
Speaker 1: issue case? You know, just just give us a basis
Speaker 1: this and then I'll get into why it's a big deal.
Speaker 1: But we also talk about this hour a huge progressive
Speaker 1: win against a very establishment Democrat in New York, which
Speaker 1: I think is it's much less interesting to us because
Speaker 1: of what it does inside the Democrat Party than it
Speaker 1: is about what it shows us about the trajectory of
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party, which is socialism, open outright advocacy for socialism. Now,
Speaker 1: this is this is gathering steam. This is going to
Speaker 1: be something that they will no longer be able to
Speaker 1: hide behind the Demo democratic label as much when we
Speaker 1: say that they are pushing for European style democratic socialism.
Speaker 1: They will have to admit this, and I think the
Speaker 1: American people will reject it. But we will get to
Speaker 1: that in just a few moments though, in a little bit.
Speaker 1: Very interesting political dynamics at play in those races. And
Speaker 1: then also some talk about the cartels, and just the
Speaker 1: media does not want to tell you about what's going
Speaker 1: on in Mexico. They don't want to tell you about
Speaker 1: human about human smuggling and the role of the cartels
Speaker 1: playing it, how much money is at stake here, the
Speaker 1: role of the cartels in creating this current migrant crisis
Speaker 1: at the border. They don't want you to know about this,
Speaker 1: They don't want to cover this. So I just think
Speaker 1: that it's important to spend some of our time on that.
Speaker 1: But first, in this case, Supreme Court case another five
Speaker 1: another five four decision, another five four decisions, was a
Speaker 1: victory for UH free speech, a victory for free speech. Um.
Speaker 1: It was a situation where the left had once again
Speaker 1: positioned itself where it would compel speech. And this is
Speaker 1: even a step beyond suppression of speech. Right, if you
Speaker 1: if you go to the the last words in orwell
Speaker 1: you know the last paragraph, the last words, you will
Speaker 1: call that the true victory of Big Brother comes not
Speaker 1: in the terrifying circumstances of the the omnipresent superstate and
Speaker 1: all that the true victory comes through a denouncing of
Speaker 1: the woman that he loves, right by by betraying his beliefs,
Speaker 1: betraying who he is. That is, when you have been
Speaker 1: completely stripped of your being, of your of your soul,
Speaker 1: right of your conscience. And there are a number of liberals,
Speaker 1: liberal laws out there, and there is a tendency on
Speaker 1: the left to do just that. Bake that cake, you know,
Speaker 1: that's the shorthand for this. Bake that cake, right, what
Speaker 1: we tell you to write on that cake or else
Speaker 1: or else, that is their position on this. And in
Speaker 1: Janice vfs Me we see this yet again. So there
Speaker 1: have been a few of these cases, whether you had
Speaker 1: Masterpiece Cake Shop, which went in favor of free speech,
Speaker 1: the Bisarah case where they were no, they're no longer
Speaker 1: able to stay to California to tell crisis pregnancy centers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta do a little a little advertorial
Speaker 1: here for abortion providers. All right, that's no longer, that's
Speaker 1: no longer a part of this that's no longer some
Speaker 1: thing that has to happen. So Masterpiece cake Shop and
Speaker 1: I F l A v. Bass Era, and then the
Speaker 1: third one is uh, the third one is this professional sorry,
Speaker 1: this union issue back on track, This union issue where
Speaker 1: they will collect dues from you whether you agree with
Speaker 1: the union or not. That was the way that it
Speaker 1: had been. This is how they had sustained unions for
Speaker 1: a a very uh, a very long time. This is
Speaker 1: how they had sustained the unions. And now they've come
Speaker 1: out and they said, you know what, this is too much.
Speaker 1: This is a situation where we can't have people that
Speaker 1: are forced to subsidize what is inherently a political activity,
Speaker 1: which is the bargaining of public sector unions in all
Speaker 1: respects right, because this is literally the government trying to
Speaker 1: get stuff for the government, and if you don't agree
Speaker 1: with that, you shouldn't be forced to take it, to
Speaker 1: have money taken from you and given to it. Now,
Speaker 1: the reason the left gets so upset about this, the
Speaker 1: reason they become so very very fired up, is because
Speaker 1: this is what has kept teachers unions flush with cash,
Speaker 1: and who to teachers union support Democrats? This is where
Speaker 1: you have teachers unions able to draw upon vast reserves
Speaker 1: of cash that they can then throw into elections. This
Speaker 1: is the machine. This is the self locking ice cream
Speaker 1: cone of the left. Um. That is what's going on here.
Speaker 1: That is the the stakes. And that's why they're so
Speaker 1: very very upset about this because a a key source
Speaker 1: of political power for the Democratic Party today is that
Speaker 1: they can count on public sector unions for donations, and
Speaker 1: then the Democrat politicians get into office and then they
Speaker 1: make sure there's more benefit, it's and more the cash
Speaker 1: keeps flowing, etcetera, and so on and so forth. So
Speaker 1: now you have a situation where they cannot compel that
Speaker 1: speech anymore. Five four decision though, just going to show
Speaker 1: you how hostile the liberal left really is too free speech.
Speaker 1: Just go to show you how hostile the liberal left
Speaker 1: is to um people being able to have their own
Speaker 1: beliefs and ideas. And in this case, there was one.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find the specific quote here, so we also,
Speaker 1: I had literally a an internet at something in this monologue.
Speaker 1: I have an internet outage. I get what I think
Speaker 1: is an emergency text, and I've been up since five
Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning. So it's been it's quite a
Speaker 1: scene in here in the Freedom hud right now. But
Speaker 1: here's what in the majority opinion, here's what a legal writes.
Speaker 1: When speech is compelled, additional damage is done. In that situation,
Speaker 1: individuals are coerced into betraying their convey actions. Forcing free
Speaker 1: and independent individuals to to endorse ideas they find objectionable
Speaker 1: is always demeaning. And for this reason, one of our
Speaker 1: landmark free speech cases said that a law commanding involuntary
Speaker 1: affirmation of objected two beliefs would require even more immediate
Speaker 1: and urgent grounds than a law demanding silence. Suppression in
Speaker 1: some ways is even less odious than forced affirmation than
Speaker 1: forced celebration. And I've been telling you for a long time,
Speaker 1: what is the game that the left place. The left
Speaker 1: will say we just want tolerance, and then they will
Speaker 1: say we want acceptance, and then they will say we
Speaker 1: want celebration, We want you to bend the knee. That's
Speaker 1: always the continuum that the left wing operates on. And
Speaker 1: with this issue of compelled speech, we see that once
Speaker 1: again you will no longer have a situation where the
Speaker 1: um where these public sector unions will be able to
Speaker 1: be an arm of the d n C, which is
Speaker 1: clearly what they what that that is what they are.
Speaker 1: They're an arm of the d n C now uh,
Speaker 1: And they will not have the power they've had in
Speaker 1: the past. And so this is going after the Democrat
Speaker 1: power structure. And it's also, by the way, a very important,
Speaker 1: a very important precedent I think going for I think
Speaker 1: this will also affect some of the some of what
Speaker 1: goes on with private sector unions. Will have a union
Speaker 1: guy joining us later on on the show to talk
Speaker 1: a bit more about this in some with some first
Speaker 1: hand experience, in firsthand detail. But first we got is
Speaker 1: Herban New Jersey still on. I know he wants to
Speaker 1: talk about this. I haven't taken a new calls yet,
Speaker 1: Herban New Jersey. You're all my friend? What's up? What
Speaker 1: the buck is going on? Um? Not much? Herb? What
Speaker 1: are you? What are your thoughts on this one? Well?
Speaker 1: I have to tell you I'm a conservative Christian, Second
Speaker 1: Amendment and R, a member pro life, and I'm a teamster.
Speaker 1: So I have some um opinions about this case. And
Speaker 1: I also have some experience because for three years I
Speaker 1: was a union official and I was a business agent
Speaker 1: for a group of our members who worked in the
Speaker 1: public sector. So I'm very familiar with the subject, and
Speaker 1: I can tell you that what concerns me about this.
Speaker 1: First of all, UM, when I was a union official,
Speaker 1: I was required to file information, along with the other
Speaker 1: officers in our union every year with the Department of Labor,
Speaker 1: part of an LM two report which we were supposed
Speaker 1: to differentiate how much of our time is spent on
Speaker 1: representational Tom, I think we lost her? Do we lose
Speaker 1: HERB Guys, I can't hear her? Go ahead, can you
Speaker 1: hear me? Now? Yeah? We can. Hello, We're here. Um,
Speaker 1: we were we were required to differentiate how much of
Speaker 1: our time was spent on representational activities and how much
Speaker 1: was spent on anything of a political nature. And the
Speaker 1: percentage of our time factored into how much those who
Speaker 1: were considered agency fee payers would be required to paying
Speaker 1: union dudes. They were not paying full union dudes if
Speaker 1: they chose to be what we're called agency fee payers.
Speaker 1: And um, anything that was spent from our local union
Speaker 1: on political purposes came out of a separate fund that
Speaker 1: was donated to buy members on a voluntary basis. There
Speaker 1: was no coercion involved. It was you had to designate
Speaker 1: that you want an X amount of money taken out
Speaker 1: of your paycheck. Uh, if you wanted it to be
Speaker 1: used for political purposes. Yeah, but it isn't money fungible herb.
Speaker 1: I mean, come on right, I mean if I, if
Speaker 1: I get money, it's fungible. A meaning that if I
Speaker 1: give you, if I give you money to buy groceries
Speaker 1: and you say no, I'm only gonna use you know,
Speaker 1: and you say I won't use this to buy you know,
Speaker 1: I won't use this money from my house. Well, you
Speaker 1: got money to buy groceries, now, so you got money
Speaker 1: to you know what I'm saying that that's the notion
Speaker 1: of separate pools of money with these union dude, seems
Speaker 1: to me to be specious. No, Unfortunately, there are very
Speaker 1: strict governmental requirements, reporting requirements that each union is required
Speaker 1: to file every year on those very funds. Look look
Speaker 1: up the LM two report and you'll see what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. So what do you you can? I ask you?
Speaker 1: Do you do you? Do you disagree or do you
Speaker 1: agree with this decision that I have somebody that's dealt
Speaker 1: with this firsthand. Uh? You know, I I agree with
Speaker 1: just about every of the recent Supreme Court decisions, but
Speaker 1: I have a problem with this one now has a caveat.
Speaker 1: I have to tell you I have not yet read
Speaker 1: the full decision, so I'm not speaking in details. I'm
Speaker 1: speaking in generalities. I'm concern learned about those people who
Speaker 1: we think of as freeloaders because if you don't pay
Speaker 1: union dudes, you're still required by other laws to be represented.
Speaker 1: So the union is going to spend money to represent you. No.
Speaker 1: I know this has been the justification all along, right,
Speaker 1: but it's still it's that's still political activity, and that
Speaker 1: people if people are taking money out of someone else's
Speaker 1: bank account that goes towards an activity that is inherently political.
Speaker 1: That is, that is subsidizing political speech. I mean, this
Speaker 1: is why the Court ruled the way they did. No political, No,
Speaker 1: it's not political. If it's collective bargaining, that's different thing.
Speaker 1: All to get out, well, I mean, I I hear you, hear,
Speaker 1: but the Supreme Court disagrees and working conditions. Not who
Speaker 1: you're supporting for political office, no, but for for government employees.
Speaker 1: Everything is a part. I mean, it doesn't matter if
Speaker 1: you're talking about overtime hours. If it doesn't matter what
Speaker 1: you're discussion. When you're talking about the employees of the government,
Speaker 1: there there is an inherently political component of all those negotiations.
Speaker 1: I mean this anyway, her By, I hear you, and
Speaker 1: I before we got to run into a break here
Speaker 1: else our lines are in, our sponsors gonna get mad
Speaker 1: at us. Uh, we gotta go to break with herp
Speaker 1: Thank you for calling it from New Jersey. Um, I'll come.
Speaker 1: I've got more on this. I want to read you
Speaker 1: what Justice Kagan right here, because it's actually worthwhile and
Speaker 1: it was good. And then we'll talk about the left
Speaker 1: word socialist tilt of the Democrats we saw on display
Speaker 1: in the last twenty four hours with some of these
Speaker 1: primary wins and cartels. We got a lot to talk about.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. I just have my credit card stolen, folks.
Speaker 1: Someone tried to go on a fraudulent shopping spree in
Speaker 1: NYC earlier this week. Just as a reminder that you
Speaker 1: know your information is out there, people can steal it.
Speaker 1: But credit card fraud is nothing compared to the nightmare
Speaker 1: you're in for if an identity thief takes control of
Speaker 1: your home's title. It's not a hard process. Folks. There
Speaker 1: are internet thieves all over the lobe and they want
Speaker 1: to go after Americans who have equity in their homes.
Speaker 1: What they do is take you off your home's title,
Speaker 1: replace it with an alias, and they borrow every penny possible.
Speaker 1: You know, when you find out about it, when you
Speaker 1: start getting payment notices for loans, you know, people start
Speaker 1: demanding the money that you didn't borrow, but so embarred
Speaker 1: in your name. Don't let this happen to you. For
Speaker 1: just pennies a day, Home title Lock protects my most

Speaker 1: That's a sixty dollar value. Free visit home title lock
Speaker 1: dot com. That's home title lock dot com. So this
Speaker 1: is from the descent. We had this big case about
Speaker 1: public sector unions. As I said, this is all about
Speaker 1: democrat power. It's about compelling speech, meaning compelling people to
Speaker 1: engage in speech, not compelling like that's great speech you have.
Speaker 1: And a Justice Kagan wrote the following um its decision
Speaker 1: meaning the majority decision will have large scale consequences public
Speaker 1: employee unions will lose a secure source of financial support.
Speaker 1: State and local governments that thought fair share provisions further
Speaker 1: their interests will need to find new ways of managing
Speaker 1: their workforces. Across the country, the relationships of public employees
Speaker 1: and employers will alter in both predictable and wholly unexpected ways.
Speaker 1: This is good that I'm glad that Kagan writes this
Speaker 1: here in the Descent, because it tells you what's really
Speaker 1: going on. It's about money, folks. It's about money for
Speaker 1: unions and money for Democrats and elected officials and the
Speaker 1: Democrat political machine. That's what That's what this really comes
Speaker 1: down to. Why you might ask what a Supreme Court
Speaker 1: nominee care about who's getting you know, wh who's getting
Speaker 1: money out of this seems irrelevant to the question of
Speaker 1: should speech be compelled. There are a lot of things
Speaker 1: you could do that are unconstituted sational that would give
Speaker 1: money to you know, it would be unconstitutional. For example,
Speaker 1: for the government, I would think to you know, force
Speaker 1: you to donate money to a a certain a certain
Speaker 1: religious group. That would I think that's pretty flatly unconstitutional. Right,
Speaker 1: might be good, might help some people, might you know,
Speaker 1: be the homeless somewhere or something. But they take money
Speaker 1: from you and they give they give it to the
Speaker 1: Church of the Freedom HUD. As much as that would
Speaker 1: be amazing, it would be flatly unconstitutional. And Kagan kind
Speaker 1: of gives up the gives up that the truth here,
Speaker 1: give gives up what's really going on by letting it
Speaker 1: be known that their objection is about the fact that
Speaker 1: this is money for the left, This is money for
Speaker 1: major Democrat causes. So bottom line, you're, folks, a big
Speaker 1: week for the Supreme Court, for conservatives and and for
Speaker 1: the You gotta tip your hat to to President Trump here,
Speaker 1: you know. But gorcitch is not just some snide little line.
Speaker 1: It's true because we have Gorsage now, we have some
Speaker 1: protections in play, some very important decisions this week from
Speaker 1: Supreme Court that went that went the right way, and
Speaker 1: after some of the decisions we've seen in years under
Speaker 1: the Obama administration that went clearly the wrong way. I mean,
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court saved Obamacare twice from itself, which is
Speaker 1: just appalling. It's nice to see the court get back
Speaker 1: to the law. Isn't a crazy idea of Supreme Court
Speaker 1: focused on the law instead of what the political preferences
Speaker 1: are of the Democrat Party. I want to talk to
Speaker 1: you about some of these Democrat elections. I know, usually
Speaker 1: a fun Why do we care about it? Well, because socialism,
Speaker 1: my friends, is alive and well among the American left.
Speaker 1: He's back with you now because when it comes to
Speaker 1: the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. The Senate
Speaker 1: Intel Committee with the House time that timeame in my time,
Speaker 1: reclaimer a time the secretary the time belongs to the
Speaker 1: general lady from California. Perhaps, Mr Chairman, I don't understand
Speaker 1: the rules because I thought I was allowed to answer
Speaker 1: questions reclaim in my time. Would you please explain the
Speaker 1: rules and do not take that away from my time.
Speaker 1: With this kind of inspiration, I will go and take
Speaker 1: Trump out tonight, unveil the criminal activity, the unconstitutional activity
Speaker 1: of this president and his family. So I have dubbed
Speaker 1: them the criminal Clan a long time ago, and I
Speaker 1: will fight every day until he is Impeaceeds funny By,
Speaker 1: This is a bunch of scumbacks, That's what they are.
Speaker 1: Those are very strong organized around making money. The fact
Speaker 1: that he is wrapping his arms around Putin, uh, while
Speaker 1: Putin is continuing to advance into Korea. Those are the
Speaker 1: words of an elected member of Congress, Folks, multiple terms
Speaker 1: at that Maxie Waters, and a lot of attention this
Speaker 1: week because of her call to action to what I'm
Speaker 1: now calling politically motivated stalking. That's what we're seeing. It's
Speaker 1: different than protesting, different than having your voice heard. It
Speaker 1: is politically motivated stalking, and it's going to lead to
Speaker 1: very bad things. As we've been discussing here back today
Speaker 1: Washington Examiner, how to pull out fear violence from Trump
Speaker 1: haters and in this poll, fear we are heading for
Speaker 1: a civil war. Now, I do not think we are
Speaker 1: heading for a civil war, but I do think that
Speaker 1: we are going to see anti Trump violence. I think
Speaker 1: that there's no way that the left is going to
Speaker 1: turn back towards sanity without even further transgressions, without going
Speaker 1: deeper into the crazy. My expectations that we will see
Speaker 1: Democrats engaging in behavior going forward. Now that the Supreme
Speaker 1: Court is also at stake, all bets are off. Who
Speaker 1: knows what they're going to do. And the more successful
Speaker 1: Trump is and the more unified behind Donald Trump the
Speaker 1: Republican Party becomes because of his successes, the more they
Speaker 1: will hate him the more they will find excuses in
Speaker 1: their own minds to take action against Trump officials. And
Speaker 1: if you are willing to go up to a stranger
Speaker 1: and try to intimidate them by to pawn ideology, it
Speaker 1: is not a far leap for people to do more
Speaker 1: than that. Those same people. It's not you know, I
Speaker 1: keep saying this. You know, this is a combustible situation.
Speaker 1: This is combustible. You have aggressive, angry people confronting human
Speaker 1: beings on the street outside of their homes and restaurants
Speaker 1: that can quickly lead to an escalation. And I was
Speaker 1: saying to you, I mean, I just think about it
Speaker 1: this way. If I were you know, if I were
Speaker 1: out with Miss Molly and look, I know I'm not
Speaker 1: a White House official and whatever, but I'm just I'm
Speaker 1: a conservative and people have come up to me, they know, occasionally,
Speaker 1: in in nice parts of the country where the nice
Speaker 1: people live, they've come up like, hey, Buck, it's very nice.
Speaker 1: By the way, if you ever seen me, please do
Speaker 1: say hi. I love seeing members of the team, especially
Speaker 1: when i'm Miss Molly makes me look cool. So but
Speaker 1: but you know, if I were out and and a
Speaker 1: group gathered around me and they started yelling, you know,
Speaker 1: epithets at me and being hostile and everything I've I'm
Speaker 1: not elected official. I don't think I just walk away
Speaker 1: from that, and that can get All it takes is
Speaker 1: one person to get a little too close in your face,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe spitting your face or just just take
Speaker 1: one little shove and things get out of hand really quickly.
Speaker 1: And nobody wants that that's not the way they should go,
Speaker 1: but they're gonna push until that happens, and then they're
Speaker 1: gonna try to rely on their allies in the left
Speaker 1: wing media to say that it was you know, the
Speaker 1: confrontation was a misunderstanding, or it's not representative of the laugh.
Speaker 1: But they are creating the environment. They're creating the hostile
Speaker 1: environment and circumstances for violent confrontation between left and right
Speaker 1: in this country. They're doing it. They're knowingly and willfully
Speaker 1: doing this, and it's going to have very very serious consequences,
Speaker 1: I think, and this whole Supreme Court component is only
Speaker 1: going to exacerbate the situation and make it worse. So
Speaker 1: keep that in mind. Now, there's also a strain of
Speaker 1: of extremism that you're seeing on the left, a more
Speaker 1: open and radical socialism that got a boost with the
Speaker 1: win of of a young woman. But the last name
Speaker 1: of Cortez, I can't it's actually a hyphenated last name.
Speaker 1: I'm not big into hyphenated last name, so I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna call her Cortez. But she has a there's a
Speaker 1: name that's before I just can't remember what it is.
Speaker 1: But she beat this guy Crowley, who is a machine politician,
Speaker 1: really the third or fourth most senior Democrat in the
Speaker 1: House representative representing Queens, this guy Crowley, and now he's
Speaker 1: he's a lib. I mean, he's a big liberal, no
Speaker 1: question about it. But he's a machine politician, many many
Speaker 1: many terms in the Congress. And this uh, young woman, Cortet,
Speaker 1: she's twenty eight years old. She beat him. So now
Speaker 1: she's the overwhelming favorite. Two uh to to whin the
Speaker 1: when the seat right? When this congression seating Queens, I mean,
Speaker 1: Queens is Democrats stronghold. It's one of the five boroughs
Speaker 1: of New York City. Um, and I wonder if it's well,
Speaker 1: I don't know if Manhattan her Queens is more more blue.
Speaker 1: It's probably like comparing with a scent or something. They're very,
Speaker 1: very very overwhelmingly Democrat districts, but Crowley lost, which was
Speaker 1: a big shot across the Bounty, and Democrats are all,
Speaker 1: oh gosh, you know, because the machine politics, the Democrat Party,
Speaker 1: the Hillary wing of the d n C, and the
Speaker 1: Democrat machine. He's like, whoa hold on a second, you know,
Speaker 1: where this is not how they're supposed to go. Those
Speaker 1: who raise big money, those who have the political connections,
Speaker 1: they're supposed to be the ones who win. And people
Speaker 1: are saying this is their canner, their Eric Cantor moment
Speaker 1: on the left where the grassroots can't be ignored everything else.
Speaker 1: But what I think is so interesting is that this candidate,
Speaker 1: Cortes is a a pretty radical leftist. She wants she
Speaker 1: she wants not just universal health care, but I think
Speaker 1: also universal child care. She is in favor of abolishing
Speaker 1: immigrations and customs enforcement, which I want to return to.
Speaker 1: What that? What does that even mean? What? What would
Speaker 1: we replace that with? She wants a federal guarantee of
Speaker 1: jobs for everyone. How would that even work? Free college?
Speaker 1: Of course that's now become Democrats talk about free college
Speaker 1: all the time. Democrats are the party of Santa Claus Olho.
Speaker 1: They don't want to call him sat nick because you
Speaker 1: know that sounds too religious and stuff. But they're the
Speaker 1: they're the party of free stuff. Who's gonna pay for it?
Speaker 1: Don't worry about it, you mean fat cats? Somebody else
Speaker 1: will not you. Uh. And she she also, i believe,
Speaker 1: is a pro universal basic income person. So she she
Speaker 1: wants the governm's gonna pay for your healthcare, pay for
Speaker 1: your school. Oh and housing too. She's a universal housing person.
Speaker 1: Do you have a right to housing, You have a
Speaker 1: right to school, You basically have a right to everything.
Speaker 1: And folks, this is getting real close to some of
Speaker 1: the stuff. And I'm gonna say the Soviet constitution, sovi
Speaker 1: constitution said you have certain weeks off. You know, you
Speaker 1: get everybody gets weeks off. Every he gets housing, everybody
Speaker 1: gets everything. You get a car, you get a car, right,
Speaker 1: everyone gets whatever they need. But as we know, there's
Speaker 1: a fundamental flaw and socialist thinking and socialist logic which
Speaker 1: is that it privileges the group over the individual, and
Speaker 1: it tries or it is inherently a refutation of self interest,
Speaker 1: which is a universal human constant. You are more interested
Speaker 1: in what you were doing in your day to day
Speaker 1: than what any group is up to. That's just a fact,
Speaker 1: that's just reality, right, And you are more more motivated
Speaker 1: by your own and this is not a bad thing,
Speaker 1: this is a good thing. This is the basis of
Speaker 1: human progress. You're more more motivated by what you are doing,
Speaker 1: what you're responsible for, than what other groups. And you know,
Speaker 1: historical grievances and all that stuff, and socialism doesn't take
Speaker 1: that into account. It is essentially based on lies and illusions.
Speaker 1: And we're now seeing a rise of more clear and
Speaker 1: and radical socialist tendencies with the Democratic Party, which I
Speaker 1: think is indicative of just how you know, just how
Speaker 1: far gone they are because of their Trump's arrangement syndrome.
Speaker 1: They really have two choices here, and I think this
Speaker 1: Crowley loss, although he was also pretty far left guy,
Speaker 1: but this Crowley loss is indicative of which path of
Speaker 1: Democrats are taking. Their choices are moderation centrism run candidates
Speaker 1: who served in the military. Run candidates who say their
Speaker 1: pro Second Amendment but anti assault rifles right, say there
Speaker 1: um in favor of life, but or they're personally pro
Speaker 1: life but policy pro choice right run these kind of
Speaker 1: hybrid head fake candidates. The Connor Lambs if you will
Speaker 1: or run these hard left Bernie Sanders wing free stuff
Speaker 1: for everybody, Nobody's gonna pay for it. Abolish Ice. This
Speaker 1: is something you're hearing now, This is this is becoming
Speaker 1: a talking point that's spreading. Abolish ICE. So so we
Speaker 1: are open borders. Then people say, oh, well, no border patrol,
Speaker 1: but yeah, we know that. But the border patrol has
Speaker 1: to hand people over and the processing of who's here
Speaker 1: legal and who's not as handled by ICE, immigrations and
Speaker 1: customs enforcement. And if you were to abolish ICE, I
Speaker 1: would I would note think what that would mean for
Speaker 1: drugs beingship in this country, for the cartels. You know this.
Speaker 1: This is which we're gonna talk about more in just
Speaker 1: a moment. But there is a a leftward lurch and
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party right now that is not to be ignored.
Speaker 1: And we should all remind ourselves, whatever imperfections you think
Speaker 1: the GOP has right now, whatever imperfections you think Donald
Speaker 1: Trump has, understand what the alternative is and understand what
Speaker 1: the stakes are. And I could not have been more
Speaker 1: serious when I said to you that Donald Trump's victory
Speaker 1: because of the implications for the Supreme Court could very
Speaker 1: well mean that hundreds of thousand millions of lives going
Speaker 1: forward will be saved. People will have lives that would
Speaker 1: have had their lives taken away because of what Trump
Speaker 1: can do. That is that is powerful, that is profound.
Speaker 1: It is a deeply meaningful reason to push and to
Speaker 1: fight for what is right and what you believe in. Remember,
Speaker 1: the other side is the radical party of abortion all
Speaker 1: nine months of a pregnancy. They are completely unreasonable. They
Speaker 1: are extremists on this issue. They are vicious in the
Speaker 1: protection of this and you will see that come up
Speaker 1: with this Supreme Court nomination fight. They are vicious over
Speaker 1: the issue of abortion, and they're also going to be
Speaker 1: more open about pushing these radical ideas, like in limitating
Speaker 1: immigration and customs enforcement. This is the this is the
Speaker 1: beginning of the dissolution of this country. When people start
Speaker 1: to start talking about getting rid of our southern border,
Speaker 1: what they're really saying is we're going to dissolve America
Speaker 1: as we know it. And that they're saying this openly now,
Speaker 1: not just two donors behind closed doors, and not just
Speaker 1: to whip people up into a frenzy on Twitter. That
Speaker 1: we are hearing this from people winning elections the Democrat
Speaker 1: Party is a sign of how troubling things are. Think
Speaker 1: about it this way. You know how crazy the anti
Speaker 1: trumpers are right now. Imagine what they'll be like if
Speaker 1: they actually get a taste of power again. Do you
Speaker 1: think that they're going to actors though they have been
Speaker 1: chasoned by Trump's victory over Hillary. Do you think that
Speaker 1: they're going to take the approach that they should try
Speaker 1: to bring us back. No, They're not gonna bring us
Speaker 1: back to the center. They are going all in in
Speaker 1: the opposite direction. They will do deeply destructive things to
Speaker 1: this country. The midterms are important. I'm not gonna sit
Speaker 1: here and say it's the most profound important every says
Speaker 1: about every election, right but this midterm election coming up
Speaker 1: is going to be very important for the reasons I'm stating,
Speaker 1: and I don't want us to lose sight of that.
Speaker 1: We'll have a lot more on the specific candidates, and
Speaker 1: I'll probably have some candidates, you know, calling it a joy.
Speaker 1: I really like this guy, uh Crenshaw, the Navy, the
Speaker 1: former Navy seal down in Texas. Get him to come
Speaker 1: on and join um. But we've got a lot of
Speaker 1: people to talk about talk to here on the show
Speaker 1: by the Way Hill dot TV slash rising tomorrow morning.
Speaker 1: We've got a tremendous line up a guest, so get
Speaker 1: ready for that. You can also watch it on demand
Speaker 1: anytime throughout the day, so I don't think you have
Speaker 1: to catch that live. And your Freedom Hut podcast will
Speaker 1: be out tomorrow. Um, sorry about the delay. I know
Speaker 1: I said today, but uh, you guys heard me almost
Speaker 1: pass out on air before. It's been very It's been
Speaker 1: very tiring week. I'm going from five am to nine
Speaker 1: pm pretty much without a break. Maybe I got an
Speaker 1: hour during the day to kind of regroup, set my
Speaker 1: engines back to neutral, kick back, relac and relax and
Speaker 1: let the good times role. So we've got more of
Speaker 1: that coming up eight four four to five, eight four
Speaker 1: nine hundred buck stay with me. The liberal tears today,
Speaker 1: we're flowing like a river. There was so much sadness
Speaker 1: and really rage all over social media over the Kennedy
Speaker 1: the Kennedy announcement because they know they're worried now and this,
Speaker 1: and they forgot very quickly about children were separated the
Speaker 1: border right all of a sudden, that goes rear view mirror. Folks,
Speaker 1: I thought that was the great moral crisis of our time.
Speaker 1: I thought that was modern Nazism. Oh no, no, Supreme
Speaker 1: Court vacancy opens up. Oh my gosh. A lot of cursing,
Speaker 1: by the way, as well, a lot of profanity. Liberals
Speaker 1: like to curse a lot. You know, I cursed in
Speaker 1: my private life, as some of you know. If you
Speaker 1: ever meet me and I start talking to you, I
Speaker 1: may drop a little salty language here, and they're not
Speaker 1: in a bad way. But you know, I think cursing
Speaker 1: can be a colorful part of discourse, but obviously not
Speaker 1: here on my show, and I've avoided it thus far.
Speaker 1: Some people have deserved me to curse at them publicly. Uh,
Speaker 1: some mainstream news folks have deserved me to have been
Speaker 1: deserving of a buck slap that could start with a
Speaker 1: you know, with with different letters and different words. Um,
Speaker 1: but I've I've refrained. But I'll just note that the
Speaker 1: left does not have any have that issue. By the way,
Speaker 1: the woman's name, because I wasn't trying to. I'm not
Speaker 1: somebody who makes fun of names. That's for clowns. Alexandria
Speaker 1: Ocasio Cortes was her name. So Ocasio Cortez is actually
Speaker 1: her last name. Oh, by the way, she wants to
Speaker 1: uh impeach Trump. Keep that in mind too, So we
Speaker 1: already know they're gonna try to do that, folks if
Speaker 1: they win the House. Not only will they try to
Speaker 1: keep abortion going no matter what, they're also gonna try
Speaker 1: to impeach the President United States, who is doing a
Speaker 1: great job for all Americans, no matter how much or whatever,
Speaker 1: if the country hates him. John and Delaware, you've got thoughts,
Speaker 1: we've got ears. Let's hear it. But how are you doing,
Speaker 1: shield side? Thank you for the call. I'm good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to mention the fact that I'm I mean,
Speaker 1: if Donald Trump does elect wanted his picks to the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court as a justice, what will the left really
Speaker 1: be able to do to stop it? Absolutely nothing, right, well,
Speaker 1: not necessarily, Um, they will cry about it for about
Speaker 1: It's yeah, they can, my friend, because there's something called
Speaker 1: weak Republicans out there. And if you have a few
Speaker 1: defections and already uh Collins for example, then there there's
Speaker 1: some Republicans in the Senate who are getting who were
Speaker 1: getting weak on this one, then you got a problem. Right.
Speaker 1: So that's how this becomes an issue. Um So that's
Speaker 1: what I think you need to keep in mind here.
Speaker 1: You know you got you got Murkowski, Collins Lake, any
Speaker 1: of them could be an issue. There's gonna be a fifty,
Speaker 1: fifty or fifte situation for this nomineque folks, John, thanks
Speaker 1: for calling in. It's good to clarify that point. Our
Speaker 1: three coming up. Information is power, and with Global Verification

Speaker 1: decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence. Make
Speaker 1: no mistake Americans. Ready great, You're a great American again.
Speaker 1: This is the buck Sexton Show for analysts. No, the
Speaker 1: rhetoric we hear from the other side on this issue,
Speaker 1: as on many others, has become radicalized. We hear views
Speaker 1: on television today and that are on the lunatic fringe Franklin.
Speaker 1: And what is perhaps more galling is the hippo hypocrisy.
Speaker 1: These same people live in gated communities, many of them,
Speaker 1: and are featured at events where you have to have
Speaker 1: an I d. To even come in and hear them speak.
Speaker 1: I like the little security around every says, and if
Speaker 1: you try to scale defense, and believe me, they have
Speaker 1: h be even too happy to have you arrested and
Speaker 1: separated from your children if I would like to say that,
Speaker 1: so they won't borders in their lives but not in yours.
Speaker 1: Turn in general, Sessions is totally spot on when it
Speaker 1: comes issue of border board security. And I know that
Speaker 1: there have been some issues with him and with the
Speaker 1: administration because of his recusal decision from the Russia probe.
Speaker 1: But by the way, I think that Russia probe is
Speaker 1: gonna be over by the end of this year. I
Speaker 1: don't think there's not a meaning that the the meaningful
Speaker 1: part of it. For political stuff. They can keep talking
Speaker 1: about Russian Facebook trolls and all that's that's not I'm
Speaker 1: talking about looking at Trump collusion and Trump campaign collusion.
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be over by the end of
Speaker 1: the year. So the nightmare will end, folks, I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure of it. Got some sources here in DC either
Speaker 1: telling me they're at that phase. I've even heard from
Speaker 1: some never Trumper deep never Trumper deep state types that
Speaker 1: they realize now there and they're not. There's no they're there,
Speaker 1: and we've I've known this all long, You've known this
Speaker 1: all long, and they're gonna figure this out. But isn't
Speaker 1: it remarkable to see how quickly the liberals have shifted
Speaker 1: from the most important issue of of of our of
Speaker 1: our time right now, the the internment camps, the prisons
Speaker 1: for babies, the Nazism, all these horrible, overstated, exaggerated, just
Speaker 1: untrue things that they've been saying about what's going on
Speaker 1: on the border. Isn't it fascinating to see that now
Speaker 1: that there are judges and there's a judge ship at
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court on the line, we kind of forget
Speaker 1: about the border. Well, I'm not forgetting about the border.
Speaker 1: And there's a part of this that does not get
Speaker 1: nearly enough attention, and that is these human smuggling networks
Speaker 1: that are bringing these people into the country, bring them
Speaker 1: up to the border. Remember, a lot of these quote
Speaker 1: migrants that are being caught and then are subject to
Speaker 1: family separation, they've already gotten into American that they've crossed
Speaker 1: in illegal in American charactory and they've been picked up.
Speaker 1: Some of them are being grabbed at checkpoints. And then
Speaker 1: you're seeing liberals say, oh my gosh, we have checkpoints. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's right, we have checkpoints to stop people from illegally
Speaker 1: coming into the country. That's why they exist. We went
Speaker 1: from don't separate families to don't detain families. It's like, well,
Speaker 1: if you don't detain families, guess what you've got. Effectively
Speaker 1: that you've got a porous border. Maybe they'll say it's
Speaker 1: not open, but it's poorest. This means all you have
Speaker 1: to do is find the opening in it. But the
Speaker 1: car tells have a hand in this, and this is
Speaker 1: being downplayed because this the narrative has to be at
Speaker 1: our border for the for the left to get their way,
Speaker 1: for the Democrat Party to be successful in its demagoguery here,
Speaker 1: and it's propagandizing on issues of the border. They have
Speaker 1: to make sure people don't realize that the cartels are
Speaker 1: making hundreds of millions of dollars that right, hundreds of
Speaker 1: millions smuggling people in the United States. It's not really
Speaker 1: that hard when you think about the numbers here, right,
Speaker 1: you got tens of thousands, maybe you know, hundreds of
Speaker 1: thousands of illegal crossings. A lot of them are you know,
Speaker 1: are through coyotes. Right, that's the way to do it.
Speaker 1: And the coyotes are just the human smugglers that are gonna,
Speaker 1: at a minimum, have to be paying off the cartels,
Speaker 1: if not actively working for the cartels, which means the
Speaker 1: cartels are making money either way. The political violence in
Speaker 1: Mexico right now also something that no one seems to
Speaker 1: really want to get into. Is completely out of control.
Speaker 1: And at least there's five Mexican states UH, Mika, Khan, Sinaloa, Guerrero, Talma, Lipas,
Speaker 1: and Kalima that the State Department has issued do not
Speaker 1: travel advisories for. And the violence that has occurred recently,
Speaker 1: even UH involves assassinations against politicians. Oh, almost thirty thousand
Speaker 1: people killed last year. You're probably gonna break thirty thousand
Speaker 1: murders this year. In Mexico. Cartel violence totally out of control.
Speaker 1: Cartels are more powerful than they have ever been, and
Speaker 1: this border issue right now is enriching them through the
Speaker 1: human smuggling and through the drug smuggling that yes, is
Speaker 1: a part of the illegal immigrant pipelines into this country.
Speaker 1: So think about all the ways that Mexico is causing
Speaker 1: real problems for us. Forget about just the economic stuff
Speaker 1: and the economic drain and all that. Look at the
Speaker 1: security issues. Okay, Mexico has cartels that are running out
Speaker 1: of control right now. Mexico is bringing illegals into our country,
Speaker 1: including illegals who then go off and either join or
Speaker 1: recruit for gangs like m S thirteen that all also
Speaker 1: have cartel connections and they're bringing drugs into the country
Speaker 1: that lead to thousands and thousands of overdose deaths a year,
Speaker 1: and all we're hearing about the only part of the
Speaker 1: story that we're allowed to talk about is teary eyed
Speaker 1: children being separated from their parents. Were not allowed to
Speaker 1: look at the other issues here. Now, look, I'm I
Speaker 1: think you know, yeah, to detain the family detained process
Speaker 1: and send them back right away, keep them together, make
Speaker 1: sure that they're actually a family first, but keeping together,
Speaker 1: bind ways to do this. You know, eighty five percent
Speaker 1: plus the American people are in favor of that. Okay, Um,
Speaker 1: you know that the system, the system was being exploited
Speaker 1: by illegals. The illegals essentially broke the system. They overran
Speaker 1: our border fortifications, so to speak, and now we're fixing it.
Speaker 1: They chose to overrun with those So this whole thing
Speaker 1: of oh, we're so evil and we're the Nazis, it's garbage.
Speaker 1: That's that's unfair, it's not true. And now we're gonna
Speaker 1: be detaining families. But we have this other component of
Speaker 1: this that needs to get much more of our focus.
Speaker 1: And look, Jeff Sessions is really good on these immigration issues.
Speaker 1: He does not waiver He does not back down. He
Speaker 1: understands the issues backwards and forwards. I think it's why
Speaker 1: he's still in this role, by the way, because as
Speaker 1: much as Trump may be frustrated over the Russia collusion
Speaker 1: probe and how Sessions recused himself from it, as much
Speaker 1: as he may feel that frustration, the fact of the
Speaker 1: matter is that Sessions on policy maybe Trump's most important
Speaker 1: single player after Mattis at Defense, who has been relatively
Speaker 1: quiet recently we have been hearing all that much about.
Speaker 1: But Sessions is on the front line here of the
Speaker 1: immigration issue, and I think is doing a very very
Speaker 1: good job. By the way, the the compromised bill today
Speaker 1: in the Commerce just fell flat in its face. And
Speaker 1: the compromised bill was like the pudgy kid who's got
Speaker 1: the T shirt sunburn, who does a belly flop into
Speaker 1: the shallow end of the swimming pool. You know, it
Speaker 1: just was a mess, and we knew that was gonna happen,
Speaker 1: So that didn't go anywhere. The fact is that within
Speaker 1: the Republican Party there's still a real split over what
Speaker 1: our immigration priority should be. What the most important thing
Speaker 1: is that can be accomplished, uh through before immigration, through
Speaker 1: immigration so you know, we we need to have a
Speaker 1: continued focus on this and and I think that you know,
Speaker 1: the good news is that we don't. While we don't
Speaker 1: have a wall, we've got a Supreme Court nomination that's
Speaker 1: hanging in the balance. So that's gonna get turned out.
Speaker 1: That's gonna consolidate the GLP, that's gonna consolidate Conservatives and
Speaker 1: Republicans going to these mid terms. But man, for Trump's reelection,
Speaker 1: I'm just looking kind of far out of things. But
Speaker 1: for Trump's reelection, we need that wall, need to get
Speaker 1: that wall up, and that has to happen. So I
Speaker 1: think that's very very important for us to keep an eye.
Speaker 1: But this this cartel issue, I'm telling you, this is
Speaker 1: a this is a major national news story. The cartels
Speaker 1: are flushed with ash, not just from drugs but also
Speaker 1: from human smuggling. Remember six or seven thousand dollars of person.
Speaker 1: How many thousands of people need to give you six
Speaker 1: or seven grand before you've made a lot of money.
Speaker 1: Not very many, And it's probably tens of thousands, might
Speaker 1: be over a hundred thousand people that are paying, and
Speaker 1: some of them pay more, probably have to pay per
Speaker 1: head for their whole family. So because we don't have
Speaker 1: a secure border, because we don't have a wall, the
Speaker 1: drug cartels that are sawing people's heads off, like Al
Speaker 1: Qaeda back in the day, are rich beyond people's wildest
Speaker 1: imaginations and are a real threat to Mexico's national security
Speaker 1: and even the national elections which are set for July first, folks,
Speaker 1: exuding a lot of pressure there, so keep an eye
Speaker 1: on the cartels and the human smuggling networks. Don't let
Speaker 1: the media just tell you about all the valedictorian docca, Folks,
Speaker 1: I've got a lot more comments. Stay with me. Nine

Speaker 1: Today was a fantastic fulfillment of Osama bin Laden's vision
Speaker 1: by Donald J. Trump. What Osama bin Laden was a
Speaker 1: war of civilization, a war between the West and one
Speaker 1: billion Muslims. And so what Donald Trump in this Muslim
Speaker 1: band signal to the world is that Muslims are not
Speaker 1: welcome here. Oh my gosh. Steve Schmidt is like on
Speaker 1: a he's on a on a terror this week. He
Speaker 1: is you know them, you know, remember the old Doseki's
Speaker 1: guy stay thirsty, my friend, the good one, not the
Speaker 1: one they replaced him with who was terrible, right, I
Speaker 1: mean the original one, right, that Doseki's guy. Uh, And
Speaker 1: he was the most interesting man in the world. Steve
Speaker 1: Schmidt seems to be trying to be the most the
Speaker 1: most idiotic pundit in the world this week. And you know,
Speaker 1: I've heard people say it's this is not personal. I've
Speaker 1: heard people say he's actually a nice guy. I don't
Speaker 1: know him, so this isn't this is not I'll always
Speaker 1: tell you when I don't like somebody. By the way,
Speaker 1: it's not that I don't like Steve Schmand. I don't
Speaker 1: know him. But what he says hang on air is terrible. Uh.
Speaker 1: It's terrible in a good way because it's fun to
Speaker 1: come in here and make fun of. But this is
Speaker 1: the guy who yesterday we had him on air talking
Speaker 1: about how you know North Korea in Venezuela, in Cuba,
Speaker 1: you know, they don't have they don't have concentration cares
Speaker 1: for little kids at the border. Like reader, You're like, dude,
Speaker 1: come or it wasn't what he said Venezuela and Cuban
Speaker 1: on North Korea. But it's just crazy stuff. Now he's
Speaker 1: talking about Donald Trump implementing Bin Laden's vision. Folks, I
Speaker 1: can assure you, okay, I can assure you that ge hottests,
Speaker 1: when they have their pick, would rather have a far
Speaker 1: left progressive democrat to deal with or just a Democrat period.
Speaker 1: Than anyone are you on the right because on the
Speaker 1: far left, on the Democrat side of the aisle, what
Speaker 1: you have when it comes to Gee hot is Um,
Speaker 1: which is a subject that I will be returning to
Speaker 1: here on the show when it's more in the news cycle.
Speaker 1: And notice has kind of dropped it would dropped down right,
Speaker 1: not not really get much attention these days, but the
Speaker 1: left makes all kinds of contorted and convoluted uh explanations
Speaker 1: for jeehot is Um. The left is constantly finding ways
Speaker 1: to blame America for the rise of jeehot is Um.
Speaker 1: Although you did have Ben Rhodes and you know, with
Speaker 1: just the crazy news cycle this week, I didn't get
Speaker 1: a chance to address it. Rhoades said something along the
Speaker 1: lines of, well, to be fair, I just saw the headlines.
Speaker 1: I didn't even get to dig into it. But talking
Speaker 1: about the obamaministration policy in Syria and whether they realized
Speaker 1: it or not, there was a an arming of bad
Speaker 1: guys that went on, you know, of ge hottest because
Speaker 1: by trying to arm people. Initially there was that Pentagon
Speaker 1: program and you know they're trying to build a Syrian
Speaker 1: a Syrian anti assad force that I mean, they spent
Speaker 1: five million dollars I think, and they trained five guys
Speaker 1: and the weapons all disappeared, and that went to get
Speaker 1: a lot of that ended up in Gehodes Tans. But
Speaker 1: the the Obama administration is a perfect example of trying
Speaker 1: to play Kate implacable enemies, and it's a terrible idea.
Speaker 1: It never works. But for somebody to go on MSNBC
Speaker 1: and say that Trump is implementing bi Lan's vision, this
Speaker 1: is just another version of the stupid talking point you here.
Speaker 1: And it's in fact one of the root fallacies of
Speaker 1: our fights against Islamic extremism around the world. And the
Speaker 1: root fallacy is the cause of jihoti is um is
Speaker 1: the fighting against it. You see, I can play this game.
Speaker 1: In fact, I had to take the opposite end of
Speaker 1: this argument because it's the right one. At CNN when
Speaker 1: there was always some of you. I wish we even
Speaker 1: had the clip right now after the nice massacre at
Speaker 1: CNN when some lunatic Islamic g hottest. Uh that's repetitive,
Speaker 1: I know, but some Islamic extremists ran over almost eight people.
Speaker 1: If I recalled just murdering mass murder of people with
Speaker 1: a truck on Bastie Day, which is there great day
Speaker 1: of national celebration. And I went on CNN and one
Speaker 1: I was the fourth person in the panel, and one
Speaker 1: for another, each one of them, each one of them said, well,
Speaker 1: you know the problem. I mean, the bodies were still
Speaker 1: on the ground, folks, okay, And each one of them
Speaker 1: was saying and it was a former you know, a
Speaker 1: former c I a guy like me, uh although former
Speaker 1: CIA from like twenty some odd years ago, I think,
Speaker 1: a couple of generals, and and then an academic who
Speaker 1: that you know where that's gonna go a quote academic
Speaker 1: on radical Islam. Academics and radical Islam tend to write
Speaker 1: papers about how like, I mean, are they really that radical?
Speaker 1: But but their whole line on what was going on
Speaker 1: in Nice was that this was the result of Europe's
Speaker 1: poor ability to integrate Muslims into its society. I mean,
Speaker 1: mass murder of almost entirely you know, French, Christian or
Speaker 1: secular Europeans. And the response is, well, they don't do
Speaker 1: a good enough job. This is what you're seeing on
Speaker 1: TV on a major from network. And this is part
Speaker 1: of why I just I just couldn't do it anymore.
Speaker 1: I think I've told you before, and there's a there's
Speaker 1: This is also why you may occasionally see out there
Speaker 1: some hostility directed very much at me from people at
Speaker 1: CNN because I left, And that's not supposed to happen.
Speaker 1: Right when you're brought in there and they want to
Speaker 1: keep you around, you are supposed to be grateful because
Speaker 1: it's who it's CNN, right. I left because I thought
Speaker 1: it was gross. I just didn't like I didn't like
Speaker 1: what was going on over there. I didn't think it
Speaker 1: was honest. I didn't think I didn't think there was
Speaker 1: any integrity in it. And so that makes me a
Speaker 1: marked man over there now, which is fine, whatever, bring
Speaker 1: it a bunch of whims. But with this is a
Speaker 1: perfect example. On TV, they have all these different people.
Speaker 1: They're taking this position during after a mass casualty terrorist attack,
Speaker 1: that we are the cause of it. That's a Democrat thinking,
Speaker 1: that's left wing thinking, and and you see it with
Speaker 1: with attack after attack, and it's always either our fault
Speaker 1: or well, it's our fault. And and one of the
Speaker 1: primary reasons that's our fault is that we tried to
Speaker 1: do something to stop it. That wasn't so much the
Speaker 1: case and the nice attack, but it's been the case
Speaker 1: in countless other left wing variations on the oh terrorism
Speaker 1: is is our fault theme. In fact, on nine eleven,
Speaker 1: I remember hearing professors when I was in college, and
Speaker 1: I mean on nine eleven on the day, get up
Speaker 1: in front of the whole school and say, this is
Speaker 1: what happens when you make people angry. Oh, people have
Speaker 1: moments in their lives when they realize what they believe
Speaker 1: in who they are. And I was like, okay, so
Speaker 1: I'm a patriot and a conservative and these people in
Speaker 1: this room, I don't know what they're I don't know
Speaker 1: what they are, but we're not on the same team, folks.
Speaker 1: It's also when I started to think maybe I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go join the c I am in retrospect, I wish
Speaker 1: I joined the military, but see I was a good
Speaker 1: second choice, good good second best. Uh. But anyway, So,
Speaker 1: so for Schmidt to say that Trump is implementing bin
Speaker 1: Laden's vision, this is just crazy. First of all, it
Speaker 1: doesn't even deal with the fact that North Korea is
Speaker 1: on this list. Venezuela is on this list. And you
Speaker 1: know what, you know what the real the real truth,
Speaker 1: this is the world doesn't really care. They've got other
Speaker 1: things to think about. What we're so worried about not
Speaker 1: getting enough not not getting enough foot traffic from you know,
Speaker 1: Yemen and Sudan. There are a case by case waivers, uh,
Speaker 1: the whole policies under review. Those countries can make all
Speaker 1: this go away if they just get better vetting procedures,
Speaker 1: as some countries already have. Anyone who wants to look
Speaker 1: at this, it's actually entirely reasonable. They're countries that were
Speaker 1: picked out by the Obama administration as security threats. So
Speaker 1: I don't know, did did Trump have a time machine
Speaker 1: go back in time and make Obama's people pick out
Speaker 1: these countries as security threats? Yeah? I just I understand
Speaker 1: the need that people look at people got put food
Speaker 1: on the table. You know you're gonna go on MSNBC.
Speaker 1: You're gonna say some crazy left wing stuff. I get it, right,
Speaker 1: I understand that's what you're or or you're gonna be
Speaker 1: a quote conservative who's like Donald Trump is hitler. I'm
Speaker 1: the real conservative. Yeah. I don't know about that. I
Speaker 1: don't know about any as I've said to you, anyone
Speaker 1: who claims to be a conservative who is out there
Speaker 1: and now saying that they will vote for the Party
Speaker 1: of abortion, the party of of of death in so
Speaker 1: many ways. Uh, it's it's just it's a disgrace, it
Speaker 1: really is. But Schmidt, I don't know. I'm sorry. At
Speaker 1: some point, I'm sure we're gonna get to meet each other.
Speaker 1: And maybe he's a nice guy, but dumbest, dumbest stuff
Speaker 1: I've heard on TV all week, maybe all month. And
Speaker 1: he's really in a class by himself on this one.
Speaker 1: Uh and and does not know what the heck he's
Speaker 1: talking about. With Bin Laden's vision should should stick to,
Speaker 1: you know, running and picking political candidates like Sarah palin
Speaker 1: As VP, because that was a great idea. Uh yeah. So,
Speaker 1: by the way, we're gonna have a buddy of mine.
Speaker 1: Well I don't know him, but we're gonna be buddies
Speaker 1: because he's gonna call in. It's not really a buddy man,
Speaker 1: because I don't know him and I've never even met him.
Speaker 1: But Andy Sullivan will be joining. He's a union member.
Speaker 1: I just wanted a union guy to fall and tell
Speaker 1: me what he thinks about the Spreme Court decision. I
Speaker 1: want a union pursue a union perspective. One day so
Speaker 1: we're gonna get a union perspective in just a few minutes.
Speaker 1: He's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton his back.
Speaker 1: All right. So we've talked about this huge decision today
Speaker 1: from the Supreme Court at the progressive left is saying,
Speaker 1: oh no, it's going to gut public sector unions. What
Speaker 1: will we ever do? Well? What is the truth of
Speaker 1: public sector unions and union life in general in this
Speaker 1: country these days? We've got somebody who can give you
Speaker 1: an insider perspective. Andy Sullivan is with us now. He
Speaker 1: is a twenty year union member and former leader of
Speaker 1: nine eleven Hard Hats, and he thanks for joining us. Thanks,
Speaker 1: I appreciate you having me. Just give me your your
Speaker 1: your quick reaction, uh to tonight's or today's Supreme Court
Speaker 1: justice decision? What do you think about the public sector
Speaker 1: unions no longer being able to force people to pay
Speaker 1: dues whether they want to or not. You know what,
Speaker 1: I'm actually not against it, and I'm going to tell
Speaker 1: you why when you're talking about public sector unions. To me,
Speaker 1: I think is is really not legitimate. I've been a
Speaker 1: private union member for the better part of almost three decades,
Speaker 1: and there is a huge difference and level of performance
Speaker 1: that you need to adhere to when you compare the
Speaker 1: two industries. I mean, in the public sector union you really,
Speaker 1: I mean you really got to screw up to get
Speaker 1: laid off or get fired. And meanwhile, in private sector
Speaker 1: union world, if you're not pulling your weight every single
Speaker 1: hour of every single day, you are eliminated immediately. We
Speaker 1: have people walking around with checks in their pocket. It's
Speaker 1: just ready to write you a check if you can't
Speaker 1: carry your own weight. So there's a bit of animosity
Speaker 1: between the private union sector industr Tree and the public
Speaker 1: union sect the industry. I think it was even FDR
Speaker 1: who said he thought it would be a terrible idea
Speaker 1: to unionize the public sector. And you know what, we
Speaker 1: are a few things I agree with FDR. So so
Speaker 1: you think this is the right the right call, the
Speaker 1: right decision. Do you think this is going to have
Speaker 1: an impact on private sector unions now, now that this
Speaker 1: has been seen by the court as an issue of
Speaker 1: free speech, do you see any trickle down? Do you
Speaker 1: see any crossover? Yeah? I do, But you know what, bucket,
Speaker 1: this has been uh an ongoing thing ever since Reagan
Speaker 1: back in the eighties, with the Patco uh air traffic
Speaker 1: control of strike. As soon as private unions became this
Speaker 1: single party entity and basically a political arm of the
Speaker 1: left union ship and its territory has dwindled year after year.
Speaker 1: I mean, here in New York City, where I'm from,
Speaker 1: the territory used to be about thirty seven per cent
Speaker 1: of all construction that was taking place in New York
Speaker 1: City was a union stronghold. Now if you look at
Speaker 1: it today, we're into single single digits, you know. And
Speaker 1: I attribute that whole entire decline and the fact that
Speaker 1: we've become so politically politicized, which was wrong because you
Speaker 1: talked to most union guys, well over fifty of union
Speaker 1: workers hold conservative beliefs. But here they are, we're we're
Speaker 1: kind of painted into a corner and we're told we
Speaker 1: have to vote for the d n C candidate because
Speaker 1: he's the guy who's looking out for the unions. And
Speaker 1: I said to myself, really is that the case? Because
Speaker 1: here in New York the proof is definitely not in
Speaker 1: the pudding, because we're losing territory every single day and
Speaker 1: we're totally dominant, dominated by the Democratic Party. Yeah, why
Speaker 1: is that? I mean, let me you know what, what
Speaker 1: is there's a historical affinity between the left and organized
Speaker 1: labor in this country, but up to up to the
Speaker 1: current day, what do you attribute the dominance? I mean,
Speaker 1: this is why the Democrats are so upset about this.
Speaker 1: They view unions as a Democrat constituency. But given what
Speaker 1: you're telling me, you know, yeah, I've I've met steel workers,
Speaker 1: you know, who are culturally conservative guys. You know, I've
Speaker 1: I've met people that are working construction crews and people
Speaker 1: that are doing things that are cover under unions and
Speaker 1: and they're not you know, progressive Silicon Valley style Democrats
Speaker 1: to say the least. But they have to vote Democrat.
Speaker 1: What's going on? Yeah, absolutely correct. And even in some
Speaker 1: of these unions, they actually take the money out of
Speaker 1: your paycheck. They call it dues or sees, and they
Speaker 1: will take money you've worked for and they will just
Speaker 1: forward it right to whatever the latest Democratic uh political
Speaker 1: election is coming up. So in many cases, a lot
Speaker 1: of the union guys don't even have say in where
Speaker 1: their funds are going politically, and that's a problem. Now,
Speaker 1: what's what's begin to happen. It's it's basically like death
Speaker 1: by a thousand cuts, you know, with the project labor
Speaker 1: agreements and with the declining agreements where they do instead
Speaker 1: of a hundred percent of your mechanics pay, they're doing
Speaker 1: of your mechanics pay. Now, all of a sudden, we
Speaker 1: have an A rate and a B rate. Also, you
Speaker 1: want to keep working, you gotta work for the B rate.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is amazing. Everything is going forward except
Speaker 1: the union's wages. We've got tradesmen out there that's been
Speaker 1: doing this that their professional trades for less twenty five years,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden are getting paid like a third
Speaker 1: year apprentice. You know, it's grateful. Now, what do you
Speaker 1: what do you when people say, you know, maybe unions
Speaker 1: no longer have a place in a in a globalized economy,
Speaker 1: unions are are destructive too many industries they're in. What's
Speaker 1: your response to that sentiment? You know, buck Very, you
Speaker 1: know I've spoken on this subject a lot, and this
Speaker 1: is my biggest thing. If we could just get the
Speaker 1: GOP to realize that they have a treasure trove of
Speaker 1: conservatives that are union workers that would vote for the
Speaker 1: Republican candidate. But you can't come out against the unions,
Speaker 1: you know, with with UH with all of this energy
Speaker 1: and momentum, we would be welcoming to have the GOP
Speaker 1: come back into the folks to deep politicize the whole
Speaker 1: union infrastructure because right now, but it's being run like
Speaker 1: a soft dictatorship. If you agree with whatever the union
Speaker 1: leadership says, you know what happens to you, you don't
Speaker 1: do all the time. Maybe you'll go to the next
Speaker 1: job I can, and then you have nowhere to appeal.
Speaker 1: There's not an opposing party that you could go to
Speaker 1: and plead your taste too. I hear you, man, Well,
Speaker 1: look and we really appreciate getting perspective for someone who's
Speaker 1: actually in a union. Thank you so much, sir, appreciate
Speaker 1: your time any time, Buck, good luck, Andy Sullivan, everybody,
Speaker 1: former eleven nine uh, former leader of not eleven Hard
Speaker 1: Hats and a twenty year union member. We are going
Speaker 1: to come back into Roll Call here in just a moment.
Speaker 1: I'd like I'd like to bring on diverse voices from
Speaker 1: various perspectives on this show. And uh, there you have it.
Speaker 1: And we talked about unions. I feel like we should
Speaker 1: get guy whos actually in a union and join. Although
Speaker 1: I know a lot of you listener, probably in unions,
Speaker 1: and you can light it up on roll call, not
Speaker 1: for this addition, but for tomorrow's if you want let
Speaker 1: me know what you think about all this, Let me
Speaker 1: know what you think about unions in general. I want
Speaker 1: to know team and uh, we'll be right back. Hey,
Speaker 1: Team Buck, it's time for roll call. Oh yeah, roll
Speaker 1: call Tom Falling a roll call. That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: Loving the role. Okay, I'm sorry the dubstep gets me
Speaker 1: fired up. Yes it does does. Indeed, one day I'll

Speaker 1: up and that's amazing, and I would like to use
Speaker 1: my y'all pass. But as a as a just I'm
Speaker 1: about as Yankee as Yankee gets, even though I hold
Speaker 1: politics much more similar to many of my Southern brothers
Speaker 1: and sisters. Uh. And you know I have family in
Speaker 1: in the South. In fact, I've got I've got family
Speaker 1: right now in Charlottesville, Virginia. So you know there's there's
Speaker 1: some there's some Southern ties to the Buck. All right,
Speaker 1: enough of me, let's get into you roll call Facebook
Speaker 1: dot com, slash Buck section. Oh, the Freedom Hut podcast, guys,
Speaker 1: Just so you know, it's gonna be tomorrow, and I
Speaker 1: think we're gonna make it a Thursday. It is gonna
Speaker 1: be weekly, come hell or high water, but I think
Speaker 1: we're gonna have it be a Thursday release just because
Speaker 1: of life and things and all the work. But I've
Speaker 1: got some really cool ideas for that that are going
Speaker 1: into it already, and the best martial arts movies for example.

Speaker 1: It's not Remember, it's not gonna be news based. It's
Speaker 1: just gonna be It's kind of like Deep Thoughts with
Speaker 1: Jack Handy, except not that good job Buck, good good description.
Speaker 1: Okay uh. In the roll call, you remember Facebook dot
Speaker 1: com slash buck Sexton. Whoops, hold on a second, I
Speaker 1: just made them all disappear right on time. There Michael
Speaker 1: sends me, Bob, you might have to to rethink you're
Speaker 1: a statement that fly kicks are useless, and he sent
Speaker 1: me a video of a guy taking out a violent
Speaker 1: homeless man with an impressive flying kick. Michael, I'm not
Speaker 1: saying it never works. I'm just saying it's low probability.
Speaker 1: You know, the fly kick is kind of like the
Speaker 1: three pointer from five ft beyond the arc. You can
Speaker 1: hit it, and if you do, it's amazing. But I
Speaker 1: wouldn't exactly base your game around that one, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. That's that's what how I view fly kicks. Also,
Speaker 1: I'm at the age where the notion of a fly
Speaker 1: kick to the head just makes me think, Hammi poll,
Speaker 1: like my hamstring is gonna get ripped in half. So
Speaker 1: there's that. Brian. Next up here, Brian writes, I do
Speaker 1: not turn to MSNBC for my theology. Belief that Christ
Speaker 1: is the Son of God is all it takes. The
Speaker 1: thief on the cross did nothing but believe, and he
Speaker 1: joined Christ in heaven. Brian, A very good reminder, A
Speaker 1: good reminder after all the things that were going on
Speaker 1: in this country, around the world, of of what's really
Speaker 1: in Bordan, So thank you, sir, t J. Next up
Speaker 1: your buck, What do you think can we should we
Speaker 1: turn the Supreme Court vacancy into a voting issue for November.
Speaker 1: I know we don't need any elections to get a
Speaker 1: justice through, but perhaps there's some sort of angle we
Speaker 1: can take to bolster turnout in November. Thoughts Well, t J,
Speaker 1: I think you are correct as uh, this is a
Speaker 1: strategy that will help, but turn out, I do not
Speaker 1: believe given that the Supreme Court vacancy is now going
Speaker 1: to be this is going to be the most epic
Speaker 1: political fight since well Trump v. Hillary certainly, but in
Speaker 1: some ways it'll be even more because they thought they
Speaker 1: had that one. You know, you have to remember that
Speaker 1: there there wasn't a desperation on the left. There was
Speaker 1: an arrogance on the left when it came to Hillary
Speaker 1: versus Trump. And now not only is Trump having a
Speaker 1: an incredibly successful presidency, which I am here I Trump,
Speaker 1: I can't The guy is amazing. He's amazing. I don't
Speaker 1: know what else to say. And I was not a
Speaker 1: an original true believer, and you know, I'm sure they're
Speaker 1: gonna be things where he disappoints me. He's human. He's
Speaker 1: in peror. I get all that right. There's some stuff
Speaker 1: that I wish you'd do a little differently, but overall,
Speaker 1: he's amazing. I know what else to say? What he's
Speaker 1: doing for the country. You know what he's doing for you.
Speaker 1: Tell me what industry you're in, and I can point
Speaker 1: to it and say, most likely unless you're in like
Speaker 1: the you know, biofuels, or unless you're you know, relying
Speaker 1: on massive government subsidies for your crappy solar panel company,
Speaker 1: and you're probably doing better. And it's because of what
Speaker 1: this president has been pushing, because the tone that he
Speaker 1: has set, and t J I always loving you send
Speaker 1: a message because you've got an old school Shields high
Speaker 1: T shirt. So there you go. Alan, Next up here,
Speaker 1: you right when you were talking about being a ventriloquous
Speaker 1: act with Hillary Clinton. I almost got sick think of
Speaker 1: out where your hand would have to go. Yuck, Allan,
Speaker 1: get your get your head out of the gutter, sir,
Speaker 1: good gosh, Alan, your gross? Why are you so naughty?
Speaker 1: Alan shouldn't be thinking about where he's putting the hand
Speaker 1: on the Hillary doll. That's right, Alan should not be
Speaker 1: thinking about that. Next up here, Brandon Buck love your shows,
Speaker 1: Brandon loves your taste in shows. What are your thoughts
Speaker 1: on the Supreme Court decision on Janice v ass Me. Well,
Speaker 1: as you know, Brendon, I've been talking about it on
Speaker 1: the show today, so we've we've dealt with that one.
Speaker 1: I'm excited to leave the union and not pay union
Speaker 1: dudes for a liberal union that I disagree with. Shields Hie,
Speaker 1: there we go some union representation on the show. Indeed, indeed,
Speaker 1: sir um, thanks for writing in. Daniel Buck, listen to

Speaker 1: swastika's drawn in dust on my car, called a baby killer,
Speaker 1: a d bag warmonger, war criminal. I have seen bricks
Speaker 1: through windows of recruiting stations and seeing hateful epithets spray
Speaker 1: painted on windows. Just remember We'll always hate you nineteen
Speaker 1: sixty nine, No try circle two thousand and five and
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven during the surge civility. Indeed, well, Daniel,
Speaker 1: first of all, thank you for serving our country. And
Speaker 1: second of all, I'm just you know, there's some things
Speaker 1: that happen and as an American, you just you, even
Speaker 1: if you have nothing to do with it, you oppose
Speaker 1: it with every five of you being You're just embarrassed
Speaker 1: that another so called American would do it. And anyone
Speaker 1: who shows disrespect to our troops, that's day they fall
Speaker 1: into that category. They I'm embarrassed as an American that
Speaker 1: an American would ever do that. Uh. And we know
Speaker 1: that anti troops sentiment is overwhelmingly from the left. It's
Speaker 1: not an act there. And folks, maybe it's a conversation.
Speaker 1: We'll have more another time. George. Hey, George, I think
Speaker 1: you're a first time you're here in the roll call.
Speaker 1: Hey Buck, glad you're one of the new generation of conservatives.
Speaker 1: Please check out Charlie Reese columns. He brought me into
Speaker 1: the into uh the conservative movement. He has gone now,
Speaker 1: but please read a few of his columns. George, I
Speaker 1: have never heard of Charlie Reese. So on your say, so,
Speaker 1: I will check it out. Um, so here we go. Oh,
Speaker 1: by the way, for sometimes people write to me and
Speaker 1: they and then they write again and they think that
Speaker 1: I'm not reading. I read everything in the EMOX. I
Speaker 1: can't always respond to everything in the emox though, because
Speaker 1: we get hundreds and hundreds now thousands and thousands of messages.
Speaker 1: So I'm reading it all, um, I'm reading it all,
Speaker 1: and I'm you know, making sure that I get back
Speaker 1: to it as quickly as I can, as often as
Speaker 1: I can. Um, So just remember that, everyone, all right. Uh,
Speaker 1: Next up here is Melissa Melissa Rights Love the podcast
Speaker 1: Being Behind. I just heard the discussion on martial arts. Uh,
Speaker 1: you might want to look into Shaolin Kempo Karate, which
Speaker 1: incorporates three advanced martial arts styles, karate, kung fu, and
Speaker 1: jiu jitsu. It provides a very good set of real
Speaker 1: life situational skills. Have seen lots of good for Kraftmaga
Speaker 1: to e Er. A nurse friend has had to use
Speaker 1: it to defend against violent drug addicted patients brought in
Speaker 1: for treatment. Hey, guys, I wasn't hating on all martial arts.
Speaker 1: I was just comparing. First of all, I don't know,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm a I'm not even a dilettante. I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know, an observer from afar in the martial arts world.
Speaker 1: I'm the equivalent of the guy who's way up in
Speaker 1: the football stands, like way way up, who's scarfing a
Speaker 1: bunch of you know, pretzels covered in mustard. Was like, gah,
Speaker 1: touchdown in the end zone. You stink, Manning, you stink.
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, no, he doesn't stinking, And I
Speaker 1: definitely couldn't have thrown that touchdown. So I'm that guy
Speaker 1: in martial arts, like, I'm the guy that has no
Speaker 1: basis saying anything really except I read a lot um.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's absolutely true that some martial arts are
Speaker 1: very exactly perfect. Uh, team, make sure you subscribe. The
Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt podcast go on iTunes, is also on Stitcher.

Speaker 1: what's the first thing your dog does when you let
Speaker 1: hammer her out of the yard? Might be digging. Now,

Speaker 1: moment until you realize, one they're putting a hole in
Speaker 1: your yard and two they can get under your fence.
Speaker 1: How do you stop them from doing that? Because if
Speaker 1: they get under the fence and outside, guess what that
Speaker 1: poses a risk to the dog and oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: predators like foxes and raccoons they can also get under
Speaker 1: your fence. Dig Defense solves this problem. Dig Defense keep
