Speaker 1: You're listening to The Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeart Radio app
Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcasts. Republican candidate for governor
Speaker 1: of New York Lee Zelden was attacked yesterday during a
Speaker 1: campaign rally. Thankfully, the attacker was quickly subdued. Zelden was unharmed,
Speaker 1: but to absolutely nobody's surprised, the man responsible was released
Speaker 1: from custody within hours of the attack. I'll have more
Speaker 1: on that in tonight's Holding Line. Welcome to hold on.
Speaker 1: I'm Buck Sexton. We're always being told that political violence
Speaker 1: comes from the right, and the Democrats live in this
Speaker 1: constant fear of all the violence from their political opponents
Speaker 1: and the people that disagree with them. But then when
Speaker 1: we actually see who the violence targets were at Kavanaugh,
Speaker 1: for example, conservative member of the Supreme Court, and now Leezelden.
Speaker 1: Here is video of Lee Zeldon and making a standard
Speaker 1: campaign speech. He was actually talking about bail reform and
Speaker 1: what a disaster it has been for this state of
Speaker 1: New York. Here is video of this assault on the stage.
Speaker 1: There's only one option. Look, this is completely unacceptable. Now,
Speaker 1: initially people were reporting on this as an assassination attempt.
Speaker 1: I don't think that that is accurate as to what
Speaker 1: happened here. It is an assault against the sitting member
Speaker 1: of Congress. It is a crime. It is a felony,
Speaker 1: and it's one that should be punished. Now the one
Speaker 1: of the changes in the severity of this as a
Speaker 1: criminal matter. Initially it was reported he had some kind
Speaker 1: of knife on him. Here we can actually show you
Speaker 1: the weapon he had in his hand. Now, this is,
Speaker 1: believe it or not, a self defense weapon. It's like
Speaker 1: a cat ears key chain ring and the pointy part
Speaker 1: of it is used you supposed to put your fingers
Speaker 1: through those holes and then essentially use it to punch,
Speaker 1: to strike somebody with. It's a little bit like brass knuckles,
Speaker 1: somewhat similar to a brass knuckle situational, though only on
Speaker 1: two knuckles. So it is a weapon and it is
Speaker 1: meant to hurt people. And this guy did have it
Speaker 1: on his hand when as you see here he is
Speaker 1: grabbing Lee Zelden. I remember Liezelden and his guy's a veterity,
Speaker 1: He's got a wife and kids, a family man. He's
Speaker 1: just trying to be a patriot. Trying to save his
Speaker 1: state from the just destruction of it by these idiot
Speaker 1: democrats like Kathy Hokel. And this is what he gets
Speaker 1: for his trouble, some lunatic wrestling him to the ground
Speaker 1: and trying to attack him. I mean, the whole thing
Speaker 1: is absurd. Lee Zelden tweeted shortly after the attack. His
Speaker 1: words as he tried to stab me a few hours
Speaker 1: ago were you're done. But several attendees quickly jumped into
Speaker 1: action and tackle the guy. Law enforcement was on the
Speaker 1: scene within minutes. The attacker will likely likely be instantly
Speaker 1: released under New York's laws by the way he was.
Speaker 1: And this is this is the part of it that
Speaker 1: has a policy matter, because I know what the Libs
Speaker 1: are gonna say, Oh do we even know if this
Speaker 1: guy's a leftist or a lib And you know, he's drunk,
Speaker 1: he's crazy, not representative of anything, certainly not an issue
Speaker 1: of whether or not Kathy Hokel was putting out rhetoric
Speaker 1: that was a bit inflammatory alongside with the schedule for
Speaker 1: lee Zelden. Hey, this guy's a danger to our democracy
Speaker 1: and doesn't care if kids die from gun violence. Here's
Speaker 1: where he's going to be tomorrow as not really the
Speaker 1: kind of thing that you would expect in a honorable
Speaker 1: political climate, political race. But let's focus on the crime
Speaker 1: issue for a second, rather the criminal justice component of this.
Speaker 1: Lee Zeldon's attacker was charged with a felony. I mean
Speaker 1: they say alleged attacker. That's a legal technicality. He's on video.
Speaker 1: The guy attacked him immediately released though, just as the congressman.
Speaker 1: Pretty good, so Liezelden, right right after being attacked, he's
Speaker 1: talking about bail reform laws and how destructive they are,
Speaker 1: right because it means that a judge can't say, hold
Speaker 1: on a second, we're gonna hold this guy. This person
Speaker 1: needs to spend a few days in jail. There are
Speaker 1: danger to the public right now, There's there's you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of heat around the issue. We're concerned
Speaker 1: about repeat offending. Let's see where we are here and
Speaker 1: have them be held for a few days. Right So,
Speaker 1: what what's happened now is that that has been largely
Speaker 1: taken out of the hands of judges for a whole
Speaker 1: range of things, but also just the whole criminal justice
Speaker 1: system is tilted toward letting people go. You commit a crime,
Speaker 1: you get you get process, you get let go, and
Speaker 1: then they go by the way before a judge for
Speaker 1: the trial, and they're going to get a light sentence
Speaker 1: because this is the way, this is the way the
Speaker 1: Libs have changed the whole process. So Zelden is talking
Speaker 1: about bail reform, is assaulted by a guy, makes a
Speaker 1: comment about how I bet that guy who just assaulted
Speaker 1: me is going to be out within a couple of hours.
Speaker 1: And he was out within a couple of hours. So
Speaker 1: it's really a perfect encapsulation of just another one of
Speaker 1: these moronic criminal justice leftist decisions that are out there.
Speaker 1: I mean, the way that they have been shaping and
Speaker 1: changing our whole criminal justice process is atrocious. And we
Speaker 1: see this all over the place. I mean here at
Speaker 1: New York City, for example, major crimes auto theft year
Speaker 1: over year, This is not stretching back for you know,
Speaker 1: a period of many years. Here, this happened rapidly. Forty
Speaker 1: six percent auto theft, forty nine percent grand larsity, eleven
Speaker 1: percent up in rapes, eighteen percent up in felony assault, burglary.
Speaker 1: Now they're saying that murders by gun or shootings are down.
Speaker 1: I think you every year in New York City like
Speaker 1: five percent, so pretty much at the same number. I mean,
Speaker 1: it might it likely will catch up to. And last
Speaker 1: year was a very high year, stretching back for the
Speaker 1: last decade in New York City. So the criminal justice
Speaker 1: system being changed in ways that suit the fashions and
Speaker 1: whims of Democrats was a bad thing. They were wrong.
Speaker 1: We see this in New York City. We see this
Speaker 1: all over the country. Starbucks, for example, closing it's sixteen
Speaker 1: stores in four states in DC. The states it's closing
Speaker 1: them in, actually the cities it's closing them in specifically Portland,
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Demo, San Francisco Democrats strongholds, Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: All very very blue. And is this surprising anybody? By
Speaker 1: the way, more closures are coming. We'll talk about that
Speaker 1: in a second. But what happened. Starbucks got worried it
Speaker 1: wasn't woke enough because a couple of guys who were
Speaker 1: black were asked why they weren't purchasing anything but sitting
Speaker 1: down in a Starbucks in Philadelphia a few years ago.
Speaker 1: So then, as just a knee jerk reaction, Starbucks says,
Speaker 1: you can now use our bathrooms, you can use our restaurant.
Speaker 1: You can sit down in a Starbucks not buy anything.
Speaker 1: That's our new policy. Well, now you've just turned your
Speaker 1: coffee shops into homeless shelters congratulation, and people don't actually
Speaker 1: want to be around that, and more to the point,
Speaker 1: it's dangerous for the staff. Here's the Starbucks CEO, Howard Schultz,
Speaker 1: explaining why these locations are closing and more are going
Speaker 1: to close. I don't have to spend too much time
Speaker 1: on what's going on in the country and how America
Speaker 1: has become unsafe, but you all read the press release
Speaker 1: of the last couple of days about the fact that
Speaker 1: we are beginning to close stores that are not unprofitable,
Speaker 1: but we're closing stores as a result of the co
Speaker 1: creation sessions that we've had almost sixty now twenty five
Speaker 1: in the sc and the rest in the field. We
Speaker 1: had one yesterday in San Antonio. But in all of
Speaker 1: those sessions, it has shocked me that one of the
Speaker 1: primary concerns that our retail partners have is their own
Speaker 1: personal seat. And then we heard the stories that go
Speaker 1: along with it about what happens in our bathrooms, the
Speaker 1: issue of mental illness, and the issues of homelessness, and
Speaker 1: the issues of crime and Starbucks is a window into America.
Speaker 1: We have stores in every community and we are facing
Speaker 1: things in which the stores were not built for. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thanks democrats ruining Starbucks. Now do love More on the
Speaker 1: attack on Congressman Lee's Eeldon with Nassau County Executive Bruce
Speaker 1: Blakeman coming up first. I want to talk to about
Speaker 1: prochecking your online data. A lot of companies promise your
Speaker 1: privacy is guaranteed, but we know that's not true. That's
Speaker 1: why you need a new privacy and cybersecurity tool called
Speaker 1: Secure spelled SEK. You are Secure is using proprietary encryption
Speaker 1: and offering secure instant messaging and email with secure all

Speaker 1: mind your data and never ask for your phone number.

Speaker 1: We'll be right back with more. Hold the line. Following
Speaker 1: the assault on New York gubernatorial candidate Congressman Lee Zelden,
Speaker 1: eleft is oddly silent about dangerous rhetoric they usually blame
Speaker 1: for these types of incidents. For example, Zelden's opponent, Governor
Speaker 1: Kathy Hokel, recently tweeted meet Lee Zelden the far right
Speaker 1: extremists that the Republicans just nominated for governor. Despite what
Speaker 1: he might try to sell you, the facts speak for themselves.
Speaker 1: He is dangerous or New York. In addition, in Hocal
Speaker 1: sent out an email to supporters yesterday notifying them of
Speaker 1: Zelvin's public schedule. M email read in part, Big Lie
Speaker 1: Lee kicks off statewide MAGA Republican bus tour joined by
Speaker 1: far right extremists Rolex rob Astrino and Trump's Chick fil
Speaker 1: A runner Andrew Giuliani. Wow, sounds pretty inflammatory to me.
Speaker 1: For more on minutes. Let's talk to Bruce Blakeman. He's
Speaker 1: the county executive for Nassau County out of Long Island,
Speaker 1: New York. Thanks so much for being one of the the Bruce,
Speaker 1: Thank you, Bob, appreciate it. So look, do you do
Speaker 1: you think that some of the hocal rhetoric tied to
Speaker 1: the schedule of the opponent here, Lezelden. You think it
Speaker 1: goes too far and across the line. I think it
Speaker 1: was irresponsible. I think it was disgraceful. Basically, she was
Speaker 1: putting up a roadmap of all the places that lez
Speaker 1: Elden was appearing campaign stops with his supporters and getting
Speaker 1: people to stalk him. And of course by doing that,
Speaker 1: if someone has a propensity for violence, that's the kind
Speaker 1: of thing that can set them off. It's almost like
Speaker 1: what Joe Biden is doing in Washington, DC by not
Speaker 1: saying anything against those people that protesting in front of
Speaker 1: the home, not the office, the home of Supreme Court Justices.
Speaker 1: So hoc tweeted this after the attack. My team has
Speaker 1: informed me about the incident at Leeselden's campaign event tonight.
Speaker 1: Relieved to hear that Congressman Zelden was not injured, that
Speaker 1: the suspect is in custody. I condemned the violent behavior
Speaker 1: and the strongest possible terms. It has no place in
Speaker 1: New York. I mean, I guess this is the right
Speaker 1: statement from HOCl But do you think there'll be any
Speaker 1: change in the way that her campaign tries to portray
Speaker 1: Lee Congressman Zelden as reckless and dangerous. I'm th on
Speaker 1: Lezelden for about twenty years. We're in neighboring counties. I'm
Speaker 1: the county executive about one point four million people. He's
Speaker 1: in the next county over, roughly the same size in
Speaker 1: Suffolk County. He's a great public official. He's done a
Speaker 1: great job in Congress. He was a state center of distinction.
Speaker 1: He's a war veteran, he's a patriot, and he's a gentleman.
Speaker 1: If anybody is acting improperly, it's Governor hokel By getting
Speaker 1: her supporters to stalk Leezelden and putting on social media
Speaker 1: basically inflammatory language, I think it's disgraceful and it shows
Speaker 1: that she can't win on the issues. Zelden has the issues,
Speaker 1: and the people are behind Zelden, So I think that
Speaker 1: it's absolutely disgraceful, and I think that she owes Leezelden
Speaker 1: more than an apology, she should put a state police
Speaker 1: detail on his campaign to protect him. So then there's
Speaker 1: just the incident itself, which I wanted to ask you about,
Speaker 1: because Bruce, it sends quite a message to a lot
Speaker 1: of folks, and I think it goes to the heart
Speaker 1: of one of the primary issues of the campaign in
Speaker 1: New York, and it's an issue's playing out across the
Speaker 1: country about our criminal justice system. I mean, how can
Speaker 1: they justify releasing a guy right away who just attacked
Speaker 1: a candidate for governor, a sitting congressman. He got out
Speaker 1: and released on his own recognizance after a couple hours.
Speaker 1: From what I understand, there is no better example of
Speaker 1: the lawlessness that is taking place in New York because
Speaker 1: of Governor Hokel and the Democrats and the Senate in
Speaker 1: the Assembly who passed laws to give criminals more rights
Speaker 1: than the victims. And in this case, the attack was
Speaker 1: with a weapon against a sitting United States congressman who
Speaker 1: is running for the highest office in New York State.
Speaker 1: And after the attack, the judge could not hold that
Speaker 1: defended on bail. They've taken away discretion. The judges, our
Speaker 1: cops are doing a great job. They're solving crimes, they're
Speaker 1: arresting people. But this term style justice, this revolving door
Speaker 1: of criminality that has been boisted upon the people of
Speaker 1: New York State by Governor Hogel and her confederates in
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is a disgrace. And I think that
Speaker 1: basically that's why Lee's Elden's gonna win because people have
Speaker 1: had enough in New York State. Jen just you know,
Speaker 1: getting into the differences in the campaigns and the parties
Speaker 1: right now. The bail reform law in New York the
Speaker 1: New York State Legislature passed got a lot of negative attention,
Speaker 1: I would argue, obviously rightly. So since it passed, it
Speaker 1: is HOCl still in support of this or are we
Speaker 1: seeing her in an effort to try to save the
Speaker 1: job she inherited because Cuomo was grabbing female subordinates too much.
Speaker 1: Is she actually now also in favor of reforming the
Speaker 1: bail reform law. Absolutely not, She's doubling down. And we
Speaker 1: have a district attorney in a county that's about seventeen
Speaker 1: miles from my county in Manhattan, who is not enforcing
Speaker 1: the law, and as governor, she has the right to
Speaker 1: remove that district attorney. We had an attack on a
Speaker 1: bodega owner just the other day, and that bodega owner
Speaker 1: was trying to protect himself from a criminal, and that
Speaker 1: criminal was attacking him with a knife, and luckily that
Speaker 1: bodega owner stabbed that criminal. And now the district attorney
Speaker 1: is not charging the criminal. He's charging the bodega owner
Speaker 1: who was trying to defend himself. Governor Hokel could remove
Speaker 1: that district attorney he has refused to enforce the law
Speaker 1: in New York City. Well, he finally dropped, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: he dropped the murder charge after all the outcry from
Speaker 1: people like you and me saying, what the heck are
Speaker 1: you doing? It was clear self defense. It was on video.
Speaker 1: Wasn't even like it was just an eyewitness testimony situation.
Speaker 1: They could watch the video. So after wrongfully charging murder,
Speaker 1: to your point, now that that da but Bragg the
Speaker 1: district attorney in New York is a nightmare. Everybody's known
Speaker 1: that from the very beginning when he came in effectively
Speaker 1: saying he wasn't going to enforce the law in a
Speaker 1: whole range of context. Wasn't going to be actually prosecuting people.
Speaker 1: I want to ask us, well, while we got you,
Speaker 1: because obviously you got your finger on the pole. So
Speaker 1: the people of Long Island huge, hugely important for the
Speaker 1: upcoming gubernatorial race. Can Lee win, can Congress and zeld
Speaker 1: and win the governor's mansion against Hochel in the state
Speaker 1: of New York even though they've got a big Democrat
Speaker 1: registration advantage, He's gonna win because I have talked with
Speaker 1: Democrats who are moderates who've told me that this year
Speaker 1: they are not voting Democrat. I think that there will
Speaker 1: be a real reduction in the number of Democrats to
Speaker 1: come out to vote. They may not vote resulting, but
Speaker 1: coming out to vote. I think that the independent voters
Speaker 1: are going to go two to one in Lee's favor,
Speaker 1: and I think the Republicans are energizing that they're going
Speaker 1: to come out. So if Lee wins big in the suburbs,
Speaker 1: and I predict he will, he will win big in
Speaker 1: the rural counties and that will overcome in New York City.
Speaker 1: And I think he only has to get about twenty
Speaker 1: percent of the vote in New York City and he
Speaker 1: can still win, So I believe Lee's Eldon will be
Speaker 1: the next governor. I'm gonna do everything in my power
Speaker 1: to make sure that happened. Bruce, appreciate you being win
Speaker 1: the s Thank you, sir. Thanks buff and one has
Speaker 1: become a familiar pattern since President Biden took office. The
Speaker 1: White House was forced to go into cleanup mode after
Speaker 1: he announced that he had cancer as part of the
Speaker 1: mess we've come to expect from this administration. We'll have
Speaker 1: more on that with the CEO of Getter, Jason Miller,
Speaker 1: when we come back. Right now, let me talk to
Speaker 1: you about a great deal from my friends at my
Speaker 1: Patriots Applied. If you needed more proof that we're going
Speaker 1: to have massive food shortages in the very near future,
Speaker 1: here it is. Many American farmers have announced they don't
Speaker 1: have enough fertilizer because of global supply chain breakdowns. As
Speaker 1: everybody knows, without fertilizer can't grow food. You can expect
Speaker 1: to see prolonged food shortages and sky high prices for
Speaker 1: the next year at least. What can you do to
Speaker 1: avoid this nightmare and protect your family? It's easy. Just
Speaker 1: visit prepare with Buck dot com at Prepare with buck
Speaker 1: dot com. You'll find a special offer. Get one hundred

Speaker 1: on each three month kit you require more food shortages
Speaker 1: are coming. That to prepare with Buck dot com. That's
Speaker 1: Prepare with Buck dot com. Jason Miller stops by when
Speaker 1: we come back. You guess what the first frost You
Speaker 1: know what was happening. It had to put on your
Speaker 1: windshoe wipers to get literally the will to slick off
Speaker 1: the window. That's why I and so damn any other
Speaker 1: people I grew up have cancer and why camp For
Speaker 1: the longest time, Delaware had the highest cancer rate in
Speaker 1: the nation. President Biden seemed to make an impromptu health
Speaker 1: announcement earlier this week during his speech on how his
Speaker 1: administration planned to take on climate change. Biden casually told
Speaker 1: the audience that he had cancer, and the White House
Speaker 1: immediately went into damage control. Not long after the speech
Speaker 1: wrapped up, Administration of Thistle said that in seventy nine
Speaker 1: year old Biden was referring to pass treatments of his
Speaker 1: cancer and that he wasn't trying to reference cancer in
Speaker 1: the present tense. Okay, it's not the first time, obviously
Speaker 1: that the president's mental health and awareness of the words
Speaker 1: coming out of his mouth became an issue of public
Speaker 1: debate and concern. Definitely not going to last either. So
Speaker 1: what does this White House do at this point? What
Speaker 1: is coming here? Let's ask former senior advisor to President
Speaker 1: Trump and the CEO of social media site Getter, Jason
Speaker 1: Miller platform I should say CEO of Getter j Miller, Jason,
Speaker 1: thanks so much, like so good to be back with you.
Speaker 1: At this point, I guess you just run for the hills.
Speaker 1: You put in your resignation, You go to MSNBC on
Speaker 1: your hands and knees, begging that they will hire you,
Speaker 1: maybe the Center for American Progress. But Joe Biden, whether
Speaker 1: it's declaring himself with cancer and then actually getting COVID
Speaker 1: and then doing a photo shoot with no mask and
Speaker 1: infecting potentially the cameraman then doing a photo shoot with
Speaker 1: the mask. It's a disaster. Yeah, I know you You
Speaker 1: were right there in it with it when it came
Speaker 1: to Donald Trump, so you know what it is to
Speaker 1: be in the middle of the fight for a White House.
Speaker 1: But you know, there was never a time when on
Speaker 1: the right we were saying I don't think Trump could
Speaker 1: fight anymore. I don't know if Trump can speak anymore.
Speaker 1: I mean, when you're looking at the Democrats around Joe
Speaker 1: Biden right now, whether it's Green Jean Pierre as the
Speaker 1: White House Press secretary, or some of the other top advisors,
Speaker 1: Ron Klaine, who some say is essentially the stealth president,
Speaker 1: it feels like they're out of talking points. And I
Speaker 1: just I've never seen this before, right, Like I disagreed
Speaker 1: with the Obama administration, but they were never out of
Speaker 1: talking points now and at this point, really it's the
Speaker 1: crazies here running Arkham Asylum, except and sadly, it's not
Speaker 1: something out of the Batman comic books. It's something it's
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred Pennsylvania. Only the crazy people are left in
Speaker 1: this White House. And I think the reason buck why
Speaker 1: you're not seeing a broader outcry, whether it be the
Speaker 1: mainstream media, whether it be from other Democrats, is because
Speaker 1: the Democrat establishment has already decided that they will move
Speaker 1: on from Joe Biden. In twenty twenty four, We've seen
Speaker 1: David Axelrod, Robert Reich, a number of other folks step
Speaker 1: forward and say Biden is just too old. I think
Speaker 1: the handwriting is on the wall here and they want
Speaker 1: to let them go peacefully. And they're trying to distract
Speaker 1: away from Biden's fumbles by pointing at Donald Trump. Well established.
Speaker 1: According to the President biden twenty twenty one health Summary,
Speaker 1: the President Biden did spend a good deal of time
Speaker 1: and the sun and his youth. This goes back to
Speaker 1: his kind of cancer announcement he made he had several
Speaker 1: localized non melanoma skin cancers removed with MOHS surgery MOS surgery.
Speaker 1: I've never I don't know what that is before he
Speaker 1: started his presidency. So, I mean, look, I know they're
Speaker 1: trying to do damage control here, but Biden claiming that
Speaker 1: he had some pretty minor I mean non melanoma means
Speaker 1: it's you know, I know plenty of people that have
Speaker 1: non melanomas or melanoma's the scary skin cancer. Having some
Speaker 1: precancerous moles removed from your back has nothing to do
Speaker 1: with claiming you got cancer from all the oil wells
Speaker 1: of your youth in Pennsylvania, right Or am I missing something? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're exactly right. One of the first roles of politics
Speaker 1: and damage controls when you're in a hole, quit digging.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, we know Joe Biden spent a lot
Speaker 1: of time in the sun in his younger days because
Speaker 1: he told us about being at the pool where the
Speaker 1: blonde hairs on his legs would come up and the
Speaker 1: kids would stroke them and make them flat. This is
Speaker 1: weirdo stuff. Go to YouTube. It's there Joe Biden in
Speaker 1: Cornpop and all the bad dudes from Wilmington back in
Speaker 1: the day. It is some crazy stuff. But here's the thing.
Speaker 1: This is about American security at this point. When you
Speaker 1: have a Vladimir Putin who sees this, we have Mashesian
Speaker 1: Ping who sees this, they immediately go into the mode
Speaker 1: of how are we going to take advantage of the
Speaker 1: United States because they do not have somebody sane and
Speaker 1: with their full capabilities at the wheel. And this is
Speaker 1: a real concern for America and the rest of the world.
Speaker 1: So there are numerous times that anyone can point to
Speaker 1: where the Biden word salad situation has required quite a cleanup.
Speaker 1: And sometimes I think it's just a matter of dishonesty
Speaker 1: and not even scrambled eggs up top Area's last September
Speaker 1: telling Jewish leaders that he remembered spending time at the
Speaker 1: Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. Watch this, So I
Speaker 1: remember spending time, you know, going to you know, the
Speaker 1: Tree of Life Synagogue speaking with them. Just as amazing
Speaker 1: these things are happening, happening in America. So the synagogue
Speaker 1: actually clarified when I asked about this he never visited
Speaker 1: the White House later said he was thinking about a
Speaker 1: phone call in twenty nineteen. But you know, his faux
Speaker 1: folksy thing shouldn't be a license to lie. But they
Speaker 1: got to do clean up on al Biden a lot, Jason.
Speaker 1: They do. And the other scary thing, Buck is that
Speaker 1: it's not as though there's a good alternative. Should Joe
Speaker 1: Biden decide, well, I'm not going to go out there anymore.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go ahead and resign from office. Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris could potentially be even worse. That is a very
Speaker 1: scary thought. She could actually be worse in this role.
Speaker 1: And so I think at this point by Democrats are
Speaker 1: in a bad shape and there's just no easy solution
Speaker 1: to this because Joe Biden is in the White House,
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is the VP, and there's a real crisis
Speaker 1: and confidence in American leadership. In my opinion, I wanted
Speaker 1: to switch gears with you for a second something else
Speaker 1: that you know about, which is federal investigations that touch
Speaker 1: on a White House. In the case of the Trump administration,
Speaker 1: it was the Russia collusion hoax that then led to
Speaker 1: though that was the Mullar probe and all of the
Speaker 1: lies told around that. But there's another federal investigation going
Speaker 1: on right now under the Biden administrations, watch into Hunter Biden.
Speaker 1: People are saying reporting that it is reaching a critical stage.
Speaker 1: A bunch of networks are saying that the federal probe
Speaker 1: and news tax affairs is reaching the critical stage. Can
Speaker 1: you see, and I'm gonna play this back for my
Speaker 1: buddy and coach Clay Travis on radio, can you see
Speaker 1: a situation where they actually press real federal criminal charges
Speaker 1: against Hunter Biden, even though let's just both assume we
Speaker 1: know that he's broken lots of federal laws, plenty of them.
Speaker 1: But do you think they'll actually bring criminal charges. I
Speaker 1: think there's a good chance. But Buck, what I'm really
Speaker 1: concerned about is they're not to be the right charges.
Speaker 1: I could see them opening up with some small tax issue,
Speaker 1: or maybe even going back to that firearm acquisition issue.
Speaker 1: But the real issue here, in my opinion, or the
Speaker 1: foreign lobbying contracts, or the foreign contracts that should have
Speaker 1: been registered under Farah that weren't. If big tech in
Speaker 1: the media had not colluded to shut down I'll talk
Speaker 1: about the Hunter Biden laptop in twenty twenty, we wouldn't
Speaker 1: be in this mess right now. These are the ramifications
Speaker 1: of big tech censorship, and so yes, do I want
Speaker 1: to see Hunter Biden held accountable for his mistakes. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: But the concern is that what advantages have folks, whether
Speaker 1: it be in Ukraine, whether it be in China. That's
Speaker 1: only the tip of the iceberg that we know about.
Speaker 1: What about all the other countries, Were Hunter or Frank
Speaker 1: or James other Biden family members had foreign business dealings.
Speaker 1: That's really a concern. But I'll tell you a buck
Speaker 1: the reason why I think we could actually see something
Speaker 1: because I do think that Democrats have moved on from
Speaker 1: Joe Biden and they might use this as part of
Speaker 1: the excuse to move Joe Biden out. Always appreciate it, Jason,
Speaker 1: thanks for being with us. Thank you, sir, yet another
Speaker 1: Primetime January six hearing in the books. When we come back,
Speaker 1: correspondent for the Federalist, Tristan Justice is going to analyze
Speaker 1: what actually happened. Right now, let's talking about the newest
Speaker 1: sponsor here to hold the line, Jace Medical. I mean,
Speaker 1: look at the current nationwide shortage of infant formula and
Speaker 1: ask yourself, what's next. Did you know that nearly one
Speaker 1: hundred percent of our nation's supply of antibiotics is produced
Speaker 1: outside the United States, mainly in China and India. If
Speaker 1: we can't control our own domestically produce baby formula, what
Speaker 1: about all the life saving medications produced overseas? Any experts
Speaker 1: predict that if there were a supply chain disruption in
Speaker 1: the pharmaceutical industry, pharmacies could run out of antibiotics in
Speaker 1: a matter of weeks. Thankfully, there's a new service to
Speaker 1: help you prepare for such an event. Jace case. Check
Speaker 1: this out, Okay. It's a pack of five different courses
Speaker 1: of antibiotics who can use to treat a long list
Speaker 1: of illnesses. Every household needs at least one Jace case.
Speaker 1: Go to Jace Medical dot com slash buck right now,
Speaker 1: use the code buck ten for ten dollars off your
Speaker 1: Jace case. That's code word buck ten for ten dollars
Speaker 1: off at Jason Medical dot com, slash buck, Jason Medical
Speaker 1: dot com, slash buck. We'll be right back with more.
Speaker 1: Hold the line. One disappointment, and that is the gutless
Speaker 1: members of that show trial committee, that Jay six committee
Speaker 1: didn't have the guts to come down here and testify
Speaker 1: an open court. The Bannon remains defiant after being convicted
Speaker 1: today of contempt charges. We're defying a congressional subpoena from
Speaker 1: the House committee investigating the January sixth insurrection at the
Speaker 1: US Capitol. I mean i'd discussed Western correspondent at the
Speaker 1: Federalist Tristan Justice talking about Justice Tristan, thanks so much, well,
Speaker 1: thank you for having me okay first, because there haven't
Speaker 1: been that much attention on this issue unless somebody has
Speaker 1: been glued to see an end for you know, the
Speaker 1: last six months, which this audience is not. So just
Speaker 1: tell everybody, how do we even get here? Like why
Speaker 1: is Steve Bannon even in criminal jeopardy? And obviously today
Speaker 1: at least for now convicted of a criminal offense. What happened? Well,
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty clear who the target of the
Speaker 1: January sixth Committee have been all along, and that is
Speaker 1: a former President Donald Trump, of course, and every other
Speaker 1: member of the administration. And so it's not a surprise
Speaker 1: that there is finally there's been a conviction of someone
Speaker 1: of a prime target of the committee. And of course
Speaker 1: Steve Bannon has always been a target among Democrats. So
Speaker 1: Steve Bannon is actually one of four members of the
Speaker 1: Trump administration who have been held in contemptive Congress, him
Speaker 1: Mark Meadows and two others. But he's actually the first
Speaker 1: to be convicted of contemptive Congress for refusing to come
Speaker 1: and sit down for a deposition and testify before the committee.
Speaker 1: And so that conviction just came out today, and I
Speaker 1: expect the committee is going to be pursuing convictions down
Speaker 1: the line. And do we have any sense of how
Speaker 1: much jail time he could get here for this. I
Speaker 1: mean I had my team on radio look into this,
Speaker 1: and they said, the last time somebody was convicted of
Speaker 1: lying to Congress, I think it was nineteen eighty three,
Speaker 1: and that person got six months in jail. Do we
Speaker 1: know what theoretically Steve Bannon could be facing here. I
Speaker 1: believe it's up to one to two years. But contemptive Congress.
Speaker 1: Congress has not been treating these charges seriously for decades now.
Speaker 1: I mean, remember when Eric Colter was held in contempting
Speaker 1: yet and faced no type of conviction on this, And
Speaker 1: so this is just a charge Congress doesn't treat seriously,
Speaker 1: and so these charges are exceedingly rare, and so I
Speaker 1: expect Bannon will face a year or two in prison.
Speaker 1: Here's Liz Cheney, by the way, speaking of the January
Speaker 1: sixth committee. She's saying that the evidence they have against
Speaker 1: Trump for the next year, we concludes attempting to have
Speaker 1: Mike Pence refused account of the electoral votes. Watch this one.
Speaker 1: This elect committee will examine President Trump's relentless effort on
Speaker 1: January sixth and in the days beforehand to pressure Vice
Speaker 1: President Pence to refuse to count lawful electoral votes. As
Speaker 1: a federal judge has indicated this likely violated two federal
Speaker 1: criminal statutes. President Trump had no factual basis for what
Speaker 1: he was doing, and he had been told it was illegal.
Speaker 1: Despite this, President Trump plotted with a lawyer named John
Speaker 1: Eastman and others to overturn the outcome of the election.
Speaker 1: On January sixth, you tweeted out on the January sixth
Speaker 1: Committee here JA six Committee playing up Trump's desire to
Speaker 1: go to the capital of some grand revelation. The President
Speaker 1: himself declared his intent to do so during his White
Speaker 1: House speech. Yeah, that's I don't even I'll be honest.
Speaker 1: I watched pretty much all of the first one or
Speaker 1: two of the j six hearings. I didn't even watch
Speaker 1: last night because I'm like, if there's something new, they'll
Speaker 1: tell us Trump Trump has. There's nothing new that I've
Speaker 1: seen him. I missing something. Well, there's been an interesting
Speaker 1: contradiction here with the January sixth Committee and how they've
Speaker 1: presented what Trump's actions were throughout all these different hearings.
Speaker 1: They spent the first several hearings trying to paint this
Speaker 1: president as an active insurrectionist who is doing everything he
Speaker 1: could to overthrow the US government, even violently hijacked the
Speaker 1: presidential limosine to drive himself to the capital on top
Speaker 1: of the US government. And yet last night's hearing was
Speaker 1: all about a president who was supposedly governing an absence,
Speaker 1: who did nothing but sit down and watch TV for
Speaker 1: three hours. They kept playing that number, one hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty seve minutes, one hundred eighty seven minutes. They got
Speaker 1: in headlines all across New York Times and the Associated Press. However,
Speaker 1: Trump actually in reality sent a series of tweets telling
Speaker 1: protesters to be peaceful, and actually published video that was
Speaker 1: suppressed on Twitter telling writers to go home. And so
Speaker 1: there's a contradiction in the narrative here at the January
Speaker 1: six painted an active insurrectionist president the first two hearings
Speaker 1: and then a president in absence and last night's hearing.
Speaker 1: But again they keep playing up this desire to go
Speaker 1: to the capital, some grand revelation that Trump was hell
Speaker 1: bent on going to the capitol. But that was something
Speaker 1: that Trump expressly stated in his speech at the White House.
Speaker 1: He said he wanted to go to the capital and
Speaker 1: that he was going to join all of the supporters
Speaker 1: and so this is just another made up bombshell that
Speaker 1: the Committee has just fabricated out of thin air. During
Speaker 1: the committee hearing, by the way, and a lot was
Speaker 1: made of this by the libs on Twitter and in
Speaker 1: different social media platforms. During the hearing. Representing a representative,
Speaker 1: Elaine Luria shared this video of Senator Josh Holly, they say,
Speaker 1: running from the Capitol after he was accused by a
Speaker 1: police officer of encouraging the attack. Watched this. Senator Holly's
Speaker 1: jester riled up the crowd and it bothered her greatly
Speaker 1: because he was doing it in a safe space, protected
Speaker 1: by the officers and the barriers. Later that day, Senator
Speaker 1: Holly fled after those protesters he helped to rile up
Speaker 1: stormed the Capitol see for yourself. I mean he left
Speaker 1: the building with all the other members of Congress who
Speaker 1: were there, right. And I published a calm on this today.
Speaker 1: That was really interesting moment in hearing because I highlighted
Speaker 1: several things. One highlighted that the Committee is now pivoting
Speaker 1: who it directs its smears too. It's not just Donald
Speaker 1: Trump and the members the administration that's been going after.
Speaker 1: Now they're going to go after any potential Republican rival
Speaker 1: who's a potential contender for the White House. And so
Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting that the committee was now
Speaker 1: pivoting towards an attack on Jodge Holley. But it also
Speaker 1: revealed how unserious this committee is about actually probing the
Speaker 1: capital security failures. I don't really see what singling out
Speaker 1: one Republican senator fleeing the Capitol has to do with
Speaker 1: the series of capital security failures facing the Capitol police.
Speaker 1: You know why they were half staff that day, why
Speaker 1: they were so ill trained, why they were ill equipped
Speaker 1: to deal with the mass demonstrations at happening at the
Speaker 1: Capitol that day. And yet this committee seems so unfocused
Speaker 1: on probing that legitimate security failures that day that now
Speaker 1: that they're actually going after individual members of Congress are
Speaker 1: doing what every single member of Congress was to do
Speaker 1: that day, which was evacuate or hunker down. Here's an
Speaker 1: Adam Kinsinger statement, I think he's still allegedly Republican on
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's part in January sixth. This is what this
Speaker 1: is what it actually looks like. Guys, put it up
Speaker 1: on the screen. Whatever your politics, whatever you think about
Speaker 1: the outcome of the election, We as Americans must all
Speaker 1: agree on this. Donald Trump's conduct on January six with
Speaker 1: a supreme violation of his oath of office and a
Speaker 1: complete dereliction of his duty to our nation. Ys asked,
Speaker 1: I mean, Tristan, do they want them to bring federal
Speaker 1: charges because I would just at this point, I just
Speaker 1: wanted to be like, put up or shut up, guys,
Speaker 1: like I'm really sick of all the whining and the
Speaker 1: our sacred democracy. Well, this is the Democrat's latest hoax.
Speaker 1: I mean, after the Russia Gate hoax failed, after Ukraine failed,
Speaker 1: after their first impeachment over this very issue failed. Now
Speaker 1: they did come up with this grand conspiracy that Donald
Speaker 1: Trump was orchestrating this dark insurrection on January sixth to
Speaker 1: take over to US government and execute a government Q.
Speaker 1: What in reality the president. What happened was the President
Speaker 1: came the speech at the White House, told his protesters
Speaker 1: there to protest peacefully, and then he went back and
Speaker 1: he started telling protesters to remain peaceful. Fifteen minutes after
Speaker 1: leaving the stage. He tweeted to stay peaceful multiple times
Speaker 1: that day. He instructed writers to go home after things
Speaker 1: had turned into turmoil in the Capitol, and so Democrats
Speaker 1: have contalcted this wild conspiracy, complete with summer show trial hearings,
Speaker 1: eight of them two hours each, and then they're going
Speaker 1: to come out with season two in September to amplify
Speaker 1: this grand conspiracy that's going to energize their base. And
Speaker 1: I don't know who they're trying to convince here, but
Speaker 1: this is really the last ditch attempt to try to
Speaker 1: smear Republicans as extremists complicit in the violence, after spending
Speaker 1: a year justifying violence themselves. Of course, while Americans are
Speaker 1: coping with more serious issues that are actually affecting himselves
Speaker 1: as opposed to a three hour riot that happened eighteen
Speaker 1: months ago. There's then the work on this. Thanks so much,
Speaker 1: appreciate you being with us. Thank you for having me this.
Speaker 1: It reminds us that they are in fact the wokest
Speaker 1: place on earth. Now we'll tell you about it in
Speaker 1: quick Hits Up next, Disney once again appeases the progressive left,
Speaker 1: and a climate alarmist demonizes farming, saying milk, meat, and
Speaker 1: eggs are indulgences we just cannot afford. Oh yes, it
Speaker 1: is time for all this and quick kits let's get
Speaker 1: to this. Disney is supposed to be the most American
Speaker 1: of all American companies. Right. I grew up watching Disney
Speaker 1: cartoons as a kid. People go to Disney as a family.
Speaker 1: It brings us all together. It's about fantasy and wonderment
Speaker 1: and excitement, and it's beautiful and it's fun. And oh
Speaker 1: it's now left winging crazy. Oh okay, I'm glad we've
Speaker 1: established that. That's good to know. Disney has now appeased
Speaker 1: yet again the left. Let's keep in mind recently there
Speaker 1: was that video leaked of the Disney head of Creative
Speaker 1: Content saying we need more pan sexual said this, we
Speaker 1: need more pan sexual cartoon characters for our kid, which
Speaker 1: every normal adult in America is like pan sexual? What?
Speaker 1: But this is the kind of thinking at the very
Speaker 1: top executive level of the creatives at Disney that goes on.
Speaker 1: So you know they're left wing, you know they have
Speaker 1: these biases. Disney decided to appease the left again. This
Speaker 1: time they have replaced the title of fairy godmothers or
Speaker 1: gender neutral apprentices at dress up boutiques and at its
Speaker 1: US theme parks in an effort to be inclusive cast
Speaker 1: members at Disney parks who help children transform into their
Speaker 1: favorite Disney characters with makeup and costumes were previously called
Speaker 1: fairy godmothers in training. Now they are called fairy Godmother's apprentices.
Speaker 1: Way not now, Now they're just called fairy Wait don't
Speaker 1: they have to be just called fairy apprentices? Yeah, it
Speaker 1: can't be, because if they're saying, get rid of Godmother, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're figuring this out too, folks. None
Speaker 1: of it makes any sense unless you're leftist who wants
Speaker 1: to destroy the culture and the things that bind us
Speaker 1: together and that make America America, in which case anything
Speaker 1: you do to destroy and confuse is good. This kind
Speaker 1: of explains a lot, doesn't it. Climate alarmists are among
Speaker 1: the most annoying people on the planet. It's just a fact.
Speaker 1: We all know it. You know. They're all telling you, hey,
Speaker 1: no more AC in the summertime because of all the
Speaker 1: CEO two that the AC creates. So you should just
Speaker 1: sweat through your clothing and eat some bugs. Yeah, fry
Speaker 1: up some grasshoppers and cockroaches. Sounds great to save the climate. Well,
Speaker 1: here's a climate alarmist who's telling you, speaking of eating bugs,
Speaker 1: you can't be eating milk and eggs and meat that
Speaker 1: is not allowed anymore because it's going to destroy the planet.
Speaker 1: Watch this one. Are you saying all animal farming and
Speaker 1: in your opinion, really needs to stop. Yes, it does,
Speaker 1: it really does. It's a bit like leaving fussil fields
Speaker 1: in the ground. Unless we do that, we've really got
Speaker 1: very little chance, indeed, of preventing this domino effect of
Speaker 1: system collapse right across Earth systems, which basically makes the
Speaker 1: planet uninhabitable. So eating meat and milk and eggs is
Speaker 1: an indulgence we cannot afford. We cannot afford the indulgence
Speaker 1: of eating meat and having eggs and milk unless we
Speaker 1: all eat bugs and soy and endless tofu, we're all
Speaker 1: going to die. These people are nuts, And there was
Speaker 1: like a hashtag science they're crazy, They're crazy. Different story here,
Speaker 1: a gay woman says, if she knew fighting for her
Speaker 1: rights as a lesbian would lead to the sexualization and
Speaker 1: a doctoration of children that's going on today, you never
Speaker 1: would have done it. Watch this so here it is
Speaker 1: the most unpopular opinion I'll ever do. I hope you
Speaker 1: guys to went and stitch and save or whatever. You
Speaker 1: need to do to this because it's going to get
Speaker 1: down fast. If I would have understood when I was
Speaker 1: younger that fighting for my rights as a lesbian would
Speaker 1: mean allowing children to drag shows, attaching child molesters to
Speaker 1: our community, and allowing children to change their sex before
Speaker 1: they even know what their favorite color is, I would
Speaker 1: have never done it. Never would have never done it,
Speaker 1: she says. Interesting, and then there's actually, we don't have
Speaker 1: time for this one because that's the end of the
Speaker 1: show already. That's it for hold the line. We got
Speaker 1: the Nosepin News with Bill O'Reilly. Next, Shield's High
