1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Welcomit, everybody to the Tuesday edition of the Clay Travis 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,239 Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show, coming to you live from ny See. 3 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:12,600 Speaker 1: You're here in New York City. Clay has quite about 4 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: this afternoon. Indeed, if mister Stephen A Smith, they are 5 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: going to be having a debate, and as we know, 6 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: we will not step back from debates these days. 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 2: We will not. 8 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,159 Speaker 1: In any way, in any way seed the fields to 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 1: the other side, although I think you guys are going 10 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 1: to have a pretty cordial but feisty exchange. But we've 11 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: got a lot of news to dive into here, and 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: we've got updates. Well. First of all, Trump is leaving 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: for the UK, so we've got some sound from the 14 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: President himself on a whole range of things Ukraine, talking 15 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: about Pam Bondy, a deal on TikTok, which I am 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: excited about. I have been the only I'm going to 17 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: say this, I'm the only consistent conservative I think on 18 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: TikTok the last few years where I'm just like, I 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: like it. We shouldn't get rid of it. 20 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 3: Now. 21 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: Everybody likes it. Now all of a sudden, it's fine, 22 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: Trump likes it. Everybody likes it because there's ways to 23 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: make it not now. I know you were saying all along, well, 24 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: as long as it's not a Chinese controlled spying operation, 25 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: then you like it too. But I've just been waiting 26 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: for this moment when there's a deal on TikTok. It 27 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: looks like there is. Trump also spoke on Gaza JD 28 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: Vance with some incredibly powerful comments about the people calling 29 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: for unity right now with the radical left. I think JD. 30 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: He was guest hosting Charlie Kirks Show yesterday. I think 31 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: JD absolutely nailed it. He's a very impressive guy, a 32 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: very eloquent speaker in his own right. And so we'll 33 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: get to that more on the Memphis crime crackdown that 34 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: may be coming, and then perhaps Clay because we're in 35 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: New York City. The New York City mayor race, which 36 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: I'm sad for our New York City based staff because 37 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: it is my belief that the mayor is going to 38 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: be Mom Dannie and it is almost a sure thing 39 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: at this point, which is pretty stunning, pretty outrageous. But 40 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: let's dive into a few things here. You know, I 41 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: actually want to start with this. So this is kind 42 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: of a longer clip because I wanted you to hear 43 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: the whole thing. But jd Vance when he was guest 44 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: hosting the Charlie Kirk program yesterday, jd Vance talking about 45 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: this because here's what I think is very frustrating for me, 46 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: for you, Clay, for a lot of people. Right now. 47 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: You had Charlie who was doing debate, discussion, created a 48 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: marketplace of ideas, a forum for ideas, and he was assassinated. 49 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: And now you have all these people who are saying, well, 50 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: we just need a marketplace of ideas or you know, 51 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: we just need to tone things down and get into exchange. Well, 52 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: hold on a second, we were doing that. It's the 53 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: other side that was not doing that is not willing 54 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: to do it. Even still, here is jd Vance. This 55 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: has cut nine with something I just think you all 56 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: really need to hear. 57 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 4: There is no unity with people who scream at children 58 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 4: over their parents' politics. There is no unity with someone 59 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 4: who lies about what Charlie Kirk said in order to 60 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 4: excuse his murder. There is no unity with someone who 61 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 4: harasses an innocent family the day after the father of 62 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 4: that family lost a dear friend. 63 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 5: There is no unity with the people who celebrate Charlie 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 5: Kirk's assassination, and there is no unity with the people 65 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 5: who fund these articles, who pay the salaries of these 66 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 5: terrorist sympathizers, who argue that Charlie Kirk, a loving husband 67 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 5: and father, deserved a shot to the neck because he 68 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 5: spoke words with which they disagree. Did you know that 69 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 5: the George Soros Open Society Foundation and the Ford Foundation, 70 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 5: the groups who funded that disgusting article justifying Charlie's death? 71 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 5: Do you know they benefit from generous treatment? They are 72 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 5: literally subsidized by you and me, the American taxpayer. 73 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 4: And how do they reward us by setting fire to 74 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 4: the house built by the American family over two hundred 75 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 4: and fifty years. I'm desperate for our country to be 76 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 4: united in condemnation of the actions and the ideas that 77 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 4: killed my friend. I want it so badly that I 78 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 4: will tell you a difficult truth. We can only have 79 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 4: it with people who acknowledge that political violence is unacceptable 80 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 4: and when we work to dismantle the institutions that promote 81 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 4: violence and terrorism in our own country. 82 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: I think Clay he absolutely nails it, but also that 83 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: both sides ism has switched from both sides to political 84 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 1: violence to both sides need to calm down and look 85 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: for a unity. No, it's this both sides thing is 86 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: not going to fly. 87 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 2: I just can't get past the fact that we have 88 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: an entire base of the left wing that has celebrated 89 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 2: this assassination. There's always going to be crazy people, There's 90 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: always going to be lunatics. But the idea that huge 91 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 2: portions of the Democrat base have taken to social media 92 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 2: have exalted across the entire internet in this assassination I 93 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: mentioned last week. I bet almost every single one of 94 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: you has someone in your larger friend or family network 95 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 2: who if you go on Facebook, you have seen somebody 96 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: and kind of been in disbelief that it could be happening. 97 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 2: And that's the part Buck that I can't get over, 98 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: that I can't get pasted, and frankly, that I think 99 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: is the most indefensible aspect of this at all. And 100 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 2: I just, I mean, just play along with me on this. 101 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 2: In this world, if Barack Obama had had an year 102 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 2: clipped by a bullet fired by a would be assassin, 103 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 2: if a month later somebody else had tried to kill him, 104 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 2: and then in the same roughly year period fourteen months, 105 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 2: the one of the top advocates for Barack Obama had 106 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: been assassinated at a free speech event. Is there any 107 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 2: way at all that the left would be saying, Hey, 108 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: we need for everybody to tone down the political violence. 109 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,119 Speaker 2: And then you toss in all of the Blue Sky celebrations, 110 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: all of the Twitter celebrations. They are banning people on 111 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 2: Reddit for condemning the assassination. Let me repeat that, on 112 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: some of these forums that are moderated on Reddit, they 113 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 2: are actually banning posters who are condemning the assassination. Remember 114 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 2: what happened after January sixth. They wouldn't let Trump have 115 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 2: an Etsy account or have a What's the Thing where 116 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 2: they do like the poster boards and Pinterest. They would 117 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 2: They banned him on every every social media platform. They 118 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: shut him down on Twitter, on Facebook, on all the Instagram, 119 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 2: all the big ones. Many of you out there they 120 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 2: restricted as well. I don't believe in free speech restrictions, 121 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: but just look at how the left responded to jan 122 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 2: six condemning wholeheartedly huge swaths of America as violent extremists. 123 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: And now after they engage in violent extremism, the topic is, oh, 124 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: we got to tone down the violence. Well, actually, why 125 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 2: don't you address your own house and the fact that 126 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: this is the logical consequence of calling a man Hitler 127 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 2: and all of his supporters Nazis. For a decade, this 128 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: guy wrote anti Nazi slogans, anti fascist slogans, pro trans 129 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: slogans on the bullets that he used to kill Charlie Kirk, 130 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 2: the casings. I'm sorry, I'm not willing to say we 131 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 2: have a mutuality of violence issues here. The left is 132 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: uniquely right now violent and driven by the rhetoric of 133 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: the Democrat Party. No one out there is calling mom 134 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: Donnie Hitler. Nobody is calling Chuck Schumer or Kamala Harris 135 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: or any of the leaders of the Democrat Party morons. Yes, 136 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: bad faith arguers, Yes, but that is focused on what 137 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: they're saying, not them as individuals. When you say that 138 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: someone is a violent extremist threat, you can't then say, 139 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: but we condemn the acts that are done to undertake 140 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 2: to try to remove a violent extremist. This is this 141 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 2: is just bs. 142 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, they've been making the case, the Democrats have 143 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: been making the case for years now that Trump, trump Ism, 144 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: MAGA are clear and present danger to the republic, are 145 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: the end of democracy? The you know, the jokes that 146 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 1: are made about Trump twenty twenty eight, they take very 147 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: seriously and they completely lose their minds over it. And 148 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: I think that finally, what we've seen is, you know, 149 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: people refer to normies, you know, people who aren't really 150 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: that involved in politics day to day. They with the 151 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 1: response to what happened to our friend, to the assassination 152 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: of our friend Charlie Kirk. They are seeing this and 153 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: coming away with the conclusion, you know, if you're a 154 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: fair minded person, you're just observing there's something really wrong 155 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: with the left in this country, and the Democrat Party 156 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: is the vessel of the left. The left really controls it. 157 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 2: After Trump was nearly killed, we came on this show 158 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: and we said, is the left going to dial down 159 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: the rhetoric in the temperature, And within a couple of 160 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: months the answer was no. They were right back to 161 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: Trump is hitler, Trump is a fascist. Democracy is going 162 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 2: to end if Trump is elected president. There's not going 163 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: to be an election in twenty twenty sixth. There's not 164 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: going to be an election in twenty twenty eight. They 165 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 2: went right back to the same arguments they were making 166 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 2: that I believe motivated the assassination attempts. My concern is 167 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 2: now that Charlie Kirk has actually been assassinated. Instead of 168 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 2: dialing the temperature down, I think the temperature has gotten 169 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 2: escalated even more. 170 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: Are people there are streamers, you know, there's this whole 171 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: world of Internet activity that quite honestly is like people 172 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: thirty in below that even you and I who are 173 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 1: Internet native in the sense that we both started like 174 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: I started doing digital radio before I was even doing 175 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: terrestrial radio, right, and then I work for a website 176 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: and you started a website, and. 177 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: We understand the Internet. We're not old guys that are like, 178 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 2: what's the dot com thing? 179 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: Right exactly? You know, We're not running around with our 180 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: Aol emails just kidding some of you. 181 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: I know of it. 182 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: Again, my mom has an Aol email. Don't worry. They're 183 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: still cool. But the there are corners of the Internet 184 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: discord Reddit that have become clearly centers of left wing 185 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: radicalization on some of these issues, where people are encouraging 186 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: each other and sharing certain things. And it's just interesting 187 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: to me as well, Clay, that during the Biden administration, 188 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: we recall there was the disinformation Czar positions try that 189 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: they and that they used Nina Jankowitz. Was that her name, yeah, yeah, 190 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: Soviet Mary Poppins, Yeah, I remember, Yeah, the efforts to 191 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: shut down disfavored speech. You mentioned what they did to Trump. 192 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: I mean they did this to an actual president. They 193 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: kicked him off of Stey. 194 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 2: He was in office, they would not allow him to communicate. 195 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: So I also think that there is a there's not 196 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: really a willingness to have rules in place for how 197 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: our side conducts itself to try to get accountability that 198 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: will always just be used against it. I'm reminded of 199 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: the quote from Children of Dune, which is not the 200 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: original Dune, but it's one of the follow ons. I 201 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: think it's Frank Herbert. It's when I am weak, I 202 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: demand freedom because it is according to your rules. When 203 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: I am strong, I demand obedience because it is according 204 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: to my rules. That's roughly the quote, and that's really 205 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: the way that the Democrats operate with all this stuff. 206 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: It's when they can get away with it, they censor, 207 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: they shut you down, they do all of this. But 208 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: when they've reached a point where they've gone way too 209 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: far and clearly there's a problem, they start saying, oh, 210 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: it's on all sides, and we need to just turn 211 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: down the temperature. And oh my gosh, you're censoring people. 212 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: I mean censoring people here, JD. This is fourteen. JD 213 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: went straight up said people celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder should 214 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 1: have their employers called. So this is from the vice 215 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: president of play ten America. 216 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: Deserved nine to eleven. Dude, what. 217 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 4: So when you see someone celebrating Charlie's murder, call them 218 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 4: out in hell, call their employer. We don't believe in 219 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 4: political violence, but we do believe in civility, and there 220 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 4: was no civility in the celebration of political assassination. 221 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: Anyway. So yeah, the reality here is the employers being 222 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: called Clay Democrats were fine with people being fired for 223 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: hand gestures that meant nothing. Macrets were fine, like, we've 224 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: gone through all of this and basically, now that they 225 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: don't have the power, Now that they don't have the 226 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: the power to do what they want to do anymore, 227 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: there's a problem. 228 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: I think again, we'll get into this, but they're panicked 229 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 2: a little bit because they recognize the ones that are 230 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 2: intelligent enough that they have a toxic, violent culture on 231 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 2: the left that they have created and they're trying to 232 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 2: still argue that this assassin was motivated by right wing politics, 233 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: and in fact it's working. We should get into this. 234 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 2: There's pulling out there that suggests again, you guys know, 235 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 2: because we try to be honest with you and share 236 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 2: the full scope of stories, you understand what all the 237 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 2: data reflects, what all the evidence is marshaled that this 238 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: was a crazy left winger. A lot of Democrats actually 239 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 2: believe that this was a Republican that assassinated Charlie Kirk. 240 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 2: Their lies actually have cogency and success. We'll dive into 241 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 2: that a little bit here in a minute. But it 242 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 2: was nearly two years ago Terris murdered more than twelve 243 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: hundred innocent Israelis, took two hundred and fifty hostages. Today 244 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: it seems as if the cries of those we lost 245 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: in their families have been drowned out by shouts of 246 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: anti Semitic hatred. It's almost as if the most brutal 247 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 2: attack on Jewish people since the Holocaust been completely forgotten. 248 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 2: As the world looks away, a light shines in the darkness. 249 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 2: A movement of love and support for the people of Israel, 250 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 2: called Flags of Fellowship.

He's gonna get 277 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 2: at least three or four percent of the vote this 278 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: time too. Let me just tell Corey Booker, you have 279 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 2: a zero percent chance of ever being elected president of 280 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 2: the United States. I think there's. 281 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: Somebody if you had to run, if you had to 282 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: run a campaign, Kamala or Corey Booker in twenty eight, 283 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: which one would you pick? 284 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 2: I think Kamala is actually a better out. 285 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: You're a Mattory book You're devotion to Kamala. This is crazy. 286 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: Corey Booker is angry and uh, that is what he 287 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 2: has decided. His brand is angry Senator. He's always outraged. 288 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 2: He's always yelling and screaming every Booker. Yeah, have you 289 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 2: not seen him on all the like he's been throwing 290 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: the history onic fits. He did the long debate, like 291 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: set a record on the Senate floor to me, what 292 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 2: just we just played with? Cash? Is Corey Booker's brand. 293 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: He's decided I think it's calculated decision. He's decided that 294 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 2: the best way to distinguish himself, and you're right, he 295 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 2: is running for president is to be the forceful opposition 296 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 2: to Trump. I think that's what he sees his lane as. 297 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: The problem is, when you're the forceful opposition to Trump, 298 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 2: you have to line up against a lot of things 299 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: that make sense. 300 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: And I feel like Democrats won't know what to do 301 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: with themselves when they wake up and they realize that 302 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: they're not running against Trump the next time. So they've 303 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: they've created this whole branding around how they want to 304 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,959 Speaker 1: oppose Trump. No, he's been He's gonna end up being 305 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: president for eight years. Yeah one, you couldn't stop him, 306 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:36,719 Speaker 1: So they're going to have to figure something else out 307 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: at some point. 308 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 2: This is about raising money and elevating yourself as a candidate. 309 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: I've said this, and it's going to be one of 310 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: the most stunning things to watch come twenty twenty seven. 311 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 2: As soon as the midterms are over, the pivot is 312 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 2: going to go from Trump is Hitler to Trump is 313 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 2: a uniquely talented candidate that they'll never be able to replace. 314 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 2: Get ready for it. 315 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: Look, I think we're entering an era of historic opportunity 316 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: for Maine investors. President trumpets administration are working to make 317 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: the markets free from Washington red tape and job killing regulations. 318 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: We will see substantial stock market gains in defense, healthcare, energy, manufacturing, 319 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: and more. We're talking hundreds of explosive opportunities as artificial 320 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: superintelligence transforms the economy. That here's the truth. Most Americans 321 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: will miss out on the biggest fortunes. I don't want 322 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: that to happen to you. That's why I launched a 323 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,959 Speaker 1: brand new financial intelligence project called Money and Power.

Also, we've got some updates from 337 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: FBI Director Patel. He's been making the rounds on Fox 338 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: News talking about the status of the investigation. But first 339 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: up here we have We've got a whole range of 340 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: Trump stuff. I'll start here with Pam Bondi. Now, Pam 341 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: Bondi has gotten a little bit of pushback from people 342 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: even on the right over some comments that she made. 343 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: Do we have a team? Do we have that where 344 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: she says we're going to go after hate speech? This 345 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: got she was on the Steven Miller's wife's podcast, Katie Katie, 346 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: Thank You, and it was on that podcast. Yeah, we 347 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: have that here, play play what she said on the podcast. 348 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: There's free speech and then there's hate speech, and there 349 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: is no place, especially now, especially after what happened to 350 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: Charlie in our society. 351 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 2: Do you see more law enforcement going after the these 352 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 2: groups who are using hate speech and putting cuffs on people, 353 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 2: so we show them that some action is better than 354 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 2: no action. We will absolutely target you, go after you 355 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 2: if you are targeting anyone with hate speech anything, And 356 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 2: that's across the aisle. 357 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: She means incitement to violence, which is a very specific thing. 358 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: I hope hate speech. There's not a hate speech exception 359 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: to the First Amendment. Now, this is where everyone seems 360 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: to get clay in this discussion. Not everyone, but people 361 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: seem to get maybe sometimes intentionally confused, or they conflate things. 362 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: It is one thing to say that you publicly state 363 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: something and your employer chooses to look you or I, yes, 364 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 1: we can't. We're here on the radio. There are things 365 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: we cannot say on the radio. There are words, for example, 366 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: we could not say without repercussions. We would get in 367 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: trouble because of the FCC. That's right, So we accept 368 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: that as part of because this is a time and 369 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: place restriction on our speech. But also when you're working 370 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 1: for a private employer, especially for an at will employee, 371 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: they can decide that you reflect poorly on them as 372 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: an employee and they can fire you. That is a 373 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 1: different thing. Then the government is going to go after 374 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: you and lock you up because you said things that 375 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: are very very mean or very very gross. Talking about 376 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: the hate speech thing, remember the left says that hate 377 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: speech is using the wrong pronouns for trends individuals, right, 378 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: So if we're going to get into this, we can't 379 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: even define, or rather, there is no working definition of 380 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: hate speech. It's just whatever the people in power don't like. 381 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 1: So I'm a little surprised that the AG said this. 382 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: I think that she I'm not actually even sure what 383 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: she thought she was saying with this. I'm confused by 384 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: where she's going with. 385 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 2: It, what we don't need. So when you take a 386 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 2: step back and hit it two different ways, One, Europe 387 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 2: has hate speech codes that they're trying to apply. Now 388 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 2: that's how you end up when a comedian gets off 389 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 2: an airplane flight in London having five police officers to 390 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 2: wait for him. If you remember that story, which wasn't 391 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 2: very long ago, that a British comedian was accused of 392 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 2: hate speech for addressing trans related issues, and we have 393 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: seen sixty minutes went into Germany with their cameras and 394 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 2: followed as people were arrested for things that they posted 395 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 2: on social media, which I believe were clearly political speech. 396 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: So I think she's wrong here. Two, and this is 397 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 2: where I'm not I'm not happy with this. It is 398 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 2: natural to respond emotionally to awful things. It is one 399 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 2: hundred percent natural. Anybody who listened to this show last 400 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 2: week knows that we were strongly and deeply emotionally impacted 401 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 2: by what happened to Charlie. But the Attorney General of 402 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 2: the United States cannot be in a position where he 403 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 2: or she is responding emotionally when it comes to putting 404 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 2: in place the principles of the law under which we 405 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 2: are all living. And so I'm disappointed by the way 406 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 2: that the Attorney General of the United States spoke here 407 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 2: now to your point, if she were inarticulately attempting to address, 408 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 2: which is again she's a lawyer, she should be more 409 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 2: articulate on this. If she were attempting to say, there 410 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 2: is a difference between call to action for violence incitement, 411 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 2: as you said, and political speech. That is true, you 412 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 2: can't go on and say to you or me or 413 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 2: we couldn't say this on the show. Hey, I disagree 414 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 2: with this political opinion, and you should kill that guy 415 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 2: for saying it. That's not protected speech. Death threats are 416 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: not protected speech. There is criminal element that moves towards incitement. 417 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,719 Speaker 2: And if she's trying to address that, she inarticulately did it. 418 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: And I think that's what I'm leaning towards. I think 419 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: that's what she was her intent was, So she has 420 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: to know that conservatives we've been trying to get rid 421 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: of the right has been trying to get rid of 422 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 1: hate speech os and for example, the fact that there 423 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: have been people arrested for putting skid marks on a 424 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 1: correct Pride flag on the road on the road. No, 425 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: that's insane, Okay, you can't. You can't do that, or 426 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,719 Speaker 1: that people would get arrested for burning like the trans flag. 427 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: You know, this is a discussion we had, we had recently, 428 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 1: so I think she was just saying something else, but 429 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: it didn't really come out very well. But Trump spoke. 430 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: This is what was making me think of this. Trump 431 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: spoke about it. This has cut four and also about 432 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: Cash Bettel. So let's hear what the president has to say. 433 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 6: First of all, I think that Pam Bondi has done 434 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 6: an unbelievable job and everybody agrees with that. And Cash, 435 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 6: you know, if you look at take a look at 436 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 6: what he did with respect to this horrible person that 437 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 6: he just captured. He did it in two days. It 438 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:57,199 Speaker 6: took other similar cases four days, five days, four years. 439 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 6: If you look at certain shooters. Now, I have confidence 440 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 6: that everybody in the administration, my administration, and a lot 441 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 6: of people are saying it, that's just me. It's so 442 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 6: far the best administration ever formed. 443 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 5: You know. 444 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: So the people who are saying that Patel is about 445 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: to director Patel is about to get the boot, including 446 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: I think Corey Booker said that he said Trump's gonna 447 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: leave you high and dry, or He's going to, you know, 448 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: kick you to the curve, something like that. Trump is 449 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: standing with his people and not backing down at all. 450 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 451 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 2: I think a lot of that criticism came out because, 452 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 2: to be fair, Cash tried to be overly informative on 453 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 2: social media about the people who were being taken into custody. 454 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 2: And there were two people, if I remember correctly, Buck 455 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: that were taken into custody that at least the way 456 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 2: that it was released was hey, we think we have 457 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 2: the shooter, and neither of those individuals were in fact 458 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 2: the shooter, and both were released. Now obviously they have 459 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 2: the shooter in custody. I think if Cash Patel could 460 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 2: go back, he would say, Hey, I wish I'd been 461 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: a little bit slower in the way that I posted 462 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 2: about some of these arrests. But I think his goal 463 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 2: was as the FBI director, to over communicate with people 464 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: so it didn't look like we were hiding the ball 465 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,199 Speaker 2: or to allow conspiracies to take root, and so I 466 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 2: think that was the intent. 467 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: I can also point to previous instances where the FBI 468 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 1: was delaying and it looked like delaying so that they 469 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: could politicize. It looked like they weren't releasing I'm not 470 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: talking about under this Trump administration, but you can go 471 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: back and think about, for example of Clay. I don't 472 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: know if you remember the Pulse nightclub shooting under the 473 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: I think it was the Obama administration. 474 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 2: This is going back quite a way. 475 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: Is the FBI released a transcript that the shooter who 476 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: had called in because he wanted everyone to know, and 477 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: he was saying things like I'm doing this for Allah, 478 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: I'm doing this for isis like very straightforward. The FBI 479 00:26:55,520 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 1: unilaterally decided to block stuff black stuff in the transcript, 480 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: and it was it was preposterous because we all could 481 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: play the fill in the blank game. We knew what 482 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 1: he was saying, right, we understood what was going on. 483 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: And there have been other cases as well where I 484 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: think the FBI was very Look, I'm the one that 485 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of a lot of you listening 486 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 1: are screaming about, is all the Russia collusion stuff instead 487 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: of being transparent and letting people know when they knew 488 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: or you know. The problem with that was they were 489 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: all I mean not they were all, but the FBI 490 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 1: was in on that whole scam. So there was just 491 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: a lack of faith. So I think the efforts at transparency, 492 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: putting information out sooner, that comes from a good place 493 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: for director Patel. But there were some missteps, perhaps in 494 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: the way the information was shared, because for example, we 495 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: all thought that they had the guy in custody and 496 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 1: they didn't, and that that probably shouldn't happen. 497 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 2: Also, I think he's seeing all of the lies that 498 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: are being spread on the left about the motivations of 499 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 2: this shooter. Maybe at the top of the next hour 500 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 2: we'll dive into some more of this. There is, i believe, 501 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 2: right now, a calculated attempt on the left in this 502 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 2: country because they recognize that normal people out there are saying, 503 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 2: wait a minute, there's a lot of people celebrating this murder, 504 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 2: and there is a lot of left wing violence in 505 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 2: the wake of the shooting at the Nashville school and 506 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 2: the wake of the shooting at the Minneapolis school. And 507 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: you can be a left wing malcatin, but his motivations 508 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 2: this shooter appears to have clearly been fueled by left 509 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 2: wing attacks on Charlie Kirk, on Donald Trump, on people 510 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 2: like you and me as Hitler and Nazis and fascists 511 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 2: and all of these things. And so I think they're 512 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 2: trying to intentionally confuse people as to where these motivations 513 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 2: are coming from. So I think the goal of Cash 514 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 2: Bettel and Dan Bongino is to try to get the 515 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: truth out. 516 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: Well that's I mean, that's absolutely what's going on. There's 517 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: an intentional effort by the media so that they can 518 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: avoid the idea iological accountability of because remember they were 519 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: they have been saying stuff CNN, The New York Times, 520 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: Washington Post, you know, the biggest Democrat aligned media outlets. 521 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: We don't really get cinteresson. We used to call them 522 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: mainstream media. We got rid of that because why do 523 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 1: we say their mainstream right, And then it was legacy media, 524 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: but that felt a little too exalted for them. We 525 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: don't have really a good term for I don't know, 526 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: maybe lib media. My point though is they have been 527 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: saying stuff Clay for years that if somebody really believed 528 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: the the gap between reading this stuff and thinking that 529 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: you need to take imminent action is far too small. 530 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: If somebody says that the president is a Nazi, the 531 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: White House is full of white supremacists, there's not going 532 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: to be another election, and they're going to be marching, 533 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: you know, they're going to be marching you off into 534 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: you know, some kind of camps because you're a Democrat. 535 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: Whatever the crazy stuff that they say, fascism, They use 536 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: the term fascism all the time. The people that say that, 537 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: by the way, I think, just have very little understanding 538 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: of what a fascistic society is like. One thing that's 539 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: not true in fascism is you get more famous and 540 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: more money in the media if you are bashing the 541 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: regime all the time, and that it's like a good 542 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: at least it was previously for them, a good strategy. 543 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: But I think that they the mains. This is the 544 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: big the big difference when they do the both sides 545 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 1: is thing the mainstream thinking among the Democrat Party when 546 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: it comes to Trump, Maga all of it is extreme 547 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: and delusional. And you can say on the right there 548 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: are people who have said nasty things here or there, 549 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: but they are fringe. They do not have they do 550 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: not have power. They are not you know in the UH. 551 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: You know, this the center of the decision making of 552 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,719 Speaker 1: the conservative or the right wing movement in this country. 553 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: And that's where there's just an there's just a hugely 554 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: obvious difference, and we won't. I was talking to Clay like, 555 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: do we want to play these guys? Are not there? 556 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,479 Speaker 1: These left wing streamers on Discord. So just so I'm 557 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: understand this, and now Discord is where he was having 558 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: the shooters Discord. Discord is a chat room, but it 559 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: goes simultaneously to video game playings. So my understanding, because 560 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: my boys are active is Discord. You can create group chats, 561 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: and the group chats on Discord are basically private message 562 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: boards that can be very large, or you could create 563 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: a Discord group chat for say your family and friends, 564 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: where everybody can communicate. My understanding is that he was 565 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: active in trans related Discord group chats, which some of 566 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,479 Speaker 1: which can be very substantial in scope. What is different is, 567 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: again this is me trying to dive into the Internet 568 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: here and explain differences. Reddit is basically an online message 569 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: board where everybody can see what is posted, and there 570 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: are all these different like this is like a private 571 00:31:58,640 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: I think, I think I might be thinking of it. 572 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 2: Twitch, Yeah, you're thinking of Twitch, which is a video 573 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 2: streaming service that largely is featuring people playing video games. 574 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: So people watch. This is amazing because I actually, during 575 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: co I admit this, I started playing some video games. 576 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 5: Again. 577 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: I kind of like Call of Duty. I like, but 578 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: the idea that I would sit there and watch somebody 579 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: else play video games is It's just that makes no 580 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: sense to me at all. 581 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 2: But this is a big Oh. 582 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: The communities that do this are huge online. 583 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: My boys love to watch video games be played. Now. 584 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 2: They would say, this is how you learn how to 585 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 2: do things on the games because these guys are super skilled, 586 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 2: whether it's at playing Madden FIFA or Roadblocks and Fortnite 587 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 2: and all these different things. And I asked my boys 588 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 2: about that, and they said, well, Dad, you watch a 589 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: lot of sports, and that's just other people playing sports. 590 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 2: Why is it weird to watch people play video games? 591 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 2: And I was like, you know, so interesting argument you 592 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 2: and ieneration we didn't have the ability to watch other 593 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 2: people play video games. This is actually an outgrowth. The 594 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 2: thing that was crazy to me that they would watch 595 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 2: is other kids opening presence. But this is clearly this 596 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 2: is their generation. 597 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: The hard left of gen Z. This is kind of 598 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: where they're on Discord and this Twitch thing, and they 599 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: have people that are have become very prominent with large 600 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: followings who are really bad dudes, and they're in this 601 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,719 Speaker 1: part of the internet, like Clay and I've never been 602 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: on Twitch. I've never been on Discord, I you know, 603 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: and I barely have ever heard the same for me, 604 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: I've ever used Reddit. I've had to come up and search. 605 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: But these other things, this is this is a place 606 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 1: where radicalism of the left is thrive, is thriving on 607 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: the Internet. And that's really what I think is. 608 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: Reddit is maybe the furthest left wing of all of 609 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 2: the social media sites on the Internet. And you might say, well, 610 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 2: why do I care? Reddit is one of the top 611 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 2: sources now for AI information. That sounds scary, but if 612 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 2: you're worried about what the algorithm is going to spin out, 613 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 2: an algorithm is only as good, and AI is only 614 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 2: as good as the information that is inputed and Reddit 615 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 2: is a toxic place when it comes to left wing 616 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: dominance of the conversation. Look, let me tell you there's 617 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 2: a home burglary about every thirty seconds in this country 618 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 2: on average, until the cops show up.
